God wills it so, and so it is
The pilgrims on the way,
Though weak and worn, more cheerful are
Than all the rest who stay.
And when at last, poor man, subdued,
Lies down TO death resigned,
May he not still be happier far
Than those he leaves behind?

it said over a year ago about the condition
of the coal properties. 1t is true the prices of coal
are higher now than they were then, but they are
at the expense of restricted output And to
the two Delawares Reading. and Central Of
NewJersey, a large tonnage is of equal importance
with a good price for the production. The recon-
structed Central of New-Jersey will be bonded at
the rate of nearly 100000 per mile, and sanguine
indeed must he be who thinks that subject to such
a debt, the proprietary interest stock is of much
value.
The Wisconsin stocks early were all higher. but
with the exception of Northwest preferred. the later
decline reduces their prices below those of a week

Of the time and the final prices Of a majority of the

this gain is eiNrely due to an advance in the early

speculation have been Lake shore which after sell
