sCHEMING OF THE RAILROAD
KINGS

The rumor which was circulated 4
few DAYS ago that VANDERBILT had I'M
loaded the principal part OF his stock in
the New York Central railroad, and that
an alliance had been formed between
the combination OF Western railroads
controlled bv JAY GOULD, and known as
the Wabash Syndicate" and the New
York Central, is now more fully eN-
planned by what is stated to be an effort
on the part of Mr.. VANDERBILT to enter
into treaty with the wabash Sygdi-
cate" which will secure to the New
York Central the bulk OF the freight
brought to the Lakes by the Wabash
lines. In return for this, JAY GOULD
and his associates in the Syndi-
cate demand from Mr.. VANDERBILT
two hundred thousand shares of the
stock of the New York Central, to the
end that the Western roads may have
some voice in the management of the
line, which they propose to make their
outlet. Mr.. VANDERBILT hesitates to
sell the stock at the price otFered-l2O.
Hence the negotiations are reported to
be "oH. They will probably be re-
newed il the price of the stock be the
only difficulty in the way.
Mr.. HENDRIcKS states his positi on
thus: IL do not ask nomi-
nation rs a matter OF vindicatiOn.
When a party elects man to an
office il yindicates him, il such
thing is necessary in politics. If he
does not or cannot assume the office
aiteward, that is another matter. At
least it is so in my case. lii ask any
thing Of my countrymen it will be upon
my merits. shall support any man
whom my party will nominate. have
no exclusive claim on any nomination.
The people, not aSpirants, are the judges
in such matters. l regard Indiana as
a Democratic State, and would be dis
appointed ii any nominee OF the party
should TAIL to carry it. At any rate he
would receive all the assistance | could
give him.
THE Richmond Dispatch figures that
the Conservative, debt-paying vote OF
the State, when the negroes are left out
of the count, has a majority OF twenty
two thousand over the readjusters. Ii
states the case thus:
1t appears that the total vote cast for
the Readjusters proper was over 1000
less than the total vote east for the Con-
servatives. This includes negroes.
Now, deduct one-third from the Read
justers' vote for the negroes, and we have
these figures:
Conservative Debt-Payers sol
Realjusters proper

himself off in Pennsylvania, and last week in

nephew of Rev. Mr. Bush, and showing a
letter forged in the name of DR.. Hall, of

student and an agent for Smiths Bible Die

He is described as a tall young man, with

of Adrian, by the name of White, sometimes,
and Swift at others, pretsnds to be selling
Bible Dictionaries, and borrows money of
clergymen. lie uses the names Of minister's
and carries forged letters of recommendation.
He has been heard of in almost every county
in the State. He is a fraud of the worst kind.
He in every instance asks for 3d. In other
places he figures as billiard expert.

1T Is to be hoped that Gov. McClellan's
recommendation to the people to watch their
local taxation, as being more burdensome
than that of the State, and most likely to be
susceptible of reduction, will be observed by
all the townships, cities and counties. Dur
ing the past fifteen years the debts of the
counties, and cities of this State, (and of the
whole conutry) have wonderfully increased,
and it is time to make halt. This halt will
never be made by the average class of men
elected to office by parties, and it will only be
done when men are selected who are known
to be not only honest but competent to man
age their own private business successfully.

made him poor, although his wife and step
sons are in paratively good circumstances.
He moved in the best society, was highly
educated and accomplished man, and his
pleading non uult in one case and found guilty
in the second is a matter of great surprise.
DR.. Henry M. Cox, of Port Murray, was y
member OF the Finance Committee, and has
had IL indictments for fraud and forgery
found against bin, on three of which he has
been found guilty. Tie is young man who
received his diploma TO practice medicine
from Michigan University, and had one of the
largest practices in the county, When the
frauds we've discovered, his patients refused
to call him TO-, and he had lived very ex-
pensively, he is now utterly without MEANS
Pe takes his position with the most compos-
ure of all the convicted men, and laughs and
jokes about it.
John B. Sliker, who kept small canal
store at Rockport was given many profitable
contracts by the Ring, and has been convicted
on the two indictments for conspiracy found
against him.
Edward e. Bulgin, Cummins' intimate
friend and his go-between with the other
members of the Ring, was originally carpen
ter and builder. but made some money in
specuations, and bought largely of mineral
lands. These have become almost worthless,
and will not bring the amount of the mort
cages upon them, so that his wife and family
will be left without means. He has been con-
victed on two of the three indictments for con-
spiracy found against him.
John w. Dean, the first to turn States evil
dence, and who yet REMAINS untried, was once
merchant in Phillpsburg, worth at least
$780, 900, but was one of those good natured
men who Endorsed everybody's note, and is
now without dollar. He is yet young
man, and was for some years Secretary and
Treasurer of the Phillipsburg Agricultural
Works, which paid large dividends, but went
into bankruptcy. AS Chairman of the FL
nance Committee of the Beard of Freeholders
he used his opportunities to plumber the coun-
ty right and left, and has had seven indict-
ments found against him. He openly admits
his guilt, and has been very useful to the
State in informing against the others, but his
present position as informer is not pleasant
one and the feeling is largely against him.
He has no promises from the State that he
will escape punishment, but hopes against
hope that it may take light forms
The above are the principal men already
convicted in these trials, but there are several
men equally prominent who are to be tried
next week. Among these are ex State Sena-
tor Cornish, on an indictment to defraud, who
is preparing vigorous defense, and will be
defended by Counselor Robert s. Green, of
Elizabeth, and other prominent lawyers. Sew
eral other men besides Cornish are included
10 the same indictment, and strong effort
will be made to defeat the evidence and argu-
ments put forth by Prosecutor Harris and At
torney-Seneral Stockton, and thus make a
break in the regular verdicts of "guilty y

In full sympathy with this act of ma

their accustomed labors, and devote the
day to the public services OF religion, IN
their chosen ways-to the assembling of
famlies--to the strengthening of kindred

those temporal blessings which have fallen
from the Divine hand.
On that day may the stranger find wei

and comfort and consolation be brought

whom the Christening hand has been laid.
