The l.. & N. GObbles the Lo"is-
Vile, New Albany s. Chicago
Railroad.

The Cincinnati Gazette has the 1ol-
lowing dispatch from New Albany
Ind.
The Gazette correspondent met DIR
Standiford, President of the Louis
Vile q Nashville railroad, at LOUIS
Vile Saturday night. lie asked the
great railroad manager if it was true
that a number of heavy stockholders
in the Louisville q Nashville railroad
had made a pool and purchased the
controlling interest in the stock of the
Louisville, New Albany Il Chicago
railroad. DIR Stamford replied: "Not
exactly as a pool is generally under
stood. A purchase has been made OF
the controlling shares in the Louis
Vile, New Albany Il Chicago road by
myself, L. S. Veech, Of the Farmers
and Drovers Bank, Hon. Isaac Cald>
we'll and several other gentlemen in
Louisville, and our associates in New
York are John Jacob AstOr, Robert
T.. Kennedy, Henry F. Vale, Sam
mel Sloan and others, all, or nearly all,
original owners of the stock, and who
have heretofore been represented by
Mr. REYNOLDS, of Lafayette. All the
holders of the stock are friends Of the
Louisville &.s Nashville railroad, and
Of course will manage the road so as
TO give to the Louisville''& Nashville a
thirteen hours connection with Chi
cago." Thescorrespondent asked if
thepresent managementtof the board
under Mr.. Reynolds would be contin-
ued. In reply, Standiford said that
it would not, bnt that change would
soon be made, and it was his present
judgment that Il. .. Neech, OF LOUIS
vile, would be elected President.
"The road" said DR.. Standiford, evil
be greatly improved. twill hereaf-
ter, be operated with the enterprise and
liberality its great length and impor-
tant connections. West, North, and
Northwest, merit; and its management
hereafter will be greatly to the advan-
tage to both New Albany and Louis
vile. With this road Louisville will
hereafter ha 7e;a connecting line to Chi
cago and the Northwest that will be
of immense value.t .hersgeneral trade
and shipping interests. You may say
this to the people of Indiana, that
their longest and Oldest railroad will
soon take rank among the most enter
prising and best paying roads in the
State, and afford the business along its
line every facility it needs"

Mark Twain and Kirby.

Mark Twain is a heartless satlrlst
as well as a sort of wag. Not long
ago he write to the Hartford Courant,
making mouths at the Postmaster
General for insisting that the name of
a county should be used in addressing
Il letter. The other day, Thomas b.
Kirby, who will be remembered by
Nashvillians as the editor of the Chat
tanooga Times FIVE years ago, and
who is now Mr.. Keys Private Secre>
tary, replied to Mr.. Clemens personal
", upbraiding him in what was inten-
ded to be funny manner for the
crowl in the Courant. Now, Mr..
Clemens, addressing Kirby as "My
callow friend" drenches him with ink
and pours a whole quart of it down
his throat. 81 was talking to the dog,
NOT 10 the tail, says Mr.. Clemens.
"If stepped on this tail it was not to
call the tails attention to any thing,
hut only to direct the attention of the
main body of the animal. You per-
ceive that, being Private Secretary,
l was talking to the Department, not
to von-its irresponsible, inexpensive,
unnecessary appendage." Mr.. Glenn
ems adds that when he rings bell his
business isn't with the bell, but with
the owner of it. Mr.. Kirby Is not
the boot, but the boot jack; not the
molasses. but the bung of the barrel;
not the lightning, but the lightning
