THIRrY IRON STEAMERS FOR CoNRy

Tor building thirty iron excursion steam

places from New York. It 10 said the
movement matured on Monday in the
completion Of articles of incorporation
for the organization of the "Iron Steam
ship Company" and the papers were to
oe hled yesterday In Freehold,N. J. The
capital stock OF the company is put at
$io,oO0, 600. II Is TO be divided into
100000 shares Of 500 each. Some of
the incorporaters have subscribed $780,
OOO each to the stock, and other sub
scriptions have been received amounting
to 100000. The incorporators are John
Roach, OF John Roach q Son, of the
Delaware River Iron Works and Ship
building Company; Charles II. Cramp,
Of William Cramp & Sons Philadelphia
Shipbuilding Company; Joseph c. Fer
guson, Philadelphia, and others.
The boats will be wholly of iron and
steel, each boat to be divided in not less
than twelve water-tisht compartments,
thus making them both fre-proof and

loaded. Their construction will be of

speed of twenty mills an hour. Eight
or nine of these boats are to be ready for
use next summer. This would indicate a

Money to Buy Seats and States.

"Colonel" Fair, one of the silver
kings of San Francisco, is announced
as a competitor against William
Sharon, owner of the Palace Hotel,
for the purchase of the seat in the
Senate from Nevada now held by
Sharon, whose lease expires on the
coming Sd of March with the exodus
of the Fraudulent Administration
The spectacle of two rich aspirants
for a political honor, which neither
deserves from any personal merit or
from any public service, bidding
against each other openly for votes,
is not edifying, but it is not excep-
tional. J. P. Jones, the other Sena-
tor from Nevada, holds his seat by
the same sort of tenure.
The Senate is now closely bal
anced, and these two votes may de-
eide important questions on a pinch.
They represent rotten borough,
which was brought into the Union
by a Republican Congress without
adequate population, solely to in
sure sufficient partisan majority for
political legislation. When admit
ted, the population of Nevada was
estimated at less than 10000; and
now 1T is returned by the new census
at $4,000, or less than one-fourtb
that of Rhode Island, with two SEN
ators and Representative.
The great corporations and stock gam
bers and Ring chiefs and money lend
ers, and specially protected in
terests, have now formed a pool with
hundreds of thousands in the hope of in
vesting it successfully in Indiana and
Ohio. John Welsh and other
Republican patriots in Philadelphia who
cant about religion and make moral
speeches to Sunday schools, but esteem
it Christian virtue to traffic in slaves
in Cuba, have recently held secret meet
ings TO raise money to buy votes.
They issued a circular "to procure
funds for the use of the Republican
party in the present campaign" which is
signed by several well-known names,
and declares sin some of the doubtful
States, where success is absolutely neces'
sary to our cause, the needful funds can
not be procured" Aud to add to the
force of this appeal, it is stated "large
sums are needed instantly, and to you,
as one of the moderate number to whom
such an appeal can be made, the com.
mittee look for prompt and liberal
| contribution.
