"Lorena.n
The young lady's Name was not
Lorena, however, nor Bertha, but
Ella. It is said that her vivacity and
sunny, witching ways after they part
ed, and never regained them, and
that she is now a sad, sickly woman,
past the prime Of life. She is the
wife of a Judge, and lived for many
years at Ironton, on the Ohio. When
last heard from, however, several
months ago, she was travelling in
Europe. Her proud and naughty
sister has long since passed over the
river, where "'tis heart to heart, in

erin law died only a few weeks ago.

The first Of the twocorps Of engineers
now out is about seventy-fve miles
south Of FL paso. Atthis point and
along the course Of the Rio Grande
some difficult surveying has been en-
countered, but the location has now
been definitely fixed and the rails are
being laid as fast as possible" "When
we have got to the other side Of that
difficult piece.n added Mr.. Croker,
"there is a clean stretch Of 900 miles

latest, we will have the pleasure Of

nounces that with the completion Of
THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC
next summer, they will be prepared
to carry wheat from San Francisco to
New Orleans and bring back emf
grants at rates which will discount
all prospective competition. The Pro-
jected extensions of the Southern Pa
cifc, likely to BE- built next year, are
as follows. An extension Of the Los
Angeles branch to San Diego from
Santa Ana, already determined on, to
anticipate the advent of the Atlantic
and Pacific and Jay Gould's Texas
Pacific lines, both of which will make
San Diego bay a western terminus;
the Yuma, Port Isabel and Gnaymas
Railroad, recently incorporated by
Crockcr, Stanfotd and Huntington, to
build q road from Yuma to Guymas,
there to connect with the Southern
Mexican system of railroads. the
capital stock of this road is said to be
Sl0,M0,000. There is a report that
the same company has secured I'M.
| portant railroad interests in Northern
Mexico. in connection with theil
road at Ell Paso, but what these are
the future will develop. The South
ern Pacific will soon be running
through cars from San Francisco to
New Orleans, and thereby opening
short and direct route between Sar
Francisco and Europe.

Twenty-four years ago the failure Of
the Ohio Trust Company, for two
millions Of dollars, caused a great
financial crash throughout this coun-
try. A suspension Of specie payments
followed very soon, and, with one or
two exceptions, every bank in the
country was included in this feature
Of the great panic. The recent failure
of the Mechanics National Bank, Of
Newark, N. j., wherein $2,OOO,0OO
have been stolen in one fell swoop, has
had but little effect upon the finances
ofthe country, and other failures of

immediate circle of capitalists directly
interested. The contrast between
then and now is worthy Of considera-
ton by all who deal in finances.

Confederate government, and tina
there is no fund to be found there o.
