The Nlcaraguan Canal

Washington. 28-The friends of the

doned the hope of passing it at the pros
ent session. The bill, as reported, pro-
vides for guarantee by the government
of interest on $75, 900, 900 of the COM
pany's honda, at per cent, for o Pc
Rod Of 20 years. This attachment Of q
guarantee clause to the Incorporation act
seems to be the main cause CT opposition
to the bill. 1t is now proposed to strike
out the guarantee clause and insert in
stead provision that the government
shall control the work of building the
canal and pay the company for whatever
use 1t may make of it on basis proper
tionate to the receipts of the canal for q
year prior to its occupation by the United
states, Captain Phelps, who is one of
the incorporates Of the canal company,
says that ne regards the political outlook
on the Istbmus st present as very serious,
and fesrs that as one of the results of the
construction of the Panama Canal by
De Lesseps, the United States may be
involved in war with France within g
few months.

The OOuntr1,s FINANCES.

New York, 29-Jesse Seligman, head
of the Seligmsn Bros. here, is re-
ported In q morning psper as saying
American finances we're never in bet
ter condition. The country is full of
money, and its prosperity now is genu-
Inc, not fictitious. We are conducting
our home Improvements with home
money. American credit stands at the
head of the list among foreign and home
capitalists. l have always had great
confidence in American investments.
My Investments arc all up to my expec-
tstions, and have been very fortunate. l
have not lost faith in the rapid extern
sions of railroads. They have done more
to build up the nation than you may
suppose. The resources of the country
have been brought into market and have
been opened up by those new roads.
Immigration has followed every line and
branch extended west and south. Stock
speculstlons are having less and
less power over actual monetary
and commercial conditions. The
finances of the country are in such &
position that l do not think Wall street
can create disturbances as it once did.
The violent fluctuations. in the vslue of
stocks do not upset the real stability of
our banks. We have proftted by the
experience Of 1873, aud are now prepared
for rainy day.
James Seligman said think with my
brother, that the general outlook of the
country IS very favorable TO large
spring business among banks, merchants,
manufacturers, farmers, and people. Our
correspondence reports more fayoTsbly.
and loans have been coming back TO US.
There is large amount Of home capital
looking for Investment.

To The Boys.

But few more days now, boys, when
school begins. You have all, no doubt,
had most pleasant vacation, and are
ready to improve the time that is most
precious to childhood. TO some, it may
be severe trial to begin school again; 10
go through what you term 'hard time"
aud thousand and one little things 20
worry you; hard lessons to prepare and
recite, and but little time for play. Hard
lessons can easily be overcome by a little
patience and perseverance. Make up your
minds at once that you can and will sur
mount all barriers, in the shape of lessons,
and you will find school hours the most
pleasant part of the day. Go to school
cheerfully, and in good humor, and you
will find that all you have to do can be
much easier accomplished than by being
in sulky, spitefnl mood. Study hard
and when play hour arrives you will
enjoy the brief time for play with a
keener relish than If you had missed your
lessons or been rude or disobedient to the
teacher. Always be polite, it costs moth
ing, and friends will be more willing to
assist you in ynur difficult studies; al ways
be prompt aud when study hour arrives
take your seat like little man. Never
be laggard. Boys who are laggards and
allow others to outstrip them but seldom
rake useful men. Always try and stand
at the head of your class, or as near as
possible. Improve every opportunity to
benefit yourselves in learning and when
you arrive at maturity you will look back
with pleasure, and not regret, that you
improved the golden opportunity of your
ives
