Foreclosure OF the Second Mortgage.
from the Portland Pressl

The action OF the trustees OF the second
mortgage bondholders in petilioning the
court to give them possession of the Port
land and Ogdensburg railroad, appears to be
regarded as right and judicious. The road
is in arrears not only.to the mortgages, but to
its employees; and the property itself, not
pairs, is in such condition that large eI-
penditures must be at once incurred for pre-
serving it in a condition to be used AS a
highway of trade. There appeared 10 be nc
other way of saving the property and the
interests of the friends of the road than the
way to which resort has been had.

Gen. Fairchld was q brave soldier; he

approached the gentleman and asked about

subject he replied, "but you can say that
during my two weeks intercourse with the
senator at his home in Washington he re-
peatedly said to me that he is not candi

hopes that his name will not be seriously
mentioned IN such connection"
Gle must be a remarkably peculiar man.
who, beng in active public life, does not
want such position"
"ScnaOr Edmunds is remarkably pecu-
lar man, and he means it when he says he
does not want the office"
why should he not want SO honored a
position?
because he is satisfied with his work for
his State, and his State is satisfied with him
Besides he continues his practice as a lawyer
ard his business is large. He argues many
cases. Of course, cauuot say what action
he will take if the convention secs fit TO
nominate him. All | know is that he has
told me emphatically that lie has
no desire even to have his name mentioned
as a candidate for the Presidency"

'It comes but once year," ana the day was
quietly observed in this land of isolation,
just the same as though il were a civilized
country. Business was suspended at the
Agency, the cold weather forcing the people
to their homes, where the day was enjoyed
around their hre-sides. A number OF Glmi-
lies gave private trees on Christmas eve, and
the heart of each child was gladdcncd with
presents The usual school entertainment
was given at the Arapahoe schOOi ana from
nicely arranged tree were distributed to the
Indian children a choice lot OF GIFTS Each
scholar received II number OF presents, uud
went to camp happy on Christmas morning
for weeks vacation. At the Mennonite
Mission n tree was given the school ON Thurs
day evening, which was well attended by
both Indians ana whites. The exercises,
consisting of short declamations and singing
by the school childre,, were wen carried out
and the little ones acquitted themselves m.
bly,. AT the Cheyenne school the christmas
entertainment viii not occur until Friday eN-

Christmas passed quietly at tie Post There
were quite n number of strangers here, and
all seemed to have Quiet social time. No

An interesting game at ranling took place
here one day last week, in which n team,

Owing 10 the severe cold weather ana ice
