WALL Street Rumors.

New YORK. Nov. 30.-WaI street was
rife Friday with rumors, the most notable
of which was the reported sale by Jay
Gould, Russell Sage and Cyrus w. Field to
William H. Vanderbilt and his party, of
$4,000 shares of Manhattan consolid ated
stock at price below the ruling quotation
of the shares in the street. One of the con-
ditions upon which Mr.. Vanderbilt pur.
chased the stock is that neither Gould, Sage
nor Field shall interfere with the proposed
Broadway underground railroad 1t ia
further stated in we'll informed circles that
Mr.. Gould, who retires from the firm of W.
E. Conner & Co., on Jan. |, had bought the
stock and bonds Of the Fordham avenue,

A Novel COurt-HOuse.

At Maybe Bay l left the steamer,
launched the Allegro once more, and
returned to my primitive mode of travel.
AS padded toward the beach, the lit
tie cove was very animated, with a
large fleet of fishing barges coming in
to the two wharves, and with groups of
men at work on the docks and about
the flakes and buildings scattered along
the terraced hills. And the cordial
hospitality of the agents of the fishing
firms added still more to the impression
that one was in civilization. 1t is well
to give here at least one of the peculiar
scenes connected with this part of the
coast. The county Judge, Mr.. O'Brien,
was holding court in a building on the
| hill, to administer justice then for the
entire year. The county courthouse is
small yacht, the Ruby, then riding at
anchor within the bar; she moves up
and down the coast during the sum-
| mer, and anchors at any place where
her presence may be required. The
Judge seems well fitted for the post, be-
ing dignitied and portly man of easy
going nature, who can wait any length
of time for fair wind, while his twink
ling eye seeks more for fun than for the
sternness of justice. As he was the
only officer, the court was organized
by his sitting down behind deal table,
and telling the people that they must
be silent excepting when called on to
plead their causes or give evidence.
One case was nominally the trial of
man for stealing an auger; but as the
Norman blood of the defendant and
plaintiff warmed to their national re-
creation of disputing, they became
tremulous with excitement, and turn
ing their backs to the court, passed
half-hour in mutual recrimination, in
the course of which was revealed the
real point at issue-a fight that had oc-
Cured in the past winter. Here their
wives came in and added the chorus of
their shrill testimony; and, taken alto
gether, the uproar was at last too much
for even the placid judge; he turned
them all out, and court adjourned for
cigar and rest. Once outside, the
litigants had the affair all over again in
their own way. And finally the case
could not be decided until the auger
could be produced. Another case was
charge of assault and battery with
knives, which the rougher characters
of the coast use too frequently instead
of their fists. A suit brought for libel
was announced by the husband of the
plaintiff as case of inflammation de
caractere." And so the proceedings of
this unique court continued their reve-
lation of some of the manners and
traits of the people.-C. II. Farmhana,

The President of the Sonata

New YORK, Nov. 30.-The Suns Wash
ington special says the Republican senators
are engaged in movement to elect either
Logan or Sherman as president of the sem
ate instead of Edmunds, because if the re.
suit of the presidential election in 1883 is
close or doubtful, Edmunds could rot
be relied upon to interpret the constitution
in the Republican interest. In announcing
the result last February he distinctly de-
clared that he did 80 without having any
Authority in law to declare any legal con.
clusion whatever" In other words, he
simply announced the contents of the re-
turns. In case of a dispute this would
throw the deciding power into the hands of

AUSTIN, Tex, Nov. o.-The state land
board has adopted an address to the gov
