The last coupon paid on Virginia Mid.
land incomes was, we believe, that of .JuIv
1851. The lease of May, 1856, requires the
Richmond Il Danville to pay to the Virgin.
la Midland for 80 years the latter's fixed
charges aud any surplus net earnings over
hXed charges that may accrue in operating
the road. The prior lien bonds of the Vir-
GINA Midland amounted on September 80,
1880, to $1,635 900, interest on which
would be 1871 $50 annually. The S. ,9S7 900

Guiding rentals received. arc stated in Poor's
Manual as sos 900 in 1888, SG2G Gl3 in 1851,
and 1868 OH in 1885,
lt would seem from the above that as net
earnings are 50 nearly equal to fixed
charges, the Richmond 4 Danyile might be-
able to make good its guarantee Of 5 per
cent: on the general mortgage bonds issued
In exchange for the income bonds. without
lncurring much present loss. Since the
lease of the Virginia Midland was made,
however the Richmond and Danvillc stock has
been absorbed by the Richmond AMI West Point
Terminal Company, which owned in December.

How the change will affect the Richmond and

care for such things in its new departure on an

That he was not il proved by his age; but
if he was, what would that have to do

is citizen Of this country, is democrat

if he had heen guard At Andersonville, that
