from the New York sun.
An official on the New York Gen.
trail remarked the other day, in the
course Of q talk about William K.
Vanderbilt, that that gentleman
had not paid very dear for his
speculative experience in Wall
street, though 81, ,O0O, 600 may ap-
pear to be q very large sum of
money. "By the way" the rail-
road man said, .the loss was not
up to that sum, though it was COM
monty reported to be. The effect
on Mr.. Vanderbilt WAS decldedly
beneficial. He simply dropped
out for good. Nobody can get him
into a venture of any nature now,
whether it tends toward . railroad
or not, and he passes his life in
social placidity. There is no rea-
son why he should speculate or 60
into any business, for with his
enormous wealth it is absolutely
impossible for him to spend his in
come. I doubt indeed, ifhe could
even give away his fortune inside
of ten years without absolutely
shoveling 1t into the street. For
such man business would bring
responsibilities withoutan shadow
of q reward. This is the lesson
that William &. Vanderbilt learned
and it was cheap at the price,"

OHIO s. MISSISSIPPI r. r..
One of the Oldest Western
ROads-Its Progress for
the Year.

In the general offices of the Ohio
& Mississippi Railway Is still preserv-
ed the second time table ever issued.
It is dated September, 1857, and shows
one passenger train day each way
between st. Louis and Cincinnati, ex-
cept Sundays, and the time was IL
hours. To-day the daylight limited
makes the run in less than 10, while
the service has grown to four trains
each way, every day in the year.
Seven thousand tons of new steel
rails were laid during the year in Or
der to maintain its reputation for a
good road-bed. New passenger sta
tons have been erected at different
points, and the old stations are being
rapidly replaced all along the line.
At Washington, shops, which are
among the most extensive in the Un-
tied States, have been completed
during the year at a cost Of over $500, :
600.
New passenger coaches, baggage
cars and postal cars have been added
to the equipment, including two extra
size baggage cars, capable of contain
ing the largest pieces Of theatrical
scenery.
The daylight limited train is one of
the best leaving st. Louis on any road;
1t is made up of new coaches, vesti-
buled throughout, and has Pullman
buffet parlor car attached. 1t makes
the run of $40 miles in less than ten
hours, including stops.
Daily lines of Pullman Vestibule
Buffet Sleeping Cars are run from St.
Louis to Cincinnati, Louisville, Wash

nection is made at its eastern termini

AIlen,s Recommeniiation.

Representative Allen, of Mis-
sissippi, was recently requested by
one OF his colored constituents to
give him a recommendation in
writing so that he could secure a
position as watchman in one of the
departments at Washington. AS
Mr.. Allen knew that the man was
worthy he at once complied with
the request. The certificate of
character was so warmly compli-
mentary that the Sambo was as
tonished when he read it. "Look
heah, Marse Allen" he said,
