The foUowing "Washington special
is given for what it is worth: It is
staled that last summer Henry Poor,
compiler ot the Railroad Manual, be
came satisfied that the Northern Pa
cific Railway Company was concealing
a large floating indebtedness, and that
its stock must suffer a heavy decline.
He formed a syndicate and sold stock
.short to the amount, it is stated, of
40,000 shares. The stock was above
SO and went below 4.0, and his profits
were in the neighborhood of $2,000,
fXX). Vhcn the facts came out Poor's
estimate of the indebtedness was
found to have been almost absolutely
correct Vhen the stock began to go
down it seemed to receivo mysterious
assistance in its downward tendency.
This is now believed to have been the
result of large sales by President
Villard, who, it is asserted, has prof
ited to lho extent of millions by pur
huiug the policy of Jay Gould in deal
ing with his own stockB. Many of
his friends have been entirely cleaned
out.
American Policy.
Confidential instructions which
wore sent from Washington last week
to the commanders of American men-of-war
cruising in the Chinese waters
wore such as were usually commu
nicated to officers for their guidance
in relation to the action of our squad
ron in case of actual hostilities oc
curring between Prance and China.
The rights of American merchants
doing business in China, which might
l)e taken or attacked by the French
forces were fully explained, and our
naval officers wore directed to see
that their rights were respected and
maintained by the French and Chi
nese commanders. Strict neutrality
is to be observed in all cases, no
matter in what direction the sympa
thies of the officers may be. The
quarrel is between China and France,
ami is none of our affair.
The New Company.
A New York special of the 3d says:
The shareholders of the Postal Tele
graph Company to-day ratified the
sale of their property to the Postal
telograpli and Cable Company. .LAY.
Mackav was present at the meeting,
and about $15,000,000 was voted in
favor of the sale. A meeting of the
stockholders of the new company
will be held next Thursday, for the
purpose of perfecting organization.
One of the first things done will be
the election of Mackay as president
The Willamette Farmer in speak
ing of the "returning pioneers" says:
AVe have made it a point to ask all
whom we have met what difference
they have found between farming in
Oregen and elsewhere. The common
answer is that farmers there are very
industrious and cannot afford to lose
a day's time from work. They also
say that our people spend more
money on living than eastern farmers
do; in other words, eastern farmers
are more economical of both time and
money. They also unite in saying
that our farming is lacking in diver
sity of crops and suffers from too
great dependence on specialties, such
as wheat-growing, which too many
depend on to the exclusion of all
other sources of income, and fanning
in Oregon has not yet reached a high
grade of effort, but must come up to
eastern examples before it can fairly
succeed. Tho experience of our re
turning pioneers will be valuable,
because they will compare methods
and learn a lesson of great value to
all. All concede that the regions they
visited have shown better system,
more diversified industry, greater suc
cess in some respects, and that this is
accomplished by unremitting labor
and strict economy with close man
agement. Fannie" writes to the "Waterbury
American to inquire "how short-girls'
walking-dresses shall be worn," and
that idle journal says in reply:
"Really, Fannie wo were not previ
ously aware that they should wear
their dresses differently from long
girls, and, in fact, we are somewhat
embarrassed as to how wo shall reply.
But if we were a short girl we think
wo should wear our dress with tho
ruffled portion down and next to our
well, just under our sealskin. If it
were new and pretty we should wear
it long enough to let that Jones girl,
who had her old one made over in tho
fall, see it, before we struck pa's 'kick'
for another. Wo should not only
wear it while walking, but we
shouldn't be so conventional as to
take it off when we wanted to sit
down. These are only suggestions,
Fannie, but if you want authority on
the subject you'd better write to the
telegraph editor."
Col. Woolford, an unreconstructed
Confederate and congressman-elect
from one of the mountain districts of
Kentucky, has arrived in Washing
ton. He is probably tho roughest
diamond that has ever received con
gressional setting since the Republic
was established, and in his own way
he is sure to make his mark. The
first thing ho did was to have his
room reduced in its furnishings to
jmlitary simplicity. He had the car
pet first taken off tho floor. The next
thing to go was the hair mattrass and
wire springs; he wanted a straw bed
on the slab, and a straw pillow. Tho
curtains were torn out of the win
dows, and then Gen. Frank Woolford
moved in his baggage and was ready
to see his friends.
General Sherman was not christ
ened until after ho was eighteen years
of age. The clergyman objected at
tho ceremony to christen Mm Will
iam Tecumseli, on the ground that
the second name was a heathen one.
Tho future general of the army then
eaid that the namo which his father
had given him was good enough for
him, and if the minister didn't care
1 3 go on with the ceremony, he would
try to struggle along through life un
christened. Tho clergyman relented.

A dispatch from the Austrian con-
1 i 11 L T1,. I,,,- Ol
bill at rv MHrumm uulcu 1a.cuiuci cru,
says letters received from Kordopan
announce that one-third of Hicks
Pasha's troops, including the English
officers, were killed in the recent bat
tle. The remaining two-thirds are
encamped at Rohad, receiving pro
visions from TakelL and asking for
reinforcements. Khartoum is re
ported tranquil.
"It is now learned," says the Wash
ington correspondent of the Balti
more Sun, "that the decision of tho
supreme court as to the unconstitu
tionality of the civil rights bill was
reached early in the last term, and
Justice Bradley was assigned to pre
pare the opinion. For private rea
sons he left the matter unattended to
for months, and the decision was not
ready for promulgation nntil tho be
ginning of this term. There prob
ably never was an opinion of the
court more mutually considered, and
the justices must have been thor
oughly convinced of th soundness
of their views, as it was not publicly
known that they had come to a con
clusion on the subject, and the decis
ion could have been reconsidered at
any time within the long period of
nearly a year which elapsed before
the opinion was prepared!"
The persistency with which men
who have graduated in crime cling to
their calling finds a striking illustra
tion in the case of Brockway, the
New York forger. This man has a
suspended sentence ot thirty years
hanging over him to be enforced in
case of his being detected again in
forgery. The sentence was suspended
on condition of his turning over
counterfeiters' plates and tools to the
officers of the law and giving cer
tain information. It wonld naturally
be supposed that if ho could not lead
an honest life he would select some
other branch of crime for his future
operations, the penalty of which was
not so definitely fixed. But he vent
ured again in the old business and
will now. doubtless, end his life in
the penitent iary, being over sixty
years old.
The much-mended Pinta has finally
started on her long trip around the
Horn to Alaska. She will receive her
battery on the Pacific coast provided
she is in condition to take it on board
when she gets there. The bravo

There is a young Indian at Winni

said to be worth the money.
