It was reported on Sundaj that a syndicate of prominent capitalists of New York and Philadelphia had pur chased on Saturday a large block of stocks of the Northern Pacific rail Toad system from the Oregon and Transcontinental Company which controls them. The sale includes 80,000 shares each of Northern Pacific common and preferred stock, and 10,000 or 12,500 shares of Oregon Kail way -and Navigation" -stock. The prices at which the stocks were taken were not made public, but those mentioned most frequently are 35 for Northern Pacific preferred, 15 for common and 75 for Oregon Railway and Navigation. It is known that these figures have been considered in negotiations leading to thiB sale, but one of the members of the syndicate said that the prices finally agreed up on were considerably higher. The exact terms of the sale are not ascer tained. Members of the syndicate decline to state them, and were re luctant to admit that the transaction had been finished. Some officers of the Northern Pacific Company said the sale had been made, but they did not know the precise terms of agree ment It was acknowledged by all that stocks had been bought for an investment by the syndicate, and therefore would be withdrawn from the market It is also said that the sale has sup plied the Oregon and Transcontinen tal Company with all the money needed to surmount the present diffi culties and go on with its business. By the sale ample provision for pay ment of the company's liabilities for the next year was made, and recent rumors of a receivership which have been circulated industriously since the retirement of Henry Villard from the management will be silenced. The members of the syndicate, so far as their names have been learned, are Anthony J. Drexel of Philadelphia, with whom are associated C. B. Wright and one or two other friends there; DrexeL Morgan & Co., Cyrns W. Field, Jay Gould and Russell Sage of New York, and others promi nently .connected with the present management of the companies. It is understood that they have made some explicit or express agreement among themselves that the stock will not be offered for sale for a long time. It is hinted they have certain privileges as to their stock, but the nature of this part of the agreement is carefully concealed. The sale does not effect control by the Oregon and Transcon tinental Company of the Northern Pacific system, and no changes in the directories of any of the companies will be made at present in conse quence of it Jay Gould said, when asked about the matter, that he was not at liberty to speak about it "I left my office early on Saturday," he added, "and do not know that anything had. been done. The first I heard of it was a day or two ago, when I was asked if T would take an interest in a scheme to raise some money for the Oregon and Transcontinental Company. It seems that some loans of the company had been called for and that a consider able sum of money was to be pro Tided immediately. After a confer ' ence twith some of the friends of the oompany, I agreed to furnish my ' parfC and when I returned to my of - fice I sent my check for it The per sons'wbo called the loans were in formed that the company would pay the money on return of the collateral securities, but the leaders apparently did'notswant money. They certainly had not returned the securities when I started for home, I think they will be invited to take their securities to morrow." The Sun says: The pool in Vil lards seems to have been formed un der Jay Gould's guidance. He and BuBsell Sage are reported to have -'made a large loan to the Oregon! and Transcontinental Company on Saturday evening, and thus saved that concern from final collapse, its heavy indebtedness having reached maturity. The amount of the accom odation supplied is variously esti mated at from 2,000,000 to S6.000, 000. The correct figures will probab ly prove 81,500,000. The terms were satisfactory to the loaners, whose in- opposed to those of the borrowers. eeted in maintaining prices at the! stock exchange to allow any big ca- . tastrophe, and they, consequently, "were compelled to stretch a helping hand to the Oregon and Transconti nental company for the purpose of sustaining the general market They "unquestionably succeeded in their ef- forts, for the market closed quite strong with a substantial advance in all the ex-Villards. Valuable wood is the walnut Ai big log of it recently came across the : - ocean from France to New York that was twelve feet long and nine feet in diameter, and is said to hare weighed Ber2y twenty-two tons. If cost S100 ' to bring it to the United States, and $40 more to have it trucked a short distance to place of destination, keep ing six horses busy for thirty hours in the process. The log is said to be worth $2,000, or $6,000 when cut into veneers. Every farmer should have black walnut growing on his land. Ta wood always brings a high price, besides a supply of excellent nuts. Half-the burdens of life are caused by worrying, And more than half -our worrying is about the future. As we know nothing of the future, not "fcfen one Tiour beyond the present, but can only surmise and imagine, it follows that by far the greater part of sU'oar worrying is simply about im- f aginary things. Hence the folly of it The great difficulty, however, is that wft'canaot help it by any direct effort 'of thewilL There is only one cure for worry, and that is to work so hard and bo earnestly at our present task 7tm iohaye no tune for aught else. . --I .t iUCraoiKNATi, O.

Huntington's wealth to-day is prob ably something under $50,000,000. But he may be richer even than Van derbilt before he dies. Huntington is a New York man and is sixty-five years of age. He is very strong and carries his self-imposed burdens of affairs very easily. He seems to have a fair chance of living to be eighty. He has no children. His wife died a few months ago, and one young adopted daughter is the only family that remains to him. He may marry, butshould he not, it will be a very interesting question as to what be will do with all his wealth when he dies. Perhaps the question will puz zle Mr. Huntington more than any one else. Mr. Huntington spends a good deal of time in Washington, and always stops at Willard's. His habits are pimple, and he makes no display. When he wants to see a man he gen erally sends for him. His agent here is Mr.' SherrilL who attends carefully to his interests, which are alwajs be fore congress in one way or another. This year it is necessary to prevent the revocation of the Texas Pacific laud grant, which it is hoped may in some way be converted to the use and benefit of the California Southern Pacific. A good story is told of a Washington man whom Mr. Hunt ington desired to "see" about his rail way business when he was last here. The man in question had been pitch ing into Mr. Huntington's schemes, and was invited into his private par lor to talk over the matter. When he arrived there ho found other people present, and somebody looking very much like a stenographer sitting at a table over in a corner. So he began to talk about the physical geography of Southern Asia, and to his utter surprise, found that Mr. Huntington was perfectly at homo on the topic. They discussed it for an hour, and if Mr. Huntington did not do any rail road business that afternopn, he at least proved to his companions that he was a man of wide general in formation. Boston Herald. In 1876 Mr. Carlisle was for the first time a candidate for congress in the Kentucky district he now repre sents, and in a speech made by him atCynthiana,he is reported as saying: "I deny that the United States is a nation" It is a vicious system that has destroyed sovereign states and oppressed 9,000,000 people in the South. If a state has no right of se cession, she certainly has the right of revolution." These sentiments, says the Marysville Appeal, made Mr. Carlisle popular among the Confed erate Democrats, and hence his ad vancement in honor to the position of speaker, the office next to the presi dency. A large public meeting in Wyoming Territory has requested the president to appoint a woman as governor. If this is done will she be governor or governoress?
