Sect's. ; A Vicnw or MESMJLCED CONFLUENCE.— A short time ago, a person representing him •elf to be a New Yorker and the owner of some fourteen thousand dollars worth of property called at the house of Mr. Reuben Smith, in Coleraiu township, and told the pitiful story of his being in search of a lost uncle, who resided, as he understood, in one of the border counties of Pennsylvania. As h had been travelling for & considerable time, his funds were out, —he was a "stranger in a strange land," and what was he to do? With tearful eyes he told bis lamentable tale, and thereby excited Mr. Smith's warmest sympathy. What was to be done? An idea seemed to strike the Untortunate stranger, and although painful in every particular, yet necessity compelled him to make the sacri fice. He had in his possession a box of jewelry which he had intended to present to his Uncle, all of which, valued at $250 00,) be would leave with Mr. Smith, as security for the loan of $ 125 00, for eight days. Pity ing his forlorn condition, a check for the amount was given him, and, with profuse thanks, he started on his way rejoicing. The eight days expiring, and the stranger not re turning. Mr. Smith brought the jewelry to town in order to ascertain its Talue, when it was made known to him that it was a very fine article of —block tin and copper, worth iu reality about $25 or S3O! As far as can be learned the stranger is still in search of his uncle. THE DIAMOND DICE ESS. — The old-Curiosity Shop, and reprinted pieces.

The Union Pacific Railroad Company have built a longer line of railroad is tbe last eighteen month* than iu ever built bj anj other compa ny in the same time, and they wUI continue the work with tbe same energy until it ia completed. The Western Division is being pushed rapidly eastward from Sacramenta by the Central Pacific Company of California, and it it expected that THE ENTIRE GRAND LINE to the Pacific will be open for bneinese ia 187#. Mure than one-third of tke Kurt lei already been ■lone, more than ore-tkird of tkr. vhole lint it note in mnniioj order, und more laborers are nam em ployed upon it than ever before . More than FORTY MILLION DOLLARS IN MONET have already been expended by the two powerful companies that have undertaken the enterprise, and there is no lack of funds for its most vigorous prosecution. When the I'aited State* Govern ment found it necessary to secure the oonstruc tion of tbe Union Pacific Railroad, to develop and protect its own interests, it gave the Companies authorised to build it such ample aid at should render its speedy completion beyond a doubt. The available means of the Union Pacific Rail road Company, derived from the Government and its own stockholders, may be briefly summed up as follows: I—UNITED STATES BONDS Having thirty years to run and bearing six per cent, currency interest at tbe rate of $16,000 per mi'efor 517 miles on the Plains: then at the rate of $48,000 per mile for 150 miles through the Rocky Mountains: thenee at the rate of $31,000 per mile for the remaining dsstanee, for which the United States takes a second lien at security. The interest on these bonds is paid by the United State* government, which also pays the company one-halt tbe amount of its bills in money for trans porting its freight, troops, mails, Ac. The re maining half of these bills is placed to the com pany's credit, and forms a sinking fund which may finally discharge tae whole amount ef this lien Tbe claims against the government since April of the current year amount to four and one half times this interest. 2.—FIRST MORTGAGE BOSDS. By iu charter the Company is permitted to is sue its own First Mortgage Bonds to the same amount as tbe bonds issued by the government, and no wore, and only ae tke road progresses. The Trustees for tbe bondholders are the Hon. E- D. Morgan, U. S. Senator from New Tork, and the Hon. Oakes Ames, Member of the U. S. House of Representatives, who are responsible for the de livery of these bonds to the Company in strict ac cordance with the terms of the law. 3.—THE LAND GRANT. The Union Pacific Railroad Company has a land grant or absolute donation trom the govern ment of 12,5C0 acres to the mile on tbe lire of the of the road, which will not be worth less than fit.CO per acre at the lowest valuation. 4.—THE CAPITAL STOCK. The authorised capital of the Union Pacific Railroad Company is $100,000,000, of which over 50.000,000,000 have been paid on the work already done. THE MEANS SUFFICIENT TO BUILD THE ROAD. Contract* for tbe entire work of tbe building 014 miles of first-class railroad west from Omaha, eomprisinr much of the most difficult mountain work, and embracing every expense except sur veying, have been made with responsible par ties (who have already finished over 500 miles), at the average rate of sixty-eight thousand and fifty-eight dollars ($65,058) per mile. This price includes all necessary shops for construction and repairs of ears, depots, stations and all other in cidental buildings, and also locomotives, passen ger. baggage, and freight cars, and other requisite rolling-stock, to an amount that shall not be less than $5,000 per mile. Allowing the cost of tbe remaining one hundred and eighty-six of tbe eleven hundred miles assumed to be built by the Pacific Company to be SOO,OOO per mile. THE TOTAL COST OF ELEVEN HUNDRED MILES WILL BE AS FOLLOWS: 914 miles, at $68,058 $62,205,012 18-3 miles at $90,000 16,740,000 Add discounts on bonds, surveys, Ac 4,500,000 Amount .$53,415,012 As the C. E. Bonds are equal to money, and the Company's own First Mortgage Bonds have a ready market, we have as the AVAILABLE CASH RESOURCES FOR BUILDING ELEVEN HUNDRED MILES: U. S. Bonds $29,328,000 First Mortgage Bonds 29,328,000 Capital stock paid in on the work now dene 5,369,750 Land Grant, 14,050,000 acres, at $1,50 per acre 22,120,000 Total $55,145,750 The company have ample facilities for supply ing any deficiency that may arise in means for construction. This may ha done wholly or in part by additional subscriptions to capital stock. Active inquiry has already been made for a portion of ihe*e lands, and arrangements are now proposed to offer a part of them for sale. While their whole value will not be available for some years to come, they will remain a very important source of revenue to the Company. The lands of the Illinois Central Railroad Company are sel ling at from $6 to sl2 per acre, and other land grant companies in the West are receiving equal prices for similar properties. FUTURE BUSINESS. The most skeptical have never expressed a doubt that when the Union Pacific Railroad is finished the immense business that must flow over it, a* the only railroad connecting the two grand divisions of tbe North American continent, will be one of the wonders of railway transportation; and as it will have no competilc: it can always charge remunerated rates. EARNINGS FROM WAY BUSINESS. Dutpg the quarter ending July 31, an average of 32j miles of tbe Union Pacific Railroad wu in operation. The Superintendent's Report shows the following result: EARNINGS. Passengers, Freight, Telegraph and Mails $723,755 54 Transportation of Contractor's Mate rials and Men Total $1,203,033 it EXPENSES. Fuel, Repairs, Offices, Conductors, Trains, Ac $395,530 92 NaT Ea*.*i*g9 to balance 807,598 03 Total -$1,203,038 95 The net operating expenses on tbe commercial business for the quarter were $237,966 50. The account for the COMMERCIAL BUSINESS stands as follows: Earnings for May, June and July $723,755 54 Expenses " " " 237,966 50 Net Profit ...$485,789 01 The amount of Bonds the Company cab issue oil 325 miles, at $16,000 per mile, is $5,200,000. In terest in gold, three months, at 6 per cent., on this sum, is $75,000; add 40 per cent, premium, to cor respond with currency earnings, is $100,200 — showing that the net earnings for this quarter were more than four times tke inter eel on the First Mortgage Bonds on this length of road. FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS, whose principal is so amply provided for, and whose interest is so thoroughly secured, must be classed'among the safest investment*. They pay SIX PER CENT. IN GOLD, and are" offered for the present at NINETY CENTS ON THE DOLLAR, and accrned interest at Six Per Cent, in Currency from July 1, Many parties are taking advantage of the pres ent high priee of Government stocks to exchange for these Bonds, which are over FIFTEEN PER CENT. CHEAPER, and, at the current rate of premium on gold pay OVER NINE PER CFNT. INTEREST.
