States have
The people of the United States haVebeen
astounded for abirril Month!' past by aitic
, cession . of developments in relation to the;
affairs of the Erie Railway Company. For
,gigantie swindling, and with little pretense
at concealment, Somenf the transactions
which hive arrested public attention have
been altogether without parallel ; demon
strating.that a degree of demoralization ii
ists among the classes charged vtith the con
trol of fast monetary interests which may
well 1311 stockholders with amazement and
alarm. When sucli things are done, and
the offenders not. limply escape the - State',
Prison, but• have their scoundrelisms ap
plauded rirrevidence 'of suPerior tact and
ability, it is time for persons who have
moneys invested in' similar , enterprises' to
consider whether_ their interests , are in peril,
through "Similar causes ; or, if not now in
danger; how long it will be before' the con
tagion of rascality will attack their securi
ties.
This, condition of affairs Is bad enough-in
itself,' but it ii not the worst "aspect of She
case. The Courts applied to, from various
directions, to redress grievances of the most
formidable magnitude, have mainly been
found, altogether untrustworthy. No venal
lobby of a - legislative assembly ever gave
more conclusive tokens of sitamelesS deprav
ity. This conduct, superadded to what had
been simultaneously ,witnessed of the com
plicity bf Courts in the nett nalizatior
&mids t his gives the Wilds of all iliteught
ful citizens a - 3 shockAol:ll- which recovery
will not be speedy. - -
And now the managers of the Nei. York
Central Railway add to the prevailing un
rest and-suspicion by declaring aliteek div
idend of
..eighty per cent. lased upon
su.meil earnings applied to purposes of eon
' strnction, and to enhancement in the value
of the
,Property owned. But' Leif

the Legislature for permission to increase
its charges on passengers, distinctly on the
ground that the rites allowed were not re
munerative. 'Admitting -that VANDEBELLT'S
vigilant and economicalmanagement has re
sulted in large savings, it is not inferrable
that fifteen or eighteen millions have been
accumulated and applied in addition to' the
liberal dividends declared and paid.
Nor is it allogetb.erprudent to declarcjarge
stock dividends based on an adjudged ap
preciation of the vane of property. Real
estate was last to feel the upward move
ment consequent upon the expansion of the
currency and its tmconvertibility into coin,
and will he last to yield to the downward
tendency. Of course, there are pieces of
property that, owing to special causes, will
hold the advance attained, and even go
higher; but, in general, prices 'will recede
as the gold basis shall be approached.
Hence, it is palpable, that great enlarge
ment of stock, made to cover these assumed
appreciations, are always. dangerous, even
if they are not dishonest. '
Vespiarrwr and his family connec-.
tions are reputed to owu $15,400,000 in the
stock of the Central, and this fact is accept
ed as furnishing evidence of his entire good
faith•in the premises. But, it must be re-
membered that this enlargement of stock,
or what Is equivalent to an enlargement, is
made without authority of law, and under
conditions which naturally excite appre
bensiom
The letter from Mr.; OPAIILDINO, on the
constitutionality or legal-tenders, ;was re-
printed by us yesterday. We cannot agree
with a cotemporstry, in regarding it as an
invitation to the Court to pronounce against
those kris. lathe most, it was rather an
expression of the writer's conviction that
the expected decision would be adverse to
those enactments.. The members of that
Court have long since reached their own
conclasions, and no amount of commentary
in the public journals, in either direction,
can now have aught of influence n chang
ing them. •• ' '
Although the original Act f JanuarY,
1862iwas introduced by Hr. EirsiLnixu,the
bill itself is understood to have been pre.
pared by.the late Truro:we 13 xxvsse. It
is also worthy of rementbrance that, . w hu o

Let 13ot:race= or Soli= look well to
their laurels! The most successful dramat
ist of the day is ANDREW JOUNSON, who
now rings down the curtain upon a comedy
more artistically constructed, with livelier
contrasts In its points, more faithfully sus
tained and more startling in its conclusions,
than any of the productions of those well
known play-wrights. Their Presidential
competitor understands, too, the technicali
ties of theatrical effect, and groups about his
little work of art, at its first and last repre
sentation, all the striking accessories of his
own high otiice, a nation for hls audience,
actors of a world-wide infamy of name and
of guilt, the splendor of hle . own promises
and their characteristic conclusion, and•the
impressive spirit of the hour now chosen fOr

disposition to' acquire knowledge, and his
father, who was at that immensely
rich, deterniined to giro him a thorough
education, and for that purpose sent him to
the best schools and colleges the neighbor.

of his facilities Karl acquired several- lan
guages, and when hie education was pro

French, Italian, Russian and Spanish with
fluency. Shortly after coming, from college
he married one of the most beautiful ladies
in. St. Petersburg, and at once became the
envy of the whole city.. His father was a
