The railroad war is causing no little un
easiness among the holders of railway
stocks and securities. This class of invest
ment, never ven reliable in the important
item of dividends, is subject to severe de
pression from ordinary competition, as well
as from the ruinous cutting" of rates be
tween rival lines. The war now in pro
gress between several of the leading rail
ways of the country, promises to surpass
in intensity all that have precceded it, and
the effect upon the prices of stocks, and the
prospective loss of dividends, are not pleas
ant to contemplate. To obtain the bulk of
th Centennial travel is the cause of the
present contest. A correspondent remarks :
-The different routes have advantages each
neculiar to itself. The Erie road, now in
the hands of a receiver, with stock at 14
and under no necessity of making a divi
dend, h-M the advantage afforded by this
condition of things. The Baltimore and
Ohio road has a short route and has never
watered it3 fctock, which is now worth near
lv 200. It rmvs tea per cent. The Pennsyl
vania Ceutraf runs over extensive beds of
coal and thus obtains cheap fuel. The
New York Central is a long route, but has
the advantage of being in perfect runnin
order. There w the necessity of payiu
eight per ceut. dividend, but this only ex
tends to Buffalo. The Lake Shore road is
not expected to pay any dividend under
present cii-cuuiatauce. This accounts for
the recent decline in its fetock, which has
touched 53, but is now 55.
Centennial Christian Homes.
The great number of visitors in Phil
adelphia, during the Centennial Exhibition,
necessitates the opening of private homes
for board and lodging. Many Christian
families, who arc unwilling to ojii their
doors to a promiscuous public, have ar
ranged a plan by which they give admission
to Christians and their friends. This will
le equally pleasant to Christian people
abroad who may not wish to be associated
with the great variety of characters brought
together m hotels and public boarding
houses. In order to have this select class the price
of board is generally much lower than pre
vails by other arrangements, varying from
." to $40 a week, and from 1 to $2.50
per day. Each family fixes its own price,
and receives its pay direct from its guest.
Those wishing to secure places under this
arrangement will please write as long be
forehand as possible to the

the Andes. It is well known in Peru,
where the dried leaves- are chewed by all
classes, as tobacco is here. The symptoms
of intoxication produced by it comprise
heightened temperature, quickened pulse,
strong desire for active locomotion, with
increased sense of strength and agility,
followed by apathy and sleep, from which
the patient awakes without debility or un

The Democratic press has repeatedly
charged that the monthly Treasury debt
statement was not an honest statement of
the Government's assets and liabilities.
Some months ago a Democratic member of
Congress introduced a resolution of in
quiry as to certain assets, and brought out
a statement that was not understood. Iut
in causing that statement to be made the
liability side was made up to show a
balance outside of the public debt state
ment. It was a question of contraction or
expansion in some minds, but as the
liabilitv side was not asked for, it was not
given. The Washington correspondent of
the New lork JJuuena, a wholly non
partisan journal, has prepared, from official
data, a table showing to a penny the
liabilities and assets of the Treasury for
Januarv -25. this vear. exclusive of any
balance in National bank depositaries which
is an absolute answer to any question that
may be asked from any source. The assets
and liabilities tally to a cent, the total be
ing S1J0,77S,043 24. The Washington
RcnvLUcan says it is the first and only full
balance sheet of the kind ever made up
. 1 1 rrtt
since the uovernment was louuueu. ine
only part cf it that appears in the public
debt statement is the J rcasurcr s general
account of coin and . currency, amounting
to SS2,S84,000. The only, point at issue,
and which called forth this extraordinary
statement, was the question whether the
legal tenders, specially deposited to redeem
national bank currency and as the five per
cent, redemption reserve, were scaled up
and pigeon-holed or used in tne regular
business of the Treasury. It is a fact that
these special deposits are not pigeon-holed,
and that they arc used iu the regular busi
ness of the Treasury ; but it is also a fact
that the currency balance has never been
so low that the legal tenders on hand for
offsetting these liabilities was less than the
full amount of the liabilites. This matter
was tested two years ago, when the paper
money in the Treasury was the lowest, and
there were about two millions above the
necessity. At the time the balance was
struck there were a little over 801,000,
000 of legal tender liabilities, and a little
over 877,000,000 legal tenders to meet
them. Of course these legal tender deposits
are not sealed up and sent to Washington
to await demands, or they would te on tlie
cars all the time, to the great expense of
the banks. Neither could they he sealed
un and held as separate packages, for the
I ' ill
pigeon holes of the vautis wouid be too
...a 1.1 11
small to hold them so, and tne trouble
would require a large appropriation from
1 1onrress. Thev are held as special deinxsits.
The' identical notes are not paid back, but
ollar for dollar of legal tenders is returned
for such deposits, and an excess of legal
teuders is alwaTs held to meet the possible
demand. In other words, the legal tenders
in the Treasury and sub-Treauries is never
less than the amount deposited. Ihis
tatcmcnt ought to settle that matter at
once and forever during a Bepub'iean
