 intempprancf. From J\' v. 11, to JMarcli 16, a little over 

 four monilis, seven hiinHrcri and sixteen vessels wore 

 wrecked and twenly-fiix hundred lives lost ; the chief

The Orfgon KMicnANTs. — The IJurlinston (Iowa) 

 Gizplte of PsVv. llih, contains a letter from Mr. M. W. 

 McC'irnesF. "f the expedition, dated Fort Laraniee, July 

 13. From tl.is itappenrs they had travelled 1.000 miles 

 without rain. The Inst (lOO miles of their journey they 

 found good roads, and strantie to say, ihcir cattle are 

 frrowingfat on the hmir tramp. The Sioux and (-heyenne 

 in''hns were all rnujd and inclined to be troublesome. 

 'J'i.fy had encountered, 400 miles from the foit, sonie 

 ypani'- '^' en roitio (rout Iowa to the Spanish Provinces. 

 witli :, mil carco of' Hour carried on mules. The price 

 of flci. was ,525 "er hundred ; sugar 5'- |>er pound ; cof- 

 '"e ^i rO per p( und. The distance ircm this I'ort to the 

 *S u li Fass" uf the mountains is 350 miles, and required 

 25 days to make it. They have probably reached their 

 di.'bi!;iation liy this time.

Frnm the Bn^tcm Post, Dec. 25 and 26. 



The abund.incti of capital seeking investint-nt in stocks has 

 been, if pfissihl-', increased dnrincilie past week, by dividends 

 dttlarec! and anticilIat^■d m mannlauiuhn^' and ladioad corpo- 

 rations. Tbi amount thus added to the floating cajiiiaj of i.ur 

 city is mure than half a millinn of dollars, inchiding those ex- 

 pected on or before January IfI. The intf-r.-st on United States 

 G, 5^ and 5 per cent, and ptate stocks held here and in onr vi- 

 cinity to a tiroat amount, wdl swell the total to nearly if not 

 quit " a mdMi.n. 



Of n-ir yreat railroad interest, the returns and dividends art: 

 grnerally satisfactory. Pome di^appointnur-ni was felt at the 

 dividend madi; hy Ihe Worcester Co., as 3^ nr 4 pLT cent, wa.^ 

 Confidently expected. The diicrtors, however, in view of the 

 requisition fnr a renewal of ih:- engines and other stock, thouj:ht 

 it best to reserve lar^'ely for depreciatii.n. The Maine makes 

 3 pf r cent. J Eastern 3i, Proviiience 3, Taunton 5, and New 

 Serif -rd 3.

 hnwever. hut a fraction of the business done in "thij slretl."
