and piquing our curiosity. Whether we climb the cliffs
with him and peer over into the narrow bays which are be-
ing hollowed out by the trade surf, or wander through im-
penetrable forests, where the tops of the trees form a green
cloud overhead, or gaze down glens which are watered by
the clearest brooks, running through masses of palm and
banana, and all the rich variety of foliage, we are equally
delighted and amazed."-Athenæum.
MEMOIR OF CHARLES MAYNE YOUNG,

Tragedian. With Extracts from his Son's Journal.
By Julian Charles Young, M.A. With Portraits and
Sketches. 1 vol. crown 8vo, cloth, $2 25.

"Mr. Young is one of those pleasant diarists who, it is
to be feared, are rapidly becoming as extinct as the delight-
ful letter-writers of the past, age. In this budget of anec-
dotes, fables, and gossip, old and new, relative to Scott,
Moore, Chalmers, Coleridge, Wordsworth, Croker, Ma-
thews, the Third and Fourth Georges, Bowles, Beckford,
Lockhart. Wellington, Peel, Louis Napoleon, D'Orsay,
Dickens, Thackeray, Louis Blanc, Gibson, Constable, and
Stanfield (the list might be much extended), the reader
must be hard indeed to please who cannot find entertain-
ment."- Pall Mall Gazette.

"He has contrived to bring out a narrative often as detailed as Pepys, as versatile and lifelike as Boswell, and as full of recent personal interest as Crabb Robinson. It is not a barren record of facts, but a kindly chronicle of life and manners, and men and minds, running over the last half century."-Saturday Review.

"There is hardly a page of it which was not worth printing. There is hardly a line which has not some kind of interest attaching to it.... When we mention that the extracts from Mr. Young's own journal abound in choice anecdotes of Wordsworth, Coleridge, and Scott, and many other of the great men of the last generation with whom he was brought into personal contact, we have said enough to prove the interest of the work, even if it had less of the grace and vivacity which characterize it from beginning to end. We lay down the volume with regret, and shall return to it in many a leisure hour."-Guardian.

I have had in use for the past four months a Doty Washing Machine and Universal Wringer, and I am free to say that nothing has ever been more useful in my household. The finest as well as the coarsest fabrics are washed and wrung without the slightest injury. In my opinion, every housekeeper with these two articles will save in three months, in time and labor, more than their cost. I would not be without one at any price.-Cambridge Democrat.

By authority of the Board of Directors of the NEW YORK RAILWAY COMPANY, and in conformity with the terms of the Act of Incorporation in that respect, the undersigned Commissioners on Stock Subscriptions give public notice for and in behalf of the Directors, and of such Company, that Books of Subscription for the Capital Stock thereof will be opened on WEDNESDAY, the TWENTY-EIGHTH DAY OF JUNE instant, at the following places in this City, viz.:

At the Banking-House of

BANK OF THE METROPOLIS, No. 31 UNION SQ.
The Company is authorized to construct two Viaduct
Railways or branches through the City of New York, on
the east and west sides thereof, from a common starting-
point at or near Chambers Street, between Broadway and
Chatham Street; also across the Harlem River and
through Westchester County; with power to build addi-
tional lines of railway or branches, from time to time, in
any part of the City or Westchester County. The property
acquired by the Company is exempted from taxes and assess-
ments during the period allowed for the final completion of
the railway in this city. The Mayor, Aldermen, and Com-
monalty of New York are authorized and directed, with
the approval of the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund,
to subscribe for five millions of dollars of the Stock of the
Company, whenever one million of dollars thereof has
been subscribed for by private parties. THIS CONDI
TIONAL AMOUNT OF STOCK HAS BEEN
WHOLLY SUBSCRIBED FOR AND TAKEN BY
THE DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY. On the
completion of either of the lines of railway to the line of
Westchester County, the Supervisors of that County are
authorized to issue the bonds of the County to such
amount as the Supervisors shall deem expedient, to aid in
the construction and extension of the railway in and

7-30 GOLD LOAN

OF THE

Northern Pacific Railroad Co.

RAPID PROGRESS OF THE WORK.

The building of the Northern Pacific Railroad (begun July last), is being pushed forward with great energy from both extremities of the line. Several thousand men are employed in Minnesota and on the Pacific coast. The grade is nearly completed 266 miles westward from Lake Superior; trains are running over 130 miles of finished road, and track-laying is rapidly progressing towards the eastern border of Dakota. Including its purchase of the St. Paul & Pacific Road, the Northern Pacific Company now has 413 miles of completed road, and by September next this will be increased to at least 560.

A GOOD INVESTMENT. Jay Cooke & Co. are now selling, and unhesitatingly recommend, as a profitable and perfectly safe investment, the First Mortgage Land Grant Gold Bonds of the Northern Pacific Railroad Company. They have 30 years to run, bear Seven and Threetenths per cent. gold interest (more than 8 per cent. carrency) and are secured by first and only mortgage on the entire road and its equipments, and also, as fast as the road is completed, on

23,000 ACRES OF LAND to every mile of track, or 500 Acres for each $1,000 Bond. They are exempt from U. S. Tax: Principal and Interest are payable in Gold; Deno mirations: Coupons, $100 to $1,000; Registered, $100 to $10,000.

LANDS FOR BONDS. Northern Pacific 7-30's are at all times receivable at ten per cent. above par, in exchange or the Company's Lands, at their lowest cash price. This renders them practically Interest-bearing Land War

rants.

SINKING FUND. The proceeds of all sales of Lands are required to be devoted to the re-purchase and cancel lation of the First Mortgage Bonds of the Company. The Land Grant of the Road exceeds Fifty Million Acres. This immense Sinki g Fund will undoubtedly cancel the principal of the Company's bonded debt before it falls due. With their ample security and high rate of interest, there is no investment, accessible to the people, which is more profitable or safe.

EXCHANGING U. S. FIVE-TWENTIES. The success of the New Government 5 per cent. Loan will compel the early surrender of United States 6 per cents. Many holders of Five-Twenties are now exchanging them for Northern Pacific Seven-Thirties, thus realizing a handsome profit, and greatly increasing their yearly income.

OTHER SECURITIES. All marketable Stocks and Bonds will be received at their highest current price in exchange for Northern Pacific Seven-Thirties. Express charges on Money or Bonds received, and on Seven-Thirties sent in return, will be paid by the Financial Agents. Full information, maps, pamphlets, etc., can be obtained on application at any agency, or from the undersigned, For sale by
