Forty-Five .|t^one^evefi-thirties The subspriptiions to this popular loan ■are SOW over fotty-five million dollars, and they continue to come in at the rate of about a million a day. The public is satisfied that there are no other invest ments sO profitable as IJ. S. securities.

While the G( ernment needs the people’s money, and pays for it liberally, it offers the highest possible consideration besides, and that is sa/eip. The Delaware and Hudson Canal Co. are paying the parties of whom they huy coal,’ two dollars and thirty cents per ton delivered in the cars. The Del aware, Lackawanna and Western Kail- road Company pay about two dollars & fifty cents, and can get as much as they Want. Outsiders can buy it for 3 dollars and fifty cents, but there is no means of transportation. Coal may be bought, of bringing it to but there is no way of New York. The companies just named control all the means of communication, and they will not carry coal for other parties. There are no monopolies in the country more odious and unjustifiable than these two, and every efibrt should be made to break them down- Some boys were playing marble in Fifth street.
