Worcester Spn. New KaclßHd Nummary. BOSTON AND VICINITY. The will of Nathaniel Whiting of Watertown, disposing of an estate of SBOO,OOO, has been pre sented for probate at Cambi idge. One of the West end choirs at Boston in augnrated, this year, the pleasant custom of singing carols in the streets on Christmas night. The Boston city fathers feel especially com placent over the fact that their junketing ex penses, this year, have been only S3OOO, whereas they were $20,000 last year. Although Boston hasn’t enough Cochituate for her own needs, Newton has asked to use it for fire purposes, as the statute permits, the lake being in that town. It is stated that a party of Boston capitalists have formed a corner” in the hay market —in other words, have combined together to advance the price of hay. Very probable. Alen will speculate in anything, food for man or beast; and the greed of some of these land sharks is marvelous. The Boston Red Stocking base ball nine will consist, next year, of McVey, catcher, Spauld ing, pitcher; Gould, first base; Barnes, second base; G. Wright, short stop: Schafer, third base; Leonard, left field; H. Wright, center field; and F. Rogers, right field. This is a very strong baningas well as fielding nine. At a meeting of the stockholders of the Washington mills the following officers were chosen: Directors, George R. Minot, John A. Blanchard, E. R. Mudge. Peter T. Homer, Joseph Jashn, Charles L. Harding, Henry Saltonstall, Charles U. Cotti ng, Chas. W. Freeland; Treas urer, Henry F. Coe; Clerk, George C. Herbert. Earnings for year, $402,000; less bad debts, $8000; machinery, $52,000; two dividends, $165,000; laid up, $177,000. The case ot Wm. A. Glover, charged with being accessory befote the iact in the Boyiston bank robbery, was expected to come up before Judge Wells, on the 29tb, on a habeas corpus It appears, however, that though this was the day originally fixed, it was afterward changed to to-day. There is a stature that a party must be tried within six mouths after indictment, and under this a discharge from custody is de manded. MIDDLESEX COUNTY. Hon. Tappan^Wt-ntwoith has decided to i on test the scat ol Wm. H. Loughlin, who holds a certificate of election as a representative liom ward three in Lowell. Loughlin was the dem ocratic and labor reform nominee, and his plu rality over Mr. Wentworth was only five. It is charged that some of Loughlin's friends from another ward lent him a friendly hand by going into ward three and voting'on unchecked names. BRISTOL COUNTY. Mr. Ladd, the popular superintendent of the New Bedford and Taunton railroad, was hap pilv surprised on Saturday evening by the pres entation of a gold watch'and chain valued at $259, the gift of men of the rail. Fire caught in a bedroom in a tenement house in Fall River, on Sunday night, and was not extinguished until John Lahey, who occu pied the room, was burned to death. The tire, probably, was caused by smoking while in bed. The large bequest which Sylvia Ann Howland left in behalf of “liberal education” in New Bedford has already become a bone of conten tion. It was proposed to paper a school room at its expense, but the city solicitor, whose opinion was demanded, said no, and went further, de claring that “liberal education'* must be con strued in the old technical sense of “college ed ucation.” PLYMOUTH COUNTY. The young German in Middiclmro who has applied for a patent for the discovery of perpet ual motion, says he had the new discovery brought clearly to his mind through the agency of a dream. Stephen N. Gifford of Duxbury, the long-time clerk of the senate, received from his friends on Christmas eve an elegant tea-service, as a token of their appreciation of his services in estab lishing the railroad communication from Dux bury. HAMEDEN COUNTY. Wm. Stone of Holland had his wrist nearly sawn off In a circular saw at Union, Ct., on Fri day, and soon died of tire wound. At Springfield, durine tile year just closing, the total number of men connected with the fire department was 157. The expenses have been $21,875. More alarm boxes and bells and let ter arrangements for horses were desired. Twenty-three fires occurred during the year. The Springfield treasurer's report gives the amount of appropriations for the year as S2W,- 404.96; appropriations and receipts, $56,440.54; expenditures, $330,053.03; received for state aid, $3,582.75; expended,*B,sl2.ls; received on Cen tral street school house, $7050: expended, $27,- 840; for rhe school house lot, $1000; expended for state tax, $356.25; for county tax, $15,526.- 80; for widening North Main 5treet,59,525.70; non-resident bank tax, $19,761.01. The Springdeld superintendent of Mre^s re ports the amount of business done in his depart ment: 8433 yards ot trap rock have been de livered in the city at a cost of $19,755; 83114 yards were spread on the streets at an expense of $5,712.40, the remainder being sold to the gas light and street railway companies; 1858 tons of stone were used in paving gutters, less 648 tons sold the street railway company, at a cost of $4535, including sand, caning," etc; 4552 square yards were paved, 19,000 lineal feet of granite curbing were laid at a cost of 53230, to gether with 1000 feet of brown stone curbing; 276,480 bricks were laid on various sidewalks. HAMPSHIRE COUNTY. A Hampshire county paper says:—“lt was freely stated by Col, Crocker’s friends, both pre vious to and at the Greenfield convention, that he desired to remain in congress only for the balance of the present term. This was staled with so much positiveness, that it was taken as a fact by many of the friends of the other candi dates, and led them to believe that next fall the field will be open for the selection of a Hamp shire man for the next congress. It is at least worth while to place these assurances on record.” FRANKLIN COUNTY A pious lady in Franklin county made the “Methodist missionary society of New England” her residuary legatee in her will, proved some three years since. No such society existing, her next of kin claim the residue. BERKSHIRE COUNTY. The annual “New Year’s prayer meeting,” held for so many years at Dr. Todd’s church in Pittsfield, is appointed fur sunrise, Monday morning. The Johnson organ company of Westfield have just shipped a $7150 organ to Akron, U., and have shipped $18,600 worth of instruments since Oct. 1. A liquor store on Main street, Lee, was sud denly shut up by the owner a few days ago, after a shower of tumblershad crashed at him, and the crasher bad threatened to divulge to the state constables. A Pittsfield woman makes the regular assess ment of $25 upon each of the liquor dealers in that town who sell the ardent to her husband, and they “come down’’ rather than stand a pro secution. The daily production of paper by the Smith paper company of Lee on the Ist of January, 1869, was ten tons; on the same day of 1870, i 2 tons; 1871, 14 tons; and on New Year’s day, 1872, they expect to make 18 tons. Several persons are spending the winter at the Pittsfield hotels and boarding-houses for the benefit of their health, the climate being recom mended by physicians for its tonic qualities. Among them is William Lawrence, who was for merly ol the Boston firm of Amos Lawrence it Brothers, and who is accompanied by his family. MAINE. Application will be made to incorporate the new towns of Kingman and Medway. An effort will lie made to remove the shire town horn Norridgewock to Skowhegan. It will be proposed to have the scaling of logs regulated by law. The citizens of Hancock and Washington want the gi me laws changed in those counties in regard to the killing of wild ducks. The citizens of Presque Isle ami Maysville, in Aroostook county, want those two towns united in one. Gov. Perham has honored Hon. Chas. P. Kim ball of Portland, his political antagonist for governor in the last canvas, by appointing him assistant commissioner to the centennial anni versary of American independence, to be held an Philadelphia in 1876, and that gentleman will accept the appointment. The commissioner was appointed during the past summer, and is Hon. Joshua Nye of Augusta. NEW HAMPSHIRE. The post office at East Alton has been discon tinued. Wm.

FISK HATCH, BANKERS and Dealers in Government Securities, NO. 3 NASSAU STREET, New York. Nov. 20,1871. The successful and rapid negotiation of nearly three fourths of the FIFTEEN MILLION LOAN OF THE C’HENAPEAKE AND OHIO KAILKOAD COMPANY* and the energetic prosecution of the work of extension and preparation of the Road for an extensive mineral, agricultural, and through traffic, have placed the financial affairs and re sources of the Company upon such a basis, that we are directed to advance the price for future sales of the Bonds, as explained in the following letter of Mr. Hun tington, President of the Company: Office Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Company, 54 William Street, New York, November 18. 1871. Messrs. Fisk Hatou, Bankersand Financial Agents C. ht<> River, and the mouth of hew River (above the Falls of Kanawna.) is now substantially completed, a id w ill, in a few days, be ready to do Ilie immense coal ami other business th it Is awaiting its completion.

Very respectfully yours. C. P. lIUWTINUTON, Prcaldcnt. In compliance’ with the foregoing instructions, the price of the Bonds, from this date, until further orders, will be 04 and accrued interest. The scarcity of, and demand for, really Desirable Six Per Cent. Gold Bonds, lor solid and permanent investments, Is evinced by the facts that Five-Twenty Bond* of 1867 are selling at.... 115 Central Pacific Bondw arc selling at 103 Cheaapenke «V Ohio Bond* are selling at. 04 These bonds all pay both principal and interest in New- York City, in U. 8. gold coin, and are equally safe for investment. The reason why Five-Twenty Bonds are so high i because no more can lie issued, ami the outstanding amount is being rapidly decreased by purchases by the Government from their surplus revenues. The reason why we think Central Pacific Homis will In time advance to the price of Five-1 went les, Is be cause no more can lie Issued; while Hie operation o'l their Slaking Fund will soon commence to decrease the amount. The reason why Ciiebafeark ano Onto Bonds are selling so low, comparatively, while equally safe. Is be cause the Company ate selling Bonds to complete t read. They will all he sold in a ebon time, and Ina few months the road win bo amelled. when we bare no doubt Hi.' same result will follow as with Five Twenty amt Central Puclllc Bonds.

The Company Is allowed “to negotiate and procure a loan which shall not exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars per mile, ’’which is secured by a FIRST and ONEY MORTGAGE, “UPON THE KAIE* ROAI>, FRANCHISES, ANH AEE THE EANHS ANH PROPERTY, ANH RIGHTS OF PROPERTY, KEAE ANH PERSONAE, NOW IN POSSES SION BY THE NORTHERN PACI FIC RAIEROAH COMPANY, OR WHICH THE SAIB COMPANY MAY HEREAFTER ACQUIRE.” anl THE TRUSTEES OF THE BONUS ARE OBEIGEH TO HOEH 25,000 ACRES OF AVERAGE EANH AS HECURITY FOR EVERY .*150,000 OF BONDS ISSUER. The sales of all lands, “AT SUCH PRICES AS APPROVED BY THE SAID TRUSTEES,’* are set apart to redeem the Bond*, for by the definite terms of the mortgage, “THE PROCEEDS OF AEE SA EES OF EANDS, WHETHER IN CASH, BONDS, COUPONS OR OTHER SE CURITIES, SHAEE BE DEPOSITED WITH THE TRUSTEES also, “AEE MONEYS IN THE HANDS OF THE TRUSTEES FOR EANDS SOED, SHAEE BE INVESTED BY THEM, IN THE FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS OF THE COMPANY SECURED BY THIS MORTGAGE, WHEN SAID BONDS CAN BE PURCHASED AT A SUM NOT EXCEEDING 110 CENTS ON THE DOEEAR AND ACCRUED INTEREST.’’ Although the Northern Pacific Railroad Company in tend lo sell Ihe same quality of lands at prices BEEOW OTHER GRANTS, to induce rapid settlement; still the practical working of the above provision is ap parent, for the sales of land up to November Ist exceeded 200,000 acres, at an average price upwards us $6 per acre, EQUAL TO $',200,000, OR MORE THAN 10 PER CENT. ON $11,500,000, WHICH WAS THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF BONDS SOLD TO THAT DATE; still this 200,C00 acres of land is NOT QUITE ONE-SIXTEENTH PART OF THE EAND GRANT IN MINNESOTA AEONE. Below we give the average price per acre of the sales of the Land Grants on different roads, that some idea maybe formed of the immense va uc of the 60,000,000 acres granted to the Northern Pacific Kailroad Company, for there can be no doubt that the average price per acre of its land sales will lie much above the general average price of these roads: Average per Acre. Grand Rapidsand Indiana $13.98 Bullington and Missouri River II 70 2.70 on the Kansas Pacific Road, still at this low figure f .»r the 25,f)00 acres held to redeem each $50,000 of bonds, there would be a surplus of $17,500 over Hie amount of bonds that can be issued on each mile of the Northern Pacific Railroad. During the present month the Northern Pacific Rail road will be opened fur passengers and freight to the Red River of the North, theeastern boundary of Dakota Territory—this, with the completed road on the Pacific slope,and the St. Paul and Pacific branches of 288 miles will m tkc nearly 600 miles of road in operation at the close of this year. As the U. 8. Government Is now calling in the Five- Twenties, holders of these can convert them into North cm Pacific Bonds, and thereby IXCREABE THEIR INCOME MORE THAN 33 I*3 CENT. At tlic present time a good propor tion ot the sales of N. P. Bonds are by the conversion of I ive-Twenties, ana we notice that the Boston Journal in its monetary artlcl^of Nov. 11th, says: “Holders (of Five-Twenties of 1862) are either realizing upon them, or exchanging them into other issues—often into rail road bonds—tin* Northern Pacific Seven-Thlrths are favorites for reinvestment.” The Chicago disaster fully demonstrated that a First Mortgage Bond on any Trunk Line of railroad is the safest and lea 1 fluctuating security known. This is munlfehl in one quite marked Instance, as seen in the fluctuation ufthe FirotMortgage Bonds of the Michigan Central Railroad, which fell but one percent, in the late financial panic, while U. 8. Five-Twenties and Sixes ot 1881 fluctuated two to three per cent.; and here the Michigan Central Railroad had met with the greatest joss it could by fire—the burning of its large terminal ilepot. The New York Daily Bulletin, which gives the authentic reports of the Stock Exchange, In its issue of the 11th of October, after Cho Chicago fire, says: “Rail road Bonds have stood the shock better than any other class of securities,” and again, October 18th, says: “Railroad Bonds are steadier than any other ciass of securities.” n^To persons seeking permanent investments, also holders of Government Bonds wishing to increase their income, WE WOULD RECOM MEND THE NORTHERN PACIFIC SEVEN THIRTY GOLD BON DS AS ONE OF THE BEST AND SAFEST SECURI TIES NOW OFFERED TO THE PUBLIC. We recommend tills bond for the reason that ft is GROUNDED UPON A LANDED REAL ESTATE HASIS, WORTH DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF BONDS ISSUED PER MILE, AND ALSO UPON A FULLY EQUIPPED TRUNK LINE OF RAILROAD RUNNING THROUGH THE SAME. For further particulars concerning this Bond, or pur chase of the same, apply to the undersigned. SAM E T. BIGELOW, SECRETARY Worcester Safe Deposit and Trust Co. GEO. F.
