it wa* on tne urn nignc ot xna niun, whan the bill renewing the land gnuit to the State of Arkansas for the Lityle Satk read was Racked, aad Jaliaa, of Indiana* chairman of die Public Lands Committee and, by right, entitled to the floor, a^tomntad to put on the bill, as aa ameadmeat, tae Fremont El Paso scheme—« scheme prsbably well known to Mr. Caldwell. The House was thin aad the lobby in the Fremont interest had the thing all set up, and Julian's amendment was ukely to prevail brought to a rota. Roote aaa other awmberB from Arkansas, who were doing their best for their own bill (to whiek there seemed to be no olgectisa), were in despair for it was well known that the Senate was hostile to the Fremont scheme, aad if the Arkansas bill had gone back to the Senate with Julian's amendment the whole thing would have gone dfe the table and slept the deep of death.

In this dilemma Roots came to me tc know what on earth he could do under tlw rales ")r he said it was vital to his constituents that the bill should pass. I told him that Julian's amendment was entirely out of ordei\ because not germane bat he had not sufficient confidence in his knowledge of the rules to make the point but he said General Logan was opposed to the Fremont scheme, and would probably make the point. 1 sent my page to General Logan with the suggestion, and he at once made the point. I could not do otherwise than sustain it and so the bill was freed from the mischievous amendment moved by Julian, and at once passed without ob-

At that time I had never seen Mr. Caldwell, but you can tell him that, without knowing it, I did him a great favor.

MY DBA'4 MB. FISHKB: Find enclosed contracts of parties named in my letter of vesterday. The remaining contracts will completed as rapidly as circumstances trill permit.

I enclose you part of the Congrtt$tontH IHobe of April 9th, containing the point tr which I referred at some length in mv previous Jetter of to-day. You will fina it of interest to read it over and see what a narrow escape your bill made on that last night of the session. Of course it was my plain duty to make the ruling when the point was once raised. If tne Arkansas men had not, however, happened to come to me when at their* wits' ena and in despair, the bill would undoubtedly have been lost, or at least postponed for a year. I thought the point would interest both you and Caldwell, though occurring before either of us engaged in the enterprise. 1 beg you to understand that I thoroughly appreciate the courtesy with which yon have treated me in this railroad matter but your conduct toward me in businesa matters has always been marked by unbounded liberality in past years, yuid, of course, I have naturally come to expect the tame of you now. Tou urge me to mafc* as much as I fairly can out of the arrange* ment into which wa have entered. It it natural that should do my utmost to thta end. I am bothered only by one thing, and that is definite and expressed arrangements with Mr. Caldwell. 1 am anxious to

uire the interest he has promised me bat not get a definite understanding with him, as I have with yon.

I shall be in Boston in a few days, and shall then have an opportunity to talk the matter over fully with you. I am disposed to think that whatever 1 do with Mr. Caldwell must really be done through you. Sand regards to Mrs. F'aher. Sincerely,

ATOUSTA, MB., NOV. 25th, 1870. MT DBAB MA. FISHKB: A year ago and mote I spoke to you about purchasing aa interest in the Northern Pacific Railroad for yourself aad any you might choose to associate with yourself. The maWer JNDMSi by vnthout my being abl* to wwtiW it, and nothing mere tea* said about it. Since then the Jag Cooke contract has been perfected, the additional legislation has been obtained and 230 miles of the road are -fell nigh completed and the nhot* un* will be ftuhed forward fepMEg. By a etrange resolution of circumstances I am again able to control an interest and if go* desire it you can have it. The whole ro*d is divided into twenty-four shares, of which Jay Cooke St Company have twelve. The interest I speak of is one-half of one-twenty-fourth, or one-one-hundred-and-ninety-seoond of the entire franchise, being that proportion of the $81,000,000 of stock that are being divided as the road is built, and a like proportion of the Land Company stock that is formed to take and dispose of the 52,000,000 acres of land covered by their grant as amended by the law of last session. The amount of stock which this 1-192 would have in the eno would be about $425,000, and the number of acres of land it represents is nearly 275,000. Tne road is being built on the 7-90 bonds $25,000 to the mile, which Jay Cooke takes at 90.

Iastead of mottgaging the land, they make a stock company for its ownership, dividing it fro rata among the holders of. the franchise. The whole thing tan be had for $25,000, which is less than onethird of what some other sales of small interests have gone at. I do not suppose you would care to invest the whole $25,000. 1 thought for Ni small tb er eight or ten of ran Boston might take it—$2,500 each For $2,500 thus invested you would get ultimately $42,000 stock and the avails of some 27,000 acres of land. Five of you a} $25,000 each woald have a splendid thine tfit. The chance is a very rare one. I aa't touch it but I obey my first and best impulse in offering it to you.

Housa or RBPRESKHTATIVKS, WASHIXOTOH, D. C., Dec. 9th, 1870.) Mr DEAR MR. FISHKR: I wrote very hastily, both to yourself and Mr. Caldwell, in regard to the hank. A farther conference with the Comptroller of the Currency gives some additional facts which are of interest, and this letter is intended alike for yourself and Mr. Caldwell. Please show it to him. They are now allowing 90 per cent circulation on 10-40 bonds, instead of 80. and then 85 at different periods in the past. They give me the assurance that you shall have full $450,000 circulation on a bank'of half a million cavital,

ion can* et course, deposit 3-^Ba if yan please, hat yon will get no mora Httn 90 percent circulation. IMVwill «osl yon more, of course, and, though you riet more interest, yau will veiy Ukely he disturbed in the quidt possession of them very soon ty tha operation of the funding achate.

The opinion gains ground here fnito rapidly, as yon might infer from Secretary BontweU's «port, that the debt caa aw be funded at less than 5 per cent

By taking 10-40 bonds, therefore, yau would be undisturbed as long as tha banking system lasts, or at letft far 30 yearn aad more. None of the 10-sUe ssataJe before A. D., 1904, and that is quite long enough to embrace within the scone of any financial operation. It might oe well to have your formal application for y'r increase of capital, aad then take such time as yon may wish for getting your stock subscribed. If voa desire I will oonfer with Senator R*je in regard to forms, ate. It might be bitter now to let him take the lead.

Yours very truly, J. G. Bum.

W. FisnBR, Jb., Esq. xtv^ AUGUSTA. ME., Dec. 29^ 1870. MT DEAB MR. FISHKR: I am hopes now that I shall secure $25,600, or nearly that I find money very tight and rates well up to 9 per cent.—-stiff at that

The most of it will be far five or six months. If I had had more time and earlier notice I could have raised more, aad at easier rates. I have seen most of the

Cve

rties to whom bonds are due. I do net much trouble about the January coupon of the first mortgage bonds—but they, of course, growl some—on six of the bonds. I would be glad to have' the coupon. 1 promised them individually to make it right in the future. I did not in any way use the name of the company, nor commit you to anything—only myself.

On the land nonds I cannot make them see the eqnity of removing the April coupon, and I promised to try and adjust that matter with, you after my return to Boston. They all agree with one voice that no bond shall be expooed for sale. I wish you could five me tha benefit of that fraction, making thirty-two of the first mortgage-bonds fot th? $31,500 due. 1 use the extra $500 in adjfts£ar interest matter, and it fits in complete^ it right with you. w4

What I want, then, is aoo nnn S $21.000 first mortgage bonds, $82,000 $52,000 land bondk, and also collateral to the notes for $25,000 an additioniU $50,000 of land bonds.

Please meet me at Mr. Caldwell's private office on Saturday at 12:15 sharp. I shall fry to be there precisely at noon, but allow fifteen minutes for grace. It is very important that I bave everything completed that day, as a mio will come to Boston with me to take charge of the bonds. Vonrs in g't haste. G. BUVB.

MY DBAR MR. FISHBR: I have this moment written to Mr/Caldwell, suggesting that in case 1 can arrange a meeting in this city next week with Col. Tbomat A. Scott, to come on here. I have some reason for believing that a very advantageous arrangement may be made for taking, say, $300,000. I will telegraph Mr. Caldwell by Tuesday evening if I can arrange the meeting, and I wish him to hold himself in readiness for the journey. Your letter is this moment received. You ask my advice. Let me have an accurate and reliable st?**ment of your financial condition, and 1 can do something, I feel very sanguine, with Thomas A- Scott.

I think you will not deem me unreasonable when I again and persistently urge that I ought to have good notes for tne $25,000, and that I ought also to have *h: $82,000 bonds, which were made by yourself and Mr. Caldwell the express basis of tha'$25,000 loan. I do not believe y'r company has a stronger or more equitable and legal claim than mine, while its personal hardships to me are bitter and burning and humiliating to the last degree.

,-Ji

U.S. 'IVES, t, 1871.

MY DEAR MR. CALDWELL: On the 29th inst. (he second note of the loan I negotiated in December last falls due. The first Cor $2,082.50, which fell due March 1st— 4th, 1 was compelled to meet at the gravest possible inconvenience to myself. I drew on Mr. Fisher for the amount, but he declined to notice the draft. The note which falls due on the 29th inst. is for $2,578.35. It seems extremely hard and unjust that 1 should be compelled to pay this money. It is no more my debt than the debt of President Grant or Queen Victoria, and I cannot believe that you and Mr. Fisher, both or either, intend to leave this burden me.

If you do. it will crush, me. I have no possible means wherewith to meet these notes, and I beg of you and Mr. Fisher, either or both, to come to my relief. In a letter from Mr. Fisher, under date of January 24th, he writes me as follows:

In regard to the $25,000 which you 'torrowed and loaned to Mr. Caldwell, or iitbcr Mr. Pratt, as it was assumed by Mr. -'rati, because you received from him $"0,KK) land bonds for the amount. Upon toy ':siting the office for the first time after oi: left, the city, Mr. Pratt said he and Mr. Farrington gave to you their individual bonds, and they kept the money and in uder to obtain the money, and get it out ot Mr. I'ratt's hands, I obtained $50,000 land bonds, and took what I supposed to be •nonf but it was not there. Part of it hiul been misapplied to other matters $ 15.000 of it located Mr. Ca'dwell: the

balance went into a bouse at Little &ock. without my knowledge or consent, and Pullman cars, etc., etc."

Now, my dear sir, if this be a oorrcct statement, may I not hope that you will relieve me to the extent of the $15,000, and Mr. Fisher will surely pay the other $10000.

As a wholly innocent third party, doing my best to act as a sincere and steadfast friend to both of you. 1 ought not to be left exposed to financial ruin and personal humiliation. rfease read this to Mr. Fisher. I have if

^AOOTTRA,MB^Junelitb, 1871. MT DEAB MB. FISHEB: I tried very hard yesterday and day before (Monday and Tuesday) to see you, but was not fortunate enough to run across you. I am in a very painful and embarrassed sitaatkm, growing out of my connection with the Fort Smith enterprise. I have paid aad caused to be paid into y'r treasury about $S5(^OOOL and the only result to me is the most painful perplexity. The most painful of all aad the most oppressive is the $25,000which I paid to Mr. Pratt for you, Jdauaxy 2d, which I borrowed here on my own fait^iind credit on the distinct understanding with you that it was to be repaid, aad that I was alaatr receive a certain proportion of the bonds. 1 have received only apart of the bonds—the larger part—and not a dollar of the money. And now, in addition to all other troubles, I have $10,000 of coupons, a little over that amount which I am held to take care of, partly through verbal understanding, and partly through written agreement-—cou-pons due in April on laad bonds, and to fall due in July on first mortgage bonds. Now, I have a proposition to make to you, which I think is most liberal aad fair going as far as I possibly caa go without ruining myself past all recovery. If you will look at copy of our agreement in your hands, you will find there is still due to me $70,000 of land bonds and $32,000 of 1st mortgage.

In order to square myself with my friends, 1 need and must have $36,000 land bonds, and $9,0001st mortmge*-$45,000 in allstill leaving $57,000 of mine in your hands.

Now, if you will take 19 these $10,000 of coupons, paying me the cash therefor, and give me the $45,000 of bonds,' I will let all the remainder of oar matters stand antil you are perfectly at ease and ready to open correspondence on tbe subject yourself. In other words, I will leave the matter is your hands until the Fort Smith enterprise is out of the woods aad its tangled amirs well smoothed out.

I trust, in consideration of our many years of friendship, as well as in view of the peculiar relations I have held in this matter, you will make an effort to do this.

Pray let me hear from yoa at your earliest leisure, and greatly oblige yours truly.

MT DBAB MB. BLAINE Tt is the grea' est importance that the parties owning th» 'ntcrest in the $25f000, and invested btbem in the Northern Pacific Railroad, should receive what is due them and, unless something is done about it, I shall be forced to turn the document over to them, and let you settle directly with them. I am constantly reminded about it, and they all say: Why don't Blaine deliver to you our interest? Mr. Caldwell tells me he has paid you his last note due you, and gave you the $50,000 land bonds in addition. 1 should judge it was for your interest to settle the matter at once, and have no further delay. You mast be your own judge in the matter, hut rny advice is to settle it at ouco remain, WARREN FISHER. JB. rx.

AtvrJSTA, Oct. 1st, 1871.

MT DKAR MR. FISHBR: I am doing all in my power to expedite and hasten the delivery of 'hit stock. The delay has been occasioned by circumstances wholly beyond my cdotrol. Bat I shall reach a conclusion within a few days, and make a formal delivery thev. It will be an immense relief to get it off my hands, I assure you far greater than it will for you to receive it.

You must have strangely misunderstood Mr. Caldwell in regard to his paying those •totes, lie has paid me in all just $6,000 leaving $19,000 due, which I am carrying here at 8 and 8^ per eent. interest, and which embarrass me beyond all imagination. 1 do not really know which way to (urn for relief, I am so pressed and hampered. The Little Rock and Fort Smith matter has been a sore experience to me, aad if you and Mr. Caldwell between you cannot pay me the. $19,000 of borrowed money, 1 don't know what I shall do. Politically I am charged with being a wealthy man.' Personally and pecuniarily I am laboriu^ under the most fearful em-

oarrassinents, and the greatest of all these embarrassments is the $19,000 which I banded 07er under your orders, and nol one doU.'tr of hich I have received. Of the $2o,0iXr original debt, Mr. Caldwell has paid $6,000 anil $6,000 only. Can you not five ine some hope of relief in this routtoi It is cruel beyond measure to leave me so exposed and so suffering.

You know my profound regard for you and my faith in you. We have been friends too long and too intimately to allow a shade between us now.

Youra truly, J. G. BLAINB. XXI.

AUGUSTA, MAINS, Oct. 4tb, 1871. MY DEAR MB. FISHER: You mast have strangely misunderstood Mr. Caldwell's statement in regard to his paying tne all but $2,500 of the $25,000 borrowed money which 1 loaned the company through him and yoa last January. Mr. Caldwell paid tae in Jtjne $3,500, and in July $2,500 more, accepting at the same time a draft for $2,500, July 10th, ten days, which draft remains unpaid. I have, therefore, received but $6,000 from Mr. Caldwell, leaving $19,000 (besides interest) due me to-day.

For this $19,0001 am individually held, and, considering all the circumstances, I think you and Mr. Caldwell should regard it as an honorable debt and you should not allow me to suffer for money which 1 raised under the peculiar circumstances attending this. It is a singularly hard and oppressive case, the features and facts of which are familiar to you and Mr. Caldwell.

And, then again, I have beea used with positive cruelty in regard to the bonds. I have your positive written contract to deliver me $125,900 land bends and $32,500 first mortgage bonds. The money due you on the contract was all paid 'nearly a year and a half ago. Of this Whole amount of bonds due me, I have received but $50,000 land grants, leaving $75,000 of those and $32 500 first mortgage still due. I know you are pressed and in trcuble, and I don't wish to be too exacting rather I wish to be very liberal in
