REAL ESTATE. Woy a. Worse-Raiiway Will Affect Wabash Avenues The Influence of Improved Transit on Real Estate. The Sales of the Week Few and Un- important. The Loan-Market Shows a Lit- tle More Activity.” WABASH AVENUE RAILWAY. ‘The principal, and in fact the only, topic of discussion among real estate dealers, in the apa- thetic condition of the market last week, was the paseaze of the Wabash Avenue Horse-Railway ordinance by the Common Council. THE FUTURE OF PROPERTY ON WABASH AVENUE iss probiem of uncertain solution, and at the samo time of much interest and importauce. Is itto be an avenue of boarding-houses or some- thing worse; or a great retail etreet, the Broad- sway of Chicago; or is it for years to come to be neither one thing nor tho other? Sales bavo recently becn made of lots north of Twelfth street at ratea much below aute-fire figures. The sellers declared their lack of faith in the futuro of their property. But the buyers showed by porcbasiug that their views wero more sauguine. ‘The northern end of Wabash avenue has 17S STATUS SETTLED. It is ope of the radii of the great wholesalo centre of the city. South of Twenty-second etreet the avenae has s definite charac- ter. It is a fine residenco street. Its indeterminate postion lies between Con- grees and Twenty-second etreets. Two things are to be considered hero: the use of tho street as one of the great passages for travel, acd the interests of the owners of property. Asa mat- ter of transit, there can Le no question that to jutroducs a horse-railway is 2 great improve- ment. Itisan addition to the resources of the city, and by so much benetits all property. As for the interests of property on Wabash avenue, no ono is more competent to judge thau the proprietors themselves, and most of them signed the petition’ for s horse-railway. ‘Tbe value of such means of transit to streets is aufiiciently shown by tho : EXPERIENCF QF CTBER CITIES, aad of Chicago as weil.. Upper Broadway, in New York, through which horse-cars’ run, has become one of the greateet retail streets in tho city, and property there is as valuablo if not more valuable thon on lower Broadway. Sixth avenue, Fourth avenue, and other thoroughfares provided with ready means of transit, have im- proved much more rapidly thav other north and south streets, like Mercer. Greene, and Wooster, that heve no horse-railroads. or Lave not had till very lately. Tho introduction of horse-raii- ways in Louisville aud Cinciunati bas bad the same history. fea CHICAGO FURNISHES ILLUSTRATIONS enongh to demonstrate tho value of good means of traneit. Noonecan failto be struck with the difference in Halsted street’ south of the point where the cars forsake that street and tarn into Blue Island avenue. Milwaukee ave- nue shows slong its whole tength the benefits of tne ample facilities it enjoys for transporta- tion. Wheu the North Clark street cars, several years ago, were turued down Michigan street to cress the State street bridge into the South Division, the tenants of the Ewing Block, past whose doors the cars had hitherto run, was almost ruined. As they ex- pressed it, the drop in their profits was equai totheirrent. They informed their laudlord that they should have to surrender their lesses if they could not RECOVER THE CAR TRAFFIC. Tho sameresalt followed the diversion, some months ago, of the South Side horse-cars to Clark street, while State street was being repaved: ‘The retail dealers on State street found their sales immedi- ateiy and serionsly affected. Their trade went to Glark street, and they were greatly troubled Jest it should stay there. Asa tinal instance, it cannot have escaped observation how much more quickly State etreet, which has the most abundant means of transit, hasbeen rebuilt than any otber of the streets devastated oy tho July fire. Of course the benefits of a horee-railw: to Wabash svenuc depend upon the conduct ofthe company that haa been given the frao- chise. If they build good lino, extend it to the limits of the city, andequio it with tirst-claes cars, and run it for the accommodation of the people, the advantages will be far greater than if they abuse then franchise 25 they have abused ail the public has given them heretofore. ——_—— SALES OF THE WEEK. ‘The number of sales during the week has been small, and none of them have much im- portance. The Esgle Manufacturing Company as sold to Pinletus W. Gates $92 feet by 150 at the northwest corner of Madison and Clinton etreets,-for £283,536, but, as Mr. Gates avd the Company are substantially pue, the sale has no other interest thaa a change of name.

A fair proportion of loans is being invested in improvements, bu: a goodly proportion is also effected for the purpose of settling up old in- debtedness. ‘Ihe condition is generally con- sidered healthy. ‘There isa good demand for monoy, and sufficient funds to meet the de- mand. Tho rate of interest is unclinuged. There is a dieposition on the part of those who have the command of Eastern capital tu be moro than usually ceroful, and investments that wero favorably regarded a year ago are now looked upon with suspicion.

From seribner for January, During the seventecn years’ coufinement of this strange prisouer at Sante Marguente, St. ‘Mars, who brought bim to the for: was Te- placed by a Moosteur de Boupart, ss Governor. ‘The duughter of the latter, just emerging from childhood to womauhood, grew up with this mvs- tery around her. Sho bad seen the graceful fig- ure of the masked priconer promenoading at bight upon the terrace and at worstio in the chapel, where he was forbidden to speak or un- cover his face, the soldiers in attendance having tneir pieces always pointed towards him if he shonld attempt to do citacr. Sho dis- covered that her. farher always treated him with the . greatest respect, eerving him barchesded and standing. ‘His table service was of massive silver, his drceas of the ricbest velvet; he wore the finest linen aud most costly lace. ‘She had heard her father acci- dentally speak of him as “The Prince.’ Xo wonder that bis sad fate occupied her thoughts by day and his noble figure Launted her dreams by night. She, too, was very young and beauti- ful, and thoir eyea occasionally met im caapel. He sang beautifully, and was 9 very skillfal pei former on the guitar. It is eaid she climbed the rocks under the castle terrace and sang siwoet songs tothe pour captive. Thus a romantic love sprang up between them, and, ay it gained strength, the young girl dared to purloin the key from her father aud go obtain access to the priz- cner. When the Governor discovered hiz child's treachery he was struck with tue greatest dismay. ‘His oath was-binding upon him to put immedi- ately io death anyone who had spoken to tho piisonor. But she confessed hor love for him, aud pleaded piteously for her young life, ‘The captive, also, to whom tho Governor was much attached. joined his prayers to hors audimplored that they might bo made man and wife, and thea the secret would be safe. Tho Governor was not stern enough to immolste his child, aud perhaps a gleam of ambition may have flashed across bis mind, as in the event of (he death of Louis XIV. the prisoner would be ccinowledged aud bis daughter sit on the Throne of France. How- ever, their nuptials were performed by the priest of the cas:lo in the dead of ihe uieht, and and all sere sworn to secrecy. From this union two childrea were born. A whiaper of this reaching the ears of the Minister, the Marquis of Louvous, ihe prisoner was immediately removed to the bastile for safo keeping, and the mother, the priest, and Governor disappeurod. The children were sent io Corsica, to be brought up in obscurity under tho namo of their grand- father, Bonpart, which was corrupted into Bounaparte. Aud thus, says the legend, Provi- dence avenged tho wronga of the twin-brother of Louis XIV. and restored the oldest branch of the Bourbon to the Lbrone of Frauce. A Minnesota Spooks According to tho Le Sueur Sentinel, come of the residents of that section have, or at least claim to have, been visited by a ghost or fiety dragon. ‘As the story goes, this apparition mado its ap- pearance on two nights 1 succession, opposite ‘Le Sucur, in Sibley County, and about 4 miles distant. ‘Parties from Lo Suenr visited the place for tio nights in succession after its reported appearance, but for eome reason aro singularly reticent as to what they s: ‘The statements as given to the Sentinel are in effect, that on the: nights mentioned eeveral res- idents of the vicinity, at about 8 o'clock at vizht, saw a fiery substance, about the size of a flat- iron, rise from the ground on the prairie, and as it ascended it spread out into a great fiery imaze of adragon, with numberiess heads and tails, and after ascending and descending several times, and magnifying and contracting ita dimensions’ nt times, it disappeared promptly at Yc'ziock each night.

Yesterday stood between two holidays, and was, as might bo expected, unmarked by any oc- currenco of note in financial circles. Counter business was activo, but the demand for money was light. ‘There are some applicants for funds to tide aver tho Ist of January. More or less grain and. pork will change hands on the 1st. Settlements will have to be made, and parties are making their arrangements accordingly. ‘There is no money, however, in carrying grain or provisions at present prices, and tho borrow- ing for that purpose is very light. The supply of surplus moncy accumulates in the absence of n legitimate mercantile or good outside demand. Rates remain nominally unchanged, but con- cessions aro more easily obtained. To regu- Jar customers, 10 per cent is charged; but this rate is shaded to independent borrow- ers with satisfactory collaterale. Street rates aro 8@18 per ceut. Real-eetato loans aro 8@10 percent. ‘The supply of,exchango is largor and the rato easter. Sales were mada yesterday at 50c promium between banke for $1,000. ‘The movement of: currency to the country con- tinues in about tho same volume. ‘Lhe receipts are avout equal to the shipment ‘The clearings were 33,500,0U0. ‘ ‘Tho Virginia Courtof Anpesle has decided that both the States of Virginia and West Virginia aro bound separately and jointly for the whole State debt. "The London Times of a recent date comments as follows on the report of the British Board of Trade for November: " It shows resulta very similar to those of the past few months—a decline in values,‘ accompanied by a fair inerease in quantities, Taking the returns aso whole, they must bo decmed sativfactory, the popula- tion generally obtaining articles of domestic consump- tion, with fow oxceptions, at lower prives, and manu- factirers being enalied to eupp!y themselves with raw materia! at stich rates that, with the comparatively moderate wages now ruling, all that scems necessary fs some slight stimulus to enables good trade to be done in the courre of the next few month: Tho French Government is steadily pushing its admirabie measures for the resumption of epecie payments.

Tho deals were chiefly local, and limited in sey- eral casos to tho closing up of transactions which mature during tne coming week, or on which deliveries may be made next Saturday if the seller so elect. The receipts of produce were not large, considering that they were prac- tically the results of two days’ gathering in; and the probability is that they wiil be light duriog the coming week. Tho shipments are also small. ‘Tha wale of tables in tho Board of Trade will occur on Tuesday morning next. The election for officers will be held-on the first Monday in tho new yoar.

There is httle doubt that all the old corn that can be found in the country will be forwarded between this aud Now Yoar’s Day, 23 after that time it will be worth little more. than the new, instead of being at a premium of lic perbu, asnow. If the corn cannot be pro- cured, of course it cannot be delivered, and then will arise the very interesting question, often heard in New-York in the past, “* What. are you going to do aboutit?” Will the parties who fail to make deliveries be permitted to pay only the real damages sustained by the buyers, or be obliged to pay 85@%c per bi, tho price at which old coru is expected to rule the coming week? One thing should be noted: that the rules of the Board of Trade will not be altered previous to the dato whan these contracts ma- ture. There was but little animation in dry goods circles, nor is any considerable movement louked for juetat this juncture... With the bexinniag of the new year there are unmistakable indicativus that there will be a general revival of trade; consequently the extreme quiet now pervading nearly all departments of tue market dyes not unfavorably affect values, which remain steady ana firm. ‘Tho grocery’ market waa without special animation in any department, and phices, though ruling easy, Were not subjected to any iimportait tlactuutious. Teas, owing to the upward tendency of prices, are receiving more aitention than for some time previously, though, aside from Japans, there 1s no great activity us yet. ‘The butter trade was moderately active, with values unchanged,—good to choice gualities romatuing firm, Cheero was quict and steady.

No material changes were developedin taecoal, wood, pig-iroo, leather, aud bagging markets. ‘The lumber market was quict and unchanged. A few emall orders were coming from the coau- try, but the demand is very light. ‘The whole- sale trade in hardware, nails, iron, &c., was mod- erate at the prices recently quoted.

Flax was firmer,“ but other seeds were dull, Broom-corn was firm, and the lower and medium grades were quoted higher. The de- mand continues active. Hides wero moving freely, and tne market is stéady at the prices re- cently given. Hay was dull, especially prainic, avd weak. The higher grades of timothy were salable at the Stock-Yards at former prices. Poultry and game were rather dull and weak. The offerings were liberal, aud dealers were anxious to ciose out, The following table exhibits the stocks of pork and lard in the principal citios of the West.

At Indianapolis, the packing of pork h2s been limit - ed and the stock js exbausted.
