Stage .4ccident near Otoego.-The driver and three
passengers In the Elmra stage, were drowned in the
Owego creek last week. The road at the Owego end
OF the bridge had been cut through by the current,
but the whole road being covered with water this was
not perceived OF suspected by the driver. On reach
ing the channel which had been cut away, the stage
and horses were instantly submerged and carried
down the stream. There were four passengers, of
whom one escaped. The other three and the driver
were lost and their bodies had not been recovered at
the last advces. As the way bill lost, the names
of the passengers could not be ascertained
------------
The Sub Treasury BH.-Tho Washington cores
pondent of the Journal of Commerce says The com
mttee Of Finance in the Senate will soon take up the
sub Treasury bill. They will not force action upon it
either in the committee or in the Senae but believe
it will pass. A few Of the knoloing democrats would
like to give it the go by, but it will probably be sus
tanned by party majority
On inquiry, find nothing new as to the tariff The
duties will be nd UalOrem and anti protective excep
so far as revenue is concerned.
On the other hand, the correspondent of the Miro
says MANY of the friends of the original sub treasury
bill are strongly opposed to the act which has JUS
passed the House. Indeed it is generally considered
crude and imperfect measure, and there is little pros
pect Of its passage through the Senate 1t will ehe
fail in that branch of Congress- Or be thoroughly re
nodded before IT can pass.

Camp at Point Isabel, E'cXas

: .t 49, APRIL 18th, 1916.
Mr.. FuLToN-My Dear SIR Our army
reached the Rio Grande about the 24th March,
without opposition, unless Mexican threats can
be so considered. = -
r Mexican irregular troops were met on the
Colorado, some thirty miles from here, whose
officers informed oar commanding General
that if he attempted TO cross this river they
should certainly fire on him. The troops,
however, effected the passage without any OPP
position whatever. and have now established
a camp on the banks Of the Rio Grande, d.
rectly opposite Matamoras, within six hun
dred yards of the heart of the town. This po-
stion was taken by the army on the 28th
March, and the American flag Immediately
displayed, while the several bands played
most of our national tunes, the troops cheering
occasionally. ,.-.
Gen. lay Tor sent communication 10 the
General at Matamoras, stating his object In
marching to this river, and that, no one would
be molested in the enjoyment of his rights,
nor had he any instructions TO commence hos
tilities upon. the Mexican Army. To this
nothing has been replied, but sullen semi
hostile demeanor, until within few days
when, as it now appears, they are determined
to commence hostilitles upon US. Two days

was seen to leave our camp, as it appeared,
for short ride on horseback, since which
time he has not been seen by any Of our peo-
pie, and 1t is now believed he has been taken
prisoner, and carried across the river, either TO
Matamoras or elsewhere within the Mexican
lines. Yesterday communication was re-
celved from Gen. Ampudia: who, it appears,
has just arrived and assumed command of The
Mexican army, by Gen. Taylor, demanding
that our army should retire beyond the Nue.

twenty-four hours longer, they would regard
it as al act of hostility on the part of the Uni

though war had been actually declared. Gen.
'Faylor's answer was sent over this morning,
stating simply that he had no orders from his
government to fall back on the Nueces, there
fore he should Still occupy his present camp
and defend it, as well as act on The defensive

REsPONsTBILETY.

When Mr.. Polk sent his first message to con-
gress in December last, he made certain recon-
mendations with regard to the Oregon territory.
Amongst others, he recommended that the con-
vention of joint occupancy existing between G..
Britain and this country should be termina-
ted-that notice to this effect should be given.
Well, the propriety of giving this notice was
the subject of discussion, in both Houses of
Congress, during four long months. The
questions were first, Should the notice be Civ
en- at all? and second, if it ought to be given,
in what form should it be given? Mr.. Polk
as the executive of the Republic thought it
ought and therefore recommended it to Con-
gress, and we think nine tenths of the whole
American people agreed with Mr.. Polk
How has Congress acted on this suggestion /?
1t might either have given the notice, or it
| it has done neither. 1t has lodged the ques-
ton. We published in our last paper the
joint resolutions for giving the notice as they
passed both Houses. Our readers will see
from perusal of them that the words-the ope-
rative words-of these resolutions are, s'That
the President of the United States be, and he
is hereby authorized at his discretion, to give
the Government of Great Britain the notice
required by the second article of the said con.
vention of the 9th of August, 1927, for the
abrogation of the same" The Presidents an
thorised at his discretion!' We ask our readers
if this is not lodging the questions Is it not
shutting the responsibility from their own
shoulders and placing it upon those of M.
Polk? He is at last to give the notice OF his
own responsibility. Should it be attended
with happy consequences, why well. But,
should it on the other hand bring on war or
any thing of that kind, then Mr.. Polk will
have to bear the brunt. For he is to give the
notice, at his own F." discretion," and for its
consequences he will be held responsible.-
Why did not Congress boldly march up tc
the question and say, either we will give the
notice or we will not. This we think would
have been the manly and proper course. Blu
no. After discussing the question in every
aspect and in every light, Congress has a
last lodged the responsibility. We canno
: approve of such course, and think it our du
ty to say so. -

Gov. GraEaaERa---THae Hail Eg cad !

Mr.. EDIToR: | am pleased to see that the
people are beginning to take lively interest
in the approaching gubernatorial elections.
Partaking in some degree in this feeling. in
common with my ;fellow-citizens, propose to
address few thoughts on this subject olthe
public consideration; having no other object
in view than the welfare and prosperity of
our beloved State. Would it be, then, the in
terest of No!th-Carolina to re-elect Governor
Graham? Has he acted the part of the good
and faithful. or of the wicked and slothflI
servant! These are important inquiries. In
looking for tlf<. increase of his talents, find
none. But it is alleged by his friends that he
has done nothing for which he ought to be
turned out of the palace. suppose, then, as
this is all that has been said for him, and as
he is known to be aman Of negative character,
that no positive good is to be expected from
his administration. That he can make DO
] lite bow, and walk as direct from the capitol
to the palace, neither turning to the right hand
| or TO the left as any other man, am ready to
admit; and If our whig friends prefer the ex-
preston, he tries to sslook like Governor
But 10 this he does not .'follow the footsteps
OF his ilIustrous predecessor" whose chief re.
commendaton, as learned from the wing
press, lay in his shaking hands with all the
wagoners who visited Raleigh. 10 this it
! may be truly replied that mans public, and
not his private, conduct constitutes his quail
/ fication for office. If Gov. Graham has done
the State any good, or has benefited any por-
ton of it. he ought to have the merit of it on
the contrary, if he, has been faithiess to all
sections, and Proftableto only few .faBgorites,
he should receive the heavy condemnation OF
the people. - ts4E
|, then, charge that Gov. Graham has in.
velEed the State in a heavy debt, contrary to
the intention of the Legislature and regardless

+ ~ motive he could have had was to release or

Claims Of Citizens of the UNITED
States against Mexico. ai=sna =

Our readers are aware that the Republic of
Mexico has, Cor series Of years, been indebt-
ed, and largely indebted, to the citizens of the
United States, for spoilations committed npon
their property, and insults heaped upon their
persons. 1t is also fact that the authorities
of Mexico have, by solemn treaty sti pulations,
admitted that the claims of our citizens were
just and ought to be paid; yet it is also fact
that up to this time these claims have remain
ed unpaid and the civilized world cannot but
give to the government of the United States
credit for generous forbearance in not PEI
remptorlly compelling Mexico to pay these
claims. But we are strong and she is weak.
We have been generous and forbearing.. We
think, however, that the time has at last arri.
we'd when considerations Of this kind should
no longer prevent US from enforcing Justice at
the hands of Mexico. She has refused to re-
ceive our Minister, after inviting us to send
him to her capital. She has heaped upon us
insult after insult. We have borne with treat
ment at her hands which we would not have
taken from the proudest and most powerful
nation In Christendom. We think, however,
the time is come when stop should be pul
to this. We see that on the oath ult., MIR.
Jarnagin, of Tennessee, introduced joint res.
olutIon In the Senate, the object of which is
to raise board of commissioners whose duty
!. 1t shall be to ascertain what claims our citi
zens have upon the government of Mexico
I'VE hope this board may be raised, and thai
it may act promptly, and that when it has &C
ted our government will forthwith. take the
necessary steps to have our rights enforced.

u is matter of vast importance TO the
Democratic party, that the next Legislature
should be thoroughly Democratic. That ii
will be SO we confidently believe. There is
however certain course to be pursued in or
der TO secure this success. The strongest
men of our party should be brought gu. in.
every county, where there is chance of sue
cess. This, our friends shonld look to. Again,
there should be no division in our ranks
There should be no split tickets. We have
no patience with men calling themselves DEM
ocrats, but VINO p Irsue course dictated by
sheer personal selfshness, and entirely regard
less of the veal of the cause of which they
claim to be supporters. There should be only
one set of Democratic Candidates in each
county And these should be the strongest
men in the party in that county. We can
scarcely think that any man deserves the name
of Democrat. who is willing to sacrifice the
good of his party at the shrine of his own per-
sonal ambition. Such men should be given
to understand, that their business is to serve
the people, and not the people to serve them.
If there is any thing which puts US clear and
clean out Of patience, it is to learn that We have
suffered defeat through divisions in our own
ranks. Let the Democrats of North Carolina
Frecolect that there is "a Senator to be elected
next winter, and that we must have Demo
cratic Legislature, if we expect him to be a
Democrat. Let every nerve be bent to secure
the Legislature. The game is in our own
hands, if we will only do our duty.

We were, much to our regret, prevented from

The youthful Queen, Miss Julia Savage, we
learn from friend, was dressed most appro-

Of honor, supported the dignity and grace OF
her exalted station in manner most satisfac-
