GEy ROBERT Z. LEES poLITICAL VIEWS
Referring to the report that Governor elect
Walker, Of Virginia, had invited General Lee
to attend a conference on political matters, the
Lynchburg TUginiGR says:
" We can assure our contemporary that there
is no danger that General Lee will do foolish
act lie Is no politician, and has no idea, we
believe, of cmbarkiug upon such q stormy and
uncertain sea. That be is sincerely devoted
to the interests Of Virginia, no man can doubt
That be desires reconstruction, and would ad-
wise his people 10 put themselves into practical
relations with the federal, or, as it is now called
the national government, we have every reason
to believe Bat he will not enter into any con-
clavc Of politicians The people would not de-
sire it, even if Gen. Lee were willing to COM
promise his present position to crafty that
wish 1t is proper TO add, in this connection,
that there is no reason TO believe that such a
meeting as that referred to was ever suggested
perhaps not thought ot-by Governor Wal
ker"

Wilmington and the South Carolina
Railroad.

We have read with great pleasure lead
ing article in the Wilmington Journal Of
Tuesday last, in which it is announced by
authority, that the roads connecting at
Kingville will accept the proposition of the
South Carolina Railroad Company in regard
to through freight connections.
In the beginning of the "little contro-
"versy" to which the Journal refers, we
we're convinced that the South Carolina
Railroad had thrown no obstacle in the way
Of the Wilmington roads. There was evil
IDENTIFY, hewever, a serious misunderstand-
ing, and we were grsti6ed to be able to say,
in reply to the remarks of the Journal, that
the South Carolina Railroad had always
been willing, and was still willing, to take
Kingville freights at the Charleston rates,
or to pro rate with the Wilmington route If
the rates via Wilmington were made ~ per
cent. higher than the rates via Charleston.
This was the standing offer, and the Journal
will allow US to say, that as thore have
been hitherto no regular through freight
arrangements at Kingville, the impediments
of which it speaks cannot, in justice, be
charged to the South Carolina Railroad. A
verbal agreement is not sufficient in mat
ter which involves the safe and economical
operation of q long line of railroad, and We
undertake to say that there will be no rea-
soneSle cause for dissatisfaction if the Will
minpton roads will make formal and per-
manent agreement as they now propose to 90.
The contract once made, we are sure that
it will be adhered to in good faith by all
parties; and the confidence which we feel
in the fair dealing of the Wilmington roads
will certainly be met by similar confidence,
on the part of the Journal, in thu fair dell-
ing of the South Carolina Company. We
are not disposed to admit that either OF the
parties to the agreement will fail to do any
reasonable thing for facilitating the trans
action of business, and shall not have an
other word to say upon the subject, unless
the public good make5 it absolutely neces-
sary.
And as we have buried this ra. Dad
hatchet we may be permitted to thank the
Journal for the candid courtesy with which
it has discussed rather knotty question,
and to express our hearty good wishes for
the prosperity of the City of Wilmington.
We do aot forget Charleston, nor shall we
be one jot less earnest in our efforts to keep
her abreast of her rivals. But we remember
that Wilmington is Southern city as
Charleston is; and we know that in these
troublous days we should stand, like High
landmen, shoulder to shoulder; that we
should avoid discussion and controversy;
and that, whilo we fight each man for him
self, there shall be the South for US all.
