held this pm, presided over by Hon.
Geo. B. Loring. 1t is probable that all
questions on other side issues will be
eschewed, and that the platform OF the
Convention will be such as seems to be
demanded by the present national posi-
ton Of the Republican party.

EDITORS LEDGER: The proposition
made by me to purchase the stock OF the
city in the Memphis and Little Rock rail-
road, covers the vital requirements OF a
bona fds sale. The city desires fair
price. / have offered the largest bid.
After my offer was made, the party or
parties represented by Mr.. Brinkley or
Mr.. Mahon, increased their bid from
$4,000 to 100000. I desire, as pri-
yste citizen, to induce capital to come
here and make Il profitable to invest in
permanent improvements in this city, and
in the great West tributary to us. ! de-
sire to consolidate the railroads from
Memphis to Fort Smith in one line, with
Memphis as the initial point of the rail.
road system of the Southwest. Mr..
Brinkley has endesYored to effect this
consolidation for years, and has failed.
throw around the city the fullest guar
antee of good faith.
The completion of the road will ex-
hsust 100000 cash. The payment of
interest to the holders of the first mort
gage bonds In November will require
100000. The floating debt of at least
$500, 900 will have to be provided for this
year. All these liabilities are under
stood, and the money on hand to meet
them.
Now,it is utterly impossible to complete
the road in less than six months. Unlim.
tied m eans and credit could not do it. No
railroad man would hazard his reputa-
ton on promise to complete the road
in less than six months, and nine
would be hard bargain. The editor in
charge Of the appeal Of to-day, by i'm
plication, argues that my proposition is
not in the interest of the city. This may
be error of judgment in him. Certainly
/ have been influenced by the sole con-
sideration of protecting the city, and in
increasing aud enlarging its interests.
All that | have, all that / hope to acquire,
either of property or good character, is
ell here. And it is to secure for this city
the great railroad depot of the South
west that offer to the city the money,
credit and experience of an enterprising
man. 1t was the energy and capacity of
the same sortof men that buiit up Chi
csgo-men of large means, ample credit,
and who are interested in the material
growth and development Of the South

GRAND RECEPTION (!
10000 PEOPLE IN PROCESSION.

Gov. Gilbert G. Walker loft Norfolk
! yesterday morning for Richmond, where
be arrived at IL O'Clock. The day was
observed as holiday for his reception.
He was met at the depot by 5000 per-
sons and committee composed OF an
equal number of prominent white ana
colored men. On showing himself the
populace seized him and bore him on
their shoulders to a splendid coach de-
corated with National and State flags.
The procession then. which was over
mile long, marched through the prlncl-
pal streets with an elegant band OF
music at its head. and increased at every
step. A hundred coaches were in the
line, nearly all Of which we're covered
with State and National flags. On pass
ing the late residence Of Col. James K.
Branch, tho Conservative candidate for
the Legislature, who was killed by the
sad accident last Friday, the multitude
uncovered their heads and deep sill
ence prevailed The procession had now
increased to about 20, 900 people, and
the streets resounded with their cheers.
On the music wagon transparency
upon the side of which was painted a
white man and colored man shaking
hands in token of peace, On reaching
the Exchange Hotel Col. Walker ap-
pesred en- the porch between National
aad State flags held above him by re-
preventative of each race, and addressed
the large Assem- blage in vein char
actsristic OF the man. He counseled ami
ty and peace and good will towards all
men, telling them that though we were
victorious we should be charitable. He
closed his speech amid deafening cheers.
President Grant was also cheered.
Several other speakers followed Col.
Walker, among which we're one or two
colored men. The day was glorious
one, and young and old Richmond were
drunk with the most enthusiastic de-
light.
Returns received in Richmond yestsr-
day show majority of 60 on joint bal
lot in the Legislature.
News from all parts of the State are
still favorable for Walker. Thousands
of colored people voted for hin. 1t is
