The Air Line Railroad.

The interest manifested in the construction
of this Road by other counties should keep our
people on the alert. The town of Walhalla
has subscribed $4,000 to the capital stock of
the Air Line Railroad, and the voters Of that
town will be called upon to decide the propo-
sition on the 25th inst. The city of Greenville
proposes to subscribe 900 and the county of
Greenville 100000, and this will also be SUBJ
mittea to the people on the 25th of June
Spartanburg has taken similar action, and the
question will be submitted to the voters on the
23rd of June, whether or not that county will
qahscribe 100000, and the town of Spartan
burg has already agreed, we believe, to make a
subscription of $4,000. It is needless to say
that the action of these counties does not favor
the probability of the Road coming to Ander-
son, and unless our citizens go to work at once,
the result is likely to prove disastrous to our
interests. We do not pretend that the sub
scription will be made in all of these counties,
as the vote in York county has been decided
against the subscription of 100000. But we
state the facts, and leave our readers to judge
as to the necessity of moving promptly

am about to enter. So help me God"
1t will be seen hat the terms of the above
oath are entirely prospective, while the IRON
clad is retrospective in its principal features.
But this oath is only applicable to such persons
as have been relieved of their legal and politi-
cal disabilities, and it may be suggested that
there are many competent and intelligent citi-
zens, worthy to become Representatives in
Congress, who are not disqualified by the oper-
ations of the Fourteenth Amendment, accor-
ding to the showing already made in this ar
ticle. Nevertheless, it is requisite that all such
persons shall either take the iron-clad oath or
obtain the removal of disabilities which do not
exist, if We may use the phrase, before entering
upon the discharge of duties pertaining to q
Federal office. As we understand it, there is q
case precisely in point in the facts connected
with the seating of Gen. P. B. M. YOUNG, of
Georgia, as a member of the Fortieth Congress.
He was not ineligible under the Fourteenth
Amendment, yet his disabilities (where none
really existed) were removed by Congress on
the 9th of July, 1868, and he was thereupon ad-
mitted to seat, on subscribing to the oath con-
tained in the act above rccited. There is a
necessity, therefore, where persons cannot take
the test oath, to 60 through the forms of law
in order to become eligible to Federal Office.
We have sought to place this matter intelli-
gibly before our readers, and trust that we have
succeeded in making it so plain "that he who
runs may read" 1t is vitality important to act
understandingly in the selection of candidates
for Congress, and as SO many of our acquain-
tances have admitted to us, in private conver-
sation, that they had overlooked the require
ments of the law, We have thought it worth
while to go over the whole ground, at this early
day, in order that there be no mistakes in the
choice Of dard-bearers if the anti-Radical

cinct, in going his rounds discovered two persons
lying At the bottom OF nlght OF steps OF premises
An examination, which the oficer made at once
showed that a woman was lying across the body OF
dead man, and that she was fast asleep. With
much difficulty she was aroused and taken to the
Prince Street Police Station, and there said her
name was Mary Lee, OF No. ia Wooster street.
The BODY of the man was carried to the station

that he should take car and ride up to Central

PARIS, May 3.-The explosive machines de-

were recently seized at the houses of conspira-

by the morning journals: - They resembled
quoits. The ring was divided into several small
chambers each of which contained vial of
nitrate of potash. Percussion caps were ingeni-
ously fitted, slightly raised from the surface, SO
that in falling upon any hard substance the
machine was nearly certain to explode. A ring
was attached to the periphery, to aid in throw
ing the missile adroitly.

Fremont in response to a communication from
that lady, announcing that the managers of the
Union Home and School for Soldiers and Sailors
Orphans will take charge of and educate the
children of those who were lost on the Oneida:

allow me TO express to you and your associates for
myself and for the whole naval service, the high ap-
preclaton that will be felt for this act Of generous
charity.
The fate Of the officers and men OF the Oneida and
the circumstances under which it was met were
such as appeal for sympathy to every heart and
they present to the world an example OF courage
and discipline OF which the men and women of our
country may well be proud To provide for the
orphans of those who died so suddenly vet so
bravely Is an act worthy OF your noble charity-an
act noble in itself and which will have effect for
good beyond the present.
There is no stronger sorrow than that which
comes with the thought OF those who left unpro-
vided behind; and death, whatever form it takes,
will be met with less regret II not with more cour-
age, by every sailor as he realizes that the hearts

In the name of the oficers and men of the navy I
thank the managers and members Of your instifu-

your kindness by them and their children, and OF
the higher reward which will come to you with the
consciousness OF giving JOY to so many hearts.
Very respectfully,
