what is said of the Enterprise.

What is Said of the Enterprise.
The Cincinnati Commercial of the 18Th
inst. says -Fhe gentlemen representing
the Cumberland and Ohio Railroad Com
pany, who are in the city for the purpose
OF bringing that important project to the
attention OF our citizens, are meeting with
greater encouragement than was, uniler
the circumstances, to be expected. The
committees of the Chamber Of Commerce
and Board of Trade, appointed to consider
as to the best means Of presenting the sub
ject to our citizens, have introduced those
gentlemen to q number of our capitalists
and merchants, and find that the enter
prise receives very favorable consideration.
Not a few are convinced that the
trunk railroad projected from here
Southwark ought to keep on the
western side of the great Cumberland
range of mountains, verging as far to the
west as Is possible without wholly sacri-
fcing the project of getting direct COM
munication with the South Atlantic sea-
board. This idea grows in the estimation
Of our business men, though it is probable
that it does not wholly commit them to an
approval of the location of the Cumberland
and Ohio road 1t is, however, not i'm
probable that our people will revive their
hopes end bestow their energies on some
live project that viii put them in trade
connections promptly with Nashville, Chat
tanoogo, McMinnville, and indeed with
the whole Southern and Southwestern rail-
road system. If they take hold of thisthine,
it should be with the determination Of
putting it through and controlling its
future destinies.

investigation of Charges Against
GOV. Bullock.

GOV. Bullock.
ATLANTA, Ga, July 19.-The majority
of the Committee on Investigation of the
charges against Gov. Bullock, concluded
as follows:
Having gone thoroughly through the
investigations of the direct and indirect
charges against the Governor, your
Committee feels that it is due 20 His
Excellency for US to state that nothing
has been disclosed or established which
tends in any matter to impugn his mo-
tives or his personal and official integrity,
and we invite the attention to the evil
dence to sustain us in this position.
The minority report says it is just to
say that the instance of trsnscending the
law herein before diseased the evidence
of the facts or show that the Government
has been pecuniarily benefited
Charges against the state Treasurer
Upon the charges against the Treasurer,
the majority of the committee on the
charge of having accepted bride after re-
ceiving the evidence, say your committee
feel that it would be improper to express
our opinion on this charge. In view OF
number may be called on to act upon it in
a Judicial capacity, the majority do not ex-
press an opinion, but they repeat the Opin-
ION given by Chief Justice Brown, that the
question of proof depends on the motive
under which the money was received byA
the Treasurer.
The majority conclude their report bi
saying it is due to the Treasurer to state
that, as far as they have been able to dis
cover, all public monies which have gone
into the hands Of the Treasurer have been
accounted for.
The minority say we are unable to ex.
plain why the Treasury books did not
show exactly what became of the balance
of S437, ga 30, which appeared TO have
been on hand June Is, 1870.
Laid on the Table.
In the Senate to-day the report of the
committee on the charges against Gov
Bullock was laid on the table.

The retching and vomiting continued.
