Washington Items.

WASHINGTON, August 5.-Is is
known from the President himself
that he will not call an extra session
of Congress, unless the war In Europe
shall so effect our interests as to rem
der one necessary, but of this he has
no apprehension at present. The
President contemplates issuing a
proclamation of neutrality, but this
may not be ready for a week or more.
Frelinghuyseu has not accepted the
mission to Eogland 1t is understood
that the unsettled condition Of his
business affairs delays a response.
The President left to night for
Long Branch, whence he will depart
for st. Louis on Monday next, on
private business, returning to Long
Branch on the 10Th. The object Of
his presence in Washington to-day,
was to settle some public business of
a routine character.
Notice is given thSt passports to

The Judicial election in Memphis result
ed in the defeat of the Radicals, by q ma
rebeIs and other Democrats, chiefly
through fraud. Col. Eaton Y. y Marshal
arrested the officers OF the election In the
9Th Ward, for violation OF the law, IN not
enforcing the 14th and 18th Amendments;
they will be examined before U. =. Com
missioner Smith. next Monday. There is
great dissatisfaction among the epubll-
cans, from the fact that a large proportion
of the Republican tickets were thrown
out; also, that they voted for Chaneellors
and Judges, for which no election was or
dered. The u. s. Officials arc taking depo-
sfttons of large number of cosOrsd voters,
in regard to the frauds.
John Real, who was to be hung yester-
day, in New York, for the murder of a
policeman, has written an appeal to the
public, IN which he reviews the circum- :
stances of his trial. and the evidecce aud
character of the witness against him he
alludes TO the excited state of public feel
ing at the present time on account OF tne
Nathan murder, and charges that ne IS
sent to the gallOWs for political reasons.
The document also attacks otner proLnl-
nent politicians as follows: before the
trial one of my friends met Peter b. SWee.
nv in the ParK. Sweeny said: Real must

identity prepared by ms counsel, ana pro-
duced decided sensation.
Mr.. Turner, editor of The Raleigh, N. G.
SeattneE. was waylsyed and arrested by
GOV. Holden's militia, while on his way to
Orange County had not been declared un-
der mAItialiaw, and the arrest was bi itterly
denounced by all parties. The Radical
majority in the county was $50, and IL is
thought the Two COnServai ives have de-
feated the coiored Republican cand datt s.

Orange and Guilford Counties have gone
Democratic. 1t is said that in Aliemance
County the Conservatives were so intlm-
fdated that they did not vote. and the
county went largely Repu 0lIcan. In other
COUNTIES the vote was VerY close.

The Democracy of this District
meet in Convention to day az Rock
port for the purpose of nominating a
candidate for Circuit Judge. The
aapirants are Judge Davy Laird. of
Spencer County, aud Mr.. AFRO Dyer,
Of this city. Col. Jones, Judge
Laird's manager, gained quite tri-
umph over Mr.. AT. Whittlesey, Mr.
DJer's chief fugleman, in having the
Convention located at Rockport. IN
spite of the efforts of the latter to pre-
vent It. We were informed yesterday
that Mr. Whittlesey felt quite conf
dent of defeating Mr.. Laird 10 his
own tewn, and, with Judge Parret,
went By land yesterday in order to
manipulate the Warrick County del
egates II advance Of the Convention
Judge Parrett has always claimed,
and no doubt deservedly so, great in
fucnee over the Warrick Democracy,
and hence w hittlesey took him along
to fix matters up with the delegation
from that county On the other
hand, Jesse Laird, son of the Judge,
has been circulating pretty freely
through Posey County, aud has done
what be could with the Vanderburgh
delegates. He was quite confident
yesterday that Mr. A. T. Whittlesey
would be route1-horse, foot aud
dragoons-in the Convention, and
that the Judge would triumph glori-
ously.
We viii feel like congratulating
Col. Jones on his victory. if Judge
Laird is nominated. for the Democracy
hereabouts Lave been disposed tC
sneer at his pretensions, both as ar
editor and party leader.

The KentuckY Electlon.

The Republicans of Kentucky, on
Monday last, gave their opponents a
bad scare, and demonstrated their
ability to carry a large number of the
counties in the State by proper work
and efficient organization. It was
expected that the Democrats would
carry the State, but when we notice
how small are the majorities in some
of the hitherto strongest Democratic
counties, our confidence in the abili-
ty of the Republicans TO ultimately
carry the State is much strengthened
Indeed, the last election demonstrates
their ability to gain two or three Con
gressmen at the November election.
The frauds and chicanery to which
the Democrats were compelled to re
sort In order to perpetuste their
ascendency, in several of the counties,
can not be successful in every elec-
ton. One of the great points gained
is, that for the first time the Republi-
cans realize their strength. Here
after they will know better how to
defeat the rascality Of tbei opponents.
We hope the Republicans will permit
no Congressional District to go by
default, but that they will have can
didate in all, aud cast for him theiI
full strength. In this way alone car
they consolidate their strength, and
perfect their Organization.

THE following paragraphs from the

neighbors up the river are disposed
to be i4cetious over what is to US
very serious matter. Indeed we don't
exactly see where the laugh is to
come in:

with those 10 bondage.

supposed all along that the clause of
the law authorizing cities to make
donations in aid of roads, would be
declared unconstitutional, but the
Language Of the Journal indicates
that Judge La Rus, decides that the
simple act OF voting the tax, was
virtually a subscription of stock,
which is prohibited by Section 6,
Article 10, of the Constitution of
the State. Some of our best law
yers have been Of tho opinion that
even where tax was voted as do
nation to a road, the commissioners
might make the tax constitutional
and valid, by investing the amount
in the stock Of the proposed road.
If, however, Judge La Rue's position
is sustained By the Supreme Court, it
seals the fate of several railroad en-
terprises for many years to come.
The probability is that this view of
the law will not be sustained by the
Supreme Bench.

Railroad Tax In Indiana .


Our last Legislature passed a law
allowing cities, towns and counties to
vote certain tax. payable in cash, to
aid in the construction of railroads.
Under this law large amounts of mon
ey have been voted, some of which
has been collected aad paid over, but
much more Of which remains to be
collected. Aud now comes a Judge
at Lafayette, who decides the law to
be unconstitutional. This, as might
be supposed, has caused great excite
ment. The case is to be carried as
soon as possible to the Supreme
Court. With reference to this decis-
ion the Lafayette Journal says:
The city was greatly excited yester-
day at the decision of Judge LaRue
in the case of Geiger VS.. the County
Auditor, In which an injunction was
prayed for against the placing of the
one half of the Lafayette, Muncie 4
Bloomington Railroad tax, ordered by
the Board of Commissioners upon the
tax duplicate. The injunction was
granted. We have not the space this
morning for the Judge opinion. The
ground upon which the decision is
based was insisted upon by only one
of Geiger's counsel-DeWitt Wallace
Esq.,-Mr. Hendricks considering il
too flimsy to present. Whether, how
ever, our DISTINGUISHED young fellow
toWnsman will be sustained is yet to
be decided by the supreme Court
His view and that of the Judge is
that the voting of the tax was virtu
ally a subscription of stock to
the amount, which is prohib
tied by the Constitution of the
State, section 6, article 10. IF this
view is sustained, then counties can
never vote a valid tax, the proceed:
of which are to be used in paying fol-
railroad stock, because the act o.
voting is the act of subscription, anc
that can rot, und the Constitution
be complete until the actual cash il
paid fer the stock subscribed. If
county happens to have a surplus, the
Commissioners may appropriate it t,
the purchase of stock; but if tn
tax is voted for the purpose of beiD
understand it, is the doctrine 0
Judge LsRue's decision. Thirty day
have been given to file bill of ex
ceptions, when the case will 60 to th
Supreme Court. 1t is our opinio
that the constitutionality of the la
will be sustained. If so, then tn
next contest will be in the Stat
Legislature, which may repeal th
law altogether, and thus cause all th
tax 90 which no vested right ba
accrued to fall to the ground.
The decision is of great important
TO our city as it has large investmen
of this kind in railroads. We hav
