WILL SAY AND Do NO MORE ABOUT
IT.-Gen. Raum, Attorney Of the Cairo
and Vincennes railroad company, arrived
in our city yesterday, and was in confer
ence during the day with the resident di-
rectors of the company, Mes.rs. Hurd and
Halliday.
Mr.. Halliday addressed note to Judge
Bross, informing him of Gen. Raum's
presence in the city, and requesting an
interview with HIM. To this note Judge
Bross made the following reply;
CAIRO, ILL.,, May &c, 1871.
". p. Halliday, Esq, CDiro, III.
Dear Sir Your note is at hand, and
will be glad to see you and Gen. Raum ut
any time, but if it is on railroad matters |
frankly state here that have no more to
say, and 10 do with the same. have re-
peatedly stated the same to some of your
friends in the last few days.
Truly yours F. BROSS.
This note plainly indicates the charac-
ter of the County Judge, with which the
people of Alexander comfy are compelled
to deal. He throws an almost insurmount-
able object in the way of u rail-
road project in the success Of
which nine-tenths of our people
are deeply interested, and then
frankly informs those who are charged
with the management Of the enterprise,
that he "has nothing more to say or do in
reference to the same He doesn't in
quire if new suggestions are to be made,
if new plans have been matured, il new
guarantees are to be offered. No. He
perenptorly and CURLY replies; II have
said and done all intend to do or say !;
no odds what new phases the
project may assume, no odds
what new necessities may arise, no odds
hat you or the people have to propose or
promi se-you have my ultimatum-Tn
do and say nothing further! That Judge
Bross or any man living may pursue
such line of conduct; that he or any
other man, may interpose the "little brief
authority he may possess, to defeat the
will Of the people and delay or destroy
undertakings among them upon which
the prosperity Of the country depends
that he or any other man may do these
things with IMMUNITY, We deny. The
Judge is undoubtedly heaping up for
himself "wrath against day of wrath"
and cannot hope that the time will never
come when he will be held to answer.

suggestion, the dispatch from Washing

THE leading feature Of the new charter
for the city Of Brooklyn, N. Y, devised
by the Legislative Committee Of the Re,
formers, Is the provision that the Board
Of Aldermen shall consist Of twenty-five
members, and that no elector shall vote
for more than twelve. This provision TO
secure tho minority party representa-
ton in the Board is opposed by the New
York World and other Democratic papers.
Their argument against ii ID, that body
selected in the proposed way would be
virtually appointed by the nominating
conventions Of the two rival political par.
ties. II each convention nominated
twelve candidates, tho twelve nominees Of
the strongest party and ten Of the twelve
nominated by the other party would be
absolutely certain Of election. The vo'
ters would have no room for expressing
their own preferences, and would only
have the choice between ratifying the
nominations Of the politicians or abstain
Ing from voting altogether The weak
point in this argument Is, that such bodies
are now virtually appointed by the nom
mating conventiOnsol one party where Il
has decided majority, and tho voter
will have just as much chance of express
ing their.preierences under the new system
"a they nnw havO indor the old, and
greater number will be represented. I'm
less the opponents Of the proposed plar
can show stronger reasons than those why
1t should not be adopted, tho Reiormeri
