The A & G., Railroad,

On yesterday, Judge Clopton, on the part OF
the State of Alabama; Judge Nisbett, of Geor-
terests of Tennessee in the Alabama and Chat
tanooga Railroad, met in this city for the pur-
pose of agreeing on plan for the running of
the road and protecting the rights of the cred
itors.
The State of Alabama has about 10000 in
bonds and accrued interest in the road and it
was resolved to foreclose the mortgage secured
on them, which will involve its sale, or being
entirely controlled by that State, which action
is decidedly adverse to Mr.. Stanton, unless he
speedily appears with funds, which, from pres
ent indications, it is not expected he will be able
to do.

ditnculty, reached the right road and arrived al
Aontvale at 10 P. NJ, lust in time to engage in

Mob Law.

In commenting on the lynching of Emanuel
Pinsen at Cleveland on the night of the 18th
inst, the Banner says, ''there was no evidence
at all that the boy attempted to violate the per
son of the young lady-on the contrary, she
says that nothing of the kind was attempted,
either by word or deed" and makes the follow
ing comments on the matter:
The negro was in the hands of the law-se-
curely imprisoned, and there he should have
remained until disposed of by the court. We
are dead down upon mob law. 1t must not be
tolerated in this christian and enlightened day.
There is no security for human life while it goes
unchecked and UNPUBLISHED.
'These masked men, who are taking the law
in their own hands, are doing more injury to
our peace and prosperity than all other causes
combined, and we do hope that something may
turn up that will stop them in their wild and
lawless career. The civil law is sufficient to
correct any criminal grievances that may occur.
The transaction of Friday night was uncalled
for and we do hope that another may never oc-
cur again in this community. Let the majesty
of the law be respected, and at all hazards, let
its mandates be enforced
