OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES ~, 1877
The 9fiends Of the SOUTHERN Pacific
or Trans Continental Railway bill
(Fremont's,) say they have gained
strength since last session, and are con-
fident of the success of their measure.
1t will be secQu ected- thAt thisbll PASS

the House for concurrence, - carpet
bag ring were pushing q rival bill last
year, in which D. N. Stanton, of Ala.
bama, was interested; but they are not
now in a position 10 do much to OBJ
struct the passage Of the Fremont bill.
Mr.. Stanton has failed % pay the in
terest on his Alabama railway bonds,
and is said to owe in that State, "a mill
lion and half of dollars r.worls done
on his road. Cakes Ames, the broker
Of Mr.. Stanton, and the head of the
ring of New Englanders, who hoped to
get control of the Southern route to the
Pacific, has recently failed for seven or
eight million dollars; 50 that at present
he is hors du combat. Everybody agrees
as to the punctuality and desirability of
railway to the Pacific through South
ern territory; and it is to be hoped the
House will pass the bill now before it
without delay. =.
Several bills have been introduced
this session for : the protection of
settlers in Texas from hostile Indians,
and it is probable some measure will
be adopted which can be also applied
to the Western territories. A bill in
troduced by Mr.. Degener, of Texas, is
regarded with much favor, and will be
reported at an early day from the Mil
itary Committee. 1t calls into service
in Texas, one thousand frontiersmen,
or minute men, who are to act in con-
cert with the regulars under the Gen.
eral commanding the District, and pro-
poses to connect the Outposts by tele-
graph. An appropriation of one hum
dred and fifty thousand dollars will be
asked for to carry the bill into effect.
The fact is that the United States army
is not sufficiently large at present to
control elections in the North and
South, continue the work of recon-
struction, and at the same time protect
citizens on the frontier. Three hun
dred soldiers were ordered to Atlanta
few days ago to fight the shadowy
and impalpable Ku-Klux of that vi
cinity; while actual and tangible red
men continue to lift hair and steal stock
on our frontiers without the inter-
position of single blue-coat. Let us
have the minute-men, by all means.
The President thought better of his
decision to send a special message to
Congress recommending reconstruction,
ana merely furnished the Senate with
an abstract of the reports of military
commanders in the South, all of which
had been heretofore published. Not
withstanding the semi-Official state
ment given to the public few days
ago, it is an ascertained fact, that mes
sage urging further reconstruction in
the South, was prepared at the White
House through the instigation Of Sena.

Merchants, Tax Law.

MESSRS. EDITORS Some of us country
folks, who are not merchants, don't un-
derstand all this fuss the merchants and
Board of Trade are making about being
indicted. If they let their license run out,
or, may be, never had any, why ought not
they to be indicted, just as everybody else
are when they don't track the law? We
pay taxes on our land when we put our
money in it, and the merchant pays taxes
on his goods when he puts his money in
goods. Now, if we don't track the law,
and just let our road get little out of fix;
or some young city chap, just for his fun,
punches off mile-board; or we go to the
wrong place to vote-or do great many
other little things we don't know is con-
trary to law, the Court and Attorney and
Grand Jury jerk us up and make US pay
for it. But when the merchants of Knox
vile, doing their business on wholesale
plan, don't track the law, then big fuss
is made, and they have Board of Trade
meetings, and the States Attorney is will
ing to give 500 to get them out, and Mr..
Fleming says the law wasn't intended for
these kind of men, and the Mayor makes
a speech against it. We don't understand
it. fit amt the law, why are they jerked
up about it !? If it is, why don't they pay
up, as we do, and say nothing more about
it? They say they didn't know about the
don't know the laws. When we 60 to
town and happen to let our horse step on
the pavement, or ride little faster than
the Mayor and Aldermen think we ought
to, they don't ask us if we know their lit
tie town laws, nor the State laws either
but policeman arrests us, and Squire
White makes us pay fine or go to the
calaboose. But the thing don't work at
all when they don't keep the law and are
jerked up.
[ move that them that can read be fined
like everybody else; and that Judge Hall
let them off that can't read by paying the
costs. And if the States Attorney has
made so much money that he can afford to
give them 500, that he save enough to
help us when we get indicted and don't
know about the law. also move that the
Mayor and Squire White remember that
we people in the country don't know all
their little town laws, and they must let
us alone with their blue coated police.
Messrs. Editors, if Judge Jones will put
some of these merchants on the Grand
Jury few times, and let them try their
hands at that, may be they will learn how
to keep the law. TAXPAYER.

Orr Louisville Road.

We had an Interview yesterday with Presi.
dent McGhee, of the Knoxville and Kentucky
Railroad, who has just returned from trip to
Louisville in connection with the business of his
road. He says that there is fixed purpose on
the part of the business men of Louisville to
have the Lebanon branch of the Louisville and
Nashville railroad put through to this city.
Col. Macleod, the Engineer of the latter road,
had returned from his trip to Knoxville before
Mr.. McGhee left. and he saw his report. Mr..
Macleod reported fully and fairly the present
condition, the cost of construction, the actual
value and the business of the Knoxville and
Kentucky Railroad. He estimated the actual
value of the work done at $600,OO0 Mr.. Nc
Ghee is convinced, that if decree is rendered
in the Chancery Court at Nashville which will
give good title to the road, and if the valuation
is fixed at reasonable rate, the Louisville road
will buy our end and at once finish it. We do
not know that stockholders or corporations care
to lose their stock without some return, but if
it is certain that the road will be completed at
once and by men who will give Knoxville the
benefit of competition in freights, we think they
could afford to part with their stock at very low
figures. The answers othe bill of the Attorney
General are all to be fled at Nashville by next
Monday week, SO we think the case will be
speedily ended Knoxville wants that road put
through, and we hope to soon see it done.

There is yet no reliable information as to
the progress or character of the peace ne
gotiations. Unauthenticated dispatches
state that NJ. Theirs is anxious to agree to
Bismarck's terms to clear France of the
Germans and bring back the French army,
and then he proposes, it is added, to pro-
vide for plebiscite, to decide whether the
Count de Paris shall be King. Reports are
conflicting as to opinions on the probable
result of the negotiations. A dispatch from
Paris indicates that the German terms will
be accepted without modification; another
from Bordeaux is to the effect that Bis
marck is willing to resign Metz if Luxem-
bourg is given to Germany but another
from Paris states that the question of the
occupation and retention of Metz is settled.
A Carlsruhe dispatch states that Bismarck,
DESTROYS of learning the views of South
Germany in regard to peace, has invited
leading statesmen to conference at Yer
sailles.
