Ex-Gov. CARNEY, of Kansas, publishes
a long statement showing that Senator
Caldwell was the man who broke the pledge
of secrecy upon the transaction by which
the former was induced to withdraw from
tbe Senatorial contest on consideration of
receiving $4,000. He says he kept the
contract, and the money also, and that if
Caldwell bad only been faithful 70 bis pro-
misses "he would to-day have been member
of he United States Senate, and neither
himself, his friends, nor the people OF Leay

THE TENNESSEE CESTRAL RAIL
ROAM

N
ROAD.
To the Union and American:
Through your paper we want to say
few WORDS to the business men Of n ashville.
The Tennessee Central railroad was the
first or among the first, chartered in the
State, and ought to have been built. | am
here as the accre dited agent of said COmpa-
ny to ssk Nashville to help lis. We don't
ask great sum. Col. E. w. Cole, Presi-
dent of the Nashville and Chattanooga
Railroad Company, has given US the
road bed from Huntington to McLemores-
vile as stock in the company at rominal
figures. We have over 100000 which has
been voted and subscribed at TIentOn and
Milan. From nc i1emOresvlle to TIenton
is about tWenty-ene miles, and if Nashville
Will give enough to enable US to repair
the road bed from Huntingdon to McLe-
moresyiIle which was built by the State at
the enormous cost of 100000 it will in
sure its completion. 1t is estimated by tire
engineer that it will take fifteen thousand
to repair the roadbed ready for the iron.
We want Nashville to do that much and
more if she will, so as to complete the road
to Trenton on the. Mobile and Ohio rail-
road. This road, as is known to all famil-
lar with the country, passes through one OF
the richest sections in Tennessee, and one
now cut off from Nashville for want OF
direct communication. We can reach st.
Louis easier than Nashville; this ought not
TO be. Col. Cole proposes to indorse our
bonds to procure the iron for the road and
ten to operate it after it is built.
We have proposition from Mr. Norton,
President Of the Psducah and Memphis
Railroad, to take the $50, 900 raised at Tren-
ton, and build the road west. If Nashville
wid not lend US helping hand, we will be
forced to go the other way. But the road
once built to Trenton tie western coDnee
tions will take care of themselves.
We want Col. Hensley aud DR.. Sharp, of
the Board of Trade, to cal a meeting, at
which Col Cole and myself can more fully
explain. We want TO be more closely al
lied with Nashville. VIII she. help just q
