LOCAL MATTERS.

THE CHEsAPEAKE AND OH1o ROAD AND THE
LATE RAINs.-Our latest reports from the line
of the Chesapeake aud Ohio railroad were
received last night. The Ohio river at Hunt.
ington was forty-seven feet above the ordi.
nary level and was still rising slowly. The
water had submerged the freight elevatiDg-
engine about six feet, and bad risen as high
as the spot where the elevator formerly
stood. The track was clear as far as the
305-mile post, and trains were running with
regularity and on the usual time as far as
Hinton, and from Huntington to hanawha
Falls. Superintendent Thomson, with q
heavy force of hands, is at work on the slides,
and The road will, in all probability, be open
to its western terminus tomorrow. General
Wickhsm went up to the slides on the ex-
press train last night. " .. .,.

Worth Carolina slato Elections.

WILMINGTON, Angus. 4.-The State cleo
ton tomorrow is for 120 delegates to the
Constitutional Convention called by the last
Legislature. The representation 10 the Con-
yenton is the same as that Of the lower
house of the Legislature. In that body at
the last session the Conservatives had relia.
BILE majority of about forty-two. The result
is considered very important, and the elec.
ton will undoubtedly be much c'oser than
last year.
Both parties seem confident Of securing a
msiority of the delegates, but the chances
seem to be largely in favor OF the Conserva'
tives, who will probably elect not less than
IS of the 120. although there has been less
spirit in the canvass than usual. The anxiety
to know the result is intense, as the ConVen-
ton is charged with the duty of amending
the organic law OF the State.
