Correspondence OF the Baltimore Gazette
R.M>-rN "a Y .InnmnrN lALh

RoMNEY, W. VA, January :, 1875.
Since my last communication to your
columns. the railroad to this place has
been progressing as rapidly rs the
weather has permitted. 1t appears prob
able that it will be opened To this place
hv early spring. Meanwhile its cngi-
neers have completed their experimental
survey on the eastern bank of the Poto-
mac to Mooretield, Hardy county, dist
ance of about twenty-three miles. by u
practicable, desirable and most direct
route. Mooreteld is but eight or ten
miles north of the last summers great
discoveries of iron ore in Middle Noun
tain. The ore there is of such rich yield
and vast abundance that Its opening Will
insure the largest and most economical
manufactures OF iron in this region at
no distant day. 1t is destined to afford
to the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
panv supplies of the best iron adequate
To all its wants. a few days age gen
tlemsn from Hardy presented me a small
cabinet sample of lead. ore-the very
best gslena-lately discovered near More
field. Ifit proves sufficient in quantity,
il will greatly add to the mineral wealth
of this region. 1t rs probably argcnti-
ferrous, rendering it yet moro valuable.
The great resources, especially mineral
and timber, TO be developed in this re-
pion. render its exploration by scientific
Examiners and agents of capitalists most
desirable. The weather has been rather
favorable and mild thus far, and the
prospects before us of Il brighter future
rather fattering. The cutoff from New
Creek CKeyser City to our South Branch
Railway is greatly desired by our people
and will prove finestimable value to the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.

The mississippi Investigation.

VIcKsBuRG, January 9.-The greater
portion of the session Of tue Congressioh
al Committee to-day was devoted 10 the
examination of legal and documentary
evidence in connection with the troubles
between the taxpayers and colored
Judre Cowan, City Attorney, being ex-
smined al great length, said Crosby had
no legal right to issue the call under
which the colored men marched on the
CITY, and that the Judge Of the Circuit
Court had authority to appoint success
or to Crosby when he resigned.
The entire records Of the Board Of Su-
peryisors in connection with Crosby were
examined and made part of the record.
Judge Arthur, ex-City Judge, said that
in 1873 black justice OF the peace brought
suit against member of the I Nj. c. A.
under the State civil rights bill for re-
fusing TO admit him to hear
some lecture; he decided against the
colored men and colored people; held u
mass meeting denouncing him, and
passed resolution asking him TO resign.
Lucinda Henry, colored, testified that
the night after the fight, u party OF
o: whites came to her store on Cherokee
street after gun; abused and mistreated
her; threatened to burn her house, and
took gun.
c. Cordwent, a British subject owning
Il large plantation eight miles out on the
Hazoo river, swore that on the morning
of the fight cOlored constable named
Belt came to his place, and ordered all
the negroes to come to town armed,
which .they:refused. Cordwent express
cd i'll positive terms his disgust at both
State and Federal governments.
The Committee then adjourned until
Monday.
A member gives his opinion that the
will continue until the lat
ter part Of tho week.

Keportofthc Louisiana COMMITTEE

WAsBlyGroy. January I0-The sub
committee appointed by the House
special committee on Southern affairs,
and which has been investigating matters
in Louisiana for some weeks past, return
ed 10 Washington last night. Its MEM
hers Forster, Phelps and Potter, are
necessarily reticcnt rs to giving EXPIRES
sion to their views in advance OF the re-
port Of the full committee, now being
preparcd. Enough is known now, how
ever, to authorize the statement that
there is no conflict of op on among the
members Of the subcommittee as to the
p-n .ipal points in controversy. Inc ac-
ton otthc returning board in throwing OFT
certain parishes in which Conservatives
were elected aud in giving certificates 10
some Republicans who were not elected
will be- condemned aS Illegal and unwar-
| ranted exercise Of authority.
The testimony taken before the Com
/ mittee does sustain the charges of vio-
1 lcnce and intimidation towards negro
voters. but rather tends to establish the
| fact that large numbers of negroes voted
the Democratic ticket from conviction
that in SO doing they were
advancing their own lntereS:S
and the interests Of the State Its Il
matter Of conjecture what course
of policy the committee will recommend
but the probabilities are that it will b.
in the direction of II new election. The
excitement in New Orleans when the
committee left that city, was intense, but
there was no likelihood whatever of its
being manifested in any general out
break. The Kellogg government Is sub
mitted to only under the pressure Of the
military power Of the United States, and
in expectation md belief that Congress
will devise and adopt measure that Will
restore the commonwealth to the control
of its own citizens.
