Railroad Interests.

Gov. kemper has sent message to both
branches of the General Assembly callinsat-
tention to the danger which threatens the
States interest in the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad through probable decree from the
Circuit Court Of the city of Richmond fer
the sale OF the road, etc. The remedy sug-
gested by the Governor is to claim and en-
force forfeiture OF the road to the State by
the failure of the company to observe the
conditions Of its charter and the terms OF the
contract between the States OF Virginia and
West Virginia on the one part and the Vir
ginia Central Railroad Company on the 9TH
er, which contract the Chesapeake and Ohio
Company assumed. The matter has gone to
committees for investigation, etc., and joint
resolution has been adopted instruc.ing the
Attorney General to request suspension of
the proceedings before the court until til.
General Assembly can consider the matter
and take such action as may be necessary.
Gen. Wickiiam, the receiver of the Ctesa-
apeallc and Ohio Railroad, appears in COM
munication in the Dispatch, meeting and
denying all the points made by the Governor,
and rather tartly critiicsng the spirit in which
the message was written. He denies emphat-
ically that there has been any forfeiture on
the part of the company by reason of nom
compliance with the terms Of transfer, and
asserts that the terminus Of the road at Hun
tington is not il; conflict with the stpula-
tions. Tie also charges that the Governor has
.reatly overstated the expenditure of the
State on the Improvement His statements are
a complete refutatioI OF the grounds upon
which the Governor bases his message

Another Madman.

Dom PEtt. editor of the Washington
Cdplfai, weekly paper, is getting himself
into trouble. His paper has been very ex-
IRENE during the progress of the count Of
the Electoral vote, and on Sunday last, COM
menting on tile decision of the Commission
in the case Of Louisiana, substantially urged
the assassination Of Gov. Hayes. The e(li-
torial contains this sentence: IF Il man thus
returned to power can ride in safety from
the Executive Mansion to the Capitol to be
inauguratcd, We are fitted for the slavery
chat will follow the Inauguration. If there
is law for fraud, there is reason in violence,
and to that we make our appeal
In another article of the same issue. he
says:
'When Mr.. Paekard's hour (of assassna-
tion) arrives, with that OF his associate usllrp-
ers and thieves, His Excelency 1T the other
end OF the avenue will have full and I'M
questioned notice. We know that the work
will te in competent hands, and we promise
the oppressed people Of South Carolina and
Louisiana to keep the army busy enough at
the North to leave them free to settle their
local AFFAIRS
The incendiary character OF the article at
tracted great deal Of attention and created
considerable excitement. The law officers
of the government we're called in consulta-
ton, and determined that the sedtious sem
timents uttered were Just grounds for indict-
ment in the District Court 1t is said that
the President was very indignant when in
formed of the nature of the article. A dis
patch Of the 10Th, says that it is mentioned
upon the highest official authority that the
President had determined upon the prosecu-
ton of Don Piatt for libel and also for sed-
tious writing, indictable under both common
and statutory law. District Attorney Wells
had examined the matter and Piatt's arrest
been determined upon.
The leading Southern members OF Con-
gress, having had their attention called to
the editorials, denounced them in unmcas-
ured terms, and repudiated all sympathy
with the reasonable sentiments.

Clearing Up.

Hon. \. S. Hewitt, chairman OF the De.
mocratic National Committee, utterly repu-
dates the dispatches sent from and to Ora.
mercy Park from Oregon. lie asserts that
he never sent or received cypher dispatch,
and knew nothing about the attempt to pur-
chase Il vote in Oregon. He further said
chat he had seen the key to the cyphcr wi tn
Pelton, that Pelton was q member OF Til
denis household, and sits at his table. The
dispatches were all sent to Mr.. Tidcn's pri-
vate residence, and not to the democratic
headquarters. Mr.. Hewitt is evidently in
dgnant and Disguised at the exposure. and
desires to wash his hands OF the disgraceful
transaction.
Senator Kelley says he did not know the
contents Of the, cypher dispatch sent from
Oregon by Patrick to Pelton, which he en-
1orsed, proposing to purchase an electoral
vote with $4,000, if it was furnished. He
says Patrick deceived him.
1t is a very muddy business throughout,
and we are not surprised that all concerned
who cap, are trying to wash their hands of
it. Grover, too, has disclaimed the dispatch
sent to Tilden. But Tildep and Pclton have
to stand. They cannot get ou5 of it. They
and endeavored to execute a fraud
to secure q vote. They have been caught.
Thus ends the Presidential career Of the
great Reformef.

Attemnted Assassination.

On the 18th inst, an attemptwas made to
assassinate Governor Packard, of Louisiana.
While sitting in his Office talking to a friend,
a man was admitted on his card. representing
himselfasa correspondent OF the Philadelphia
Press. He took 4 seat to the left OF the Gov
ernor, and attracted Mr.. Packard's attcn-
ton by asking him sharply, "whcn he could
see him." Packard turned his head to-
ward him, and found . pistol pointed at his
head. He knocked it down aud struck the
assassin in the face, telling him to the floor,
the pistol went OF, the bullet penetrating Mr..
Packard knee, and inllicting flesh wound.
The assassin was shot in the arm by a by
stander, who would have killed him, but fer
the interference of tie Governor.
The mans name is W IT. Weldon, Il ma
tive of Philadelphia, and the son of q highly
respected minister OF the gospel. He was
more recently clerk or salesman in Mo
bile. He had but recently came to New Or
leans, and gave evidence of having been dis
sipating. There are several statements in
respect to the affair One is that Weldon
was one OF gang, pledged to assassnate
prominent Republicans of the South, for pay.
Another theory is, that he had become I'M
hinged in his mind from the effect of dissi-
patton, and bearing it repeated by Demo-
Gratis that Packard ought to be killed, con-
ceived the drunken Thought Of carrying the
expression into effect. We are inclined to
think that W.ltlna acted upon this su.ges-
ton, formed Willie in a state OF lunacy, and
proceeded To its execution without really
Knowing wlar he was doing. Ii is possible that
it was otherwise. but in charity, we are dis
posed to accept that construction, and not
to attribute TO the political opponents OF
Packard 4 deliberate conspiracy to take his
fife.
Further, development may throw more
light On the matter l. is said Weldon ex-
pressed his gratitude foi the intervention Of
Gov Packard. by which his life was saved.
and Il desire to see BIN. 1t is further stated
that he intends to make an exposure which
would implicate prominent Democrats in a
plot to take Packard's life. We await the
facts before expressing an opinion.

Southern Representatives.

The position taken by leading Southern
democrats in Congress, i'll relation to the
decision OF the Commission to Count the
Electoral Vote, is exceedingly gratifying,
and Indicates that they have become salts
fed with the treacherous and selfish purposes
OF the Northern Tldcn Democracy. Lamar,
Reagan, Hill, Brown, of Ky. and other men
OF like prominence in tie Southern States,
have shown q conservative and law abiding
purpose that stands out i'll striking contrast
TO the revolutionary outgivings of such men
as Randall, Springer, Walling and others Of
the North and West. and promises q rup-
ture that cannot but have powerful effect
upon parties in the South. II s>belcycd in
Washington that the more conservative of
the democratic congressman from the South
will give Gov. Hayes an earnest support,
upon the basis Of his letter OF acceptance,
and that the result will be the formation of
IN administrative party in the Southern
States. that will effectllally break down Sec
tiolal and race lines. and revive the greater
part OF the old Wing party, and unite it
with The Republican party in support of the
Incoming administration.
Nothing could be more favorable to the
Interests OF the South than such course
upon the part of these gentlemen. They
will be joined by following composed of
the best men OF their section-men who
have teen acting with TIE democratic party
from compnlsion. and who would willingly
and gladly identify themselves with the ad-
,ninistration. as 4 neans of restoring peace
and prosperity to tile Southern States. Here
in the Valley Of Virginia we have met and
conversed with number of gentlemen, who
were earnesa supporters Of Tilden. who have
declared their purpose to support the adj
sninistrat:on OF Gov. Hayes, not that they
are Republicans, bnt because they believe
he will give them an honest, liberal and
Just administration. They see the absolute
necessity Of aban.I0nin. the sectional position
that thy have becu forced to occupy by the
extreme men Of the democratic party North
and South. They recognize that it is sGici-
etal to be arraying themselves against the
government to crafty tile bad ambition of
designing place hunters, and that the future
sof the Soath depends upon liberaizing the
political feeling and ideas OF the people.
Although the country has been tried and
alas suffered by reason of the complications
growing out Of the Presidential contest, il
tic result shall be the emancipation Of the
people from the rule CT sectional and revo-
autionary Democracy AZ now constituted, in
the Southern States, we shall regard the
ordeal through which we have passed, as
and designed for the good |
OF the people OF the Southern States.
