A number OF the stockholders of the
New Jersey Central are reported as in
favor OF consolidating with the Lehigh
Navigation Company as the best means
OF escaping from their pressing embar-
easements. 1t is proposed that preferred
stock shall be issued to stockholders of
the Lehigh Company in full for It's cap
lsal, and that the common stock of the
consolidated company shall be issued to
the holders of the stock of both the other
companies as well as holders of the foat.
ing debt of both. Shareholders fear un.
less such course is taken there will be
foreclosure by bondholders, which
might wipe out the entire property Of
both. 1t is argued that the earnings Of
the consolidated line would be ample +,
pay interest and dividends on the pre-
tsrred stock.

Central sold for sl05 share, and tn,
Company paid quarterly dividends @

A fighting Abolitionist, with an army
at his back. has appeared in Africa near
the equator, under the authority of the
Khedive of Egypt. Col. Gordon is the
man and to him has been given absolute
power over that vast region of Africa
known as the Soudan, as well as over the
provinces Of the equator and the coast
of the Red Sea. A despatch cabled to us
this morning gives some of his words,
which look serious "It will not be my
fault" he says, "if slavery does not cease,
and il these countries are not open to
the world" Slavery" he adds, "must
cease if the man ho holds the Soudan
is against it, He himself alleges that
his authority is absolute, and so it may
be inferred that he will make it felt
against the Arabian slave traders, who
have for centuries made the equatorial
| regions their hunting ground. Col. Go!
don has Of late years won renown in the
service of tue Egyptian khedive. He is
the man who was recently named By the
London Times to govern the Christian
provinces of Turkey. The Times ext )lleC
him as born ruler CT men, as the one
man who now stood out in the world as
pre-eminently fit to govern, control anc
pacify turbulent populations-at once
skillful statesman and a conquering sol
dler. His achievements in Africa hav,
certainly been remarkable. and, if he ful
ills the promises he now makes, ne will
deserve to be known as the trium mphan'
aboitionist Of the equator.

HOW HONEST OHIO DEMOCRATS
REGARD HAYES.


From The Cleveland Pldindedler.
Several Of the leading Democrats Of
Columbus have been invited 10 unite in
an ovation to Hayes before his departure
fer Washington. The object Of the Re-
publicans ia tolmake it appear as unpar-
tisan- as Lpossihle; but as far as heard
from, the proposition has met with just
indignation from the Democrats who
have been approached. This little item
is forrunner OF the treatment which
Mr.. Hayes may expect to receive from
the hands Of honest Democrats through
out his administration. A man who
would accept the Presidential Office
tainted with fraud, is unworthy to re-
ceive any tokens of respect. Issturnmg
Board Hayes will have aught else than
kindly feelings and sympathies from the
great mass Of the people. -4 q. ''

WASHINGTON. March 2.-David Dudley
Fields quo warranto bill was done to
death in the house of its friends tonight
1t appeared really to have no earnest
supporter but himself. 1t required twe-
thirds vote to pass the bill and it did not
receive q majority. During the discus
sion Mr.. Field got some pretty hard
knocks of q personal. character. One
democratic member had an amendment
to offer to the effect that the jury before
whom the case was to be tried should
consist of fifteen members of whom
seven should be majority. With the
defeat of this bill ends all hope which
Mr.. Tilden may have had Of attaining to
the presidency. 1t is true that under the
common law he might appeal to the
courts in this District, but he has said
that would be o hopeless undertaking in
view fthe well-known partisanship of
the Tilden campaign, and for the third
time has the national democracy lost the
with New York candidate.

mourning over the appalling calamity wit
messed in Washington yesterday, and ex-
plains the cause of its drapped columns,
in the following tfuthful and appropriate
paragraph:
These are days of humiliation, shame,
and mourning for every patriotic Ameri-
can. A man whom the people rejected
at the polls, has been declared President
of the United States, through processes of
fraud. A cheat is to sit in the seat of
George Washington.
Let every upright citizen grid himself
up for the work of redressing this mon
strous iniquity. No truce with the guilty
conspirators! No rest for them and no
mercy, till political punishment and des-
truction are complete!
