Gambettas Trial.

PARIS, August 81. - Gambetta ap
peared to-day before the Civil Tribunal
OF the Seine. The judge read several
passages from the Lille speech, which ne
said constituted his otense against Pres
ideut McManon and his insult 10 the
ministry. NJ Gambetta replied that he
went 10 Lille with the dxea intention 20
deiiver q political speech, which the STU
alton rendered necessary, but he protest
ed strongly thsl he did not intend to
slsnder or insult President McManon.
PARIS, August 31-The Government
has dropped proceedings against Chan
don, Senator for the last LOval, charged
with making political speech at an IL
legal meeting, because he Gained par,la-
mentsry privilege. on the ground that
the Senate having simply adjourned till
the new chamber meets is technically
still in session, and no member can be
prosecuted without its sanction.
The TRANSFER OF proceedings agalns.
Gam BETA from Lille TO Paris Is appar-
emily due TO the discovery by the gov
ment at the last momsnt that the Pro-
gresS Du Nord merely quoted the
speech from the RepubtiQue FraacGtss.
1t is now stated that the Chiet charge
sgai ust Gambetts is exciting hatred be-
tween citizens.
The dissatisfaction At the proceedings
OF the government Is greatly aggravated
by the fact that owing to tn" sudden dis.

RAILROADS CONNECTING THE
BALTIMORE AND OHIO ROAD
With THE CHESAPEAKE AND
"
OHIO.

We transfer 70 the columns of tn,
REGIsTER an article from the columns o
the kanawha Gazette, upon the subjec
mentioned in the title of this article
which we cordially commend to tn
people of Taylor, Upshur, Harrison
Lewis, Brsxton, Clay, Wood and Jack
son counties especially and to the people
OF the whole State generally. The
building of the two roads pointed out il
the article Is the one great need of the
State. aid we believe the enter
prise is entirely practicable. Mar
row guage roads will answer the purpos,
admirably; and road of this character
can be built and equipped for about
$1,000 a mile, as experience proves.
There is not land owner in any one oi
the interior counties but could well afford
to subscribe literally to such an enter
prise. If he has not money, let him give
land. A man with thousand acres can
afford TO donate five hundred OF II
to any company that will build rosd
through or near it. AS it now is, the
commercial value of land in the interior
counties of this State, long
distances from railroads, Is
insignificant With railroads inter
secting those regions, lands would be
doubled, trebled and qusdrupled in value.
We urge upon these people the supreme

the hope that some plan can be devised
BY which some such road can be put un-

Judgment the first important step TO be
taken in this matter, is 10 excite such in-

, most practicable and desirable. Tnese
matters are important as preliminary 20
any outlay in the way Of surveys, and
then discussions by the people and through
the press may lead TO conference be-
tween representative men OF the counties
more Immediately interested in such
roads, and may do much 10 facilitate
their construction. Our OWE belief Is that
at leas. two roads should be built, both
leading from CharlGs s,Or, che to parkers-
burg and tho other TO some point Ia Har-
risIn or Tay lor COUNTIES, aud we see no
reason why both roads cannot be under
taken and pushed to completion slmulta
neously. Both would OF course require
aid from the respective counties through
which they pass, and the only county
which would have TO contribute to both
roads woald be the county OF kAnawhs.
We believe we know the sentiment OF
our people well enough to assert with
COP fidence that the subscription OF S225,-
600 heretofore made to the Elk river
route will, when required, be faithfully
carried out, aud that there Is such inter
est in the ParkeIsburg route that
proposition to subscribe like amount TO
such road would meet with favorable
consideration. The people of Kama
whs county have received the most
satisfactory demonstration IN the
past FIVE years of the value of rail roads
10 country so rich i'll mineral resources
as Ksnawhs county. This value Is At
tested by its increased business and pop
ulation in spite of universal bard times
elsewhere, and we believe our people
fully appreciate that an Investment IN
the roads under consideration amounting
to say half million of dollars would,
brvond doubt, make Aanawba the rich
est, the most populous and prosperous
county in the State. The value of three
roads in Ksnawhs county, two OF them
terminating IN it, cannot be overestl-
mated, and we have no doubt their cO1-
s,ructioa will be readily encouraged 10
the extent Indicated.
it is unneCe SS4ry to enumerate now
the great advantage of the two roads
mentioned TO the respective counties,
other than ksnawha, through which
they will pass. 1t is enough to say that
they will add wealth and influence and
population to each of them, and give to
this section of the State n power in the
affairs of the State which It has never
before exercised.
We attach great Importance to this
subject; indeed we consider 1t the most
important affecting our future interests,
and we, therefore, invite the fullest pos
sible discussion of it, for which purpose
we will publish in our columns any res.
pectful communication bearing upon it.
