There we're no southern combinations 81
nominations to-day. ~ IS .5,.
THE committees made no progress In the
Louisiana Returning Board Investigate lon.
The clerks appear to have merely copied
and compiled such returns Ms reached them
from the office OF the Board, where It's pri.
vate sessions were held. q af,s'...5.s,
Senator Gordon, who has been suffering
from severe indisposition for several days
past, was an advocate Of the bill recently
introduced by him to create sinking fund
for the liquidation OF the Indebtedness due
the Government by the Pacific railroads.
On account OF his physical condition he was
unable to treat the subject as fully as he de-
sired. After leaving the Senate he had o
severe chill, and Ia again confined to his
bed tonight, but his physician hopes to
have him out in a day or two. q - ~
The impression seems to have been Gre
ated in some quarters that the bill now be-
fore;the Senate Is connected with tile Texas
Pacific bill now pending before the House
of Representatives. Such is not the case.
The bill before the Senate has reference
solely to Indebtedness due from the Pacific
railroads already completed, that offered by
General Gordon being a substitute for the
bill reported by the Judiciary Committee.
. Chafee, a Hayes elector Of Illinois, was
undoubtedly United States commissioner
for the Southern district OF Illinois when
elected and when he voted for Hayes. The
electoral law, however, when there is only
one return, precludes question unless both
houses agree.

MECKLENBURG COUNTY.

CABBAGE FARM, VA. February /, 1877.
Editors Richmond Dispatch: This is the
great tobacco-growing portion OF the State.
We must either make tobacco or be content
not to handle any money, and as conse-
quence our farmers go largely in for tobacco.
Owing TO three causes-scarclty OF plants,
lack OF seasons, and the raYages Of the
worm-the tobacco crop in this section was
very Indifferent. Not more than one third
OF crop was made, and the quality OF q
large portion OF it is very inferior.
The weather for the last week has been
fine, and our farmers are quite busy burn
ing plant-land. Last years failure has not
discouraged them. ,
Our public schools are just now opening,
and am disposed to think that the average
attendance at them will be good, for the
people seem to take an interest in the pub
lie schools.
Immediately after the presidential cleo
ton the people were very much excited
over the result, and were exceedingly anx-
ious 10 know who was elected; but they
seem, in Il measure, to have lost the interest
in the result which they once had; but l
tell you they are yet strong for Tilden, and
sincerely hope that, in spite OF Radical ras-
cality, returning boards, and hallot-box
stufing, he will be inaugurated, let Messrs.
Morton, Cameron, Chandler Il Co. say what
they will or act as they. may; and once more
our country will prosper, trade will revive,
and our people be made happy. Tom.

CONTESTED WILL CASE COMPROMISED
Last September Mr.. Henry D. Didier, OF
Hartford, Conn, died somewhat suddenly
at st. MiehaePs, Talbot county, Md, and
on his death-bed made 4 will bequeathing to
Miss Mary Tenant, bis relative, life in
terest in certain specified life-insurance
policies, and the reversion thereofto 'sChrist
parish, st. Michael's, Talbot county -
meaning thereby Christ church, st. Mi
chael's parish. Mr. Didier's widow con-
tested the will on the grounds OF undue III
fuences, incompetency to make will. and
an illegal informally in the terms OF the re-
MISSIONARY bequest to "Cbrist parish"
Last week the widow proposed compro-
mise by which the will should stand, she
taking her legal third Of the estate, the YES
try taking $4,000, and giving bond to pay
MISS Tenant 1920 q year for life, the costs

THE PUNISHMENT OF MIDHAT PASTA.
LONDON, February 1.-THE correspond
emit of the Standard Mt Constantinople says
sEMidhat Pasha's Punishment has produced
aprofoundly-painful feeling. There is gen.
eral gloom and depression, and more un-
easiness and RECONCILIATION than for many
months. My, own very earnest feeling is

The Manchester, Guardians special dis
patch from London says Public ,rumor at
taches so much importance to Emergencies
between the Marquis Of Salisbury and Earl
Beaconsville that it is stated tonight that
Lord Salisbury has resigned. To say the
least, this is premature; though people well
informed consider that the danger OF the
Government respecting the Eastern ques-
ton is quite as great within the Cabinet as
on the opposition side OF the house.
