SCHEDULE.
Il. & D. & G. S. R. R., Decatur Divis'n

A Washington special to the Cou-
rier- Journal says it is understood
that the much talked of resolution
of investigation will be offered in a
day or two in the House of Repre-
sentatives. Representative Potter,
it is supposed, will offer the
resolution. The plan most ia
vored is to have the resolution of
fered in the House as a question OF
high privileges, in view of the
power of the House over the sub
ject of impeachment. 1t is true
that Mr.. Hayes cannot be i'm
peached for acts done prior to his
taking the oath of office; but it is
alleged in this connection that he
has condoLed the frauds which
were practiced in order to secure
his election, and made appoint
ments TO Office and given recon
mendations based upon the personal
knowledge that the persons thus
specially benefited were agents and
actors in this nefarious business.
Such is the allegation of Mr.. Hayes
Republican enemies. 1t is said
that Dennis, of Florida, will thus
testify. 1t is also reported that
Packard is about to make full rev
citation of the Louisiana iniquities.
The object of the resolution is to
Investigate and establish the facts
of the case. There is no agreed
policy to upset Hayes title to the Of
fee, which was declared by the two
houses of Congress. This the Dem
ocrats generally accept as a finality.
Republicans are greatly discomfort
ed by the proposed line of investi-
cation. 1t is rumored now that
they will try to meet it by u coun
ter-move to investigate the election
of 1876 in Alabama and Mississippi,
alleging the old story of intimlda-
tion. The introduction of the in
vestigation resolution will make a
grand excitement. The investiga-
ton itself, once begun, will be con
tinued during the summer, and will
take wide range.

We publish this morning another
interesting letter from our es-
teemed Washington correspondent,
j. L. I. AS sensible writer he
does not pretend to compete with
the telegraph in sending news, but
gives the drift of public opinion on
measures Of great national concern,
and discusses subjects of practical
interests in style that is very at
tractive to the reader. Formerly q
resident of Cincinnati, and since of
st. Louis, he has grown old in the
West but with heart still young
in all good sentiments and impulses,
and pen eloquent ir advocacy of
such great measure of public poll
cy as are essential to the welfare of
the West and South Daily Dem
ocrat, Dayton, Ohio.
Most heartily do we endorse the
compliment above bestowed on our
own correspondent. he is 9 gentle
man far above the average Washing
ton correspondent. He is not the
tool of any ring or party, but the
stsunch friend of the South and
West, and a most earnest, eloquent
and honest advocate of their united
interests. We point to his letters
for a proof of what we say.

Washington special to Cincinnati
Enquirer: "The Florida revelations
have been quietly and thoroughly
canvassed among Democrats, and it
has been decided to investigate the
whole subject Of the Presidential
election. The Judiciary Committee
have had under consideration the
possibility that Senator Gordon
Lamar and others, and Representa-
tives Randall, Gibson, E. Jno. Ellis,
John Young Brown and ex-Con
gresham Hancock may be shown
up in an unenviable light, but mem
bers incline to the opinion that, no
matter who is damaged, the investi-
CATION should be proceeded with.
1t may be ten days or two weeks
before a resolution will be offered.
1t is said that leading Democrats
are in possession of evidence which
will show conclusively that Tilden
carried Florida by four hundred
majority.

We think we perceive in the de-

heels SO fast they follow. Eliza

BILE other frauds with confessions

lect of the chairman OF the Ways
and Means devise plan by which a
Mofett bell punch can be attached
to a quickened conscience, and thus
accomplish the two-fold object of
adding the "quickening" business
to the recognized industries of the
country, and at the same time turn
a Pactolean stream into the public
Treasury?- Washington Post.

Tennessee Lands.

Commissioner Killebrew received,
yesterday, letter from New York,
making inquiry regarding Tennes-
see lands. The following is an ex-
tract:
81 have occasional calls for Ten
nessee lands. A gentleman asked
me to day if l could tell him where
he could buy a good blue grass
farm in Middle Tennessee worth
from $4,000 to $4,000. He is in
earnest and intends to move to Ten
nessee. Send me descriptions of
some of the places on your books.
Can you furnish me in one body from
10000 to $4,000 acres of land? If
so, L can find a purchaser, if the
land can be handled cheap. To
give you an idea of what a mania
there is for Southern lands, put
an advertisement in the Herald last
Sunday, Tennessee lands for SALE
and l have seventy-two letters in
reply"
