Major Green has been directed by
the Executive Committee of the Com,
pany to employ surveyors and laborers
to re-survey the line hence to Shreve-
port at once. He thinks that the new
survey will be commenced by the 10th,
and will be speedily completed. ''-,
1t is probable that the new survey
will differ but little from that known
as the tsBouner survey" and which is
very accurately traced ON Hardee's
map of Louisiana. Major Green thinks
there may be some change in the sur
vey beginning few miles this side Of
Arcadia, so as to avoid the curve
northward begun there, and to get a
better crossing at Lake Bistenau.

Ex-senator Goldwaithe, of Alabama,
was noted for his extreme absent-mind-
edness, and he was occasionally seen
running about the Senate trying to get
out and not being able to find the door.
He would have half the page boys in
the Senate looking for hat or cane,
which would be all the while firmly
clasped in his hand. He was much
given to walking up and down the
lobby, plunged in deep thought, often
smoking fragrant Havana, and entire
ly oblivious of all things about him.
Often some cheeky page of the Senate
would walk up and ask the Senator
for light. Mr.. Goldthwaite would
mechanically hand over his cigar, the
boy would take light, put the choice
weed in his precious mouth and hand
over his old stump to the old gentle
man, who would continue his stroll in
blissful ignorance. It is related on good
authority that, in one Of his fits of alb.
straction, he walked into the Senate
elevator, dropped a nickel into the hole
back ofthe mirror, and calmly requested
to be let out at "I'' street.

The New Orleans Picayune has been

Apropos of the good times come at
last something was said in this column
the other day which went to show that
a very considerable and deserving por-
ton of the American public had not
benefited by the change for the better,
up to date, in the circumstances of
other people. The reason given was
that while the cost of living had adj
vanced, salaries had not been increased.
In support of that proposition, the fol-
lowing table, originally compiled to
prove another fact, is now presented:

These figures show that the average
price of the pleading articles of consump-

cent. within tho last year. That is to
say, one dollar and fifty cents to-day

more than one dollar would have pur-

THE new VIRGINIA SENATOR.
TWaehington poSt.1

Gen. Malone is the Senator-elect
from Virginia for six years from the
4th of March, 1881. Whatever dis
appointment may be felt at the manner
in which this has been accomplished,
however much the feud in the Demo-
cratic party of Virginia may be regrett-
ed, there can be no doubt that on all
national questions General Malone
will come to the Senate Democrat.
There is nothing in his past, nothing
In his recent course. nothing in the po-
sitiOn ne has assumed in relation to the
State debt question or other matters of
a local character that is calculated to
raise even a suspicion of his fidelity to
Democratic principles and his cordial
afhliation with the National Demo-
cratic party. He is man of strong
convictions, earnest In his purposes and
direct in his methods. No man who
knows him doubts that in leading the
readjusting movement in the recent
exciting campaign, he took the side
proved, and was sustained by the be-
lief that he was doing that which,
under the circumstances, ought to be
done. We differ materially from him
in our views as to the justice and policy
of eadjustment-nor have we seen
reasons to change-but we do not know
that his motives can be questioned.
A man of Gen. Mahone's strength OF
character and vigor of intellect will oc.
cupy prominent position even in the
United States Senate. There is nothing
in his mental makeup that is sugges-
tive of mediocrity. A sound logician
and ready debater, clear in his percep-
ton, and an indefatigable worker, he
will do good service for his State and
country. All who cast their ballots for
him yesterday understood that they
were sending a Democrat to the Senate.
The Republicans who supported him
did so with a clear understanding that
there was no lack of cordial harmony
ON all national questions between him
and the Democratic leaders in both
houses of Congress.
