At the same time, we have no doubt
that the Louisville road will build
the Georgia Western. Mr.. New
comb has shown himself too shrewd
a man not to be willing to have
'two strings to his bow" and it is
to the interest of the East Tennes-
see managers to unite with him.
The Western and Atlantic lease
is only for ten years longer, and
there is very considerable party
in Georgia in favor of selling the
road. The state now gets 100000
per annum rent, and, at an
equivalent rate, by sale, she
could retire full two, thirds of her
whole state debt. How soon the
legislature may order this sale no
one knows; hence Mr.. Newcomb is
shrewd to have a competing line
ready should the Western and At
lantic fall into unfriendly hands.
Then Messrs. McGhee and Wilson
bought the Macon and Brunswick,
with contract to extend to Atlanta.
As a mere investment it was good
purchase, but they looked further.
The East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia owns the railroad from
Dalton to the Alabama state line,
| built as part of the Selma, Rome
and Dalton. Neither did these
, managers know how soon the Vests
) ern and Atlantic might fall into
foreign hands and line from At
, lanta to Rome would make them in
, dependent. Look at an accurate
map of Georgia and it will be seen
| that the road from Dalton to the
Alabama river runs nearly south,
and that road from Atlanta to that
point would be very little longer
than the Western and Atlantic from
Dalton to Atlanta, while it would
tap one of the richest sections OF
Georgia, and further that it would
be but little out of direct line from
Atlanta to Blount Springs on the
Louisville and Nashville road
Hence it is plain that Messrs. VIII
son and McGhee have interests mu'
. tually common with those of the
E Louisville road and a combination
between them is of that character
likely to be permanent. Their in
terests do not conflict, they harmon
ize, each seeks the same object with.
out probability of conflict when that
object is obtained.
AS to the Nashville and Chat
. tanooga road, which may seem to be
left out in this new building arrange
ment, it will take care of itself, even
as mere local road it can be made
profitable, for it passes through the
best part of the state of Tennessee,
and with Gov. Porter at its head
can not fail to be both popular an(
we'll managed.

THE RAILROAD MAP OF TO.
DAY.

|
United States has there been SO
many and SO rapid changes in the
ownership of railroads. We of the
south look especially at the gigan>
tic strides of the Louisville and
Nashville, but as grand moves have
been made in the north and west.
A few weeks ago, in the lull that
followed on the announcement of
the contract between the Louisville
road and the Georgia lines, many
thought that the end had come.
The clear~headed and cautious man
ayers of the East Tennessee, Vir>
GINA and Georgia road bought the
Macon and Brunswick road, for
what purpose many of their best
friends wondered. But again the
storm breaks forth; first, the an
nouncement that Moses Taylor, the
real owner of the Cen
trail Road of Georgia, had
bought Coles shares in
the Western and Atlantic lease,
which, with those already owned by
the Central, gives the control o
that road. Then the announce
ment that Newcomb, after playing
with the Central contract for a few
weeks, will throw it aside, and
uniting with Messrs. Wilson ant
McGhee, will build the Georgia
Western from Atlanta to the line Of
the North and South road, al
Blount Springs. And rumors fill
the air that, through Mr.. Foreacre
the Atlanta and Charlotte Air Line
has bought the Maryville road, it,
Blue Ridge connection in South
Carolina, and will build it through
from Toccoa to Clayton and thence
through North Carolina to Knox
vile. Among the grand incidents
not the least is that ex>Gov. Porte
has been offered, and accepted
the presidency of the Nashville
Chattanooga and St. Louis road.
| But few who know Gen. Wadley
of the Central Of Georgia, will be
surprised that he should demand un
usual terms in contract, or that il
an opportunity offered whereby he
thought to benefit the Central he
would plan to evade or break ar
agreement. He simply lives for and
| in what he deems the interests of the
Central; is the sole head of that road
and runs it on the onesman~power
principle, which is really the only
course by which a railroad can be
made profitable and prosperous. If
it is his interest to ally with the
Louisville and Nashville he will do
it, if the Cincinnati Southern, he
would unhesitatingly drop the
former; but he is too good railroad
man to offend either. No one knows
better than he that his road can not
afford to drop the st. Louis and far
western trade. Neither can the
Louisville and Nashville afford to
deaden the Nashville and Chats
tanooga by diverting all its
traffic over the Nashville and De-
catur road. Hence, may be taken
with many, grains of allowance the
inference that there is a misunder-
standing, or the rumblings of a
coming rupture between the Central
and the Louisville and Nashville.

that there was base fraud in the whole matter
yet he afterwards decided that these certili-

deliberately violated it, for he and his breth-
rem did not pretend to go behind the returns.

In conclusion note the difference between
the two great parties
The Democratic party believe that both
the national and State governments are SOW
ereign in their own sphere, and that the con
filming of each to the exercise of its own pow
er is necessary to the stability of the whole
political fabric. The Republican party mag
nifies the sovereignty of the federal govern
ment and tries to draw State affairs entirely
under its own supervision and control
Mr.. Trumbull was Republican until the
close of the war. When he saw the glory of
the Republican party fade and its power used
for the aggrandizement of individuals and
not for the prosperity of the restored Union,
he left the party. Now he is identified with
the Democratic party and is one of its most
honored members.

Hartford County Teachers Association

The association held brief business session on
Monday afternoon, adjourning to 7.30 p. NJ, at
which time large and appreciative audience had
gathered. The exercises, interspersed with music
by the choir, consisted of readings by Miss Spad-
ing and Miss Miller, an essay by j. w. Burkins,
"Teachers Associations" and q defamation by j.
L. Harry.
Rev. Il. A. Colburn, of Churchville then deliv-
cred an interesting and spicy address, full of gol
den words and wise counsel to teachers for which,
on motion of J. A. Calhoun, vote of thanks was
rendered.
A business meeting was again held on Tuesday
at p. M. A resolusion, introduced by j. d.
Worthington, that whereas we are DESTROYS that
the present school year shall be at least as long as
the last, and whereas the resources of the county
School Board are less than the preceding year.
therefore
ReS0iyed by us the Public School Teachers of
Hartford county that we will make ms light rs pos
sible all expenses under our control, and that we
will use all fair means, directly and indirectly,
singly and collectively, to have sufficient levy
made the coming year to continue the schools the
full scholastic year. This resolution was consid-
erably discussed, and on motion, laid over for
further discussion. The exercises of the evening
consisted of reading by Misses Ofliey and Beemar,
defamation by Q. W. l,urklns and an address, by
Rev. W. II. Cooke, of Havre de Grace. Mr..
Cookies subject was "Consoation for Teachers"
and was an able presentation of the subject.

Shure's Landing.



1t has been dry, beyond precedent, in this vicin-
ity. The crops are perishng for the want of rains;
wells and springs that were never known to go dry
before, are now destitute of water. In many in
stances persons have to haul water long distance.
THE RIVER.
The river is as low it generally gets, with the
exception of the low water 1919 and 1872 In those
years it was lower than ever known. At present
the river can be seen to an advantage. Rocks and
small groups of islands are numerous. In some
places ii is almost possible to walk across the river
on the rocks. Tho scenery is very picturesque
and romantic.
BRIEFS.
Fish of all kinds with the exception of black
bass, are scarce in our waters.
Canal boats are making fast trips as boats are
scarce and freight plentiful.
Tho Port and Columbia Railroad Company fail
to make any connection with trains for Baltimore.
The next legislature, perhaps, may appoint anoth-
or committee to force connection.
FAST TIME.
The canal boat "Thomas Wilson," of Havre dc
Grace, Capt. Crowley, made the best time now on
record. 1t left Havre de Grace on Thursday
went to Wrightsville, loaded with coal for Balti-
more, made the trip and returned to wrightsville;
again loaded and was at Havre de Grace on tho
following Saturday. The time in making the trips
was days, the distance being over 300 miles.

The Change i'm the Republican Party

Hon. Lyman Trumbull, Democratic cand-
date for Governor of Illinois, addressed an
assemblagc of 10000 at Bclleville, ILL.,, on Au-
gust 30th. He thoroughly discussed the
principles involved in the present campaign,
and presented the case in singularly clear
and forcible manner
The inquiry whether there was anything
in the the present attitude of parties which
required Republican of 1856 or 1860 to sup
port that party, was answered as follows
The National Republican Convention of
1860 adopted, among others, the following
resolutions in substance: The maintenance
inviolate of the rights of the States and de-
nunciation of the lawless invasion by an
armed force, of the soil of any State or Ter
ritory, and second, it recommended economy
in every department of the government; Sc
vercly condemned the reckless extravaganza
then so prevalent, and distinctly asserted that
II change of administration was impcrativcly
demanded. How many of these principles
have the Republican party carried outY The
planks of the platform of 1860 have been
most unblushingly rcpudiatcd by the Rcpub-
lican party of to-day, AS for restoring the
government TO the principles of Washington
and Jefferson the recognition of the rights
of the States; the rigid economy they incul-
Gated or the change of administration-their
most prominent leaders have opposed all eff
forts to restore the government to the prnci-
plies of Washington and Jefferson. They
have, when ii seemed best to Them quartered
armed troops in at least two States in open
defiance of the Constitution, while the reck-
less extravaganza of the party now in power
has exceeded anything before known since
the foundation of the Republic.
Mr. Buchanan's administration, SO held up
to scorn by Republicans, was at an annual
expense of little over S650OO,OOO General
Grants administration cost the country an
nually $l70,0OO,OO0.
The Republican party claims to have sup
pressed the rebellion, This is shown to be
false from what we have just said, because
the party under which these great deeds were
performed was different, and controlled by
other principles. Had the Democrats favor
cd the rebellion, as has been falsely charged
by the other party, the Union must have per-
ished from the earth.
The interference of the federal government
in elections in the States was never attempt
ed before 1870, and IL affords another instance
of the violation of the Constitution, and a
very palpable one, too.
Gen. Garfield stultified himself completely
in the matter of the Electoral Commission

clearly unconstitutional, yet afterwards serv-

as candidates for nomination. After several
recesses and the taking of 2S1 ballots it was
found that Stump stood 4, Constable and
Talbot 6, the same us at the beginning
Another recess was taken, when it was found
that Carroll would split and give Talbot
and Stump 2, and that Cecil would then jump
to Stump and nominate him. AS soon as
this situation was realized Mr. Talbot de-
cided that he would make the nominee, and
after hurried conference with his supper
tiers the game was called.
At 8 o'clock, when the convention reas-
sembled, VIM. Parks, of Baltimore county,
nominated DIR. Francis T. Shaw, of Carroll
county, for Congress, and the nomination
was received with shouts of applause.
Mr. Crowthers, of Cecil, moved to make
the nomination unanimous by reclamation
which was done amidst great enthusiasm.
DR.. Shaw who was present, was called to
the front, and he spoke with emotion. He
said the nomination came unsolicited, and he
would accept it only as a compromise and in
behalf of peace in the ranks of the Democrat
ic party of the second district.
Messrs. Stump, Constable and Talbot fol
lowed, pledging an earnest support to the
nomination, after which the convention adj
journed.
