THE SrorroRD: KELLOGG Casa
telegram from Washington, dated April
10, says: The Democratic Senators met
in caucus at 1890 O'Clock this morning,
and remained in session until o'clock
p. m. The question of taking up the
Spofford- Kellogg case was the subject
under consideration, and the discussion
continued with a good deal of animation
and spirit. Baysrd, Lamar, Garland,
Herman and others spoke against the
present consideration of the Kellogg
case while Salisbury, Hill, Vance and
Jones again insisted that it ought to be
brought before the Senate for action
without delay. The arguments pro and
con were much tue same as those of yes
terday and the day before, except that
even more determination was shown to-
day by the advocates of immediate &C.
ton. 1t was also openly suggested that
a proposition to unseat Kellogg and seat
Spofford could not be adopted, because
there were Democratic Senators who
would vote against it. Hill said: Every
we'll, let them vote against it. The COM
mittee had done its duty, and it now re-
mained for the Senate to perform its
duty. No matter what the vote might
be, he insisted upon the case being dis
posed Of, and in regard to its possible
effect upon the Presidential election, be
said that it ought not to deter the Senate
from disposing of the case" Finally
the resolution was adopted by ma
iority of three, providing chat the
Geneva award bill shall be taken up first,
and shall be considered from day to
day until disposed of; and that then
the Chairman of the Elections Commit
teo may call up Kellogg unless, in the
meantime, the Democratic caucus shall
decide otherwise.
The caucus this morning was not fully
attended, and it was understood that an
other shall be held before the hnal dis
position of the Geneva award bill, to
pass finally upon the question of the
consideration of the Kellogg case. This
was sort of compromise and it was coll
sented to in the hope of bringing about
better feeling on the question than
now exists, 1t is the understanding that
the final decision shall be made by a full
vote of all the Democratic Senators ii 1t
can be obtained

Having fully considered the matter, and

Railroad Meeting at Franklin, n. c.
From the Western (N. C.) Reporter.


Col. Foreacre aud MIR. Wilmer, repre-
sentatives of the Air Line Railroad, Wis.,
tied our community and attended meet
ing, on the 29th. of March, of the Direc.
tors of the Rabun Gap Short Line Rail-
way Company. These gentlemen have
agreed to aid this company in the con-
struction of their road from the Georgia
State line to the Tennessee State line.
The Board passed resolutions opening
books of subscription, and while. there
were comparatively few of our citizens
present, subscriptions were made amount
ing to one hundred and four thousand
dollars, with many pledges for future
subscriptions. Col. Foreacre and Nr.
Wilmer, on behalf of themselves and
eight other associates, subscribed one
hundred thousand dollars. On these
subscriptions an assessment of one dollar
on the share was paid in, and certificates
of stock issued.
A meeting Of stockholders was then
held, and following officers were elected !:
w. L. Love, Franklin, N. c., Presi-
dent; Hiram W. Sibly, of New York,
Vice President; w. n. Altman, Frank
lin, N. c., Treasurer.
After which the President appointed
Mr.. Skipwith Wilmer, of Baltimore, Md,
Secretary.
The gentlemen who have taken hold
of this line with hearty good will, and
with full appreciation of its magnitude
and value as connecting line between
the Northwest and the Southwest, have
done so with a purpose to push forward
its completion. They have already given
an earnest of their faith by their works,
and will in short time give additional
fruits of their faith in this great work on
great commercial artery, by putting an
active corps of engineers to work in re-
surveying and relocating the line.

The communication of Colonel D. B.
DALEY gives US credit which is not due.
1t was not a correspondent of The INTEL
L1GENcER, but of the Meacs and Courier,
who wrote the article entitled 1.-TWO
Brave Men," of which he speaks, and it
was copied by us from our Charleston
contemporary. The INTELL1GENcER has
always had q sincere desire to promote,
in its limited sphere, harmony and
good understanding between all sections
of our common country, and to the meas
ure of its ability to soften and obliterate
the asperities incident on both sides to
the late civil war. We believe the safest
and surest way of doing this is to give
to the public the deeds of brave men on
both sides, and mutual respect and a
kindly feeling will spring up therefrom.
Brave men may be mistaken in their
opinions. but they are never base in their
motives nor deceitfuf in their methods.
A proper appreciation Of the character
of the Union and of the Confederate
soldier by each other is bound to inspire
respect and confidence between them,
and it was in pursuance of this belief
that we published the tribute to Colonel
Dailey's intrepidity and courage as con-
tanned in the article referred to. When
he prepares the statement Of his recol-
lection Of the event referred to, the
INrELL1GEScER will be pleased to pub
lish it also, if we can get hold of it. 1t
is a healthy sign when the men who wore
the blue and those who wore the grey
can come together and discuss the events
of an unfortunate war, in which they
were engaged on opposite sides, without
irritation and renewed anger, and the
temper of their correspondence is more
than creditable to Gen. Hagood and Col.
DALEY. We wish such instances could
he more frequently and more prominent
ly presented to the country both North
and South.

The card of Judge Wallace, which we
publish elsewhere, conveys the unwel-
come information that he cannot consent
to accept the nomination for Governor
in the coming canvass, and therefore
leaves the contest where it stood before
lie was suggested. A great many of our
readers will regret this, for he was un-
doubtedly the favorite of a large majority
of them for Governor. Judge Wallace,
however, occupies an important position
which is lnore congenial to his taste and
equally as advantageous to the State, aud
it is not unreasonable for him to prefer
to retain it. Circumstances may yet
arise which will necessitate his nomina-
ton in the interests of that enthusiasm
and concord which is necessary to save

The nomination of Gen. Grant by the
Chicago Convention for third term is
not near as likely as it was few weeks
ago, although the Stalwarts and most
corrupt elements of the Republican party
are working for it with tenacity that
amounts to madness. He is not the
choice of his. own party, and, if nomi-
mated, it will be the work of few lead
ing.politicians, effected by manipulating
conventions without regard to the wishes
of the masses of. the party. The better
element in the Republican party recog-
nize the danger to Republican institu-
tions of departure from the established
customs of near century, that no Pres
ident, however popular, should have
more than two terms, and those in that
party who favor constitutional govern
ment are holding meetings in the North,
East and West protesting against the
principle Of a third term, and demanding
that Gen. Grant shall not receive the
nomination at Chicago. It is now evi-
dent that if he enter the Presidential
contest, it will be as the candidate of the
corruptionists and consolidationists, and
that his election will result in the sub
version of free government and the estab-
lishment of monarchy. But can he be
elected7 He cannot command the sup
port of his own party, and that party was
defeated in the last Presidential contest,
when it was united, by popular ma
jority of 100000. If Grant is the next
President, he will not be so by the voice
of the people, but by the power of the
sword.
