COyHLING AND GARFIELD.

fspecial TO n. O. Democratic
NAsnISaroN, April A. 1t is said by
those who are close to the President
THAT he has never for moment contein.
plated the Withdrawal OF Robertson,
although the pressure upon him to do
it in the alleged interest of peace has
been extraordinary, bnt he holds that
to withdraw Robertson would be an net
of bad faith towards large and power
full element of New York Republicans,
who did so much towards his own nomi-
nation at Chicago. The matter has
been presented to the President III every
light, but he has not wavered i'll his
course.
Senator Platt has been frequent
visitor to the White House in his efforts
to effect Withdrawal of Robertson, or
at least compromise, but without
result, MS he himself owns.
Under existing conditions Senator
Conkling's voice is for war, and war
there will be unless all signs fail. The
President is represented MS accepting
the inevitable, although he is by Lature
e man of peace, aud would make any
reasonable sacrifice to get along harmo
niously with Senator Conkllng, but
withdraw Robertson he will not.
It is learned that Pr sdent Raye
talked over this matter with Gen. Gar
field at the beginning OF the presen
administration, telling him that h
would find it impossible to get aloni
tremendously with Conkling; that Ii
had tried 1t and his effort in that lin
was conspicuous failure.
Those near to Garfield say that
there is to be war it will be more enel
getic than that Hayes carried on, an
the New ,rk senator will be Stripe
OF all the power he has heretofol
exercised through Federel patronage.

Cen. Gordon and His Wailrse Il.

A New York correspondent OF the
Atlanta Consultation writes that paper:
"Gen. Gordon has ust enclosed a
trade by which he gets SlOs, 900 in cash
for an interest in the Belmont coal
mine. Governor Colquitt and Messrs.
f. G. Gordon and Walter Gordon are
interested in the ownership. The New
York purchasers take one-fourth of the
stock at 100000. The money has
been paid over and the mine will at once
be developed to about the capacity of
the..Dade County coal mine. This sim
gle transaction makes General Gordon
ii comparatively rich man and is the
fist step in the course OF financial
success that I predicted for him two
months ago. He has been out of poll
tics about six months, and this one
tranaact,on gives him fortune on
which lie could retire and live in com =
fort and luxury"
The same correspondent, in writing
of General Gordon's road, the Georgia
" Western, says:
Gas to the outlook for the road it is
useless to repeat what has been said
before, and yet it may assure some
doubling Thomases to say that General
Gordon found everything on his return
to New York in even better shape than
he had hoped, and his friends more
eager to push the work forward even
than he himself.
"One of the incidents of the Georgia
Western scheme will be the early estab-
lishment of tho largest steel works in
America at Birmingham. Mr.. Sayre,
the president of the Lshish Valley road
and of the Bethlehem steel works, who
is also interested in the Georgia West
ern, has completed bis arrangements
for the investment of $3.50, 600 in new
steel works at Birmingham, and will
put them up the coming summer. This
is but the beginning of the development
that will come from that road.
