Other Railroad Matters.

AUGUSTA, GA, April G.-For severa
weeks there have been various rumOrs here
in reference to railroad affairs. Central and
Georgia railroad stocks have advanced ra.
pidv. Central going up from 10 to 121.
Georgia stock advanced from llj TO 143.
This afternoon Central declined to ll5 and
Georgia to 1876. The rapid advance in
Georgia was caused by the efforts to pur-
chase controlling interest. 1t is rumOred
and believed that parties favorable to the
Centra.railroad interest have secured sufii-
cient stock to control the Georgia railroad.
The parties purchasing have large Interests
in the Central and south Carolina. The
railroad combination embraces the South
Carolina, Central, and Georgia railroads,
which roads will be worked in harmony
with the Louisville and Nashville combina-
tiOn.

fortSsevensh Congress--speeiai SEES
sion or the Senate.

WASHINGTON, April O, 1881.
The Vice-President laid before the sen,
ate az unfinished business a resolution 10,
the election OF Senate officers.
Mr. Mcpherson inquired why the Vice
president bad not, in compliance with toe
iu'es. called for the presentation OF peti.
tions and memorials.
Tue Vice.President replied that this being
the executive session Of the Senate there
was no morning hour.
Mr.. Ferry sustained the posuion OF the
Chair, declaring that the rule TO which the
senator referred was applicable only to the
legislative session OF the Senate.
Mr.. Mcpherson then offered, as his right
under the rules, petition from certain cIti-
zens OF The State Of New jersey respecting
the case OF one Michael Boyton. who was
alleged TO he confined I'm an English dun
geon arbitrarily and unjustly, and asked
mat ii be referred to the Committee on
Foreign Relations. There being no obIec-
ton, the petition was received, read, and
| referred as Indicated.
A motion by Mr.. Pendleton to go INTO
executive session having been rejected
ayes, 80; noes. 3l-Mr. Bayard took The
floor. He believed. be said, that there was
justification for thirty.eigbt Democratic
senators in maintaining the attitude before
the country which they had maintained for
The past ten days. He wished 10 try the
justice Of their position by the light OF law
and reason, so that when they were called
into that court OF last appeal the bar Of
public opinion they should be willing TO
submit 10 il the case which they were
making now.
Mr.. Bayard proceeded to discuss the sit
uation at length.
| Mr.. sherman said the Senator from Della
ware and he agreed upon The principle that
the majority must rule. When the dictates
OF the minority went beyond reasonable de-
| lay i: became worse than revolution; it was
treason. TIE doctrine of the right OF the
majority must prevail. He declined to DIS
cuss at this time the position OF Mr.. Malone
on the question Of the State debt, not
being sufficiently familiar with the sub
| ject. II the election Of Rddlebercer would
strengthen the Republican party, then Re-
publican senators were justified in eleeiine
him. There had been no purchase, no bar
ter, no promise. no hope or expectation OF
reward held out; nothing in the movement
that was corrupt.
After a few remarks by Mr.. Vance upon
the question OF the State debt OF North
Carolina, the Senate adjourned.

Colored virginia Republicans az 'he
White House.

WASHINGTON, April The Star says ;
Ex-senator Lewis, Of Virginia, was at the
White House to-day with delegation OF
coIored Republicans OF that State. They
saw the President and bad an interview
with him relating TO the policy OF the Re.
publican party OF Virginia. 1t was urged
upon the President that he encourage the
liberal movement as il had been developed
OF late. especially as regarded the po-
sition OF Senator Malone aud what bad
grown out OF it in the State. The
President replied that he was fully in SYM
natby with that movement. and will do all
in his power 10 foster it. He thought 1t the
nroDer policy for the Republicans TO pur-
sue. that they should coalesce with the dis
affected elements CT the Democratic party
whenever such action was not IN conflict
with their interests. Such course, he
thought. would conduce to building up the
strength OF the party. DE did mol, ne
said. endorse the position assumed Dy Tue
ultra. Republicans In Virginia, VINO opposed
any coalition with Senator Malone ana Ms
followers, and were strong in advocating
that be should receive no support or coun-
tenance from the straight'out' hepuoh'
cans.

Railroad consolidation.

THE FAYETTEVILLE AND FLORENCE RAILROAD
MERGED INTO THE CAPE FEAR AND YADKIN
VALLEY RAn.wAY-REPORTED FAILURE OF
ONE OF JAY GOCLD'S SCHEMES.
Especial telegram to the Di,paich.l
FAYETTEVILLE, n. c., April Cat con-
ference OF the directors Of the Cape Fear
and Yadkin Valley railway and Fayeite-
willie and Florence railroad held here to-
day the two roads were cOnsOldated-the
Fayetteville and Florence transferring all
rights to the other company, subject to the
approval Of the stockholders OF both COM
panies, which will undoubtedly be given.
Mortgage bondS to the amount OF SlSO,0OO
Will be issued, and in thirty days
work will begin on the extension OF the
Florence rojd to Florence, where it VIII
connect with roads TO Columbia, Charles
ton, and the whole southern country. 1t Is
also hoped that eventually the present Cape
Fear and Yadkin Valley road will find a
northern connection which will make it a
great through freight and passenger route.
| The completion OF the Florence road will
open up new and desirable trade for
Fayetteville, making it great trade centre
for the Yadkin Valley, Cape Fear, and Pee
Dee sections.
Colonel l.. W. Humphrey, well-knoWn
railroad.man OF this State, claiming to re-
present northern and English capitalists,
was here two weeks ago, and clrried OF
with him written proposition from the
FAYETTEVILLE and Florence road TO trans
fer all rights OF the said company
for $4,000, after two weeks consider
alton. He returned yesterday with a
request for extension OF time in which
to raise the money. To-day, however, he
appeared before the directors Of the road
and withdrew all the propositions he had
made them, as he could not raise the re-
quired amount in the time given. Colonel
| Humphrey has never diyuged the names
OF the capitalists he claims to represent. but
rumor has connected his scheme with Jay
Gould, the Richmond and Danyilc road,
| and the Atlantic Coast Line, respectively.
There is no incumbrance on the Florence
| road, and work on it will be pushed ener.
getically forward.
