ORGANIZATION OF THE SENATE.

The reorganization of the United States
Senate was effected on Thursday last, on Re-
publican basis, by the Vice Presidents casting
vote, which is attributed to the detection of
Malone, of Virginia, who voted with the
Republicans. The Republicans, by 6llibus
tering, delayed the reorganization until the
presentation of the credentials of w. P. Frye.
as Senator from Maine When Mr.. Hale
presented the credentials of Mr.. Frye, he
said that was what he had been waiting for
all these days, and here it was at last. Mr..
Frye took the oath, the Senate was full; and
was once again under Republican control.
After some parliamentary tactics, in which
the Democrats were met by precedent set
by no less Democrat than John G. Calhoun,
the Republican report on committees was read
and adopted by the Vice, Presidents casting
vote, the Senate standing 81 to g.
With the exception of some of the minor
committees, the chairman and majority of
the committees are Republicans. Johnston,
of Virginia, is chairman of the committee on
revolutionary claims, and Harris, Of Teunes
see, of the committee on epidemic diseases
Hampton is on the military and the select
civil service committees, and Butler on the
standing civil service committee-this being
the only committee on which he is honored
with place.

YORKVILLE, S. G. :
THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH "a, 1881
THE FACTORY MOVEMENT.

We feel that no apology is due for the
space which we have recently devoted in our
columns to the subject of cotton manufacture
inp. as also the amount of matter in the
present issue on the same subject The ad-
vaptages to be derived from such an estab,
lishment, and the profits sure to accrue, have
been fully set forth from indisputable facts ;
and we are gratided at being able to announce
that already feeling of interest has been
awakened among our citizens on this impor'
tant question.
We would ask a careful perusal Of the
prospectus of the York Cotton Mills, which
we publish this week, to the capital stock for
the proposed erection Of which, many of our
most prudent and sagacious citizens have sub
scribed, and effected a temporary organization
as announced in the prospectus. Citizens OF
Yorkville have already subscribed $25,OOO
and with this exhibition of their faith in the
enterprise as a profitable investment, they
issue to the people of the county a prospectus
of the scheme, not seeking an augmentation
Of the capital stock in the nature of ap'
pealing to the public for aid in some doubtful
or charitable undertaking, but to give those
having funds to invest, an opportunity for a
safe investment that will yield certain and
satisfactory return. There is plenty Of un'
employed capital in York to build several
cotton mills, there is plenty of room for them
and if those having funds to invest will only
give the subject proper attention and investi
CATION, we feel assured that this projected
scheme will be an accomplished fact.

RAILROAD NOTES.

We learn that the iron for the completion
of the Chester and Lenoir Railroad to Lin.
colnton has arrived at Wilmington, and is
now probably on the way from that point to
Gastonia. Capt Wadlell, who has charge
of the construction of the road between Dallas
and Lincolnton, informs the Progress that
he hopes TO reach Lincolnton by the first
week in April.
The latest rumor in local railroad circles is
to the effect that the Cheraw and Chester and
the Chester and Lenoir roads are to experience
boom unprecedented in the annals of railroad
building. 1t is proposed, or so sanguine are
some in the enterprise that it is already regard
ed as fixed fact, to consolidate the above
named railroad companies under one manage
ment and elect Col. VIM. Johnston, of Char
lotte, N c., president of the consolidated COM
nany. It is claimed that on account Of his
large experience as railroad manager, his
extensive acquaintance with the capitalists
of the nation, the great personal influence
which he could exert with the moneyed In.
terests of the country, to say nothing OF the
unlimited facilities which, if necessary, he
would readily command from his own private
resources, he could easily and speedily build
the unfinished portion of the roads, that
is, complete the Chester and Lenoir' say
from Linconton; build the bridge Of the
Cheraw and Chester across the Catawba, and
Immediately extend this road from Lancaster
to Florence, taking in Cheraw, of course,
which was originally intended as the terminus
of the route Enthusiastic admirers contem'
plating this grand scheme, already see IN
their minds eye the consummatlon OF the
enterprise, and through trains speeding their
way from the lower confines of South Caroli'
ma to the mountains of the Old North State
literally uniting the Palmetto and the Pine,
