ma,,one Plotting 10 Get Even

A Washington special OF Friday TO the
New York World saws: Malone made q
failure yesterday at trying TO patch his diff
ferences with the President over the prob
able appointment of General Mosby 10 q
iudgeship in Virginia. How Malone was
snubbed by the President in this matter
was related In these dispatches two or
three days ago. The story OF yester-
days Gasco, so far as il has leaked
out, is that Malone went to General
Grant, who is said to favor Mosby's
appointment, and urged him TO keep hands
off in Virginia, representing that much
was ut stake there, and that 1t was inn
portant that those directly interested
should either control the patronage or ut
least DO deferred 70 in IT'S distribution.
That was the only way, he said, in which
leadership couM I've held, and without
leadership the Readjuster organization
would 60 10 pieces. and the result would
be fatal 20 Republican plans with regard to
Virginia in 1884. He urged that every
one knew of the uufriendliness between
M0sby and himself, and the moral effect OF
Mosby's appointment in the light oil this
common knowledge would be severe and
far-reaching. General Grant proposed that
they go to the White House to talk 1t over
with the President. They remained there
less than an hour. What happened has
not been disclosed. but upon leaving Ma
hone declared that he had been there for
the last time. This is the version that
reached the Senate to-day and that attached
significance to earnest whispered consulta-
lions in which Malone engaged with GER
tain Half-Br senators on the floor this
afternoon.

A dispatch from st. Adams, VT, to the
Boston Journal says: "John Edwards, a
colorcd man, employed as a farm laborcr
by Charles Martin at Rochester, ran away
yesterday with Kitty Marsh, thirteen years
old, daughter of Charles Marsh, a well-to-
do farmer of the same town. Edwards
stole valuable pair OF horses and sleigh
from liis employer, and calling at the
schooI-house where the girl was, she
accepted an invitation to take short
ride with him. The child not return
ing home, these facts were learned by her
parents from the children, and an alarm
was given. The search has since been Wig
orousiy prosecuted all over the northern
part OF the State by citizens and the police.
This morning it was learned at Vergennes
that the man and his victim spent the night
mt the Stevens House, and started North
carly this morning. II Is not believed that
the flight was presrranged on the part OF
the girl, although her subsequent move
mcnts may have been voluntary. 1t Is
feared that they will reach Canada before
they can he overtaken. Edwards has
served term for larceny. and was for
merry employed on Mr.. Marsh's farm.

RALEIGH, n. C.. January 0, 1883.
The General Assembly completed It's or
ganizatlon last night by the election OF J'
NJ. Brown as enrolling clerk.
The Democratic caucus determined. 70
met on wednesday night next to ballot
Tor the martyrs candidate for United States
senator. This IL a compromise agreement.
MFR Dortch,s friends are conscious that de-
Law IS their tactics, and that II u selection
were prccipitated It could have but one re-
suit. and that would be the election OF
Senator Ransom.
General Ramsom's friends are proceed
ing with great caution, and are studious 10
be az courteous TO opponents. whom the'
consider already yanquished, rs poiitics
will allow. The odds arc very greatly IN
his favor.
To-day the committees Will be announced.
OF course there Is always n contest for the
best places. Young legislators want proml-
nence: old ones have ends TO serve; all
want power. In the Senate, Captain syden-
ham Alexander, OF Charlotte, will have the
Finance Committee; Cyrus Il. Watson, OF
Salem, Internal Improvements; James ;.
Battle, OF Nash, Propositions and Griey-
nnccs; w. w. Jones, OF Henderson, Elec-
lions; and Hon. w. I. Dortch. OF Colds
boro', the Judiciary. These are all good
selections.
In the House Speaker Rose will compile
ment oDc OF his opponents. Hon. W. IL.
Bailey, OF Charlotte, by giving him the
Judiciary. Colonel Thomas VI. Holt, who
was worthy rival, will have Propositions
and Grievances, and James ID. Glenn, OF
Rockingham. takes the Committee on Inter
nal Improvements.
Prohibition has been the 6ste 'lotre OF
State politics Just as readiustment has been
in Virginia, and there are now on the
desks OF the clerks of both houses bushel-
basket full OF bills to repeal the probibl-
ton act. II will be repealed rs soon as the
enrolling clerk il sworn in and can get the
clerical work done.
The Republicans, to use the language oil
one Of their most imposing revenue Off
cials, are up for any trade, deyiltry, or any
thing to o5struct.
The much-inyestlgated DR.. Mott Is i'll the
city, and the Republicans arc In caucus to-
night. Their caucuses are what caucuses
are intended to be, secret-and you know
their fruits only when you see them in
open halls OF legislation.

The Convention.

The amherst Ne,o Era hopes that State
Convention OF the Democratic party will
he called, and that its most conspicuous
feature will be the marked absence OF the
old adopts in "practical politics." 1t adds
that a convention Of two or three hundred
men Of the type Of General WILLIAM Ii.
PAYNE, or Of those as nearly approaching
that type as possible, would indeed be q
grand supporting Of the national move
snent In Virginia.
On the same subject, the Culpeper Er-
pontni speaks as follows:
.sLet us ask the Dispatch question :
Docs IL propose to organize an omnibus
party In which positive principles are to
have no recognition and 'anything-to-beat-
Mahope' adopted as the only dogma ]
That does seem 10 be the idea. If SO, just
count us ont Of it, IL you please; and we
may safely give warning that you may
count out, also, not only those thousands
81 Jeffersoniln Democrats who have already
chosen TO serve the Devil himself in the
image OF Mahoneism rather than Beelze-
bub in the house OF Conservatism, but
thousands more OF the same kind with
whom patience and long-suffering with this
CONSERVATIVE business have ceased 10 be
virtues"
We don't propose to organize any SORT
o! party. Parties grow out Of circum
stances. They are not made.

We are glad to find that Mr.. GARLAND
ecsds that the President pro lem. Of the
Senstc Il not such an officer as the Constr.
sution provides shall succeed 10 the pfesi-
deney Of the United States In case Of the
death, disability, or removal Of tho Presi-
dent Of the United States. Mr.. GARLAND
n the most skilful and profound lawyer
among the Democrats In the Senate, as Mr..
HDxuSps IS the most skiIful and profound
sawyer among the Republicans. All the
senator's feel profound respect for MIR.
GAslsED's opinions on constitutional ques-
lions.
The Senate OF the United States Itself
decided before the year 1900 that senator
was not an "oficer" within the meaning
Of the constitutional provision for the i'm
peachment OF Federal officers. The last
place 10 80 TO for successor 10 the Chief
Executive Office Il Congress.
II has been suggested that the Speaker OF
fhe House Of Representatives and the Pre-
sident pro fem. OF the Senate are In some
xpysterious way nearer to the people than
Cabinet officers, and more likely, therefore,
20 reflect the public will. This Is a most
unaccountable. blunder. The President pro
Tern. o. the Senate Is not only not elected
10 that Office by the people, but is not
elected a senator by the people. He may
have been In the Senate ten years before
che President OF the United States was
elected whom he has to succeed under the
tsw ss II now stands. The Speaker OF the
House Of Representatives is nearer the
people; but he is not elected Speaker by the
people. He is elected by them TO Congress;
but with view 10 his legislative abilities,
not bis executive powers.
Not so with Cabinet officers. These
are appointed by the President OF the
United States when he is fresh from the
PEOPLE and desires TO carry out the peo-
pies wishes. He selects men OF executive
talent. He selects men who are in full nc
cord with hun and with The people who
elected him. Indeed, the Secretary OF
State is rather more than the President OF
the United States the true representative
OF the popular wishes. When HARRISON
died, the great DANIEL WEBSTER would
have become President. When TAYLoE
died, the great JONI NJ. CLAYTON, OF Della
ware. When LINCOLN died, the great
wuLIss ii. SEWARD. When GABRIELLE
died, JAMES G.. BLAINE. Are not these
facts proof positive that the Secretary OF
State is the proper officer to succeed 10 the
presidency
What is true Of the Secretary Of State Is
true in a less degree Of the other Cabinet
officers. They all know Familiarity the Pre-
sidenfs policy. They all sympathize with
ms measures and purposes. They all rep
resent the popular feeling which made HIM
President.
We cannot blt think that the Senate bill
makes the proper provision for the sue
-ee-sion.

Ruries, Under a snow. and Land.siide.

The wife and two children of the family
OF Thomas johnson, living in cabin at
the foot OF a steep mountain, in Westmore-
land county, Pa, were killed on Wedncs-
day by land and snow-slide. Johnson,
who Ia hunter, was absent from home.
Returning In the evening, he was sur
prised TO see mass OF snow, stone, and
timber occupying the place where his cabin
had stood. Unable to remove the d6JriS
himself without great loss OF time. he bur-
ried off TO the nearest settlement and pro-
cured assistance. -Four or five strong men
worked with will until nearly midnight
before the roof OF the cabin came In sight.
IL was partly crushed, and the single room
was half full OF earth and stones. These
were hastily removed. In one corner
crouched the wife and two children. All
OF them were dead. A large stone had
struck one OF the children on the head,
crushing the skull. The others had appa-
rently been su1ocated, as no serious bruises
were found on them. The family removed
from Virginia 10 Westmoreland county
about three years ago. johnson is nearly

We would say to the Culpeper Exponent
that the Dispatch has not proposed that a

itself with opposition to the raising OF that

say to the following suggestion from the
Manassas Gazette:
ave need organization and we need an
active brain and vigorous mind for the
work. Let convention OF the party be
held by all means. Let us have no orna'
mental State Committee. In the selection
Of chairman we have single suggestion

the Hon. John s. Barbour. We honestl!
believe him to be the most suitable mar
