ONE OF the most cheerful features
OF the great revival OF business
throughout the country is the aston
fishing prosperity of the Southern
States. In Alabama, especially, is
this the case. The coal and iron
wines of the northern part OF the
State are wonderfully productive and
;nexhaustible in extent, and Eastern
and Europ, nital is flowing into
the country, in ao nt.S~ to that ex-
pended by the Southern people them
selves, for their development. The
city of Birmingham, which has over
twenty thousand inhabitants, and is
only few years old, is one of the
liveliest towns in America. 1t is stu
ated in the heart OF the coal and iron
region and aspires to excel Pittsburg.
Pa, in the Importance OF its coal and
iron interests, with fair prospects of
success. Not only are the coal and
iron interests in the South assuming
vast proportions, but manufactures OF
all kinds are springing up throughout
that section in a way unknown be-
fore. While California has such
bright prospects it is pleasant to know
that every other portion OF the Re-
public is flourishing. The Southern
section has been the victim OF misfor-
tune 50 long that it is particularly
gratifying to know that its lnhabit-
ants are at last prospecting to an ex-
tent never known even in the palm
lest ante-bellum days.

DAY DISPATCHES.

COLUMBUS, Ohio. January 29.-The
Senate met at 10 A. NJ, both factions
being present, and without transacting
any business adjourned till tomorrow
morning, in accordance with a previous
agreement OF the two facii ms. The
proposition of the Conference Commit
tee, which has in charge the arrange.
ment of compromise measures, was sub.
mitted TO the Democratic caucus this
morning and ratified. 1t has also been
agreed to by the Republican caucus.
The proposition is that a special com
mittee of six members, three from each
party, shall mako an Investigation OF
the Hamilton county contest case and
report findings to the Senate. The Con-
ference Committee resumed business at
1890, and expect to have something
further to report to the respective eau
cuses this evening. The fight in the
committee now will be as to which rules
shall prevail in tho contest cases, and
whether, IN disposing of the report to be
made by the investigating committee,
the sitting Senators from Hamilton
county shall have the privilege OF voting.
The differences are so great between
the two sides on this point that it may
result in killing all compromise meas
ures which have been proposed.
The Conference Committee at the
noon recess had been unable to agree
upon anything further, and there were
indications that they were getting fur

IT seems that the Supreme Court
holds that the Santa Rosa island is
in Santa Barbara county. The point
was raised in the trial OF A. 2 Moore
for murder that the island, the place
OF the killing, was not in the county,
and that the Superior Court had no
Jurisdiction. The Judge held that
this point was well taken, and the
District Attorney appealed. The su-
preme Court, it is stated in our dis
patches, has reversed this ruling. 1t
is strange how such ruling could
be made. If the island is not in that
county it neither belongs to Califor-
MIA nor the United States.
