The Wall Street Ne,os says Of the new
move in Richmond Terminal that since the
impossbllity of securing a quorum at the
last meeting of the directors, Mr.. Inman
will be the incumbent of the presidency
until this week, when Pat Calhoun will be
elected. Incidenta ly, it is stated that Mr..
lnman will retain his 1Dterest in the com
pany, and will continue to be one of the
directors. His withdrawal simply means
that private business necessitates his giving
his entire time 10 individual enterprise.
On April II last, in discussing Texas and
Pacific's new ally, the NetCS says: " We
stated that Mr.. Gould was believed
to be buying the stock, and that deal
was in hand by which an Arrangement of
some kind was to be made between the Iron
Mountain and the Ricnmond and Terminal
which would lnure very much to the benefit
of both companies. We further said: In
formation has come to US lately which
justities us in believing that an arrangement
of some kind will be made between the
Texas Pacific aud the Richmond Terminal.
At the last election of both these conpa-
MES directors were mutually exchanged, so
that each company now has repre- enta-
ton in the other; and, as any one will see By
reference to the map, the line of the Texas
Pacific, connecting with the East Tennessee
Virginia and Georgia and the Atlantic
Coast Line, makes the shortest and most
direct line from the southwest TO Washing

ton Of Jay Gould to the presidency of
the Texas aud Pacific company a couple of
weeks ago, and the fact that the executive
officer who is to be elected to the presidency
Of the Richmond and West Point Terminal
company s not inimical to the diversified
interests will be sufficient TO explain what

THERE WAS NO MooNsHINE.

Col. Alfred HerrinGton Discharged by
United States Commissioner Lamar.
Col Alfred Harrington, representative
from Emanuel county, and solicitor OF that
county charged on the affidavit of negro
by the name of Jim Pattisoll with intlml-
dalton of witnesses, came down to SaVan-
nah last night and had a preliminary
examination before United States Commits
soner Lamar, d was discharged.
Ide only witnesses against him were jim
Pattisoll and George Dallas, the last named
undergoing sentence for adultery, and rat
tisol now a refugee from the county under
charge of adultery made against them by
their own race before he Herrlngton dis
tillery cases were brought into the United
States courts.
The two wit 7esses had made the most ex-
travagant charges, but in the examination
neither of them could swear to any act or
deed of Col. lie rington to sustain the
charge. On the contrary they swOre in the
opp site direction PattersOll would not
look up during his examination, but hung
his head and 0 ly by the utmost persist
ency could even a categ rcal answer be
elected from him Witnesses were intro
duced to show the character of Dallas and
Pattersoll and ais disproving the charge
against the defe idant.
The friends of Col Harrington say that
it was dodge of the uegr es TO get out Of
the hands If the law in Emanuel county
and at the same time annoy Harrington.
Col Harrington said last night after his
aCquttal, that it was annoying to him from
an ethical standpoint thai such q charge
should be preferred against him; that he
had lawyers pride in his professional rep
utaton, and for that reason be had de-
manded preliminary hearing. He says
that Rowan and Berrien Harrington are
not his brothers. They are on his place,
the Vineland plantation, and that the still
about which 50 much has been said was
bought by him, at Rowans suggestion, to
distll beer from lot of potatoes about to
be lost, and that he applied for a register of
the still. When Informed by the revenue au-
thorities that he could not have it registered
for such a purpose, be sent word to empty
the first beer made on the ground, which
was done, and ordered the still to be taken
down and put in the barn. If any Illicit
liquor has since been made with it, be is
ignorant of it, and he says that it is not on
his plantation now, and his orders were
positive that the still should not be oper-
ated.
Col Harrington has been and is now the
counsel for r man and Berrien Harrington,
and that is as far as his interest lies-that
of counsel for his clients. The examination
last night was complete refutaton of any
charge against Col. Alfred Harrington for
influencing or attempting to influence any
witness from being present before Commls-
sioner Lamar in tie illicit distillery case,
and was a complete vindication.
Deputy Sheriff Kent will take Pattisou
back to Emanuel county to answer the
charge against him there, and George Dallas
will also be returned to complete TIE time
which be was sente1ced, after conviction,
to serve.
