diplomatist had vanished. Looking up at
Mr.. Weed, the duke saw the plain Amer
icau standing before him, courteous, but
his master. From the dukes manner and
glance the American politician realized that
he had won the battle, and for the present
at least France would not recognize the
confederacy.
De Morny rang bell, summoned an Of
fetal, who was sent to the prefect for the
paper from which Mr.. Weed bad copied
the paragraph. During the absence OF the
messenger the two diplomatists spoke of
trivial things, and Mr.. Weed was filled
with admiration for the manner in which
De Morny mastered the tu nultuous excite
ment which was raging within him. When
the paper was brought, De Morny scanned
1t and found that the paragraph had been
copied literally. He turned for a
moment to hide his emotion and
TO master 1t, and then he said to
Mr.. Weed, speaking no longer with
ice In his tones, II will see the semperor
tonight and communicate with you to-
morrow" Mr.. Weed knew that the victory
was clinched. That night a special nessens
ger was sent 10 London. In the office OF the
Times he produced an official document
instructing the editor to strike out from
the address of the emperor the paragraph
IN which he announced the recognition of
the southern confederacy. When the ad>
dress was delivered a day later it contained
no reference to recognition.
The bit OF paper which Mr.. Weed put In
De Morny' hands contained an extract from
treaty entered into between France
and England, in which it was pro-
vided that the harbor Of Dunkirk should be
closed perpetually. and it was a closed port
at the very time when Napoleon was pre-.
pairing to defend the recognition of the
southern oonfeieracy on the ground that
the closing of port could not be defended.
De Morny had forgotten that old treaty, and
that Dunkirk was closed.

TERMINAL FACILITIES.

A Suggestion as 10 HOW the hellrOaOS

SAVANNAH, GA, Feb. 5.-Editor Norm
ina NelCs: There are several railroads,
some of which are now being built to aud
otbers already completed to this city, that
o-s anxious TO get terminals on the river
l., This search for facilities for handling
cotton. lumber, naval stores and other
,,-odncts OF the south. quickly and econOm-
icalIv. il appears that those offered by the
savannah and Atlantic Tor Tybee) railroad
have been overlooked.
Th,s railroad virtually own McQueen's
island with its eight miles of water frontage
On the south channel Of the Savannah river
II would be an easy matter to
Jradge the south channel to a sut-
fcient depth to accommodate yes
eeIs of any draught and there is not
onIy ample room on the island to handle the
business of all the railroads now building
t1vrard Savannah, but that or the Rich
,nond and Danville, the Savannah Florida
and Western and the South Bound can also
he taken care of. and even then there will
ba sufficient room remaining to take care of
,ba business of three or four times as many
mora railroads.
The eastern end on McQueen's Island is
Daxt 10 Tybee and fourteen miles nearer the
ocean than Savannah. The south channel
ia lRuQ-lOCkeQ hHu HneTe IL 0uptloS INTO
Tvbee sound nearest the sea- it has a depth
Of 30 TO 40 feet of water.
f1f course know that the Savannah and
Atlantic railroad is under the control OF the
richmond and Danvllle, but it is not i'm
probable, in view of the fact that that rail-
road has extensive wharf properties at Sa-
vannah and, furthermore, because it is ap-
parent that that company requires all the
money it can get hold OF just now. that it
NAV be induced to sell the Savannah and
Atlantic railroad.
Is it not worth an effort on the part Of
the South Bound, Savannah, Americus and
Montgomery, Macon, Dublin and Atlantic
and other railroads seeking terminal facili-
ties at this port to buy the Savannah and
Atlantic! INVESTIGATOR.

little fellow was entirely cured with no traces

BY Their Guns.
MrxSEAPoLls, juno 4.-The first init
nation of Blaine's resignation came
through the Associated Press bulletin,
and the news was simultaneously COM
municated to the various headquarters.
The effect was indescribable.
At first everybody doubted 1.-THE
Blaine people as well as the Harrison
leaders-thus showing how little the
former were in the confidence OF the
secretary in his contemplated action.
It was indeed n diplomatic secret, and
its disclosure vas a coup detat. When
the assurance was officially given by the
Associated Press that the distinguished
secretary OF state had actually LETT the
cabinet and been accepted, Blaine
man gave ono wild, hilariousShurrah.
Blaine has resigned; it Is officially
shouted National Committeeman Con-
ger, and everybody knew he had spoken
the truth.
Colonel William A. Gayett, of Michi-
gan felt inspired to mako a speech.
The Michigan delegation is instructed
for Alger, but when Col. Gavett said
that Michigan was for Blaine, and that
Blaine and Alger would be the ticket
that could beat tho world, not a AIichi-
gan man questioned tho correctness OF
his position.
In the meantime the enthusiasm in
the hotels was growing every minute.
There was smile on Gov iForaker's
lace, and it was a smile OF exultatlon.
The countenance OF Clarksoh and Fas.
sett beamed with pleasure and even the
immovable Quay was maniiestly exult-
ant
An hour later "Blaine headquarters"
we're engaged at the price OF $500 in the
west Hotel, and the fight was on. The
batteries were unmarked and the Blaine
boomers became enthusiastic partisans
Of the man from Maine, instead OF
sayiorG Of the party.
At Harrison's headquarters the scene
was different. Dismay was pictured on
every face, but it promptly gave way to
9uiet resolution. Consul General John
= New quickly showed his powers OF
leadership. Rallying his lieutenants
around him, he closed the doors for a
lew minutes consultation, and when
the Harrison leaders stepped out again
tne line Of battle had been drawn.
Every Harrison man accepted the
situation, and no one doibted that
blalne was candidate, orsdenied that
ne would accept the nomination. In
Stead OF eulogy, the ex.sscretary OF
STATE was accused OF bad faith and dis
loyalty. and the Harrison men still
maintained that they had sufficient
votes to nominate their man.
Later In the evening these reflections
on The actions OF Blaine ceased, and to-
night the administration people have
generally ceased their criticism OF the
;eS'secretary The Harrison, people are

"GH there was to give mp hope is gone.
