Ransom May Return.

From the pine forests of North Caro-
lima come the gladstone tidings that the
Hon. Matt W Ransom, soldier, states
man, ambassador. and still the pride OF
the Old North State. may be returned to
the Senate to occupy the seat he so
proudly filled for a quarter of a cen
tury. This should be joyous intelligence
to those who glory in old-tfme memories
and the brilliant achievements of the
past, for the Hon Matt ". Ransom is a
representative of the old school OF
Southern statesmen and gentlemen. Since
he was forced to leave the Senate there
has been no one who exactly filed the
place which he vacated. When the black
wave OF Republicanism, whitecapped
with Popullsm, swept over the State
about eight years ago. it inundated the
Hon. Matt W Ransom, but President
Cleveland, remembering that the gallant
North Carolina Senator had befriended
the Administration in the Senate when
others were abusing it, threw out life
line, and Ransom was landed IN the City
of Mexico with credentials as United
States minister.

only to those which existed at the time
when King George. " succeeded to the
crown Of Great Britain and ireland. For
the Crown Princess Of SaXony, not hav-

that her husband was proclaimed King,
