WITHDRA WAL OF JUDGE "MERRIMON. .The following letter from Judge Mer rimon to the Democratic Legislative cau cus, withdrawing his name as a candidate for re-election to the Senate, will -tie read " with interest and, by many of his triends, with great pleasure, n was tsuuu iu wc caucus Monday last : Raleioii, Jan. 13, 1879. To tltt Democratic Caucus ;-My friends . have ascertained that whatever may be the popular desire for my re-election to the Senate of the United ; States, causes and influences have been brought to bear that will prevent my re-election. t I have no desire to disturb the quiet p the Democratic party by further contest over the Senatorship, and, hence, beg my friends not to mention my name further now in that connection. ' I beg to express my most grateful thanks to friends in and out of the Legislature who .have so generously and earnestly manifested interest in my behalf. I can never cease to remember them with feel ings of pleasure and deepest gratitude, and 1 venture to trust that they will -not .have occasion to regret the confidence that, they have reposed in me. i "..'. A. S. Merrimon. To a reporter of .the Neves Judge Mer rimon frankly but, patrioticly said: "While I might have prolonged the con test yeffor the sake of quiet and harmony of the Democratic party 1 deemed it my duty to take the course I have taken. These words are greatly to the honor of J udge Merrimon and add additional lustre to his splendid Senatorial record. They call to our. mind the remark the Judge made to us on payeuevmq street, in Kaleigb, the evening after his election -r . . . Tl -AA Ml - A A to the Senate, sit years ago. baidie: 'I know I will be abused by many of the Democratic press because of my election,' but all their vituperations will not change my views in the. least. Politically, I stand' to day where I stood when ,1 was your candidate for Governor and there 1 expect to stand firm to the end of my term. I did not seek the Republican vote; and am under no obligations for that support to their party; am only under personal ob ligations to the Republicans who voted for me." ) r After thfese assurances we called upon j the State press to desist in the abuse of uuuge juernmon, siuuug wiiat we imv heard from his own lips, and adding our belief that "Judge Jlerrimon scorned Radicalism as intensely as does any other Democrat in the State." y ' We have not been deceived or even dis appointed in our expectation?, and gladly would we have him to remain in the Sen ate another term, could his re-election have been accomplished without hazard ; ing party organization for the campaign of 1880. Judge Merrimon's Senatorial career is all that a people could desire. His ability is extraordinary, and so recognized the country over, and but few in the Senate can scope with him in intellect, or measure with him in point of sobriety or morals. Even his partisan opponents were obliged to concede his merits and able ser , vices. Then let us accept Judge Mer rimon's letter of withdrawal as the sincere ' symbol of his loyalty to party and party . organization let the past bury the past and may the years not be many when the people, we. mean the Democrats, will delight to honor him again. North Caro lina needs the services of such statesmen as Judge Merrimon. OTHER EASTERN CON NEC T10NS. ,The Observer points out the way tor Eastern Railroad connections. Our cotemporary says, fifty, forty or twenty miles is too far for any considerable por tion of our people to dwell away from rail road lines, or other transportation facili ties, and the State pros'per. At the ut most, ten miles is as far from transporta tion facilities as agricultural interests can prosper and real estate maintain a market Value. It should be so arranged, as far as topographical conditions will allow, to so cut up the State with lines of auxiliary fiilroad as that the greatest outlying limit would not exceed ten or a dozen miles.' It ought to be in the most favored portions of the State, topographically, so that if a gentleman driving to a station on one line of railroad should miss the train, he could generally, by going in some other direc tion make the desired connection. In 8me portion of the western States this condition of things' is said to actually exist . "In addition to what has already been accompiifinea ana suggestea tor tne jast, in respect to transportation facilities, there are other needed connections to be made. A great many have been proposed, several chartered, and some down on the State maps. Elizabeth City wants rail road connection with Norfolk, Edenton With Suffolk, the town of Halifax with the Scotland Neck section, and perhaps Bertie through Northampton to the Seaboard and Roanoke Railroad. To be sure these lines would lead out of the State to Vir ginia towns, but smsh facilities are needed by the people, and it is no part of a wise policy U Jeny the people the transporta tion facilities they require, that trade may lie forced into certain channels. Under a condition of proper development there Would be ample business for all tho rail roads that could be built, or that any num ber of sensible men would invest in North Carolina can furnish the field for all the home trade that she will find competent pons' to engage in. The North Carolina system, which "the" Observer places high above everything else, is in no danger from any source of competition, ana need fear no cross or lateral lines, if it be nourished by the people and receive what belongs t it L Destroy the wretched system of dis crimination that almost, every where pre vails, and let the system of pro-rating be adopted by all North Carolina iHroada, all lines leading into and out of the State, and business will as surely seeks its level Under such conditions the Central System with terminal Dorts would compensate it self from one direction what it lost in an other, and by the increasing development of the country continue to thrive. "Onslow wants a railroad through the centre of Jones to Newborn. Qoldsboro wants a connection through Greene by Snow Hill and Speight's Bridge to Green ville, and Wilson wants a line by way of Stantonsburg and Marlboro to Greenville and Washington. These lines would all open up fine agricultural sections and add untold wealth to tho counties, through which they passed. The cost or construct ing narrow-gauge roads through these counties would be a mere trifle and they are all what may be termed wealthy sec tions of the State. The road from Wilson to Greenville, save that it diverges to Stantonsbunr. would have the choice of the old Greenville and Raleigh plank road, graded almost sufficiently for a narrow gauge railroad The topography of all these eastern counties is most favorable for the work proposed, and the people thereof, in the light of their own interest, are urged to undertake it at the earliest possible moment. ,5; ? . ";f. ; "Tnere are, perhaps, other outlines of a general system of local internal improve ments for the East that have not been touched upon. .That ; whole section of the State will again be considered in connee tion with the more general improvement of the water ways of the East, which will receive special attention in future papers." RAIL THROUGH HARNETT. Our recent article, calling attention to a much needed railway . line from this point, through the counties of Sampson, Johnston and Harnett, brings a response from Chatham countyendorsing the.pro- ject most warmly. It is addressed to the Raleigh Observer from which paper we copy it : Moncurk, Jan. 9. Messers. Editors . In your last issue I see an article under the head, of "Needed Railroad Facilities" taken from the Golds boro Messenqeb, which I think makes a very important suggestion. It is a rail road from Goldsboro to Smily Falls, iu Harnett county, and it is proposed to amend the charter of the Goldsboro, New ton Grove and Fayetteville road for that Eurpose. Believing the project to be ighly important, Iwish to suggest to the writer of the article and the friends of the scheme, some modification of it, and some reasons favoring and calling for the road. Instead of amending the charter referred to I suggest an extension of the road from Morehead City to Goldsboro. That road I think belongs mostly to the State, but is virtually isolated, by reason of the lease of the North Carolina Railroad, and the power and interest of the Wilmington & Weldon road. But its extension as pro posed would assure to it a large and val- uaoie Dusmess, secure irom tne inter secure irom the inter- ference of those roads. From the head off Smily's Falls the Cape Fear and Deepl iuvers may be navigated at a small cost to Tysor's Mill in Moore county near the Randolph line. The distance by land is about sixty miles and not much more by water, as that part of the Cape Fear is remarkably direct, as is also Deep Riyer to the Gulf in Chat ham county. The needed dams and locks have been formely built over the whole distance, and all of them except four are now in working order. I think $40,000 would put the whole distance in fine, na vigable condition, so that by co-operation between the railroad and the rivers awon derfully cheap, direct and valuable facility could be secured from our own central sea port right through the centre of the State and still pointing directly west; and pass ing through timber and cotton regions and thei coalfields to the grain section. I will ad.d that a survey has been made froin Deep River to the Yadkin River with the view to a railroad or canan, and the route was pronounced eligible for either at reasonable costs. And with that link of about thirty miles completed, and the Yadkin in: prove as contemplated, the line would reach to WUkesboro- I would also suggest that if a canal were cut from the head of Smilv's Falls toFavette- ville, that place would get the benefit of tne railroad and the river improvement wh le saving the heavy cost of bridging the Cape Fear for a railroad, and what might be saved from the railroad and its bridge, would perhaps pay for, the canal I beg tne friends of the scheme to weigh well these suggestions. Civis. I DEATH OF CONGRESSMAN SCHLEICHER. The Hon. Gustave Schleicher, of Texas, one of the most valuable members of Con gress from the Southwest, died at Wash ington last Saturday. Mr. Schleicher was born at Darmstadt, Germany, JSovember 19, 1823, was educated at the University of Gresson, in the Grand Duchy of Hesse Darmstadt, was engaged as a civil engineer in the construction of several European railroads, emigrated to Texas in 1847, and after passing some time on the frontiers located at San Antonio in 1850; was a member of the State House of Represen tatives in 1853-56, and in the State Senate in . 1859-61 j was elected to 4he 44th and 45th Congresses, and re-elected the 46th as a Democrat He leaves a wife and sev eral children. He was prominent for the great interest he took in the question of frontier defense against the Mexican raiders. ' WASHINGTON LETTER. Congressional Matters The Detective Bureau Interesting Exhibit, d'C, &c. From onr Begular Correspondent! Washington, D. C., Jan. 13, 1879. Congress has now seven weeks in which to dispose of the entire business before it. There is some question whether that will be time enough, and whether an extra ses sion will not, after all, be necessary. Un doubtedly the House could transact all the legitimate routine business, and hare some time to devote to the various important matters that do not come under that head) but there is going to be trouble with the Republican Senate which may cause serious delay. Of the . six appropriation bills passed by the House before the re cess, three have been acted upon in the Senate, and numerous extravagant amend ments attached, to them increasing their aggregate amounts more than fifty per cent . And these are only the minor bills over which; there is seldom much disa greement. The remaining seven include the two most important the legislative, executive and judiciary, abd the sundry civil bills. In these are embraced some items which the House will decide to cut out Mr. Devens' little bill for the payr ment of his supervisors and deputy mar shals, and John Sherman's estimate for his secret service bureau, are two speci men items. Not - one dollar - of public money should be voted for either of these, andif the house stands firm the Senate will be'forced to concur orj take the res ponsibility of an extra session. This detective bureau isj.a festering sore upon the face of our civil service. It costs the Government $ 100,000 per annum, and is simply used by John Sherman and other diorenntahla politicians to! assist them in working up mean, contemptible schemes,' and besmearing zsn whom tney aisiiice or fear. It has never accomplished any real good, because if any viotator of the laws is ever discovered byj the concern, a small "divvy" insures him an easy escape. There are members of the j force employed wh,o are baser by nature and practice than the meanest thief they shadow or appre hend. The investigation' by a Senate committee into the chargej recently made by one of these tools gainst Senator Con- over, has caused Secretary Sherman to "reorganize" the bureauj but the reor ganization is only a change in form, with out effect r The fellow who has charged a United States Senator of Stealing a clause from a bill which he had railed to defeat, is still retained, although investigation fails to develope the faintest shadow of proof. Possibly somebody paid to have the charge brought. The bureau- "must go!" This only service it has rendered under the1 past and present administra tions has been to make "points" against parties personally obnoxiojus to the Presi dent or Secretary of the Treasury, and to assist in covering up actual frauds. The efforts of the : Republican . Senate to secure large appropriations for its par tisan officials to disburse, j is not the only evidence that the "hard times," is trouble some to most people, hive not reached the north! end of the capitol. The annual report of the Secretary of the Senate re cently rendered, w an interesting exhibit. Among the bills which Uncle Sam has paid are charges for pocket-books, worth, from $1 to $3.75 apiece; pocket knives, cost $20.48 per dozen; all sorts of fancy and expensive note paper and envelope, visit ing and mourning cards; corkscrews, worth $4.50 j per dozen; autograph albums at prices raging from 84 cents to $4.50 a piece; card papeteries, at $5 per dozen; fifty pounds of gum camphor, at 40 cents per pound; dozens of gallons of bay rum at from $4 to $4.50 per gallon; cologne at $8 per gallon; hundred thousand tons of ice, at 47 cents per hundred weight; dozens of gallons of alcohol; ginger, essen tial oils; shaving cream at $5 per dozen, Pinaud's soaps;- and other articles suffi cient to equip a well appointed fancy store. Eight lunches furnished the committee on appropriations, cost $1 20. Eight boxes of lemons and 120 pounds of sugar, which was used presumably for lemonade, cost $62.40. Senator Morton's clerk oT the committee on privileges and eleetions, got, besides his regular pay, $450 for "Extra" oA.n:.n trvj. J i: r .i .u TO1 ,,vcs uu ,,ar upiu got nearly $2,000 for services with the sub- committee that went toSouth Carolina. The latter is now getting in his work again with the Teller committee in New Orleans. It really begins to look as though George's monument will never be com pleted. When Congressi several months ago appropriated a big sum of money for the purpose people", assumed, reasonably enough, that something Would speedily be done. The old chimney called a shaft has stood twenty years in the present unfinish ed condition and the derrick timbers on the top of it have creaked and swayed in the wind until rotten, while the rain stains on the white marble have turned from red to brown. Last year there was a feeble attempt to spend the appropriation, but strange to say, instead of beginning on top of the monument, our modern engineers undertake to finish the shaft, by under mining its base, and after a seven thou sand dollar ditch has been dug, they stop to consider what to do next Plan after plan has been considered, adopted and then abandoned, and now, they are pester ing Congress again. ColL Casey, Super intendent of Public Buildings and Grounds, has submitted his ideas, and Mr. Story, the sculptor, has done likewise. When the stone from Rome, as the con tribution of the Pope, was seized and de stroyed by the Know Nothings, some ig norant old fool prophesied that the monu ment would never be finished. It certainly looks as if the managers were in con spiracy with the prophetp and by under mining its foundation propose to give the old tribute to the "Father of his country such a lift as to render its completion an impossibilty, if indeed they don't topple it over into the neighborhing pond, and so end it for all generations to come, j A New England Senator is reported, to have been thrown out of his sleigh, during the recess, and dragged some distance while holding on to the reins, whereupon a local poet sings : j There was an old man who went out in a I . sled, . When the horses kicked up and imme I diately fled, j For they thought by the beard it was old i Santa Claus, j But when he fell out lit was only old Dawes.

It is for the hon est Democrat as against the dishonest Bepub Ucan, and for the honest Bepubliean as against tbe dishonest Democrat.

That Is Thb Suit's Idea of Independence. In this respect there will be no change' n its programme for 1879. Thb Bust has fairly earned the hearty hatred of rascals, frauds, and humbugs of all sorts and sizes. It hopes to deserve that hatred not less lo the year 18T9 than In the year 1878, 1877, or any year gone by. Thb Sen is printed for the men and women of to-day, whese concern is chiefly with the affairs of to-day.

To this end the resources belonging to well-established prosperity a ill be liberally em ployed. The present disjointed condition of parties In this country, and the uncertainty of the future, lend an extraordinary significance to the events of the comlnc year. To present with accuracy and clearness the exact situation In each of its varying phases, and to expound, according to its well-known methods, the principles that should guide us through the labyrinth, will be an Im portant part of Thb Sub's work for 187.
