manner in wMeh the $25,000 vas se
cured from the Dutch bondholders, a
representative pt Ws taper Asked
pointedly whatf Mr. Ddrtch Vec& ved 'as

$350; foxthi Mr; Dortch made one
trip to friori4aVfejpifcg thre or four
days; two different trips to
New York, spending seven days
there the first time and eight
days the next, and still another trip
to Philadelphia, where he remained
four days, on each occasion paying his
own expenses. When the $25,000 had
been secured and .deposited with the
treasuret olXhi road, Mr. t)ortch was
asked for the amount of his fee. He de
clined -U-giv-it,- saying he would leave
that to the board of directors. The
board er e3 te pay him $400, estima

" OYr;tne expenses he had incurred, and
Mr. Dortch declined to take more than
$350. How many lawyers are there
in the State who would have worked
for this sum when engaged" at home in
a lucrative ptadice? With Mr. Dortch
it was a labor of love. Being a direc

few days ago to discuss the. matter, and
appointed a committee to drnft resolu

meeting have not yet been published in

resolution endorses the sale of the road
on the most advantageous terms to be
obtained.

THE W. N. C. R. It. MAWAGEMExVr.
Are
I here Freight Xlscrliniua.tlo:i,
and if So, Where)
To the Editor of The Observer:
Raleigh, March 23. I notice in your
issue of yesterday a letter signed "Cape
Fear," copied frdm the' Wilmington
Star, in which the writer Indulges in
some pevere criticisms upon the man
agement of the Western North Caro
lina Railroad in regard to freight rates,
&c. The writer complains that the
citizens of Wilmington . are so badly
treated and seems to manifest a great
deal of sympathy towards the people of
the West, because they are "deprived
by Maj. Witeon of the right to ship their
produce as they will or receive their
goods as they may elect."
You state in your editorial comments
that if the statements- are untrue the
publication will furnish a good pretext
tor their denial. I am depot agent at
Hickory and being familiar with all the
rates issued for the transmission of
goods over this road, have the infor
mation that will show your readers that
there is no just cause for complaint.
During the past six months the citizens
of Charlotte and Wilmington have been
specially favored, as the many mer
chants who have been receiving goods
from this road will testify, and 1 think
it very ungrateful in the citizens of
either place not to recognize these fa
vors with due appreciation. To illus
trate: The freight on "cabbage, apples,
potatoes, and other goods of. like char
acter, "when Bhipped from ilickory to
Charlotte or "Wilmington, has been only
0 cents per hundred pounds to States
ville, (that being the point where they
left this road,) while the same goods
when shipped to any'other point were
charged 9 cents per hundred pounds to
Statesville. General merchandise and
all first class goods were charged only
14 cents per hundred pounds to States
ville when the destination was Char
lotte or Wilmington, while if the same
were destined to any other point the
charges were 29 cents per hundred
pounds to Statesville. Can you see any
oUscrimination here against those two
cities? 3o; but it is plain to even the
casual observer that the discrimination
is in favor of those places and against
every other towrn in and outside the
State.
It is a little peculiar that the corres-
Sondent should be so extravagant in his
enunciations- of Maj. - Wilson V man
agement of the road when he (the cor
respondent) evidently knows but little
about what he was writing. If the
above "exhibit does not satisfy the cor
iesppndent, and those who may have
believed his statements, that he has
grossly misrepresented President Wil
son, I think them incapable of appre
ciating favors when extended.
Respectfully,
J. S. Tomlinson.

siding in various States, into a nation;!
educational association, lo make reports
on educational affairs to Congress, was
taken up and discussed. It was op
posed by Cockrell, . Hereford and In
galls as outside the jurisdictionf of Con
gress, and advocated by Bailey and
Hoar &3 constitutional and in the inter
est of national education.
Pending debate the morning hour ex
pired, and the Geneva award bill was
taken up.
Garland addressed llie Senate.
"Mr. Garland spoke at lenj,rtli in snp
Iort of the bill, and was followed by
Dawes in opposition thereto.
At the conclusion of the hitter's
speech Kernan obtained the floor but
without further debate the Senate went
into executive session juid when the
doors were re-opened adjourned.
Hoitsf. Conger said in examining
the record-this, morning he found that
the bill relating to the whole question
of the tariff, amending thirty sections I
of the revised statutes, hail been re
ferred, in violation of the rules, to the
committee on revision of the laws, in
stead of to the committee on ways and
means. He alluded to the danger which
arose from the bill not clearly stating in
its title its subject matter.
Townshend, of Illinois, said that he
had introduced the bill, whose title
clearly showed to what it referred
when it stated that it was to revise
and to amend title 33, of the revised
statutes, and that the committee on re
vision of the laws was the proper com
mittee to which it should go.
A short debate ensued in the course
of which Heed, of Maine, insinuated
that Townshend had smuggled this bill
into the House without stating that it
was a tariff bill, and had it referred to
the committee on revision of the laws
instead of to the ways and means com
mittee, where it should and would have
gone had the House been aware of its
nature.
Garfield moved to amend the journal
so as to make it appear that the bill
was referred yesterday, as it should
have been by the rules of the House, to
the committee on ways and means.
Nichols, of Georgia moved to lay this
motton on the table.
A long, confused and excited debate
ensued.
Garfield and other Republican mem
bers insisted that Townshend, under
cover of an indefinite title, had intro
duced the bill making sweeping
changes and reductions in the existing
tariff, and had moved its reference to
the committee on revision of the laws,
where he knew it would be favorably
acted upon, instead of to the committee
on ways and means, where the rules
of the House prescribed that it
should go, and where he (Town
shend) knew that it would not be
favorably acted upon. The Honse, in
ignorance of the true motive of the bill,
whish was not read, and in reliance
upon Townshends good faith.had agreed
to refer it as he suggested. It was now
proposed to correct by amendment of
the journal the error which it had com
mitted. An excited personal colloquy took
place between Garfield and Townshend
the former charging the latter with
practising deception on the House,
while the latter declared Garfield's
charge to be a wilful and deliberate
falsehood. Townshend defended his ac
tion in having the bill referred to the
committee on revision of the laws upon
the grounds that the protectionists in
the ways and means committee smoth
ered all bills looking to a reduction of
tariffrjuid he wanted this bill to be re
ported to the House, so that the people's
representatives might have a vote
on it.
The whole afternoon was consumed
in an animated and often excited de
bate upon the question of tlje beet
means of correcting the error Made bj
the House yesterday in allowing refer
ence of a tariff bill to the committee on
revision of the laws. Without final ac
tion upon this eubject the House at 0:10
adjourned.
CONFIRMATIONS.
The Senate to-day confirmed the fol
lowing nominations: Wm. J. Phillfps,
to be United States marshal for the
Eastern District of Texas ; George Tay,
to be collector of customs for the Dis
trict of Cherry stone; Va. The nomina

The Washington Relics.
In the Supreme Court of Kings coun
ty, N. Y., Friday, judgment was enter
ed by Judge Pratt against Walter S.
Church, a lawyer of Albany, for $2,
003.40, with interest for three yearsV in
the suit brought against him by Mrs.
Ella B. Washington, the widow of
Lewis W. Washington, who was a
grand-nephew of President Washing
ton. After her husband's death, Mrs.
Washington sold a number of relics of
George Washington to the State "of
New York for 20,000. the negotiations-
Deing conducted by Mr. Church. He
paid over to her 15,000. butr-clatmed
that the remainder was duOtq'hiafl "tot
his services. Mrs. Washington "brought"
a suit to recover the remainder, alleg
ing that Church offered to conduct the
sale from patriotic motives. The case
was referred to William D. Veeder,
who reported that the amount in
CHurch tfarfda was $4,488.45, "and that
the defendant was entitled to $2,494.95
