Their success will, therefore, depend upon the laws in the several States upon this subject and the provisions of the charters sev erally granted by them. Not having these at hand, we cannot venture an opinion as to the result. Judge Haskell, president of the Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta Railroad, and late a member of the Supreme Court bench of South Carolina, who was in the city Sunday, informed a representative of this paper that tbe directors of the Air-Line had authority under a general law of that State to make the lease, and it is not natural to suppose that they would have entered into the contract without examining into their privilege in this respect in other ' States, though the Supreme Court decision referred to 111 the dispatch, being of such recent date, may have been overlooked by their ad visers. In any event, it is hardly to be ex pected that the lease will be broken up. The road has been formally turn ed over to these lessees, under whose auspices it is now being operated, and some way will no doubt be found for staying the proceedings, for so long a time that the suit will then be aban doned. The recent failure of all at tempts to prevent the consolidation of the telegraph companies will serve to show how difficult it is to prevent the execution of a bargain of this sort.when once it has been made. But singularly enough, on the heels of this announcement, comes another that the Virginia Midland is going ahead with the projection of the line from Danville to Charlotte. Whether this can be taken as evidence of a real belief in the final success of their at tempt to secure the Air-Line, or mere ly an indication of a purpose to build the projected line any way, is a ques tion which does not yet admit of solu tion. The continued presence of "pro jection" and the conspicuous absence of any actual work on the part of the ir ginia Midland, has somewhat cooled the enthusiasm and dampened the hopes of the earnest friends of this line. The third matter of interest referred to elsewhere, is the policy of the Air Line under its new management, as geven by its general manager. It will be observed, however, that nothing very satisfactory was obtained from CoL Talcott, though he appeared to be perfectly willing to tell all he knew. wart wing of the party, having, in the words of the, report .of the caucus pro ceedings, "made and insisted upon the issue for sustaining and promoting the alliance of Republicans and Indepen dent Democrats in Virginia," they must keep their word with Mahone1 and Riddleberger and, in unclassic lan guage, let Garfield and his administra tion go to thunder.- . If such a scheme should immediately succeed, the difficulties that have arisen might perhaps be easily bridged over on the ground of party exigency. But all the Indications are that it will not succeed. The Democrats are , fortified iu their position, and nothing could be clearer than that they intend to hold it. Informing their friends ' on the other side ot the chamber that the body is now ready to discharge the business b fore it, they confidently and smilingly give them to understand that they do not propose to place it for one momtnt in a condition in which it will not be ready to discharge this business, and therefore if the administration is em barrassed, it is the administration's al leged friends who have embarrassed it, and it is" also they who can come to its relief by simply going into executive session. This is their position, and they are going to stand to it till the acorns fall, or, as they smilingly informed the Republicans yesterday, "until the 1st of December," when the limit of the ses sion will prevent their staying any longer. But the dead-lock can not last. The friends of the administration, the hon est, straight-forward portion of the party, and the press will not submit to it. Already notes of warning have been sounded by all three of thes9 elements. The stalwart faction will have to give in, or there will be the most remarkable breaking up yet known in the party; and all for the sake of "Mahone, Vir ginia!" This is the way it look3 now, and there does not appear to be any reason for expecting a change in the condi tions which will bring this result. The Republicans may make a little capital by appealing to the old sectional is sues, but it will not compensate them for their loss from their present unfor tunate attitude towards "Mahone, Virginia!" frdm Iowa .eastward to the middle of tfcfe Atratftlc coast.' -The centre of the vOUR STOCK OF- AND AND .::E .0 and by atVote which is said to have ieen substantially unanimous. The oaactis discussed the -fiuggestedxpe-diency of allowing the dead-lock to be broken from time to time by executive sessions for the confirmation of uncon tested nominations, but it was decided that at leas fbr the present this course would be uuadvjsafe. The only other matter touched "upon at to-day's meet ing was long continued delay m trans porting the remains of the late senator Carpenter to Wisconsin, and it aa agreed upon all hands that the members of the Senate committee appointed of this purpose' should make imme diate arrangements for pairing an proceed to perform their mission. ; 5 The arguments advanced in" the caucus as reasons ior an inaennite maintenance by the Republicans of their present position were in sub stance as follows: First, the question is shall a majority or a minority of the ISenate shall control our action ; that for the majority to succumb to the minority now in the matter of- the choice of officers would pave the way lor a submission to the minority in matters!' greater importance hereaf ter; tnaias mere ipm legislative oui- . . . 4 . .

Second, that a section of candidates nominated by the majority, including Riddleberger must be insisted upon as a means of sustaining and promoting the alliance between Republicans and Independent-Democrats in Virginia and other Southern States. It was argued in the caucus that the issue whether or not the Republicans of Senate will support the alleged movement in Virginia "for a free bal lot and fair count" has been joined b; the nomination of liiddlererger an that to abandon his proposed election would be prejudicial to the success of and most disastrous to the fall cam paign and greatly diminish the- pros pects of its spread through other por tions of the South. The New York nominations were not referred to at the meeting to-day, and it was noticeable, that the policy of delaying the transaction of the ex ecutive business until after the election of Senate officers was advocated by Senators who held diamatrically op posite views concerning the propriety of coi. firming these and other contested case?.

It is briefly announced in a telegram published elsewhere this morning, that the proposition to settle the State debt of Tennessee, has failed in one branch of the Legislature of that State. Three distinct propositions have been consid ered by that body. The first to pay fifty cents on the dollar of the debt of $27, 000,000 in installments within thirty years, at four, five and six jer cent. ; the second was to pay fifty cents, with four per cent, interest; time, thirty years. The third was to pay seventy five cents on the dollar at three per cent, which in thirty years would amount to $38,475,000. The present proposition is that the $27,000,000 be paid entire at three per cent, amount ing in thirty years to $51,300,000. This last is the proposition that was voted down, though a motion to reconsider has been entered. "What will come of it?" was the nat ural question after reading the Mahone-Voorhees tilt in the Senate Fri day. "Nething," was probably the gen eral surmise, and nothing, it seem?, will actually be the result The cor respondent of the Richmond Dispatch says: Maj. Rollins, of Madison county, N. C, sold over $9,000 worth of tobacco in Lynchburg last week. Hon. W. H. Barnuin, Gen. E. Burd Grubb and other capitalists are in Lynchburg, and will inspect the mine ral deposits in that section with the view of large investments. The General Assembly of the South ern Presbyterian church will hold its next session at Staunton, Ya., begin ning May 19. The membership of Mr. Spurgeon's church is 5,284 ; therfe has been a net increase of 54 in the past year ; 100 were excluded from membership for non- attenaance. The Bible is translated into 220 lan guages ; and since the present century began, there have been printed and circulated 148,000,000 copies, one for every ten persons on the earth. The 1,742,922 members of the Metho dist Episcopal Church raised last year, for benevolent and congregational pur poses, the sum of $13,532,045. which is about $3 for each member and probationer. During the past three months 109 failures were reported in New York city, with liabilities aggregating $4,877, 068, and assets, $2,202,437. Compared with the first quarter of 1880 there is an increaso of 26 per cent, in failures, while the liabilities are more than two and one-half times greater. A. M.

The Star havinz stated this af ternoon that Mr. Voorhees said he was willing to let the controversy between himself and General Mahone rest where it was, the correspondent of the Chica go Times called to-night to see General Mahone. He saw Mr. Riddleberger, who said if the Star had reported Mr. Voorhees correctly, then General Ma hone had nothing more to say. Voorhees, it is said, is not a duellist, and Bradley Johnson and Jubal Early were both unable to bring Mahone out The New York Times is dissatisfied with the bargaining between the Re publican Senators and Mahone. It says : "The "Federal patronage' prom ised (and which the Administration has already partly bestowed) is looked up on as reprehensible and injurious to the party. It is a league with repudia tion, xne adoption of Mahone and his party, bronjcht about by the means which are believed to be about to be adopted, woald cost the Republican party a great deal more than it can possibly gain from the possession of a, majority in the tThited States Senate."; A new sensation has ; appeared in Washington.

They were then shocked to find that they had received the blessing of a madman. Beaconttfield Condition London, April 4. Dr. Bruce visited Lord Beaconsfield this morning, as well as Drs. Kidd and Quain. Subsequently the three doctors held a consultation and issued the following bulletin, dated 10:15 o'clock a. m.: "Lord Beaconsfield was rather rest less until 3 q.'clock this morning since mac nour ne nas naci some quiet sleep; his coughing and expectoration is less tf onblesoine and his strength is main tained." This is thought to indicate a relapse in the condition Df the patient. The doctors potf ; being interviewed stated that the patient's condition is as favorable as they could expect, but the cold; .winds are seriously interfering with his progress. Dr. Kldd will visit the patient at intervals kluring the day.

The Senate resumed the consideration of the pend ing business, the resolution for the election of Senate officers. A motion made by Pendleton to go into executive session having been lost yeas 26, nays 29, Johnston took the floor. He quoted extracts from the Virginian, a newspaper edited by Rid dleberger, to prove the Democracy of that gentleman and of his colleague, Mahoue,and also from the Riddleberger bill to show that the Republicans were now found supporting a man for office who had announced in that bill that the adoption of 13th, 14th and 15th amendments was equal, in its terrible effects, to the war itself. He went with the same minuteness into the question of the debt of the State of Virginia, con tending that any f ailure to pay the in terest on that debt was not attributable to any desire to repudiate, but to the unfortunate condition of affairs which had prevailed in that State immediate ly after the war. Dawes inquired whether the Senator agreed with his colleagues in holding that West Virginia ought to pay a part of that debt. Johnson replied that he agreed with his colleagues and with the Supreme Court of the United States, in holding that West Virginia should be responsi ble for one-third. Leaving the question of the debt, he inquired of Mr. Dawes where and when in Virginia anybody had had to wade through blood to the ballot box as had been stated by that Senator. Dawes replied that the "Mississippi plan" was a general term, the specific names being attached to the different phases of "it in differentr Southern States. In Virginia it was called "op position to "vagabond suffrage." Did the Senator pretend to say that nobody had got hurt at Petersburg in the vain attempt to assert his right as a voter? Johnson stated that the charge that there was any smothering of the Re publican vote in Virginia was abso lutely false. If any tissue ballots had been used in Virginia, they had been used in his colleague's district Con tinuing, he confined his remarks to lo cal questions, commenting upon and vindicating the measures adopted in Virginia by the "funder" Democrats. In conclusion, he said: Judging from the speeches of the Readjusters, and from articles in their journals, the plat form of that party was first, a deluge of greenbacks; second, a place clause in the constitution that no contract be tween individuals shall be enforced; third, to burn the law libraries, and the fourth, to repudiate. Saulsbury appealed no longer to the sense of duty, to the patriotic feelings of theotherside.butto its party fealty to ground its weapons of rebellion against it3 own administration; If, any one needed commiseration it-vras the Fesi dent, who had been treated with such marked disrespect by his own friends. Even Hayes, whom nobody believed to have been elected, commanded some respect at the beginning of his term.
