- H. CLn A ayXMTP-OlUIW MATTM.V , ... THtTRSDAY, AftllL' 14, 1881. . There w itiidqfl, and should be, we . :canceiTe,.thtooghoutthe State, no dis position to laogb at Mr. Best. He baa vlinquestionabljdone , the ..State some Service and his worst enemies bare yet been unable fo show that his purposes were not sincere, though his methods haye not Been such as to exempt him from criticisnf. It may prove, and is in deed now very likely to prove true that he will not be able to realized the ardent hope with which' he closed, amid rap turous applause, his speech before the last Legislature in 18S6; namely, "to car ry them across the Blue Ridge to Paint Rrk and Piceon River." but there is nothing to show that his desire to do so was not genuine and his faith implicit. If he has failed through adverse cir cumstances of coming the ehief in strument 'in accomplishing this great work for the State, he is nevertheless an essential element in the forces that will accomplish it The Richmond fc Danville company could never have gotten the road front the State, on ac count of prejudices which then un doubtedly existed and which need not be analyzed or criticized here. Mr. Best, then, accomplished what the Richmond & Danville road could not do, and now they In turn promise to-do what Mr. Best could not' accomplish. "When, therefore the road has been completed and the celebration of the event is at its highest, we hope to vote for a resolu tion thanking Mr. Best for his efforts in helping the State to -build a railroad which she confessedly was not herself ab'.e to build, and which must in any event prove an advantage to her. It now appears that the Richmond & Danville Railroad has not actually obtained possession of the North Eas tern Railroad which runs from Lulu on the Air-Line to Athens, Ga. It is said by a Georgia paper that the action of the council was simply to submit to the people, the proposition of the Richmond road, which is that if the city of Ath ens will give the Richmond and Dan ville people the stock it owns,, it will hind itself to extend the Northeastern to Clarkville in two years, to Rabun in five years. The matter will as it now stands bevoted on about the last of this month. But there are some who think that the vote will be postponed in order to give theGeorgia road achance to make a proposition as to the extension. The feeling in Athens is against the Geor gia road getting control of the North eastern, but the friends of the Augusta corporation contend that it will make a much more liberal proposition than the Richmond and Danville has made. If this is so, public sentiment may fihanirft front. m Georgia is greatly excited over a big combination which has just been made in that State. The board of directors or the Georgia railroad have leas ed that road to the owners of the South Carolina railroad, consisting of Wil - liam Wadley, John II. Fisher, Moses Taylor, Samuel Sloan and others, the lease to take effect fromApril 1, 18Sl,and to run for 99 years. The anual rental to be paid to the Georgia railroad com pany is $600,000, in semi-annual payments. This is ten per cent on the capital stock of the . Georgia railroad and its bonded indebtedness. A dispatch from Augusta says: "Messrs, Wadley & Co., deposited $1. 000,000 in United States bonds, or bonds of good value, as security. The Geor gia Railroad company is to retain pos session of its bonds and stocks in other corporations, but is to give dividends and voting power to the lessees. The lessors are to pay the interest on the debt of the Georgia railroad and the Macon and Augusta railroad, and are to retain the banking department and all the real estate of the company es sential for railroad purposes. The or ganization of the company is to be maintained. The lessees are to keep the property in good condition and are to place no incumbrances on the same. The lease is not to be submitted to the stockholders for confirmation, but sim ply awaits the signatures of the con tracting parties to go into effect This lease iS in the Interest of the Louisville and Nashville and the Central railroad of Georgia." ' No news has yet been received from Baltimore concerning the reported pur pose of the business people of that city to take some action touching the ex tension of the Virginia Midland to Charlotte, but a strong editorial in a leading paper of that city, setting forth the necessity of a new Southern rail road connection, tends to confirm the reports already published. At midnight on the third of April, the taking-of the ninth decential . census of Great Britain and the seventh of Great Britain and Ireland underthe authority of parliament, was commenced, and at midnight on the fol lowing night, the work of enumeration was completed. The plan of census taking in use in England differs in many respects from that adopted here and the opinions of experts very wide ly as to Which plan effects the best re sults. The English one-day system leave8.it tp the individual to personally fill in the inquiries of the schedule, the blanks being left from house to house' on the evening preceding the day of enumeration, and called for on the fol lowing day by the enumerators. Mr. Farnell has at last expressed : himself regarding Gladstone's proposed y Irish land law. It does not meet his approval In all respect, but be hopes . . to be able to secure some modifications , i of objectionable features. He thinks , AbB most objectionable , feature to be that which provides fur emigration, . .contending that there is land enough If it. b properly developed On the - 'whole, he says, "The increase will lead - to' ver remarkable results, if our peo ple; maintain their organization ' and Bsisted, as up to the present, by the sympathy and practical help of Amer ica. With these advantages I trust that tn the course of aiew.years it will lead to the utfilttien of Michaelpa- vitt's programmeithetibolition oflwiaV lordUsnal andtheS prosperity of &our; country". MORE LIVELY TIMES. THE SENATE DEBATE VERT PER SONA!.. mahone Tackles Hill, and Da wet hi A gain Caught in a. Villainous Htifc repre Mentation. Washington, April IS. Senate, The Vice-president laid before the Senate the unfinished business, being the resolution for the election of officers of the Senate. Beck said that yesterday some differ ence of opinion had existed as to the position of the senator from Illinois (Davis), the Senator from Louisiana (Kellogg) had written a statement from that gentleman showing that he was paired; on the motion to go into ex ecutive session, on which question, if present, he would vote "yea." He was also paired on the main resolution, on which, if present, he would vote "nay." Dawes: Was it that to which the Senator alluded yesterday when he said that the wind had shifted. Beck: No; the wind has been blow ing steadily against Massachusetts for the past few days. Pendleton then took the floor. He said the course which the Republicans had followed, without precedent in all history, in insisting that the busi ness of the Senate and of the country should be delayed and postponed until the Senate should be disorganized and reorganized, had been defended on va rious grounds by its various apologists oh. this floor. The Senator from Mas sachusetts (Hoar) had charged the ac tion of the Democrats with being revo lutionary, but had subsequently, when pressed by the Senator from Georgia (Brown-) retracted that charge. Mr. Hoar said that he had not made that charge, but the action of the Dem ocratic side taunted him now; into im puting it, and he did so now impute it. Pendleton replied that the gentleman now made the charge without any qualification and he would leave it to the gentleman from Georgia (Brown) to again make him retrsct it. His col league (Sherman) had stated that the struggle now going on here was a struggle for political power in Vir ginia ; that it involved the destruction of the Democratic party in that State, and the installation of the Republican party there. The instrument to be used to bring about this result, was giving to Riddleberger a brigade of employes of this Senate, paid at the public's ex pense to perambulate that State and to watch and win local elections. This was the struggle to which the Demo cratic Senators were invited. The gage of battle had been thrown down and he volunteered, in the presence of his Democratic brethren, to take it up. The Democrats would invite the lie publican side over and continually to go into the discharge of public busi ness. They would submit to its guid ance in the transaction of that busi ness; that they would industriously and faithfully consider the nomina tions, and when public business was all discharged, they would unite in ad journing the Senate. But they would not assist in descrating that altar (pointing to the clerk s desk) consecra ted to the discharge of the great public duties ; dedicated to the service of all parties, but for the partizan use of none, and permit it to be made the in strument of political wartare and the spoils of petty partizan triumphs. At the conclusion of Pendleton's re marks Dawes took the floor, and in the course of his remarks charged that the committee for the arrangement of Sen ate committees, appointed by the Dem ocratic caucus, approached Senator Ma hone, or that some of them did, in Some way, offer to Mr. Mahone to give him or any man whom he would name, the s,ergeant-at-arms if he, Mahone, would vote with the Democrats. Pendleton demanded that Dawes should name the Democratic Senator who had been guilty of anything of the kind. Harris said he was a member of the Democratic caucus committee and de manded that Dawes should name the Senator or Senators on that committee who had in any manner approached Mr. Mahone. Harris begged Dawes not to deal in innuendoes, but to name the Senator, declaring that unless he did so he (Har ris) would not believe a word of it. When Dawes again took the floor there was a general call from the Dem ocratic side to "name the man, name the man." Dawes said he had not charged any Senator with "anything of the kind." He would say that leading Democrats had, before this Sonate met, approached Mahone with a proposition to give him the sergeant-at-arms for his vote. .Butler asked if the Senator from Vir ginia listened to such propositions. uawes interrupted. Butler said: Will the Senator pardon me. Dawes interrupting: I have not pow er to pardon you. Butler: But you have the power and the disposition to be very pert and dis courteous, and added that he would not go into that kind of debate. Mr. Pendleton said that if Mr. Dawes had been informed that any prominent Democrat had ever approached Mahone that information was utterly false. Hill entered his emphatic denial of the charge made by Dawes. He was one of the committee appointed to pro- jjuae ah urganizauun oi me committees of that body, and he stated emphatical ly that that committee made no dtodo sition to the benator from Virginia as to what should be done for him or as to how he should vote, and any state ment, intimation, innuendoes or insinu ation to the contrary was utterly false and untrue. The Senator from vir ginia had been discussed in the com mittee precisely as other new Demo cratic Senators had been, and he would have thought it an insult to that Sena tor to indicate to him that it was nec essary in order to gain his vote to make a proposition to mm. mahone denied that any Senator on either side had ever approached him improperly as to the organization of the Senate. He repelled the sueeestion that , he ' could be approached by any person wim a pian or scheme, or combination-to reach ends that were not legitimate. He had an extraet from the discussion in the Senate last Thurs day read at the clerk's desk. -1 At the point . where in response to the .suffgestion bv Rollins that the Democrats had been seeking to make an arrangement to secure Mahone's vote, Hill replied: But, we would not nave bought it Now, Mr," President, continued Ma hone, that - language admits of two interpretations, and I come to ask tha Senator from Georgia, as his language in one aspect implies that my vote had been or could be bought, whether he intended to convey any such idea. Hill, in his seat: Go on and I will answer. ' Mahone: I am ready for you to an- ier now. Hill: I prefer to wait till you get turougn. . Mahone. with emohasis: I have nnth Ing more to say, but to ask that simple question. ; , Hill: Now, t shall make that Senator the answer which I feel he or any oth er Senator ought to make to me under use circumstances, ana l tea exact! the truth. I inferred from the remarl made by the Senator from New Hamp shire that he was charging that we had sought to make an - arrangement (that was his language) by ? which we would control the vote of the Senator from Virginia bo as to get the organization or the senate, and in response to that, I said that we would hot have bought it. i meant simply to negative what l un derstood to be the charge of the Sena tor from New Hampshire. That is what 1 intended to negative. The Sen ator from New, Hampshire seemed to be going on : the assumption that the other side was charged with having bought the vote of the Senator 1 from Virginia,, and he seemed to be implying that we had wanted to buy it and could riot doit. I denied (address ing himself directly?, to Mahone) that we did buy your vote;l denied that we wanted, to buy your vote.1 denied that ' we would have bought your vote. We would not have given you a fig for your vote. That is what I intended to deny. I .did not charge that the Senator had sold his vote. I do not say now that the Senator has sold his vote. I would not charge unless I knew it to be a fact that any Senator had sold his vote. If the Senator wants me to go farther and to say what I believe, that is a different question ; and I wish to say to the Sen ator now that it he proposes to call to account everybody in this country who has a belief on that subject, he has a heavy task on his hand3. 1 will make no charge against any Senator, but let not any Senator invite ray opinion or compel my opinion by seeking to make that a charge which is not one, because he may get that opinion and get it very fully, Mahone: 1 have nothing to do with the Senator's opinion. I have risen to ask the benator from Georgia a plain. direct question. He says I will have everybody to call to account. That is not the question. The Senator from Georgia has used language which has been read. He knows whether he in tended to convey the impression that I sold my vote or thafc my vote had been bought. He knows that (with empha sis) and I respectfully ask whether he so intended ; that is all. Hill: I answered you fully. It will be in the Record. Mahone: As the Senator fails here to answer directly a direct question, I will give him a problem to solve. He shall have a conundrum. I say to him that if he did mean to imply that my vote had been or could be bought, he states, or undertakes to convey that which is toul, untruthtul, ialse; and that no man less than a coward would make it. Now, I say to him, that he can solve in his own mind whether he so intended or not; (addressing himself directly to Hill, in a menacing tone.) you can solve that, sir, if you choose. That is all that I have to say to you now. Hill rose to reply, but Mahone, con tinuing his remarks, said: You can solve that question for yourself or whether you intended to convey that meaning or not. A good deal of ap plouse in the galleries which the pre siding officer (Kellogg) endeavored to repress.j Hill (studiously emphasizing every point and expression) : Mr. President, I have too much respect for the Senate, too much respect for myself, too much respect for the people to bandy epithets with the Senator from Virginia or any other Senator here. I have never sought to receive, or to give, or to vent an insult in this chamber. I would not insult the Senator in this chamber. The Senator cannot insult me. He is power less to insult anybody. The Senator asked me a question. I answered his question ; I answered it explicitly. That answer is on record. It will re main there. It was a truthful answer; I answered precisely as I thought and felt at the time I used the words. Any Senator can read those words. If the Senator (Mahone) thinks that he (em phasizing the pronoun) can suppress gentlemen in discussion in this Senate by assuming to play the bully, he has made a mistake. On motion of Dawes, adjourned. municipal Election. Albany, April 13. The Democrats yesterday elected 22 out of 33 supervi sors. The Democratic majority for justice was 3,352. The Republicans did not make much more than half their usual showing in the vote, owing most ly to local dissensions. Elizabeth, April 13. The munici pal election at Rahway, yesterday, re sulted in a Democratic victory. Jos. W. Savage, Democrat, was elected mayor.

Balelgh N. C News and Observer, March 8L, .. "WINE OF CARDUl" for Ladies only. For sale by T. C. SMITH. aprill THE ADAMS MINING & REDUCTION COMPANY This company was Incorporated under the laws of the State of New York, October 2, 1880. The casual stock'ls SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLL IBS, ($600,000), divided into One Hundred and Twen ty Thousand Shares n?nn(f,. m Hlva Dollar ($5.00) per share. The Stock is Forever Unassessable. The Object of th nnmnanv la not to eneaira In the business of mining metallic ores, but to smelt the ores of gold and silver, and refine the base bullion; to smelt also the ores of copper and Iron, and for this purpose to purchase these ores and pay for them In cash, according to their assay val ue, deducting only the cost of treatment and a fair prone Large bodies of au these ores are now available from many large mines near Charlotte, and from many others, easily accessible by rail. The location of the comnanr's works is the most eligible that can be desired. It comprises ten acres of ground, in fee simple, within on and a half miles of the centre of the CITT OF CHARLOTTE, In the State of North Carolina, on the-line of the Carolina Central Hallway, which connects at this place with several other railroads, radiating to all parts of the country. Sugar creek, adjoining the company's property, affords an abundance of pure water. One hundred aeres of land in addition, ad- iolnlng the company's plant, and well timbered, lave been bonded by the company, through both oi woicn tracts a very vaiuame goia mine runs. The works of the company are already partly finished. The entire machinery has been manu factured In Boston, New York, New Jersey and Pittttburg. A considerable portion of It has ar rived, and the balance ha been shipped to this place. It ha aU teen paid for. It is en a grand scale, and of superior workmanship. It comprises a magnificent steam engine and boilers of 200 horse-power; crushers, pulverizers, a piston-blower of 60 horse power, to furnish a hot blast for the smelter, which Is large enough to smelt the con centrates of one hundred tons of ore per day; rousting iumaces, large enoogn to roast one hun dred tons of ore per day; mills, capable of pulver izing this amount as fine as wheat flour; and three concentrators, of sufficient capacity to concentrate the same; with steam pumps and toggle presses sufficient to compress the concentrated ores, mix ed with pulverized fluxes, Into balls to be charged into the smelter. The comiany expects to have these works fin ished and ready to run in about three months. They have already erected a sDlendid stack cost ing nearly one thousand dollars; an assay office, Z4X3oieei, ana two stones nign, new supplied with the largest and most perfect assortment of chemicals, furnaces, tools and apparatus ever seen in any similar establishment A large bwildlng, BO ieet square ana two stories high, is rapidly ap proaching completion, and the materials to finish It are all on the ground. The foundations for tha smelter and roasting furnaces have been dug eat, and all the materials to build them with. Includ ing the iron work, fire bricks, and tiles, have been entirely finished and made ready to set up. These works, it is believed will outrival the larg est and best works of the kind ever built In this country. They -are chiefly the Inventions of PBOFESSOB HENBT W. ADAMS, of New York, according to whose patents and per sonal supervision they are constructed. Science, skill, enterprise, and good business management unite to render It reasonably certain that the stock of the company will be a sure and profitable In vestment Mine owners, business men, and all classes of citizens will be benefited one way and another by the success of this company. It is evident that the company means business solid, legitimate business, carried on upon sinciij ousiness principles. Already a large amount of money has been expended, and the cempany has reserved one-fourth of Its entire cap ital stock to be sold for working capital, the pro ceeds of which are to be expended in the purchase of ores, fuel, fluxes, and In carrying out generally toe great unaenaung. The trustees, officers and stockholders of the company are chiefly New York capitalists, lnclud also several of the most distinguished men of the nation in high official positions. The president of the company Is Prof. Henry W. Adams, A. M., M. D., LL. IX, whose well known scholarship, genius, experience, and prestige, em inently qualify him fer the position; nls extensive knowledge of chemistry and metallurgy, together with his long experience in assaying and smelting ores and preparing fluxes, and his Invaluable pa tents for roasting and smelting and fluxing ores, and for parting and refining the precious metals, are, to those who know his acquirements, a sure guarantee of the company's suecess. The compa ny owns all his patents for the State of North Carolina, and it Is believed that they will be a source of great revenue when the success of the present works shall be fully demonstrated. The establishment will embrace fixtures and fa cilities for parting bullion and refining the pre cious metals by a new, rapid and successful meth od, also Invented by Prof. Adams. This process Is unknown and unpractised in the world; It is simple, rapid, and vastly cheaper than the old method. This branch of the business cannot fall to give the company business, prestige and profit It Is expected by the company to manufacture, in due time, sulphuric acid from the sulphur con tained la the ores, and also to manufacture bricks, equal to the Philadelphia pressed bricks, from the waste material obtained from the process of con centration. As It has been thought best to give the citizens of Charlotte and of North Carolina an opportunity to participate In this enterprise, and to help it for ward by becoming personally interested in it the company offers a portion of their treasury stock at the low rate of ene dollar ($1.04) per share (the par value being five dollars per share) to any one who may desire to become a stockholder. Below may be seen the very generous and mag nanlmous endorsement of this enterprise by many of our most prominent and influential fellow-citizens. We, the undersigned, citizens and business men. do hereby certify that the Adams Mining and Re duction Company have located their works near this city, on the Carolina Central Hallway, and are now erecting the same on the said site; that these works are now go ing up on a very large scale, with a view to smelting a large amount of the geld bearing sulphurets and other refractory ores; that these works are being erected under tho direction of an eminent engineer, chemist and metallurgist; and that we endorse the enterprise and encourage the promoters of it by this hearty expression of our good will and approbation. We have every reason to believe that the works will prove suc cessful, and be highly advantageous to the miner al Industry of this State. F. 8. DkWouk, Mayor. ' B. Y. Mcadkn.
