TlM13lVlIiliC!WnB0TOJr. ject diseased in our local columns, we i'late'mfcettiil rir&inti Midland Railroad, as fejflica- tmlrtliif ptiioscs with reference to a route to the cotton belt, or rather it weald be more accurate to say, as indi cating what they would have te people interested believe are their purposes : It was also learned yesterday that at the meeting on Saturday there were two routes proposed for the Virginia Midland, which were discussed at some length, but neither absolutely selected. The extension to Walnut Cove the first 50inUes-4ff included in both plans, and, oft ccjarsaikdl tot fcQf affected by the indecisiofc as to tne route further south. Alter leaving Moofesville, the road ruus to Iron Station, Lincoln county, N. C where the different routes branch off. They are known as the western and eastern routes, the former being the one mentioned in Sunday's Ameri can. This route, which is the cheapest, would, from Iron Station, run! over the Carolina Central Road, a distance of twenty-two miles, to Shelby, Cleaveland county. Here the work of building would be resumed, for thirty-five miles, to bring the Offld"to.Spartanburg. At Mitarnninfi tfiA rottehsion Would taD the proposed extension f 'the KnoxviUe & Augntft'Jroaa, jano, passing over the latter road "through Greenwood, Laurens county. S. C thus get into Au- guata -The second or easterly route, which has never before been published, diverges directly BorrnrJrom Iron Sta tion, and avoidine" tSD4rtahbunr alto gether, boldly strikes through the coun try feeding the latter city, thus secur ing the traffic at first hands. It would pass through Gastonia, Gaston county, whert the: narrow gauge railroad to Chester" and Columbia would prove a valuable and available connection Leaving Gastonia, the extension would curve around to the southwest through York, Union and Laurens counties, passing through Greenwood, where it would tap the KnoxviUe and Augusta Koad, thus affording the same connec tiOns as the' western route. It was in timated yesterday by several gentlemen who are familiar with the intentions of the Virginia Midland company that this latter route would be chosen as one entirely independent of other roads, and at the came time, more of an air line. An examination of the routes here outlined, forces ns to one of two con clusions; either that the Virginia Mid land does not intend to build any line at all, and is merely endeavoring to create ab impression of their intention to do so, to force the Richmond and Danyille. Railroad to accede to its demands at Danville; or, that they de sired that their plans should appear to be in this undetermined state with view to inducing competition in the way of rendering aid to the enterprise ; in other words, to get the people to bidding against each other. That a line, the avowed object of which is to drain thexotton belt, should studiously avoid all the centres of trade by performing beautiful: curves through the woods, is too absurd to contemplate for a mo ment "Securing traffic at first hands" is a very pretty little idea, but railroads are not run on poetical principles, Traffic is a thing whose abiding place is very near the centre of population and generally the more hands it passes through, the better. We have been dis posed to give the Virginia Midland people credit for sincerity of purpose but when it comes with-propositions, first, to run within twenty-five miles, then to come within fifteen miles, of a city which, including all inward and outward freight 'and passenger travel does a business Approximating a half million dollars a year, our faith weak- It is not pretended to say, however, that the Danville connection will never be builf. On the other hand, it is more than hxelj that sbmi; dy W will be constructed, mainly, however, through the exertions of the people along the line, who expect .to receive in time the rtuivaiaa ox U jmoneTJiu!yjnay.subr scribe, in the way of an increase in the value of the property thJ jwldj Neith er do we desire to be understood as oc cupying position inimical to that line- On jtfce contrary, we heartily in door the proposition to send delega- tiexuto -lYiaaton taexpresa our. good will, and to set forth the advantages we are able to offer We furthermore belief that4 such a-delegatioa can clearly demonstrate that it is to their interest to come to Charlotte. If they desire then to go further and form a connection with Augusta, this could be done via Yorkville, Anderson, -Laurens and Greenwood. If Charleston be their objective point, they have the admir able connection at Camden.. Further still, if they merely seek a good seaport, that of Port Royal, by the Port Royal Railroad, is stjilj open to bidders. TheAngusta papers announce with con siderable satisfaction and pride that still a&otiiez cotton ' factory is to be built in that flourishing manufacturing city. The new enterprise is to be known as The JKing Manufacturing Company," rramed in honor of Judge Jno. P. King, Qne of Augusta's oldest and most wor thy citizens. It is said that the origi nators of the scheme rely on their abil 17 to raise a million dollars for the purpose. The factory is to be erected to'the cauaLwhich the city of Augus ts built at a cost of two million dollars. U ;the increasein her cotton factory enterprises coatinues during the next lew years,- as it has dpring the last IJve, the tax on this class of property alone will' pay the interest on the debt, to ; say, nothing of the large improve ment of her general business which these have brought about.

The Shelby County Fair As sociation have tendered the use of their grounds and buildings for the display of machinery, before the association. The transportation lines have reduced thefr fare to the- lowest rates, and all clubs and manufac- turersojf agricultural machinery are invited. ' The exposition is to be under the auspices of the Mississippi Valley Cotton Planters' Association, the an nual meeting of which will be held at the same time. Commendable interest is exhibited in the enterprise, and a successful exposition is expected. A news paragraph has stated that the Legislature of Indiana has passed a bill srivinff women the richt of suf frage, and that it was expected the Governor would promptly sign the bill and make it a law. It seemshowever, that the women will have to wait a little longer for the ballot there. It ap pears that the measure has simply pass ed theLegislature submitting it to a vote of the people whether or not the con stitution of the State shall be amended so as to allow women to vote ; and that measure has to lie over two years until the next Legislature ratifies it, before the people can yote upon the question. By that time it is to be hoped that both the Legislature and the people will have come to their senses on the sub ject of female suffrage. No one who has thoughtfully read the reports of the Senate debates can have failed to notice the number of times it has. been necessary to correct Republican Senators in their state ments of facts. Neither can he have failed to observe how seldom Demo cratic Senators have been called to ac count, except as to their intimations concerning the existence of a bargain, It is simply an illustration of the force of habit, to put it mildly. Mr. J. W. Alspaugh, secretary, tele graphs The Observer that the meeting of directors of the North Carolina Mid land Railroad will be held in Winston on Tuesday, the 2Gth inst The Balti more Sun's report of the meeting of the Virginia Midland directors referred to the meeting above mentioned as oc curring on the 2Sth,and hence this date has been given in Tins Observer. Those interested in the Winston meeting will therefore take notice that the 26th is the day. The State of Rhode Island disfran chises its ioreign-born population un less they are owners of real estate Many have been the complaints made against this injustice, but it has been found impossible, up to this time to rectify this wrong. This is one of the illustrations of a free ballot and a fair count.' A special telegram from Kuoxville, Tennessee, in regard to the "Western approach to Faint Bock, says': "Contracts for completing the North Chrolma extension or the .East Tennss- aee Road to the North Carolina State line will be awarded to-morrow. Trains will run direct from KnoxviUe to Charleston by the beginning of winter. A FRAUD, The Sort of ZIujx Dawet't Victim I. Washington, April 21. The follow ing is the telegram received by Senator Jonas, to-day irom .Lieutenant ixovern- or McEnery, which was referred to in his remarks in the Senate to-day : "Have sent the statement to the Democrat, the New Orleans newspaper or that name ; will De reported to Wash ington ; too lengthy to wire to you. Heath's statement is absolutely false. The property was burned to obtain in surance. It was insured for $4,000: valuation by appraisers to adjust the loss, $100.

Two cars floated t)f down : the stream : one passenger coach noated against the island aoout four rods away. The baggage car stuck in the middle of the stream.

THE 8E5ATC XESTfiBDAlft Citke Punctures Dawi and Dawet'i 'Victim la Pro red to be a kfraad. Washington April 21. Tne Vice- President laid before the Senate the unfinished business, being a resolution for the election of Senate officers by unanimous consent. On motion of Edmunds, the papers on the files of the Senate relating to the subject of bankruptcy were referred to the committee on the judiciary. Cose took the floor in reply to por- tionsjof Fry's speech, which he declared to be remarkable for the recklessness or its statements and falsity of its charges. It arraigns the people of a whole sec tion and made charges which, if true, E roved that those people were not fit to e associates for any civilized people. He did not envy the man who could find it in his heart thus to speak of any person or people oyer which the flag of his country floated. He did not believe the people endorsed the denunciations of the Senator. He believed that they were more patriotic and had more pride of country than to endorse it. The man who fermented strife and stirred up sectional feeling and incul cated animosity could net be a states man nor could he De a patriot, lie tnen proceeded to reply to the charges made by h rye or rraua upon tne Danoc in Texas, denying explicitly their truth, and referred to the charge tnat in Har rison county, in that State, violence had been resorted to, to keep the Republi cans from the polls. This wholesale charge against the people of that coun ty is not sustained Dy a single record, by a single affidavit, by a single state ment, except that of the Senator of Maine, and was false. He meant it in no offensive sense to the Senator, who of course made his statement on infor mation, but he branded the charge as false from beginning to end. The sun of heaven did not shine upon a land wherein thought, in utterance and m action, the people of all classes, condi tions and colors, were more tree man in Texas, and every allegation to the contrary he stood here to denounce as false and slanderous. The senator rrom Maine had taunted the South with its poverty. That poverty had been brought about by war and by infamous carpet- A 1 1 t 1 3 Dag governments wmennaa Deen piaceu over the Southern States under the re construction acts. The people of the South were now striving, in every State, to make honorable payment or honorable adjustment of their debts, They were taxing themselves to the ut most-capacity tor the establishment 01 free schools, believing that universal education must co with universal suf frage. Jonas said that he had yesterday tele graphed to enquire as to the truth 01 the charges that the Massachusetts man, Chas. Heath, had suffered persecution in Louisiana, and he had been inform ed by telegraph from New Orleans that a complete vindication of the peo ple of Caldwell parish would be for warded to him immediately. He had also received a letter from a Massachu setts gentleman, stating that Heath's reputation for truth was not such as ought to be defended by the Senator from Massachusetts (Dawes). Jonas declined to give the name of his informant, "for fear he would im peril his life in Massachusetts." (Laugh ter.) He had, however, telegraphed to the gentleman for authority to use his name. The Atlanta Jc Charlotte Air-Line in v Court New York. April 21. Some lima since the Atlanta & Charlotte Air-Line Railroad wished to lease the road to the Richmond & Danville Railroad company. A number of the stockhold ers of the Atlanta & Charlotte Air-Line objected to the terms of the lease and obtained an injunction from Judge Donohue, of the Supreme Court, pro hibiting the carrying out of the same, and counsel tor the defendants pro cured an order removing the case to the united fctates court. The Plaintiff then moved to have it remanded to the State court. The motion was granted to-day by Judge Blatchford in the United States court. Preparations for Lord Bcaconsfield's Funeral, London. April 21. Gladstone has written the following letters to Lord Rowton: "I have learned of the de cease of Lord Beaconsfield with sad surprise. I shall be prepared to give directions for a public funeral." Sir Nathaniel Rothschild on behalf of the executors replied thanking Gladstone. and stating that Lord Beaconstield's will directed that he be buried at Hush- enden by the side of his wife. Another Western Flood. Chicago, April 21-A telegram from Elgin, Ills., reports that the railroad track is four feet under water and trains cannot pass over it inside of 10 days. The bridges there and at Dundee are Dadly damaged. The aggregate damage Tuesday afternoon at Elgin Will amount to fl50,U00 to 8200.000. The chief items are the breaking of the Elgin Hydraulic Companies dam and race banks, damage $25,000; the de struction of the Chicago street bridge. $300,000, and the Chicago, St. Paul and Milwaukee Kaiiroad bridge, 8100,000. Judye Avery Injnred. Raleigh News-Observer. While on his way to Oxford from Henderson, early Monday morning, to open Granville Superior Court, Judge Avery was painfully injured. He was in a hack with Rev. c. T. Bai ley, when the horses took fright and ran down a steep hill. Both gentlemen jumped out, and in doing so were hurt in the legs, the judge ia both legs and .
