By WILLIAM H. BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C.i Satubdat Morning, Jan. 31, 1880. THE WAR OP TUB RAILROADS. We have been deterred from men tioning editorially the great railroad fight ,an account of which fills bur leading Southern exchanges, because of the space that would be demanded to give an intelligent and full view of u. In order to understand the merits of the struggle our readers would have to be familiar with the many roads embraced in the fight, and besides have before them a rail road map with the route laid down before them. The Louisville & Nashville Rail road has bought a controlling interest in the Nashville & Chattanooga Railroad and its dependencies. The significance 'of the purchase lies in the fact that these two roads have been competing for many years to get control of the trade of the South. The Columbia Register says: " Tbeflrst distinct move in the game was the purchase of the Southern or Kentucky link of the St. Louis & Southeastern Rail road between Nashville and Eransville, which had been a feeder of the Nashville & Chattanooga Railroad in its St. Louis business, and thus made the Nashville & Chattanooga Road independent of the Louisville Railroad, its old feeder. This was a very natural and necessary move ment on the part of the Louisville company, for with the St. Louis business turning one Hank of Louisville on one side and the Cin cinnati Southern on the other, the fair Falls City of the Ohio seemed to- incur the risk of being stranded and left high and dry in the great struggle for Southern trade. Tne very necessities of Louisville, there fore, made her fight like a rat in a corner for a trade that naturally and geographical ly belonged to her. The Nashville & Chattanooga met the movement with a broad and comprehensive counter-movement, and laid its plans for a grand scheme which should control the St. Louis and Northwestern trade from the Mississippi to t be sea, from the lakes to the Gulf, and thus to make Nashville the controlling bead cen tre of the vast traffic." . Colonel Cole had charge of the last movement. There are other de pendencies that come in. It is unne cessary to mention them as they would merely perplex the reader without a map. At one time it was .thought certain Colonel Cole was master of the situation. The Register says: "The lease of the Georgia Central arid " its dependencies from Atlanta to Savannah by Colonel Cole and his friends was the complete transaction by which the Nash-?-ville & Chattanooga, through its great bead, Colonel Cole, gave its powerful rival the coup de grace." But the "best laid plans, &c.,n fail in railroads as in other things. In the meantime the Louisville & Nashville Company was busy in making pur chases andiorming; combinations. It purchasecUhe South and North Ala bama RailroacL It bought a majority of the stock in the Mobile fc Mont gomery 'Road, thus securing an unin terrupted line frorn Louisville to Mo bile. Its nextCmbvje was to boy the Louisville, New: Albany & Chicago Railroad, running from New Albany, opposite Louisville, on - the Ohio7, to Michigan City, .on Lake Michigan, some sixty miles south of Chicago. It was thus made strong. The next move was a proposition from the other great rival road to consolidate. The Louisville Road got possession of the Georgia .Western. This save ' it a shorter rdutethan the rival road could eive. Finally the Louisville Road went to work to bay, a controll ing interest in its rival. The Register says: ;"': "Without lbs knowledge of the Nashville; and Chattanooga parties, the Louisville par ties had succeeded in getting enough of the stock of their rivals to give them a majority of the outstanding shares provided they could capture the holdings of one of these gentlemen.1 It is not necessary to .show how this was accomplished. It was a great stroke. The contract was made in New York, and was .aonounced at the time by telegraph. The road thus purchased owned $6,500,000 of stock. If the other roads interested should confirm the sale,' then, according to the New York Times, the -Louisville & Nashville Railroad will have abso lute control of 3,500 miles of railroad "the largest aggregate under one management in the world." The Times says: "Tne combination will include, what may be denominated the Louisville & Nash ville main line, from Louisville, Kentucky, south to New Orleans, Louisiana, via Nash ville, Tennessee, and Decatur, Montgomery and Mobile, Alabama, with small branch line from Pollard, Alabama, on the Mobile & Montgomery road, to Pensacola, Florida; ube Louisville, New Albany & Chicago road, from Louisville north, vlar Lafayette, Indiana, to Michigan City, on Lake Michigan, whence connection can be made to Chicago by way of the Michigan Central.1 Pittsburg & Fort Wayne arid Grand Trunk routes, or by a new road sixty-five miles long; a branch of the Lou isville & Nashville road, southwest only from Memphis Junction, Kentucky, to Memphis,. Tennessee; the SL Louis & Southeastern road, southeasterly from St. Louis, Missouri, to -Nashville, Tennessee, via Evaosville, Indiana; the Nashville & Chattanooga Read, still southeasterly from Nashville, Tennessee, to Chattanooga, Tennessee; the Western & Atlantic Road, from Chattanooga, Tennes see, to Atlanta, Georgia; and the Georgia Central Road, from Atlanta to Savannah, via Macon, besides numerous minor1 branches. These will give an uninter rupted route from the fresh-water lakes to the Gulf on one band, and from St. Louis to Savannah on the other. A complete monopoly of through Southern traffic will be secured; every outlet, from Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia below Cincinnati, on the Ohio, and Memphis, on the Mississippi, will be controlled, and all competing or other lines will be made pure ly local or contributary." Whether or not the victory is com plete remains to be seen. Col. Cole may still be. able to make a fight. North Carolina ' has some interest in this battle of the magnates. It is no t simply a great" strdggle i between: competing capitalists, bat a fight in which States are interested. It is possible for Cole to form an alliance with the Cincinnati Southern. If this is done the victory may not bo all on one side. The Augusta Chro nicle says: "There is no denying that the Western & Atlantic Road is still the key to the situa tion Cole and his friends control that Suppose the Cincinnati Southern offers him what he has lost at Nashville? The Cincinnati Southern has four lines to Chi cago and the lake region. Why not Col. Cole get bis alliance here, and fn a month! have a route from the Norlbwesi to the ocean, without building a foot of road, as good as the one betas lost?" While the Louisville & Nashville Road is thus fanning its combina tions for the trade of the South and Southwest, it gives no consideration to the trade of North Carolina. Un less that road regards the trade of this State as important North Caro lina must look to Chicago or Cincin nati, possibly to the latter, for an opening of a continuous line from Cincinnati to Wilmington. THE PROPOSITION TO SELL THE W. N. C. RAILROAD. The Stab has had nothing to say about the effort to buy the Western North Carolina Railroad by t. Syndi cate represented by a Mr. Best, of New York. The papers of this State that have discussed the matter are considerably divided io opinion as to what ought to have been done. The proposition is stated to have been this : "Mr. Best proposed that the Legislature should be called in extra session-to transfer the road; that he and his associates would form a eew - corporation, with a capital stock of $4,000,000; that the new corpora tion should have power to mortgage the road to the extent of $12,500 per mile; that they 8boun complete the X Tench Broad branch by the first of July. 1SS1. and the Dacktown branch bv the first dav of July, 1885, that they should pay the in terest on the mortgage of Soo.OOO now on the road after the first day of May, 1880,. and, of course, the mortgage itself (for which the State is not bound); that they should give the State $850,000 of stock in the new corporation ; that the State ehould furnish 500 convicts per, annum until the first of J uly, 1885, to .complete the road, the company pajing nothing lor said con victs except expenses in guarding, clothing, etc" e have;:her?pT,;witheI4: baflwhich contains eight caeesof choice music. hand in hr&ntf had not the time to give the inatV ter that matured consideration which was necessary to write nnderstanding- ly about it. Wo desired to be go verned by facts, and not by any sel fish or narrow considerations. The Charlotte Observer deprecates the sale of this road. It evidently re- gards" such. a .procedure-as- fraught with many evil- consequences. It takes this view, supposing the sale made to a " Syndicate which would have thej .powerliVispose of the right to make allj connecting links between Charleston . and - Knoxville. Nprth Carolina enterprise": o lhe taervhandi i suppose the State holds her grip, the completion of the road between HAsheville and :Wolf Creek, belnir a necessity, can act be long delayed, and sherwui taen oe ma concilium w iurn, this vast trade1 in .indirection of her owni - ... - . - - -f-? . seaports, andjtfharleiton must .come u VAnh rUrft1lna towns to bnv her Western 8UppneB. 11 tM tuia MVHO iu umuu.j i handsfith Norfolk on the nortfihancr Charleston on the south, and the Richmond & Danville Railroad a feeder to Richmond, Charloue and other Norih Carolina towns would have a rough time of it.",' r If there is money, for .a , Syndicate in the road thereadttght "after, there ought to be profit for the State in the same road. From what exami nation we have been able to bestow upon the merits of the question, we have arrived at this decided conclu sion: that the sale ought not to have been made, add that.Gov. Jarvis de serves credit for his aotion in the mat ter. It would be a great blow to the interests of the larger1 portion of the State. Viewed in all its bearings, as far as we have been able to dis cover, them, we can see no good and sufficient reasons for yielding to the Best offer, but we can see most satis factory reasons for opposing it with all due emphasis and vigor.. 'We shall considei the matter-of the road and the interests of the State under a new aspect in our next issue. THE COURTS. The Warsaw Brief Mention, dis cussing the necessity for certain changes in the court system, thinks there should be four Superior Courts for each county yearly, except in the smaller counties for which three would answer. It is for abolishing all Inferior CourtB, special proceed ings before olerks, and all final juris diction of magistrates. In developing its plan it says: . "Let the county commissioners of each county decide how much, time the criminal docket would probably consume each term, and let the parlies and witnesses in civil causes be summoned for the day after; then if the State business was through the civil docket would be taken up, otherwise the State -docket would be continued until dis position had been made of all the cases, then the civil causes would be taken up. If the State causes were disposed of before the day for civil causes, the judge would remain until that day and then proceed. The four terms would render it probable that civil causes would be reached by .Wednesday or Thursday in.most counties, and the parties and witnesses not being summoned until the day appointed, would be an immense saving to the people, while, if the State business was dispatched before the day, no one would be at aoy expense by the Judge waiting until that day." It assumes throughout that the creation of more Judges and circuits is a necessity, and that by it the peo ple would be very greatly benefited and money would be actually saved. Not beiug lawyers we do presume to speak from practical knowleJge of the deficiencies of the courts. If they are as is represented by the legal .editors then some changes ought to be made and will be made sooner or later. The Stab will very cheerfully favor any changes in the judicial system by wbioh the tax-payers are to be beuefited and money actually saved. In the present system as far as the jurisdiction of the justices of the peace is concerned there ought to be changes made of a most radical kind. The grain receipts of Baltimore for the weekending January 17th were nearly equal to those of New York. The latter received 616,829 bushel?, the former 565,250. It is the Republican State Com mittee of New York - that meets to day and not Convention as pub lished. The "Best proposition" is the worst proposition. THE MAGAZINES.

Mr. John Blight's suggestion for the relief of Ireland is not likely "to take a practical form, nor "would" its adoption be wholly desirable. Virtually the plan proposed : by the Member from Birnrmgham is but a substitution during the next thirty-five years of an impersonal for a personal landlord; ol the Crown for the indi vidual proprietor; the payment of rent, instead of quarterly as at pre sent, being meanwhile transformed into a long drawn out repayment of the purchase money. In some iso lated cases this plan probably would work very well. Small farmers, hav ing good farms and going about their .work with energy, would be able to save enough out of their earnings to meet the demands of the govern ment, and probably would succeed in paying off their debt in a period con siderably short of the fixed limit. But in the majority of cases there is room for believing that the proposed scheme of relief would work more harm than good. Phila. Times. A Colored Duel. Savannah enjoyed the sensation of a duel last week between two colored men, both of whom were seriously and probably fatally wounded. It seems, says the Morning Netos, that Tom Clark and Charles Houston, two co lored men, between whom ill-feeling had long existed, met at the store, where a number of other negroes had gathered, and got to drinking. The old quarrel was renewed between Clark and Houston and the former, who had his gun with him, proposed that Houston, go and get his gun and they settle their difficulty by an exchange of shots. Houston, who resided in the neighborhood, hastened home, and, procuring his gun, returned to the scene. Ground was marked off and the combatants faced, when, without any further preliminaries, both fired simultane ously and both fell at the same time. The guus were heavily charged with buckshot. Clark was shot in th left side and breast, some of the shot, it is presumed, entering the lung. He was brought to the city and carried to the office of Dr. Cuishohn, who examined his wouud, and found it to be very serious, and he was sent to the colored infirmary. Houston, who received three or four shots in the body, two in the abdomen, was car ried off by his friends, and was be lieved to be in a dying condition. Edison's Latest Patent. ) Washington Republican, 28;h Among the patents issued yester day was one to Thomas A. Edison for an electric lamp. The inventor claims that he has discovered an electric lamp for giving light by in candescence, consisting of a filament of carbon of high resistance secured to metallic wires. The combination of carbon filaments with a receiver made entirely of glass, and conduc tors passing through the glass, and from which receiver the air is ex hausted; a carbon filament or strip coiled and oonnected to electric con ductors so that only a portion of the surface of such carbon conductors shall be exposed tor radiating light; a method of securing the platina contact-wires to the carbon filament and carbonizing the whole in a closed chamber. The- application for the patent was filed on the 4th of No vember last. Prosperity In Mississippi. . The press of Mississippi, without exoeption, chronicle much prosperity throughout that- State. The Vicks burg Herald says: "Mississippi ap pears to be emerging from the gloom of a long depression into the bright ness of a permanent prosperity. All the productions are bountiful, prices are good, old sooresare being wiped out, and all the people feel that there, is 'life in the old land yet.' A planter showed his books to a newspaper cor respondent, in which, out of seventy five names of tenants, share-workers and hirelings, but one had failed to pay his bills and have money ahead, and the reason he gave for the ex ception was that he had dabbled in politics last summer and lost his crop through sheer neglect."
