Raleigh News and Observer. In a ftnnvAraat.inn with (rOVernor Scales yesterday he expressed him self as highly gratified at the present condition of the Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad under the man agement of President Washington Bryan, and said that he would have every reison to feel satisfied with its condition at the expiration of his ad ministration. The Gjvernor gave boioo facts in oonnection with the rod aod its management under the presidency of Mr. Bryan. When he took charge of it it was in an exceed ingly bad state of repair. The rails wtji-c old and worn out, the bridges wero .dilapidated, and it was in a condition of general decay. To com pare the road now with its condition then shows striking improvement. , Governor Scales says that the bonded debt of the road now amounts to about $325,000 and will not ex cnt-d with the floating debt added mora than 1350,000 or 1360,000 at the outside. The new bonds which beir six per cent, int-rest have been exchanged for the old bonds which bore eight per cent. The road will hive at the close of Governor Scales' administration steel rails from one nd to the other from GoldBboro to Morehead City and its rolling stock and other property are now in aplen did condition. No road could be in L'jiiro admirable aod satisfactory run ! i iter order than is the Atlantic and North Carolina at present. Its financial status not only shows a tuod improvement but is positively flourishing and prosperous. The stock when Gov. Scales came in sold for 7 cents, and it is now selling for 22. Governor Scales, iu ppeaking of board of directors, yesterday, also said that he hid every reason to feel gratified at the course pursued by them from beginning to end. No one hd criticised a single official act of theirs iu the administration of the affairs. of the road and they enjoyed the confidence of the whole State, both individually and as a body. Upon the whole, Governor Scales is to be congratulated upon! the steady improvement and the 'final excellent condition of the road dur ing his administration, and President Bryan is to be congratulated upon his able and successful management of the property. As Governor Scales said yesterday, he has proved him self an honest, faithful and oapable ouiuer. TBEKJ) BY A STUFFED BEAR The Thrilling Experience of a Newark Prlultrand Hauler. Newark, N. J , Dec. 15. Charles Nieholn, foreman of the composing room of a Newark newspaper, met with a terrible experience yesterday while; hunting in'the mountains about Greenwood Lake. While walking alonsr the line of the railroad near R nwood 'station Nichols was sud denly confronted by a bear of un commonly large sizoe. For a mo ment the hunter could distinguish nothing but the white teeth and O glaring eves. The bear was appa rently as much bewildered as Nich o. for thev both stood motionless for several" seconds. Then the hunter made 'for the nearest tree, up which he scrambled with an activity that belied his gray hairs. In another moment the intrepid hunter bad unslung bis shot gun and was sending shQt after into the carcass of the animal. But even unexampled treatment brought no response from Bruin. At length the cartridges were ex hausted, and although the thermom eter was down to 10 decrees above zero, Nichols was compelled to re main in his cramped position four solid hours. It was only wnen a tram rusnea off to the station for freight that re lief came, and then it was discovered ' that the bear was only a stuffed t.kin that had been placed there by a tax idermist for removal to New York bv the freicht train. Mr. Nichols' shot sun, however, had rendered the skin useless, and be will probably have to buv it in order to avoid a .-- lawsuit. A ' onculiiK Story Senator Blackburn, of Kentucky, is quoted as telling the following etorv: "Four days before 1 went to-the front with my reeiment, we had a little girl baby.' She is now prown, and you always see her with me at any social gathering. Well, in our army, the jEurlougbs came verv rarely indeed. When we got iuto line there was no great chance for a man to get home. It was about three years afterward that a few of us .were one night goiBg down the " Mississippi on a river steamer. 1 bad been sick and was "retmrnineto my command, but pretty .well broken ud even then. As for money, we did not have any; and the night was hot as I lay down on the deck, ray throat almost parch ed with thirst. Pretty soon a little girl made her apperance with a big glass of lemonade. I tell yottit look ed good to me. She saw me e it, stopped a minute, looked very doubtfully at me, but finally oame ud to mv side, and said, Yuu look as if you wanted something to drink,' and banded me the glass, it wasn't aaite the sauare thine to do. but I took it and handed it back to her empty. It was like nectar to me. Then I most cordially thanked the little creature, and sent her away, Soon after, just like every child, she came back, leading her mother to see the poor soldier. You can imagine the reunion. They were with my brother's family, arid happened to be ffoioc down the river. That was the oniy time during years' fighting that I saw my wife and baby; and, under these ciroum stances, what man would ever forget it?" , , m 0g Bs i "' -- """" Sapraat' Court Decision.

There is light at last on a subject of vast importance to all vegetable eaters. It seems that a green vege table is as surely injurious to health as green fruit. But cooking will generally render a fruit harmless, while it will not do so for a vege table. A recent case of wholesale poisoning of French soldiers was traced to the solanide in unripe po tatoes. This esculent is poisonous more often than is supposed. Iffdug before maturity the tuber is by no means safe. But far worse is it to use a potato for food that has, after being dug, been exposed to the light for any length of time. They should be stored in the dark as soon as dug. If bitter they should never be eaten. he more discoveries are made as to our health and to our sanitary needs the less we seem near to a true knowledge of the best conditions for sustaining health and life. An Uprlgbt Judge. At a murder trial: Judge: "Before you begin your testimony, Mr. prisoner, it is my duty to instruct you that you are not obliged to give any statement criminating yourself. Proceed sir, with your story." Prisoner: "Well, your Honor, I'll own up at the very outset that I shot the man." Judge: ."Oh, you acknowledge that, do you? And upon what prov ocation, pray?" Prisoner: "Well, your Honor, it was only ten days after election, and he came in the cars, cornered me in a Beat, and began to talk tariff." Omnes: "What!!!" Prisoner: "Yes, your Honor and Gentlemen of the Jury! and when I warned him, he yanked out what he called a tabulated statement of the comparative compensation of all the wage workers of the world and be gan to dish that out to me, and " Jndee: "Great ScottI UentlemeB of the Jury, yon are instructed to bring a verdict of justifiable homicide." A Wonderful Fitly. John E. Madden, of Lexington, Ky., has purchased for $7,500 the three-year-old filly "Bosque Bonita," fired by "Macey's H mbletonian." She is considered by all the drivers the best three-year-old trotter that has been shown in Kentucky this season, and some say, all tbiDgs considered, she is the best ever shown in Kentucky, as she was hardly broken in June. After two or three drives she was found to be a real wonder, which her races prove con clusively, as she trotted a half mile in 1.07, getting a record of 2.26, which is the best record in the world over a half-mile track, and she did it in the fourth heat of the race.

Mr. Mor rill offtred a resolution, which went over for the present, to bold evening sessions hereafter, the Senate to take a recess daily from 5.80 to 8 p m. At 18 40 the President pro tern. (Ingalls) laid before the Senate the resolution of Mr. Rladleberger, proposing a reorganiza won or me senate alter January 1st. anc the author spoke in : support ot it. He said its object was to put some other than the Senator from Kansas in the chair, as serting that he had been the chief figure in the most disorderly Bcenes he cnild reel lect occurring on the Senate floor. He said a change was neeessary hi order that the faith of the Republican party pledged to the consideration of the British extradi tion treaty in open session, might be kept. At the conclusion of his remarks Mr. Rtddleberger asked leave to withdraw the res Mution, but objection was made by Mr. Harriss, of Tennessee, who moved to lay it on the table, and called for the yeas and nays. .. After paying a high tribute to Mr. In- galla' impartiality and ability finally, the senator irom Virginia was permitted to withdraw his resolution, and the incident closed. - The Senate then resumed consideration of the tariff bill at paragraph 147, refer ring to taggers Iron. This paragraph and the two preceding ones (on the same sub ject) were passed over informally without action. The next paraeraph (148) was as 4 to spites, nuts, washers and horse, mule or ox shoes of wrought iron or steel," im posing a duty of 1 8 10 cents per pound. , Mr. Vest moved to amend by reducing the rate to 1T cents per pound. After discussion the amendmendment was relect ed yeas 19, nays 21. The next paragraph (149) was as to wheels or parts of wheels nude of iron or steel, and steel tired wheels for railway purposes, (wholly or partly manufactured) imposing' the rate of 2i cents per pound, and of If cents per pound on ingots for the same, without regard to the degree of manufacture . Mr. McPherson moved to amend by ma king the rates 2i cents and li cents per pound respectively. After a long general de bate upon the tariff subject Mr. McPherson 's amendment was recede t, The holiday adj mrnment resolution was laid before the 8enate, and was referred to the Committee on Finance. The conference report on the House bill to retire Maj r General A J Smith as col onel of cavalry, was presented and agreed to.

The Senate then proceeded to executive business, and at 5:15 p. m. adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. On motion of Mr. Pbelar, f Tennessee, a bill was passed for the incorp iration of the American Historical Association. An drew D. White, of New York, George Bancroft, of the District of Columbia, and Ju4tia Windsor, of Massachusetts, are am ine the incorporators named Mr. McMiIHd, ot Tennessee, from the Committee on Ways and Means, reported back the concurrent resolution introduced by Mr. Hooker, of Mississippi, providing for a holiday recess from Friday. Decem ber 21st, until Monday, January 7'b The committee propose an amendment striking out Honday, January 7ih, and inserting Friday. January 4th. Mr. Hooker thought his original proposi tion was preferable. There would be nothing gaintd by the House meeting at the close of the week, while an adj tura ment until Monday would be of great c m venieDceto mt rubers living at a distance from Washington. Mr. Springer, of Illinois, was of opinion that owing to the press of important legis lation before Congress the recess should be as short as p Bsible. 1 he committee amendment was rejected yeas 98, nays 108. and the original reso lution was agreed to. The Speaker proceeded to call States for tho introduction and reference of bills. - After several Interruptions for the pur pose of killing time. Mr. Spinola, of New York, arose and said that he held in his hnd a bill which he would introduce, by request, d sclaiming any responsibility for a single item in it. When it came before the House for consideration he would ex amine it carefully and thoughtfully, and would vote upon it as he thought best. He sent to the clerk's desk a copy of the Senate tariff bill, and demanded its reading. Mr. Onthwaite In other words, the gen tleman has joined the filibusters. Mr. Spinola It means that we will cot have tbe Nicaragua bill to day. Mr. Dunham, of Illinois, moved to ad journ. Lost yeas 44, uays 183. i Mr. Spinola then withdrew, the bill, and THr. Call continued, and several more bills' we're introduced. Mr. Springer, of Illinois, on behalf of the Committee on Territories, moved to suspend tbe rules and adopt a resolution making the Senate bill for the admission of the State of South Dakota, and for the organization of the Territory of North Da kota, the special order for to-morrow, and from day to day until disposed of, pro viding that the omnibus bill may be offered as a substitute therefor. Thereafter, other bills relating to tbe admission of territories, shall be disposed of in tbe order fixed by the committee, The motion was agreed to and tbe resolution was adopted. Mr Dibble, of South Carolina, on be half of the Committee on Public BuildiDgs and Grounds, moved to suspend ibe rules and pass a bill appropriating $430 000 for the purchase of a site for a postofiUce build in at Washington, DC. Mr. Eilgore, of Texas, demanded a second, when no quorum voted, and the House at 4.15 p. m. adjourned. SENATE. : Washington. December 18. The reso lution for an evening session was taken up, and the amendment offered to it by Mr. Morrill, providing that, until otherwise or dered, the daily hour of mee ing of the Senate be 11 a. m , and that at 5 30 each day a recess be taken till 8 p m. Mr. Vest opposed the resolution. He fully appreciated tbe present condition of affairs, considered from a political stand pjiot Democratic Senators, wno were not members of the Finance Committee, could not have been familiar with the de tails of the tariff bill, and had no time to examinerthe schedules. It was simply out of the question that they could do so. On account of the sickness of Mr Beck, wotk had been devolved on some other Demo cratic Senators that was irksome, but that had to be performed, and now a proposi sition to change the hour of meeting Bnd to hold evening sessions was simply (if Sena tors were to do justice to the details of tbe bill), cruel and outrageous. For his part be could not agree to it, and would not agree to It. Tbe resolution was also met with deter mined opposition from Messrs Vance, Harris. Voorbees, Blackburn and Cockrell. and was advocated by Messrs. Hoar, Haw ley, Aldrick, Allison, Morrill, Sherman and Dawes. Mr. Cockrell moved to amend the resolu tion so as to provide for a daily meeting of the Senate at 11 a. m.. but not to provide for night sessions Ri-jected 25 to 27. Mr. Gray proposed an amendment pro viding for a daily meeting at 11 o'clock, and for night sessions during the remain der of the week, with the understanding that the concurrent resolution for a holiday recess be agreed to. Mr. Morrill, with a view of arranging a compromise with Senators on the other side, asked foi a postponement of the reso lution till to-morrow. There was no ob jection, and the resolution was postponed till to-morrow. Mr. Morrill then reported back from the Finance Committee tbe House concurrent resolution for a holiday recess, with an amendment restricting it to the House of Representatives; cmd that also went over till to-morrow. The Senate then resumed consideration of the Tariff bill, taking it up at paragraph 150, in reference to wire rods. Mr. Turpie moved to change the phrase ology of the bill by substituting mills instead of tenths of a cent, in stating fractional rates. Rejected. Mr. Vest moved to amend paragraph 155 which relates to saws, by reducing the rate on saws, not specially enumerated, from forty per cent to thirty per cant ad valorem. He asserted that American saw-makers and manufacturers exported every year to Can ada a lai ge amount of that article and paid thirty per cent duty to get into the Cana dian market, there - undersold the British manufacturer, and made a profit of 1& per 'cent.' - .. Mr. Saulsbury, as an Illustration of the asme principle, said that he bad recently befn told by an American "cotton manu facturer, that he bad a contract to deliver several hundred bales of cotton goods in Manchester, Eogland, at Manchester prices. The idea of protecting labor, he said, was a delusion. Labor had to pro tect itself Who would be free themselves must strike the blow." If a" manufacturer were constituted a trustee to divide profit, he would pocket tbe whole himself. That was the universal experience. The amendment offered by Mr. Vest was re j acted. 19 to 24. The Senate, having disposed of about three pages of the bill, proceeded to tbe consideration of executive business, and at 3:35 adjourned. HOUSE O F REPRESENTATIVES . " Mr. Springer, of Illinois, stated that he would not call up the territorial bills to day. There would he a meeting of the Committee on Territories to morrow, and it would then be determined when these measures would be considered. There was a brief contest between Mr. Blanchard, of Louisiana, in charge of tbe River and Harbor bill, and Mr. Randall, of Pennsylvania, in charge of the Legislative Appropriation bill, for precedence of their respective measures, Mr. Randall being successful, and the House proceeded in Committee of the Whole (Mr. Blount, of Georgia, in the chair), to tho consideration of his bill. There was no interruption in tbe reading of the bill until Mr. Holman, of Indiana, offered an amendment increasing tbe num ber of messengers on the "soldiers' roll" of the House from 14 to 20. This amendment caused a political debate and was finally rejected, 53 to 66. Mr. Henderson, of Iowa; moved to in crease the clerical force of the Civil Ser vice Commission, and the amendment was opposed by Messrs Rmdall, Spinola and Cummings of New York and others. Mr. Henderson said the increase was asked for by the Commission, and that it should be granted if Congress desired to enforco the law in good faith; but he charged that the soirit of the law had not been carried out in good faith by tbe present administration. The Civil Servico Commissioners were defended by Mr. McMillan, while Messra. Cummings and Spinola made a fierce on slaught uoon the Civil Service law. and earnestly advocated an amendment striking out all appropriations for its enforcement. Mr Henderson's amendment was re jected, 27 to 60. Mr. Randall said he had never agreed that there should be fastened upon the country the class of officeholders, but that since tbe civil service law was enacted.be had always voted the appropriation necessary to operate ft. His friends on the other side would soon be in charge, and tbey could make tbe civil service law spread ail over tbe country and embrace all office holders. He was waiting with a good deal of anxiety and an expectation of amuse taent to see their attitude in tbe next Con gress, when they would profess to execute their extreme anxiety in connection with the civil service law, (Laughter.) Mr. Cummings, of New Yjerk, moved to strike out the whole clause relating to tbe Civil 8ervice Commission He did thiB, he said, because it setmed that every bill that was introduced m the House to.repeal the civil service act had been bud in committee, and be saw no othca waj of reaching the subject than by curtailing tbe Commission, by striking out the appro priation for its: maintenance. He be lieved the Commission undemocratic, that it favored certain voters at the expense of other voters, acd he knew that if the rules of the Commission wtro applied to mem bers of the House, not five-eighths of tbem would ever reach the floor again. Laugh ter Believing the Commission to be un democratic and in violation of the funda mental principle of the laws governing the Republic, he moved to strike out the whole section. Mr. Spinola looked upon the motion of his colleague as a healthy one Liughter Mr. Randall requested Mr. Cummings to withdraw his motion As long as the Civil Service law! was on the statute books he was in favor of appropriating money to enforce it Mr Cummiag replied that he would gladly withdraw his motion it he saw any other way of reaching the Civil Service Commission. I do not, he continued, de sire to obstruct tbe passage of the bill, and if tbe gentleman from Pennsylvania will agree to fake a yea and nay vote in the House I will withdraw the motion now. Mr. Randal, I cannot, because I have no instructions from the committee to do so. Tbe general subjects of civil service, ia reform, and the civil service law and its ad ministration, were discussed at great length by Messrs. Springer, Browne, of Indiana, Compton, Lodge. Jackson, of Pennsyl vania, McComas, Bynum, Buchanan and Cu'cbeon. The motion of Mr. Cummings, to strike out tbe whole seciion in relation to the Civil Service Commission was then re jected by a vote ot 25 yeas, 133 nays, and the reading of the bill was concluded with out further interruption, and the commit tee having risen the till was passed, i Mr. Tillman. ' of South Carolina, from the committee on Military Affairs, reported the Military Academy bill, appropriating about $900,000, and it was placed on the calendar. The House then at 5 o'clock ad j)urted. SENATE. Washikgtoh, December 19 Mr.Evarte, from tbe Committee on the library, re ported back with verbal amendments House bill to incorporate tbe American Historical Association Tbe amendments were agreed to and tbe bill passed. Mr Edmunds introduced and bad refer red to the Committee on Foreign Relations, tbe following joint resolutions; Resolved, That tbe Government of tbe United states will look with serious concern and disapproval upon any connection of any European Government with the con struction or control of any ship canal across the Isthmus of Danen or across Central America, and must regard any such con nection or control as injurious to the just rights and Interests el tbe United Stales, and a a menace to their welfare. Resolved, Thtrt tbe President of the United States be rt quested to communicate this expression of the views of Congress to the Governments of countries of Europe. Tbe Senate at 12:40 resumed the consid eratton of the tariff bill, taking it up at paragraph 174 "(referring to gold leaf) No amendment was offered to that or to the following paragraph relating to hollow ware. ; Mr. Reagan called attention to par agraph 176. fixing the duty on lead ore and lead dross at if cents per pound, with a proviso that lead ore containing silver, or silver ore contain ing lead, shall pay a duty of li cents a pound He referred to it in connection with ores from Mexico: and said that the adop tion of the proviso would break up smelt ing establishments in El Paso He moved to strike out the proviso. Rejected afttr some debate yeas 18. nays 28. Mr. Reagan . then moved to amend by making tbe duty on lead ore and lead dross 1 of a cent per pound, instead of li cents. That rate, he said, would be equivalent to thirty percent ad valorem; and, consider ing weight of ore, amount of Waste matter contained in it and the fact that it had to be transported by railroad to smelting works, it was a b'gfr rate. The clerk then read paragraph 177, taxing lead in pigs and bars two cents a pound. Mr. Vance moved to reduce the rata to li cents. .r ' Mr. Voorhees then spoke at some length against tbe bill itself, attacking it in gen eral and in detail. Mr. Hawley replied to Mr. Voorhees.and tbe debate took the form of a colloauv be t ween Messrs. Hawley. Voorhees and Vance. Finally a vote was taken on Mr. Vance's amendment, and it was relected yeas lo nays 23. No propositions to amend were made un til paragraph 183 was reached, relating to needles for sewing, darning or knitting Mr. Vance moved to strike out the words "25 per cent, ad valorem." and to insert the words "free of duty." Rejected 20 to 83 The next amendment offered was by Mr, Vest to paragraph 190 as to quicksilver, by striking out 6 cents a pound and inserting 10 par cent, ad valorem. Rejected 18 to 23. Mr. Vance moved to amend paragraph 191 as to wood screws, by reducing tbe rate on screws "one-half inch and less in length" from 1 to 4 cent a pound, ! Re iected 18 to 22. The amendment next in order was of fered by Mr. Test, to amend paragraph 194 relating to type metal, by changing the rate from 12 cents per pound for lead con tained therein to 15 per cent, ad valorem, Rejected 19 to 21. - Mr. Vance moved to rpduca the- rate on cine in blocks or pigs from . If to M cefft per pouncu Rejected. - ' Mr. Harris moved to amend paragraph 198, relating to manufacturers' articles or wares' not specially enumerated, by adding a proviso that no article should pay a higher rate of duty than 90 per. cent, ai valorem. " Mr. Aldrich, in opposing the, amend ment, did not wish it tobe assumed that any article would pay more than ninety per cent, but he argued that the adoption of the proviso would lead to . inextricable confusion and would increase the cost of collection by making appraisers necessary. At the suggestion of Mr. Allison action on the amendment was deferred: and ached ule (D) relating to wood and wooden wares. and (E) relating to sugar, were passed over informally, witnjthe statement that the par agraphs so laid aside could not be taken up oerore tbe close of the bill was reached. This brought tbe consideration of the bill down to schedule (F) to tobacco, cigars etc , when it was laid asids, about three . pages of the bill having been actually disposed of to-day. ibe conference report on the Senate bill to regulate appointments in tbe Marine Hospital service of the United States was presented by Mr. Dolph, and agreed to. i netaenate proceeded to executive busi ness .and at 4:55 adjourned tili;il a. m. to morrow. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Springer, of Illinois, stated that at the meeting of tbe Committee on Terri tories this morning, it bad been determined that territorial bills would not be called up ror consideration until January id Mr. Buchanan, of New York Why this sudden cessation of activity ? Mr. apnneer It is tbe unanimous wish of the committee, there being no politics in it. Mr. Haves, of Iowa, from the Committee on Accounts, reported as privileged mat ter a bill authorizing the appointment of clerks to benatois and Representatives not chairmen of committees. On a point of order raised by Mr Holman, the bi'i was referred to the Committee of tbe Whole. and Mr. Hayes moved that the House go into committee for its consideration. Mr. Springer demanded the yeas and nays, regarding the vote as a test vote .on the bill. Tbe motion was defeated 90 to 106 - Tbe House then went into Committee of the Whole on the River and Harbor bill. Mr Blanchard's request that the first reading of the bill be dispensed with was objected to by Mr. Kerr, of Iowa. The bill having been read, Mr. Blanch ard said that there was no disposition on be part of members of the Committee on Rivers and Harbors to discuss tbe measure unless some member might desire in formation. , . . . Mr. Kerr, of Iowa, expressed a desire for information as to why so many appropria tions were made for the improvement of rivers and harbors which ho had never heard of before. Mr. Spinola told Mr Kerr that be could not pass the civil service examination, and Mr. Blanchard referred him to tbe reports of engineers for the information he de sired. Mr. Blanchard stated that -every item of the appropriation in the bill had been in the bill or last year. Tbe bill ap propriated in the aggregate $11,900,000. being a little less than one-third of the amount recommended by the chief of the engineers. Mr. Uram, of Texas, said bis objection to the bill was that it did not appropriate enough money to carry out the work of internal improvement. He made a long speech, condemning what he termed the dribale system of appropriations for public improvements. He said he wOuld at tbe proper time offer, as a substitute for the measure, practically the same bill which had passed at the first session of the pre sent Congress, although, personally, he would prefer to pass the bill appropriating exactly the sum estimated by the chief of engineers, Mr. Blanchard said that tbe gentleman from Texas occupied the unique position of opposing tbe River and Harbor bill be cause the aggregate amount carried was not large enough. It had previously been opposed because it had appropriated too large an amount. He sympathized with the gentleman from Texas in the position he had taken. He himself would like to see a larger amount appropriated every year than it was found practicable to ap propriate. The gentleman s theory was beautiful, but .impracticable.

Prominent Soatbernera Villi Presi dent Elect HarrUon Proposed For mation of n New Party Wbsi la to be Done wltb tbe Negro. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Indiasapolib. Dec. 19 Hon Thomas Seddon and his associates, comprising the committee or southerners from .Burning bum, Ala., who called upon General Har rison yesterday, were particular to impress upon the Press correspondents that their visit was non-political in the general accep tance of the term. Inquiry, however, into the causes and circumstances leading to their visit and the formulation ol the ad' dress they presented, to the President-elect, discloses the fact that beneath this indorse ment of tbe protection doctrine by the cap italists of Alabama lies what may prove to be a great political project. It is believed that the movement embraces a programme for tbe founding of a new political party in the Southern States, the leading spirits of which should be ihe business element especially tbe manufacturers. 8aid one of the c. mmittee: "We regard the solid South as a thing of the pas' ; it is gone forever. The election of General Harrison and tbe certainty of the admis sion of two or three new Republican States, strip tbe South of her former power in national politics. The break-up is upon us. We must look to tbe arrang ing of new lines, and in doing so we pro pose to make new alliances and to bring about a settlement of the perplexing race iefrue It is learned that the original secret call. issued at Birmingham about the 20th of November, and sent to about one hundred of the leading manufacturers, capitalists and business men of Alabama, has never been rublished. An examination of this call is of interest. It sets forth ihe ad vani ages to be secured by acquiescence in ihe verdict of tbe people for protection; it deprecates and rtbe's from a further con tinuation of tbe political supremacy in ibe South, of what it terms "Bourbon Rule; and. lastly, it outlines an ingenious plan for tbe creation of a new and independent Southern party, whose founders and fol lowers shall institute a political warfare against "Bourbon rule," and press that ele ment until it calls tbe negro to its aid to save it from political death. The new party will not antagonize the colored race or drive them rrom ns mem' bership. but it will be organized almost en tirely by white men, who expect no sup port to speak of from the negro at tbe out set. Protection and fair elections are to be the corner stones of the new party, and its; charter members are men of such un bounded wealth and influence that tbe movement assumes an important aspect. .
