Some are debating tbe question whether disfranchisement or a well drawn election law will beet serve the desired purpose. There are even persons who profess a belief that quite soon there may be a national law for disfran chisement, bui the others declare this is purely visionary. All the newspapers In the Stale have now declared themselves on tho question of separate cars or compartments for whites and negroes. Not one tnkes any posill n against it.

Iu the House, Representative Snlrei offered a resolutlou for the Investigation of tbe war, which was senl to tbe Mill tarv Committee-, to die. The House parsed the Anli-Scalplng bill.

Canal Bill Cd Op far Coiiuiilerafefl. I Morgan's Opiaioa of the Opposition to the Bill. Says He Will Push It The Pretl dent's Tour South. "Wasiiinotok, Dec. 13 The Nicara gua Canal BUT, which now has tbe right of way la the Senate as the "an&nished basinet", and" wlitch it tbe most Impor tant matter, outside of the regular appro prialion bills, that is likely to come bofore Congress at the present session, was called up today by Senator Morgan, who Is its author and who Is in charge or the bill. Mr. Morgan says the bill will bo kept before the Senate until it is passed and he thinks It will receive at least three fourths of the votos in the Senate. He sys: "The tru state of the sentlmeut of the United States is such that If there were no other way to build Ibis Canal than to go there and to take the country in order to build il, lliey would demand of Congress that that should be done. But, happily, no such reason is- necessary. Nothing needs lo be done but for tho Congress of the United States to observe a straight-forward, honorable uptight course, acting upon rights already cslablishod, upon concessions thai have been made, and proceed to declare what ourwlll is in regard to this matter." Senator Morgan thus characterized tho opposition: "These g-nilciiien who aro proposing a post ponement by Congress until they can have a definite plan arecd upon, under stand perfectly well lust if that post ponemeiit Is to cjnliuue until their 'bjections are dinposed of, no canal will ever be built. That is precisely what thoy want." It is regarded as certain that the Mor gan Canal hill will bo passed by the Sena'c, ahh nigh numerous amendments ina have lo be voted down first, hul then the certainly ends. Of course, il could be mule a party measure and oe pisJ by tbe majority of tho House as such, should the party lenders so desire, but Its friends, members of all parties, would not like to see that policy adopted. Although Senator Morgan says he will push the bill to a vote at the earliest possible moment, Ihe general impression is that the vote will not bo taken until aftor the report of Ihe United States Commission, headed by Xdmlral Walker, has been submitted to Congress. Heceul reports from Admiral Dewey and General Otis have about removed the last bit of apprehension on the pan of the Administration that Agulnnldo and li i s followers mig'it have to be whipped into subjection when we act ready to take enliro charge of the Philippines. Although noarly the entire member, ship of the House was In Washington when tbe vote on tho anti-scalplng bill, which passed the House, was taken, considerably more than a hundred of litem dodged It, by just happening not to lie on the floor. Everything la arranged for the South ern trip of the President and his Cabi net. Tbe paity will leave Washington tomorrow on a special train and will re main away one weelt. It hardly seems possible now that the treaty of Peace wilh Spain, signed Sat urday night, can be senl to the Senate before ihe adjournment for the Christ mas reoess, as II will be necessary for tbe original documeut to be brought to Washington first.

Tbe Panama was towed down the river by two local lugB ; with siren whistles, and these, with the Panama's whistle, made the air lively for j tho entire distance along Savannah's five ; miles of wharves. Goneral Lee stood upon the hurricane deck, surrounded by his staff officers, hats in hand, while probably 10,000 peo ple who lined the wharves bade him farewell and God Bpeed. ! The Panama carried only tho officers of headquarters of camp, with the clerks, orderlies, animals and transportation used by tho.-e officer. She will go di rect to Mariano, near which place Ihe corps will be camped. llefore leaving General Lee gave somo emphatic Instructions with regard to transports. The work of loading them baa proceeded loo slowly lo suit him. He eipecicd the Mobile, with the One Hundred, and Sixty-first Indiana and the balnnce of the Secoud Illinois, and the .Missouri, with 2,"0 hospital nurses and stewards, to sail tomorrow. "I presume thai we will eutor Havana and establish headquarters there about January lirst," said General Lee today. "1 understand lhal the city will be min ed over at that lime, In the meantime my headquarters will be nt Mariano. The corps will be moved to Cuba just as rapidly as possible, and I expect it nil llierc by January 1. I will no", reira'n cn the Panama, but will go right ashore upon my arrival." General Leo will have abjul 21,00) men under his command iu Cuba by January 1. He has urged upon the War Department the hasty transportation of his men. All tho transports aent hero have becu approved by him with the exception of the Michigan, w hich took the Second Ill inois to Cuba.

He contracted a slight cold in Now York, which did not assume an nUmiing stage until Iho early part of last week. On Tuesday night General Garcia, in company wilh the other members of the commission, attended a dinner given in bis honor by General Mile, and il was Ihe exposure that night which led to It i a Illness. During the twelve hours more prece l log bis death Goneral Garcia was uncon scious most of the time. At Intervals he recognized one or more of those about blm.

It Is the belief here thai this puts a quietus on Griggs' movement. The United Confederate Veterans' As sociation will publish a history of the Confederacy. In this will be the history of North Carolina troops in that service. Prof. D. H. Hill, son of the general of that name, has prepared the North Caro lina part of the hiBiory. The insane asylum here makes a fine showing in its report for the past two years. This shows a death rate of only H per cent. The percentage of cures is 05. Governor Russell will use whatever in fluence he may have r.t Washington to induce the War Department to allow the State's claim of 23,500 for amount expended on the voluntesrs in camp here. In the Federal Court here J. P. lloddie late postmaster at Nashville, was con victed of stealing u dozen or more let ters. He will bo given a year in the peni tentiary here.
