River Pilot-.
General Ransom returned on Wednes
day night from his inspection of Trent
river. He made the trip from Trenton
on the Cutler, entirely by night, and
thus demonstrated the comparatively
good condition of the channel -at this
tl... a. If the trip, down stream, can be
safely made on a dark night, it is pret
ty fair evidence of the great improve
ment alroa ly made on Trent river, i
General Ransom compliments Capt,
Ike Brown, the pilot, on his handling of

"Tennyson! Tennyson!" said the

Graded School Notes. ;
This evening the Trustees- of New
Berne Academy hold a special business
meeting in place of the regular meeting
in January. One object of the meeting,
we suppose, is to get ready a bill for
Legislative action, to provide for per
manent support of the school by taxa
tion. The bill ought to be drawn with
great care, and should have, if possible,
the unanimous endorsement of the Trus
tees before sending to Raleigh. A vote
on the question of taxation is always a
very delicate subject to handle; and for
that reason we hope the discussion on
this bill will be had and settled before
sending it to the ' Legislature. The
Trustees of New Berne Academy very
fully represent both the wealth and in
telligence of New Berne, and if their
unanimous support can be had, there
will be no trouble in getting the bill
adopted by the people.
And the Journal would further sug
gest that this bill should be prepared at
once, and introduced in the General
Assembly very early in January.
There is no need in holding back till
the very last days of the session and
run the risk of losing by some chance
And, in addition, the sooner the bill is
passed by the General Assembly, the
sooner can we commence making prep
arations for the erection ; of additional
buildings, It is understood generally
in the city that, as soon as the question
of the permanent support of the school
by taxation is secured, then our citizens
propose to erect by private subscription
a magnificent building on the Academy
Green adjoining the old building. ;
So let the necessary legislation be Re
cured quickly, let the vote . be had by
the people, and then let the new build
ings go up as soon as possible. , ?
Editors Journal: I see in the Tar
boro Southerner &, letter from our
distinguished fellow citizen Judge
Howard, written for the ostensible pur
pose of declining to- be a candidate for
Senatorial honors before the Legislature
at the approaching Bession. '
Had the Judge stopped at that point
no exception could be taken at the mat
ter by any one, but as he did not, the
friends of Senator Ransom may well
Question -the grounds upon which he
opposes the re-election of that gentle
man. They have an equal right with
Judge , H6vrard to, examine his record
and see whether he has misrepresented
the State or not. ' -
Upon the question of River and Har
bor appropriations it seems unfair to
charge him with misrepresenting , the
State when it is well known that
through the appropriations obtained by
1.1 O J . XL rti... a .2 '
wt) oeiimur iur una ouue, great hit
provement in her Rivers and Harbors
have been already effected and still
gre er are now in progress. So -con'
elusive are the evidences of these inv
provements, that many persons origi
naiiy opposed to the- measure, ' now
frankly confess; a change' of opinion
and acknowledge a visible and valuable
improvement in . the navigation : of
streams upon which the funds have
been expended.
As to tlie Grant retirement vote
question can lr, fJrly raised amon
Democrats. The Senator voted to re"
tire General Grant, for- services as a
soldier, upon tlie retired list ef tho
army, without reference to his deport
ment as President; while, if I am not
mistaken, Senator Bayard, the ablest
Democrat now living, representing the
only State that nfiw was Repiiblican,
introduced a bill to. pension President
Grant with all his presidential sins upon
his stalwart shoulders. But what were
the particular Presidential misdemean
ors which should have prevented Sena
tor Ransom from voting to retire him
as a soldier r W hy he assembled the
army around Washington to guard the
fraudulent counting of electoral votes
or the counting of fraudulent electoral
votes, which ever it was, in 1876.
There has beeu iu the course of the
last quarter-ceniury three assemblages
of troops about, the Capitol under cir
cumstances somewhat repugnant to the
ideas of the American citizen. . The first
of these was at the inauguration of
President Lincoln, when Mr. Buchanan,
Simon Pure Democrat, had the army
there to guard against any outbreak
that might occur, and the reports of the
day said that the Hero of Lundy's Laue
was unusually busy and quite conspic
uous on the occasion. The second was
the military drama of the' execution of
Mrs.Surratt at which time General Scott
being dead' his namesake,, General
Winfield S. Hancock, figured as the
master of ceremonies, under, the direc
tion of North Carolina's second and last
President. The third and most import
ant one was when President ': Grant
called out a few thousand armed men
under, good military , discipline and
worthy officers, to exchange greetings
with the one hundred thousand un
armed Democrats who had been invited
to be present on that august occasion.
Whether the soldiers were to keep the
Democrats from hurting themselves or
hurting somebody "else is to this day
unknown. '
The fact that the clamor was for Con
gress to make the most audacious at
tacks upon States Rights, that ever was
heard of in time of profound peace-that
of directing which way the electoral
vote of a State should be counted, after
it had been sent up in conformity to the
law of the State and the acts of Congress
in such cases made and provided, would
indicate that it was as much for the
former as the latter.
The vote confirming the appointment
of an Associate Justice on the Supreme
Court bench ought not to be governed
by partv affiliations and I humbly trust
such votes may ' become less frequent,
Then a retrospective view of the events
narated discovers President Buchanan
passing away honored as a true Demo
crat, notwithstanding the concentration
of troops ai the inaugural of his sue
cessor. ' ' ' ' '
General Hancock, who took an active
part at the second display of military
about the Capital was made the honorod
standard bearer of Democracy in 1880.
And TJ. S. Grant placed upon there
tired list of the army, while the fraud
ulent job in Louisiana in which Stanly
Matlhews figuted has been condoned by
the National Convention of the Demo
cratic party when it refused to nomi
nate Mr. Tilden for the campaign so
lately ended. "! t ;
If Mr. Tilden was elected , President
in 1876 and cheated out of it by Repub
licans; who cheated him out of the op
portunity to obtain it in 1880?
Then Democrats should be slow to
condemn the votes of Senator Ransom
when they remember that the whole
party voted for Horace Greely for Presi
dent on a Republican platform, only ten
years ago. ,' ,
If Senator Ransom is not to be re
turned; in the name of justice, and in
behalf of our future prosperity and pro
gress, let mere go some other : reason
assigned than those contained in the
letter under consideration . i . '.

, . . , ' Litigation.
(Chatham Kecord.)
The Midland Company have refused
to surrender possession of the Atlantic
& North Carolina Railroad, which was
leased to them in June, 1881, and which
lease has been declared forfeited. Pro
tracted litigation will be the result,
which will benefit nobody but the law
yers engaged therein. Since the Mid
land Qompany have had possession of
the road the towns and the country
alpng its line have- greatly prospered,
ftp their management of it has been
much more beneficial to the public than
it was when under the control of its
former managers. , Then it was run as
a political machine, as is alleged and
generally believed, in tlie interests of a
favored, class, but under the Midland
management . it has been run on strict
business principles. In the language of
the level-heailoii editor of the New
Berne Journal, we would ask, "What
sense is there in taking the road from
lessees who were making more money
