IpilIMjl— Associate Justice Conoer, of Mon tana, who lia« been suspended by the President on charges of drunkenness and gambling, is a brother of Senator Conger, of Michican. time when Georgia and the South stood most in need of tlio counsels and | the presenre of tbiir best men, he wai ready lo desert them, and to abandon his principles for personal gain. It will be safer for the Democracy and for the State to put in the governor’s chair a man whose political career is entirely without spot or blemish. Work will soon be resumed on the Hudson River Tunnel between Jersey City and New York. One million dol- Gordon resigned his seat in the Senate GORI OWB ASVJBATIOSS. The Ex-Senator from Georgia, Having Be come Rich by Speculation, Likely to Be come a Senator from Florida—B is Rail road History in Brief. [Special to the Oonricr-Jcv,rnal. Jacksonville, Fla., March 22.—It will be remembered that Gen. John B. lars have already been exp ndod on it, and it will take three millions more to complete the work. Judge Jackson, of Louisville, Ky., does not believe in shutting out intelli gence from the jury box by excluding men wbo read the newspapers and form opinions. He recently decided that the fact that a juror has road newspaper accounts of a crime are not on that ground chargeable with bias. This is common sense. If the fact of reading a newspaper's story of a crime is to disqualify a man from serving as a juror on the trial of the criminal, we shall soon have juries composed wholly of men too ignorant to comprehend even the simplest questions submitted to them. Augusta Chronicle: Lcland Stan- ford has left his $1,000,000 house in San Francisco without a tenfmt or pur chaser. Gath says he did so because he W’as lonesome. lie was in the habit of meeting with men like him self, rich and engaged in large con structive and business enterprises, and he looked around and they were all gone. Ralston was drowned, Mills was in New York, Huntington was in New York and Washington, one of the Crockers was dead, so Stanford had nobody to talk to as formerly, and wherever ho look on that coast he found hostility, personal and political, to himself. lie is a man of considera ble brains and gravity of character, and probably with a sincere desire to be well esteemed by the people, who once elected him Governor. He final ly became blue and started for New York, where he now is a resident. Ilis career shows how poorly men make the exchange of universal good opinion and popular respect for unnecessary wealth and overloaded riches. The Hon. John L. Ward says that where wc have one Vanderbilt China has a score, and where we boast of a hundred millionaires China has a thou sand. The United States can brag of Its immense Western farms, but they Tiaoienaas. ’me ears rrancisco Jinit says a million or a million and a half of acres often constitute a single estate in the hands of one owner. There are many such estates in Mexico, large enough to hide away many an Euro pean principality, large enough to awaken the envy of many a land pro prietor in the Pacific Coast States of the Union. These are to be found in many of tbe central and non hem States of Mexico. The famous Salado ranch, for example, contains over GOO square miles of land. It lies partly in the States of Nuevo Leon, Coahuila, Zacatecas and San Luis Potori, on the highway to Mexico, and on the line of the new railroads. It occupies the central table lands of Mexico at an average elevation of 1,000 feet. Chains of mountains traverse the estate, rich in mineral wealth. The boundaries of the estate extend more than 100 miles from north to south, and flourishing farms ami large mining towns are met at frequent intervals. in order to enter into railroad specu lations. At the time his act gave rise to much offleial scandal in Georgia, it being alleged that a bargain existed by which Gordon was paid to resign, so that Colquitt might appoint Joe Brown to the Senate so as to be rc-electcd Governor himself, and to further cer tain interests of the Louisville and Nashville syndicate, then manipulated by Newcomb. This was indignantly denied by Gordon and the other par ties interested, hut events progressed as indicated. Brown went to the Sen ate and achieved his life-long desire to reach the top of the ladder, and now has aspirations to the Vice-Presidcncy on a ticket with either Butler or Blaine. Colquitt secured another term in the Governor’s chair, and now goes to tlic Senate. From being poor three years ago, ho is now worth anywhere over $200,000, having been engaged in no business that the public was aware of. Gordon STRUCK OUT FOR WALL STREET. It was said at first that he was attor ney for Newcomb’s syndicate at a larire yearly salarv, with a five years’ en gagement. Later it was given out that he took a bonus and released the company from the five-year contract. At that time theie was projected a road from Atlanta wesl, known as the Georgia Western, Richmond and Dan ville Railroad. The people were an- talionizing the Louisville and Nash ville combi nation and were desirous of securing this charter. The New comb people made a flunk movement and quietly purchased it for a trifle, agreeing to complete the road to Co lumbus, Miss. Subsequent develop ments made it convenient for New comb to fulfill this contract. About this time it was announced with a flourish of trumpets that Louisville (nirties had sold the Georgia Western charter to General Gordon, and that the latter, backed by unlimited capi tal, would at once complete the road. General Gordon was TENDERED A BANQUET iii the Kimball House at Atlanta, at which the Georgia magnates were all present, and the party looked deep in the glass. Subsequent negotiations brought Gordon and the Uichrnoiul and Danville people together, the re sult of which was that the road was organized under (he name of the Geor gia Pacific. Work has so far pro gressed that trains now run between Atlanta and Anniston, a distance of 101 miles, and will be running to Columbus, Miss., over 406 miles, by next September. It is needless to sav don very rich, and that there is not a railroad movement in the South in which his influence is not beginning to be felt. A couple of weeks since he secured from the Florida railroad a charter for an important system in this Slate, and before long Gordon’s name will he as potent in that Stale as in the one he has left. Behind all Gordon’s successes in speculation there still lurks TELL TALE LETTER. J. Hendrix McLan** Thrown Light on th« Greenback Couapiracy—Willard’a Dirty Work. t Correepondevc-e of the Newt and Couritr.] Columbia, March 29.—The Anderson Intelligencer of to-day contains a let ter dated Graham’s Crossroads, Feb ruary 16th. from J. Hendrix McLano to W. W. Russell, of which the follow ing is the essential part: “1 wrote you a letter a few days ago in reference to our State committee meeting on the 27th, but as I have a little leisure time this morning I will write you again. Of course I know there is no use for me to urge the necessity of a full meeting of the com mittee, for you are a man of too much good practicable sense to think for a moment that if it was not of tlie great est necessity to have the meeting now, that Judge Willard and I would not insist on it. I have invited several others who arc prominent in Ihe work whose names have not been added to the committee (ill now to meet with ns in conference. Now I hope yon will write to as many of the State commit tee or any others who you wish to meet us on the 27th as you can con veniently do, to be sure to attend the meeting, as it is all-important to have as much good council as possible at that lime.” The mysterious Greenback meeting of February 27th, noted in the News and Courier, turns out to have been this. It is seen that Willard, while acting for the Government, insists upon the forwarding of the Greenback conspiracy on which the political per secutions are based. N. u. o. The gubernatorial canvass in Geor gia has assumed rather an exciting phase, owing to the candidacy of Col. Boynton, the temporary successor of Governor Siepfcims.. It seerns that in 1868 Col. Boynton wrote some letters to Governor Bullock, requesting an appointment as eireuit judge. In these letters he “congratulates” Bulioek “upon the restoration of Georgia to the Union”, and promises co-operation with his administration. The third letter contains this paragraph: I have demeaned niyse’f respectfully to all parlies, taking no decided public stand politically, because I am not, and do not propose to become, a politician. For these reasons I am not Inimical to either party, and therefore believe-that iu the main my appointment would k» acceptable to the bar and people of the circuit. If appointed I shall not certainly pursue a course po litically obnoxious to those of my friends who place me In position. This is regarded as the moat ohjec- lionablc part of Col. Boynton's appeal to Bullock. The Augusta Chronicle criticises it thus: Col. Boynton bowed too low to power in 1868. He was too persistent In his appli- cWon for judicial preferment at the hands of the Republican party. We cannot Im agine a position in which CoL Boynton would not demean himself respectfully to ail parties, but it was a great mistake on his part to write in 1868 that he was taking no decided public stand politically, and that he was not and did not propose to be come a politician. That was the time when Democrats should have taken a public stand. There was no occasion for Col. Boynton to have written that he would not pursue a course politically obnoxious to those of Lis friends who placed him in po sition. The preas of Georgia generally re gard Col. Boynton’s attitude in 1868 as disentitling him to the office at the Mhtds of the Democracy at this time, mid the indications are that ho will he defeated. And he ought to be. At A DESIRE FOR POLITICAL LIKE. He longs to re-enter the Senate and have a life term there. Politics in Georgia is a composite article, and but tew men can remain in office long, owing to the great rivalry of local leaders and jealousies of warring sec tions. This Gordon was not slow in perceiving. His visit, to Florida was a revelation. Here was a State far removed from the whirl of every clay life, with a population half rcfving and nomadic, having little desire for the outside world and knowing hut little of what was goinor on. They all knew Gordon as a dashing Confederate lead er. As such they would follow him to the end. Ho would appeal to them and liold them as no local leader could. It is well known that civilized people regard military prowess as the highest art of man. There was THE EXAMPLE OF JONES, who came to the State a few years ago a stranger, and who soon reached the Federal Senate, and is likelv to remain there as long as ho lives. Why should Gordon not become Jones’s colleague? Wilkinson Call has no great hold upon the people, and if the right hand of Lee, as Gordon likes to hear himself caliecK should oppose him, Mr. Call might as well save his election ex penses. Accordingly General Gordon is now no longer a citizen of Georgia, hut registers himself as “of Florida.” He is, without doubt, in the race for successor of Wilkinson Call, and will be elected. When he returns to life in Washington he will not be under the necessity of resigning because Ids sal ary is too sumll to support bun. General Gordon Denies the Story. Atlanta, Ga., March 28.—Ex-Sena- tor Gordon has addressed to the editors of various journals the following letter concerning a widely published para graph emanating from Jacksonville: Dear Sir: The letter of vour corres pondent dated Jacksonville, Florida, March 22. is filled with misrepresenta tions, hut would be unworthy of notice did it not involve the interest of others. The base and false insinuations con tained in a portion of his letter have been so thoroughly disproved and so signally rebuked by the people of Georgia that I need iiot refer to them. His statement that I am no longer a I citizen of Gcofgia is false. 1 have; never contemplated for one moment a change of residence. His statement i that I had registered at hotels as of Florida is false and wiftiout the sem blance of an excuse. His statement i that I am a candidate for Senator Call’s seat or the seat of anyone else is fiilsc. On the contrary, 1 am devoting my whole time as a private citizen to my personal interests and the development by legitimato means of the resources of this section. Respectfully yours, J. B. Gordon. THE STATE COLLEGES. The Tntcrcst* of the Mouth Carolina ColRpo and the Denominational Colleges Identi cal. [From the Anlerson Intelligencer.1 The Greenville News says that it predicted when the University of Soinh Carolina was established that it would occasion tl.c death of the denomina tional colleges in this State, and points to the precarious condition of Adger College as a verification of its predic tion. The unfortunate condition of Adger College does not arise from the competition of other col.eges, but from internal dissensions, which are fast verifying the truth of the scriptural adage that a house divided against itself cannot stand. Previous to these difficulties the college flourished, and we trust that ere long the breach may be healed, and this young college re stored to its just influence and nseful- n,*ss among the educational institutions of the State. There is, in our opinion, no antagonism between the Universi y and the denominational institutions of the State, but if there is to be any in jury inflicted by the South Carolina University upon them, it must come from the University becoming superior to these institutions. We like the denominational institutions. They are worthy of patronage and of success. We want to see all of them prosper, but if the State can establish a higher University which will do more for the education of the young men in South Carolina than these institutions can do. we are not willing to forego this ad vancement of edneation down here for the sake of helping our denominational colleges. If they do not progress with the civilization and educational ad vancement of this day, wc submit tbnKf' TO wlftifioia *tni8 progress Frim? her sons, in order to let the old col leges live. We believe the South Car olina University will stir np the de nominational colleges in greater ener gy and usefulness. It will compel them to raise their standards and give to their students a better education. Instead of injuring them we believe its establishment will eventuate in their permanent endowment, and raise them to the real dignity and inftnence of advanced colleges of this day. If so, it will be of inestimable benefit to the whole State if it gives no other advan tages to our people. • They Ran for the Doctor. Som’e people are always running for the doctor when the least tiling is the matter witli themselves or their children. Of course, the doctor likes this, for he gets well paid for it. But there are many occa sions when the judicious use of Perry Davis’s Pain Killer will do all the doc tor can. Mr. K. V. Miller of Syracuse, N.
