Accordingly, In a mo? ment of temporary insanity, she shot Critten? den, and now regretted only one thing-that .be was not present to defend her. She feels 'confident ol a final reprieve, because, as she says, her case .Is a political one, and when she ls tried again there will be a new Judge on the, bench. -The doubl? child, which died the other day in Boston, bas been subjected to. a post mor? tem examination. The fact wen developed* that the connection ol the viscera in the two bodies was an lnterjunctlon of the intestines, just above the colon, which organ was not du? plicated, but common to both children. Above ! tba colon all the organs were duplicated. -There was - but one uterus and one bladder, with two distinct ureters. The children were embalmed and placed in a casket containing alcohol. The Boston Medical Society offered a large sum for the preparation, but the parents, making a business mau?? of their bereave? ment, wanted $10,000, which they couldn't get, and sophey have carried the dual baby home to Ohio. -A letter from the Empress Eugenie to a friend Just made public, contains her defence against the attack o? General Trochu in the Assembly. She expresses herself as pained at seeing tbe general trying to exoyee himself by throwing the responsibility of his errors upon a woman. She acknowledges that grave errors were committed, and willingly bears ber share of their odium, put wishes, Trocho to be manly enough to tell the truth, at least. The general's explanations, as viewed by Eu genie, are not only weak, ungallant and inac? curate, but deceptive. He betrayed the Re? public as well as the Empire, according to the Empress, and had he the courage, force and ability, he might have been able to have pre? vented the revolution of the 4th of September, lt was this revolution which nullified thc in terventlou of loreign powers In the cause ol France. Had the Regency been maintained and Paris remained faithful to the Empire, in? tervention was sure to have followed the dis? aster at Sedan. Certain powers, she explains, were pledged to Intervention, but tue revolu? tion of September nullified every arrangement that bad been entered into; and she con? cludes by declaring, with woman-like earnest? ness: "General Trochu will not wash away with his discourses the Ineffaceable stain of j having lied to the Republic, as he had lied to the Empire." -The twenty-second ultimo was a memora? ble day for Amiens, marking as it did the rvacustlon of that town by the German fjQtpB jr oceapatlon,?and the entry of a dete ^ment: jf French' troops for the first time# in?nftny; months. The Prussians departed at aQ&r]y lour In the morning, and a r\reat crowd of ne Inhabitants, mostly 4'blo' a3e8i? assembled ?see them ofT. There w^ no <n8turbance whatever, but both pa'^ties were'evidently ;lad to get rid of one another-the Germans ?ellghted tobe homeward bound,and the French wishing them a sarcastic "bon voy? age." In a fev hours, the sound of a military band announced the welcome advent of a French rr-giment. This was the signal for the greatest excitement The balconies, windows and doorways were crowded with faces radi? ant with delight, and a lorest o? tri-color flags waved along the whole length of the street. Many were the congratulations and em bracings, and hand-shakings, and everything seemed to indicate an indefinitely extended era of good feeling, until the newly-arrived soldiers bethought themselves of the persons who were presumed to have harbored the Prussians, and characteristically commenced to hunt them down. However, they tired of this sport before' any blood was shed, and darkness settled down upon a happy city. The Blue Ridge Railroad-A One-sided sf Bargain. . The report of the committee appointed by the Taxpayers' Convention to examine the legislation in relation to the Blue Ridge Bailroad, printed in full yesterday, is a clear and conclusive explanation of the legal ques? tions connected with the State guarantee of the bonds of the road, and with the hypothe? cation o? the guaranteed bonds by the direc? tors of the company. The report, besides, makes it manifest- that, under a proposed new arrangement, or reorganization, the State may be held liable, in any event, for the endorsed bonds, but has no remedy if the bonds are absorbed without completing the road, and will have ne control over the road if, by means of the bonds, it be suc? cessfully completed. At this time only thirty-three miles of the Blue Ridge Railroad are in.running order, viz: the section from Anderson to Walhalla. This short stretch of road, with the costly work upon unfinished tunnels through the mountains, is all that can be shown in re? turn lor an actual outlay of about S2,500, OOO, of which amount the State of South Caro? lina and City of Charleston subscribed $2,300,000. Besides its stock suoscription, tbe State in 18G8 endorsed the bonds of the company to the amount of $4,000,000. Of these bonds, $3,000,000 were secured by a statutory lieu upon the property of the com? pany. The act ol 1868 also provided that these $3,000,000 of the bonds should not be negotiated at less than par. IQ spite of this distinct prohibition, $600,000 ol the bonds were hypothecated as security for a loan of $200,000. An act was passed in 1871 "to "promote the consolidation of the Greenville "and Columbia Railroad Company and the "Blue Ridge Bailroad Company." The fourth section of this net provides, "that in "view of the consolidation of the Greenville "and Columbia Bailroad Company and the "Blue Bidge Railroad Company," the issue of the bonds authorized by tbe act ol IF 68, the endorsement by the Comptroller-Gen? eral, and the execution of the mortgage by the Blue Bidge Company to Messrs. Gourdin, Clews and Cameron, are ratified and con? firmed, and the mortgage declared to be a lieo prior lo the statutory lien. This post? ponement Of the lien isjlOtJ^aWUd-by-tti? committee-Messrs. Porter and Conner, of 1 Charleston, and General James Chesuut, of Kershaw-as any disadvantage to the State, ! as the object of both the statu Lory lien and 1 and the mortgage is to secure the payment ' of the bonds, and the mortgage covers the entire four millions and all the property of. the com^-uy, wherever situated, while the statutory lien only extends to the property ' within the State, and only covers three mil- ' lions of the bonds. The sixth section of the act of 1871 repeals the provision contained in the act of 1S68, 1 that the bonds shall not be used at less than : par. But the committee are ol opinion, aud 1 their arguments appear to be unanswerable, that the repeal of the proviso that the bonds : shall not be negotiated at less than par, 1 takes effect only upon the consolidation of 1 the Greenville and Blue Bidge Roads, to promote which consolidation i3 declared, in its title, to be the object of the act of 1871. ' But this condition bas not been regarded by 1 the company, who have already bypotheca- i ted $3,100,000 of the guaranteed bonds. 1 This action, in the view of the committee, is ' a violation of law, and makes void the en- 1 dorsement of the State. The committee, I however, do not regard it practicable to resort : to legal process to prevent the illegal use of the endorsed bonds. They hold that "the ? "liability of the State on these bonds is a . "question tb be decided when payment of "the bonds is demanded from Ute State." 1 There is a worse trouble behind. A nego? tiation is said to be contemplated, or com? pleted, by which the stock in the Blue Bidge . Road, amounting to $3,300,000, held by the State and city, is to be transferred to a new association, which is to complete the road. This association pays '$50,000, in live annual instalments, if it completes the road. If un? successful, the# association pays nothing, - and the stock is returned. The four million bonds are given to the same concern, and may be negotiated at any pfice which is .' couven euL * The effect of 6ucb au arrange? ment is explained by the committee in these words: . "Ii,this arrangement is consummated, thc city and State wlil have pa -ted with all control over the enterprise; they can exercise no dis- ' cretlon as to who shall receive or disburse the ' funds, or how they Bhall be expended; they f cannot elect a director or be present at a meeting, or investigate the affairs of the com? pany, or even ask for inlormatlon. They will have turned over the road and its property and four millions of bonds to an unknown as? sociation. Who can tell whether the money will be spent on the road at all, and If it ls not, * where is the remedy ? Suppose lt ls not; then the State is liable on the bonds, and has as se- i curity on unfinished road. But suppose thal the money is honestly and judiciously expend? ed and the road-built. The coutrol of the road j is in the hands of an association who have j built it with State money. How will they con- , trot it f In the interest of the State or against : lt ? Who can tell ? On all these points, BO Im- ( portant, the agreement ls silent-no guarantee 1 of an; kind ls given. If controlled against the 1 State, we are powerless to prevent lt. The ? utter loss of four millions of dollars would be hard to bear; but the active employment of four millions of Slate mooey to divert trade and commerce from the State, would be still harder to be borne. It is certain that the as? sociation is to get the stock and four millions Bf dollars; everythlngelse ls uncertain.': The proposal ot the associ?t lo ii to the State in fact, ls: Give us your road and four, mullins of bonds? If w^succeed, th?profltfdisflb?onrs; If we fall, the loss shall be yours. "Such a plan seems to us fraught with ruin." We do not know who are the members of the association. Some of them are said to be gentlemen of integrity and position. Bat whoever or whatever they may be, the au? thorities are not justified in giving up the assets of the road, and tteir control over it, without ample security that the new associ? ation will use judiciously the means fur? nished by the State, and -will not, if com? pleted, work the road to the direct injury of this people. We have already Bpent hun? dreds ol thousands ?ldollars OD railroads which were to treble and. quadruple the business of the State, but whose advan? tages to us are as intangible as though the money had been laid out upon a rail? road to the moon. And now it is pro? posed that our railroad history have an opportunity of repeating itself. To this the people decidedly object, and we heartily concur in the recommendation of Messrs. Porter, Conner and Ches nut, which is that the Executive Committee of the Taxpayers' Convention and the citizens "memorialize "tbe State and city authorities not to part "with the stock and assets of the road, but "to retain them in their own hands-exer "cise the power which they possess, reform "the present administration, and place the "road in charge of those whose integrity and "ability will insure a judicious administra "rion of the finances of the company, and a "speedy completion of the road." This is the most that can, at present, be done; and, with the report of the committee before them, neither speculators nor money lenders can complain if they put their trust io a se? curity of little value. We desire to see the Blue Bidge Road completed with economy and celerity, but we confess that the new arrangement, exposed by the committee, is a one-sided bargain, wvicb, if completed in haste,' will certainly be repented of at leisure. ?j' - "? The Other Side-Statement of the Pur? chasers of the st ute Stock. We are requested" by one ol the associa? tion wbo recently purchased the State stock of the Blue LRidge Railroad lo state ? that the interest of the citizens of the State, united with the newly elected City Council of Charleston, will control the election of directors, next November, at the annual meeting of tbe stockholders, at which time the term of the present board ofalirectors will expire. Gentlemen, we are assured^ will then be elected who will press the road to completion. The bonds, it is urged, eau only be used to build the road and pay its debts ; sud under the new association and directors this will be vigorously pushed forward. Mr. Cameron was requested by President Harrison and Mr. Steers to act as tr ns iee, and accepted the trust to get the bonds out of the hands of tbe New York courts, where they had been enjoined, so that Mr. Steers might prosecute his contract in building tbe read. The Lu bi Hope of North Carolina. The defeat of the call for the Convention in North Carolina ls attributed by the Wil mlftgton Journal to apprehensions of Fed <M?u vioioeoo and nsurpatiorj^and.tD.iclarin?L fraud. The people were afraid of more "cannon and reconstruction," and many of them were deterred in this way from voting for the Convention. The Journal now de? mands Ibat Hi? Legislature "give the people "another fair oppoctunity to rid themselves "of the taxation ibat must otherwise beg "gar them;" and invites that body to pass the revenue law early in November. Then let this question be submitted to the people: "Convention and no tax," or "No Conven? tion and tax." ir the Convention is order? ed, the law to be inoperative ; otherwise the revenue must be collected. There is no es? caping the latter alternative, and with the tax gatherer looming in tbe distance, tbe people, at whatever risk, would adopt a new Constitution, and save themselves from Ue ruin with which they are threatened. -A correspondent in Newberry informs os that the Citizens' candidates for County Commissioners have defeated the Radicals n that county. We hope to receive similar .Mings from every local election held in the State. Upon the platform of intelligence, lonesty and equal rights, we should be able ja beat the enemy all the time.
