the appeals to Congress to forward
this great work, emanating from State
Granges and boards of trade, from the
Pacific to the Atlantic, and are im?
pressed with the great and obvious
benefits which would result to tbis
whole nation by the speedy comple?
tion of tbis road; and as it is an enter?
prise too vast to depend alone for its
success upon private oapital, equal
justice to all sections of onr common
country requires the aid of the Na?

work, under proper restrictions and
safeguards, insuring tbo Government
against loss and the people against un?
just impositions and discrimination.
Yoar committee, therefore, submit the
following resolution:
That tbis National Grange earnestly
invites the attention of Congress to
the necessity of a speedy completion
of the Texas Paoifio Riilroad, and
asks of that body reasonable aid to the
company which has inaugurated this
grout national enterprise, under such

as the prudence and wisdom of Con?

Tub Spartanboro and Abbeville
Railroad.?Mr. A. O. Kaufman, in
conversation with us, yesterday, stated
that the uubtsoription by Union
County, S. O, of $150,000, to the
Spartanburg and Ashevillo Railroad,
was voted by a decided majority. The
interest and enthusiasm manifested by
the oldest, wealthiest and beat oitizeus
of the County, in the suocess of the
measure, is an earnest of their inten?
tion to help ou by every possible
moans witbiu their power, this great
enterprise?part of a ohain in the
grand highway?destined to connect
the commercial metropolis of South
Carolina, with tbe mighty West aud
Northwest. Old Union has, we think,
acted wisoly iu this mutter. Next
comes Spartanburg. This is her op?
portunity, aud i>he will seize it. Mr.
Ktufman also informs us that the
papers of Marion and Abbeville, d.
O, oil the lino of this road, are advo?
cating the measure. The Marion Star,
iu a strong editorial last week, takes
up this read as a State enterprise, ai?d
urges upon Lis editorial brethren in
South Carolina, frcsi one end of the
State to the other, to press ita claim*
constantly upon their readers uutil
they become induced to subscribe it,
aa a matter of self-interest. Such u
spirit, thoroughly infused into ,the
people, will carry the enterprise
through. ? Charlotte" Observer.
A Speoimbn Debate.?The telegra?
phic news from New Orleans constant?
ly refers to "lively" times in tho Kel?
logg Legislature. The following spe
oimeu of debute in that body proves
the truthfulness of tbp press telegram**:
"You lie, you nigger, you." "Dat's
not parliamentary, sah." "You's u
wiolatin' of tbe Constitution, sah."
The lust remark was made by a young
and handsome mulatto. He had no
sooner uttered it than a very black
man turned upon him, and exclaimed,
with an air of the utmost contempt,
"What you knows about the Constitu?
tion, you yellow moke, you? You
puBson of unsure parentage, yon shut
your fool mouf." This oaused a loud
laugh among the negro spectators, and
was greeted with suoh exolamations hb
"Golly, but dat nig is some," "He's
the man for talkin'," "You bet," and
"To be sure, honey."

The New York Herald makes this
rude reference to the leaders of the
dominent party in Congress: "Osten?
sibly a Republican oaacus considers
plans for protecting the negro in the
South; in reality it osnsiders how it
oau oirry the elections in the South?
ern States; and in those two points
are ull the policy of the dominant
party?how to carry the elections;
how to get the olfioes and distribute
plunder, and how to make the ma?
noeuvres contrived for this end seem
like movements taken to socuro the
rights of an oppressed people."
The following story which is going
tbe rounds may or may not be true:
"When the news of Carpontea's defeat
reached the White House, the Presi?
dent was engaged with a Republican
Senator io discussing the Louisiana
question. After reading the telegram
announcing the result, he jhanded it
over to the visitor with the inquiry:
'Where is this to stop?' The Senator
paused a moment, and then signifi?
cantly answered: 'That depends on
yon, Mr. President.'"

Thb Story of the Sane Lady in a

wife of a minister of that town, was
confined in tho Lunatic Asylum at Co?
lumbia, S. O. A petition was gotten
up in Shelby, and sent to Dr. Ensor,
the Superintendent of the Asylum,
asking for an investigation. Friends
of the lady pressed the matter, and vta
learn from a Shelby gentleman that
Bbe has been released, aod is now at
Ridgeway, S. C. It is said that the
lady was a little eccentric at times, but
it never occurred to any of her ac?
quaintances that she was insane. Her
husband, we are told, desired to be rid
of her, and took this method. We
conld hope that this story were not

doubt it.?Charlotte Observer.

which gives tho landlord a lien on
