The editor of tho Dispatch emphatically
denies that he virtually or otherwise
refused to grant a favor aaked by us.
We as emphatically affirm that he did.
It is just possible that we may be mis
taken in his using in vain tbe name of
that dignitary who is said to live down
stsirs. His words were similsr to those
quoted by us perbapt thunder tnstesd of
devil wss used, which matters but little ;
and we think our memory on this point
is, good. Enough that his reply to our
request so bluffed us that we walked out
of his office without accepting the favor
when he a few moments after offered to
grant- it, which profer was made, how
ever, subsequent to our informing him
that wo had the manuscript of tbe
"proof for which we asked. But his
words snd the expression of bis eyes die
oloscd too plainly his reluctance for our
modosty to accept the offer. He has
since tried to smooth it over by hinting
that hia remark in answer to our request
was merely a vein of his humor, whioh
only cc nvinccs us that he has a serioua
way of joking.

iana friends have made some gentlemen
in that looslity believe that Mr. Sobofield
was ready to build the "road from Frank
ford to Louisiana.
Of course it would not bo proper to
make publio all that was said and done
this conference, but we cannot refrain
from telling our people that the prospects
of the Short Lino are more flattering than
we expected them to be at this early day.
While we aro retired, capitalists are try

bring into active business life all our
latent energies.
Our peoplo must throw off their leth
argy and act tne part ot men wno teel
that tboy constitute
body politic.
Those opposed to our enterprise have
told us we bavo not tho means to build
our road. In the face of these assertions
we have three propositions from men
very way lespoosible to take our secu
nties and build our road completo.
They do not oak a dollar until the cars
run over tbe road ; suoh a contract oan
be mado any day, but our directors being
all honorable men, and somewhat expen
need in such matters, are not ready to
make any contract until tho subject is
thoroughly canvassed. We say to the
publio, aot as one man, and our word tor

The Nation atates the case of Gen
Grant and his oonnection with the recent
outrage at New Orleans in the following
manner:
"Supposo Warmoth and his Repub'i
oans in New Orleans had been men of
nerve enough to attempt the enforcement
of their right to seats in tbe state lle-
publican Convention, and the state Dover
nor had been shot down by United States
trnnna surrounding thn convention, not in
obedience to the requisition of the Gov
ernor, but of the United States Marshal,
who wishes to be nominated s Governor,
and at the instance of tho United States
Collector, who wishes to be a Senator :
could the President iu that case have
withstood the demand for tbe punishment
of those officials by removal? He has
most certainly not aoted with sufficient
promptness for the country's good, or tbe
party s, or bis own, in tnisousines; ana
in cate hethould not act at all, hi offentt
mutt itircly be recollected against him,
That tbe means no bar-u, in no way re
lieves a maker of legal precedents against
the freedom of a oountry ; and nothing
better than that is said tor Gen. Grant,
while worse things are aaid in plenty, aud
not without oolor ot truth."
What a painful alternative this pro
sents for Grant I He is required oitber
to turn out of office his own bratber-in
law, who haa done nothing but employ
tho troops and Gatling guns of tho Uni
ted States to secure for Urant tbe dele
gates of Louisiana in the National Re
publican Convention, or else he must
himself tske upon his own shoulders tbe
responsibility of that outrage. Was a
more painful dilemma ever presented to a
man of delicate feelings? He must
either deny his own aotion and punish
bis own beloved brother in law for oar
rying out hia directions in wbioh ease
he is sure to lose tbe delegates 'from
Louisiana, and probably from all the
other oarpet bag States, in the Republi

must eonfess that he himself ordered tbe

opponents from voting against him ; and
The North Carolina Election.
The vote in North Caralina on the ques
tion of a convention wus tho hea'viest
over in that state ; it will foot up nearly
100,000. Tbo majority against conven
tion will be about 5.00083 counties
eivo a majority ot lu.Zdi ; but tbe re
maining seven will probably reduce this
one-hall. The honor ot having defeated
the proposition may bo claimed for the
president; tbe peoplo ot tbe state are
undoubtedly, in favor of a constitution,
but wbon Attorney uencral Akerman
threatened them with the federal army in
the event of their framing and adopting
one, many who tavered tbe proposition
voted against it, rather than involve
tbe state in trouble. One object in call
ing a convention was to effeot some ar
rancetpent with tho holders 'of the enor
mous state debt which'the Radioal rulers
had contracted, and which tbe revenues
of tbe state are said to be inadequate to
meet. It is not improbable that a por
tion of this debt will be repudiated. St.
