Quincy Ellington and Burlington Railroad Incorporation Bill
A bill to incorporate the Quincy Ellington and Burlington Railroad Company was introduced in the Senate at Springfield yesterday. General Grant will commend himself to a large class, especially the religious, by his letter requesting there be no inauguration balk. The discussion of the Senate bill regulating railroad rates continued in the House at Springfield yesterday. A Radical caucus at Jefferson City nominated Mr. Wilcox of Rolla for State Printer on the sixth ballot. The House at Washington confirmed Mr. Anderson as Representative from the Ninth District of Missouri, rejecting Switzler. A delegation of Cuban revolutionists reportedly in Washington seek belligerent recognition. They should go to Queen Victoria, who may grant the same recognition she gave our Southern rebels. General Buchanan, replying to Gov. Warmoth, says his measures preserved the lives of the Governor and Republicans in the Legislature. This implies rebels plotted massacre. it would be instructive to hear Buchanan’s full testimony and why he remains popular with ex-rebels.
