Editor Review: In your issue ol the 5th msL. an article headed "Out Great Need Industrial Enterprises" &c, &c, brings to my mind what I attempted to do four years ago. It was this: For 50 or a 100 or more tax payers to join together in a paper writ ing and state, to the. public that an agreement is entered into which should bo legally binding and agreeing to pay over two and a half per cent upon all of their assessed taxable property in the City of Wilmington to any live manufacturing company or .corpora tion that should invest $100,000 permanently. If it shouid amount to $1,000,000, two and a half per cent, would amount to $25,000. Would not Ithat have a tendency to call attention to those em harking in me manuiactur ing interests to bring them to Wilming ton, and would we not be benefited many - fold over and above what we would give as a bonus to secure vari ouslmanufactures in our town, and would it not have a sure result of in creasing the present rapid prosperity of our city? F. W, F. As will be seen the above is in re sponse to an article which appeared in our local columns on the 5th inst., in the subject indicated, and the ideas of our correspondent are well worthy of consideration. Capital is boutid to seek the most promising and most inviting localities for investment. It will no leave home nnless it sees more than a possible'chance of being benefited by the change. There is nothiDgmore cautious and timid, as a general rule, than capital.; It has been generally secured through patieut toil, little by little, and those who a"e its possessors are not prone to risk it in any doubtful or hazardous enterprise. Capital is one of the great needs of Wilmington to put it securely on the road to success and every legitimate means snouia De usea to se cure such an increase of capital from tae ouisioe worm as win make our prosperity assured and permanent The plan proposed, by ouc correspondent is a good one, and it can be carried " into execution -with but little risk to those immediately concerned and it . would.1 undoubtedly have the effect of bringing capital from abroad to help, swell :oar prcccst Trcslth. t . . ITott b tb3 tine to giva Cniili'j VTcm ForginsrAlieacL I We find the following items of rail road news, interesting to the people of this city, in the Clinton Caucasian of this week's issue : ! '"V'"' Capt. R. P. Paddison was here yes terday. He is pushing the work on his contract to build and equip 15 miles of Hie v omt Oasweil Railroad, beginning at Point Caswell. He is uradinc half a rnile, a ;wcek and - proposes to continue luc work to completion, lie informed us that there is on toot a proposition to have the charter of the- road extended from Clinton to Raleifih There would be no trouble to get couyict labor to do the grading on easy terms, and there is no reason why the project cannot be carried to a speedy consummation. Such a road would be a big bonanza to bampson and- to the exliro section through which it would pass. It would aiso auu greaiiy to ine commercial in terests ot the City ot Oaks and the City by the Sea, as well as afford quick and easy transit from the one to, the other. It seems to be pretty well determined that the Wilmington extension of Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley road Will fol low, the direct rout. The survey has aireaay oeen made, and it will cross Black river at Point CaswelU Thus. with this extension completed the Pt. C. road built to Raleigh, and the branch road built from Clinton to Warsaw, our entire people would have railroad fac ilities unsurpassed by those of any sec tion of the State. These roads can all bo built. Then why not?
