Our sym pathies are 'all Lilb the seaports of our own State, Wo are anxious that Wil mington should share largely in the up country trade, and . we believe her cnter prising rnerchauis and tradesmen will spare no efforts to command this trade.' , But the torn pet ii ion, from the very con dition of things, will be warm an active. There is no cheaper market in the whole country than Wilmington, especially for groceries, and farmer's yearly supplies. Look over the prices current of the di lifer ent towns, and you will, be convinced ol this. Her trado is rapidly increasing ; and her capacity for trade has, we believe, been underrated even among our ovv:i people. As soon as a communication with the interior shall have been effected Wilmington will cease, of course, to a great .extent to purchase her supplies such as hay, apples, butter, onior.s. lour, potatoes from the Northern and Eastern States, and will come to depend for these things upon our own farmers and plan tersj and the same remark will apply to Newberu and Beaufort when the Koad fromGoldsborough to the latter place shall have been constructed. But the people of the interior will trade where they can get most for their products and at the tarn time purchase their supplies at the cheapest rates due' allowance being made, of course, for the distance to be overcome and the charges for transporta tion. We take pleasure in givng a satisfac tory reply to our Correspondent in re- " latiorf to the Hateigh atulGaslon Koad. That Road can flow be "tried" and "trust ed." It is now in as good n condition as any Road in the Southern country, and well managed. We do not know what reduction in charges is contemplated , but the Road can certainly carry at cheaper rales than heretofore. So far as Raleigh is concerned we may say that up to this time business has beeu driven-to the top notcb- that is, we have - just as many retail stores as can be sus tained a number of shops, hut no whoie- sale houses. The people here are not i wanting in a spirit of enterprise. The place is rapidly improving. The sound of the saw and the hammer can be heard in all directions fair prices are paid for ' bands, and all who will work may. Our merchants nod business men in ust wake 4 up, how ever, and prepare for the future. They may be able to command a consid erable Up country trade ; but, in order to do so, wholesale business must Ins com menced, as we doubt not it will be when the Central Road shall have been com pie ted. Tbe bulk of travel from ihe interior t will doubtless take the Norfolk route ; and many of the merchants of this section and further West will, in all probability, avail themselves, in purchasing their dry goods and fancy articles, of the connexion be. tween that port ana iew xorK. we speak of facts as they aie and of strong probabilities, . ' The course of trade, however, is not so important, after all, as the existence of trado itself. We may not be able to di rect it as we could w ish, but we can make it and give to it an indefinite augmenta tion. ; Let us do ihis it will take care of itself thereafter ; and, though the stream may not run by every door and through "1tioirrwtlretownret--s4aeis. all interests, all localities and sections w ill he refreshed and fertilized by its influen ces and results.

This Honorable gen tleman, we perceive, has attracted consid erable .attention by his late address. In deed, we are a littte surprised that a man of bis calibre and character should be able to create as much notice, from time to time, as be has. done. This circum- stance alone, is calculated to inspire tbe . counted for, it is not material to enquire into at present.. It is. obvious, ...however,, that he hold hnwelf a head and shoulder above any other man in North Carolina; and sneers contemptuously t the Legis lature of the State, whom he charges with baying conspired against him in (he ar rangement of bis district. Small game for the pursuit of our grave legislators I But Mr. Clingman's inconsistency on this point is wrapped in a nutshell. It should be remembered the last Legisla ture was democratic, and that Mr. C. still ptetenda-toltawWfciAn also be remembered that this democratic Legislature added a thousand pore Whig votes to Mr. C.'s district, thereby making it overwhelmingly Whig. And yet strange to tell, he berates the Legislature for add ing this additional strength, and charges them with the purpose of defeating him. If he be a Whig, why complain? If a Democrat, bis district was decidedly .Whig before, and if be blame any body for making it at ronge,' iHrtiisTmenniF democrats those who run him for the U. S. Senate. As a democrat be had no right to expect the suffrage of a whig dis trict. As a Whig he bas no cause to com plain. And yet he is rampant. In this address he talks both ways, all ways so much so that it is impossible to tell whether he Is fish, flesh, or fowl. He Is a non descript in politics. To change the figure, h;s sails are set; and he invites tbe winds to fill them ; but like a boat, with out a rudder, his barque obeys every chance current. Now eddying in circles, now darting like a co'mmet. " Now brave ly contending, and now piteously creaking; but ever, ever tending to that most fatal malstrom, extreme selfishness. He is like a man we once knew wbo visited no house where he might not find a mirror to re flect the beauty of bis face ; before which, planting himself, all others in the room appeared, in the back ground.

Dlackmkb aho ubmilted a fw re mark and augeations for ihe coasklerau'on of ihe meeting with a view lo secure more prompt payments of stock and infusing greater energy in the prosecution ol ibe work ; and believing Kbat it would meet the views ol a priioa olJ ibe .tockbolder. and probably advance the in- teret ol tlie Company, made known his purpose lo resign bis office. 1 The ubjeci embraced in lbi report were duly considered by the Company.

Tbe question wa raised whether it wa com petent for ibis meeting lo fill the vacancy in the Board occasioned by ibe resignation oH the Pres ident. But by common consent il wm dismissed, a being the proper work of tbe' Directory tbi nol being lbs annual meeting of the Company. W. P.
