Best and associates— Syndicate Bill in dorsed by Gov. Jarvit and others. Comment: if a private citizen purchase a plantation for $lO,OOO, and make two payments of $2 000 eaob and then fail, what then? What does the law say? Does the original owner of the land re tarn him the (4,000 and take back the laud ? Not a bit of it. He retains the title in the land and pockets the (4 000. In other words, the purchaser loses all he las paid. UII -V. 1J -vJuii —• ' - ' —-n millions be made to a Northern Syndi cate on terms far more favorable than these that the law provides in cases of private sales? Why should a private oitizen, who may sell property, be better proteoted in bis interests and rights than a great Slate soiling out a great railroad line ? We are not lawyers, have oonsulied with none, and only ask the question ? It looks to a plain oummon sense eye that the terms for the sale of a railroad ought to be as stringent as those r equired in the sale of a house or a tract of land. Ought Best and Company, if they fsi' in their contract, to be let off as easily as the above section indicates? We pause for • reply. In seotion 13 wo read that Best and his associates, in oase of a failure on thsir part 'to observe and perform the ooutract made with them" by the State shall nevertheless be allowed a lien upon the road from Salwbuty to Paint Roek to the extent of their "actual and neces sary" outlay "in building, repsiring snd equipping said road," but the amoubt shall aot exceed $860,000. This the State, at we understand it, would become aetually indebted to said Best and bis associates for the sum of 1850,000. There is already a lien of $850,000 ; so here wuuld be an indebtedness of 81,700,- Ano - i>~» —j : their contraof. . This is oslled getting out of debt. This supposes that the $850,000 debt is worth that sum If ootv $550 000, the amount tluh will be $1,400,000. - U a sale is to ha made, let it be genuine-, Ist there he no sfterclsps If we are to have an extra session at a great cost to sell out Let the tale-be complete. We do not wish to hear some time hence that there has been so sale, but an additional debt ha* been created and that too alter the heavy .expense of the extra session. Bui if a sal* is made it on-hi to be no better terms for the Syndicate, as we have said above, than thoee which prevail in pr?ate transactions as between man and man. . ■ The Governor claims that the read from Salisbury to Paiot Hock will be worth fdlly $3 000 000 when completed. Mark that if you please, and now see what sort of a trader he is. He proposes to sell the road for considerably less thin i a aailiiea and a half—(sl 500,000)-J-or about 01,400,000. We say this because it ia evidently estimated in the biH of aate that {860,000 or less will eotnplste •he road. The f860,000 lien upon the mad is valued at £550,000, we believe 8o we find the Goeeraor anxious to sell i property which he says will be worth $8,000,000 when completed, and it Will irequire not more thaa $850,000 to ac oomplisb this, snd for how much ? The lien upon the road-oosts the State $550,- 000 really, as We nnderetand.

The Railroad Sale, The Greensboro Beacon, In speaking of tbe Beet's proposition : let. Mr. Best offers oo money for tbe State's interests, only bonds upon our own property—wbtoh really makes tba State stand her own scourity. These bonds may or may nqt be jrottb anything 2ud. Mr. Beet asks permission to | mortgage the entire road from Salisbury Asheville, (now 145 milea oomp'eted) a 815,000 per mile—whiob will give him over two milliona of doliara, with which to proeeeute his work. Of thia sum he proposes to pay the State 8550,000 in these new bonds. 3d. There ia only 45 miles of tbe Faint Rook branoh to build, and much of the gradipg and masonry done upon that. If Beet oan build by mortgaging' why oan't the State ? 4th. The State has to furnish 500 banda, board, clot be and guard tbem for three months (until Best oan get his bonds upon the market) —when he will pay the State (soiuo say in bonds—tbe bill tails to say how) —just sbout wbat it coats the State to keep them. What .I*, an ibiu oy row i ia oaau is we get our money baok—if boods— nothing to relieve the dear Deople of tbe i coat of supporting the convicts | sth. It is olaiujed that when those 45 miles are completed the whole road wil' pay a handsome per cent, upoo the money expended. Be this so or not, it oould eertainly be mortgaged for enough to iron it, and relieve the State of this expense. Mr. Dortch believes it oould be soi l for 83,000,000 in oaah. 6th. If the State will oomplete this road and if any of tbe great Ines lo the Paoific ahould come thia way—abe might sell for a sum in cash sufficient to pay tbe entire debt of the State after ita reduction under the new bond ing procese now going on so successfully 7th. If we are too poor to own any works of internal improvement, let all be aold—but Bold to the highest bidder for oaah or outatanding bonds—but never, for new boada to be iaaued upon the credit of the worka proposed to be .put upon the market—whiob ia tho Best proposition, if we understand U. These are a few ot the reaaona we have for oppoeing the aale of thia road- Reporter's Washington Letter. Washington D. C , March 3d 1880.

The great fear with some of the politi oians ot the State seems to be that if the Western rosd is not given away (they call it selling) that it will not be finished. We don't see why that is, there are but two political parties in tha State, both alike interested in its completion both pledged to 6nish it. Yesterday a few of the boys on Hills boro street msde a kite eight feet high and five wide, and sent it up in the camp ground in re%r of Msj. Tucker's.

Pause, Ponder and Peruse 11 The invention of that Superior and Com plete Sewing Machine (The Family tewing Machine), marks one ol the most important .pras in the history of mafij»ip*»*r, and when we consider its great usefulness and eitreinelf low price (S2S), it is very diflH'tilt to conceive of any invention for domestic use of more or even equal importance to families. It has great capacity for work; beautitui, smooth, and quiet movement, rapid execution, cer tainty and delightful ease of operation, that at once commends it abovt all others. The working parts are all steel, strong and dura ble, and will last a lilt time ; the bobbin* hold 100 yards of thread ; the stitch is the firmest of all the stitches made, neat and regu lar, and can be regulated in a moment to sew stitches from an inch in length on coarse ma terial dowo to the finest, so infinitesimal as to be hardly discernable with the naked eye, and with a rapidity rendering it impossible to connt them as fast as made: it lias more at tachments than any other, and it does to per fection all kinds of heavy, coarse, plain, fine, or fancy needle- >ork with ease, aud far labor than required od other machines. Ii needs no commendation, the rapid sales, in creasing demand, and voluntary eneomlums from the press, and the thousands of families who ÜBS them, amply testify to their un doubted worth as a standard and reliable household necessity, extending its popularity each day.
