A young fellow brought a horse to

| that his mother lived on the land of Dr.

jof means to buy j>rovisiou. Mr. Dal
, t in on enquiring learned that Dr. Prin
glc had no knowledge of the man, who
, was then taken into custody and com- j
' initted on suspicion The sama day the ,
| owner of the horse turned up in Mr.

jof the Westerly JSews, which ho pur

Passing a few days since through tho j
j nearest a dead town wo over saw a gentle
I man of tho place advised us to leave our
j back woods home, and come to his place,
j llow preoumptous, it may bo though
, j (presuming on our part) that he thought
jwc would give some life to his dead

i with that good friend, wo would sa,- that
j few places in the State have a brigh'er
i future (near future too) than Paubury,
! located in tho vary midst of tha finest
iron in tho State, with timber as good j
as in any other section, and water power j
; that would run every spindle in half a ,
j dozen States a d a climate as healthy as
probably any in tho world Now that |
I tho C. F. k. V. Railroad is couiple

i 1 spent a day or two iu Winston last;
Week, nod found tl ere, all its citizens— I
| with but few exceptions —to bo highly !
j elated with the prospect«of an extension
of the N- W. N. C. R. I!., to Wilkes-!
' born. They may see prospective benefits j
from this new improvement that one |
like myself cannot discover, where these |
cities aro to trap such great rewards!
from that improvement. It will make
' the Salem station a way station, only
in hour or two distant from Greoi.shoro,
' which is a railroad center, and the en
ergy displayed by the citizens and town
' authorities of tho "City of Flowers,"
! looking to a system of water works,
oletric lights, r-trect railways, &c., it
I will soon bo to the State of North Car
olina what uo'-v, Atlanta is to Georgia.
Does Winston-Salem wish to build up a
rival towu which already jlias so many
advantages over them ? It looks so to
one living in Stokes county.
What has made Winston-Salem such
a thriving place within the last decade ?
|lt is the thirty or more tobacco faeto
! ries, tao cotton and woolen mills, tho
I j flour and corn mills, and mauy other
1 J industries which draw trado from all
surrounding counties. Now what will
Witiiiton-Salem get by tapping Wilkcs
btro with a railroad ? Wilkes county
does not produce cotton and but little
wool lo supply tho cotton and woolen
mills nor much tobacco to supply tho
, many factories, and the chief trade from
. that county will be corn, wheat, irish
j potatoes, vegetables aud fruit which aro
•j the legitimate trade of tho mercbautsj
j and grocers. Why did not Winston-j
| Salem put their $60,000 in the road
; from Roanoke through Henry county,
Va., bv the vast iron deposits inSiokes,
I or to their towus to Mooresvillo ?
j Stokes eounty by her trado has con
j tributed more lhan any other county to
| build up Wiuston Saleiu, tho county of
i Forsyth not excepted, aud her citizens
are parttal lo these cities, and notwith
standing we have the iron horse puffing
through our southern border inviting
jour trade to oth.r towns, wo dislike
j very much to sec ihtin investing their
I I money in a suicidal scheme. I will
j show Winston-Salem more cogent rea
' sons in my neit, for the building a ratl
1, toad that will benefit instead injure
them. J. F. 11.
