Night before last Policeman Carter having received intelligence concern the horse stolen from Mr. R. M. White on the night of the 23rd, set out after and returned with it last night. He found the horse about a mile and a half this side of Thome's Ferry on the Catawba Riyer about 15 miles from the city. The thief was not captured but the officers have reason to hope that they may yet overtake him. Death ( an Old Lady. Miss Betsey Cannady, one of the old est inhabitants of Mecklenburg, died at her home a few miles from tne city yesterday. She was said to be about 97 years old, although she was so reti cent on the subject of her age that very few people really knew how old she was, and it is only by collateral circum stances that it is learned. She was a native of the county, and had many reminiscences of its early history which she was wont to relate with that pleasure which old people take in re calling the things of their youth. Among other historical recollections shftnsfidtn aav that she remembered when a school girl that a Mrs. Cook, who kept a tavern in a frame house where stands the building in which Mr J. Harty now has his china store, once called her and a companion into the house and powdered their faecs, re marking as she did so that they could now say they had been powdered from General Washington's powder box. The President had stopped at Mrs. Cook's on his Southern tour some years before, and had then probably left this souvenir. Around About.

'I OF THE STATE ; coaiaissioit eb Of-ifc, Western North Carsllna Etall-P"F--0iw Sill of Tins ) Claimed and Wsm Ob. talaed. . t rv;..-v ; , A rePrter of The Observer yester terday called on Governor Vance, hop ing to learn something of the action of thecommissioners of , the Western North Carolina road at their meeting in. Raleigh, Wednesday. The scribe found the Governor even more commu nicative on the affairs of that much discussed . corporation than . his most sanguine expectations had led him to hope for. The reporter began by asking what action, if any, the commissioners had taken. - "All that I can tell you for publica tion,'' he answered, is that we officially notified Governor Jarris, who is him self one of the commissioners, you know, that the assignees of the road were not coming up to the contract. We had refrained from doing this be fore, but this time we were all agreed." In what particulars do you accuse them of failing?" "The official notification brings four separate charges: "1st. In the language of the contract they had not 'prosecuted the work with diligence and energy.' "2nd. They had failed to keep a force on the Ducktown branch sufficient to complete the road to Pigeon river by the 1st of July, the time in which they were required to complete it by the contract. "3rd, They failed to reach Pigeon river and Paint Rock by the 1st of July. "4th. They are daily discriminating against North. Carolina towns and ci ties." "What is the effect of this notice?" "It has no intrinsic foree. The bill provides simply that the commission ers watch the progress of the work and report thereon to the Governor. It pro vides further that they shall make this notice before declaring a failure in complying with the contract, and even after such declaration the bill pro vides ninety days of grace, to the con tractors or their assignees before the Governor shall take steps on behalf of the State to have the contract legally annulled. You know, of course, that the commissioners in the capacity of commissioners have no power to act; they onlyjreport officially to the Gover nor." " "I notice that in your statement of the com mission trs' charges, you speak of the 1st of last July as the time on which their failure violates the limit allowed by the contract. I know that that was the original time within which the completion to Pigeon river and Paint Rock was required, but the pres ent controllers of the road claim, I un derstand, an extension of the time to the 15th of November. The commis sioners have the right to make such ex tension ; have they not done so ?" "True enough. They do claim that the commissioners made such exten sion. You have observed that we ig nored such claim. Such claim is in the first place founded on a fraud, and in the second place the present controllers have not eveucomplied with the condi tions annexed to the consent to the ex tension of time under which they claim. No lawyer who knows the circum stances will ever honestly give a favor able opinion as to the legal or present operation of the instrument by which the extension they claim was granted. I will give you the history of the whole thing.'p Governor Vanco took a fresh chew of tobacco while the reporter sharpened his pencil and looked anxiously at the diminishing thickness of hi3 note book. "In the latter part of last April," he resumed, "as I was passing through Greensboro on my way to Washington, Col. Andrews came to me and asked my consent to an extension of the time from the 1st of July. I declined to give my consent without consultation with the commissioners. I went on to Wash ington and in a few days received a letter from Gov. Jarvis desiring me to attend a meeting of the commissioners in Raleigh. I did so. The request of the present controllers for an extension of time was renewed at that meeting. We, the commissioners Gov. Jarvis, Dr. Worth and myself required that the application for the extension should be made in the name of the assignees of the Western North Carolina railroad, and not, as it was made, in the name of the Western North Carolina railroad company simply. We also agreed to consent only on the further condi tion that the terms of such extension should require the assignees to keep continually on the two lines a sufficient number of hands to complete the work within the extended time. There may possibly have been one or two other unimDortant conditions demanded, I Tint. rAnllAftr.! hut the Dresent con trollers did not comply with these con ditions and the extension was not granted. I returned, however, to Wash ington with the understanding between the two other commissioners and my self that they, a majority oi tne commis sioners. were to sign the grant of ex tension and to consider that I consent ed on the compliance by the present ontrollers with the demanded con ditions. At the expiration of two wPP.lrs there had been no re- renewed aDolication for the extension comolvini? with the conditions. I con r.l uded that the present controllers were procrastinating to gain time, and wrote fetters to Raleigh to Gov. Jarvis and Dr. Worth, withdrawing my consent to th eTtension under anY circumstances, and heceriner them not to act without me. Both letters reached Raleigh on the same day, and Gov the citv received his. Jarvis being in Mr. Bain, Ur, Worth s clerk, forwarded the letter to the Doctor to Asheboro, where he was at the time. From his action I presume Col. Andrews became aware ot the let ters and their purpott, for he sent a messenger on the same train which carried my letter to Dr. Worth. When the train reached High FointCol. An drews' messenger hired a horse and beat the. mail to Asheboro. He imme diately waited on Dr. Worth and ob tained his signature to an extension of tima tn tha'iKtrt nf "November. When rr Wnrrh ant mv letter vou can im- ated bv the signatures of two of the commissioners, one of them having been obtained in the fraudulent man ner described. We ignore that grant not only on the ground of fraud but also from the fact that even its condi tions have not been complied with, a sufficient number ofhands to complete the lines to the proposed points not having been put on the road within six weeks after the signing of the grant of extension, which they claim as being legal." rnft the original bill require that there shall be continually on the lines a emffiriant number of hands to insure the completion of the road within the fimS TiMthnnr. relvine on a large in crease of the force as the expiration of voa- that ia a condition, not only of the original bill, but also of the grant of the extension, which the present , i uh ai m as ODerative.
