LEASE OF THE A. N. C RAM . ROAD. The Atlantic & North Carolina railroad has been leased by the stock holders for a period of thirty years to a syndicate, subject, however, to the approval of the directors. No op position is anticipated, as the Gov ernor has expressed his willingness to let the private stockholders dispose of the property as they saw fit, hav ing due regard to the interests of the State. As h appoints a majority of the directors, no objection is antici pated to confirming the action of the stockholders. The Newbern Journal, in an edito rial on the subject of the lease, says: The proposition is a good one. and if the proper guarantees are made, should be accepted at once. It is, in substance, as follows: The corpora tion is to grant the use of their road. rolling stock, machine shops, etc., for thirty years. The Eastern North Carolina railroad company is to pay tor the nrsP ten years an annual rental of 136,000, lay three miles of steel rails and put iu 30.U0O cross ties annually, and. within four years, ex tend the road to b ayetteville. For the second ten years they are to pay an annual rental of $54,000, and for the third ten years an annual rental of $72,000. They put up as a forfeit ure for failing to build the road to Fayetteville $25,000, ai.d $50,000 to secure the company's property. Liet us see now what is in this scheme for the private stockholders. here is a floating debt against the company of about $240,000, bearing eight per cent interest. Oat of the $36,000 annual rental for the first ten years there win hav e to be paid the interest on this debt, which will be about $19,000 the first year, the taxes and expense of keeping up the cor poration, which will be about $6,000, leaving a balance of $11 000 the first year to go to the discharge of the principal. With the annual rental steadily and faithfully applied in this manner, the debt will be paid off in less than fifteen years, and the com pany will have an annual income of $54 000, less the expenses of the cor poration, which ought not to exceed b,00U. It then the States stock should be reduced, as it justiy ought to be, the company will be able to de clare a dividend of at least four per cent, and at the beginning of the third ten years they could declare a divi dend of six per cent. If then this lease should be accepted, and the annual rental faithfully applied, the county of Craven ill in fitteen years be receiving: about So.000 income trom her railroad property, ;nd in twenty years near $8,000; and Lenoir and Pamlico will also have handsome in comes from it. Besides all this, at the end of the ihirty years the road will have been extended through a country that will give it something to do, which is an important consideration, it is to ue hoped, therefore, that the directors will confirm this proposition; it is the best ever offered, and- that the lessees be permitted not only to run their road undisturbed, if they comply with the terms of the lease, but will receive the encouragement and sup- ort of every citizen in Eastern Caro ma. While we consider the bargain a good one for the counties and pri vate stockholders, we at the same time have good reasons to believe it to be a good one for the syndicate. Good for the private stockholders be cause it is under permanent manage ment, and can be used more advan tageously tor developing tho country 1 good for the lessees because the coun ts is growing, the ousmess or tne road increasing, and by extending its line they will make money, the thing that all enterprising men wish to do, When the road is extended to Fay etteville it will form connection with the Cape Fear & Yadkin Valley road, which is now in process of construc tion from Fayetteville to Danbury, in Stokes county, which will be com pleted before long, and will in the near future extend from Danbury up into Virginia, and form connection with the Western system of roads at some point in Virginia or Tennessee, thus giving a through rail line through this midland tier of counties to the seaboard. As the Journal remarks, it will be a good thing for the syndicate, the State and the private stockholders. Speaker Carlisle's Committees. Washington, December 18.

Sun' Views on the Land Question that are Nw and Vel Somewhat Old, With SugKHtion Hs In How to Kerne -dy Some ol the Evils oi the Times, Archimedes said he could "move the world, if he were given a fulcrum outside of it to rest his Wer on." Th fulcrum on which each citizen of a free country should rest his lever for good actions should be his la nd. This homestead, his God-given right in his native soil, is necessary to give him his full worth and dignity as a man. With the exception of the Le vites (the professional classes) every man in the Hebrew Republic was re quired, by law, to be a land owner. The mechanics and other artizans whose main living depended on arts outside of agriculture, were still land owners. The merchants, whose for tunes were built up by commerce and whose ships whitened the seas, were still land owners. The manufacturers and their em ployees were alike land owners. How sad it is to watch, in the great cties, the dismissal of the hands at even tide, from the great centres of indus try, the weary, toil-worn women, the listless, sad looking men, and most pathetic of all, the pale-faced children, still retaining some of the smiles of playfulness of infancy. However well paid they may be, and however well treated they may be, we cannot divest ourselves of the painful idea that their lives ae not their own. They are driven by the sternest of task-masters, want, to their present employments. Their employer may be one of he most generous of philanthropists, and may endeavor to mitigate the hardships of their lot in every way in his pow er, but he can no more control the great laws of supply and demand than they can. A crisis comes, the employer fails and the "hands"' (pit ful name for immortal beings) are thrown out of employment. What then? Aye.they stare into each other's blank faces and ask again and again, what then ! Ask the question until you get a satisfactory answer, for at present there is no satisfactory an swer, lhe tales of hunger and naked ness ana cold and want ot every kind which hands deprived of employment pour into any ear which is willing to listen, proves that there is some fear ful mistake in our political economy. But suppose that each of these hands had a home of his own. howev er humble, in some distant rural neighborhood, to which he could re tire and "dig a living out of the ground" when everything else failed, how much more cheerlul things would look. He could live, like the Irish peasant, until better times brought about more paying employ ment. Under this state of things, the whole family would rarely leave the roof tree. The father and some of the grown girls would go to factory work, but the mother, the grand mother and a portion, at least, of the children, would probably remain at home. This homestead would serve as a buffer" to prevent the hardest falls the shock of coming down to what the Calif ornians call "bed rock." Some persons may need an explana tion of the word "buffer. " It is a cushion or apparatus with strong springs to deaden the buff or concus sion between a moving body and one on which it strikes, as at ihe ends of a railway carnage. For the want of this buffer, men are driven to despair. Hence the terrible amount of insanity and suicide in the great industrial centres. Carefully kept statistics in Europe show that suicides in the dense and immoral cities reach thirty times the average i rural districts .' But the poor men of the rural district when everything else fails, flock to the cities. There they find their ulti mate ruin, like moths flying into a candle. Even when not reduced to direct want, there is a feeling of feverish anxiety which keeps the ma jority of men back from anything like true happiness. "There is a ceaseless struggle for betterment of condition. Homilists call it the haste to get rich. Observ ers know that it is merely the dread of debt and dependence ; the ten dency manifest throughout the uni verse, of every particle of matter to place i'self in a state of rest." No prudent political economist urges sudden changes. To attempt to equalize the ownership of land at a single stroke ot legislation, would be disastrous in the extreme. But it could be done gradually and by one of the simplest and justest ot lawe It is this; "Make the landed home stead unalienable." Let its siae be determined by the number of acrs in the State divided by the number of voters. And let every land owner, owning this amoun', or less, be de prived of all power to sell it. Say the homestead consists of one or two hundred acres. Any land owner owning more than t-iis, may be allow ed to sell -he surplus But all farms. of this size and under, he should have no right to sell. The Hebrew laws required each tribe tQ keep within its own limits This should be a warning to modern nations, to keeo separate races in dirrerent sec tions. Give the ngro, the Indian, and the Chinaman as fair and fertile lands as the continent affords, but let them be distiuct from those of the white races. I would take no privilege from the colored man which he possesses at present. But I would confer upon the white man a privilege which he does not possess at present : I would give htm an unalienable lanaea estate. In Arizona or New Mexico let the colored man, too, have an unalien able homestead, but not in any sec tion already settled by the white man. This system would mako lancl ownership a ereat blessinc to all classes. The rich men of the present day are not often large land owners. They find more profitable fields of enterprise in commerce ana manu factures. But for these rich men to own a family homestead, descending trom lather to son, lor 'all time, would have the happiest moral innu ence in making" worthy, dignified and patriotic citizens. . The Hebrew Jaw allowed town lots to change hands without restraint they could be bought and sold. That the same law prevailed under the new Testament dispensation we infer from the fact that the lands sold by toe early hristians in order to i give the money to the church were small lots. The Greek word chorion meant a "little . soot." When larzer bodies of land are referred to, the word used is chora. "Look unto your fields (chora) for they are white to the harvest." In one instance, re corded in Acts, a Levite sold land not designated as chorion, and thnrafrirA J probably a farm; but this, too, is en DNl SDAY DFCFMBFR tirely in accordance with the Hebrew law, for the Levites were forbidden to own farming land. His quickened sense of duty under the influence of the christian dispensation probably made him anxious to free himself of an unlawful possession. And this leads us to some considera tion of the office of the Lovit'j. THE LEVITE. "When God promised the priests, th" Levites. shall never want a man to stand before Him. in all future time," (Jer. 33 IS) we wonder what meaning we are to attach to it. I have come to think that it means that the office, if not the name of the Levite. will continue as long as the present world endures. Every civilized nation has a class of men who profess themselves to be the guardians of society Thev are called the professional classes and are divided into three or four ranks: the guardians of the soul, the guar dians of ,he physical body, the guardians of the mind and the guar dians of the rights and fortunes of the people. In other words, the min ister, the teacher, the physician and the lawyer. Before the advent of t hrist the office of these social guar dians vsas hereditary, and was trans mitted from father "o son from the time of Moses, until the Mosaic dis pensation was superseded some two thousand years later. And the revenues of the nation were mainly devoted to the support of these guardians of society. The revenues were very lare. The peo ple supported their Levites very handsomely . Those who attended to the spiritual interests of the people were called "priests" or princes, but the name "Levite" covered every man of this class. The priests re ceived larger salaries than the ordi nary Levites. because the Levites themselves paid the priests a tenth of their incomes. Never was so matchlessly beauti ful a system invented. Every He bre had access to the highest educa tion for his children. The courts of justice were open to all, "without money and without price." Medical attention was also free. The whole nation was g( verned by "vigilance committees," if I may so express it, elected by the people them selves, and receiving no pay. These committees formed themselves into courts of justice, graduated from the court often citizens up t which rep resented ten thousand citizens and more. As Moses expi esses it, (em bracing the w iole system of perfect national government in a nut-shell) "rulers of tens, rulers of fiities, rulers of hundreds and rulers of thousands." The early English system was modeled after the Hebrew, and not withs anding the corruptions, which n the course of ages, have crept in and weakened it, it has made the English the treest and yet the most conservative people in the world. Each tithing consisting ol ten citizens elected their own foreman, and ten of these foremen with two rulers ot fifty (12 men) formed a permanent jury. presided over by the ruler ot one hundred. In English law a "tithing and a "town" had the same significa tion. "Town" in modern times has come to mean quite a diferent thing 13ut the lcal court is still called the "town meeting." In revolutionary tunes it was called a committee meeting" the colonics were covered with a political net work ot commit tees, whose thorough organization gave the Americans the strength to resist the British invasion. John Fiske says truly, "This town meeting principle is the foundation ot all tree government. The town meeting is the primordial cell out of which the principle ot political lite has been originally woven among all races and nations." Just in proportion as this principle prevails, so do free institutions pre vail. To this principle the Anglo Saxons owe their success as colonists. France owned a vast extent of Amer ican soil, stretching west of the Alle ghany range, from the Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. But the home gov ernment ruled the French colonies. with kindly meant but life-destroy ing vigilance, which prevented their fre: and natural growth. They were not allowed to govern themselves and gradually died out. Henry Thomas Buckle, one of the great philosophic thinkers of the age, (au thor of History of Civilization etc ) says that government is and always has been, mischievous when it aims at any object beyond the preserva tion ot public order and the preven tion of crime. Charles O Conner, the well-known lawyer, enunciates at length the same idea in the New York World. The nation is filled with useless nay, worse than useless office holders, who drain the pub lic treasury of the revenues which ought to support the Levites the professional classes, and thus be re turned to the people in beneficent showers ot tree education, free jus tice and tree medical and spiritual at tention.

The largest of the boys climbed into a seat by the side of "his mother, while the other three ranged themselves on their knees on the seat opposite, and looked out of the windows. The mother passed up a nickel to the box. The driver looked at it, and then put his head in at the door, and said, as he pointed to the oldest boy : "Another nickel, av ye plaze, mum." The woman smiled and nodded her head toward a card on the side of the car that announced that children over four years must pay fi 11 fare, but others could ride free with their parents or guardians. "Phwat! Do yez mane to say that you've had foive of'em, and the oldest, is only five years old?" said the driver.
