"3T JAMES PORTER, CO j..mi Wa-v : Binds Kim Ovr' Court iu the Sum of Two li an -dred Dollars. Despite the ' warnings'; Zaljt given.tlieiie;ro ex-convicts,no doubt icttigatci ly their white radical bosses, iavo t-ien the registration oath, tl.ereby knowingly " and wil licgly cocamitting thrf detested and deter'able crime of perjury. Every ex-cc ;vtct in Buncombe is known, t-j- r one of them takes the i ax raUon oalh he may depend t j , i:. that he will be ptoeecutQfr '. to the fal"ftaiV4f theaw. Those that have already taken the oath and registered will be arrested' s soon as they can be found by the officers of the law, and their prelimi nary examination held before some commuting niaeistrate-ot the coun ty. The first arrest' made because of a violation of the registration laws, was effected yesterday, and James Porter, colored, was the unlucky wight who was scooped in. Porter is an ex-convict from Buncombe, and was sentenced to one years' im prisonment in the penitentiary -by Judge Avery at the November term of Superior court, in the year 1878, for larceny. Mr. Thos. A. Jones represented the State, Mr. P. A. Cuoimings appeared for the defense, and Justice C. B. Wy heard -the testimony in the case. Col. J. M. Israel, C. W. Malone, N. A. Rey nolda , and T. C, St r j 8 were the witnesses iutroduocd by the State, The records of theoourt was also intn-vlucf d as evidence The defence introduced no evidence at ai). Mr. Jones explained trie law on the Bubject in a very clear and forcible speech, and Mr. cummiugs labored hard to convince the J ustice that James Porter had no intention of committing perjury. The evi dence was clear that James had committed perjury,- and Justice Way bouud hiui over in the sum of two huudred dollars for his ap pearance at 'the next term of tae Inferior court, to answer to the charge of peijury. Up to the time this article was written none of Por ter's white republican brethren had offered to go on his . bond, thus again establishing their undying love (?) for their negro brother. As we said before, other negro ex- couvictB who have taken the regis tration oath will he arrested as soon as ituy - can.tJbe. J&yrtA. ... Watras-to have been sworn out against thetfi. and James Porter will have plentv of company in his hour of- trouble, brought about by the dirty schemes of the white radical leaders who profess to be such steadfast friends of the blessed, down-trodden colored man. , The negroes ot Buncombe have another lesson on the subject of white radical bypoc isy set be fore them in this matter. Will they profit by it? We shall see. Again, we'warn registrars of elec tion to be on their guard against al lowing ex-convicts, white or black, to register. Thirty-two marriage licenses were granted by Register o( Deeds Pat terson during the month of Octob er. Of this number seven were is sued to colored people. Wateh the ex-convicts. The white radical leaders here have gotten some of these poor devils to register in vio lation of law, and after one of them was arrested permitted him to go to jail rather than ge; on his bond fer his appearance. Rev. W. W. Bays, D. D, leaves this evening, together with his fam ily, for Knoxville, Tenn., where be was appointed by the recent con ference held in this city, as presid ing elder of that district.

' A sqrvey of the road and the work already completed was made by the CmzcN yesterday, in company with president Penniman, tioe-president Martin, superintendent ' Davidson, Co). :' W. K.; V. illiamson, Messrs. Thos. , A. Jonis, G. T. Rawls and others interested in ttt avntnn. an A m luerrouowuig iacxa;aua cgares were :ohtained '" The work was first besun dnrins May Jin accordance with the requirta ments oi tne charter, and was again begun on the 22nd day ot October. jjunng the past week only two days work could be done, owing to the rainy weather, but up to last nigut all the track had been laid and completed beyond the first curve, coming from the new railroad station. From here on about three thousand feet of track is in course of completion. A great deal of time has been taken up in grading and filling along the line; and from the first curve to Main street a number of bridges have been built, washes filled up and rock walls laid. All this took time and a considerable outlay of money ,and but for this the work would have been comoleted bv me coming Saturday night With good weather, however, the court house square will be reached in about three weeks, and the entire line be completed. The material ot the substructure consists of ties and stringers of tho very best oak that could be obtained in Western Carolina. The ties are seven feet in length, and are laid four feet from centers, much nearer than they are usually placed in street railways. The stringers are twenty leet in length and are 4x6 in size. The ties are fastened to the stringers by three different sizes of cast iron knees, viz.: inside. outside and at the joints of tl stringers. The joints of -the rails are protected against sinking or wearing away of stringers, by wroughuiron joint plates, fourteen inches in length. The straight rails are of steel, and manufactured by the Pennsylvania bieel Works, and known as thirty-pound s ctfon. center-bearing rail. The grooved rait corves, also of steel, anef made by the same company, are known ms sixty-pound sectionrail, and have been bended to different -radii bv the company to meet the require ments of the line. The straight rail is all bended here, by means of a powerful machine, known as the Brown raiUoender, A- thit road will rua by electricity, and as it is abso u'ely necessary when running to I nave a penecuy continuous ground conductor, the ends of the rails are connected together by a copper , .i .? ,,w..t. ikonj lease. band, each end of which is securely riveted into the corresponding end. The switches are made by Whar ton & Co., of Philadelphia, and are automatic in action, so that cars will pass each other on the turnouts, without any actien en the part ot the drivers of the cars . The route so fif laid out, is from the new pas senger depot along Southside avenue to Main street, and thence up to court house square. From near the passenger depot, the track will next be laid down to the freight depot on the Western N rth Caro lina road. The rest of the route has null Vk 'JCKU lUlU UUW lUUS , . ... . . , I . 1 - I .... I An 'I'ama . .. now on tne grounas enugn material i to hnild three and a ouarter miles , :-- - 1 I OI track.

The above . is simply a description of the grrund work of the system. which is only a small part oft n electrical street . railway and des criptions of the different branches of this enterprise will be furnish ed our readers as . fast as the work thereon is finished. .t - The assurance is thus given that the street railway is a reality: se far so good.

On the other hand the granting oi valuable and exclusive franchise, is no trifle, and soph cession of right to others implies at least a reserved right to expression of opinions, We welcome the portion of the road we are now getting.
