THE MI.VKRS’ AND FARMERS’ JOURNAL. fTfjr ClIARWrTK: ^ WEDNFSiDAY, FEBKUARY 8, 1h:W. N0RT1I.C.U{0IJNA RAIL-ROAU. The Newbcrii Spectator of the a7th ult. hw the fullowin^ rcinarhs, on publishing the Act for in- corporating the Central Rail.Road Company.— We would gladly present the Act to our fctdur«, but for its eitreniu length. It is a subject which •h«uld engag* the attention of all oar citizenb. Central RaiURoad of Xorth-Carolina. —It is with feelings of no ordinary grati- fication, that we present to our readers, on the first page of this number, the Act pa.ssed for incorporating the Central Kaii-Itoad Company. We rejoice that amid the glot)in and apathy that prevail ainoog our citizens, and which for too long a time have forebo ded the ruin of all those pros[)ccts, which once we delighted to contemplate in imagi nation, that a spirit of enterprise has e.xhi- bited iHelf. Whatever may be the result of this attempt to raise the charactcr of our State,—for in this age of science and im provement, that government is deservedly held in reproach, that refuses to advance the prosperity of its people,-»—whatever may be the result, yet we hail even this endea vour to cast from our (’ommonwealth the tneritcd censure, with sincorc gladness of heart. It may not be in the powerof those who luive been awakened to a sense of the |;reat claims that are resting upon us, and the extensive interests that are now jeopar ded by neglect, to command success. 'I’he friends of improvement, and the advocates for public works, may not be able to eflJ'ct the object which they have in view. All the bigotry of prejudice and all the timidi ty of the doubter, may be brought to bear against a measure, with which, in our opin ion, IS now identified the truest advantage of a large portion of our inhabitants. Vet we rejoice that thsre arc some, who have jisen from their sla«p, and are now prepar ed to lend tlieir influence and talents to the aid of tlie greatest undertaking that the Legislature of North-Carolina has ever saiictiooed by a law. \Ve have spoken in the above paragraph, as if an uncertainty in relation to the issue of this attempt was to be cherished, liut Fhall there b; permitted a doub: as io its lAiccess? (.'an a [teople, who have IiteJ) been compelled to experience so painfully, and to 80 great a degree the adversities of life,—who are daily reminded, by the loud est complaints, of their unfortunate condition, —of a depressed commerce and a general desertion of our agricultural districts thro’ emigration,—still hold on to the miserable wretched fvstem it may Be called, that has already ruim^d so many, and is hourly beg garing it« thousands ? Shull our citizciis be indiU‘rent to social prosperity, to iState- pride, to titeir own individual gain? Kliall we continue looking, as we too long have looked, with unblushing or stupid calmness, to the stu[)endous works of other JStates, without an exertion to r*‘dcein our wa.'ited prospects? Are we to exhibit to the world, the example of a community that can com mand untold advantages by only common lalMurs; and yet will not only not bestow them, but in wilful, cruel j»;«ring will mock the attempt of others to ditfuse benefits a- BJoiig their fellow citizens! Shall a i{iiil- Road, which is to bear upon it, the prtnJuce of an extensive and rich region of country, be not advwated and encouraged by those who are to reap, and largely reap the fruits of Its establishment! Inactive and sluggish as we have hereto- fjre been—divided and distractcd as our o- piiiion upon other mutters may l>e—limited in means and resources as wc all are, yet this work can Ik* accomplished. A'w/ o>it greater can be accomplished. But it nev er will be commcnced if we sit down and pronounce it impossible—if ridicule of the plan itself is to b! the test of its ver}’ prac ticability. Jt is high time for our citizens to cast from them their habits of inactivity, and to call up their dormant energies; ti)r energies th**y have, and in full sutiiciency for any undertaking. Tiii;hk is wk.vi.tii fcxoi (ill TOO i.N TTiK J>TA rE, (ind more than enough to make a Hail-ltoud Iluad of twice the extent of that proiK>sed. We speak nn- der«taiuiingly when we say, that no other district of country is so lia(»|iily calculated for this kind of transportation, a.'^thut thro’ which the Rail-Koad is to pass. It may be built for half the co.st of thost* in .Mary land or I’ennsylvania: tor here iiature has invi ted iinprovenient, when she has forbidden all but perwjverancc and triumphing art and skill, in both tho.se States. ,Vnd with such advanlagi's—w iili the loudest appeals to desi’rt our present coldness and apathy, w ith the melancholy experience of the past, and w ith all the claims of patriotism, are we to be the victims of unfounded frars, and wilful prejudices, or what is wor.se, the opponents of a measure fraught w ith so much benefit, b\ pronouncing it a scheme that canuot suc ceed \ In our opinion, the time has arrived, when the only question to lie considered is, w lieth- • r, we shall leave tiie soil of our t'atliers, or call up every exertion to make its prmluc- tions yield their intrinsic value ! Disguise it as we may, tliesolemn truth is staring us in the liiee—from our deserted store housc.s, our silent w harves, and tromourcontnicted commerce, that this is the crisis of our late. AM call upou us to jiotc llic sign ofsliU I'ur- thcr distress; to mark the oineus of still greater woes coming ui>on us! And shall not something be done, and that s|M;edily, to avert them? Inhnhitants of I\eit'berny citizens of Cruvm County, you are most interested, are to bo the most benefitted by this inea.sure—and will you not engage w ith zeal and spirit in it ? VV ill you not sanction by your recommendations, and encourage by your means, this neces.^ary work ? W il! you nut aid, in raising a *'\Iom mk.\t which shall be the Gloky ofthe State in provid ing for yourselves and your children a sf)i HCK of sure prosperity and benefit \ All that is wanted is a resolution on your parts, that the measure shall succecd, and it will be completed ! iVfU) Paper.—\Ve have rccfived the I i>t No. of the 'FarmcrK' lii-porler,' pubiished in Salem, by John C.

Kditnrs: The tbllowing paragraphs arc extracted from ajii article in a former number of! tlic N. .\. Review ; and the bcntimcnts which they ■ contain are so just and so important, that we can- I not but wish they may have a [iluce in your col- i uinns: mean w hilc, wc take tiie liberty to intro- ] ducv them with such preliminary remarks as have been sugifcsted by their perusal. I To read ti'ill, will doubtless be aeknowledced as ' tlir most valuable and necessary p:irt of un educa tion. It often liapi>ens however, that amonff those I wJio have enjoyed many of the superior ailvanta. * gcs fjr intclleetual culture, and wl.o may be .said to be good proficients in most ofthe branches of a j practical education, there aru found many ordina- ry or iufuriur reailcrs. This evil may result from \;irious causes; but, in our opinion, il is olt> n tlie consequence of some of the errors disclosid in the following paragraphs. Childhood, above all others, is t!ie period for the formation of habits. And it depends in a great meature, upon tiie instruction of the iiunnylo dotermiiic what sliali bi^ the character of the hab. its which arc tlm.i formed. The nmark is not the true beccuae it is |>octical— “Just as the twig is bent the tree is inclined.” I^t the child ill the niirsi'ry be giv en over to tlie care, or ratlier, t> t!i« cuti litnnett of Oic xervants, aiid in addition to otiicr viees c)ually to be depre. catrd, he may fontract habits of crroneoiii articu-' lation fratn Mrhich neither time nor tuition uill ever afterwards be able to reicrm him. On the oUirr liand, let the faithful mothi r, Miisible ol iiei liigh resp'jiisiibihtU'S, seize tliis fivorable ftppjrlii-, nity to make her child familiar with tlie jiowcro of letters and tlii.ir ditllrenl sounds and 8i^'nificaUon« } under tlieir various coinbiiiutions; and she ean I sc«rc4!ly fail to awaki u in him llius tally a /.eat ' for learning, and to establish those habits which will insure success to the future labors of tin reading master; md become, (k rhapr, his guides tu cmin* nee amorg tlic laurelh d orators of his age. However tins may b-, tlie hours of ehihl-. hood, we believe, may juhlly l>c con^lde^ed thk OOI.MN I’KRioi). In no olhi.r po.sitioii of Iili-, will the oame amount of judicious, will-dirteted elfort accompli.sh so rmieh. .Vnd there are lew truths j coiietrniiig whicti, it is of so iiiueli practical im-1 [mrtunce that they should be well settled and gen- ) erally undei^louil. | !Ve.xt to the instructions of the nursery, as it resjieet.s the p Tnianency and irtijioitaiK r of their intlufnce, arf tliosc of the /rrirnary schuoU. .Vnd here we cannot well fnrlH'ar mentioiiinj; a eomiiion error which extensively prevails on this subject., it is, ' thui it I* of rriy liltir eonsrijitener irfmt is i the character nf the srhnul to which children nf an ' farltfage are sent.' 'I’his error is probably tound-1 cd in the facts, lliat children of this age arc oAeii ' despatclud to the school, more for thr purjiose ofj being out vf the tray' than tor the bi-nefit of| instruction—and that parents, for the most part, i arc very imp'rfrflly nw.ire of the evil which their children ari^ liable to e.\[«'ricnce from thi' forma- [ lion of h:id hahrts. Itut if the principal object of pan.'nts in sending their children to school, is, to avoid their noisy prattle and the wt lglit of care they would occasion at home, why not tavc the ex pense of their tuition by committing them to the servants and bending them into the street to build sand hea|>s and cuteh butti rilirs. 'i'hc truth is, sneli a motive is nntirtly mivvortliy to have any in- ihienre with |Hireiits in this niultcr; and whencv- er it does prevail, we ur)>e that it shouhl be ii/inic- diat( ly eorrettcd as one that endangers alike the interests of education and the welfare of our youth- It was a pnneipli', well understcwjd and iiiiitbriii- ly practised on, in the schools of ancirnt (Jree''!' ami Rome, that youth nnd evt n fkildhmd is the l>eriod when the tuundations of an education must | b« thoroughly laid, in order to seenrc symmetry, i beauty and any hi;;h degree of perfection in the snper«tnirture. i$ut it lia.s been letl fur modi.rn' times to demonKtrutf, ehii lly throngli the medium of infant schools, what vast fund.^ of useful inlbr- ■nation may be acquired and stowed in the mind , during their early years. And what is of still higher consequence, modern times have attached , more imi>ortnnee than was formerly d(me, to the i early Ibrmalion of correct moral prinei|>Ies, and | jiroper inti llectual and physical habits, aseonnee-, ted with an useful, respectable and happy life, and reasonable pnnipects Ibr a blissful imniertality.— The conne.xion between the fir,t principles and hiibilH inculcated U[)on the youthful mind, and the ' formation of a character in niatiirpr lilc corri.'s-1 ponding to them, has for years and centuries been ' coming forth into clearer liglit, until it is now a| matter of common notorii ty, and conccrning which there is almostan universal coneurrcnoeo*'opinion.; ill it no', tiica deeply ty bt icgrcttcd tJiat any rcl-: Thk Amkricax liKiTni.ics.—There are now eleven Republics on tho .American Con tinent, and at tlie head ol'every one of them is a military chieftain.” The follow ing, we believe, is a correct list of the presiding oHicers: es no importnncc to the character of the primary school, but I'rugally resei ves all his means to l>e e.\.

Notwithstanding tlie unexpeeti d length to which these thoughts have already Ixitn e.xtendcd, we cannot avoid remarking, in view of the principles here brought to view , the exeellenee of that plan of instruction which is extensively in o|>eration in some parts of our country and in Kuropi’, under the di nomination of ‘ lli;;h .Schools.’ 'I’o these lieniinuries, youth arc oileu inlrodueed immedi ately upon thi ir iiieding iinj instruction without ihe parental root'; and there they jeinain, if males, until thi y are transferred to the l.'ni'.ersity, or to their several [Mjsts of busines.-i; aud if females, un- Ihiited Slates . .’Mexico - .
