"COME AND LET US REASON
TOGETHER."
Fayetteville, N. C. March 7.
The interest of tho town of Fayetteville
demands that something should be done
to relieve the heavily bni-dened tax-payers
from the heavy taxes which are so dis
tressingly affecting them, and which stand
in their pathway to prosperity. Come,
then, and let us reason together, and see
if something cannot-be suggested to bring
alout this most desirable change in -our
affairs,and place us once again on the
high road to better times. To accomplish
this good, we must approach the subject
with tUe gravity its importance demands.
Political considerations, local and persoual
prejudices, must be made to stand aside,
and the one grand and paramount object
dispassionately discussed,
what can he done to restore
PROSPERITY ? m
OUR
111 the first place, it
is conceded by
every one that we must get clear of tho
heavy railroad tax, which is so grievous
and which stands at the very threshold of
our advancement. Aud the question very
naturally is asked, "How can that be
done?" I -will suggest one way, and one
which, I think, can be accomplislred.
Tlje State of North Carolina owns nearly
the whole of the Western North Carolina
Railroad. It was purchased by the State
to secure the large interest held by the
State, and which she was about to lose.
Its beginning point is Salisbury, and it
terminates at the Tennessee State line.
The State, with convict labor, is now gra
ding' the unfinished portion of the road
bed, and preparing for the iron, ten miles
of which has been recently purchased for
use beyond the mountains. We hope the
lay is not far distant when this important
St(te work will be completed. Then will
be opened out the rich, fertile valleys and
mountain slopes of our western counties,
giving to tlfe people an easy and direct
coinmuuioiitiou with the rest of the State
and to our seaports on the Atlantic, This
Western Extension has beeu a favorite
movement with intelligent citizens of the
State for nearly forty years indeed, all
the early railroad projects from 1831) were
with a view to accomplish' this object;
towit: a connection of the head waters of
the Cape Fear nrer at FayelleriUe with the
far western countic of the lstaU by way oj
&dhnnj. As a proof of tlus look at the
proceedings of all the internal improve
ment conventions, at every point, where
soever held in the State, and to the char
ters granted by the legislature to carry
out this object,
"RiU," you ask;, "vvhat lias all this to do
with our present impoverished condition
How can that benefit us now ?" I'll tell
you : Let us carry out the oriyiml project
qfonrfuthcrsilvtt us work together, re
gardless of alt other considerations, and
and get the State of North Carolina (o as
siime our town and comity indebtedness in
curred for the Western Railroad, and for
so doing let us surrender our interest, on
the condition thatthe State will extend the
road to Sqlisbury, and then connect and
consolidate it with that great State work.
The Western North Carolina Road,
so that the State may own an entire liue
of railroad running nearly cent rally through
the State from the head waters of the
Cape Fear to its utmost western limits.
By doing this we may lose,' perhaps, our
individual stock in the Western Railroad;
but see-what we sliall gain in return : we
will be rid of that heavy burden of taxes, of
which we so jastly complain; our property
then will be of some value, the waste
places will be rebuilt; we shall see some
of the lost trade rolling back to its former
and natural market; we will be able to
devote our energies to other channels; our
cotton mills and other manufactories can
receive help; other railroads of importance
can be encouraged, and we will soon see
everything about ns assuming a better and
more prosperous condition,
Consider this proposition, fellow-citi-
zens, and, if there is any merit in it, pray,
then, let ns work together to accomplish
it.
I hope to continue thU subject, and in
the meantime 1 subscribe myself,
- D. G. MacRea.
TO THE COLORED PEOPLE.
The following piece, -clipped from
a
newspaper tells a tale :
"Carrying Coals to Newcastle.
Charleston, S.C., March, 9. Three hun
dred and iifty colored men,wonien and
childred, from various parts of the coun-
try, are qnartered m this city awaiting
the arrival of the Azor, a sailiug ship, to
take them to Liberia, under the auspices of
the Liberian Exodus Association. I here is
accommodation on the ship for only about
250 of these emisrrants. - Oulv those will
be taken who hold stock iu the Liberian
joint steamship company aud have means
to support themselves for six months af
ter their arrival without assistance. Tho
Azor will, on her return, take another
ship-load, which she M ill continue to do
until the thousands who are anxious to
emigrate ale accommodated."
Men are going Tound tho country tell
ing the colored people that provision is
already made for them when they get
there, which a falsehood, as the above
shows. I want to say to tho colored peo
ple to stay where they arc. Y'ou can do
better here than anywhere else. I speak
as a colored man to colored men. Study
your own interests and learn to think for
yourselves. It is time for yon to quit lis
tening to every humbug adventure, and
to quit being led by these so-called leaders,
who only lead you into mischief. We've
now got a good Governor, and a good
President, and all there is for the colored
man is to-go to work. Too many of you
hold up the corners of the st reets, looking
for an easier way to make a living, aud
blame the government for it. No man can
make an honest living in Liberia or any
where else without he works for it. This
Libera scheme is all a humbug and de
lusion to get the poor colored man's mon
ey. I expect I'll be attached by some of
my colored brethren on this, but I'm will
ing to meet them.
WESLEY RUTLER.
MEMORIAL,
At tho annual meeting of tlie Rowan
County Medical Society, in Dec, on motion
the President appointed Drs. Summerell,
Whitehead, Caldwell, Luckey and Shim
pock a committee to present a suitable
minute, at the meeting in March, 178, on
the, death of Dr. Alexander Long our
venerable fellow-member: and in the dis
charge of this duty would beg leave tore
port that Dr. Long was born in Rowan
County, Oct. 2&1, 178: was educated at
Chapel Hill ; studied Medicine with Dr.
Webb, of Hillsboro, N. C. ; graduated from
the University of Pennsylvania, nlmut
the year 1813; practiced a year or two iu
Salisbury, then moved to Charlotte in
Islo ; and in 1S1G changed his location to
Cluster, S. C. In both these places he
practiced his profession with dilligence
and success, aud with acceptability to the
pu,blic ; but in the urgent appeal of his
friends here, and entreaty of his father,
he was induced to return to his home in
Salisbury, where he rcmainded until his
death, which occurred Sept. 24th, 1877, at
his old homestead, surrounded by his
children and friends .aged years.
Dr. Long at an early period of his pro
fessional career manifested a special pref
erence for midwifery and though caiu
lelled to be a geueral pmctitiuuer, yet
lie devoted the best energies of UU life to
tho practice of his oiferj.
For a generation or more Dr. Long was
the only physician in all this section of
country who paid any attention to this
branch of practice, midwifovy leing left
almost entirely in tho hands of the vfrtico
men of the country.
He attained a skill and experience as
an accoucher, which secured him au ex-.
tensive practice, and made him sought
utter, tar and near in all difficult cases ot
labor, and even until a few years ago he
now aud then attended cases in his favor
ite branch of practice. As a physician
and citizen Dr. Long held the confidence
and esteem of this community ; as a hus
band, father and friend, he discharged all
his obligations with faithfulness ; and as a
christian and ruler in the house of God, his
conduct was exemplary. He was among
those who organized the Rowan County
Medical Seeiety, and was an honorary
member of the State Medical Society.
In closing this sketch we offer the fol
lowing resolution :
liesolred, That in the death of Dr. Alex
ander Long, this Society feel keenly the
loss it has sustained, and while Ve bow
with resignation to the will of God, we
bear tetimouy to his skill as a physician,
and to the many social virtues of tho de
ceased, and express our heartfelt sym
pathy with his bereaved children.

Irish and English in Trouble in Canada.
New York, March 18. A sjecial from

have engaged O'Donovan Ronsa to lecture
hero to-morrow applied to Archbishop
Lynch for the use of St. John's Hall,
Bond street, but his Grace through Father
McCann, his secretary, denounced Rossa
as a fraud and refused the hall. To-day
a letter from the Archbishop was read in
several of the Catholic churches condemn-
iug those who had engaged Rossa and
urging the jeople to keep away from the
lecture. St. Patrick's Hall in Market
Place has lieen secured. The mayor and
chief of police have made arrangements
for the presence of the entire force of 133
men iu case of a riot, and picked com
panies from Queenstown have been order
ed to hold themselves in readiness. The
Orange young Britons are very active,
aud if Rossa appears he will be attacked
beyond a doubt."
