Ill elate Dr. Hawks, many years since, proposed and; marked out a system of ituill oads for North Carolina, beginning at Ilea u fort Harbor with a Grand Trunk road to run directlv to the vest lor Tennessee line, aiid toliave branch roads diverjiins: on tither side so as to penetrate every part ofUhe tate and concentrate our ship ping nt ono principal seaport from whie.h towpendiivet trade to other countries. Tiie late Uov. Morehead took up the idtm, hu4 xvitli.the 4iid of a few internal im provement 'iiieu, carried onf, to some ex tent, Dr. Hawks' plan, lint the X. C. Hailroad' was carrieil to" the 'difUjrent Court Houses from Goldaboro to Cliar lotte, making a long and winding road, and eostfng about a million dollars more than an air line road would have cost, besides iIkj keeping up of forty oy lilty miles of extra road, the cost ( running every train, say jiothing of the time lost iu doing so, will soon 'amount to a large sum. In as much as a great mistake was made in locating this road, at least so far as obtaining an air liue road from east to west, let us have one directly-from Beau fort, to Salisbury passing the Chatham Coal Fields,, which will opn up and de velop a. large section of our State, ini piove the, flipping . fruui Beaufort Harbor and give -ipiick, clieap and mre direct outlet ftirt!re millions of tons of freight that wilritopiii, down the Western N. C. liilioatfmhrtlve' fttf West and interim-- '.Ule lnntfts and wilj eventually be one pnuig of n- Soutliex"U.Truns-Coutinental Kofit fr. travel as well as freights. This and all other-internal - iniprHvementsof the State can Ik graded with convict la bor, if the convicts are, all put upon them; and if North Carolina caif ' not furnish them fast enough, South Carolina can and both -States may be paid inorethan the cost of convicting, feeding and clothing them, -in stocks in said . improvements. Some persons are in favor of re-establishing the whipping post for their benefit but a year's -labor iu a. , -chain-gang on a railroad Fs greater punishment thau the lash, and to whip and turn them loose they will steal again ; whilw to put them on some public work they are constrained tor trine, punished and made pay all costs of their conviction and curtail our State and county taxes. Let us have, .the roads instead. of the whippingpost. Jox. F..Foai:i. J V-- ' t f-1 H- - W ii; f i O'HARA vs. KITCHIN. . Ralela OUserver, 15th. .

With the exception of the harbor improve ments now going on at the mouth of the Cape Fear river, the,Westeni North Caroli na Kailroad is the most important project in the State. These two enterprise are inti mately connected. C-The .4eptU of water se- curea by tne liarbox improvements increases greatly the importance of Wilmington as a port of entry, . It is the most accessilde and nearest point on the Atlantic coast for the largest portion of the State. The shortest route to tide water and the markets of the world is through tikis city.for large sections of the country. In connection with this fact let us consider a" few points. . Every bale of cotton, buslel of wheat, or other product raised by the farmnr, reprc feents a certain value less cost of transporta tion to tide water. The cost conies directly oat of the producer. Consequently everv producer has an interest in being as near the markets of the wor.d as possible, because his products are. valuable to him in propor tion to those markets. It is to the interest of the people- not only to have cheap transportat ion but to buildup their own sea-port towns. This improves ineir nome interest;; ana lessens their taxes. As you increase facilities you increase busi ncss and at the sauie time lessen the cost of irausporuiuon. , . These were the ceniderations that invok ed t!e wisdqmof our State to commence the noble Cnterprisd of penetrating the mountains with-the Western N. CyKailroad, which is being done with the money of the people of North Carolina. This enterprise ias already, cost our State a vast amount of money, and will necessarily cost considera bly more to insure its completion. This cost, however, in our opinion, is money well spent, if the work is managed and operated in the interest of the people who own it, and will pay '.hem back ten told, (not iu the interest of dividends, as railroads do not pay that Avay)buf by giving facilities to our own citizens, lessening transportation charges, enhancing the value of real estate, building up our towns, and setting the ma chinery of commerce in motion. But if the present policy is pursued and continued of using the property of the peo ple of,our State for the benefit of the peo ple of adjoining Statas, to the exclusion of said owners (the people), then our citizens will lie defrauded. out -of the principal ben efits designed by the originators of this en terprise.. It is time North Carolina liad a sea-port town for North Carolinians, and if Wilniing t nils not the point designed by natureor that purpose, let us at once search the coast from the. Cape Fear to Old Currituck Inlet, and if a better hurlor is found let us adopt it at once and yive our aid and support to wards he building up of the same. We have hitherto underestimated the value of a sea-port town to a State. Would there be much left of -Maryland with Balti more left out Does not Baltimore pay as much taxes as the balance of the State? Can we hope to build up a sea-port town with nearly ail of our-railroads worked in the interest of ports of neighloring States ? How is it with-the Western North Carolina Railroad, the e rent u re and property of the citizens of this State i It is to-day, operat ed exclusively in the interest of the sea-ort towns of adjoining States. Not a pound of freight can be delivered or shipped from a station on the Western N. C. It. 11. through Wilmington, the sea-port of the State. How long will the people be content Jo suffer this wrong ? "The fact cannot be denied,' and it is a- burning shame. Every pound of freight must pay tribute to the ports of Virginia and South Carolina, and at higher rates. If this policy is to. ho continued, luive the c-it-izensuf North Carolina any interest in spend ing their uior.ey in this enterprise? We leave the question for our State officials to answer.

There is no man in the country whose careful deliverances on political issues are so widely read by all parties, and so gen erally accepted by the masses of his par tisan faith, as are those of Senator Blaine. He is tli oracle of vital Republicanism ; fhe Hariy Clay of the present ; the im personation of chivalrous leadership, and, taken n the Senate and ou the hustings. he is. the ablest of all wliotirviye to champion the lu-publu-an cause. His JUrief but pungent speech? deliver ed iu the Senate yerrteftlay is as ingenious as it is. nble, and as a party command, will b generally respected. It is falla cious iii ; some of its most important pre mises but where, it is so, fallacy is so ex quisitly interwoven with the truth, that it wilt be difficult for the .opposition to nchievccnspicnous success in answering it. The general principle of solidity of representation complained of iu the South, wuld apply to Mr. Blaine's own adopted New'Englaiid four-fifths of the time du ring the last score of years, and the, same complaint coulil Ihj made ligaiiist the West flut ing the present decade ; but we doubt whether the voice of the distin guished Senator could ever bo made to glow eloquent over the disfranchisement of the, entire Democracy of New Englaiid. But Seimtor Blaine predicates his:coni- plaint on specific violations of tho spirit or letter of the fundamental law in the South, aud when he makes out that part of his ease he can be justified iu his spe cial accusatious. :.-. The evident abseuce of candor on oue point takes a inost.nitaj link from the chain of Senator Blaine argument: It is not a proven fact that the colored voters of thejSouth as a rule, have been iu any way denied the right of snll'rage. Nor can it be assumed because Repnb Luan di.-tricts here and there elect Demo cratic Congressmen ; for both Republi can andllejuocratlc districts .North and South have done the same thing when large majorities had to be reversed. It must be established as exceptional from the political wrongs of all sections and all parties, a,nd as subversive of all gov ernment. ,To score' up the uumber of blacks in the South and demand an equal republican vote ; would be an ab surdity too palablc for Senator Blaine to accept, especially after the impressive lesson his own RepublicnujStHtegavQ hini a few months ago ; and yet when these rules nr-c amdicd to the jirsrmntut of the siKNt'rfT $e?drejp$, ti6 Jerll "akcleron the impressioued sentences, j . r ' - r f f I II . - 4 ' s There are twentp-five tobacco fp- tQries in FoJyth county.

Millie Ciikistixe, ..the two headed, four armed and four legged negro woman, born in Cojumbns county, N. C, after an eight years tour in, Europe ou exhibition, is again in this country, aud will be on exhibition iu Philadelphia for some time this winter. She is now 27 vears old. -1 Northern Paper in a llatje. The House passed to-day, to the gener al surprise, Mr. Reagan's foolish bill to regulate interstate commerce. It ought to be called a bill to block up the harbors of New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore, for if it should become a law, which fortunately is very unlikely, it would make the shipment of .grain, for Europe frotu the far .West asgood as im- possible. . Tho bill forbids sccinl rates on - any pretext whatever, or tor whatever, dis tance, under penalty of heavy Hues, and commands that freight shall be carried at precisely the same rates per mile at ull distances, long or short, aud that the rates. shall be posted up at the stations and must not be varied under thirty days after suc'i posting. It was . Tigoroca'y opposed, epeeially by tho New York members, Messrs. Potter aud . Hewitt ; but Mr. Reagau carried the day, the gran ge! spirit Wing still strong iu the House and its ignorance being still strouger. .Voir York Herald Special, 22. . Suit Aagainst the TT. X. C. Jt.K.

The suit was compromised yesterday the defendants agreeing to n judgment of $2,J)50, 1 8 and the csts. The plaintiff accepted the compruiu'se and the case is at au end. llminyton Sun. The Inter-State Commerce Bill. The very decided majority by which the House to-day passed the bill to regn late inter-State commerce- is significant. Jt is'not believed- that tho bill cmr pass the Senate at this time,: although' what is true of the House of Representatives as to change in: views of Federal ; control, caused by the circumstances of the case, in a measure applies also to the Senate Baltimore Snn, 12th.
