disparaging remn rk and 'criticism on

bigntoi y our people in ine! location
of any of their railroad lines. Our
country towns and market places were
mostly located by the phyical laws
that govern trade and ' direct! the or
dinary business of the country; It is
well to consult these circumstances
in every applicatfou of artificial means
I to material development, j j Almost
every great railroad route was out
lined bv nature when the entnueer
came to locate it. Thus, Mr.; Calhoun
is said to have predicted, as; far back
as fifty years ago, the 'present1 Atlanta
and Charlotte Railroad along the pre
cise route it occupies, because, as he
said, it was the old buffalo trail, north
and south, the instincts of these wild
animals of the primitive forests fort
running the intelligence "of man, and
fixing the guide mark to his cbnimer
cial interests. -
It i-vtherefore, very deferentially
suggested) at this time of general re
vival ofinterest in internal improye
meuts, that the peoplt of ou State,
Ofcyery-ection, in prtSjectfrig their
'railroad lines, Vcoiisu It localities and
establisfied towus and points of busi
ness iivt the, selection of; Lroutlcs.
.Throughout the Piedmont andi;Nbrth
west sections, which the Obseirer has
ijeen stuTIying of late with ; reference
to theirrailroad facilities and 't con
nections,, there are established towns
and trad rdgi places that it may ie wjse
to include, even at thea'dditfoial Ex
pense of longer and less direct routes
tluin bypureuing straightpr', lines,
avoid the towns, trusting to the build
ing up and development of neV jilaces."

AN INIQUITOUS SYSTEM.
It is givh out that, after Congress
shall have reassembled, Senator Coke
of Texas, wilt move for a change in
the system of tloing business by Uni
ts I Stat 8 District Ai o.neys in the
South. The bill which he will intro
duce proposes' to abolish the present
ve sybtenij, and substitute instead
thereof a regular scale of salaries. Mr.
Coke s;lys and he is not alone of the
opinion, that there is no other way to
put a stop i the' petty csplbuage' ex
ercised by the agents of the attorneys
over the small dealers in whiskey and
tobacco in the! South for insignificant
and purely ttchuical olleiiccs. But it
is not in - the Southern State aloi
that dealers are bound down and
fined without the least benefit there
from accuring to the Treasury ; nor
is it the small dealers only who uf
fer by th s i iniquitous procedure.
Neither are the prosceut ing attorneys'
of the Government the only ones vrho
are ehrichcI .by this quasi-icgal meth-,
od of black mall. The pernicious prac-:
tice of givihgi fees to officials and
moieties to informers has grown in
vogue in nearly every branch of the
Goyernmcul; Customs spies have
become rielij in their loathsome, pur
suit. Yet men have been found, to
defeud, in our own - halls of legisla
tion, the practice and the acts of the
spy and informer. We are gratified
that one has,rat last, been moved to
attack the system which has obtained:
under the GiOvemment. In the specclr
which lie will make : advocating the
passage of the bill, we are told Mr.
Coke will rb; over the whole ground.
But the desired object will not have
been accompHshetl unless his bill, , or
some other to become an act, shall be
broad enough to sweep out 'the whole
secret service as well as the list of
fees and .emoluments. ,
