The Baltimore Sun of Monday has the
following relative to a fast freight line to
be known as the "Great Southern Dis-
mtch." This is an important movement
aud it behooves our mercantile communi
ty to be nu the alert; The Sun says :
A new fast freight hue, to be known as
the "Great Southern Dispatch," is now
jeing organized by the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia, Norfolk and Wes
tern, Shenandoah Valley, Western Mary-
and, Cumberland, Valley and Pennsyl
vania railroads, to run .betweeuall south
ern and southwestern points aud Balti
more, Philadelphia aud New York. No
announcement has yet been made of the
time of inaugurating the Hue; but it will
doubtless be ready for business within
the next thirty days. The line will start
with 50b cars piovided by the several com
panies in proportion to their interested
mileage. This is the first thiough south
ern freight line ever established with
Baltimore, and in that respect it is to the
business community the most important
railroad movement contemplated for some
time. The East and West fast freight
mes of the Pennsylvania, Baltimore aud
Ohio, and the other trunk hues are con
spicuously known everywhere and then
business is enormous.
The main stem of the new Great South
ern Dispatch will be 1,190 miles long,
trom New York to Chattanooga, or Sel-
ma, but its cars will be sent to all points
east of New York and all over the South
and Southwest. There will be uo limit
in the number of its care which cau b
commanded by the Baltimore trade, for
the mileage proportion assigned to the
Westeru Maryland will have .nothing to
do with that matter. If Baltimore gives
sufficient business to employ 300 cars she
will get them. The Pennsylvania has
entered into the compact oh behalf of the
Cumberland Valley, from Hagerstowu to
Harrisburg, its main line from there to
Philadelphia, and the United Railroads
of New Jersey to New York, i The Wes
tern Maryland joins the combination in
the interest of Baltimore, which, as fast
freights are run, will have about twenty
four hours advantage in time, over New
York, and a fair recognition in the mat
ter of low rates over more distant Eastern
points. The several companies are hav
the cars assigned for the line painted and
lettered according to the adopted designs
and in a few days a sample ear will lie
sent ou to the Westeru Maryland from
the Shenandoah Valley shops at Roauoke,

Piedmont Press : The most cracious re
vival of religion ever kuown in Hickory
is now in progress at the Methodist
church. The meeting will probably con
tinue some time and result iu great
good. We notice that long trains of
the celebrated Piedmont wagons are
brought to the depot every few days for
shipment. About forty excellent work
men are now employed in the factories
and wagons are being turned out rapidly.
1 he protracted meeting at Hensoirs
Chapel on Cove Creek, is still in pro
gress and has continued for nearly three
weeks. Rev. Messrs Wiggins and Osborne
are conducting it and it has resulted in
75 conversions and 57 additions to the
church. Since the tanners of Jacob's
Fork have begun pudiug fodder, they
find that their corn is better than they
expected, and the yield will be better
than they anticipated. The farmers are
very busy now making their fodder.

make a third of a crop.
An Unpleasant Reminder.
That good Democrat, Capt. Thos. C.
Evans, one ef the bravest men who han
dled a musket or a sabre during the 'War,
has this to say in his paper, the Milton
Chronicle, about Pat Winston, Jr.:
"In 187475 Pat Winston beat us for
Reading Clerk of the Senate. The patri
ots of the Democratic party thought us
too much tinctured with Republicanism.
We don't know what they thought of Jim
Hill, of Stokes, who also ran, except that
he fanght through the. war as a private,
plowed a stab-tail ball at home, and bad
a wife and six small children to scuffle
for. Anyhow ws got two votes and Jim
Hill got four, and Pat raked in the rest.
It was said then that Pat was son-in-law
to a millionaire, and oh, my ladies, how
the patriots did toady. It is refreshing to
gaze back over a stretch ef years and pe
culiarly pleasing to note time's changes
with the patriots and their pets.

made from a different kind of wood
Tiiere are forty eight varieties of Arkan

ed variety of pine lumber isjnucii suggiit

it sell at very high prices, ahU are much
admired by people of taste.' So great has
the demand for this kind of furniture in
creased recently thnt several respectable
establishments iu the French capital are
devoted exclusively to its manufacture.
There does not exist the slightest reason
why the fine grained, quarter sawn and
curly pine of the southern States should
uot rank among the most desirable aud
popular furniture woods. Its use as a tin
ishing wood is already essablished, and
we predict for it a brilliant future as a
furniture wood.

and is the admiration of all vistors
in the early part of the week we were
visited by embassies of Corea and of the
West India Islands, aud yesterday by Gov.
Cameron and party, of Virginia. The
truth of the matter is that North Carol i
na has the attion of tlie American fair,
and around our department the
lingers; for here he finds most of in
tercet. T.K.B
A young lady artint married a young
gentleman artist. The uucle of the bride
iide a call upon them and fouud them
sitting in opposite corners of their joiut
studio, in the sulks, the husband saying
thnt his wife's waist was out of propor
tion and the wife saying that her hus
band's uese was to small.
especially this quarter of it, renders
necessary the payment of heavy trans
portation charges. The inference there
fore is natural that the business can lie
conducted profitably in the South. Re
ferring to oue of tae companies engaged
in the industry, the Kennebec Framing
Company, the Bangor Mining and Indus
trial Journal has the following : "Dwell
ing houses are made like boots and
visitor soes ih any quantity or of any size or
stjie, auu lor Hiiy mii Keiiu uie wiue
world. Not long since this firm received
ft ft ,. . 1 s-.
a single order for nrry nouses for L ape
May, to be delivered speedily aud in
complete finish. These houses were not
to be sheds, nor shanties, but regularly
ordered dwellings, and they were made
accordingly, and so delivered, and con
tain hundreds of occupants at this mo
ment. An order will be received for a
$50,000 hotel, or an ornnte French
cottage for a fine con ntry estate,
these are as easily and
It is not within the province of the press
to prejudge the late ot any man charged
with crime, and for this reason we have
refrained from comment ou the verdict
in the case of Thomas L. Shields until
the justice of that verdict might be final
ly considered by the highest court of the
State. We would gladly continue to be
silent ou the subject, but wheu the local
press ot distant counties indulge in re
flections upon Mecklenburg tunes, or
usurp the right of the community iu
which au offender is knowu "to petition
the executive for his pardon, we think it
proper aud right that we should have a
word in their defense. Tlie larboro
Southerner, a down-east contemporary,
proceeding on the principle that "an
Edgecombe jury would uever have allow
ed it never !" issues a proclamation to
Gov. Jarvis aud demands the pardon of
Shields iu big capitals like these: Par
don him instantly! Tne Statesville
American, after thawing a strange con
tratt between Uie verdict on the negro
Willis Davis and that on Shields, asks:
"Is this the protection that te males re
ceive at the bauds of a Mecklenburg
iurv V This is what we cau loud criti
cism. It is tlie venture of au opiuiou by
those who pever heard the ttud ou the
i ust ice of a verdict rendered "by twelve
men who beard every word from begin
ning to end. We suppose a jury picked
from eood aud lawful men of Mecklen
burg are quite as capable of appprecia
tiug the manly revenge of a female wrong
as an Edgecombe jury, but the difference
between them iu this case is that th
story of seduction was heard aud disbe
lieved bv the jury iu the case, and Uie
Edgecombe men have uot been called on
to pass upon it as jurors. Shields set up
two defenses; the seduction of his sister
and self-defense. Toward the end of his
case he relied mainly on the latter plea.
If a jury of good men disbelieved one of
them and thought the other improbable,
we fail to see good reason for criticism
bv those who never heard the evidence
Loud criticism is not always correct, and
aud proclamations to the Governor may
sometimes be out of season. Journal-Ob
