The mirj. recent bug-bear ofmodcrii
politic is the new party rejcnly nrgm
iicd, or rather now in procew of or
ganization, and culled by its members
the National party. Who flic its lead
ers what its objects and how it hopes
to at'ain ihesj objects are a'l maUnrs of
dispsle. The only thing dt finitely
known oc the suhjct being that 1). V
Butler, a man who gained some local
notoriety during the lite war in connec
tion with portable articles of personal
property spoons and things, lias gone
in to lhe. new party and is bidding for
t,h,e leadership.
This new party however, without
form and roid as it is, seems to have
carried terror to the breast of certain
gentlemen, who oujlit to know, better.
Tbey seeming to regard the embryonic
Organisation as the cloud no bigger
than a man's hand, from which the del
UfO w.ili hereafter come.
We hardly deem it necessary to say
that we do not share in these alarms.
While our days are yet too young to re
member much of. the formation and
growth of the parties, a somewhat care
ful 6lt;dy of -political history leads us to
believe that the time has not, yet come
when tho disorganized fragments of a
beaten, dead and dispersed party,
without principles and without leaders,
can control the politics of the nation, and
so far as can be now seen the National,
party, 50 far as it has organizitbn, is
composed of the remnants of the late
National Republican, paity, and its lead
ers, if it las nnv. were, n very short
while since, the head lights of thai now
happily defunct orgauizition.
The new National party is, in our
opiuion, a bugaboo to frighten children.
The young man who goes hit it as a
leaes Jinds Bt'n'n',n5 political power
will very soon feci the need of a dry
nurse. The old Democratic party is
alive aud full of vior. This party gov
erned lie country nell for many years.
Wc believe that it can and will do si far
many more after the election of lftxo.
ion ox.ki:s.
The list of Democratic !ioiiin&,t'tOt)s,
f'-,r all except this, the second, t'on
re5mal cli,tricu, was completed last
Thursday by the nomination ut Raleigh
of lie tiied and tiusly leader of the
democratic column in the Metropolitan
District, Joseph J. Davis of Franklin,
and lo-day we run the ticket to our
wast bead and begin to clear our decks
fjr the decisive battle of November.
One thing very noticabl? about the
ticlet we present is that, with one
cx epliou, the K'liiucralic members of
the present (" ingress have been nomi
nated fur re-election to their posts.
This simple fact speaks mure than
volumes for the gei.Oemcn. N iw let
the people of ;he Districts do their duty
ud this li-,t will be elected.
In ihij district nothing has yet been
done, nor are wc informed what steps
the D stiict Executive ( unmilteo have
in view. Oar own opinion is clear that
we should have a regular Iyinocrutic
ticket in the fiflil, ni f.ir mnny reaimis.
First we should have a ca-nliilate as n
ineaos, of preserving p.rty organiiili.in.
Jt is well to Lct ear mppmtert in the
habit of voting, for while the prepou.
derancc of the urgro Tote i this Dis
trict is such that in county and District
elections we have little hope of success,
there may come a time when the vole of
this C ingrcvsional district will be !cll
with terrible effect in the State elcc
lino,. Another and- a stronger reason why
we should have a candidate in the field
is that it would be to llva eternal dis
grace of the white people of the district
ulsould J. E O'Hara be allowed to win
without a contest. It is our duty to
protest by our votes against the shame
whiph the bUck clement hat put upon
us, and, we can do this only by voting
aisinst hup.
These reasons, are sufficient why thp
Committee should give us a candidate
of our own, and we call os the Commit
tee to set at once.
irui r.oAii management.
We liae been handed a n. ai pares-
phlet coataioing the proceeding? had I
t,he stockholders of the North Carolina
Kailroad C impany at their Sy,h aom a'
meeting, together with certain reports
from certaiu ollbcrs. and from the
Finance C iramiuoe, which said report
from the Finance C.msmittee.ia so full
of -'chunks"-of solid monetary wisd im,
tbat we reproduce i; entire oo our out
side page.
In eiaminiiig this pamphlet the fust
thing that strikes one is, that for the
fiscal year ending Miy Slit, 1378 the
excess of receipts over expenditures was
f 233.37.j,G7, and that this am lunt had
been applied to the fund for the cxt'w
gu'shincut of the debt ol the Oimjiany.
This was a good showing, and, upon
reading it, we turned over to the report
of the Finance 0 unmittee, for the pur
pose cif seeing how this fund was rnan-
gud. It we err at all it is in being too
mild when we say that this report dis
closes a iiiost disgraceful system uf mis
management. The coinmittec.rpens its report in re
lation to the deltj, of the c, on'jni'.y bv
saying, that the amount of the bonded
iudcbtcdnes of the company duo on
the litdiy nf November 177, and still
unpaid is S'U.oOil.OO, The committee
further slates that it lind in the hands
of N. II h, Wilson, the Trustee nf the
sinking fund lj,fiiiO 00 consisting of
CSiV'in items detailed. Now why this
amount was allowed to remain in the
hands of the Trust 'e, when this large
debt was doe and unpaid is, one, of those
things "that," at first sight, "uo fellow
can find out." We arc sure that no
prudent business man in the State would
manage his aifaiis, in any such manner,
and we are of opiuiou that Trus'.ees,
should manage trust funds with st
least as much of care as a prudent busi
ness man would bttotv on his private
affairs. Dit an examination of the
items which make up the total of flSo,
GGO.OO solves the problem. The trustee
had sunk the sinking fund. Instead of
extinguishing the debt, he hid extin
guished the fund with which the debt
was to have been paid, and, when the
sinking fund w to be used, it had been
flittered away. l,'o show that i,lu'se
strictures nre deserved, wc will look at
the items in detail,
1. The first item consists of a judge
ment against the Atlantic Tennessee
and ilhio Kailroad Company for jl-v-7-"
H and 31 gold bonds of the same
Company charged at f0 per cent, mak
ing a total investment in th'i company
ol j73 570 ."i7. What this investment is,
worth we do not personally k.iow, but
gentlemen, whosi judgment is relied on
in business circus, have informed us
that they look upon it with grave sus
picion.
2 and i. The (Second and third items
are, we suppose good for their face
value, but even in these gross negligence
is evidenced by the fact, that interest on
them has not been collected, for nearly
four years, and this interest amounting
to i2(O0,O0 is allowed to lie iiile, when
it should be either ciroin; interest or
paying the debt of the company.
I Tlio fourth itens, in the account is
a certificate of deposit of Wilson and
Sliobcr for f 2j.0iW, with interest at 8
pet cent, from Uiih (btober se
en id by person il security and, mnrt
gige on the Greensboro Female C -lege
for 10.300 00. What the pers n
al security is we are not informed. las
mediately after this l-.h item is one, ml
nu nbered, Consisting of a note for $17,.
1'? 07 secured by secmd niprtgae on
the Female College and a n He for f -iOitO,
secured by a moiage on pianos
ar.dbinio furniture and &32,8(it U( uf
notes nf the Dink of Cipe Fear. This
develops tidiness. Wilson and S'lober
is the lirm of bankers in Greensboro,
which litely become si veiy insiWent.
N,. II. D. Wils'ii was a partner in this
concern as well as trustee of the Uiil
maJ C iinpany, and si it appears, that
the trustee loaned $2o.OOO ol the trust
fund to himself, and secured this sum
by vague personal security and a mmt.
gago on a "gal school" for $lG,30rt.(Hi
C..IJ licaited UoUitk of law would Call
this by a harsher name than mere mis
minagcmont. Tno certificito of de
posit on Wilsou and Sliober is not worth
the paper it is written on. Tlie pcrionsl
security is not set forth so as to enable
one to judge of its vslue, and if there is
one tiling that a railroad company has
no use for it is a Female Collene.
I o
Here's $25 0,00, gone. The mmurtibercd
item which follows number t is in much
fie same con'on, amounts to 22,-
102 (7 and is secured bf a 2 .d, mnrt
eage on the college, a mortgage on 4
pianos and a lot of furniture and some
Hank of Capo Fear m-'es, than which,
since the Harvey Terry decision, more
woitbless bits of papir do not exist.
And, while we often bear of a railroad
company's organ, this is probably tbo
first instance on record where one in
dulged in pianes.

T.his rcvipw we thinly by the facts

lh.it wo have on th suhj ict.
'1 he pamphlet to which we have referred
gives further evidences of grave mis-
management by the olli,:crs of the com
pany, such m;s nana 'emo.it in fact as
a rash mm w mU cill corruption, but
wc have not space now to advert to
them. We hive aire idy treated of th:s

by the facis of the case, and our opinion
in this behalf is shared by s me of the

Missus Kimtols: Allow me
through your cnlumiis t present t the
reading public, a few thoughts and con
siderations on the ubjc'. heading this
article. The subject, although a trite
and, common one, dues not receive
that attention its great importance
merits a,nd demands. ' The object iu
framing our free-schu.il system, is in-,
deed a most wise, and laudable one to
oOei and afl'irj means to the great bulk
of children, growing up arour.d us, for
obtaining u practical education thereby
becoming fitted for properly meeting
and d'schargin the mighty responsibil
ities of life !j have stated the object
our wise legislators had in view, in
framing the dec school system, and
have also stated the results it is tx
peeled would naturally and reasonably
follow. Now, I ask an intelligent read
iug public, to notice and note, the prac
tical winkings nf this system. Tlie most
important nlli:ers in this free-school de
partment, are the school com nittecmen
and on the manner in which they meet
and discharge their duties, does success
or failure to iicooini lijii good follow.
Generally it is the duty of the Com
miilce to employ nnd dismiss teachers
to locate school-houses and in loca
ting them, they are required both by
the Ic'lcr nnd spirit of this law, to place
them in a central position i. e. in a lo
cation, best adapted, to benefit and ac
commodate ths greatest number of
children, il is also their duty to de'er
uiine the pay per month. It is their
boenden duty to visit these schools, to
see if ihcy are properly taught, and to
take r. general supervision of the opera
lion ol lhe public schools in their res
pective Districts. Tney should, endeavor
to b.iild up nn educational ii.tercst, and
sec that the law, so far as they' are
charged with its execution, is properly
infoi'ced. N iw Messrs. F. litors, I have
stated the duties lint pertain til the
ofihe "f the School, Committee, now,
generally. Is o do they perform their
ollicial obligalions? I will try and an
swer by on illustration. A wants a free
school, after several intervies with the
School C unmittee, he or she, is granted
the permission, to teach one some
where provided A. will obtain a house
and the school g ies into operation the
C. immiltee in many cases, hard'.i- know
wheie the house is located, never pay,
as a general thing one single visit to see
how things nre conducted j f ially the
teacher winces up the school, the Com
mittee give an orJjr on the proper dis
bursing nlTicer, for the money, and there
the mat'er cuds.
Now. who wilt say this is not the prac
tical w. iking of this system ia our
midst?
N i wonder tint in many cases, these
schools accomplish very l,tila good.
The honest and hard working lass payers
of our country are the sources from
which this fund Springs. They should
constitute our school Committees, and
not these professional men, whose du
ties and neenpati ins ui a such, ihnt they
cnu'iot render ellUiunt service lor the
public schools. It is quite common,
for children to go out oflheir own town
ships to free-ichools. This is right if
the emergency the law contemplates
arrives, and verv wrong and unwst, if al
lowed, contrary to law. In casvs of
very great hardship or inconvenience, it
is ullownble, and then the respective
School C imiuiuees, should see to it,
that cacti township is responsible for its
free school children, when the piy
aiiporuouej. 1 conclude tliat il our
free-school Committees would ddligcnlly
and cllidenlly discharge their duties, the
people would take an increased interest
in these schools ; a-id as a result, we
would see verv ecneral improvement
'e as a people should shake off our
lethargy, in this rcspcrt, and we would
do well to imitate the New England
States on the free-school saMect There
"education is more general, than in any
other part of lhe world ; and large funds
have been set apart by the different
slate Legislatures for the support nf
common schools. It is rare to find, in
any part Of the Eastern States, nat'nrs
of the country, of mature age, who are
ignorant of re iding, writing and arithmetic."
What n hmenlable contrast docs
North ('-ar'liiia Tor instance present,
when ire for one man e it cm te pl e
the number, grown up to manhood, ai d
womanhood, whose minds have nevr
been the recipients of eten the clemei t
tary pKrivjip'es of education?
Ii my lii x', I will endeavor to point out
the good re-ults, that would Bow from
our common schools if properly con
ducted, toward, educating, enlightening
and reun'.pg the body p' ljtic.
