years of age, who was troubled for a
lonz time with sores breaking out-over

the usual alterative treatment for a long

The following, which we clip from the
Statesville Landmark, will be read with
interest here. It is a fact, as. we under-
stood some months ago, receiving the in
formation in such a way that we could
not use it, that a through Western line
from the Ohio to Wilmington is to be
built and that the Cape Fear and Yadkin
Valley R. R. is to be utilized as a part
of the line. Our information was to
the i. effect that men of means and
enterprise were engaged in thennderUk

be held here. The construction of this
road would be the making of Wilming

the Landmark: .

directors of the Cape Fear & Yadkin
Valley Railroad, was called to Raleigh
last weeK to aiiena a meeiiDg

and discussed, and President Gray, who
had been made acquainted in advance
with the terms of the proposition, was
rather surprised that no communication
was received, but att ibuted it to a delay
for which there was a sufficient reason.
It is understood that parties in New
York are prepared to offer $55,000 for
the State s stock in the road, assume its
liabilities and bind themselves to build it
according to the charter. They say it raJ
their desire to open a line direct -from
Cincinnati to Wilmington, and that they
can COmmand all needed capital. Presi-
dent Gray has visited NewiYork and in-
