O.isl w & CatoJ4na It R i to be v-.trd on m the p dis im Thurnilay . We look upon this a a very imporvant matter' and' we? trust that the aiuOuut wi.l be votfd ; Our people have long desired a railway j Cunmc'ioii with O'low and tl oppr-! lUnity for securing thi is nu at hand, j The propoiirion tH maiie under very ; a - a a m . i tavoraoie circumna; c s and every; safeguard possible; ha been thrown S around the bill so as to pro ect the in terrsta of the people in the subscrip tion. . : i'bere. are. many ieaions why we favorihis subienpfon. lit the first place, Wilmington Heeds tmore railroads and in the sfoorul plncc it needs roads which c r be control ed by ourwn people ant) which will be operated br the be-nefic our home markets. Onslow is a rich and productive county which has never yet bten touch ed bya railroad. , The products o her soil are not only numerous ami variant but her waters abound in fish and ovs:ers. Th supply ot these lnsr is absolutely inexhaustible and a liberal delivery here will make Wilmington thereaie-t fih msrket on thn AtUtitio vohhk TU oysters are the be-l in the wt-r.d ami the supply h is never yet quailed the demand. : Once at New River the entire water sy8temof North Carolina is open to the' road and can be made a feeder toil. The amount asked of the county is $100,000. This "is less than 2 per cent of the assessed value of real estate in iheconniy. 'therefore, il the construe tion of this road will but increase the yalne of realty but two cents on the dollar the subscription will have paid for it self. If a piece of property worth $1,000 is raised in market value to $1,010 then the increase in value will have paid its share ot the subscription Real estate here i at a very low ebb ami is only awaiting a boom. The Onflow II. R. may give the first impetus to that boom . As for the interest, il the profits of the road do not keep down the interest on the bonds the increase of business here from that souice will be sure to do it. - In fact, the increase of business here will pav trth interest and principal. It is not by any means a bad speculation, if it takes ten years to do this, but we prophecy that it wiil done in much less time than that. If Wilmington can get to New River for $IOO,000Wilmington ought certains ly to go there. We think it dirt-cheap. And now as to the expenditure ot this $100,000. We do not vote to give this money to a syndicate of people of whom we know notning and composed of.thrs6 who care nothing for us as a people or a place, and who may bring strangers to do the work that ought to be ol right given out to our own people, but to those who are of us and with us and -who will spend here at homu every dollar that is available for the purpose. In other words, taking out the cost of the irou. it will be the right hard paying out money into the left hand and the left hand paying it back into the right hand, with the addition-! advantage of having that much more of money iu citculalion here. ; We have given briefly bercthc rea sons for the faith that is In us aud why we would be glad to sec Ibis measure voted by the. people. We honestly think it would be the best thing that could be doue for this city and ibis sec lion at this time and that it is an invest men that will pay handsomely on the outlay. The opportunity once lost may never o cur again, and it we do not take advantage of it some others 'will for such a rich county as Onslow wiil not much longer remain locked to the world.

The standard works of history, poetry, fiction and romance are well represented, while the collection la peculiarly rich in the old standard dramas. We C"u'd but wonder as we saw the opportunities there atlorded tor acquiring knowlerge that there should be a manifest apathy regarding its progress. Science, art law. medicine, and. in lact. nearly all ot the best writers of the past as well as of tha present age, in prose or poetry.' are represented, and tit the selection; of books the utmost care has been ob3erv ed to avoid the trashy or inferior public cations with which the world is now flooded. There seemed to be a lack, however, of some of the lighter iiiera tnre, such a would engage the atten linn ot younger people and especially of socb as would be entertaining to young ladies. The cost ('('.membership is only fifty cents per month, which gives free access o a library of books whose aggregate original cost was near ly or quite $5,000. 'lo-Nighi'H Entertainment. Mr. Frederick Warde, the tragedian, with his company arrived here on this morning's train from Columbia, S. C . where they played lasf -night. They will appear at the Opera House to night in Sheridan Krowles' celebrated play of "Virginius." with Mr. Warde in the title role. The New York Star, in speaking of the play. say3 : The personal in of the . charscter of Virqiniwi in Sheridan. Koowles' tragedy by Frderick Warde. at the People's Theatre last evening, was one that tair ly enraptured an audience that filled every portion of the house, from the orchestra to the last row io the gallery. To the part which John McCullough made famous the star brought a fine physique and a handsome countenance two valuable essentials. His voice was made to do good duty in the strong scenes, and tn the act before Appius Claudius he completely won th house by the moving picture ol fatherly love and the sense ot Roman honor. Sev eral times be was called before the cur tain. To morrow night the company will appear in Galba, the Gladiator, ot which the Atlanta correspondent of the Macon "Macon 7'c'araph says: Warde's presentation of "Galba, the Giadiator." tosuigbt amounted to. a sensation He was called fifteen times during the Hyeinng Eight limes was he re called in the arena see.ie, fourth act. where "Galba" recognizee his daughter and refuses to slay her His acting iu this scene was the g andesi exhibiti"ti ol dramatic power ol the robust' school seen here since Forrest played here' in 1867. No actor has ever make a greater .-impression on an At lanta audience. They wept and ahouU ed aud ruse in their seats aud would not quit recalling him at the end ol the arena scene until ha made a speech thanking them lor their generous ap prcciatuili.
