Tiie Injury to North Carolina A Con

i Raleigh News.
The Richmond Dispatch tries to
comvort its "Petersburg contempo
raries by asking " Does .North Caro
lina suiter any injury from the change
of gauge "on the Air-Line Road from
Richmond to Atlanta ?" And adds
by way of reply: "There was a break
at Charlotte when the North Carolina
4.8 gauge met the five, foot gauge
from the Sou th. That break has been
tranxf erred to Greensboro. That is
all. North Carolina has still one
break of gauge. That is all."
Hardly all. That break of gauge
at Charlotte took place at the end of
the North Carolinavsy8tem. It came
at that point in connection with the
South Carolina system completed
years before. It left all her own in
terior system intact. From that sys
tem the Western North Carolina
road, the North Western North Car
olina road, and from the former,
branching off the road from States
ville to Charlotte, with a promise at
some future day of an almost infinite
multiplication of the same connec
tions, binding all parts of the State

cause the projectors' of the North

WILMINGTON, N. Ci,. SATURDAY.
jTbe Free Schools.
j A gentleman who is deeply interested in
the matter of education and who attended
the animations in two of the public schools
yeste rday, gives us the following:
!. "To-day being examination day in the
public schools, the writer took occasion to
attend two of them. I The exercises were
very creditable to both pupils and teachers
but especially so to the latter. : We doubt
if anjy schools in the State are better con
duct id than the public schools of Wilming-
: ton. They unquestionably furnish a most
exce lent means of obtaining a good educa
tion .o every child of both races in the city.
' The teachers are graduates of some of the
best schools, both North and South, and are
earnest and faithful toilers in a good cause.
To I lose who have never visited the public
schools, we would say, by all means do so.
You have, perhaps, no idea of the honest,
earn ;st effort that is going on to educate the
rising generation of all classes around you.
You will here find many of the little waifs,
that you thought entirely neglected, receiv
ing with eagerness excellent instruction,'
preparing for usefulness, perhaps for dis
tinction. '
" JVc learn from the Superintendent,
Rev. H. B. Blake, that the public schools
are now capable of furnishing instruction
for s 11 the children in the city during eight
mon;bsof every year. These schools are
supported from the Peabody fund and from
the ublic School fund of the State.
. "In these schools have been taught during
the past winter some eleven hundred pupil?,
and if we include the Hemenway school,
whkhisa free school supported by Mrs.
Hemenway; about fourteen hundred pupils
have received instruction free of charge
during the past winter. We think, under
all the circumstances, Wilmington has just
cause to feel proud of her free schools, as
well as of her other excellent schoois. The
free schools especially demand her foster
ing care, as they furnish the means of edu
cation to thousands who would, perhaps, be
unable otherwise to obtain it." i I

Bald Upon a Noisy Crowd. .
Complaint having been lodged at the of
fice of the City Marshal to the effect that a
large number of colored boys were in the
habit of congregating'on a vacant lot at the
corner of Sixth and Mulberry streets," play-'
ing ball, &c.,'and acting in such a I boister
ous manner as to prove exceedingly annoy
ing to people iesiding in the neighborhood,
a squad of policemen were sent to look after
them yesterday afternoon. The raid proved
a decided success. The officers came upon
the noisy crowd in thevery height lof their
enjoyment and before they were fully aware
that the ' Philistines" were amongst them
fully thirteen of them had been placed hors
du combat and were on their way to the
Guard House;. ; Arriving there they were
met by City Marshal Robinson, who pro
ceeded to lecture them very soundly, after
which, on thej promise of not offending in
the future, they were finally released.

thank you for the fidelity with which yon carried out
my instructions., i The general outline, beauty of
proportion and excellent finish, are all that could be
desired, and more than meets my expectations.: I
am more than ever impressed with the idea that it is
as necessary for a man to have a gun built to meas
urement as to have a boot so built to ensure a good
fit. The pattern 175 and penetration 40 are very su
perior. The pattern is as close as I desire and the
penetration I think' is seldom attained, being far
ahead of any public record which I have seen. . '
