Ail of lb papers of that growiag, tbriviog ctty viw the matter with much satisfaction, and prophecy thai ib North Carolina Midland Raijroad, lor sacb it is lo b caJIJ, will coo tribat 00 little to the growth and wealth of that city. Tbey think it will make Baltimore in the end as important a cotton market m it ia a Tia market now. It is understood that Spartanbarg is merely the termi nal for the time.

Who cares a 6g for the "North Carolina ystem?" Elsewhere to-day we pub lish iome instructive extracts from a Italeigh letter io the New York Ttrms, There is a good deal more of truth io what is said than will be ac knowledged io some quarters. IlISTOKICAI. KRHOR9 SCHUUL9 The Stab more than once has had something to say about Northern school histories of the United States used io Southern schools. Most of this class of books are to be con- demoed, because of the unqualified perversioos aod even falsehoods which they palm off as truth. The South is invariably misrepresented. So very unfair and false are these writers they cannot give the facts coocerniog battles. So tremendous was. the disparity io the number of soldiers on cither side, aod ao very much larger were the Northern ar mies than ibe Southern in nearly all of the battles of the war, that tbe writers of school books are actually loth to be caugbl io tbe neighbor hood of the exact truth. No ooe could form an approximately correct idea of what occurred really from these books that the Southern people tolerate in their schools. If Southern parents would do their duty they would not permit iheir children to study them. We are iodoced lo refer ihos briefly to the matter because of a communication we noticed in the New Voik Sun written by a clergy man in that city. It seems thai the manuals of hi lory used in certain schools and colleges in that Slate abound io errors that are misleading to the Northern mind. Without in dorsing what is said we copy a para graph from ibe communication to show how untrustworthy the histo ries are regarded in mailers pertain tog to religious bodies. Tho writer says: -It Is a well heowa focttbst PuriUo his tory of Maw agtAds eAxly coloefrzAtloe bas beea wriUe) k a lhoroubly pextiiaa sad uotrastwortby maooer.

We echo the sentiments that "the whole tralh aoi, no thing but the truth" Is what history ought to teach. If history becomes a mete tiaaae of misrepresentation and perversion; if it is full of error of various kinds, of wbat value tail. Ordinarily the style of American histories U oot worth considering for it scarcely nseaio the level of respectable journalism. In some instances it U erode, incorrect, uoscbolarly.

DeJaroette, who murdered his Bis ter, escapes punishment on the plea of insanity. That is the old, well used, never-failing dodge. In this particular instance the grounds for acquittal may be jast and proper, but if he is insane be ought to be confined in an asylam for life. When a man'a insanity is of that sly, hidden type that no ooe suspects it, aod he yet may be capable of very desperate deedn, he is too dangerous a "fellow- citizen" to be turned loose upon so ciety. We give no opinion as lo the fiodioe of tbe iurv. knowing but lit- w or tie of the evidence, but we are clearly of tbe opinion that if be is too insane to be punished for murder, he is loo insane lo be allowed to walk about 1 unguarded, having free access to peo- pie's throats.

From IUlelgh Letter In N. Y. Times, 15tb. Raleigh, N. C, April 15. When Thomas J. Jarvis was inaugurated Governor of this State there was a flourish over Democratic trumpets, and the announcement was made far and wide that the "North Carolina System" was to be put into immediate execution with the railroads con- trolled by the State. North Caro lina was to have, we were told, a through line from Asheville, on the summit of the Blue Ridge, to More bead, on our-Atlantic coast. Tbe road from Morebead to Goldsboro was at once put under a new manage- I ment. with Col. A. B. Andrews as Superintendent. CoL Andrews was also Superintendent of the North Carolina Central Road, from Golds boro to Charlotte, which is leased to tbe Richmond t Danville Company. The Western North Carolina -llosd was next sold to W. J. Best, W. R. Graoe, (now Mayor of New York). J. Kelson TaDDao. and James L. Fisb, of New York. For some rea- 'u BUU UD;T-L , ( t- Tappan and Fisb. after visttiog tbis .Stat8 and expressing their willing- ness to ratify the sale negotiated by Mr. Bert, refused to organize under I ibeobarter granted to him, and be f obliged to raise ttie money called , 1 . . , (rom anolher B0Qrce, iQ thlg emer pney he boo wed $50,000 for 90 days from A.

Carolina Road, except 7,500 shares ot the stock, to Buford, Clyde and Lo gan to pay his indebtedness to them, and also to secure the oompletion of tne road to faint Itock, on the Ten iresM line, and Dncktown, near tbe Georgia Hoe, in accordance with tbe terms of his contract with tbe Sute It now. appears that Mr. Best baa never spent a dollar of hia own mo- ney oo the road, bat that Buford. Clyde and Logan had advanced, np to Jan. 1st last, $160,000 in aid of the road. Mr.. Best madeltheassign ment lo hiacreditorkiuly I880, I Oat tie remained nominally x rwHueny or the western norm viftfonDV"811' road. The "North Carolina System" is a potent war-cry in the political battles of ibis State, and it was neces--sary .tofceep the assignment made ' by Mr. Best a secret until after the election for.

Jarvis'would');neYerhav been re-elected to theiGoyerrtorship.:' The first hint of the.tmth given to. the people was tha. ,chauge, -tiade in the gauge of the Wster-o-North Car olina Railroad, just ooe week after Jar via had been fraudulently counted in as Governor,and full.knowledge of the entire transaction waa not made public until the meetiog of tbe-Legis-latnre in January last, when the facts were unearthed by a committee of investigation. Messrs. Buford and Best testifled that Gov. Jarvis knew' nothing of the transactions between them notil they were brought to light by the committee. It is posaibly a small matter to the people whether the road is run by Mr. Best or the Richmond & Danville Company, but it is very strauge that the death blow should have been dealt to the "North I Carolina System" in July, 1880, aud Uov. Jarvis sbould remain in ignor acce of the' fact until February, 1881. VVhen ibe Legislature met a bill was introduced in the Senate and passed substituting tbe Piedmont Railroad Company for Messrs. Bo ford, Clyde and Logan in the contract lor ibe sale ot tne road, it was argued that these gentlemen are. per sonally responsible as the Assignees of Mr. Best, and that the Piedmont corporation is totally insolvent. This bill failed in the House of Represen tatives, because it was assumed that Messrs. Bedford, Clyde and Logan are really trustees for tbe benefit of the Riobmond & Danville Company that these gentlemen and this com- I PaPT. ' are solvent, and that the Sta K ' -.i-be betterserved by maintaining I lUC W WFOIJ VIEJus I " me present stains, inereupon, jur. Best sued out an injunction to pre vent his removal as President of the ... rw sr I road. This injunction was promptly dissolved by Judge Seymour last week at Wilkesboro. and on the 12th insL, at Salisbury, there was an ad- Mourned meeting of tbe stockholders 01 me v esiern norm Carolina roaa. The terms of office of YV. J. Best and the other officers appointed on the 28tb of May, 1880, were deolared terminated, and all authority invested in tbem was revoked. Tbe through line is now ran from New York to New Orleans over tbe North Carolina Central from Greens boro to Charlotte, and south over tbe air lines. The road from Paint Rock to Salisbury will of necessity be a feeder to the Richmond and Danville through line. All freight will diverge at Greensboro and be forwarded North by Danville. Water facilities from Morebead are meagre; and will never De maoo oetter until an earth quake or some other oonvnlsion shakes up and destroys the rooks that now makes tbe Hatter as coast the most dangerous on tbe Atlantio shore. Consequently, all freights consigned to the Riobmond and Danville road will not be brought further East than Greensboro, unless specially ordered. There is no connection between Sal isbury and Wilmington other than by Charlotte over the Richmond and Danville line, and then down tbe Carolina Central to Wilmington. Of course, neither passengers nor freight would go or be forwarded over this route, either north or south. The control over the air-line road from Charlotte to Atlanta by the Rich mond and Danville Company effect- ually outs off Wilmington, and also shuts off Norfolk by way of Hamlet from Charlotte over the Carolina Central Road, to Raleigh and then on to Norfolk over tbe Raleigh aod Sea Board roads. Io view of the control of these varions roads by the Richmond St Danville Company, the question is now asked by interested people, "Wbat has become of the North Carolina system ?" Tbe peo ple east of the Wilmington & Wei don Road declare that they have been shamefully betrayed by Gov. Jarvis, and that North, Carolina is now practically a strip of land be tween two States, used for the pur pose of impoverishing berself and enriching Virginia. Whether this was inteoded a year ago when the Western North Carolina Road was sold, it is hard to say, but many of our citizens accuse both Jarvis and. Best of having, played directly into the bands of the Richmond & Dan-r ville . Company. This is doubtless true of Gov. Jarvis, but nothing ex cept the assignment has yet traus- .. . . w- ... pired to indicate that Mr. Beat did not act in good faith, toward tbe State.
