The Philadelphia Press has a letter from its 1 staff correspondent, dated Wilmineton, N. C. Feb. t. We copy the following: ,v - Wilmington is rather a nice little city ol some 20,000 inhabitants, situated on the Cade Fear river, twenty miles from the ocean, and is the smartest shipping port, as well aa the largest city, in North . Carolina. The turpentine belt pours all its products intd this place1 for shipment, and it baa therefore a large foreign, as well, as coast wise commerce, indeed, it does the largest trade in rosin and other naval stores of any poit in the world. Within the past few vears it has done something in the cotton trade, and last year shipped seventy thou sand bales! and expects to send a hundred thousand jto market next year. : It is the I terminus v of the Wilmington & Weldon - Railroad, the headquarters of the boast line, the quickest and best route between Richmond and Florida. This line has Bone much to push Wilmington along. It has large railroad shops here, and en courages trade to this point in every pos sible; way.! Mr. K. K-undeers represents the corporation and is identified with many industrial interests, as well as railroads. which centre around ' Wilmington. It is saidiof him that he has added more than any fane man, since the war, to the dignity and importance of the place. Bridgers is a Southern man bom and bred, tie has. however, a Northern mind and a Northern energy anil sagacity." A practical worker, he turns everything to account and thrives and helps bis town, while, so many of his Southern- friends forget that the .world .; moves." "; - ; A Northern man can never, praise the South, or any person or thing connected with it heartily. He must always have his qualifying phrases or mngB. xne ixortn tnougnt petore the waf that the South could not fight! and could not stand the ex- . posures and fatigues of a protracted campaign. But they learned sope- thing, before the war ended and x NOW ; they will not forget it soon. Jjoe Njorth thinks the Southern white cannot work, lacks' energy, and : in . fact lacks everything. After awhile, I it may be, they will find out that the war developed energy and go-ahead- ltiveness as weii as magnincent ngnt- mg qualities. -:- : - r ; . ; The borrespondent ' of V the" Press thinks -North Carolina " is i 1 less of a Southern othera.H State than any - of the This is amusing. , The : na tive white "Tar heel " is about the white most pronounced, wool-dyed, indi-' go-blue thorough-going Southern man you can scare up between Mary land and the Florida everglades. Just touch him in the quarter of loy- alty to Sthe South, to human liberty, to his own kith and kin, and you will : stir up a hornet at once. The Press t man would do well to read North Carolina history,' and ' he " will have . some of his crude ideas corrected The Correspondent found out that North Carolina would have gone Re publican last year if the " National - party nihad rendered proper Vappojt. sHe learned that a thorough campaign will . hand over the State into the keeping of the Radicals again. Bah ! Under the old issues, with "only f the old parties in the field, the Democrats can ; always carry the State unless they are foolish enough to! nominate make .inexcusable' blun4ers. 'The ; Democratic majority with a full vote ; is not less than 80,000. v Old Ananias Cameron; after hold- . icg a conversation with a chance ao- J- quaintance he picked up on the cars, with the sagacity of a Pennsylvania Radica came to the conclusion that : toe soutnera - people . were -very re ' luctant to see the truth.

After examining ioto the matter, the Senate found H would not do to tie vy the tax first proposed and to; which the Stab objected; for reasons easily understood by. all who choose to on demand them. :.' The School bill that passed the Senate levies. but 12- cents on the $100, but if ibis should prove: in any s county, to:- be insafficientt gether with -the? 37 centaoapitation tax, fines, etc., then the County . Board of 1 Education is required to levy- a speoial tax to . meet deficiencies. There is to be at least one Bchool for tout months in each district, c ; ? -.This will strike the friends of edu cation ? generally, l ways ; excepting the Toisnot Home, as being prefera ble' and wiser ..than to levy a tax which would embarrass greatly the operations of county governments. The Legislature evidently so regarded it. jThe Fayettev.ille J&arniner ap preciated the Stab's discussion of the matter. ; It said that the present tax, 8j cents, was enough for New Han over, asjt gave, .Wilmington eight months schooling and the county six months.- - The private schools, teach but eight months. It then judi ciously remarked ; . "In other counties it is different, and the present tax is totally inadequate for the purpose in view. : Why may not a different per cent, pf taxation be fixed for different counties according to their peculiar cir cumstances f In some counties a tax of 16f cents would accomplish no more than the half of that amount does in New Hano ver. This is due to sparseneas of popula tion and to other causes. Since the money collected in each county for educational purposes is spent In that county, we see no reason why the rate should be uniform throughout the State. rThis must impress reflecting men as proper. ' There was no reason why the- law should be - uniform and for the reason the Stab gave, and for the reason ithe Examiner suggests. The Senate has chosen to- make the law uniform, and to increase the levy fifty per cent., which was the precise sum the Stab suggested. There is no. inconsistency ' in the position of the ' Stab relative to education. It ; believes fully, tho roughly in popular education. Wash ington, Madison, Webster, Everett, and hundreds of able Americans hate left- their testimony as to the ne cessity ' of educating the children.' Said Mr. Everett, "education is a better 'safeguard of liberty than a standing " army." The' great Napo leon even ' thought and, said (that public instruction , should be the first duty of government. v-iT.t The Stab believes that .education pays commercially.1 Its critio is pos sibly no believer in this dogma. -f.: The Stab also believes, that the real mud sill of a representative republican go vernment in which the people are the . sovereigns is education The Stab would be glad-- to; see-eve ry J child k in Nortb ? Carolina at school. It would be glad td knoar that each child had eight months tui- tion, and that' every i teacher in -the State was amply qualified. It would be glad to know that every School house was of the bestj and that the comfort of teachers and 'pupils was complete. The school houses' should be made a great deal better than they are. "' The Stab would indeed be glad if the tchool rfuad was treble - what it is, for then the standard of-teach-ers would be highler because of better pay, and the school houses and appa ratus would be improved, many times. But facts are facts,' and when, .the condition, of the people allows but so much tax for school purposes why at- iiempi. to go oeyona 11 r .jl ne oxab believes in levying - the largest pos-r sihle i tax, "and it h'opesi f';'hettef' day for the poor children" of North' Carolina henceforth.; ' X-' The present Legislature is .possibly an adrance on any we have had since the war.
