Their gilded train her grief beguiles; . ; , Her broken tow God's angel knows; A tear his eyelid wets Columbia forgets!

Daily ' i ' Courier. A three hours' stop in the night time did not' afford an opportunity for gaining a very extensive know ledge of this apparently handsome little city, jwhose. population is about 18,500. After supper I started out for a stroll, that ,1 might be able to tell the Courier headers about the appearance of. something THE 1IJTTI.K METROPOLIS. The firs y thi ng j which- struck my attention was the evident economy of the city fathers in forming a co partnership with the moon inra con tract' for lighting the city. This happened to j be one of the nights when the moon was unaidedly per forming that duty, and in a manner that would give its patrons no occa sion for grhmbling when the monthly bill should be presented. In fact, it . seemed to ne that I had never seen it give forth 'such entrancing radiance as illumined , the streets,- bathmg honse-top und steeple, and creeping through tike branches -of tree and shrub in quivering waves, of silvery light. Perhaps it served to heighten the beauties and. conceal the defects of surrouncling abjects ; certain it is at any rat4 that, as thus seen, Wil ' mington appears a decidedly neat and attractive! place. The streets are broad and are laid ' off precisely at right angles, with rows of fine trees on either side. ; The principal business streets are Front, AVater and . Market, YY ater street be ing the only one, I believe, : that is paved. There are a number of fine buildings - on j- these streets, and I noticed many very handsome private residences j duri n g my stroll." In fact, everything about the place, as viewed by the brilliant light of a southern moon, has j a neat J well-to-do appear anoej suggestive of substantial growth and prosperity. . There . are. twelve white folks' churches,; the Episco palians having the greatest number, which would j seem to indicate the aristocratic tendencies of the place. The finest j edifies, however belongs to the Baptists!, and is really a magnfi cent structure,of striking proportions and tasteful . architecture. , It is of brick and has two slender spires very much like the minarets of a Turkish mosque. One or two of the bank buildings would not appear at a dis advantage! on Main street in vour city. The peculiar loud, long-drawn' exhaust of a icotton compress calls ray attention to the fact that there is a large institution oi mat kiihi uown by the wharves. From my , slight observation I should imascine fullv half of thej circumference of the city must be river front, thus affording the finest Shipping facilities imagina ble. The city is located at the con fluence of I the Kortheast river with the Cape Fear;! but ion theeat side of the former, which throws it out side the crotch, of " the two - streams. It is only, thirty miles to the sea, with plenty of . water except at one point, which has only fourteen feet. "Vessels of! deeper draught than this are lightered below that point until they can pass. LI notice a very con siderable amount, of - shipping at the various wharves. One thingj about the location of Vilmingtpn struck me as 1 quite sin- Ul.ll , UlIU, Lll-it IVitSjlUAl MIUUUgU KUP ntire country I around, so far as seen. k as flat as a plank, the city itself is situated upon a considerable hill, -de scending: to the river.its highest point bping probably forty feet above tidev ljiis give it fine drainage and keeps tae unpavea streets ary ana ciean. Wilmington has several newspapers, ofly one of which, the Daily Stab, his come under my special notice.and ill brightness is in full keeping with its name.'! 1 regret that the lateness oflthe hour and the briefness of mv stay did j not !admit of my t calling upon some of the newspaper; men, an also that I could not have pre paied'myself to give a more thorough description of this seemingly eharra- in I COTTON.

' . I'-, Office New York and Sottthisrt Railway Construction Co., i ' : t New York; Dec. 1 5, 1 88 1 . Col. J. JE: Peyton: j Dear Sir : As president of this company I have the pleasure of lay ing before you its proposal to the State of North Carolina,! as repre sented by his Excellency the Go vernor and commissioners. As the matter stands; to-day: I find the fol lowing facts : 1. The State owns a cohtrolliner interest in the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad Company1, which it proposes to sell tor 55,000. . - . 2. 1 here is a floating debt of about. say, $100,000, which must, of conrse, be paid off before this company can issue any bonds on the Grand Trunk Line. , I 3.- The ' sale by the State must be acquiesced in by the remaining stock holders of said road before it is binding. - : 4. Ihis company could! not, if it owned said road to-day, issue $1 of new bonds on the Trunk Line, nei ther could it transfer , or merere its interest into the Ohio and Carolina Railroad Company without the con sent of the Legislature. j " - "T 5. 1 his company is organized onhi with the intention of , building said Grand Trunk Line to connect "Wil mington with the . srreat northwest. and the Cape Fear and Yadkin Val ley Railroad is but one of the subor dinate links thereof. -I : ; ; v 6." The. building of such line is .'of inestimable value to the State and people of North Carolina. It cannot tail to add; a very large amount to the taxable values of all the property within a radius of twenty miles of the road, : as well as give such an im petus to all entep rises as ; will enable the people to pay such increased taxes and within five years place the credit of the btate on a par with the richest States of the Union. In view of these facts we ask, wills the State of North Carolsna grant all necessary facilities and legislation to our company ? I can see but one an swer. They will do all they can to aid ns. .-. - ; -.-. ,Therefore,' as President ol the New York & Southern Railroad and Tele graph Construction Company, I au thorize you to make the following proposal: . , . ,vt;'-:; 1. This company will purchase of the State of North Carolina all of its interest in the Cape Fear & Yadkin Valley Railroad Company for the sum of $55,000", payable sixty days after i the legislation to enable this company to retire its bonded indebt edness and to issue on its total line bonds ta the amount of $25,000 per mile, and said act shall have received the sanction of the Governor. i 2. This company will at the same time pay off fall the floating debt of the company. . 3. The State's : interest or the evi dence thereof is not to be delivered to us until the final consummation of the aforesaid payments, but this com pany must be authorized to go on with the surveys and building of the rest of the road as fast as they de sire, all the work it may- thus do be ing, of course, at the risk of the con tract and a ; guarantee of. its fulfilment.--' - : 7. : :' ' 4. The State guarantees to this company its! full proportion of the convict, labor under as favorable a contract as can be given, and exemp tion from taxation during the build ing of the road. ' J " ; ' V- 5. Also , grants full authority to consolidate the present road into the Ohio and Carolina Railroad, or such through tine to connect with the Northwestern States as one company shall organize. ; ; V ,! " :-v r ' ' , Finally, onr .position is this. " i "We desire to build a great trunk line from near Cincinnati to "Wilmington, N.'.C.v "Wo have secured already the .West Virginia line, with very valua ble and substantial assistance through that . State.1; Now if we can - secure the route through North Carolina on terms equally equitable to that State and ourselves, by the, purchase of the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad, as ? before proposed, then we are ready to go ahead witn : the, whole line, ! and for this purpose all we now ask is a contract subject to all the above terms.
