To-day we notice at the depot of the Raleigh & Gaston Railroad a Portable Engine of twenty-five horse power and patent Shingle Machine, consigned to Mr. A. T. Page, of Cary. It will be in operation in alew days, and we would advise those contempla ting the purchase of Engines and Saw Mills to examine this Engine and call on Mr. W. C.

According to adjournment, the Commission of Ar bitration in the suit agaiast the road, met yesterday in the Executive office. We were not able to get the full par ticulars. We understand the Commis sioners requested W. II.

The Commission adjourned to meet in this city on the 13th of next month, when the affairs of the Company will undergo al thorough and searching in vestigation, and all the parties interest ed in the pending suit will be invited to be present. P. S. Since the above was put in type we have obtained the full pro ceedings of the meeting, which are the same in substance as the above with the exception of the adoption of a resolution offered by Judge Manly, authorizing Governor Caldwell, the Chairman of the Commission, to advertise the time ot the next meet ing, and that he invite propositions from any party or parties for the pur chase and completion of the road, or. other proposals connected with the ob. jects of the General Assembly.

(2) A pure Whiskey 1 stimulant, Century "Down the Raleigh & Gaston Road." Under the above caption ap pears an interesting article in the last issue of the Hillsboro Recorder, which we take the liberty of copying into our columns. It is from the pen of. the editor of that paper, J. S. Cameron, Esq., who is one of the best informed gentlemen in this State. The following is the article : "From Raleigh to Weldon, the coun try along this road exhibits the most striking and gratifying marks of im provement. Every Station is a growing village, the strongest evidence of the thrift ihess of the country of which it is the centre. Forestville, the first one of importance, now contains fifteen or twenty Well built and neatly improved dwellings, and four or five stores. Here, as elsewhere on the road, the quantities of guano and uther fertilizers is some what amazing. The platforms of the ditierent ststion houses filled with it, and unloaded cars standing at every depot, or filling up every freight train. Tiie cotton mania is raging, and it is to be feared that the planter is running into extremes. The price of cotton this season has been more uniformly main taineel than it is likely to be again for years, and it has stimulated an in creased production, and a much larger crop than the present must result iu a decline. As the fertilizers are bought npon the basis of the next crop, a di minished price must entail loss. The tobacco planter does not incur so much risk.- . . Wake Forest, next below Forestville, has greatly improved. The college grounds have been enclosed, broken up, laid down to grass, and embellished with shrubbery, and walks and drives, and, even at this season, are attractive to the eye. The houses of the Profess ors and others are in fine condition, fences, grounds and shrubbery, all well kept, and in the general air of taste and beauty, the student must find much to solace htm amid the otherwise weary solitude of the locality. Franklinton has almost ripened into a town, and with its many new and freshly painted houses, presents a lively appearance. Kittrellsis no longer simply a getting off place for visitors to the springs. It has pretensions of its own. It is ambi tious of streets, and is actually laid off with regularity. Much building is going on. It has a fine and very showy hotel, which is in striking contrast to the old style of such institutions in North Carolina. Henderson i3 almost completely re built, lew vestiges of the fire being visi ble l'roni the train. The number of per sons around the depot give evidence of quite a large population. Henderson is looming up as a Tobacco Market,a3 well as a Manufacturing point, and is also turrounded by a Cotton growing re gion, aud bids fair to be quite a large place. "' . : Ridgeway is one of the most interest ing points, because Lere is one ot the most striking exhibitions of Northern colonizaticn. Nearly all the lands have been bought up by Northern men, and they are carrying out their views un trammelled by old forms, or local oppo sition. The example they set might be advantageously followed by our people. They seemed to have formed a proper estimate of soil, climate and locality, and they are pushing them with the ut most energy. A country which a few years ago was given up to old rielels, or Unthrifty tillage, is now divested of all its repulsive leatures. Excellent fences surround the extensive vineyards and more extensive orchards. Avenues are laid off through the woods, handsome houses meet the eye in every direction, anel a very ele- ant hotel stands at the road side. Fruit raising seems to be the specialty of occupation, and the peach orchards are the largest south of Delaware. They have been in bearing about two years. One vineyard lies along the railroad, containing apparently aoout o acres, principally of the Concord grape. It has no picturesque appearance at pres ent, with its long row3 of naked slakes, aud leafless vines, but it is no doubt agreeable to the eye at another season. The grapes are uesigned tor market in the iresh state, though Mr. Labiaux is about reviving the olt repeated ab or tive experiment to cultivate the foreign " grape tor the production of wine. The colony, for so it may be called, has other branches of industry. They re cently lost by fire a spoke and handle factory, whicn involved a loss or $ou, 003. "The factory will be rebuilt. They have also a dessicating establishment for the preparation of fruits and vege tables, which will be actively employed in the proper season. Below Ridgeway, thecountry general ly is much improved since the war, and many imigrants have become purchasers and permanent settlers. The State could welcome thousands more ot the same class, ami every encouragement should be held out to them. Indepen dent ot the direct benefit of such acces sion, our own people would be improved by competition, by example by the infusion of new ideas. We would like to say more, but have already extended our notice to an un reasonable length. -"..We owe a remark of commendation to the Raleigh and Gastwn Road, which has opened up thee facilities, and which, under the management ot its public spirited Presi dent, has done so much tor the State. It is now a little rough, from the pro longed winter season, but otherwise in good order, as the perfect punctuality of its passenger trains at high rate of sot ed, attests. The freight business is heavy, and well managed,. It may be said.. with truththat on no road in the South are the station houses moiecapa cious; or more attractively built. This latter point is one too much disregarded, since it is through the eye that the traveller judges a country aud its instil tutions, as evidence of thrift or ttje re verse, make their corresponding impres- sions. The funeral of Capt. Diramock took place from St. James church, Richmond, Va , on Tuesday a'teruoon. Venders of sewing machines are now calling themselves " health agents." ' . Another Reminiscence. Irj our allusion Wednesday to the old building adjoining the Yarborough House, which is now being torn down, we omitted, to mention the fact, that some forty years ago the celebrated P. T. Bam urn exhibited his menagerie in it, which consisted of one huge black bear. The bear was a sight to the natives, and crowds flocked to have-a peep at Bruin, and P. T. B. went away with his pockets lined with the money of Raleigh won der loving citizens. This little reminis cence, trifling as it may seem, has a moral, and one too which young men might study with profit. It.f hows what attention to business and perseverance will do. The bear then was Barnum's stock in trade, tut years later we find him a millionaire, and the owner of palatial structures in large cities. Then itcost Barnum but a very few dollars per day to give his exhibitions, now their daily cost amounts to -thousands. Though the fire fiend has several times destroyed his magnificent build ing and consumed his curiosities, animals, &c., yet by perseverance and energy in the business he has adopted, he is to-day a wealthy and prosperous man. The young mechanics, merchants, lawyers, &c, in our midst can achieve success in their avocations by a display of the same qualities. Meeting of the Board of County Commissioners. Yesterday the Board of County Commissioners held an ad journed meetinginjthis city. A.11 of the Commissioners were present. C M. Davis was relieved from paying poll tax and working on public ro'ads on account of physical disability. Hin ton Stephens was relieved of the same on the same account. The account of S. F.

The Board adjourned to meet Mon day next to levy the county tax. Gen. Ducort,who commanded at Sedan, and at Paris during the siege, is said to have recently stated that he consid ered the Republic a failure; that the only safety of France was in the restor ation of a monarchy or an empire ; that she must fight again, and that in his opinion Presiileut Thiers would attempt to prolong his.term until his death. "How is it," asked an enthusiastic English nobleman of a Polish refugee of high rank, "that 'you regafd your country's misfortune with such stoica indifference?"

I he (Japtain seems overwhelm ed with sorrow. He said to a reporter : "To think that while hundreds of men were saved every woman should have perished it is horrible. If I had been able to save even one woman I could bear the disaster, but to lose all It is terrible, terrible." He seems to fully realize that the world will hold him to strict account. The latest accounts report four hun- dreel and thirteen saved and five bun died and sixty lost, including three hundred and ntty women and children. The cargo was generally fashionable dry goodj valued at a half million dollars. Generals Belknap, Sheridan and Meyer left in a St. Louis palace car for Houston, Texas, and from whence in ambulance for the Rio Grande.

The heavy sea which con stantly poured over the vessel and filled her, preventing tuem from reaching the eleck. Some of the women who showed remarkable presence of mnd, and ap preciation of the awful situation only reached the decic to be washed into the sea and drowned. Soon after six men on shore wrote on a black board, "Cheer up. boats are com ing to your assistance." The announce ment was responded to by hearty cheers from the ship. After half an hour of awfui suspense, men were seen on the Island carrying a boat over the rocks, and soon it was launched, and took off Luu.. lnat Lean's Irnm iht; out laying rock. v hue rescuing these men, Uapt Williams and the passengers called loudly to the crew ot the boat to come to the ship and' take them off first, as they were in most imminent dange the Captain saying, "I will srive $500 for every boat load rescued."
