T'i i iv road which is designed to run
fro u Cincinnati to Chattanooga, a dis
t.ifiiv of U3G milt; is of a good deal of
intTf-!c to WilmiDgton. If completed
and our connections made over the
mountains it will be the, shortest line
to Cincinnati and the northwest, plac
ing our city less than GOO miles from the
latter place.' - The people of Cincinnati
lately, as provided by act of the Legis
lature of Ohio, voted on the question of
indorsing $2,000,000 of their city bonds
for thrj benefit of this road, in addition
t those already issuetl. They voted
by a majority of a little more than 200
to n jt-ct the proposition. But a new"
act ...has, been introducel' into the legis

is probable that tha question will be

Kvery word expressed by the Xation-
ul Rcimblican is true. North Carolina
is a Republican fitato by twenty-flve

the IVmocrats carried it in 1876 was

The independent raid which Mont

know anything about the Blairs, know
that they are never anybody's imple

flag. Whonauy ouo of them takes a
particular street as ho comes from
breakfast, it means, something. The
father, old L. V came nearer ruling
Andrew Jackson than any other person
ever did. When Lincoln became Tresi

take Montgomery into his Cabinet. His
heels were -on the tables of Andrew
Johnson's ante-room until he took the
cars for Orvcoville. Frank, with all

A profound gloom was spread over the
city on Wednesday by the announce
ment of the death of the Hon. William
A. Wright. He was the third son of
the late Hon. Joshua G. , Wright, an
emiuent man of his time, and his" an
cestors were ot the earliest settlers on the
Cape Fear. He waa born in this city
on March the 1st, 1807. He graduated
at the University, and at an early age
entered the practice of law in this city
and has pursued it during his long And
useful life. He has held but few offi
cial stations and none which were
sought by him. He was made a Direc
tor in the Wilmington &WeIdon Rail
road at its chartering in 1842, and re
gained as such, as well as its attorney,
to the day of his death, and was beyoNi.
a doubt the oldest .railroad Director in
continual service on the cqntinent of
North America. His superiority as a
safe legal adviser in all matters relating
ti corporate bodies was at corded to
hiui by all. He was also a m in of rare
acquirements in general law and in let
ters. 1 Unheralded and unexpectedly he
passed to his last rest as quietly as he
had lived, leaving behind him the re
cord of a life which might well be imi
tated by others whom he has left behind,
aod a memory which will long be cher-
ished iu the
hearts of those who have
.his kindness of manner
experienced
aud his charms of converse, and that
courteous urbanity which was never
absent from his high bearing.

The committee are making extensive
