Logan, Judge of the Superior Court, Ninth Judicial District of this State.has issued an order restraining and enjoin ing the commissioners from selling the Wilmington, Charlotte aud Rutherford Railroad, now advertised to be sold April 10th, under a decree of the Supe rior Court of New Hanover county. Childs claims to be a stockholder of one hundred shares in the road, and the order of injunction on his complaint sets a hearing at Cleaveland, Rutherford county, for April 11th, onedaj- after the appointed sale. So here is another hitch, and no immediate prospect for the completion of the much desired road from Wilmington tothemounta.ns and the far West. Davenport Female College. The authorized Agent, Rev. T. J. Gat tis, is at present in our city, canvassing in the interest of this institution. We commend Mr. Gattis and the cause he represents to the favor of our people. Davenport College is the property of the North Carolina Conference, and richly deserves aid from our people. The prop erty is worth about $25,000. It has never received from the State at large, or the North Carolina Conference, a dollar, ex cept what has been collected by the Agent the present year. There are also some improvements greatly needed on the building, as well as refurnishing, and new apparatus. Thus far the Agent has met with encouraging success, and we trust the good people of Raleigh will not fall lebind other places of much smaller population and far less means, in their contributions. The necessity for this appeal grows out of the fact that General Stoneman's men, at the close of the late war, were quartered in the Col lege building, greatly damaged them, and destroyed nearly all the furniture, with the apparatus. This Institution is located in the town of Lenoir, Caldwell county. Who built Sclma ? ; BY T. C. K. Just after the war a yankee named Sharp came into this State, and stop ping four miles from Smithfield, in Johnston county, ho located. This yan kee had enterprise. He looked around and was struck with the idea that it was a good place to build a town. He had money and he forthwith commenc ed the building. The four miles good road that the people now travel to and from Smithfield, this man employed tho hands and had cut. He then paid for moving the present depot ware house, that was then one mile further up the road, down to the spot he had selected for the town, and he called the plaee Selma. Other persons commenc ed building and Selma is now a busy little manufacturing place, and full of steam mills and distilleries. But what became of Sharp ? lie sunk eight thou sand dollars at building his town, and has moved home with his family, a poorer and a wiser man. But just see what he left behind him! And who thinks of it once? And who cares whether Sharp now bo living in a pal ace or a pauper in a poor honse ? I Dr. Lrw.!iARTijf, pf Beaufort, has been appo nted Special Traveling North Carolina Home Agent for the rire Insurance! and State Life Insurance North Carolina Companies, and will canvass tlfd Middle land Western Counties of thefState. -The Era would recommend Dri Martin to all the peo ple with whom jbe may come in contact, and as he goes on a mission of home in terest, home enterprise and the encour agement and establishment of home in stitutions, the people of Nrrth Carolina will surely sustain and .welcome him.

I The Wilmington Post Is pleased to chr jtablisbmfnt of a real I estate and loan association in Wilming- ton, a corporation of live men, who will : a 4 loan money at moderate! rates on real estate and collaterals. Tbe Post says truly : We highly approve of all these kind of institutions ; they aid the work ing man, the small capitalist, and others struggling with limited i means. We need more economy and tprift in North Carolina. Toq nuch money is spent; too little saved It is by j such associa tions that communities are made rich and independent.

Thirty men have walked around and sung and taken the pledge to the Friends of Temperance. Sanford has a debating society. Dr. Newby, town doctor, is the president. Every Wed nesday night is the time. JButlhey were unfile to rise up and make a few remarks to-night, as several of the members had gone to Jonesboro to hear a preacher preach. I stood out in the cold with a small group of members until it was unanimously ascer tained that there'd be noj meeting. The question to-night was, " Which has been more beneficial to mankind, the mariner's compass or the art of printing ?" A Cana dian ; I NAMED SNOWBALL is with the firm of Creen fc Nesbit and they have bought the Ore Hill property 20 miles above here in Chatham county. The sup ply of Iron is perfectly Inexhaustible. The Ore Hill is a large hill C0Q feet above the level and they have begun digging the Iron out at the foot of the hill. They furnace five ot six tons per day and ship it to Rich mond, i i r THE EOYPT COAL IINES are also 7 miles from here in Chatham coun ty. This property was originally owned by old Peter Evans. In 1851 be sold it to Brooks Harris for fifteen thousand dollars and gave him ten years to pay for It-1 lie paid for it before he gathered his first crop and sold it to a northern company for thirty thousand dollars. Egypt is now In the possession of an old bachelor' named Derbyshire who will no more sell a foot of It than he will let a woman comb his hair. i, GUILFORD HAY AT SAnFOKD. A Guilford man made a sad mistake. He heard hay was worth two .'dollars at San ford. he packed two cats, fifteen thou sand pounds, with hay, and started from McLeansville post-haste for Sanford. He got hereand found hay only one dollar. So he kept on to Fayetteville and Is there now. But listen to his freights: He paid $25 freight to Cary and $30 front Cary here, and then $ 25 more from here to Fayetteville, be sides his own fare and expenses. " HERE'S A TOMBSTOXE," said Dr. Newby, as we were Returning from the debating society, which lidn't meet on account of some of the ; members having walked two miles down the Railroad to hear a deaf and dumb preacher preach by signs at Jonesboro, "Here Is a tombstone," said h e, as we stumbled across the "platform of the depot, "of the heaviest man ever was in Moore county. His name Was Wilcox, and he died In 1S57, and he weighed four hun dred pounds." We all then went Into the agent's room who had conie down to see about a big white female dog named Gaston that had the mange and was locked up in the office, and w went In and all recom mended something to cure he mange, the doctor declaring Jbluestone mighty good. The agent said; "That dog, 'gentlemen, has had fifty-five purples, five litters, with ele ven every time. I watched iher one day de liberately take up two' of the weakest pup pies that couldn't live, andi she took them to the branch and held each one's heud under the water tll he was drowned and then took them boljh back and put them in her bed. I had twojsplendid'puppies of her, one named Hawkins and the other An drews, but they diefl." '. $ whos?tiie heir ? Sanford Is smartly excited pver the recent death of a Mr. darken Texai who has died leaving 50,000 dollars In gold and several thousand acres of land to three heirs said to be In Chatham and Moored counties.
