The reading room of the Brook - lyn Library was opened IatSun- day to the young men of that city, and it is believed that the experi ment of reforming the youth and mechanics of a great city by open ing a place of intellectual report to them for Sunday will be successful. Something in the same nature is wanted for llaleigh and every town 'of any considerable size In North Carolina. We might get much of good inorals from these yankces. Tiik Tarboro Snitherner is so far reconstructed as to employ a negro printer, and the rcort comes that the Democratic sentiment of Edge combe county is greatly shocked thereat. Whose business is it to regulate the color of the Southerner's em ployees? In this case as in all other offices in the State the Southerner has a boy employed about the office, ami . being smart he has picked up the art"of type setting, and occasionally helps out the paper. Xevt B erne and Beaufort may take heart at any prospect of an ear)y completion of the Western XoKh Carolina Railroad, for with that event begins the first real pros perity for these port?.

Laws of Congress. Attention is called to the following Laws, passed at the last session of the Forty-Second Congress, com mencing with chapter l, and to be continued from day to day until they are completed. The following appear in this issue : Chap. 56. An Act making appropria tions tosupp'Tdcficienciefliu the appro priations tor the service of the govern ment, Ac. The Raleigh News in its anxiety to find a loop-holeout of the increase-back-salary-grab business for Ran som, Rogers, Waddell, Leach, Sho bcr and Harper has made the as tonishing discovery, with the aid of a Radical salary-grabber, that, the bill could not' have become a law without the signature of the Presi dent! Could it have become a law with out the votes and influence of these Democratic friends of the Netcs f Was the President to defeat the whole appropriation legislation of Congress by refusing to sign the general appropriation bill kept back on purpose to the very last of the session ? This double back-action-salary- graD was baa enough, in all con science, but any attempt to give it a party significance is simply tin; contemptible in politics. The Government and the Rail Roads. Discussion is about to open in earnest in favor of the general gov ernment assuming the ownership and control of all the Railroads in the United States. One cannot fail to see in this a proposition to free the country of the endless curse of Railroad law suits and contests between lines, while in government hands the system wou!d expand and develop Immeasurably over the present sys tem but yet in its infancy. We should hear - ; ' The Nominations, ft Oor democratic friends have nlmina ted fonr aldermen, Messrs. I. B. Grain ger, Roger Moore, S. R. Fishbl$te and A. Adrian. Of these. Col. Moore is a native of this State and the others are from over the sea. This is pretty good from a party that oppotw s Nortbef p men pn geographical grounds. Such a,' nom ination would have been 'in keeping with the Republican party, which be lieves in . the largest liberty, bu it is rather surprising than otherwise in so exclusive a party as the one making the nominations. i We have no objection, personally, to any of the gentlemen named jon the ticket, except that they are democrats, and if we must have democrats) in the Board, we are satisfied with thefj nom inations. Still they are not in keeping with the teachings of that party Claim ing all the wealth, Ac. Wilifcngton Post. The above is not a bad illustra tion of the party of Conservative Democracy and Liberal-Radiqian.sni. It is in perfect keeping with the conduct of that party whicfewent into the last national caniiajgn for "free trade" but carefully avoided the tariff issue ; which wen iri de nouncing Radicalism but supported the leading Apostle of all tllsms ever heard of except, perhaps, that peculiar Democratic teney Ku Kluxism. These latter-day )emo crats strain at gnats but shallow camels. They can't go the .Ameri can eagle, but they readily take the British lion, so to speak. : Did the world ever furnislta par allel to the painful pretensions and ridiculous professions of these her editary upstarts olan effet'arris tocracy ? Is there anywhere else men to afford such a satire on man kind ? Politically speaking! a por tion of the Southern people make up an unapproachable parody on the human family. , A Line of Clippers from Wil mington to Liverpool. and, as if to further aggrieve, the Department at Washington has not always been as careful in its selec tion of agents as the dignity of the service and the objects of good gov ernment required. The Union and Banner which gives the above flattering recom mendation to Captain Gavett is a Democratic paper, and the inference Is therefore strong that he is enti tled to all that has been said for him by that paper. The Bra welcomes Captain Ga vett to this field of public labor, and trusts that it may always be able to notice him in the sam" complimen tary strain that characterizes its Dein.-ratic contemporary, for sus tain incompetent and unworthy of ficers, and back the conduct of men wanting in official dignity, moral character and personal integrity, it will not. The Republican party demands proper conduct at the hands of government officials, and journalism falls below the standard of Republican requirements that does not speak out plainly and freely on official misconduct, per-, sonal or political friends, to the con trary, notwithstanding. and bring it home instead of keep ing it perpetually out of our reach, competing tvith, oppressing and drying us up, as it is doing. If the Raleigh News has set itself up here to build up Northern man ufacturing with North Carolina money it will find very little favor in the eyes of the working patriotic people of North Carolina, and it will deserveno favor at the hands of our people. Such a line of policy is not in keeping with the reasons the Neves assigned fcr opposing the opening of the gauge cf the North Carolina Railroad.

Attention is invited to a very able article from the New York Times on the subject.

The opening of the Chesepeake and Ohio Railroad has made Wil mington one of the objective joints ' gencies, from thedai. irom Cincinnati, and with the com pletion of the Wilmington,-- Char lotte and Rutherford and the Wes tern Nortli Carolina Railroads. Wilmington will be brought within five hundred and twenty miles of Cincinnati, less than a day's run. With the completion of these im portant works, Wilmington will be oneol the nearest .deep-water points connected with the great Northwest by rail, and so the establishment of this line of fast sailing ships is Just in time for a trade that is yet to make Wilmington one of the first seaport towns along the South At lantic coast. Already does Wilmington ship abroad, direct, more naval stores than any other port in the United States, and altogether the prpgress, present development and assured future commercial prosperity' of Wilmington is such that no North Carolinian can look without pride, gratifiiation and hope on the heroic little Cape Fear City, the mother of our system of internal improve ments, though a much neglected j child of North Carolina. 1 lie is an ultra republican an ex tremist in regard to the rights of the people a true radical. Raleigh Senti nel. So, after all, an ultra Republi cana true Radical, is only " an ex tremist in regard to the rights of the people." Mark the language. The rights of the people. For a good many years the public ear has been used to the terms Had ical and Radicalism, but until the present no satisfactory meaning has been given to these expressions of supposed awful and dangerous, not to say disreputable, import. It was reserved for a leadi ng and ac knowledged organ of the Conservative-Democratic party to deciare the meaning give the breadth scope and full significance of Radical ism, and it has done it in a manner perfectly satisfactory to every one whoe political conduct and party affiliation has won the distinctive term of peiliar reprobation Radioed. In that view in which the Sentinel has so kindly and correctly placed the Radicals before its readers and the public, the Era is bound to de clare that Radicalism is, of all things, the thing for the South, of all sections. Of all the people of the world those of the South are in a condition to appreciate and desire the fullest " rights of the people." Passing through four years of most disastrous and exhaustive war, they immediately fell under the re striction of the military rule of the United States, only to encounter in turn the neces.sarily harsh measures of Reconstruction. And at no time, from the beginning of the war in 1801 down to the present day have the people of the South been entire ly free from til? dominion of mili tary power. The conduct of the civil service of the general government in the en forcement of the laws of the United States, and the assessment and col lection of the National revenues, weighs all others. If, however, the work; can be done by the abler hands into which it has fallen without the sale and comparative sacrifice ot the State's interest, and that of the individual private stock holders, then that is better, and so let it be done ; but by all means let some1 steps betaken looking to the completion of the Road and not keep it tied up in the Supreme Court of the United States for five years. In this connection attention is in vited to articles from the Statesville American and Asheviile Pioneer. Colored Temperance ii Concord. From Asheviile Pioneer. The New Receiver Win. A. Smith.

In i the mean time the appeal in regard to the validity of the foreclosure of the mortgage bonds and sale of the road, authorized by the Federal Court held at this place last Fall, will be taken to the Supreme Court of the United States. - t As a decision in the matter in this last tribunal of appeal is not likely to be rendered for several years, those who kno-v the character of the recent appointee for indomita ble enterprise and restless energy, deem it impossible for him to re main a mere passive recipient of the income of a broken line of mad, when the resources are within his reach to complete this great, but much neglected public work. It is even now whispered that he is con templating measures for this pur pose, and will begin track laying to Malone's store in a few davs. If so. who doubts the result? Whoever knew Billy Smith to fail? His record proves that there is no such word to be found in his lexicon. Let him but once assure the oeoDle of the West, who have been so grossly outraged in their railroad matters, that he will bend his en ergies to the task of completing the same, encompassed as it is by every conceivable obstacle, and thev may rest assured that it will be done; that the thundering of the locomotive through our mountain gorge and the nerve-tingling bell of the engineer at every station, will be sounds not unfamiliar. Our people want the road. They care-little for political differences, or personal quarrels, or the squabble among the vultures after they have been despoiled.

I noticed in your paper a Temperance Conven tion called at New Berne. I would like to suggest to the honorable party that they would call it nearer the center of the State. The West would like to be represented in that Convention. If it was called to meet in Raleigh about the middle of June many of the Western socie ties would send up their delegates. N. L. J.

But why have the factory located in Baltimore? Why not at Newbern, Wilmington, or some of the interior cities or towns? Why carry capital out of the State to manufacture for the State? Five reasons are assigned in the prospectus, all of which we think untenable. The didereTtc of rents, at Wilmington for instance, would equal, if not exceed, the freight by steamer on the crude goods, and the " back freight " on orders, would not be incurred as the proposers seem to think would be the case if the factory is located at Raleigh or Greensboro.

Hunter, E.sq., Raleigh, N.C Jy Dear Sir: You no doubt have seen before this in the newspapers a call for a Temperance Convention of colored persons, to assemble in the city of New-Berne, N. C, the first Wednesday in June, for the purpose of consulting together for our common -good and mutual benefit, signed by myself and others interested in the moral elevation of our race and people. Believing that you are equally interested in the good work, I have taken the liberty this communication through the public press, for a two j fold purpose ; first, to invoke your j aid and influence in the great and j good work of waging a war against "king alcohol" and the use of spirituous, liquors as a beverage among our people in the old North State ; second, that our colored breten in North Carolina, and the ; public in general, might see that we I are using every honorable means at i our command " to lift up those who kire sunk low in the scale of human . degradation, and if possible to re ; &re them to their' family, friends : and society, as well as to save the young, pure and virtuous from ever falling into the snares of the temp ter," for the enemy with which we have to contend is crafty and pow erful, and to resist such a foe suc cessfully will require our mightiest efforts, for all have felt his power, or suffered more or less from his destructive influences. In every walk of life, intemperance, like an undying worm, has gnawed at the vitals and corrupted the life-blood of the fairest, ablest and purest of we aim to unite all moral Meeting higher standard of civilization and citizenship to which we mu.st attain If wti would enjoy in its full sense the blessings and privileges of free men of this vast Republic. 'Virtue, sobriety, morality and solid intelli gence' aro the ground-work the grand palladium of all christian government and individual pros perity. They must be possessed in an eminent degree by any people who! would be prosperous and hap py. To these the ballot is a mere tributary ; without them it is pow erless for but little, if any, good. I am persuaded that this good work could not have commenced: in a more propitious time than the pre sent. . Now that political hostilities are j rapidly subsiding; now that ourftatus as citizens of the Republic has 'jbeen definitely ascertained and fixea beyond revocation or even peradventure, to what subject could we turn our attention of more vital importance to ourselves andthe country than the great reform iftJNv waging for the upbuilding and fos tering of sentiments of sobriety, economy, industry and education ! Such principles and qualities must constitute us, if we are ever to b&, a contented and happy people. By all means, say Iv let the Convention be held. Much good can be accom plished if in no other way than by an interchangeof views and opinions on subjects affecting .so deeply our national destiny. Glad am I to .see that yourself and other leading gentlemen, whose names I find to the call, are not insensible to an interest so essential to tho future glory of our State and people. I would to Uocl that all the loading spirits among the colored people could, as you have, see the necesity of, and come forward with the same indefatigable zeal and courage with whicii they have battled so fiercely in tho field of 'politics, and assist in pushing forward to a resplendent completion a ; reform so richly fraught with benedictions of peace, love and happiness to every hearth stone. I am persuaded that many of those whom we have opposed in politics will aid us most cheerfully in this good work. Indeed, many of the journals of both parties are calling out more loudly than we ourselves for the inauguration of this reform among us. From the depth of my heart I do thank them for so encouraging a manifestation of that genuine sympathy which has ever, does jiow, and will ever exist among all the true sons of our "good old North State." You will allow me to suggest that education, economy and industry, are subjects which might vcrv ap propriately be discussed at the Con vention, and will, I doubt not, re ceive a due share of its attention. They go hand in hand with Temp erance. I shall lay the call before our Lodge at its next meeting, and I trust that your Lodge will assist u. in having a number of circulars containing the call stricken off for general distribution among our brethren of the' other Lodges and societies throughout the State. Reassuring you that I shall relax no effort that will tend in tho least to the successful completion of our grand object, j I am yours for the cause, CifAS. N. Hunter.

His tour is .that of a i into a cocked hat cation of the concern in Baltimore. In advocating the establishment of this "foreign" and "alien1" concern with "home" capital, the News gives the following excellent reasons why the thing should be located in this State. Says the News : "We have already in this State "one Guano Company, the Navas "sa, of Wilmington, which we un derstand has more orders than it "can supply. Handsome dividends "have been declared by the Na "vassa, dc" Now, if we have a successful en terprise of this sort already in the State, f hy not follow the bent of plain, practical common sense and establish another?, Locate it alon"- - - side of the .Navassa works, if desir able, and complete the orders the Navassa cannot fill. Thearcrument mac we must go to Baltimore for facilities and for economy sake does not hold good if the statement of the News relative to the Navassa is true. That Company has the fa cilities for manufacturing a cheap, competitive fertilizer or the farmers would not over-run it with orders nor would it declare "handsome dividends." We want, of all things, manufac turing enterprises in North Caro lina, but If the little capital we nave Is to be sent to erect great works in other States then our want is not likely to be supplied. Millions of North Carolina money is this day , employed in the great Northwest developing and building up that magnificent section, and it ought to be the policy of our jour nals and the direction of public sen timent to withdraw that canital ! The new Manager and Receiver of this Road, Hon. W.A.Smith, enters upon his duties a.s supreme manager of the line with the full tide of public sentiment setting in his favor. Known of all to be one of the most successful and enter prising railroad men of the State, the people of Western North Caro lina see in him just the man thev should have had twenty years ago tor the building of railroads through their section. Whatever an active, i intelligent, persevering, thorough- j going man could possibly accoin- i plish under the circumstances, the people along the line of the Wes tern North Carolina Railroad may rest a.ssured Major Smith will do for them. It has been given out that Major Smith will, if possible, aid in some effort to extricate the road from its present embarrassing position, re lieve the obligations resting upon it, and by a new mortgage, or the formation of a new company, push the work on to completion. The completion of the road should have always been the first great object in view, and any effort that looks to that end now ought to secure the countenance, aid and support of every one wno feels an interest in the welfare, development and pro gress of Western North Carolina. The Southern Railway Security Company was anxious to have this line of road completed, and to that end they were ready to undertake the work ; but it has been the con stant assertion of the managers of that corporation that they preferred that the State or some other Com pany, not hostile to them, should open up the line. As the principal and almost only creditors of the road, and holding a majority of the private stock therein, they are understood to be perfectly 'Willing to, and anxious for any arrangement that will secure to them their money and the com pletion of the road at one and the same time, for they must have an outlet from the Tennessee system of roads, through Western North Carolina. The advantages that would accrue to the State through the completion of this road with the preservation of her stock, subject only to a mort gage, are innumerable, and if Major omitn can accomplish such an end then is he, beyond dispute.not only the greatest Railroad manager, but he will prove, himself the first pub lic benefactor in the State. - The Era has urged the sale of tho Road as a step precedent to its com pletion,, for that consideration out- in tms matter undertaken a great re- " , " , vcertain of our , exchanges, leading ojiu..,5iuimj , uui ins Kiiunii eiieigy , ' ine imune lO and practical experience inspires ! grown old with the deformity of puuiie connuence ana nope lor sue j ignorance and want : beauty clothed POCC If trio frnnK!io o f a 1 : 1 7 " ioad ufoh n U2 ! with ad ame, and manhood ceased, they are at least, under some j shom of its glory, " each repeating contrwl, and will not be so formid-; daily the sad warning of the past aoieio Aiajor &imtn, as tftey were j saying beware of these strong ins uitruvefssors in oinff a -r , ' iir ii.: " .nr iilj in'i.r nntrn -v-v breathing time annears to be afford ed.

A little longer, ; and the welcome sound of the whis tle will fall upon their delighted ears among the hills and vallies of the West, from Buncombe to Cher okee. We learn that Major Smi th, found tne roaa in a much better condition than he expected, and that he is of opinion, the present company ean build it quite as easily as for it to pass into other hands, for that pur pose. Indeed, it is strange ifthey cannot, when more than three fourths of it is already finished, 120 miles, and much of the balance is in a state of forwardness. When the road shall reach Asheviile, only 25 miles from Old Fort, half of which is completed, it then becomes a trunk-line, 150 miles long, and will command a business sufficient to pay running expenses and vield a dividend, were it thereto stop. We learn that $350,000 or less will free the road of present difficulties, and surely tnat sum can be obtained, and then with first mortgage bonds, issued as wanted, the road can be extended. Sould the road be sold and pass into other hands.it will be managed and extended, if extended at all, of which there may be some doubt, in the manner indicated above by issuing mortgage bonds upon the road to raise money, and this can be done by the State and present stockholders as well. In our .opinion, united and harmo nious action, and sinking of faction, is what is now necessary to save the road to the State and present com pany and extend it successfully and profitably. drinks."
