The General Assembly of North (fJarolina is now -in session, hav ing convenea at ie estate uapi ttol yesterday, aud is naturally at tracting the attention of our people, who are looking to their Legislators for some relief from the "hard times." . , iUUb MlilltJ bXlUlt; 5 muvu vuuv -the Legislature can do for their re lief, yet with all that they can do, ere will be much disappointment and gruniblicg at their action, for really they will not be able to do all 4hat the people demand. We there fore warn our readers in advance, -not to expect too much at their hands, for the body politic is now .-somewhat in the condition of the hu man body when slowlv recovering froia wme dangerous illness, and we must not have two much "doctoring, but by kindly treatment, close atten- tion to business, simple diet, alld strict economy endeavor o build ud strict economy, endeavoi o build up the enfeebled system and restore a .healthy tone to ihe body politic. As .our Legislature meets only once in 1'0 years and can in .oasdavs, there ,v !l be no time for windy Epeeches or "bun-, cjmbe" resolutions, but the Members should devote their whole time and ttaUontothecarefuleonsideraUoni oi sncn measures as will best pro-1 - mote the interests of our people. ' The eyss of the people are upon I them, closely watching their every j . II Til ... . . . m action, ana tney win De Held to a atrict accountability. The most im portant questions which are likely to A.X. -Li i. r a l t t iuu aiujuiiun oi ina jjODlsia- turc, are the Public Debt, the Public i enools, tne protection of Sheep ; Husbandry, the Xo-Fence Law, and j t il. i mi . . . iij-ciuuers uj give lueir most Berioua consideration to these ques-; tions, and take such action as will best promote the time interest of our .beloyed old State. in n ri Hiiii liiiiiix "We know rectly affectin ham county portacce of their public roads n-n l attention o l;llu mis mauer io ineir attention lust 4 "v 11. . ii i ii now for three reasons, viz: First, be-! cause the roads are now probably iu as bad a condition as. they ever can be, and the evil therefore bein" pres-1 . , , ., or ent and daily realized, our words may have more effect and be better appreciated than at any other time; Second, becanse the Legislature is now in aeasion. und if nnr nAn ! - L eeds amendment (as many think) j ,. . raising, or crowing sheen or onts 'occurreu mini we reached tne snb- gthe people of Chat-; is illst about as well adnted to nn were haikd by that clever and hos- , or one of greater im-1 enternrise of this kind us T hove ever pitable gentleman, Col.

We would ; ilirect their attention to Section 15 i of the Road-Lftw n wm,,j I 01 the Itoad-J,aw, as published m 1 " " " ' IL-Jl DILLU" , another column of this paper, and; Ask them to carefully read the same, bo that they may fully know what is & "lawful road." If the law is too strict, and re quires too much of an overseer, it is rot the fault of the Grand Juror, and it is none the less his duty to indict any overseer who does not comply with its requirements. If it is a bad law, it should be repealed, and the best way to have it repealed is to enforce it We think that the entire system of working our roads should be changed (of which we will speai hereafter), but while the law Btmds as it does, it should be en forced, and by enforcing it, its harsh ness and defects will become so odi ous to all, as to render its amend ment certain. The present law is either good or bad; if good let it be forced, and if bad let it be repealed, but do not let it remain a dead letter and a ghm The present wretchea, and almost impassable condition of our roads is the best proof that our road law' is either defective and wrong in princi ple, or is not enforced, and we rath er think that it is both. It certainly does seem an unjust hardship on an overseer, to expect him to comply with all the requirements of the law as it now reads, and with the means at his command that most of them have. Bat while this ia true, yet our overseers as a class can make our roads better than they are, They can at least fill up holes in the roads, and can pnt pp sign boards and mile posts as required by Sections 19 and 21 of the "Ifaatf aw" published plsewhere, j Correspondence.

Tins is what I call "retrenchment aa Via price paid for examining lunatics was $5 00. I think the present Board of County Commissioners are the right men in the right place. I see also, in the Reocbp, of the 12th of December, that jail fees have been reduced to 30 cents a day for each prisoner; and that purchasing agent for the poor house is allowed 2 1-3 per cen. commissions. The former price aid as commissions, was 5 per cent Then we call 2 1-2 per cent, "retrenchment." But it seems to me likfi the office of pur chasing agent, might be abolished entirely, while the Commissioners fjtain a man as Superintendent of the Poor House at a salary of $300 a year. This amount should com mand the services of a fair business man, and I see no necessity for hav ing a purchasing agent; then the Superintendent should do the ptuv chasing without any extra fees. The merchants of your town are men of good business qualifications and up right gentlemen, and I have no hesi tation in saying that the county would not be hurt if the prices of supplies were entirely left to them, as they buy supplies at market prices they Would be rPrfAflT. ,T.n,,, sen to the county for cost in cash, as Py gooas lor produce which incalculable amount of pasturage for propose. i visit. .ouung oi interest W In n Tfrwri 1 1,,t1- (k.i KIUS ( I II.

New East building loaded with I wood, Although it was qnite early I when we passed through Ghapel' Hill, we saw evidences that there ! was still lite in the Village; the streets presented quite a business appearance. About a mile beyond Chapel Hill, we had the unexpected pleasure of meeting with our popular countyman, W. F. Stroud, Esq., who was looking after the building of fine Mills on property recently purchased in Orange county. He was glad to see us, and not having time to chat us as he liked, exacted of us the per mit to spend a night with him on our return at his house. The country from Chapel Hill to Durham, a distance of twelve miles, is quite broken, and not very pre possessing to the traveller, in tact it looks quite poor in the vicinity of Durham, At 10 o'clock we had reached our destination, and secur ing our steed we proceeded to the world-wide known smoking tobacco factory of W. T. Blackwell & Co., where we met our friend and form er countyman, Capt N. A Ramsay, who has been book-keeper for this mammoth concern for several years, and they are fortunate in securing tlie service? of ttlis accomplished ac- .1 "X' .ii . r i countant. The hour for dinner be ing announced, we accepted Capt. R'r invitation to dine with him, and at once repaired to his beautiful res idence, where we weie most cordially received and entertained by his most estimable wife. Dinner over, we re turned with the Capt. to his office, where, for the first time, we mec the Senior partner of this firm, Col. Blackwell, of whom we shall make mention hereafter. To look through the apartment of this colossal estab lishment, was onr leading desire on leaving home, and to this task, Capt. R. assigned himself that afternoon. The counting rooms are most conve niently arranged and handsomely furnished; beyond this, I can not at tempt a description, for it is beyond my comprehension; one must see it to fully comprehend its magnitude. Great executive ability is displayed i in the management of this immense business, and so well is its govern ment arranged that it naturally runs itself. A competent head to each department, with Col. Blackwell as buyer of the raw material and Julian S. Carr, Esq., Junior partner, finan cier, who, by the by, is considered one of the best financiers in the South. It. was getting late when we had finished our round of sight see ing, and wishiug to spend the night, with a friend in the countrv, we bid these clever gentlemen "good after noon," and piocepded to tho resi dence of Mr. Alvi Horton. form erly of Chatham, who now owns a fine farm six miles north af D-irliMn, on Eno River. Here wo agiin met with that cordial welcome so charac teristic with the people of Chatham.

" The Methodist and Biptist de nominations of Durham have very elegant churches, that would be a credit to any of our cities. I was iti formed that Mr. Cut contributed 1700 to the building of the Method ist church, and Colonel Blackwell about the same to the Baptist, he being of that pursuasion. Both of these gentlemen have families, and have elegant residences, with beauti fully decorated yards. Col. Black well is very f md of flue stock, and showed US through Lis stables, where ' fire kept twenty-seven elegant horses, I for in their 1, MT. nt , wpiit. to ins no;-? km, wiiicu is wen io- : eated, with running water through J it ; there we saw fine strains of Berk- i shire and other improved breeds of I bo-js some of them would weih I from 250 to 500 lbs. A pen of 29 i fat turkeys, bought 4ot Christmas, was close by; here a door is opened in the wall inclosing this lot, and we are ushered into a regular kennel, where the Colonel keeps a large pack of hounds for fox and rabbit hunting, of which he is exceedingly fond. It is now nearly 1 o'clock, and being reminded of our promise to our friend Mr. Stroud, who lives nineteen miles distant, over a muddy road, we reluct tanly bid these clever people g o i bve, and turned our back on Durham with the hope that we may again visit that pleasant place. We have it in proof, that Durham is one of the most hospitable towns in the State. A little after sun-down, we drove up to the gate of our friend, whose shake of hand and genial smile showed the reality of the warmth of our welcome, by both, Mr. St; oud and his very ex cellent wife. Supper was soon an nounced, and being first-rate with a knife and fork, with the additional apology of missing our dinner, I as sure you we did ample justice to the bountiful supper set before us by his good lady. Supper over, we repaired to the parlor of our friend, where were assembled several clever gentle men of the neighborhood, and among them, Mr. Whitted, the popular school teacher, in the Mount Pleas ant neighborhood, and conversation of course turned to the subjeot of education; a subject which is now exciting the people of North Caroli na; and after a lengthy and animated discussion on the subject of "higher education for the masses oi the peo ple," it was agreed by a decided ma jority that a well educated boy would not plough a kicking mule in a rocky field, without cursing. Our stay with our friend, was very pleasant feeling rather like we were at home. The many friends of cmr clever old bachelor friend Wilson Stroud, will bo sorry to learn that his condition is still unchanged I think though, the symptoms indicate a change for the better.. A very clever, sprightly wid ow down at Durham, has been mak ing enquiries pointing in that direc tion. He has the sympathy of a host of friends with tlie hope that he may soon bo all right. We bid good-bye to our clever friend and hi good lady the next mcrniLg, and without the scintilla of an accident, to mar tho pleasure of this trip, we reached home with renewed energies, and met the fond embrace of an affectionate and loving wife, one of the pleasures of this life thaf. an old bachelor knows nothing about.
