A XEU' UAILUOAU.
A railroad is projected from H llson
t-iA Fayetteville to Florence. S. C.
It is tliought that this road will cer
tainly be built. It will bo a so much
shorter line than the present Atlantic
Coast line i Wilmington. Such a
route has been spoken of for a loi.g
time, but now work is about to b.-gin.
Next week two surveying parties will
leave Fayetteville, one to go via
Smithfiold to Wilson and tin- oilier
to run the line from Favvitcvillo to
Florence, as we learn in a letter from
Col. Fleming Gardner who is to bo
the chief engineer. If this railroad
is built and the (Vpo Fear ilc Yadkin
Valley road completed as now con
templated, the two roads intersecting
ftt Fuvetteville will infuse new life
into that good old town and rebuild
her waste places.

MOT AT PLYMOUTH.
Thfi people of North Carolina, both
W;U'k and white, are so law ubidii
aad it so rarely happens that an olli
cer of the law is resisted, that every
body was much surprised to hear that
a riot had occurred in one of our
towns during the Christmas lmlidavs.
lu tho town of Plymouth, in the east-
ern portion of the State, on the dav
before Christmas some negroes were
arrested bv the constable, whou lie

liOKSn Iwliom lu I-i.l tiMiniiioti.. 1
posse wuoiii nt l.ui s.imnione.t to
his assistance), one of them dying
from his wounds next dav. The "mob
took posssessiou of the town and the
greatest excitement prevailed. The
Mayor at once telegraphed the state
of affairs to the Governor and asked
for troops to tptell the riot. The
Governor promptly ordered three or
four military companies f:o:n the ad
jacent towns, but before their arrival
the Sheriff with a posse of 20!) men
had dispersed the rioters and arrested
fire of the ringleaders These rioter
were negroes who were employed in
the surrounding swamps getting out
shingles, and had come to town on a
Christmas frolic, and having indulge.1,
too freely in whiskey iliey became
tiuruly and guilty of this disgraceful
riot, we nope that such a summarr
and severe punishment will be int.'iet-
ed upon these rioters, that we will
have no more riots i-i our btaid old
State for inativ a day.
out PUHiIi: SCHOOLS.
e publish in this issue a most in
teresting coi'-munieation from our
very zealous county superintendent
of public instruction in regard to our
public schools, to which we invite the
careful consideration of our readers.
It is very true, as stated by Mr. Law,
that it makes no difference how zealous
and faithful may be the school ofii
cials, no system can be successful
without the co operation of the pen-,
pie, and we join him in urging them
to give that co-opcratiou. It is a
lamentable fact that our public
schools do very little good, and iu
deed this little rood is probably conn-
terbiikneed by the injury they ,1,, to
private schools It cannot be safely
asserted that the pubh schools of
North Carolina are promoting tlie
cause of education to uny yreat ex
tent. Many reasons are alleo-ed for
thia sad condition of nllairs. Mr.
Law suejejets that 'the ,'iadc of schol
arship anion
the teachers must be
raised," which is a very proper sti"
gestion, and we cannot have bolter
. ... 1, . . , , 1 1, 1 .
sehools until that is done : but that is
not all. Increase their imv! The
present pittance paid to our
is simply disgraceful and ri
r teachers
is simply disgraceful nn.l ridiculous.
They are actually paid less than the
. ,, , , ,
ctuiiiuou laborers who shovel dirt on
our railroads! We certainly cannot it
hojie for successful public schools
until the teachers are paid a reason
able and respectable compensation.

WONDEKFl'L WALKING.
In pedestrian contest that look
place last week in New Yuri; the win
nor, ft ma'i named Fitzgerald, made
the unprecedented dit-tanee of live
hundred and eighty-two miles in six
XAIiY.
During tho past year there has boon
n:i unprecedented exodus from the
old world, the number of emigrants
... ,. .. ., . - , ,
amvmg m the I nited States o,,ng
'larger tli.iu during any preceding
veur. At the port of New York a'one
(l,o arrivals for the year were nearly
four hundred thousand, over a him
dred thousand more than last year.
Tlie cosmopolitan cliaiach r of these
new settlers in our country may be
iiiiiigi.'ied when it is stated that over
tii'ty different nationalities arc repre
settled, embracing every land ami
dime in Europe, Asia. Africa. Austra
la-.ia and America. The largest num
ber came from Germany . and the next
largest from the British Isles. The
great bulk of these emigrants e,i
West rind aid in building up with
such wondc: 1'ul rapidity thoM1 great
Western and Nottli We.-tein Slates,
while but few. very few. I'm 1 their
way i the Smith, where a milder cli
mate and a more fertile soil 'invite
them. Could this stream of emigrants
once be turned Lu this direction they
would continue to conf in countless
'thousands, until our own South land
' would sooti beconi,- the populous most
portion of the Union.

Notwithstanding the heavy epe:t.-.i s
the debts are all paid, and the stock
holders may get something like
twenty-fivo per cent, on their sub
script ious. so that this Exposition
was a great or financial success than
the great Centennial j Exhibition at
Philadelphia.
The crowd that visited the Exposi
tion was unusually replesentative in
its charactel. The legislatures of
throe States, went in a body to the
Exposition. Among th- high ofli.-i.ils.
who went there, were l ight Gow rnors
