There is a peculiar conformation of the Atlantic coast, cast and south of it which makes it a sort of focus of trade for the whole State, as well as for large portions of the States of South Carolina, Virginia, and Tennes see. It is almost equi distant from Charleston and Norfolk, with Wilmington and Beaufort on our own coast, which the Rail -roads now in progress will soon render tributary to our pros perity.

Still another, si gnific(uit fact, tne. we by. this- route would probably ave luitj a w of dollars. These, Mr, Editor, are cer- ""ly jocte, worthy of great consideration oy " citizens of the good old State, ind more es Naliy those of the Atlantic cities. &k. then, bv what rule of political econo- J it can be nroved. that the trade of Bun- oahn wilj be worth more to N. Carolina,- Kposing she can get it.) than the trade of all Supper counties of E.Tennessee, Kentucky Virginia? what rule would the Market of N. Caro- be worth mom to Buncombe, than tbe City of Oaks can not fail under such circum stances to become a place of importance. It is worthy of special gratulation, that this extensive system of Raii-roads is already full half completed. We have a direct communica tion with Norfolk and Peterburg, and, when the Central Road is opened, our connectioi. with, Wilmington, and with the West, will leave only the Road to Charleston, and the lateral tributaries to the Central Road, unfinished. -What has already been accomplished has been the fruit of untiring exertions with small moans; but those improvements have addd greatly to tbe resources of the State, and have thus become the capital with which a still more extensive superstructure may bo built. North Carolina has to-day twice the amount of disposable capital which it had ten years ago. . We incline to the opinion that its actual capital is twice as great as at that perictl, ano that its available resources are in a still great On every side the evidences ol er proportion prosperity are visible, in t;wn and country. -The towns aggregately, we believe, have near ly or quite doubled in population, and the me chanic arts manufactures and trade have'in creased in equal proportion. These facts will not be denied or controver ted, anu they cannot fail to impress the public with the utility and importance of Internal Improvements. II iihet to. Railroads in North Carolina have not been profitable investments, notwithstanding the great bent-fits they have conferred upon, the country at large; but it proportion as manufactures and trade increase will be the increase in the dividends to th Stockholders.

Ford, in equity, from Randolph, 'directing a reference to the Master, Wednesday. Jan. 25th. Clifton v. Newsom. from Franklin ; submitted by Miller for plain tiff ; argued by Lauier for dofendant. required the formation of a Southern Confede racy. These facts arc notorious, and it is useless for the champions of the Admiuistration to at tempt to deny ihem. They came into power with professions of reverence for the Compro mise upon their lips, and for the uieu who made it; and their first act was to repudiate those men, and to invite their enemies and the ene mies of the Union into lull fellowship as sharers j of the spoils. I Mr. Foote shows conclusively that while he j was laboring for the preservation of the Union, nis opponents, led on by Col. Jefferson Davis, now Secretary ol ar, were exeruiig eciy nerve to effect its dissolution. He quotes from the Message of his predecessor. Governor Quit man, to show how thoroughly the Secession party were committed against the Compromise. Davis was equally ulna, and yet, in spite of this notorious fact, or in consequence of it. be uas been called by the President to the head of tne War Department. ! His denunciations of Davis are severo and well deserved. It is difficult to understand how a man with his views could have undertaken the-ftffiee of administering laws which he held to be unconstitutional, null, and void. Davis inis repeatedly denied that he was a candidate for the recent vacancy in the Senate w hich hns been filled by the election of A. G. Brown, but F.wite declares that he was a candidate ; that he a rote letters to friends, urging his claim to that ..ffiee, all the while that he bus been pretending ;o take no part in it Immediately atVr the expiration of his term of service, General Foote took his departure for California, ii'a New York, and on his way ex rcised his well known propensity for speaking .y addressing the people at several points. Among other places which he thus favored with a "touch of hi quality, was the ciry m Washington, where he spoke for an hour or more in the dining room of the National Hotel. He reiterated his denunciations of the A'tmin stration: and of Col. D.vvis in particular, in such language as bandy comports with the am vable relutious of those chivalrous sons of the South. The fact is significant that at the meeting i: Washington, Mr. Stantor, of Tennessee, presi ded, an'd Mr. Bayly of Virginia, and Mr.Wheel er of New York, are said to have acted as Sec retaries. Gov. Foote declares, what there is reason to b dieve. that the feeling in that portion ot tne South through which he has been travelling is j srrong against the Administration and daily strengthening. How can it be otherwise ? Is the Southern Democracy sincere in its profes sions of attachment to the Compromise? Is it -incere in its professed obligation to Daniel S. Dh-kinson and his friends? Then how can .hose Democrats abandon their friends, and take the side of the unprincipled "Softs" who only four or five years ago were the avowed ad vocates of Free Soil? iized world, by turning land pirates and avow ed public robbers. But while we must all ap i.rove this act of the President, we cannot forget ihat when Mr. Fillmore issued almost precisely uck a -proclamation against the Ou'bau fillibus- .rtf mie ot wnoiit, and tue. cniei, o. u. j oui pal owners of the Garay grant' are understood to be Hargou and company, of, Mexico." j-i The aid of the Government has been invoked to pnt down tho F,ri trouble, but thf Pennsyl vania Legislature has stepped in- aiid virtually .van, .. spoken of a.

It would b affectation in the Publishers t pretend any degree of insensibility to this mis fortune. The pecuniary loss is very heavy ; but this can be repaired by the same means which rendered it possible.
