Caldwell, of Burke, tail that be was su: lried that there should be opposition to the pas-Mge-f the resolutions at this late day, and on their last reading. What, Mr. Speaker, is the purport of these resolutions ? dimply, Sir, to make an ap 1 proprjation for a survey of th"e Western .extension, of the Xortb Carolina' Railroad, foin its present lncina on the French Broad river in Buncombe county, through the counties ot Haywood, Macon, Jackson and Cherokee, to some point on the Ten pea.ee line, in th vicinity of Ducktown. The Nate of North Carolina ha already manifested her ' willingness and intention to assist in .building a Tlailnrad froroSalisbury west to the line of the State of Tcnnwsee, and for that purpose bas granted a libera charter, and has pledged herself for a lib- rd, a5 a, Sir, a mag? ifloenl amountof money, and the only question now is, whether this road to all take the route down French Broad River, to tha Paint rock, or the one indieated by the resolutions of t h t gentl utan from Jackson. For one, Sir, I am nut prepared to say, which is the better, cheaper, r mere eligible route, nor do 1 suppose that oth er gentlemen in this House are, any better pre pared to make a selection than I am, nor will tlwy te, nor can they, until a competent corps of engi neers shall have made a thorough and satis factory surrey of both routes, and a comparison' of the diffiru'ties to be surmounted, a&4 the benefi'i to be derived by taki rig either theone or the other.. For myself, it, L-prpteH-"-ajrajnst passing, by the claims and interest b the people of the counties - c( llavwood, Macdii,4Jackson and Cherokee, who 'lave heretofore Larae their equal portion of tsx ' alioo for Internal Improvements in other and dis tant portions of theState, without at least Rlvinjr. 'their claims to like benefits a respecllul bearing and their i&terests a fair considtYation. Such a course on our part, is due to them ; is due to the interests uf the State involved in this important work, and although I live at distance from them, and have but few acquaintances in thoee counties, ye 1 loei it a duty, one, too.which it affords rue a pleas sure to perfinn, to raise my voice in their bebalf in thi Hall, and to endeavor to have such a mea lire of Initio meted out to tbem as I would ask f for my own-immediate constituency 'were they 4" laoeI ia a similar situation. . : . . i Mr. Fagg iaid that he was glad to sm that the tj gentleman from Burke, was at but returning to his senses on the subjectof Internal Improvement, ' and betook occasion now 1o congratulate him on ' the happy event. 'If I am, not mistaken. .Mr. ; bpeakcr the gentleman during the last summer . was most violent ia has opposition to the cause of ; Internal Improvement, and is the very man who commenced proceedings in the Court of Equity lor Burke county to stop the progress of the West . ern North Carolina railroad. I do -hope and in ; aist that the House will not now act Upon these reso ' Jutiona, which have been sprung upon me at a time when 1 did not expect it, but that they will be : postponed to some future day, when I will be bet- tor prepared t act upon tbem. ' ilr, Caldwell, of Burke. Mr. .Speaker, iibaoome . iw to aga in trouble this House so far as to make my ' liwwt profound acknowledgements to the gentle : man from Madion for hu complimentary con . cratuiations whUUatth same time, I mmtdeep- 1 v and sincerely regret, that it is utterly out of av I power, having a proper" regard tor truth and sen respect, to reciprocate thecompliment and return Ite congratulation. It would have been we'd, Mr. Speaker, for the gentleman to have Hit himself to " a little trouble to procure correct and reliable in lormation with, regard to my position on the sub- ject of Internal Improvements before he attempt red to define it to this body be should aiieat have enlightened himself before be undertook the task of enliihteniag others. I. Sir, opposed to Internal Improvements? where is the proof? Look to the Legislative journals from the year 181.! up to the pretent time, and show me when and where I : have'opposed the cause ot Internal Improvements. TVither in the East or in the Wft- 1 appeal ts i ! gntlemen on this floor with whom I have here , tofore had the honor and pleasure of serving as a . member of this body, whether I have not, on alt cccaeiona, been an earnest and a consistent advo . rate of Internal Improveinente. without regard to . the section of the State where they were located, and even to the gentleman from Madison, hiru- self I appeal, to tav whether wc bavo nut in by- gone days stood side bv side, shoulder to shoulder, for the cause of Internal Improvement ; but the gentleman appears to be oblivious of these facts, and row charges me with being opposed to In- temal Improvements, even when 1 am endeavor ing lo obiaiu from the State an apprjimtlon for a survey into , the remote counties uf We-tern North Carolina, for the HirpoM of ascertaiaing whether or not it be. practicable and proper to - build a Railroad into that portion of the Sute, ;which has been heretofore neglected, whilst 'mo ney frm the Treasury ba been Uvishcd upon" r the mora favored ones. Now, Sir, while the gen . tleman, who is such a great champion and friend . of Internal Improvements, is thus charging upon . me. I would respectful! v inquire, bow U be sluw- . ' Ing bis boasted devotion to the cause? Why, Sir, in a moat singular and remarkaoie manner by endeavoring to defeat a resolution giving thi imall ' pittance of a Survey through his neighboring coun ties. A most remarkable friend, truly, is th$ gen- . tleman to the cause of Internal Improvements. But, Mr. Speaker, I will try the gentleman's -1 friendship, further, and by a different rule- How woch baa he subscribed in the way of stock to ' build this Western Railroad and'open art avenue through his own section of the Stale? Surely such a strenuous friend has been liberal with his means; surely be ba exemplified his faithby hU works, and has proved bis patriotism by something more solid than words I , It is, however, a melancholy trath,Mr. Speaker ,tbat neither the gentleman him-1 selfiorasingleoae of the seven or eight hundred I ' voters of bis cuvty,has subscribed a single cent to this important work, although it is highly prob- - ' alii that it will run through the patriotic gentle- . man's countv, ,from" one end to the other ; whilst 1, eaemy as 1 am in the gentleman's estimation, bavesubWibed-acoording to my ability to build . ' up thii enterprise, and diffuse its leneut, if any it may confer, among the citizens pf .Western : . 'orth Carolina. . But, Mr. Speaker, tli& gentlo- ; . man rharres that I commenced a suit againt the w Railroad Company, and for the purpose of delay ing the progress, of the road. Such a charge shows the atter ignorance uf the gentleman of the mab- r ter concerning which he professes to know some- ls thing. 'It M true, that I .obtained an: injunq tion; not, however or the jxirposeof delaying the profrress of the , Western N ortb Carolina Rai lroad, ; .but tor the purpose of relieving the citizens of the countv of Burke from an unjust, oppressive and - illegal tax, which by fraudulent and unfair means , was attempted to be fastened upon them, and that too, after the people of my county, at a .full and fair election, by a large and decisive majority, - had placed their seal of condemnation upon a pro portion to iay a tax upon tha county for the pur je of raising stock in that work ; and, Sir, be un I stepped, forward to save my constituents fronva burden about to be placed upon them witn- : .nit their conseat, and in direct opposition to their . wishes, previously expressed at the ballot bole? 1 am to be held op to this House and to the peo p of the Sute as 6ne who is inimical to In- - tercal Improvements." These unjust imputations, ; f Mri Speaker, were made against me in my late ran vaes in my own county, and to a generous and enhtened people, who understood the quarter - f&u which they cme, and ktew how' to.appre ciat them and, Sir, the persons who put them ia- ' to circulation and fanned them into a flame, for j the purpose of defeating- my election, brought out in exposition t me a gentleman of unspotted re putation, and one thought to be the mo popular and influential that be found in the county; my presence here to-day, shows the result of that can . va. and r1 era 'visU ales the fact bat the people - thenilves approved of my course, and generously utained me ia my efforts to protect their inter sit. 1 hope.

S' ALLKGHAXT countt. 1 j The-pecial order the bill to lay off and es tablish the County of Allegany oat of Ahe, was taken up. ; ' Mr. Dobson speke at some length in favor of its passage, urging that it would not affect tha rep resentation ot any county that a division of the County "was absolutely required by the wants of the people, s im of whom had to travel' 50 or 55 mile to court., over very rough road, having to cross New River, which was often rendered nearly impassable by the accumulation of ice. ' He quo ted from the census returns and from ib votes in State elections n show iLat'fi had now, or would certainly have at trie tiruef lb- next apportion ment, the requisite number of individuals for two member;. 1 he bill had parsed the House of Com mons at the lan session; by a large majority, and j had also pah that body by a large majority j this session, and the Committee 10 whom u had been, refi'rrtjd were unanimously in favor of if. Mr.- Brown, followed in favor of the bill, lie L Aought no, measure nior entitled ti the favora- ble consideration of the Senate would be present edthLs session. He regarded it as the imperative Aniv f tha Jri JaturA tn iut4 Oil bill. Th great principles of popiar justice also demanded its iaage. r.7ery lay lost, by the citizens ot ukn County in attendjince on eoun was so mucn tax. Mr. Pool said if becMfld.be surcthatthe propos ed new county .contained the required population he Would vote for the b.lK I But the gentlemen who peeoeded him had failed to sa isfy him. Ho ar gued that the ratio at'fhe next apportionment would be much greater than at lh4 hist, and as a consequence this rew cK;nty would not have the necessary pxpu!ation. He stated that there were 17 counties in the State larger than Ashe, which was proposed to be divided, and II nearly r quite as large,, making 28 counties, which he contended had equally i as goo j a right to make thiiiame uiion for divb-iuii. ile ciud Curri tuck and Carteret counties to prove that the dit'-. Qculties in setUDtr to ana I rum tourt were as great, if not greater, in those Counties as in Ashe. Tie stated that rons in Currituck had frequent ly to go 100 miles, to Court in an open boat or canoe, the streams not being large enough for any ether vessel, and after being exposed, to the winds and the dangers of rocks, A.C., he had seen thnm wkh . their clothes ' all frozen on them. In. Carteret it wat evei worse thau Currituck. But did they bring their grievances to the LegL-l-ture? No. Eastern men stood -upon tlu Compro mises of the Constitution. Mr. LeaelK thought the bad travel, A;c , could be remedied by a change of the time for hold ing the Courts in Ashe, and rocorniuendod the summer as the time. If they went on establishing new counties, in 1873 there' would be a serious drain on the Treasury to pay Jtidgvs, Solicitors, &c. He should oppose the bill. Mr., Lane, as chairman of the Committee on Propositions and Grievances, had investigated the matter fully, apd was of the opinion that the proposed new County would have the required pop ulation. '1 : 'i ' . Mr. Carmichael exp'ained why he should bp ioed thetiill: ' He thought it did not contain the required population, but considered that popula tion had nothing to do in the case. He thought it would .urn out as did ; Watauga County which soiue years ago, at the -solicitation of the Senator who represented Asbe, he advocated 4n the Com mons. It had since turned out that Watauga did not have the' necesary population at thu time spoken of, nor did it have it yet. Mr. Miller opposed the billon the same grounds as Mr. Ca'micbael.

They vtfere each , clad in common kersey pants and lound about,over which they wore a.ieavv blanket. .Women and; all were thus dressed, None had shoes, for the reason that they could not walk in them ; in fact could scarcely walk at all having b4en confined and 'crowded so"close on ihipboard !Most of them were verv pert and lively : laughihg and - talking in their native tonmio.

Some of them were good looking but ol hers shockingly ugly some were what might vulgarly be called pun ' or hog-jawed. Ii noticed one, a man who had very high cheek bones and several gears on his face ; and appeared very intelligent, lie was " bis 'chief no doubt in hiswuntry.
