- Senators will recollect, thafafter this letter was

road had tean badly manag-."
The latter part of these remarks, is that to
which exception is taken. It is said in the let
ter, "in relation to tha administration of an Im
Mtrtant State work, I uake a very grave charge."
In another, part of the letter the wrlW goes on
co say, "nor am I' at all disposed to complain, but
rather to thank you, since it has given me a war
rant which otherwise would have been wanting,
to make this eall upon, you as tha organ of lets
public accuseri." He speaks freely of "nareas
nable people," "malignapt persons,'' "the vindic
tive and the cowardly," M well as of "geatlemen
and man of courage." ' : ' '
Which of these classes constitute "the accu
sers' whose "organ" I am to infer I am, It boots
me nt to inquire, for ia this connection, I must be
permitted fully to reciprocate the feeling which
prompted the writer to say In another place, "1
make no question as to your motives, since it is of
no consequence to me to Inquire." Thus it is pa
tent that even Mr. Fisher may be be betrayed in
to the absurdity el making "generally vague-
oharge." ' ,
But, Mr. speaker, it is not quite a matter of so
much indifference to me, and perhaps to the pub
lie, what Mr. Fisher would do ; were he not as he
ays " under bond ex-cjKcio to keep the peace."
Men caire the lion, as well as muzzle the-dog and
retrain the ox " that is wort to gore with his
horn.",but as he ia neither of these animals, but
aiiaply President of the North Carolina Rsil Road,
I is i.ot so ciear to my minu mat ius generous to

too sensitive. The world is large enough for b,.th
efus. lie is a public man, suca men sometimes
occupy high positions, and are thus like th tallest
oaks, most exposed to the violence of the ttjrir.
1 Lave a right as a citizen and as a Senator to
speak freely of public men and matters ; and. as I
am in the habit of ringing a vessel before I buy it,
and as I had occasion to speak v " the prevalent
opinion" in regard to the management of the road
of wbicn ne u rresiaem, ne ougntnot to conclude
that 1 thought be was cracked because I found the
road bad a bad ring.
lit arraizns me lor what he is pleased to term
" my deduction on your personal arraignment" in
the adrainibtrationof the road; and yet: he ac
knowledges " it was argued that the roads having
been badly managed by Via State, therefore," &c.
Now. if it ws argued that V State had managed
the roa is badly, how could he speak of his " per
sonal arraignment." It appears to me that if he
nad carefully noted my. words as reported, which
are : " tne system was wrong tn evils nad grown
out of the nature of the taut," he could not have
been betrayed into the deduction that he wa per
sonally arraigned, unless be cinder himself. 4ike
Louis XIV of France, "the State." i
But, Mr Fisher is not at fault in his apprehen
sion that I would.be " surprised," yea "astonish
ed" to hear that 41 the SortK Carolina Rail Road
Itat been in the fuindt of th individual SiocLtelder
from the day of its organisation Sc this day." I con
Ie that 1 was " turpnMQ tofieartms. Hot after,
hearing it, I was- absolutely a-Umitfud' to htar;
from the same source, that " Cur three years flrt
from the organization of this road, tb Sute had
no voice in her meetings either of Stockholders or
B'ard, because n.it yet a ii older of any interest
therein- Since July 1853 she hoe had a controlling
power in both." '
.Now. Mr. speaker, tnese two statements being
contradictory and coming from the same witness,
I can see but two construflions to be placed upon
them, the more charitable of which is that the wit
ness has madtflie total mistake and misapprehen
sion of facts. But, Mr. Fisher goes on to say :
'For some time past I have observed, wi.h much
concern, the evident lack of all aceurate informa
tion concerning this road," &c., " on the part if.
cii any, who assume to speak of it most of thee
gentlemen of intelligence and honor.'' " They em
phatically, he continues " pronounced the work
profitless both to the State and the Stockholders,
paying no dividends and only able to meet its cur
rent expenses by its earning' the "concern" of
the President of this road seems to have been to
very little purpose, since it Is apparent that he him
self has not been at the pains to get that "accurate
information" the want I of whiah he so feelingly
deplores in others. ;
But, what am I arraigned for? Why, simply
for jjaying that "the prevalent opinion was that
the iSorth Carolina Railroad was badly managed."
Is that not so ? Does not Mr. FUher, himsel, ac
knowledge the fact? Does he notsubctantisllv'sav
that for some time past, he has observed that ma-
gentlemen ol intelligence and nonor, no: only
lacked accurate information concerning this road;
but that the same gentlemen had emphatically pro
nvunced the road profitless f Is not an opinion
prevalent when many entertain it? And is not a
Kailroad generally considered vadly managed
when it is emphatically pronounced profitless
both to the State and to the stockholders? i
I am not reported to have' charged that the road
was badly managed, but to have spoken of a "prev
alent opinion," the existence of which Mr. Fisher
himself has proven. Having so satisfactorily es
tablished this point, I will doubtless be excused
from going before "the committee" of -inquiry"
which he would otherwise "bewarrantei in ex
pecting I would be at some care tc attend." Public
opinion is the accuser, and I have only- an
nounced that fact. 'The indirect insinuation (hat
I have ungenerously, and unjustly prejudged and
densured, either the President or the Stockholders
of the Road, is therefore based upon "a total mis
take and misapprehension of facts."
Mr. Speaker, under the former administra
tion of the N. C. Railroad, the stock was stated to
be tolling at 50 cts. in the $1.00 : under the pre
sent it has been sold, if I am correctly informed,
for .'ess than 15 cts. in the $1.00. Whigs tnen
had a liberal share in the Directory! now scarcely
any, where the State has appointed. The allegation 1
has been made, and not disproved, that during
last summer there Were but three whig officers in
the subordinate departments ot the road ; yet the
whig party bas always been the true Internal Im
provement party cf the country.
, In July 1855, whn Mr. Fisher was first elect
ed a Director, a Commi'tee reported to the Stock
holders "the strong assurance" they felt "that
when fai-ly under way It would be a permanent
6 per cent: paying stock," and congratulated the
Compenv on the near approach of tha'Boad io
completion. n 1856 Mr. Fisher 'thought wis
"might anticipate for our road a of future success

complihfd lie entertained "no reasonable doubt

to have known something about tha matter. : The
President, at least, ought to hava had "accurate

Bat now does it oome taat tne freights are so
low, that, together with short crops, etc., the stock

whan the State had ' aantroUing power" In the
matter T Did tne stockholder ao wrong.as u
insinuated in demanding1 low freights? Where
was Mr. Fisher and the State, that they did not
resist the demand ? I apprenend, . Mr. Speaker,
that it will put Mr. Fisher to some trouble to ex
plain these things satisfactorily .to the country, and
until ha does, he should not be surpriaed that there
is an opinion abroad, that the read over which h
oreside is badly noanaead. Whether r the road
dias bean thus managed or not, on thing is cer
tain, man .or enterprise, a nanciu., acumen and
capital have petitioned this legislature; t farm
out the road to them ior five years, broraising to
pay the interest on the preferred stock o the State,
and "some dividend'' on the balance, and to rive
bond with ample security to return the road and
equipments to tne state, at toe end or tnat time,
in as good condition as when, received. . These
men must think there is money to be made by
this project, or they would not make "this offer.)
They may be deceived, bat we cann'ot question
their sincerity.
I regret, Mr. Speaker, that t have thought it
necessary to say what I have about this extraor
dinary letttr, and the management of the North
Carolina Bail Road, end as the affairs of that
Roid are undergoing' an ' investigation, I Invoke
from tvie community a suspension of its verdict

The President of this Road is a man' I i ave al
ways respected and I eqtertain no- vindictive feel

I have done so unintentionally. Tf the interests
of theJKoad havesufiered under his administration,
his head was wrong and not his heart, and if thn
prevalent opinioa is that such has been the case, I
am not responsibre" for it, and I cannot help it.,
Having spoken of the Mteraddressedto me, as
I tbink'it deserves, and having endeayored to do

forty, years he has been in the public; service, ind
in whatever position he has been placed, heias
performed the duties: devolving upon him, with
credit to himself and satisfaction to the public---A
man of ansullied private character, he possessed
la at eminent degree, thwe rare and inestimable
qualifies both of mind and heart, which -must
command the respect and esteem of all good men.
Whilst we feel a deep and sincere sorrow.' at be
ing -separated from such a man, yet we are1 to
some extent consoled by the reflection, tbat.he
bas left behind 'him an example, that will be a
beacon light, a polar star to guide succeeding gen

ing, as I do, that each member of the Court will
heartily concur in the rentiments expressed In the

The members of! the Court are deenlv impress
ed ry the sad event to which your proceedings re
fer, and join in the sentiments" to which you have
given expre5on I ' L
To very extensive leeal learHinp. ri- scholar
ship, and an elegant and easy style, Judge Nash
united a mgn sense of moral and religious dutv,
which gave to him a' weight of character, that
was calculated to command the confidence of the
public for the decVion3 of any tribunal of which
he was a member. I His distinguishing character .
istics were firmness and integrity.
Iis urbanity and uniform attentien to all the
courtesies of social life, endeared him to hi" as
sociates; and in his death, we fiel that we have
lost not only our Chief Justice, but a friend. He
had lived the term allotted for human existence
three-score years and ten he had filled the meas
ure of his usefulness and honor. We were in
some degree prepared, and whilst bis demise sug
gests the most solemn considerations, the feeling
of regret should not be as unmitigated, as when
one is suddently cut off in the prime of life. ,
