The Itilr lliffenrcr spresrs to isrume that a I the delays complained nf do occur on ihe Roads South cf Ptlmhurg; andstonee sweeps Ihem a'fon to this Raleigh 'nnd GasUin Road. r I sm nntvillinp; to believe tha editor of lbt paper would intentionally do.as wrong; but ihst article does us. manl iest intuslice. It is true that del vs. nave tC urrt'd on this Rfad; lot many of tlie J eases to which my attention his been eul led, represerueil as pwticlaHy srievons, have occu red North of Uiis Road., I (n not desire lo throw blame on the Peters. burg Rood; but to show that there ore complaints that should not rect on this. I will ciie some facts to show that eiihet too mneh is expected, or the huh is not all on the Rali-igli and Gaston Railroad. In the first place, ynur paprr was about eighteen dnys from Richmond to ; CidS'on, snd it came in reasonable time from Uit place. A merchant of your Count r states, he received a bill for a lot of Salt, I think, in August; nnd that, after a period of -almost two months, the , consignor infunned him that it was still in Petrisbnrp. On the 5th of October a merchant of this place called on me lo ciimplai.i of tneoeiay ol liis .Uoods, ana assured me they were then detained at Gaston; that the forwarding merchant from Pclersbutg had been to his Store. fSOlh September,) and stated- thai Jiis jutoda had .been forwarded before ho left that town. The mer chant desired lo go lo Gaston to' find his goods, but complaining of indisposition, I informed him I was going, down Ural day and would advise him if his goods were there. I remained at Gasioti through the and had not been there. Another merchant of thi place, on . the I2ih of Ocrobcr. bought of one honse two crates of crockery, both erected on the same bill of sslo. One crate was en tered on bill of lading of lllh, csmo duly to hand; ihe other could not be heard of the owner appearing to charge tho blame on ibis Rnarj. I wrote near a dozen letters on the subject; when, on the 17th of No vember, 31 days after the firt entry, came a Bill of lading for the other crate, and ihe article itself came duly to hand. Numer ous instances may be cited where this Road has been blamed for delays that have not occurred South of Gaston. In such cases, tyow-grw ,rtt ufea mystery 4 m ri(rt ab1'"to"folv'f r As to delays on this Road, and the euse: In the first place, it is known that Ihe mo. live powtr is very limited still, st tht commencement of the year, it was believ ed to be sufficient to met successfully the ordinary business of the Road, Circum stance thnt could not be foreseen, brought on the Road a vast amount of tonnage in the shape of Corn, and that al the season of heavy Todaccoirude; and transported at so low a rate of freight as not to afford means for increasing the machinery to meet the emergency. Still ihe motive power would hare encountered the business suc cessfully, hut an extreme wet win er was followed by, a summer unprecedented for rains and floods, which seriously itnpedfd the operations, and ncreased very . much the injury to the Road and machinery when, shout the 1st uf August, there came a succession of floods that threatened de struction to the Road. Several embank ments were broken down, or carried away j to such eiient as to stop the Mail train for , about three days, and almost paralvzinr the freight operaiions a groat iiortion of i the month and before Hits Road ciuiJ recover from these disasters, a larie amount of Salt waa offi'ied for transportation, be yond the means of the motive power to transport before the FaU Merchandise: presented usew. t onsequentlv. a portion of the Salt, and ronsidrrahle Iron, was much delayed; inmii Groceries sufierd a detention of a few days only. It is be lieved that Dry Goods suffered no seiious delay on this Rond. 1 am informed by a forwarding merchant at Gaston, ihnt pot . rax e than una. fourth tha usual quantity uf Goods has come to ilmt place by Bailroad tit's Fall, for River trade. An unusual amount of MerrlinnJi came over ihe Road this present FaH; and as iwon a it was manifest tha motive pow er was , insufficient, the Commissioners promptly ottlered a new Locomotive; but, being unable to find one ready-made, prevenied the possibility of procuring it in time for the Fall business. That business is now nesrly over. The New Loromo tivo is expected early in January, when it is believed the means wilt be sufficient to meet the wants of the public. As regards the loss of Gi.oJs: . Every firocaution is taken t prevent persons taving access to the Goods except at Depots. Dry Goods, airj,d othc valuable articles thai would offer temp'.aiton,' are pal in box cars, secured wiih good locks, that cannot be opened, except at Depots. Some ofthemost , serious complaints of boxes being robbed. I kno w from personal observation, came in cars, under lock, nnd the boxes in such position as to be inac cessible, even with the doors open, without anloadingt the packages complained, of being back from the door, and the car filled to the top, which will render jt im potsiblo to get Into the ear. even when the door is open, but by first taking out the good:"" ' 'v,,,i" It seems ' hardly possible thst ea?es which "appear in good order, could . have been robbed on the train such must un doubtedly be dona on board vessels, or at Warehouses. vlf the boxes could be delie, ered to the Road well hooped, there would be rio difficulty in ascertaining what con dition it should he delivered. , Wh'rt ft is evident losses do occur on the road, they desire to make foil compensation.
