The Salem Press of March 31st, says: Mr. Wheeler, of Guilford Coun ty, has over four hundred bushels of sweet potatoes, and will realize about $1 a bushel from the sale of them.

One of the greatest dangers of the future to the well-lteinsr of our coun try is the consolidated power weilded by mammoth corjoiations; and this is strikingly exemplified in Jthe cafe of great railroad combinations. It is true in the South we have not as yet felt the full pressure of the iron hand, like our friends of the North, but who can tell how distant the day maybe? It is to be regretted our Legislature did not see fit to estab lish the railroad commission asked for by the people. It could hve worked no harm for railroads operat ed as legitimate enterprises. . Rail roads are great conveniences, and even combinations of them may ad vance the public interests, as long as they remain the servants and not the masters of the people. Auson Times.
