I have very closely watched the operation of (hi- ( onipanv.

It is no easy mailer for (his or any other Southern Kailroad to raise at any one lime for dividends the large sum of $240,000. Nor will a corporation study economy or efficient man agement, when its earnings have to go jirt-tty much all to the public, rather than to its pri vate members. Tlie oilicers of this Road arc thus, on the one hiftid, restrained in declaring dividends of its surplus profits ; and on the other, they are tempted to wasle and extravagance, by the very fact of their often having large amounts of money in their Treasury, which they have no use for, and which ihey would declare as divi- icnils hut tor this provision, true swlicv re ,..ir tl,m pvvn h.llnr nut n.M-.led tor the inst wants of the Road, shoiild be promptly paid out to the .state and the st. holders as diyi- .lend, whether it he 2, 4 fir C jicr cent.

RATHER STRANGE. It is known thatStokes of the "AfherUU Xcm,n has for some time been firing rather hot shot at the iniquitoiuJaiHl fraudulenti transaction of the "ring" who are pretending to build the Wes tern Division of the XV. N. C. Railroad. It is not generally known (nevertheless it is equally true that honest exposures of corrup tion and fraud is not a very profitable trade alsjut this time and that friend Stokes not being in the "ring" is hard pressed for means and has advertised the Aims aid Farmer for sale, having dispaired of keeping the paper up against the combined iidluiiiec of party, grecubacJuy steal age, &c - Now comes the strange part. A few days ago (here apiieared a man in ourqliiet midst calling himself Womble who represented that he had lived in Wilmington, Fernandina, Florida, edi- f Usl a -si er irrTTioniiiKv ille.-Gi; -and 4jcen railroad eomluetor and a crest many other things. He hurriedly called on Stokes andsaid he had conic to comply with his terms and want ed to take (losnession of the office at once. Now Stokes did not see the necessity of sneh hothasto and refuser! to comply with his WomWe's) ie quest at the very moment and intimidated that he (Womble) was in the interest of the "ring." Womble stoutly denied this and feigned anger. IW some means 11 leaked out that the cx-edi- 1 (or-raiii that he tor-raiiioad-contractor, dec., had no money and paid his stage fair, hotel bills and . br orders on one G. M.'
