(Que re) might not this be considered the age of iron? as that metal seems to have usurped the place of every thing else that is useful dr destructive. From an iron petard down to an iron pen, the endless uses to which it is or-rnay be applied, would, astonish a citizen of the Augusta age and even Byron would weep orerthe senele$s jargon of his eloquent apostrophe to the grey goose quill,' could lie arise from the dead, and see what an in animate instrument has usurped its place. May it not be owing to this that there is so little of the true fire of eloquence and poetry at present, and at the same time more exactness, artisti cal skill and critical acumen ? Potcntiron has chained down the minds of men, as he has fire and air, and even the lightnings of heaven. mence some improvement In a short time.- Massachusetts woold never hare been of one. tenth the importance she now Is, had not the liberality and public spirit of her citizens con trihuted to break those fetters of commerce and agriculture which Nature had thrown around her. , . - Look at the example of Virginia even. With a heavy public debt of eight or ten mill ions of dollars, she, every session of the Leg islature, is appropriating hundreds of thousands of dollars to wotks of internal improvement, which an inhabitant of this Slate would con sider perfectly chimerical ; and yet she pros pers under it. But it will be said that it will burden us with doubt, and consequently tax us like the Virginians are. Our reply would be, far better to incur double the debt and taxation than to remain in this state of destructive and debasing inactivity. What matters it with a people, if you double their taxes, provided you give tnem tnrice ine auuuy io pay i uum i we not all be willing for the State to increase the debt in proportion as he increases our : abilitr to Dav to carry out some work that will aid us to rise from the lethargy we are in ? Who would notjbe proud to see North Caroli na rank foremost amongst her neighbors in commerce and trade, even if she were five or ten millions of dollars in debt? And yet she can never expect to gain any eminence in the commercial world, in her present situation as well might you expect a sandy waste to bloom like a garden. We" could speculate on this subject at any length, but we forbear. We will, at some subsequent time, endeavor more particularly to point put the practical bear with the thoopht til i:'- "CMCru irm Would oon bring W i the upper ralley of the Yadkin .i F.1? point we designed to mak INTERNAL IMPROVEMENT.

It is, sir, a cheering omen of better things to come, to see the intelligent and en lightend of all sections, of all parties, and of all "cliques," throwing aside all causes of differ ence, uniting boldly and manfully in advoca ting a plan by which ?North Carolina will be speedily disenthralled from the galling fetters of commercial restrictions, from the cast ot Jan cied natural barriers to trade and traffic with other counties, and exalted to that rank amongst her sisters of this great Confederacy, to which, by the blessings of a kind Providence and by her real honest merit and unpretending worth, she is pre-eminently entitled. It is a matter of no small degree of impor tance to the interests ot every citizen of the Slate, that efficient, active and timely steps be taken to commence, carry on and give success to this scheme, suggested and urged by the ne. cessilies of our situation, demanded by, the. pressing calls of large sections of ihe State for something to enable them to apply their capi tal and labor effectively and profitably ; and must awake from the lethargy and stupor which have bound us (down to the old beaten track of our ancestors, and learn to go to mill" by some other path. DALETH. For the Watchman. No. 5. 44 Laurel Falls of Watauga, April 13, A. D. 1849. Gentlemen Editors:- I have not writ ten to you this time quite as soon as I ex pected, because I have been in some trou ble. In consequence of the unfortunate lo cation of my heart, and the rude incission made in my side, (alluded to in my first letter) my circulation is a good deal de ranged, and some irritation has been pro duced. Being too much accellerated in the limb where my heart, is about to be placed, there is a constant fever with advocated and pushed through the Legislature slight symptoms of mortification, while by the public spirit, energy and patriotism of along the main arteries where my heart leading men in both political parties, that it ought to be, the circulation is so irregular, can be shown to be of direct practical bearing rupon every .citizen of the State, and that it will be highly beneficial in its results, we presume will, scarcely be denied by any candid man, who has given the subject serious consideration. We are aware that self-interest; is a leading motive to action in communities as well as in dividuals ; and any particular section will not be easily convinced that there will be any prac tical utility in a scheme which does not imme diately and visibly affect'thern advantageously ; and they are too apt to identify their notions of advantage to the State with advantage to an isolated community. We think that it can be that a dangerous intermittant has been engendered, and my people in that quar ter are effected alternately with cold chills and high fevers ; and have been holding consultations to devise means of relief. Feeling sorrowful over this state of things, I have resorted to this unfrequent ed retreat, where I am always want to be when distressed, and where few indeed of my people have, ever made a foot print.
