A Rail Road will soon be completed lb Charlotte, making a continuous line to Charleston. This road will swallow up all the products between the Yadkin and Catawba, if not diverted. The same road will furniish carriagefor merchandise for the same section f jkun try, if no greater facilities are offered. A plank road, properly constructed, directly from Fayetteville to Sal isbury, would compete successfully with tile road to Charleston for the carrying business of the above named section of country. By that road, we could reach the Sea-port cheaper, and transport our merchandise upon better terms. Is it for a moment expected that the winding road by FranklinviBe, &c, can ever ofier such a successful competition to thefc Southern rclad ? If so, it is a vain expectation.

Bruner II James : My attention! has been arrested by the yery extraordinary route for! the Fay etteville and Salisbury-Plank Road, as indicated by the resolutions of a portion of the Stockholders a their late meeting in thf former town-. Those resolutions propose to run the road from Fayetteville to Vatson's Biidge, thence to Franklinville, thence to Ashebotough, and thence through Davidson," to Salisbury, 1 ! ' i ! Through what part of Davidson, is not definitely ex pressed, but those who know the face of the countky, must be satisfied that when the road is once! at Ashe borough j it must run to Lexington, by wayl of. New- Market, Fair ' Grove, ice., in order to extricate itself P. ? i from the succession"of hills adjacent to the Caraway Mountains. It is well known to such persons, that the only practicable route for such a road from Asheboro', to Salisbury, is by way of Lexington. This being the case, the respective distances between the noted points on the road, will be very nearly as fol lows : : -x The last Legislature was liberal towards the Town of Fayetteville. The State takes a larger proportion of the stock of the plank road,- the work asked for by that Town than in any other improvement jShe has a right to expect, that her bounty will be so psedj as not to conflict with; her other important interest. ' 1:1 But how are the Fayetteville people disposed I to re- Ward this liberality of the State ? by sapping iher oth er interests, and drawing the vitality from fcther cher ished enterprises. I j This is in. bad faith to the State, and contrary to the purpose and design of the Legislature in granting the charter and appropriation to the plank road from Fay etteville to Salisbury. A charter was granted for-one purpose and it is now sought to be used for another. This course of conduct will disgust the public with such enterprises; and injure the cause otg Internal Improve ment. I again repeat, that I hope the Internal Im provement Board will not suffer so manifest a perversion of the Acts of ; the Legislature, but will cause justice to be done to the State in this matter. .

The distance between Salisbury and Fayetteville travelled by every man who understands his own inter ests, is 1 1 5 miles. The route indicated, will therefore, be 25 miles lojig er than the direct, and in all respects, the most practi cable one. The cost of the road being estimated! at $2000 per mile, will give a cost of $50,0001 to the jse lected route, over and above the cost of the direct cine. ill consequence of this increased length of the road. This is only 030,000 less than the individual subscrip tion, and within itself, a sum by no means small, when compared with the whole amount of capital ; stock, Snd the limitedmeans of raising money lot the eontejnpla- j Leather, sole, 20 : Molasses 20 (3 26 : Nilfi, cut, 5$ ted work. i 1 But this is by no means the worst feature of this pro posed-route. ! f ' j 'The State has grantcdmoney and a charter, to a Company to improve ' the navigation of Deep-Ri4er; from' -Hancock's Mills, to Fayetteville. NoVv, as l lani informed, those mills are situated on Deep River above Watson's Bridge, and at all events, only af few miles from that Bridge. The Bridge then, is substantially at the head of this proposed navigation. Between that point anjd Fayetteville, about 45 miles, there will be two improvements, each aided by the State, and each impairing the usefulness of the other. For 45 miles, these ttoo works will run between the same points, and virtually parallel with each other ; presenting thejsame spectacle that is held out by our two rail roads, somjich to the regret of every person, and injury off the works themselves. L j j But look at the other end of this route, and behold a still more melancholy spectacle ; the Plank Road and Central Rail Road, running with each other; for seven teen miles from Lexington to Salisbury I have before said, that if this road runs to Asheborough j it must go' to Lexington, by way of avoiding the Caraway foun tains, and it is useless to argue this point to men who know the country. Again, we see, two unprovenieints, in both of which Ihe State is a large share-Kolder, tun rung from the same point, to a common point for 17 miles, side by side. . Add this to the distance at thekh er end of the roaof, and we have 62 miles of the-! Plank Road from Fayetteville to- Salisbury more than half of the direct, distance, parallel with other important. Sltatel works. And this unfortunate result is brought abouji byj going'25 mifes out of the way .and making an increaE-i ed cost of $50,000, or just one fourth of the! entire. capital stock of the CompanyT I j It seems hat the citizens of FayetteyiIIe are tusposj: ed to enter into competition with 'the Deep!

Carpenters! Tools, And all kinds of GROCERIES and all other kind of GOODS. We wish to be understood (not blowing and bragging) that we speak the truth when we say that we are open ing at this time THE LARGEST STOCK OF NEW GOODS that has ever been opened in this place ; and as for beauty and style the ladies say we have the prettiest and cheapest they, have yet seen. ; And why should they not say so, when our goods are all entirely new and all bought for cash, and such a large quantity of them. We deem it entirely unnecessary to enumerate all the articles composing our stock, as it has become too fashionable for persons to advertise three or four times as much as they actually nave, but surbce it to say, that we have a well assorted stock of alt kinds of Goods of every description ; and that they are all paid for, and paid for with oor own money With all -these advan tages we think we can safely say that we will sell them a little lower than any of our neighbors, and we would merely say to one and all to give us a call, hear prices, 'examine for yourselves and be your own judges.
