To the Editor of the New York Time's :
Sir: There has been lately sent to the

Ives! of North Carolina, "had attached i
himself lo the Church of Rome," and you
farther observe, "his example is very likely
Its have a wide influence upon a consider
able number of bis late clergy."
That the Bishop contemplates such aj
movement as leaving bis own Church for
that of Rome, I think very probable. That
be has already done so, Would be very in
consistent with a letter received from him
.by ...-ihe ...pLfnLw.rU.e.el.diUedPrjs, Decerns
ber 1, and very inconsistent with common
honesty and fairness. If, in stating that
bis example is likely to have a wide in

.late clergy, joti mean that they are likely

I apeak with entire confidence, as far as
one can possibly be confident in such a
case, that a truer body of men to a true
faith, exist no where that there is not the

can be found who is likelyto apostatize ;

A llegro woman belonging to Mrs. El

drowned in Reedy Creek on Sunday even

drunk. On their return home, having to
cross the creek, the woman fell in. when
her husband, being unable to give tbe ne
cessary asssistance, ihe' was drowned".

Plank Roads. We
put,i,su in anoui. r
a nrnepi'i inf s n S
part of this paper the proceedings of a
I'lank Road meeting held h KandoJ,ph
county on the 22 J ultimo, to which we in
vite arttfltibr
was la take preliminary sleps for Uieo
st ruction of a Plank Road connecting with
the Fayetteville and Western road, to
Salisbury. --Tb'e questionia again, there
foreruhniilted to the citizens of this place,
whether or not they desire such a connec
tion with Fayetteville. There can be but
little doubt that this road would be of im-
portant service to our citizens. For ma -
ny miles distant it would serve as a feed
er to the Central Rail Road, and in that
wav contribute to the trade of the place,
and to that extent enhance tbe value q
of Town property. j
We would be glad to have some favor- ;
able indication of feeling on the part of ;
our citizens in relation lo this project to j
mention in connection with the move-
ments of its friends in Randolph. But up
to this time, there has not been that we
have heard, any talk or movement upon
which we. feel authorised to express an
opinion as to w hat may be expected. The
subject is now presented lo them, bow
ever, and we think it is one which merits
the attention of all who are interested in
the business success of Salisbury.
The Plank Road project North, via
Mocksville, is admitted by all to be an
important one to this place, and ihere it
scarcely a man of intelligence but be
lieves the stuck wuuld pay a handsome j
: dividend.
The Rail Road, it is expected,
, a . . . t i
will be completed to this place within
aooui ia motiuis., now important, men.
i . i .L II : . L
that this scheme should be commenced
and pushed forward with all possible
speed. The completion of the Rail Road
will be the signal for an immense of trade
from all tbe counties North and North
west, and from several of the border coun
ties of Virginia ; and with the advantages
of a Plank Road extending through the
heart of those counties, that trade would
inevitably come to thfsjvlace it could-go4
no where else and do as .well. It isi there
fore, high time that something was being
done to secure the construction of this
road, which would, it is believed, even
now, were it in operation, pay expenses
and a handsome profit besides.
We hardly deem it necessary to speak
of the ad vantages to Salisbury, as well as
the country above, which must follow the
building of this road, or of the Value of
,he 8tock were i( in operation. All who
, cnu-inl(1 wilh ln. rommpr
