Tht iiilijert of m railway commiMion for North Carolina kaa not yet entertd the arena of ducuMionin thcLegilature( and will not till th joint select commit mittcc on railway commision reort a bill. Meantime a numljer of bill have been introduced. The mort prominent . among tbcM, nerhaM). are thowt pre tented by Mr. Beddingfield, Mr.Newland and Mr. McDonald. The Ikddingficld bill provide! for the appointment of three communionere one a lawyer, one a farmer, and the third a mechanic, merchant, or Manufacturer one to be appointed for one year, one for two year, and the othef for three yean, and the twceMora of each for three year. Among thenalificatjona attached are theM : None of them cm be nudcr thirty or over fifty yeart of age, and at the time of appointment moat not be in any way connected with any railroad, nor have been an attorney for any railroad corporation in " . certain ntimlwr of .. yeart. .' The commiMionert are to be appointed by the Supreme court; are to be paid Hilary of$2,000each, except thechuirman who will receive $3,500; are to have no paatea, but ihall, pay fare at private citi- tent, and are to receive no gift or employ went of any kind from any company The commMoneni will I fninihed an office at ' the CapiUtl, where they " are r(uird io meet, the fit Monday iu each month, to tranaact all official buai net. They are given iower to Inveati. gate all book of coot panic, to summon - witnesses, administer oaths, take testi mony, &c, and are miuired to make biennial reports to i ne tJeneral Assembly, They arc given the power to fix rates of traffic and passage, the rates not to be the sasM oo all roads, but to be in accord with the surroundings, &c., of each. ; , . This bill is evidently the jirodnct of a ' crude hand.; .rftill rf iibjrethmnblr feat urrs. It ia radically w rung by Its structure; and Imjierfrvt in nearly all its dcUils. The appoiatment of the commissioners by the Supreme jemirt would tic an entur iwrversioa of the legitimate functions of that tribunal, and Is not to be thought of. . The, investment Of the commissioners with alwolt control over freight rates nud paasenger fares would be of doubtful utility, if not seriously injurious to public interests, in that the further investment of capital in railroad enterprises might lie prevented, pr checked, , , , The limitation as to age is senseless, Men between fifty and sixty years art as a general rule in their very prime of man hood, wisdom and intellectual if not physical activity. For instance such a rorision as this would exclude A. M. Waddcll, T,J. Jttrvis, John Hughes, and almost every other man mentioned In ""this chiiection.""

The Kcotch-IrlaU Ucaulou. , Writua for thaCiTUfa.J On the 8th of May. next, will lie held at Columbia, Tenn., a most notable gath. cring of the American representatives of a most remarkable race, tht people wno on the American continent, altera second transplantation, retain, their marked characteristics with such tenacity as still to be designated and honored as the Scotch-Ikihh. While the reunion will find interest in most of the State of the American Union it has special interest for North Carolina for upon her soil was poured a large in fusion of Scotch-Irish blood; and, on that soil, by that race, was originated and en acted the great event of American history the first act and chapter of American Independence. ' These Scotch-Irish are nearly all of Irish birth. They were Lowland rrestiyterian Scotch, removed to tlie'north of Irelund by King James I, to occupy binds uirfcited by the treason of the O'Dougherty. and the Earls of Tyrconnel apd Tyrone. They there never intermingled their blood with that of the native Irish, but were rigidly adherent to tbeir race, tlieir religion and their habits, conspicuous for their indus try, their thrift and theirenterprise.mak ing the north of tlw island utmost the sole Kilt of commerce and mantifiu-tures Tlieir courage never failed them in the times of (icrsccution. When In the days of persecution, when uuder James II tlte Ro man Catholic clement was for a time in tlie ascendant, and the old Irish proprie tors endeavored to regain their lost pos session, they were subjected to miuuta cres as merciless ns recorded in history and to teiges ns memorable as anythot adorn tlie annals of heroic courage. The successes of William, of Orange, brought permanent relief, and henceforward the Scotch-Irish went on to i license and prosper, They were attracted to the new world, and t lure was a large emigration to the North American colonies, chiefly to Pennsylvania, from which they gradu ally drifted southward to piedmont Vir ginia, and subsequently in North Caro lina, forming settlements from tlie Dan to the Catawba rivers. , In one sense, the people of North Caro lina 'may lie homrgeuous. . Pur a hun dred years there has been little infusion of new blood under tlie forces of immi gration. The old stocks, the ' English, the Scotch, the Scotch-Irish, the ticruiuns nd othrrs, luive so jiiU-rn.ijlgUil i to havt blended the whole into one, and no one race is predominant in moral or in tellectual feature, though original race trait often finds marked exnrrssiouif in dividuaUty, Perhaps the distinction is more permanently fixed in the Scotc fa irish than in others. They inherited and maintained tin? loftiest idea of human free dom, and the right of the subject or tht dtixen to participate in the carts nnd du ties of government.. Therefore resistance to tyranny was interwoven in tlieir nu tures, and in this State led to open resist ants to the oppression, of the Hritisli Crown, even to the extent of throwing on allegiance to it, nuking war ami court ing revolution. Tht during courage to haiard everything, peace, fortune, life it self, In the cause of litierty found em phatic expression in the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence, made more than a ytar liefore that of Philadelphia nnd tht sincerity of th frnmer of this instrument was proven afterward by the fiercelrss anil persistence of hostility whkh turned for tht little, town of Clmr kitte bud the county in which h was sit- uated the name of the "Hornets' Nest." ; If th Were intense in their 'mnsion for liberty, they were not less so in their de votion to I lie cause of religion and edu cation. Tliesr are the hnusrhohl godtt they carry with them and set up wher ever they go. Whether In North Carolina or in lVnimylvsniii, the Scotch-Irish, is tlie same devotee of lilierty, tht same obrdicut subject to rightly administered law, tlie same conscientious servant ol religion, tlie same- ebniest ad vucate. of liUrul education, the same good citiieu, tin; same thrifty iiinii of business, the nine industrious and Industrious and in telligent fanner, and .everywhere tlie same, intelligent,, energetic, sagacious nnd genial man, whose characteristics mnik him, without invidious distinction, asqimscssivc of nil the virtues ami pecu liarities of his origin. The name of the Scotch-Irish is iiiNciib- ed on ninny a pagcof .North Caroliua, and also of Anu-rknii ..history.. -Without that '"name there would Iw. iwniy a dis mid blank. The idea' therefore of the Scotch-Irish Voiigress, lit tlie time mid place lixttl, is a happy oikj, well cak u bited to bring out, in full relief, tlie vir tues am lasting influences of this most remnrkahk' branch of our national Inin- liy. - A Wafk lnvrtnscnt.
