RAlUtOJtO IN MOHTM CAKO-
UK.
. An article in the Wilmington Mesnen
gcr refers to the work going on in thin
State in railroad extension, but confines
that progress limply to short lints and
the BHing up of missing links. The arti
cle somewhat excepts certain operations
now going on iromthe somewhat re
strictive, though not enfeebling term
"connecting links;" operation of such
magnitude as the road from Vuth
erfbrdton to Cumberland Gap; that
from Durham to Lynchburg; tbnt from
Koaaoke to Winston; that from Tarboro
to Norfolk, and sererat others, ai to sug
gest a distinction without a difference be
tween great lines and connecting links.
However, we will not cavil on that
point, only too glad to know bow much
railroad work is being done to counter
act by artificial meant the obstacle of ad-.
verse topographical conditions.
Late in the day ai is railroad progress
with us as compared with the new, fresh
rigorous States of the northwest, North
Carolina had the honor, not only of
pointing out, but of leading the war in
great enterprises of this character. We
refer we have frequently done it before
to Dr. Joseph Caldwell's earnest effort,
made as fur back as 1827, to construct a
line from Beaufort Harbor to Taint Rock,
a reality now, though more than hulf a
century elapsed before it was made so
to the Payettevilk and Salisbury rood,
chartered and surveyed in 1833, falling
through owing to fatal dissensions
among the directory ) to the Wilmington
and Raleigh road, chartered in 1835-6
afterwards completed and opened in 1H40
as the Wilmington and Weldon rood, the
north terminus having been chunged
from Kaleigb to Weldon to niuke coiiimx
tion at the latter point with lines being
built in Virgiuia ; and the Kukigh and
Gaston road, chartered and finished in
in the same year with the W. &. R.
This latter road deserves a lasting mem
dry in the minds of North Cargliniitns
It was the longest line projected in ainy
part of country except the Baltimore uud
Ohio, It was undertaken by a town with
a white population of less tltun fifteen
hundred, and with an assessed projierty
valuation of not more that $KX),MH),
and it was completed with very little
help from the country along the lint,
which then bad not a town or a villuge
on the road, and it received no aid from
the State, A road of 1 64 miles, built tin
dcr such circumstances, is imperishublc
memorial to the brave, energetic mid u
gacious spirits, who conceived and per
fccted such undertaking.
A trifling, though somewhat curious,
fact i that the first railroad in the State
was that kid in 1832 from the ruins ol
the eapttol, in Raleigh, burned in 1831
to the quarries, one mike southeast, to
transport the granite to be used in re
building. It was a horse road, mid wa
used until 1840.
Other States long since surpassed us
but with present mileage of 2,500, and
great additions in progress, there
nothing for North Carolina now to be
ashamed of.

North Carolina is the subject of statement
or count, whether it is for vuloror whetlier
for illiteracy; whether it is for the nunt
ber of men she sent to the field in the late
war, or whether for the number of chil
dren she did not send to the schools. It
.. it only recently that the question of the
respective merits of the North Carolina
troops and Pickett's Virginians lutrl
full ventilation, we are somewhat in
. dined to think in favor of the former
Nnv sve ftnrl in thf Nrwl and tNinrsr-r
note from a townsman of ours, asking
the N. & C. for correction of what heeon
cores to be an egregious wrong set
forth in the New York Jonrnul of Com
tncrce, in one of those oracular, irrefrng-
ble replies to cormqxindi-nts, oneof whom
solicited inlhrmnliun m to the number of
troop iu theConfederute army furnished
" by the several States resiectively. The
Journal of Commerce gives Md'herson,
. clerk of the House of Representatives, us
authority for the statement that North
- Carolina furnished the prodigious amount
of 23,000 men! Why, some of our coun
ties did almost as much as that. Wr
have not the statistics at hand to correct
such extravagant a misstatement, or
something deserving a harsher name;
lor it ts not probable tnut Mcl'herson
should ignoraatly have gone to witle
of the mark. Any of the Southern
pages on the Door could have corrected
him ; any North Carolina member of Con
gress could have informed him exactly;
for there were uiuC'Southern Brigadiers"
among them. Without being able toglvc
exact figures in this Issue, wee in say that
North Carolina, instead of furnishing 25,
000 men, furnished 125,000 men; and,
including Senior and Junior Reserves,
131,000.
And we gladly publish the concluding
' paragraph of the comment of the News
and Courier on McP berson't statement
with regard to South Carolina: "It
may be mentioned in conclusion, that it
is universally recognised iu the' South
tlutt despite McPherson's extraordi
nary figuret-iNortb Carolina furnished
more troojis to the Confederate armies
than any other Southern State." And
we thank the N. & C. for the spirit of jus
tice that pro.npts it.
When titer question of resmiisiliililr for
tlx bunting ofthe dam which caused the
te enormous destruction of lite and
roerty in tbeConcinatigh Valley comes
p for investigation, there will be little
isposition of indulgence. There is no-
here in this country a very genial tem
per towards those who sequestrate to
the uses of sport and pleasure large bo
dies of land or water, because it strikes
at tlie root at that very American instinct
of free use of all the tenants of the woods
and the waters which nature hatl so pro
fusely distributed for the common good.
Restrictions iniosed on that use unplcas-
cntly suggest the game and fishery laws
which, in Europe, so shaqily define tlie
distinctions of classes, tlie privileges of
the one, and the denials of the oilier. Yet,
while there may be inward rebellious
feelings. Americausbavcalwaysresiected
the rights of property acquired to those
special ends, and been obedient to the
taws which threw the shield of its pro
tection around them. Wrt if it should
apar that those who acquired such ex
clusive right of uses had exercised them
in such a way at to jeopardize the rights,
the lives, the property of others, had
failed in prudent oversight, bad neg
lected prudent safeguards, had disre
garded warnings; had wrapped them
selves up in contemptuous sense ofirre
sponsibility, then they are npt, when
their day comes, to find themselves very
rudely roused from their scll-complaccncy,
and roughly handled, not only at tltc
bar of indignant public opinion, but at
bar which metes out its juilgmeuts in dol
lars and cents, in burs and bolts, if, fort
unately for the subject of "inquisition
for blobd," it goes no Inrther.
That tlie whole American heart is stir
red by the . miseries of any por
tion of those with whom it beats
hi unison it shown by the quick rctponee
to the appcut for relief. Already-three
million dollars have been collected for tlie
Johnstown tuffercrs' The- contributions
of the larger northern cities are munifi
cent in tlie extreme, those of New York
and Philadelphia each exceeding hulf a
million dollurt. The largest sum yet
sent from any southern city is from Au
gusta, $10,000; Charleston had con
tributed about Sti.OOO." The enor
mous wealth of the North, with hundreds
of individual fortunes, reuching from one
million to one hundred milium dollars,
makes tlie obligation of benevolent aid
not only to full more easily, but to bear
more imperatively. To whom much is
given, much is exicctcd. llut thougl
relatively poorer, the Soul hcuimut evade
ill obligation or deny itt debt of grati
tude. Charleston, Memphis, Augusta
Jacksonville, all have hud their hour ol
tribulation, and they were comforted iu
their sorrows, und lurgely so by northern
sympathizers in their tulfcrings.
The Muyllower landed ut Plymouth iu
1620, two hundred and sixty-nine years
ago. A geutlcmuu named Mctson bus
jusr died ut Uuxbury. Muss., ut the ngv
of 97, who remembered tibencaer Cobb,
born iu lG'J-t, died in 1801, who mucin
bcred Peregrine White, who was born in
thecabin ofthe Mayflower und died in
1704. These three lives bidgeover the
gup between the wilderness America and
the empire United States; between the
unpenctruted forest domain ofthe savage
and the splendid dominion of the densely
populated area of the highest enlighten
ment; between a world unknown to his
tory and a world itself muking history,
Albeit the French claim to be bound in
indissoluble sympathy with Americans,
because of ties creutcd iu tltc conduct ol
the " American revolution, they displuy
ttrange Ignorance of American urTuira
and men, amounting to ludicrous aiiiich
ronitm. Gen. Franklin, thcchiel director
of the American brunch of the Exposi
tion, must have tome singular emotions
as he walks the tirectt o( Paris, in the
cyet ofthe rurul, if riot the city, French,
the resuscitated Ik-n Franklin of one
hundred years ago, the idol of the popu
lace. It it pleasant, or it may be other
wise, to profit by a dead miin't fame
We take the following from tlie Rich
mond Despatch:
, The Tribune hut interviewed a Doctor
from California who is now in New York
On the way from New Orleans to Ne
York the 'Doctor heard tlie Pullman

"When 1 mil down in New Orleans
