Ono of tho greatest needs of tho sec tion embracod by Rutherford and ad- j lOinin? counties 1 a frond nnd mnnliln Cotton Factory. Wo need it because, established in the vocabulary of. a peo firstit would afford a home market ! P, "ie3 to most mimls a defimte for the hundreds if not thousands of bales of cotton, annually shipped from the region designated, to CLarlotto and Spartanburg or further North, a: a heavy expense to tho producers so heavy, in fact, as to discourage tho cul tivation of this valuablo staple. Sec ond because it would distribute life and currency throughout tho adjacent country, by giving employment to a number of operatives, who must havo food, fuel, and other nrcessaiies of life, which the country is abundantly capa- blo of PnMioiiijfi. Tinul because it would reduco the prico of domestic goods, whilo it enhanced tho profits of iabor, and in a dozen ways which 70 neod not specify, would bo a benefit to tho neighborhood and tho State. We do not expect any person to ques tion these advantages, but wo may an ticipate tho query "will it pay ?" Let us look, then, at a few facts in connection with tho debit and crodit side of tho question : A Factory with 4,000 spindles may bo built and equip ped for fifty thousand dollars. Per haps, in a country liko ours, with its magnificent water-r over3 and abun dant timber, and tho conveniences of .Railroad transportation, which it will shortly havo, tho figures might bo somewhat reduced. Such a Factory of 4,000 spindles would givo employment to 100 porsons, operatives and general workmen, and would have tho capacity to work up nearly ono thousand bales of cotton annually tho profits on which, should bo twenty thousand dol lars, or about 05 per cent, of iho prin cipal invested. These figures aro not exaggerated, r.s any ono who has in formed him self on tlio subject will read ily cee. What investment, then, is more profitable than this? A few years' run would suffice to replace tho original capital and establish tho enter prise on a substantial basis.

Tho project, says the Carolina Times, for forming a new party seems to have met with as great a failure as it deserv ed. Name in the abstract means noth- ino It might have been what it is or idea. Thus, tho generic term man, might have been something else, and yet might have conveyed tho very saino idea that is now attached to that term. Would it not be ridiculous to ehango it now, and what confusion would ensue ? The country has got accustomed to cer tain party names which carries to the mind of tlio masses, definite and dis tinct ideas of principles or expediencies, d it is not only useless but danger- ous to attempt at this late day to change or to dr away m'th them. Tho party (called by whatever namo you choose) that supported Seymour and Blair in the last Presidential election was, un questionably, the best combination of voters that ever existed in this country. And why? Because it was composed of tho best men, of both tho old con stitutional parties, that had heretofore claimed the attention, tho support, and divided tho country on questions in volving a proper construction of tho constitution. Tho office-seeking, loose thinking, lax-principled, havo joined the Radicals, whilo tho patriotic old Whigs and Democrats have united and now compose what is called Conserva tive and sometimes tho Democratic party. This party contains tho hon esty, tho ability, the patriuli m, and tho confidence of tho country, with a plat form comprehensive enough to hold all those who desire to drivo Radicalism from power, and to restore tho govern ment to a constitutional basis. If the present Conservative party can't do that no other party can. Rumored. Vi e havo heard that very recently a contract has been given out by tho new managers of tlio W. V. & 11.

Wo are not railroad builders, but wo aro loth to believe that any such extravagant price is to bo paid for such work. Tho four millions of 6tato bonds granted or par, will build but very short reaches oi railroad at the rates which the above stated rumor reports.

Eyory obstacle will bo thrown in the way of tho Company by the enemies of the lload, but we believe the people of this lection are too much alive to their t own welfare to allow partisan-fcelin ! or prejudice to - oppose any means which may be used, whereby tho great work may bo finished. Wo want the Road ; we care not who manages Radical or Democrat and whether the present Company or another may have the management, no factious opposition to tho great intorests of this section will receive our countenance.

Such reckless profligacy on tho part of a legislative body has no parallel in ancient or modern times. We ask the people to say what they think of theso figures. Tho Legislature appropriated money as follows, to wit : 1 For the Chatham Tl. II Co., .... $2,000,000 2 For the V X. C. Ii. II. Co., 7,000,000 3 For tho W. C. & R. K.

We will add to them hereafter. This does not include tho 100,000 Penitentiary swindle. Just think of it, people of North Carolina ! Twenty-six millions, nine hundred and seventy thousand dollars, appropriated in the interest of tho great 41 Bailroad Ring" by which "carpet-baggers" and a few others aro to grotv rich, whilo you groan and toil pay this astounding sum. Tho bonds of tho State are used, of course, to pay 4li!u 1n1.t on1 flioxr e.M T.-r" nlimit ihirtti- three cents in go)d, so that this sum of bond will t.roduce. in cash, about $8,990,000. Thus it is expected tho ho'nest'peoplo of tlw State are to pay $-J(,970,000 with interest on this sum, paid 'semi-annually, for $8,990,000. Can a people prosper at that rate? O, shame where is thy blush ! It is mon strous beyond expression! And yet North Carolinians sit still and let the vandals in power rob them thus ! Is there no manhood left in the people ? Will they not arrest these infamous villanies? Of this sum of $8,990,000, it is safe to say that a third of it goes to tho " Ring." This will reduco the sum realized. How much of thi3 fraudulent debt the Supreme Court will invalidate we can't now tell. We will give more in formation in this behalf in a day or two. Who did this work ?

Text Hooks for the Public Schools Another Peni tentiary Swindle. Our readers have noticed, perhaps, tho list of Text Books recently ndopted by the Board of Education, for the use of the Public Schools. -Agents of a number of Publishers have, for weeks j past, been canvassing before the Board tho merits of tho several series of School Books published by the Houses mujr iiptrchiteijr rupruauuiou. o.u me disgust and surprise of intelligent peo ple everywhere, the National Scries of Books, need heretofore almost exclusively in ths negro School, was adopted with one or two trivial exceptions. We have come into possession of a few pertinent facts in relation to this latest iniquity of tho powers that be. We propose to ventilate a few of these in this issue, leaving extended comment for the fu ture. Tho facts, as furnished us, are these : McGulTey's Eeaders, the most popular series in this section, were shown to be in at least three-fourths of tho white schools in the State. They were offer ed to the Board for introductory pur poses at one-half the retail prices. In case of their adoption tho publishers were to doxate ten thousand dollar worth of their books fur distribution among tho indigent children of the State. Tho Readers published by A. S.Barnes & Co., and used In scarcely any schools outside of tho colored ones, were adopt ed, at ten per cm. .M'xce on their retail prices The Board agreed then to pay Barries tea per rent, inure than was asked by the publishers of McGuf fey, and ni:r:uvKB the State of the ben efits of the liberal donation of ten thou sand dollars! Tho Agent of D. Appleton & Co., offered the Board Qcackexbos' Abith met:cs, acknowledged by all competent Teachers as vastly superior to Davies, and pronounced by Bankers and busi ness men of this city, in the hearing of members of tho Board, to be superior, in their discussion of commercial mat ters, to any arithmetics they ever saw, at prices largely below those of Dacles, and yet they adopted Daces. We ap plied to Mr. Conuor for the figures, and ho handed us the following : Davies' An it mi et ics. Adopted ly the Board.) Davies Primary, 14 cents. tc Elements, 2o " Intellectual, 23 " Practical, 50 " it Qcackexbos' AnnniiETics. (As offered to the Board.) Quackcnbos' Primary, 10 cents. Elementarv, 20 Mental, ' 20 Practical. 40 (i ( it It will bo seen that Quackenbos would cost tlio p-apil ticenty-tico cent per set less than Davies will cost them. Tho Board therefore compels the chil dren of the State to pay tho publishers of Dalies' Arithmetics for 10o,U00 sets, just tirenty-tu-o thousand dollars more than they would have had to pay tho Apple ton's had the Board adopted Quack enbos' Arithmetics. Mr. Conner informs us also that ho OiTci'cd to c-xch.i'i'o even a new Quack enbos' Arithmetic for every old and new copy of Davies that might bo in tho hauls of tho pupils. The Super intendent, however, scouted that prop osition and declared tho people did not want to go to the trouble of making an exchange ; he, to savo North Carolini ans from trouble, compels their children to uso inferior books, and to pay for this generous consideration tens of thou s: aids of dollars into the pockets of his favorite publisher, which might have been saved them, had he consented to allow thoir children to exte nd one hand with an old torn copy of JDavies, and receive in tho other a new and perfect copy of Quackenbos. Singular kind ness, Mr. 'Ashley ! - ,.. Iet all VTork. It is as good advico as wo may find in tho sacred writings tlit what one's "hands find to do, that should be done with tho might." It is no less true that abundance of work exists for every honorable honest man, and ho is both dishonorable and inclined to be dishon est who seeks to livo without labor anel to prey on his fellowmen. Thousands of men who talk of having "seen better times" find sufficient excuse in this statement for listless inaction, while all the work day world surrounds them with its delightful bustle and activity, and the prizes of lif- nr0 grasped by eager hands, but yeai . y the property of other men and women. On the chil dren of intelligent irents thv weigh j of responsibility rests that canuot bo shaken olf. He to whom much has been given shall have much required of him, and he-is a dastard and a slave in soul ho refuses to assist in bearing the burdens of our common humanity. I The highest honors are now bestowed upon the honorable worker, and tho re- wards are commensurate witn tne neia ot labor both great. Rather than idle about tho cities and villages we hope our unomployod people will seek the open country and there, like the father of all men, labor to secure the "fruits of the earth" vouchafed to us by an All Merciful l?rcvidence. The whines of laziness ; of pride ; or of ignorance can excuse none who have eyes to see or arms to raise.
