Ths follpwing article writfen in the interest of the Wilmington, Charlotte and Kullierford Kail road, taken from the Wilmington Journal, should be read by everv friend of the enterprise : f AVo do not intend that our citi eens bhall lone sight of this impor tant work if we can help it. The t florts of a ceitain ring ot disre putable men to get possession of the roau through tncicq;Biati;re; their defeat hyaiiother ring equal ly difircputaMc, and the great in jury to the credit and future pros pects of the road, have been a source of much anxiety to the true friends of the Wilmington, Cbar lotta and Kuthcrford Kail road, and of the city of Wilmington. It must be. a source of congratulation to vcry one that its inanagcment.has Veen taken from the control of one who was not only manifestly in competent, but corrupt. s "We trust that it lias been withdrawn polities, and that its affairs will oe managed upon a business ba- us, ana wnn a view to us cany Completion. Beyond doubt, when finished the i Wilmington, Char lotte and Kuthcrford Kailroad will do as much' as any other sim ilar work in the State, to add to the. wealth" of Xorth Carolina, and do more for the prosperity of Wilmington, than 'all-the otner railroads and improvement!) whicl have been completed or projcc'cA for its benefit. It would iheie t'orc be unnatural if we phould not do evervtlnnir in our "power to .fl jbtain this great work, and to uphold the hands of those yho have control or it, 11 we uiMieve they arc honest and zealous in their efforts to( further the com pletion of the road.

Wc have, thus, a future of bound lews prosperity opened before us; and our road becomes an indis pensable public necessity. No matter, then, what changes mav take place 'in, the country, or iii the government, or among the people no matter what disaster may befall us, or to what delays and losses.. wc' may be. subjected, wc leol an abiuing connaence that this very road, eventually, must and will be buiR. If we should fail from the combination of circumstances which are opera ting against us if the road should pass into other hands, and ever) dollar ol our investment be lost t ) us if all which wc have done should lief undone if every man. worhau anachild 'should be driv en out of the country, and stran gers fill their places,' this road will be built because the public necessity demands it. Fish. Wc can remember when fish were abundant in Broad lliver and its tributaries, but year by year tney nave 1 Decomo more scarce till now the remembrance of Shad, fat fish, and other varier ties which once regailed the appe tites of our people, are remem bered as things of the past. This state of things has been brought about by the reection of the damn, across Broad River, at Cherokee Ford, in South Carolina. We are informed that the Leg islature of South; Carolina, when incorporating the Manufacturing Co. at Cherokee Ford, provided for a since for the passage of fish, but it seems that this part of the charter was not complied with, and that the damn extends entire ly across the river. We would be glad to see some thing done to open Broad River to the free passage of fish, and in this connection suggest to our Senator, and the Representatives from Polk, Rutherford and Cleve land, that thev introduce and secure the passage of resolutions, requesting the South Carolina Legislature to pass such acts as will secure the removal of obstruc tions to the free passage offish up Broad Rive.". This, at first glance," may appear to be a small matter, but if proper legislation is had, to open this river, it would amount to thousands of .dollars to our people, besides the delicacies of fresh fish. Friend Justice, wre hope, will make a move in the matter, and we are sure Messrs. McAfee and Garrison will giye him their help. ranee of himself and Ruftts Y. McAden, Wm.

WittWowskv k Hintels is an cstabii shment fo which our citizens may feel justly pioud. The large importation of good which they nnke every season indicates the extent of the trade of oar little city. For several day past Wv.j have been receiving large shipments of goods, an i yesterday we were sbown through their house. Their prints, clot!i. cassimert-s, Jtc, are all purchasid by the case, and of these they every va.icty in large quantities. The retail .r wholesale purchaser need not go beyond Wittkowsky k Rtnte's' for anything he wants. They have as large a supply ol groceries as any house in the city and their stock of boots and shees is noj sur passed in either quality or q'lantity. They have madethe r selection o! ladies dress goodnor the tall aud winter traded w.tb anusual taste and care, and when we were shown iuto the mil linery depaitment, presided over by Miss Betsy Williams, wo were qniet bewildered with the richness' and raiity ot the aritcles there displayed, which the ladies know so well how to appreciate. The s-.-leclion of artificial flowers ribbons, lcM is said to be the rarest and richest ever brought to this market. They are certainly splendid.
