For Uio Carolina Era.
Raising and Fattening Cattlp and
Sheep.
In order to come fully Up to tho stan
dard and practice of a thrifty and suc
cessful cultivator of the soil, every for
mer should calculate to keep some kind
of stock neat cattle or sheep to con
sumo and to work Into manure the corn
stalks, straw and coarse erain. It is.
and always has been, and always will
be. "penny-wise and pound-foolish"
policy to keep poor animals, or to keep
animals poor. It has ever been a mys
tery that I could not unravel, why
multitudes of farmers could be so re
gardless of their own Interests a3 to
allow their animals to come Into the
barn-yard in a thrifty, fleshy condition
in late autumn, and to return to the
pasture In the succccdingspring greatly
emaciated, like the lean kine of Pha
raoh, Gcn.41:3. It is the worst policy on
the whole farm to allow animals ofany
kind to grow poor. A farmer should
not attempt to keep one more animal
than he can keep in a growing and
thrifty condition. It will be far better
to keen one good cow, or calf, or bul
lock, or sheep, and allow it to have all
- it can eat, and a little to spare, than to
keep so many that they must gnaw all
day beroro they will be able to nil
themselves. And, besides, it is a bad
policy to have grass gnawed into the
earth at any season of the year: and
especially In late autumn and early in
the spring. Most farmers try to keep
too manjr half-starved animals. But
is a practice that deserves the severest
condemnation. One good well-fed cow
will yield more milk, and butter, or
cheese than two half-fed, poverty-stnek
en cows. It will be far better for the
farmer, and better every wayt to keep
cows so well, that they will yield milk
enough to produce from two to three
hundred pounds of butter each in a
year, than it will be to keep so many
that not more than one hundred pounds
can be . realized from each cow. And
It will be more profitable to keep but
one hog, or one sheep, or fat steer, than
to allow two animals to be fattened and
an allowance that'one would consume
I have always acted on the policy
that it is better to save a pound of fat
or flesh than to attempt to produce it;
and it Is better for a farm better for a
man's pocket better for animals, and
Infinitely moro satisfactory in every
noint of view to nrotect animals from
the inclement cold and pelting storms
than it is to compel them to protect
themselves. Every cold and stormy
night that an animal is compelled to
lie out unprotected,, costs his owner
not less than the price of a lb. of the best
flesh or tallow. This assertion can not be
reputed. And many times it will cast
him as much in cash material as he
wold be obliged to pay for his own
lodging for a night at a good country
hotel. No farmer should .think of at
tempting to keep any animals in a cli
mate like ours without suitable sheds
or stables for protection during autum
nal and winter storms. One severe
storm in cold weather will use up more
of an animal's fat and flesh, if it i3 not
protected, than it will gain in seven
days. Animals are composed of flesh
and blood ; and they, like us, experience
the &ime inconvenience, in a measure,
that we would if unprotected.

- The Farm, Garden and Firc-Sidc.
Tarm, Garden, lire-sidel What de
lightful visions and holy associations
cluster around these words. What
recollections they call up : thoughts '? of
childhood and youth ; of home tho old
farm, the garden and the fire-side.
How it stirs up the memory of the past
r to utter these words ; how our recollec
' tions flow back, quick as electrick
- sparks to the old place, the old home
where we passed our halycon days J
We think of the fields and the woos
where, once we rambled in search of
wild-flowers and wild fruits; where we
chased the smiirrcl from the ears ripens
ing corn ; ana where, with rapt delight,
we 'listened to the caroling of birds, and
zenhvr's soothinir voice. We think of
the garden where we chased the butter
flies, and ran races with the bees; Of
its beautiful flowers, the like of which
we never see now-a-days. And we
think of the fire-side, that holy spot,
. we all Hither, mother, brothers and
sisters used to assemble when the
day's work was done, to read our little
books, recount our little griefs, and lis
ten to the words of admonition from'
lips now silent beneath the turf. Oh !
that, spot, the family fire-side, is the
holiest place on .earth" to us the Meca
to which every heart instinctively
turns in its, wanderings to and fro in
this world of dire disappointment and
sorrows. .
, .Nor are these outnowings 01 tne Hu
man heart to the homes and scenes of
childhood to be suppressed. Nor is it
a mark of weakness to recur, in menv
ory's fond review, back to tho holy as
sociations that centre around theheartlv
stones where first we sav the light.
It is but an expression of the divinity
within us, a sign that all holy thoughts
have not entirely forsaken our bosoms.
They arc thoughts to be cherished and
valued: feelings that we should culti
vate. That heart is not entirely lost
to virtue, or incapable of reformation,
that in all its wanderings and devia
tions from rectitude, still turns with
fond recollection to the home and as
sociations of its childhood. ' ,
This fact is pregnant with food; for
thought lor the fathers and mothers of
the rising generation. Herein is a
means, if no other existed, of saving
our children from an utter alienation '
from all that is good, true and sacred.
I5y throwing around tho tender ago of
our children pleasant scenes and agree
able, though innocent, recreations and
amusements, we imbue their plastic
minds with a love of the beautiful, and
a taste for the quiet and lovely scenes
of home life, that no after vicissitudes
or change of fortune will ever entirely
eradicate from their memories. The
man or woman whose child-days havp f
been passed am id the surroundings oi
fruits, birds and flowers, of neatness,
books and pictures, love, order and
auiet, will ever manifest a fondness for
such scenes, ana icei a longic
aspira- i
tion to be the owner of a rural home
where thi3 bent of the mind may be
gratified in the care and training of
plants and flowers, and the various
etceteras that make up an agreeable
and lovely home. - !
How important then, not only for
ourselves, but for our children, that we
make our homes pleasant. What a
rfoiir!itfnl retreat from tho cares and
turmoils of life is a neat little cottage,
enncir hid awav behind a wilderness
of fruits and flowers, and where within
we find neatness and order, books and
pictures, smiling faces and loving
hearts. O, who does not wish to have

tho Clark seceding would-be directory
of the A. & N. C. R. It., made applica
tion to Judge Dick, of the Supreme
Court, in Chambers at Raleigh, for an
Inlunction acrainst the present Direc
tory of the road. In addition to the
granting of an injunction, they allege
and pray that the present management
Is and was receiving $8,000 per month,
nnrl which sum thev demand shall be
paid to them. i
That the defendants are usurpers ;
that no securities exist for the moneys
paid in, or the proper disbursement of
the same. f
The following is , a copy of the affi
davit upon which the injunction In
this ease was erranted. to-wit : f
"That the nlaintilfs have been in
formed and believe and charere the fact
so to be. that the defendants are in
communication with the President of
tht Pennsylvania i Railroad, with a
view to leasing the Atlantic dj North
Girolina Railroad for a term of years
tn the corporation aforesaid, a part of
whom have left for the North for that
purpose, as is reported and belifeved by
the plaintiffs, and they believe it the
purpose, from information received by
them and upon which they rely, of the
defendants to lease and disposo of the
last mentioned road. Among other
reasons, with a view to prevent the
same coming into the hands of the
plaintiffs, (relators,) who alond in law
are entitled to the same as the duly
elected and appointed President and
Directors of said Atlantic & North Car
olina Railroad Company, of which the
plaintiffs, by virtue of their said office
and as stockholders in said corpora
tion, complain and seek relief.
That they have made formal demand
for the property and been refused, and
still continue to be refused, and that a
summons has been I issued against the
defendants, returnable to the next
term of court, and that plaintiffs have
the permission of the Attorney Gener
al to prosecute the suit.
Wherefore the plaintiffs demand judg
ment as follows:
That the rights of the parties be de
clared, and that the defendants! are not
entitled to and they be ousted from of
fice, and that the plaintiff's be permit
ted to enter into and hold the same;
that the defendants be held to bail in
the money unlawfully received.
That the defendants be enjoined and
restrained from leasing or disppsing of
the road in any way, or transfer to give
away, any of the property except to
the plaintiff, and that a receiver be ap
pointed to take charge of the aforesaid
road, and the property and buiiness of
the said corporation.

JUDGE DICK, j
Upon the foregoing, Judge Dick de
livered the following opinion f
" The principal question presented in
this controversy is whether the plain
tiffs or defendants are tht lawful offi
cers and agents of the Atlantic & !N orth
Carolina Railroad Company. !
The plaintiffs claim authority to con
tinue the affairs of said corporation by
virtue of appointments made r and an
organization effected under ah Act of
General Assembly, ratified the 0th day
of April. 1S71.
The defendants are in . possession of
the property and exercise the franchises
of said corporation by virtueof appoint
ments made by the uovcrnor oi tne
State, and an cnranization eilqcted un
der the charter of the Company, and
other acts of the Legislature. Consti
tutional Questions as to the powers of
the Executive and Iegislativebranches
of the government, are involved in the
controversy which are of great impor-
controversy

The plaintiffs have but a small indi
vidual interest in the money and prop
erty of the Railroad Company received
and held by the defendants, who are
exercising the franchises of said corpo
ration under at least a color tof right

There is an allegation in the c

the further order of the Judge of the
3rd Judicial District of this State.
The facts as presented at this stage of
the proceedings do not authorize me to

'
Tor the causes stated in tho foregoing
affidavit and by order of Judge Dick,
Superior Court Clerk West has issued
the injunction, and has issued the proper
notices in connection with the same.
Thus at present does the Railroad
controversy stand. This is but the first
step toward getting the entire question
before the Supreme Court, for in all
Srobability, no matter how his Honor,
udge Clarke may decide, an appeal
will be taken to that tribunal.

EUROPEAN IMMIGRATION TO NORTH
CAROLINA.
i
HOW TO SECURE IT.
UNITED STATES CONSULATE,
;Stetti2J, Prussia. Oct. 17tb, 1871. (
JTt Excellency, Governor Calduell:
Dear Sir : Although I have not the
pleasure of knowing you personally, I hope
you will permit me, a inena, to mase
lew surrestions in regard to immigration
into my native State North Carolina.
Sir, it is a fact, but too well known that
large numbers of persons, of both colors,
are continually leaving our State for the
more propitious, as thev imagine. States
of the far South, and I fear that unless
very importaut and speedy measures are
taken to secure immigration into that
State, the next decade will show a decrease
in our population.
1 We certainly possess the advantages of
other States farther South as regards the
mildness of climate. We know not the
rigidness of the North nor the heat of the
South. We have not the yellow lever ana
chills of Florida, nor the pulmonary dis
eases of Maine, Dor the ague breeding
nor'westers of Minnesota. In this respect
ouriclimate is peculiarly adapted for the
European immigrant, from Italy to Den
.mark, both inclusive.
j. Our lands upon the wnole are medium
ourj State is naturally divided so as to suit
ihctculture of a great variety of products,
with a moderate yield of each. We can
raise cotton and rice in the eastern section,
cotton and tobacco in the middle section,
and wheat, oats and barley in the western
section. Corn can be raised over the
whole State, and we certainly have the
monopoly of ' tar pitch and turpentine."
We' furnish the world with rosin, if we ex
cept a small quantity of an inferior quali
ty pjoduced in France. Our forests abound
iii the best timber. Our water powers are
finefand lasting. In mineral wealth North
Carolina is not excelled by any other State
east of the Mississippi river. Excellent
Iruits grow with and without culture.
Access to railroads and navigable waters,
in most parts, is not difficult.
, Then, sir, in order to turn these vast re
sources into profit, we must go to work in
earliest to obtain a share of the European
immigration. The prevailing idea in Ger
many is that the climate or North Caro
Jind'is as ljot and unhealthy as in other
States farther South in other words, that
fever arid ague are prevalent there through
out; summer and winter, and yellow fever
always in summer. So long a3 these opin
ions are not refuted, immigration will be
deterred from going there. There is a
very good kind of people now leaving
Italr for America. I do not. mean the
hizalnni' organ-grinders, but the sturdy,
rebfist, Italian farmer, who is noted for
li is energy, industry and peaceable nature.
I imagine this class of' people might easily
be persuaded to go South but some in
ducement must be held out in the shape
of cheap lands and easy terms.
First of all, however, pamphlets should
be published, giving in detail, the facts in
regard to the resources of the State. If
possible Uhey should be printed in dif
tertjit languages, and sent to the United
Stares Consuls in the different European
ic.juntries, who will distribute them. The
chief point is that they be j published by
"authority." I know, indeed, of several
immigration societies who have published
undi'flisscminatcd books without a scm
ib'iance of State or National aid or authori
ty. 'When such is the case it is looked
upon I. y outsiders as "a put up swindle"
in tjhe interest onjy, of the ptrties con
cerned, no matter how pure may.be the
motives by hich the society is actuated.
Alter this has been done, contracts must
andf can be made with the Railroad and
Stftt'm boat lines, by which a reduction of
fare, is obtained. New York city will for
a long time2continue to be the chief point
of Arrival of immigrants, owing to the
general uhhealthiness of Southern cities in
sumauer, hence wc must expect to get our
immigrants irom that city. On all the
rail mad lines from there to the west a re
duction qf fare is guaranteed to the im
mirant. j
Uhtil Something is done to secure a
shart of the European immigration to our
State, to plear our forests, till our soil, and
develop our mineral resources, we cannot
ixpect toi prosper as a State. ,.

A'tTELLING KEBUKE TO SOUTHERN
AuiiOGANCE. Hon. B. H. Hill, of
Geonria. in a. recent address before the
Alumni of the State University, al
luded to the 'evils which had been
brought upon the South by slavery,
and-as a consequence, a large part of
the Georgian press opened upon him
with the most violent denunciations.
This led Mr. Hill to write a letter, in
which appears the following para
graphs: -
With every ingredient more abund
ant at home, we send to the originally
barren North fbrfertilizers to give life
to our originally fertile, now deadened
soil ; with the finest ores and exhaust
less coal beds peeping at us from our
own' hill sides; with the richest land
on the continent, we send North for
breajl to feed our children; with the
noblest trees that ever lifted their tops
toward heaven, if we want a finer
churcjf in which to worship or a, more
convenient residence in which to live,
we send North for the plan, for the
architect, and. for the builder! We
spend millions of dollars sending our
children to the North to be educated,
and refuse the smallest pittance for the
endawnment of universities at liome.
Our physicians and surgeons send
North for their medicines to heal, and
for the tools that secure skill in their
delicate art; our lawyers send North
for the books in which to learn the rule
of justice for our people ; our preachers
send : North for commentaries on the
Bible, to teach their flocks tho way of
salvation; our editors send North for
typo to print their paper ; and lawyers,
preachers and editors make long
speeches, say

Bishop A. W. Wajnian j
Messes Editors: This distinguished
prelate of the African M. E. Church,
was in our citjron SabbathJast, paying
his annual visit. The Bishop was born
in Caroline county, JMd.. bept. A. v.
1 821 . His parents were among the first
members of the powerful organizatins
of which he is now a isishop. lie was
converted, and ioined the Church
March 29d. 1837, and was made Bishop
bv the sreneral conference which con
vened in Philadelphia in 1SG4. At the
close of the War he was appointed to
suDerintend the Conference District
composed of the District of Columbia,
Maryland. Virginia, North and South
Carolina and perhaps some other States.
He entered upon his work with a will;
and has labored hard for the elevation
of our people. We are glad to know
that throughout his field I of labor he
has made large numbers of warm and
lasting friends among all classes, color?
and denominations. His annual visits
are the occasions of great pleasure and
religious enioyment among the Church
es of his charge; his presence seems to
create those seasons of christian love
and haoDiness. known only to the
humble and obedient follower. On
Sabbath morning according to previous
announcement, the Bishop occupied tne
pulpit of his Church in this city, and
preached to a large congregation, from
Rev. 2 ch, 10 verso. " Be thou faithful
unto death, and I will give thee a crown
of life."
As usual he preached a plain, earnest,
thoughtful and effective sermon. Of
his discourse on this occasion it is suffi
cient to say, that it fully
met the ex-
pectation of all who heard
him. As a

Of dignified mien, easy gestures, and a

the afternoon he addressed the young
people of the city, more especially the
young men, on ine suDjeci oi tneir

mental, moral and religious culture,
choosing as a text 1 John 2ch, 14 verse.
" I have written unto you young men
because you are strong." j As in the
forenoon,' the discourse was able, elo
quent and impressive, and it is hoped
and believed that much substantial
good will result from his Jearnest effort
to impress upon the young, the value
of good principles and th0 importance
of acquiring and putting them in prac
tice while voung: of the dangers that
beset theway of life, and how they
may b6 avoided and overcome, &c.
At the conclusion of his discourse, the
following very pleasent episode occured,
which will serve , to somo extent, to
show the respect and esteem in which
the Bishoo is held by our people. Just
before the services were! commenced
the Wavman Debatinsr Lyceum, a so
cietv of voung men having for its object
tne mental ana moral improvement iu
- . cr a.
its members, entered the Church in a
bod v I headed bv their president and
other j officers, and occupied pews di
ectlv in front of the pulpit. "When the
Bishop had concluded and after a few
verses by the choir, Messrs. w. li.
Davis, (President), A. 14 Gorham, J.
W. Butler. Frank Thomas, and Turner
Evans, entered the alter, and on behalf
of the society, and as a faint expression
of the respected confidence and esteem
in which he is held by our citizens,
presented the Bishop with a handsome
and fine hat. Mr. Davis
the hat said :
in presenting

long and untiring ardorj on the great
work of elevating, educating, and chris

not the gift may be regarded as a mani
festation of our appreciation We pray
that God may give you renewed strength
continually to perform the great work
in which you are engaged.
After thanking the society for the
present, the Bishop requested Bev. G.
W. Brodie to make a lfv remarks to
the young men in his behalf, which he
did in his usual happy style, much to
the encouragement of the members of
the society and the - edification of the
whole consrregation. The Bishop again

The Fatigue of Washing Day no Loiil

Dreaded, but Economy, Efficiency, a
Clean Clothing, Sure. j i I
In calling public attention to this little
machine, a lew of the invaluable qualitii'S ,
(not ' possessed by any other washing wa
chine yet invented,) are here enumerated!
it is. the smallest, most compact, imt
portable, most simple in construction, most
easily operated. A child ten years old, w Jth
a few hours practice, can thoroughly com
prehend and effectually use it. There is no
adjusting, no screws to annoy, 110 delay in
adaotin&r! It is alwavs readv for use! lit
.is a perfect little wonder 1 It is a miniatqro
giant, doing more work and or & better;
quality, than the most elaborate and costly. I
One half of the labor is fully saved by ts
use, and the clothes will last one-half Ioniser
than by tho old. plan of the rub board, jit
will wash the largest blankets Three shifts
at a time, washing thoroughly I In a word,
the ablution ofany fabric, from a Quilt to a
Jace curtain or cambric Handkerchief, aro
equally within the capacity of this LITTLE
GEM I i It can be fastened to anv tub and
taken off at will. i
No matter how deep rooted a prejudice
may exist against Washinor Machines, the
moment this little machine is seen to per
form its wonders, all doubts of its cleansinir
efficacyi and utility are banished, and the
doubter and detractor at oncer become the
fast friends of the machine. 1 ! "
Wo have testimonials without end. scttinir
forth its numerous advantages over all oth
ers, and from hundreds who have thrown
aside the unwieldy, useless machines, which '
have siornallv failed to accomplish tho hb-
iect promised in prominent and loud soufid
ing advertisements. , ! j I J
It is as perfect for washinor as a wrinrrdr t
for wringing. The price another paramount
inducement to purchasers, has been placed
so low that it is within tho' reach of every
housekeeper, and thero is no article of Idor
mestic economy that will repay tho smftll
investment so soon. . : i
All that is asked for this QREAT LAI ton
