It iir useless to take measures to attract im migrants from sections of the country which have excellent roads while our miserable patchwork practice of mend ing the highways continues. Nothing impresses a thrifty immigrant so much as well-built roads, which insure easy communication with markets at all sea sons, and the people can agitate for no reform which so nearly concerns their welfare and: the future prosperity of their communities as a systematic and intelligent expenditure of the sums now wasted on the public thoroughfare's." Whatever would apply to the states of Maryland and Vir ginia concerning theii back wardness an the improvement of public roads, will apply with equal or oven greater force to the . State of Wilkes. The road question is much more nearly interwoven with the personal interest of every zitizen and the furture devel opment of; our section tha.t our pebplelwill allow themselves to realize. iThe importance j of proper thoroghfares is regard ed with such favor by modern progress i hat the civilization oi a country or community i is judged by the character of its public roads, and upon this criterion yilkes appears in a very unfavorably lighti With out proper road 'facilities, we have a cumbersome .and insur mountable disadvantage to suc cessfully compete with more favored sections in this matter, in our invitations to capital and desirable immigrants, no matter what attractions and I ! .... i advantages we possess, 'other wise. Yet Wilkes is further behind in the road matter than anything else, because our peo ple have not given the matter proper consideration. Let our people think about this matter. ncsotc. This does not necessa- j of it. We give every man the , Iry kill the force bill, but it right to his own opinions, and i gives it a hard blow, and there we claim as much for ourselves is good reason to hope that the j and expect to express them at elections will still be left free ! pleasure. j and untrammeled by Federal If any matter or person is fin bayonets and hireling's of the correctly stated at any time - in government. . v this paper, it is an error of head and can have the j use of col umns to correct the matter in good faith. If all! this be ? trea son, make ihe most of it. Wilkesborq is doing some creditable things for which we do and have commended her, and her people are anxious to see her build. But it is hardly the part of good policy to pre scribe one citizen because he disagrees with some other citi zen concerning some point, and we do not believe jour citizens will uphold such a policy on second thought. But 'tis best that we all understand, each other. Tf'Q In rhe nlirist of the.

It is expected! to build a new town there and it should have a name operate arid distinct, so that it will in no way be confounded with Wilkesboro. j The name New Williesboro implies an 3ld Wilkesboro, which appella tion would! naturally be eriven to this place. But ; Wilkesboro loes not need the prefix to her lame, and more over it could iot rightfully be applied, as Wilkesboro present and future elates its existence from the ar rival of the R; R.

We are one who believes in Wilkesboro, and have an abundant faith, in her future, but put no faith in one-ideacl chimerical dreams: ours is an idea, of practical u tility; but wo are liberal enough to allow others their opinins. We are for Wilkesboro; it is our home. But we have not as yet been convinced that the post-office is Wilkesboro or that Wilkesboro is the post-office, or that the destiny of Wilkesboro is wrapped up in any oho interest, or enterprise; others may honestly differ without fear of calling forth our maledictions. A good while ago we offered the opinion that it was a waste of time to worry over the depot site, for which we recieved a few such plaudits as "traitor'; yet subsequent events proved the correctness of our opinion. We signed the petition to have both sides of the river- in corporated together. We be lieved it a goqd thing provided each side went into it agreea bly and in good faith Other wise it would be a case of two uncongenial spirits compelled to wed, and attended with f am lly quarrels. Others in town did not sign the petition which was their right and privilege. We have not seen the benefit to the town to make a fight to incorporate the north side a gainst its will. Others did and we'have, found no fault. At Raleigh, the north side offered a compromise by pledging to macadamize the' road to the bridge if Wilkesboro. would withdraw and let the north side be chartered by itself. We were in favor of that," because it would have given us a, good road to the depot, and we be lieved Wilkesboro to be of suf ficient importance and , calibre to successfully care of itself .

Nevertheless we have had no real cold weather. If Februa ry keeps up with the record of its predecessor our winter has not ended yet.
