The Raleigh Meeting.
The delegates of th Board of Trade
returned from Rajeigh last night,
whither thy had ben in attendance of
the neetiag in th interest of extend'
iai th A. & N. C R. to Charlotte.
Delegate from Charlotte and several
counties along the propoeed line of ex
unsioa met tham and gave the subject
a thorough discussion, and finally ap
pointed a committee to draw np a char
ter for a new road from Charlotte to
Goldsboro, with provisos that reciprocal
pro rating must be maintained with the
A. AN. C, and that the stockholders
and directors of th two companies can
consolidate the two road upon such
terms as they may agree. It is to pro
vide also that in the tvsot the two are
consolidated; the A & N. C. U must
prorata with the N. C. at the expire
tion of the present lease on the latter
road so long a it will make the pro
rating reciprocal.
If tbe new road can be constructed
under tbe terms of the chatter tone
applied for, it will perhaps give New
Bern and th Eastern section, and
Charlotte, the relief they ar seeking
But we must confess we have but little
eonfliture in th plans proposed for
rauin the funds to construct it.

it becoms a law, have secured the line
to Charlotte beyond a doubt, but for the

not give his consent.

Tbe business men of Charlotte mean
business when they no about a thing

The Trucking Interest is Bound to
Grow.
Often have ws spoken of trucking as
one of our most important interests and
of th magnitude which it is steadily
but surely assuming. Everything favors
sdhsring to the movsment.
The lightness of th soil and the mild
snd evei tempsred atmosphere of tbe
East all along the coast is naturally
adapted to the early and quick growth
of vegetables. Rapid and safe trans
portation for mark st has been much
improved within the last year or two,
and the demand for vegetables and
fruits delivered in good condition is
greatly increasing. ,
The Argonaut, published at Nashville,
N. 0., speaks on this subject as follows:
We came across a few davs airo. a
Trade issue of the Wilmington Messen
ger, issued last June, which, had we
then been editing the Argonaut, w
would have taken great pleasure in
sneaking of in complimentary terms.
weoopyrrom it an article on a truck
farm near Wilmington, and nee it as an
occasion to say that Eastern North
Carolina famishes in the most perfect
degree every condition favorable to

Eailroad the business la oarried on quit
largely. - But tbe eoatt line of counties
f orniah tbe very ben tracking lands in
thiaorany other State. At Elfaibeth
City,. New Bern, and possibly soms
other points, the business b now carried
on to a considerable extent. The con
struction of a railroad fnm New Bern
to Wilmington, referred to in another
article, would open p a country which
would become the trackers' paradU.
Tbe. proximity of th gulf stream to
(his part of the coast of North Carolina
gives it a climat nnequaWd forth

triable soil, easily cultivated, gives It a
peculiar adaptability to tbe cultivation
