CENTRAL ROAD. We understand that the Dircc-
tors of the Wilmington Rail Road Company have
determined TO subscribe fifty thousand dollars to the
Central Rail Road-covenanting to pay for the same
in transportation This is most excellent arrange
ment. While it will be the same as cash to the Cen
tral Road, the payment will not embarrass the Will
mington Road.
We hope this step the part of the Directors of
this Road, will silence forever the groundess COM
plants Of some persons, that people not friend
ly to the Central project. We are anxious for its
accomplishment; and though it would be very i'm
Portant to this road to continue the transportation of
the great Mail, yet the certainty of being de-
pnVed OF that service, would prevent our people
from desiring the success of tho great enterprise.
The citizens here have never been hostile to any gen.
eneral system of improvement. There have been Ca
ses when projects have been entertained with view
to strike directly at prosperity without holding
out eonntervaling good 10 other parts of the State
These malicious blows VIC have endeavored to ward

man nature, under undeserved hostility. But the
hearts desire of this community is, that the Gen.

The AHDucT1oN CASE. This case is assuming an
extraordinary degree of interest, and threatens to be-
come serious in its consequences. There is
now little doubt but that Rey was kidnapped, and
the authorities at Cuba are~strongly suspected of be-
ing connected with the transaction. This infringe
upon American sell calls aloud for redress, and
is we'll calculated to kindle into fame the excite
ment which already exists in the bosoms of the peo
pie In regard to the state of things in Cuba. Our
government cannot, with honor, remain quietly in
different the fate of the unfortunate Rey. Neither
should they wait the slow delay of seeking repara-
tion al fIe court of Madrid.
All sorts of rumors flying through the country
of prompt and decisive steps having been taken at
Washington 70 bring about a speedy ad dustment of
this disagrecabc affair We have reports here in Cur
community concerning the NATTER the authenticity
of which we do not pretend 10 vouch for. One is
that the steamer Allegheny, which sailed from this
port few days snce bound in pursuit of Com
modore Parker with orders to repair with all des-
patch to the Havana with the Home squadron, and
upon refusal Of the authorities there to surrender Rey
upon the peaceful application Of the u S. Consul,
then the Commodore is to demand him at the mouth
Of his Another is, that the destination of
the Fandaa (now ready for sailing) has been chang
ed from the Pacific. and that she has directions to
join without delay the Home Squadron. We say we
do not Youch for these things, but from certain in
dicia there is evidently squall ahead.
There is no fear of war with Spain, or the an
nexatcD ot Cuba, arising out of this Rey difficulty.
We believe that the result will prove an advantage

THE PLANK ROAD.

The Register is mistaken in supposing that We
sought to make political capital against Gov Manly
by publishing the :" array of excerpts " in relation
the Plank Road, to which that paper refers We
published the extracts as we found them 10 various
newspapers, and most of them VAig, at that; anu
our sole design was, as we stated at the tune 10 lay
information the subject before our readers lne
Fayetteville Observer we neither copy from, norTo'
but to show the Register that we have no wish to
Gov. Manly injustice, we shall publish the maU
portion of its article the subject next week. onp
ting of course, those passages which intended~
have political bearing. 8.
We express no opinion as to the correctness :"
Gov. Manly's course in this matter. We only know
that considerable dissatisfaction has been ooS
stoned by the vote he gave in the meeting OEH| =
Stockholders; and that the Plank Road, instead ~
going directly from Fayetteville to Salisbury az"
generally expected it would do, is to be l0caSo
by way of Asheborough and Lexington, thus maADS
an elbow in its routein other words, going some"D1
around the barn to get in at the door," This ~'y
all be right, however Indeed, Gov. Manly, accO'' =
ing to the Register, entertains so much "conte"p'
for those who have censured him for his conduct a
cares SO little for their views or their aOsimS ~'
it is scarcely safe to call his public acts in quesu
and while we leave him in the hands of his Pecu''
friends, Mr.. Boyden, the Salisbury Watchman 'n.
the Hornets Nest, we would at the time ao',,, ~
them to be cautious as well as keen. 1t is an avn
thing to excite the ire and contempt Of the Wv
ernor of sovereign State, and especially one W..
went into power, as Gov. Manly did, with Su'D -
imposing majority in his favor. =.

Pennsylvania, edited by Col. Forney, gentleman
of high character and unquestionable veacity, says
GA gentleman who was in the train which con-
veyed Gen. Taylor from Lancaster to Harrisburg on
Saturday last, gives a laughable account of the
speech of the s' Second Washington to the young
ladies of htount Joya village twelve miles from the
former place. He thanked them for the large ma

their husbands had contributed to the result. This
made the girls litter. He had heard of the at land
of that neighborhood, also of its big horses, and
then there another feraful pause Its waggons!'
Our informant, who is not whg, said he never was
more mortified in his life, and he rejoiced when the
cars moved on
The Register talks about "respect" for the Office
of President and deprecates the ridcule which Gen.
Taylor is provoking, or indeed actually causing.
How did that paper and its party treat Mr.. Polk :
Was he not denounced wicked, corrupt, as having
violated the Constitution which he had sworn to
support and guilty of all the blood and all the
lamities of the Mexican war! And who did this :
Whig leaders, who sympathized with the public foe,
and the Raleigh Register backed them in it. And vet

FoRr WAYNE AND LIMA PLANK RoAD.-We had
the pleasure of ride ON that portion Of the Fort
Wayne and Lima Plank Road now finished. one day
last week, and we glad to the work rapidly
progressing. From the observation permit
ted TO make, we are forced to the conclusion that
Plank Roads decidedly the cheapest and most ben
eicial thorOugbares that be constructed least
through this portion Of the country While the gra
ding and enhancing much less than required for
any other kind of roads, the construction easier, and
the materials for building plenty, they affrd
every facility required for travel and the trnnspora
ton of the produce of the country that could be
looked for in any other public improvement. Since
seeing the Plank Road. and having opportunity to
witness the advantages that may be made to TO
the country from its construction, it matter OF
surprise to us that the people, particularly that por-
ton who will derive from it the immediate BEN
ef not alive to its Importance and dihgent
in their efforts 10 have it speedily completed.
That portion Of the road finished, under
stand, embraces the contracts of Judge Hanna and
Mr.. Jos. Gill both of whom in every way quail
fled for the work. and will discharge with fidelity
their duty agents of the company in completing
the Road.-FOft WGyne Times.
