RALEIGH AND CASTOR ROAD.

We are under obligations to friend who was
present. for the interesting account in another part of
paper to-day of the recent meeting of the stock
holders of the Raleigh and CASTOR Road at War
renton.
1t will be seen that the Directors will assemble in
this place Thursday next for the transaction of
business, when a President and Engineer will no
doubt be elected.
1t will be observed that Norfolk came forward with
subscription of thirty thousand dollars, and was
thus to considerable extent instrumental in saving
the charter at a moment of much doubt and difficult
ty. The agent of an Iron Company also subscribed
wenty-nine thousand dollars, 10 be paid in iron to be
delivered at City Points and Mr.. Bird, the President
of the Petersburg Road, also subscribed nine thou
sand seven hundred dollars, to be paid, presume,
by the transportation of the iron from City Point to
the CASTOR Road.
The Norfolk papers speak in glowing terms of the
Speech of Gen. Saunders in that place in behalf OF
the Road. Under the influence of his efforts, the
people of Norfolk Delegation to Warrenton,
who subscribed thirty thousand dollars at once, with
an assurance that twenty thousand more would be
raised in that City before the LIST Of October if that
amount should be found necessary to secure the
charter.
We learn that the Company will commence the re-
construction of the Road forthwth and carry it for
ward with untring energy.
This Road cost originally $1,000 600; and under
the present charter $4OO,O 900 will be expended
upon it. Thus the half Of IS miles of Rail Road
costing % 900 600 will have been obtained by the
present stockholders for the sum of $4OO, 0O0 and
when laid down with iron, and if well managed, the
stock must pay TO the State and the stockholders at
least six per cent. upon the investment of 100000.
We congratulate all concerned upon the success of
the enterprise and hope it may rebound greatly
the interest and advantage of both the stockhold-
ers and the State. $50 F---s ss.e-r y

GFor the Standard.1

Mr.. HOLDEN. The public would like 10 know what
has become of the North Carolina Rail Road. This
is idle inquiry my part for if any thing DOING
except by some two three contractors the Iine
for one l am ignorant of it. OF the President and
Engineer nothing has been heard for some time,
believe, except that they have been soourning the
Virginia Springs. 1t has now been upwards Of two
months since the adjournment of the meeting of the
Stockholders, during which time these officers, in
the receipt of their salaries at the rates of five thou
sand five hundred dollars have been absent from the
State.
1t is to be hoped that the officers about 10 be elected
for the Raleigh and Gastcn Road may not prove so
inattentive their duties. Let have President
who will be able give his attention the duties Of
the office; for whether his salary be high low, if
he undertakes these duties he should discharge them.
AS to the Chief Engineer of the CASTOR Road, lei
US haze his IUhOLe time The work is surely of su-
cient importance, both to the State and the stockho
ders require the whole time and the best attention
of its officers. No more of your Chief Engineer
with his Office in Richmond. "a word to the wise
is sufficient A STOCKHOLDERS.

jim EDNEY ON CUBA. We dislike to seriously
notice any thing emanating from that prince of all
fooldom Jim Edney but there is an editorial arti-
Gle in his last paper upon Cuban affairs that we do
not believe any patriot read without feeling the
blush of shame flushing his cheeks to think that the
writer nurtured in land Of liberty. The ma
Lightly, the cold inhumanity the gall and bitterness
mingled with the nonsensical would-be witticisms
that characterize the whole article, transcend
the diabocal spirit of the Spanish butchers, the
yet more abandoned cruelty of the ruthless mob
that mutilated and dragged through the streets of
Havana the lifeless bodies of our murdered coun-
trymen. Those countrymen he denounces as " out
laws and desperadoes," and he prays that the time
may come soon when " there will be several trait
ors dangling in the air on this side of Cuba" He
believes that all who assist the Cubans ought to
be taken Immediately out and hanged upon the
first tree fround in the forest, till they were pro-
nounced dead to all eternity; perfectly regardless
of age, color, sex or condition" He says the
United States "stole" Oregon, "pilfered :" Texas,
and hooked California, and that all these plum
ders were unnecessary"
These are only few of his beauties. We did
not think there SO degraded spirit in our coun
try; we dreamed not of heart so calous as not to
feel at least warm and generous sympathy for our
and for the cause of Cuban freedom.
The heart that could conceive such sentiments has
not spark of manly feeling in it-has not even
common humanity. Lay it bare, as it is here laid,
and you see nothing but SELF cold, icy, callous,
mean, vile, with the cruelty of the savage without
the redeeming traits of courage and generosity.
Such sentiments will damn him even to a lower
depth than that to which he has already been con-
signed, and that low that the veriest wretch
would not stoop to touch him. .-

ARRIVAL OF GENERAL LANE. Gen. Lane dele
gate elect Congress from Oregon, and late Cover
of that territory arrived here yesterday from his
new home on the Pacific, preparatory to taking his
seat in the National legislature. We welcome the
faithful servant of the republic, the Marion of the
Mexican war, back among his old friends and admir-
ers and doubt not that here and every where else on
the road to his former home in IndiaDa-wheFe, We
learn, he purposes soiourning until Congress sits
his presence will be hailed with delight by the Peo-
pie. In his long career in political life he has been
eminently distinguished fog the purity of his pncI
Piles and the unwavering consistency with which he
adheres to them and his military history is equally
famed for the briancy ofachevements and the reso-
free say that with the exception Of Buena Vista
alone-where he was actor-the great disparity Of
force he fought against in several instances, had no
parallel during the war.
After the capture of the city of Mexico it was his
ndefaiiagbe pursuit of Rea JaTauta and Santa Anna
that demolished, speedily, the remnant OF the
Mexican army yet in the field, and routed the bands
of guerrlas that covered the roads. We have known
him to march with cavalry, over mountains impraeh-
cable any feebler resolve than his, at the Fate OF
sixty miles in a day, in pursuit of the enemy; and
vet when the aded soldier had the bare ground, with
out tent or blanket for his couch, not muTner was

The Hon. Luke Lea, who recently negotiated two
treaties with Indians of Minnesota, has returned to
Washington. We learn from the Republic that Mr..
Lea speaks in the highest terms of the country. The
climate considering the latitude, is thought by those
who have breathed its atmosphere to be the fnest
and heaithiest in the world; there is disease of
chis and fevers in point of beauty it is represented
pictures the far-renowned garden of Eden, with its
exuberant richness. The air at all times is pure.
Fish and wild fowl found in the rivers and lakes
of that well-watered section. 1t is remarkable fact
that tho winter there is regarded less rigorous than
in the same latitude on the Atlantic. The SHOWS are
" dry" accompanied by very little wind and rain,
and are scarcely ever deep. Gentlemen living in
Minnesota say that they have suffered less during the
cold weather in that Territory than they did when
they resided in the South. The spring breaks sud-
denly, and vegetation puts forth with wonderful rap
dity.

Coon NEWS FOR PEACH GROWERS. u

GOOD NEWS FOR PEACH GROWERS. Under this
head, in recent number of the New York Ex-
PRESS we find the following article 1t cannot fail
to be of interest not only to peach growers, but to
peach eaters every where:
We have seen peach trees in the District of
Columbia this summer having much larger and
more delicious peaches than more northern fruit,
and trees in the highest state of perfection, in
sequence of being painted near the root by cheap
chemical paint, prepared by J. G. Lewis, Esq, of
Washington city This preparation works the al
most instant destruction Of the grub-worm the en-
envy of both tree and fruit, and so great an enemy
that it is a common thing for them to destroy the
fruit entirely IN from three to FIVE years. Having
seen the perfection of the remedy and the vigor Of
the tree and fruit in consequence of its application
we can recommend it to our friends IN New York

LATEST FROM CUBA.

The ship Alexandra arrived at New Orleans on
the I1th, with the latest news from Havana.
Gen. Concha, it is stated, has pardoned three OF
the prisoners of the Lopez expedition-their names
are Kelly, Haynes, and Van Vechter. He also paid
their expenses 10 New Orleans. Why these three
were pardoned is not stated. The Captain-General
said he would have pardoned the whole of the prs-
oners, bet for the riots at New Orleans.
Capt. P,at of the U. S. sloop-ofwar Albany,
pleaded in behalf of the remainder of the prisoners,
but was told that his intercession in van-that
the government determined to transport them TO
Spain.
Mr.. Van Vechter, the person above named. ar
rived at New York on Friday last. He intends CIV.
ing full account of the expedition. We hope it
may be true one.
The U. s. steamer Saranac was in the port of Ha
vana when the Alexandra sailed. Commodore Par
ker had requested interview with the Captain
General for himself and staff but up the 9Th had
not taken place. Americans in Havana were trea ted
politely, although considerable excitement still
listed.

LARGE YIELD Of WHEAT. Mr.. Isaiah Goodin, of
this County, sowed last Fall on the farm of John b.

lied from it three bushels and half. This wheat we

was carefully cultivated. The grain is large and
plump, and the wheat-called the IS Orange Demo-
crat us evidently of the best kind.
Mr.. GoodIn has thus far beaten the field.

apprehensive for their safety-the Spanards being
much excited.

a man have since died, as it is supposed, and limbo
alone remains. They supposed to have been i'm

from him, have lived alone in the woods up to the
capture of limbo, in November last. He was lately
sold at auction, in Victoria, for 1907 but, liking
the arrangement took his old haunts in the woods.
He was, however, retaken, and, we believe, is now
kept under such surveillance prevent his escape.

The PAMPERo. The Florida arrived at Newly ork
from Savannah, reports that the steamer Pampero is
still lettering about Savannah and adjacent ports ex-
pressy for the purpose of being captured by the gov
eminent authorities. This, it is said, is at the in
stance or through the influence of Mr. Segur, law
yer of New Orleans, who wishes the question
of arrest in order ascertain what legal or consu
tional rights are affected by it.
1t is said that the coal dealer at New-Oreans who
agreed to supply the Pampero with 16O tons of coal
delivered only 80; and that in consequence of this
deficient supply, the Pampero on her late voyage to
Cuba, instead Of proceeding Puerto Principe, the
point Of her original destination, was compelled to
stop at Bahia Honda, where there were but few if
any, disaected Creoles and where followed the dis
astrous and deplorable sequel which is now known
to ALL ChGrIesf0n Courier.
