FACTS.
The Plank Road.

In the State of New York nearly S5,000,-
600 have been invested in Plank Roads. The
tolls are about two cents per mile, some as low
as one cent per mile. All pay large dividends,
say FROM 10 to 25 ner reni-. hnsidns laying MP
a surplus, to rebuild the Roads at the end Of 10
wears. With grades of foot in 80, four hor-
ses draw $4,000 pounds 81 miles per day, and
are found in as fine condition at the end of
months as at the beginning. The Wagons,
gears &C., are not perceptibly impaired at the
end of months, and the waggoners say the tolls
do not cost them more than they formerly paid
the hostlers, when using the old fashioned mad
roads.
The people of Fayetteville, ard the country
towards Salem and Greensboro, under the d
rection of that enterprising and most excellent
gentleman F. l.. Winslow, Esq, arc construct
ing Road, or system Of Roads, extending to
Salem, Greensboro, and ultimately to the Eir.
ginia line, some 90 miles complete about this
time The ascertained cost per mile, for Roads,
Bridges, Toll houses, and every thing complete,
is about 81 ,45o per mile. Mr.. Winsow says,
in letter to gentleman of Camden, which
has been shown us, 81 wish | could have an
opportunity to give your people talk upon
Plank Roads; they arc Just the thing for our
section of country, they will pay well, and arc
the most popular work with the people, and es-
pecially the farmers, | have ever known"
Mr.. Winslow, says further that, through a
pine land country, where timber is abundant,
a Plank Road, without bridges over considera.
bic streams, (somc of them costing sl,20O,)
can be built, in the best manner, for from ST..
$50 to 81, $50 per mile, Toll houses and all
complete. That the annual repairs per mile,
will not exceed $40 per anuum, and, that, with
our material, climate, &c, they will not need
re.buildIlr under 10 to II years. Their charge
is two and a half cents per mile for four
horse wagon.
"These Roads," Mr.. Winslow repeats, arc
exactly what the country wants, they are suit
ed to the condition and character Of our coun-
try and people. They are the farmers Rail
Road"
The people of Fayetteville are constructing
several other Plank Roads, Soutkward and
Southwestward towards Cheraw, Wadesboro'
&C.. and they contemplate prong of their
great road to the mouth of the Uwhara river
and to Concord!
Cheraw is making Plank Road to Wades.
boro, and Charlotte proposes, it is said, to make
one to Join at Wadesboro', or some intermcdi-
ate point-perhaps Monroe!
Camden, thus, will be hemmed in by Rail
and Plank Roads, south, west, north, east
front, fanks and rear. She must die Of indni
ion.

The Spanish steamer Habancro, while crui-

captured a party OF fifty patriots, who were in
four boats and unarmed, and were supposed to
be steering for New Orleans.
They were brought to Havana by the Hab

board Spanish trigate lying in port, and were
executed at Is mnuets past l. in the morning
They were shot Oh the public road to Havana,
at the least calculation in the presence 10000
spectators. After they were shot they were
dragged by the feet by negroes aud then left to
the mnh. who commenced stripping them Of

the Streets yelling like demons just escaped

Many "f the passengers "i tie Cherokee,
