Plank Road Superiority.

We see sensible letter, from C. w. Styles,
Esq, published III the Hamburg Republican.
Mr.. S. writes from Fayetteville, N. C., where
he has had an opportunity of looking into the
Plank Road business extensively, as .fue roads
nos radiate from that place We call atten.
ton to the following observations.
IL have recently had an opportunity of in.
vcstigating the theory Of Plank Roads, their
utility and effect upon farming interests, and
the inducement they offer to capitalists for
profitable investment; and the result of my Oh
scrvatons is the conviction that their system
is far preferable to Railroads where short dis.
tances are to be overcome, and where particu.
lar communities are TO be accommodated.
Railroads should never be built, except where
it is desirable to shorten great distances, and
bring remote sections in close communication.
In such cases they should be constructed by
the shortest and most direct lines, leaving the
accommodation of communities and villages to
plank Road enterprises; and wherever track
or Rail Road Is located adjacent communities
would place themselves upon the liue by plank
ing their roads This system would cost less
and benefit larger portion of our citizens than
the zigzag location of Railroads, which has
characterized some Of our most prominent en-.
terpri>es; and, while it would furnish all the
facilities necessary to the planter for the trans,
portation of his produce to market, and the re-
turn of his necessarics, it would afford him, at
all times, good road at his door, for planta.
ton and neighborhood purposes. Railroads
afford none Of those private and domestic ad.
eantages."
Mr. Styles goes on to say that the Fayette
vile Roads have cost an average of sl,4O0
per mile-that they are all paying 10 per cent
and that the cheapness of their construction
may be attributed to the fact that they aDere To-
