Rail Road rFeetIng.

The Railroad Meeting at the Court
House, on Friday the 4th inst, was well
attended, though not as largely as we
expected to see. The Hon. VIM. Trim
bic, of Hillsborough, addressed the meet
ing and made an earnest appeal in be-
half of the road, giving full history oI
the late projected consolidation scheme,
and other matters connected with it. He
concluded his address, by urging upon
the friends of the road, the most active
measures, for raising the requisite amount
dor carrying the work forward, and there
by securing an INDEPENDENT THROUGH
LINE.
Other speakers addressed the meeting
urging immediate action, after which a
committee was appointed to procure sub.
scriptions. The building of the road is
now in the hands of the people along the
line; should they come up manfully and
subscribe a sufficient amount of stock,
before the 3Oth of this month, the road
will be built, otherwise, it will be aban.
doned, or merged in the Marietta road,
thereby destroying it, as through line
which would be regretted by all true
friends Of the road.

The M,Arthur Democrat once More,

The M'Arthur Democrat once More.
This ''One Horse concern, after so
long time, (somthing less than week, J
has reached Jackson once more. Old
Ex- -Sorrel.tOp undertakes to help "Stool-
ley" out Of the predicament he has got
into, by getting the M'Arthur Postmaster
to certify that the I'M Arthur Democrat,
,CaS mailed at his Office, and sent by the
Southern mail, from there every Saturday,
(next after publication day. since the
month of August last Now our read
ers will perceive how cute these worthless
are, to not say that the jackson pack had
been sent. This, though, is not, and was
not the main issue. Our charge against
those concerned, was, that that paper,
the week previous to the election, con-
tanning false charges against some of the
Wings of Jackson, was withheld from
every subscriber IN this place, save, pro-
badly, certain correspondent, which
fact has never been conHadicted, and to
which every regular subscriber here will
testify to, in connection with the follow
ing certificate of our Postmaster:
JACKSON G. H., November 9th, 1853.
l
hereby certify, that the "M'Arthur DEMO
cRAT" of the date of the 30th of September last,
DID NOT arrive at this office, until saturday
the 18th of October, and it then came through
the "M'ARTHUR MAIL"
P. P. PRICE. Pm.
Now, as far as this controversy is con
Cened, we have no more to say, unless
attacked again by those blackguards.
AS for the remainder of his article,
made up of senseless remarks, We con-
slider the source from whence they came,
and leave the shame to rest upon the head
of the concoctor.
