Rail- Road Meetings.

We attended on Friday and Saturday last the
Ruil Road meetings held 10 Dallas and Lincolnion.
There were large crowds present and the right
spirit prevailed. Our CASTOR friends are in ear,
nest, and every effort will be made to run the
Road through that County. Our friends in Lin
coin and Catawba are also fully aroused to the
importance Of carrying the Road through the an
cient town of Lncolnton, and we feel sure from
the spirit and enthusiasm manifested on Saturday
last that the Road will be built.
Our contemporary Of the Hokeville Express is
rather too fast in assigning Us to either route
There is nothing ip the article upon which he COM
ments, to induce any one rot too touchy, TO con-
clude that the Democrat fdvors CASTOR more than
Lincoln. We discaimed iD that very article any
intention OF expressing an opinion as to which
route the Road should run. We deem it unne-
cessary TO reply more fully to sl'o "i'o'e !" '"'
E1pTeSs, as NE Convention in Lincolnton gave
as a much better opportunity to state our position
than we could possibly have through the columns
OF any journal.

We invite the attention of our readers to the
advertisement to be found In our paper OF the
Clarendon Iron Works, located in Wilmington,
NC. The Company is composed of North Car
olina gentlemen whose capital and enterprise have
already done so much to increase the prosperity
oil Wilmington. The capital Of tie Company is
$500, 900, and they are prepared to execute in the
most expeditions manner, at rates cheap as at
the North ali work required of them. We are
glad to see enterprises OF this kind springing up
in our midst, and if they will work cheap it is
not only our interest to Patronse them, but every
consideration OF duty und State pride urges US to
do it. Wherever are the workshops of the ma.
lion, there will be its power and wealth-and how.
ever much we HIay boast OF our freedom and in
dependence we are and will be bound to the North
by the most calling vassalage as long we de-
pend on her to supply our every want.

at Hannibal, Missouri, learns from farmers that
the prospects for a good wheat crop throughout
northern Missouri are more promising than they

editor OF which paper has recently made trip
across the central portion Of Illinois, that, show
ever short the crops might have been last year, it
has not deferred the farmers of the State from
seIzlng every portion Of favorable time during the
