WILMINGTON, N. c., March 80, 1857.
To the Editors Of the
Salisbury Waterman and HeraM:
DEAR S1Rs There have been several complaints
made through the newspapers of Salisbury, of the
DELAY of goods shipped via this Port for places on
the N. c. X. Road.
In no case has delay occurred here, as the Trans
portation Agent informs me, this Spring. when the
charges came with the goods and when bills of lad.
ing received by the company before the re-
ccipt of the goods in Wilmington The goods of the
Messrs. jones' were here and advertised by the con.
sgnec of the vessel before the bills of ladng came
to hand.
There are now in warehouse-goods, some six car
loads for persons at Salisbury, Lexington and Con-
cord, without the charges being entered on the
bills of ading and are consequently detained await
ing these charges
Some of the principal consgnees of these goods,
are Messrs King. Hedge & Co., Lexington j. "
& T. Svmonds HobSon & Morehead, and W. j.
Mills, Salisbury Keeter, Bum & Co., Concord
Lattimer Brown, IIisborough, and others,
Will you be good enough to call attention to this,
and also to the advertisement upon the subject of
Forwarding, published in nearly all the newspapers
along the line.
may here remark, that nearly all bills of lading
for goods from New York. the point from which
these goods were shipped, come without the proper
charges-generaly filled with the remark-"2-3
rates"
Consignees car, in great measure, remedy this
by directing their Correspondents to have the charges
made out in adoance and the bills lading filled when
the goods are shipped
There are 10 through carloads of goods to 20 fors
ward in the morning, to Salisbury and vicinity, that
hope may be in good time.
The 20 "Joint Cars" will ply regularly between
Wilmington and Salisbury, etc.
All that Company can do, will be done to &C.

Hon Thomas 4. CliNgman.

We Learn from the Asheville News, that the Hon.
Thomas L. Clingnan, at the earnest solicitation of
many citizens of the mountain District, has consent
ed again to be candidate for Congress. "Whether
there will he opposition" says the News Eve know
no.-nor does it matter, particularly. He has here
tofore contended successfully against the strongest
men of the opposition, and his opinions and votes
have been searchinsly investigated and reviewed,
time and again. The doctrines which he has advo-
Gated for years, form part of the settled policy
of the governmental policy which places the South
upon safer and better ground than she has uped
FOR thirty years. Mr.. Clingmal, has been thorough

His sentiments are the sentiments of an overwhelm-

but of the entire South. The opposition would per-
form graceful act, and do themselves bonor, by
assisting to return Mr.. Cngman, between whom
and themselves there exist little difference
of opinion tic great question of the day. without
opposition"
We agree with the News, that "AIr Clingman has
been thoroughly tried, and needs no endorsement to
the people" Indeed any laborcd commentator
of him to the people of his District by way of urg

DistriSutiOn..-The Salisbury Waterman.

1t is not true, stated by the Salisbury Watch
man, that Mr. Craige and the other Democratic
Represent tivcS from this State voted at the last
session of Congress distribute the proceeds of the
public lands among the States. They voted to de-
post the surplus revenue with the States the act
berg precisely similar to that passed in 1886, and
approved by Cen jackson. This surplus revenue
had been drawn from the people by tarf,axes,
North Carolina contributing in this way two or three
millions of dollars per annum; and ourRcpresenta-
tivcs, after mature consideration thought it rather
better to adopt this than to leave the surplus
in the treasury, to be squahdered on extravagant
schemes and to be used to c'rrupt Congress and
portions of the federal government. 1t was bitter
alternative and doubtless Representatives
regarded it. As States Rights men, they are anx-
ious TO avoid the appearance of dependence on
the federal government; but in truth, there is
wide and marked difference between deposit and
distribution. The act for which they voted provid-
cd as did that of 1885, that the money to be depos
tied should be refunded by the States. when called
for North. Carolina received some sixteen hundred
thousand dollars under the act of 1886; and this
sum- the greater portion of it, constitutes her
Common School fund. She wonld be as much bound
to refund this money, if it should be called for, as
she is to pay the interest and principal Of her regis
tered and coupon bonds. If the federal government
can deposit it's surplus money in Banks. as it did in
1884, it deposit them with the States, provided
the latter will accept them.
To distribute means to ''divide'-to "bestow in
parts portion" "dispease"-to 'gire in char
ity"-"Moses distributed land to the tribes of Is
rael"-"Christ distributed the loaves to his dsci-
pes"- We5ster's Dictionary. The difference, then,
between deposit and distribution is plain and clear
Even the Editor of the Watchnan no doubt sees and
understands it. -

The .sixth District.


We learn that the candidates for Congress in this
District the nominations having been made the
present week-are Alfred M. Scales, Jr. Esq. OF
Rockingham, Democrat, and Col. r. G. Puryear,
Know Nothing and nti-NebEaska, the late member.
Mr.. Scales opposed Col Puryear two years ago, and
came within few votes of defeating him. He is
stronger than he then, and Puryear IS
weaker. With proper and united efforts, we have
no hesitation in expressing the opinion that Mr.
Scales will be elected He will do his full share;
but let erery Democrat in the District 60 to work at
once, and cease not until victory shall perch upon
our standard.
Col. Puryear has msrepresented the District too
long already. His vote against the Kansas Ncbras
ka bill would have come better from Northern
abolitionist than from a Southern Representative
The Supreme Court of the United States has decid.
ed against his vote and has declared that the odous
Missouri restriction, to which he clings with such
tenacity, was null and void from the first With
whom does he go?-with the five Judges who have
asserted the Constitutional rights Of the South in
the common territories, with the two black Re.
publican Judges, Mclean and Curtis, who have de-
cidcd against the South?
Again. Col Puryear left his seat in the House of
Representatives at time when the black RePub-
licans declared that they would accomplish their
ncfarous purposes destroy the government ITSELF
the session expired, with the appropriation bills
not passed, and the President convened Congress
again, as step indispensable to save the govern
men, Col. Puryear returned home, knowing the
proclamation of the President had been issued, re-
quring his attendance as a member of the House;
and he did not 60 back to Washington until forced
to do SO by the clamors of his friends and constitu
ents. Of course he dreao his pay up to the end Of
the session. He did not forget that. Is it true that
he said, that OCCASION that the Democrats had
go. the country into difficulty and might get it out?
Let him answer that before the people. And did he
not declare that, in his opinion, Fremont would be
safe for the South as Buchanan? Let him err
that also. Such is not fit to represent a
Southern constituency. The contest will be ami
mated. and the vote may be close but repeat, if
