Sister, hear the voice of evening
Signing through the distant trees;
Day and night are swcetly meeting,
Whispering lovc-talcs in the breeze.
Flowers have closed their gentle petals,
Every Blade of grass is still;
flushed the drowsy hum Of beetles,
Silence reigns over vale and I'LL.
: Now come forth beneath the starlight,
Let the soul go out to Heaven.
Free from care and toll Of daylight,
Night for quiet thought was given.
Nights the time for deepest study,
Nights the time for calmest peace,
Day may make thee strong and ruddy,
Night will teach thee purest grace.

WILMINGTON, CHARLOTTE & RUTHERFORD Road
We are glad to hear from the Charlotte Democrat
of the progress being made in this work. That
paper says:
"Wn., CHAR & RUTH. RAnRoAD.-We learn
that the President of the Company, II. W. Guion,
Esq, has purchased nine thousand tons of iron for
this Road, to be delivered at Wilmington This
will lay about one hundred and fifteen miles Of
track. Mr.: Guion is pushing the work ahead with
great deal of energy, and it will be seen by adver-
tisement that 200 negro men arc wanted to work on
the Western Division of the Road. There is moth
ing like having untiring, energetic man at the
head of any undertaking, and when this Road is
completed, as feel confident it will be, the
most of the credit therefor must be awarded to Mr.
Guion, who, from the first, has never yielded to a
doubt or fear to the ultimate success of the pro-
iect"
