National Road.

We understand that the legislature :.
prior to adjournment, passed an act re-
sciDaing the contract of the State of o.
with Messrs Foster IL co for the lease
of the National road for the term of ten
years. The conditions of this leas
were that the lessees should keep the
road in as good condition as when trans
ferred to them, and pay to the State an
annual rent Of $6,0OO-in consideration
of which they were to receive the tolls
collected upon the road. Some five or
six years of this lease have expired. and
about $4,000 have been paid into the
State Treasury by the party leasing the
road. In many places adjacent to large
towns, the road is badly worn, and needs
coating of some six or eight inches of
metal over its whole bed. The parties
having the road in charge, represented
to the State that the receipts were in.
sufficient to keep up this thoroughfs re
in good condition and pay the rentum
stipulated, and asked to be relieved
from the payment of any rent, or that
the contract might be rescinded. The
Legislature, after some investigation,
annuIled the lease, and the road is con-
sequentIy, again in charge of the Board
of Public Works, who will. most proba-
bly,, at an early day, appoint resident
Engineer to take charge of it.
We think the Legislature acted wise
Iy in this matter. The National Road
is yet an important thoroughfare. over
which considerable travel continues
to pass. Very many enterprlsing, thrift
ty towns have grown up along its line
the whole country traversed by it has
undergone great improvement, and in
this respect may be said to be in advance
of almost any other portion of the State.
1t is the principle. if not the only means
of rich agricultural region to get to
market, and it is therefore the duty as
well as the interest of the State to keep
the road in good repair.
The SSo,GUO it has Payed into the
State Treasury in the last five years, as
a rent, and which is lying idle there. is
applicable to this purpose and we shall
hope to see It expended in making the
repairs so much needed to keep this i'm
portant work from being hopelessly worn
out and ruined.
The road is of great Importance to
the trade Of ihe principal cities and
towns along It's line. Hardly any one
could have failed to see its great advan
ages during the past winter and present
spring. For months it has furnished
the only means OF supplying our market
with the necessaries of living; our mills
with grain; our merchants with custom
| and tradesmen with business-it has
been almost the only road, during mos,
of the winter. on which anything Of a
load can be hauled, or was at all passable
. for teams. This road has been of great
) consequences in opening and developing
the resources of the wealthy and produc'
4. tive country through which itpasses-
i, is still ofgreat use and importance AnC
\ well deserves the fostering care of The
State. - -fasesvilie fimes.

have espoused manfully. There are few
abler editors in the State than are they, and
