Nor,b.Caro,ina Railroad.

At a meeting of the Directors of this Road, held
at the Company's Shops in Alamance, on Friday
last Mr. Mendenhall rendered his resignation as
Treasurer in pursuance of the notice he gave at a
previous meeting, and Andrew Mickle, Esq, of
Chapel Hill, was elected in his place. This is an
excellent appointment. The Directors could have
found no one better suited for the place than Mr.
Nicke
We learn that the Committee examined the re-
ceipts and expenditures Of the Road for the last
quarter, and reported all correct; and further
more, that there were sufficient funds on hand to
Justify dividend, which the Board declared Of three
per cent on the one million Of dollars of the States
mekrred stock for the last six months This, We
trust, will silence the charges in circulation as to
extravaganza and mismanagement in the affairs Of
the Road
We are gratifed to learn that the receipts both
from freight and travel show an increase for the
present month over the same month of last year.

Mr.. Fishers Reply to HI. Worth.


The last Salisbury Banner contains reply by
Mr. Fisher to Mr.. Worth, occupying nearly six COL
umns of that paper. This, we presume, will con-
clude the controversy for the present Mr.. Fisher
has trumphantly answered all the charges preferred
by Mr.. Worth in his late labored communication in
the Register and he has done it. too, in style and
with force which Mr.. Worth will not soon forget
Among other things, in proof that Mr.. Worth was
not entirely above the influences of party or preju-
dice in his investigation he calls attention to the
fact that the Chairman "found not one single act to
approve in all my [Mr: Fisher'sl administration of
the work-not one and that you LMr. WORTH
found no single act Of any one but myself Mr..
Fsher] to censure'
By the way, while on this subject and before dis
missing from our columns owe it in justice to
Mr. Worth to state that he was correct in saying
that the contest arose in the Senate over the propo
stlon to print Mr.. Fishers reply. The first propo-
s'1on was to print and it was then determined to
read before printing. The contest was commenced
anew over the reading, and it was then that Messrs.
turner and Leach acted in such a way as to arrest
and prevent the reading. The truth is, some Of
Ar. "orths friends, as the record shows, were op.
posed both to the motion to print and to the reading;
and ms friends at last prevented the reading Of
the document.

The recent troubles seem to have
grown out Of two things. First. the
renewed attempt to harrass 10y indict-

political ollenses and oflenses growing
out of political matters, and secondly
10y the attempt OF several Of the old
Pro- Slavery offenders, who were driv-

come back. 1t has been led, too, by
rival political jealousies in that local

stance Of the matter. Sam. Walker
reports the state of the case to be very

Sammcdary has about or quite made
up his mind to send down a lot OF
troops. He seems to labor under the
delusion that the blue and white bunt-

whatever parties he may choose to
consider as offenders, and thus wind
up the whole cause of complaint
Much l fear that this is a great mis-
take.

! y correspondent, writing from Phil
alelphia to the Louisville Democrat,
relates the following:
While an agel and poorly clai fe-

preached him. AMI extended her palm
in silence. Instantly his hand found
its way to his capacious pocket, and
when he drew it out it was fille,l with
gold anl silver, which he forced her
to accept, saying:
There, good mother, take this; you
may as well have it as the landsharks.
The last cruise | had ont of New York

claimed the now excited sailor
"Why. that's my name! And you
you are my mothcrl''

and caressed her ailectionately, while
the big tears of JOY ran down his
bronzcd check The poor woman was
entirely overcome by the recovery o.
her long lost child, and wept and
groancd alternately. a carriage
