ELIZABETH CRY, May II, 1860.
Nix. EDITOR In looking your paper a few
days since, my eyes fell upon short paragraph in
regard to holding at an carly day Military Con-
vention by the military men of our State. | am
glad to see such move, and hope that such a Con-
vention may meet. Thinking of the same move, |
caused to be published not long since cornmunica-
ton the subject in the Elizabeth City State. with
request that the papers throughout the State would
copy the same with any comments that might sug-
gest themselves. Whether the Standard copied or
not am not aware; several of the papers in other
parts of the State did do So and all favored the pro-
ject. l think the time spoken of (May or June) is
entirely too early, and would suggest to you to agi
tate the movement and put the time of meeting on
the day of opening our State Fair in October next.
By that time all the volunteer soldiery throughout
the State could hold meetings and appoint delegates
also select delegates, and no doubt would have
large Convention. A great many would make it
convenient to attend to be present at the Fair
On account of the election campaign now going on
large attendance would be impossible in May or
June; hence another reason for taking October for
the time of meeting. ..-.. ...-......-.. %.
Such meeting is highly necessary for the pur-
pose of having free exchange Of opinion in regard
to framing new Militia Bill out and out to be sub
mitted to the next Legislature. For the purpose Of
giving the subject the Importance that think it
ought to have, I would suggest to His Excellency,
the Governor he is our COMMANDMENTS Chief that
he request of the volunteer sodiery of the State
gether with the Militia proper, to send delegates to
Raleigh on the occasion spoken of for the purpose
of having q Military Convention. The occasion
would be the means of adding another attraction to
the "City Of Oaks" for the assembling Of 200 or
800 soldiers clad in their respective uniforms would
be pleasant sight indeed. For in that Convention
Democrats and their opponents could sit without
quarreling over the Cincinnati Delaware, Tennessee
Alabama, or any other Platform. Squatter sove-
regnty and Territorial protection to the South would
be declared out of order; for in that Convention
would be found band of brother soldiers, met for
the purpose of devising the best protecting
our good old State if the time should come when she
should be assailed Then let US have the Conven-
ton, say I. ~ e3tv y ,t,s ~ts@7r: NJ.
P. s. Papers throughout the State will please
publish the above, and oblige large number Of
Military Men. - s9es 9raM

The Pendleton and Flfth-street Market.
space Street Rnilrond.

As, under previous decisions of the Superior
Court, there would seem to be no probability
of successful resistance on the part of the
property holders to the laying of railroad
track on this route, on Broadway, their resist
ance to double track can only result in i'm
pairing their own and the public accommo-
dation, without abating any of the objection
able features of a street railroad. II will
hardly be denied that railway is a great
convenience to any street, however much its
residents may be provided with their private
conveyances; and Of all the facilities for
public travel railways are the least objection
able, the cars being much less noisy than
omnibuses, more under the control of the
drivers, and less dangerous to other vehicles
or to persons on foot, while the accommoda-
tion is much superior.
If the residents on Broadway are to have a
road it would seem desirable that they should
have all the benefits of it, as well as its dis
advantages, real or imaginary. A single
track road is but a partial accommodation to
the residents, while it is actually a greater
annoyance than double track to other We
hicles on the street. A little reflection will
show this. All other vehicles are excluded
from single track, both by the necessity OF
avoiding the cars, and by the impossibility
that in a street thronged with vehicles going
both ways, any can take and keep the center
of the street. thus practically the crown Of
the street, the most desirable part, is monop-
oliZed by the cars. But, with adouble track,
vehicles can follow the cars on the same
track without the necessity of turning out,
and, to drays and heavy wagons which track
the same as the cars, the railway tracks will
be an accommodation, instead of an obstruc-
tion, as single track undoubtedly is.
The space between the double tracks and
the curbs on Broadway is stated as twenty
seven feet four inches, enough for three We
hicles, and very liberal space compared with
that on some of the single roads. The sys-
tenn ofningle track roads which has been i'm
posed on this city Is serious dstriment to
shis grsa. public accommodation, Residents

Want ofn Rirrer City.

The Gazette notices as a public want, small
and medium dwelling houses that can be
rented at from two to FIVE hundred dollars
per dnnum." This is true enough, but it does
not state the whole case. There is a very
pressing want of family tenements of all
sizes and prices, from such as rent at FIVE hun
dred dollars down to the very lowest. They
who labor, in the strictest sense for their
daily bread, are in many instances, sadly
crowded, oppressed, and discommoded The
city'is too small for the inhabitants; popula-
lation is discouraged by the want, or-which
is consequent upon the searcity-the high
rates thatare charged forinferior quarters, and
i'll health is the consequence of the discon-
forts of confined or ill-constructed lodgings,
which for the want Of better, people are con-
strained to occupy. The population of the
city is doubtless smaller by several thousands
this moment than il would have been had
things been otherwise.

SECTIONAL Oxen in Texas.

A minister, travelling along Texas road,
met stranger driving his wagon, which was
pulled by four oxen. AS the minister ap-
preached, he heard the driver say, "Get up,
Presbyterian "Gee, Campbellite" "Haw,
Baptist" "What are you doing, Methodist"
The minister struck with the singularity of
such names being given to oxen, remarked:
Stranger, you have strange names for your
oxen, and wish to know why they had such
names given TO them"
The driver replied:
81 call that lead OK in front Presbyterian,
because he is true blue, and never fails; he
believes in pulling through every difficult
place, persevering to the end and then he
knows more than all the rest. The one by
his side call 'Campbellite;' he does very well
when you let him go his own way until he
sees water, and then all the world could not
keep him out of it, and there he stands, as if
his journey was ended. This off OK behind is
a real Baptist, for he is all the time after
water, and will not eat with the others, but
is constantly looking, first on one side and
then on the other, and at every thing that
comes near him. The other, which call
Methodist makes great noise and great
to do, and you would think that he was pull
ing all creation, but he don't pull pound"

Financial Warning-Attempt to Revive n
Swindling and Bogus Bank.

Hedges's New York Journal Of Commerce
and Bank Note Reporter contains this notice
of this bank, somewhat famous in days gone
by:
There is no question but extraordinary
efforts are being made to circulate the notes
of the Farmers and Merchants Bank of
Greensborough, Maryland" by the owners,
Messrs. Breslin, Thompson, Stanlee & Com
pany, and no stone will remain unturned to
forward their subject. AS far as this bank is
concerned, from its inception to the present
time, there has never been one dollar of its
capital paid in, and it has been in the hands
of at least half dozen different parties
within the last few years. The present own
ers have made the necessary arrangements
for the establishing of branches and agents
agents in the remotest parts of the west and
southwest. The public must be on their
guard and refuse to receive the issues of this
bank, as there is no security for their ulti-
mate redemption. The parties who have
control of this bank are notorious, and no
confidence should be placed in them. Refuse
the bills in toto.

MODE OF OBTAINING SUcoEss.-Every man
must patiently abide his time. He must wait;
not in listless idleness, not in useless pastime,
not in querulous detection, but in constant,
steady, cheerful endeavor always willing,
fulfilling and accomplishing his task, ''that
when the occasion comes he may be equal to
the occasion" The talent of success is moth
ing more than doing what you can do well,
without thought of fame. If it comes at
all, it will come because it is deserved-not
Greet and troublesome ambition which cares
so much about fame, about what the world
says of us, to be always looking in the face
of others for approval, to be always anxious
about the effect of what we do or say, to be
always shouting to hear the echoes of our
own voices-LonQfeLLoW.
