COMPLETION OF THE WESTERN ROAD TO NEWTON
The last Salisbury Banner contains glowing ac
count of the celebration on Saturday last, of the
completion of the Western North-C Carolina Railroad
to Newton. large company of ladies and gentle
men attended the celebration from Rowan, Iredell
and other Counties, accompanied by the Rowan
Rifles, Rowan Artillery, the Tredell Blues and the
Iredell Cadets They welcomed at Newton by
L. McCorklc, ESQ.,, in an appropriate manner. The
Banner speaks in high terms of the superiority Of
the Road. "All were pleased" says that paper,
with the excursion. We were specially So, be-
cause every foot of the ground was new to us. The
good feeling which springs from union meetings such
as this lasts long time"
1t is expected that the Road will be completed to
within ten miles Of Morganton by june next, max
iug seventy miles west of Salisbury. The mountain
or tunnel division is now under contract The work
is therefore, making steady steps for Ashevile-

feel sure will meet ready and hearty rcponse in
your Excelency's bosom. ~ ea
Let us as State, still adhere to those principles
of benevolence which have distinguished us in the
past: let us still manfesta generous confidence in
oil classes of our citizens, and guard with equal
care the rights and true interests of each, well
knowing that neither honor nor honesty nor patri-
otism is an incident Of station rank or profession,
but of man. Let us remember that though onr
is fallen one it is not forsaken by gracious
Creator, wholly abandoned to its evil instincts; and
that it is therefore safer to depend the affections
and principles of true men of every grade than on
the interest of any Glass; interests can be ca.
silly changed and are never certain. Il! 3d.
Let it be our aim to denounce and punish the
evil, and encourage and reward the deserving, know
ing no distinction among our citizens but that of
the good and the bad 80

The Common School system, though common
interest is of special Importance to those in moder-
ate circumstances. and to mechanics and other hon.
orable laborers who may be continually called from
place to place; and no State institution is, there
fore, so necessary to such system of schools
which offers to them the means of educating their
children wherever their interests may call them.
Such an institution We have in our Common School
system; and by guarding it with jealous care, and
using all proper to promote its efficiency, the
great and good State of thCarolina says to all
the vast variety of true of every rank and class
necessary to constitute prosperous and powerful
Commonwealth, THAT you welcome here and
your wants appreciated: behold the schools erected
for your children by my provident care in every
part of my wide domain where you may choose to
dwell in peace, under the authority of my equal
laws!"
Permit me to conclude by expressing my gratifi-
cation that the State has in its highest executive
officer, firm advocate Of those essential principles
of national strength. .s.
