with the necessity of locating the Road be-
fore the work can be commenced in earnest.
So long as the Western terminus Is unset
tied, there must be more or less indisposi-
ton on the part of any of the proposed
points to enter with spirit into this matter.
And as the State will be asked for indirect
aid, the Road should be located, without
surrendering any advantages to be attained
by the extension, SO as not to interfere
with Roads already completed, or ID course
of construction, in which the State Is great
ly interested. These considerations, with
the length and cost of the work, and the
country to be developed, and an eye to fu,
ture extensions, should the ability of the
Company and the demands of the country
Justify, are the great questions to be con
sidered in fixing upon the Western termi
nus. We are favorably impressed with the
views of Guilford, and as this matter should
be definitely fixed before the President ano
Directors of the Road go before the Legis
lature with the proposition they propose tt
submit, we hope that the attention of 9th
ers may be called to this question, and the
merits of other points fully discussed.

minoton. the authorities of the Wilmington
and Weldon Railroad, and carriers by wa
tar. shippers, &C., ought to make common
cause with each other and uniting their
efforts to furnish facilities therefor, cheap
and expeditions, to reach the markets. OF the
world, make Joint, liberal and continued
|exertions to inform the public mind IN the
|up-conntry, and to turn the current of trade.
This is one remedy for the existing state
of things Another is to open as soon as
possible, new routes to the interior. The
road to Rutherfordton will be of immense
service to your city and in the meantime,
you can reach the N. G. road by another
avenue. and one which can be opened
sooner than that to Rutherfordton.
From Charlotte to Wilmington ola the
Western and Coalfeld road, if terminating
at Greensboro, is about 270 miles, 100 Of
aoAich acould be by acate,', and this route
would give you decided advantage over
every other coast city.
The link, from Egypt to Greensboro, is
but SO miles at most and there is way
| by which it all might be put under con-
tract within four months.
IF the State can be induced to raise its
mortgage on the road from Fayetteville to
Egypt, and to take its debt i'll stock, a new
mortgage could be executed, and to private
capitalists, and funds at once raised to tin,
ish the road to it's natural termination
The State will not grant this favor if the
route is to terminate above Greensboro; ii
can be made to yield it by a united effort
in behalf of Greensboro. By this means,
and liberal subscription in Greensboro
and Wilmington, this whole route might be
graded in one year, and entirely finished
in less than two and with it, and the one
to Rutherfordton, it would be in the power
of your people to make yours the Creates
city between New Orleans and Baltimore.

vantages, will you let them slip from you
NO,o is the time to work trade is making
its channels, dealers are falling into habits
that are to last for years. Your fate is, I'm
der God, in your own hands; let Il wise
and energetic policy prevail, and your for

P S. Allow me to suggest that much
can be effected by combination. Adopt a
prudent and liberal policy that will unite 6

FROM GEORGIA.
The Legislature Rejects the Constitutional
Amendments,
MILLEDGEVILLE, GA,

MILLEDGEvLLE, GA, Nov. g.
The Legislature has rejected the Consti-
tutional amendment. The resolution Of
rejection reads as follows:
" Res0lUed, That the Legislature of Georgia de-
clnes to ratify the amendment adding fourteenth
| article to the Constitution ofthe United States"
motion was made in the Senate to post
pone the consideration of the resolution to
some future day, but it was amended to the
mere adopting of the above resolution, and
this passed; yeas 26, nays none, the full
Senate voting In the House the vote stood
yeas 131, nays2. The nays were Ellington
OF Gllmer county, and Humphreys, of Fan
nler county. The committee, on reporting
this resolution, accompanied the report
with a lengthy preamble, the substance of
which is as follows:
First. That States of the United States
alone are authorized to consider constitu-
tional amendments.
Second That such amendments must be
proposed by thirds of Congress, or by
the Legislatures of two-thirds of the States.
Third. That Georgia was one Of the orr
ginal States, and must always have contin-
ued such unless she reserved the right to
secede or give the federal government the
right to eject her.
The report adduces the legislation. Of
Congress, the proclamation of the Pres-
dent, and the issue made during the war
by the government of the United States to
prove it was held 10y that government
that no State could secede, and was only
interrupted in the practical relations of
States thereto, and that the suppression Of
the rebellion was to restore these relations
fully, and the constitution then became the
supreme law of the land. The argument
then goes on to declare that Georgia and
other States are integral parts of Congress
and no Constitutional Congress can be con
Vened while such integral portions are for
chilly excluded. It says that the adoption
OF the emancipation amendment is no pre-
cedent for the adoption of this, the South
ern States hsving at that time no delega-
ton to be received into Congress, as now,
when denied admittance. The argument
concludes by saying that as the amendment
In question was not proposed by two-thlrda
of constitutional Congress, the commit
tee recommended the adoption of the reso-
ution above given.

Extension of the Western Railroad.

In our last issue we published very in
teresting and important communication
from leading citizen of this State upon
of the Fayetteville and Western Railroad
from Egypt, in Chatham county, to which
place it is now completed, to intersect the
North Carolina Railroad at some point,
with the views of the writer in favor of
Greensboro as the best point. To-day we
publish the proceedings of the Convention
recently held in Guilford county in the in
terest of this road, which disclose the
plans by which the friends of the work de-
sire and hope to raise the necessary funds
for its completion; and by request, give
also the letter of the Fayetteville Neocs' cor
respondent, 'sGuilford," in advocating
Greensboro as the Western terminus of
the proposed extension.
We are as fully convinced of the impor-
tance of the extension of this Road as the
intelligent correspondent, whose letter we
publish, and have fully endorsed the plan
for doing this, embraced in the action of
the recent Convention. We are satisfied
that it viii be greatly to the future advan-
tage Of the State to make the exchange
therein proposed, and shall urge it by all
means in our power.
We must confess, however, we have never
given the subject of the Western terminus
the consideration its Importance demands.
Our object has been to see the Road push
ed forward to intersect the North Carolina
Railroad at the most advantageous and
ayailable point. We are fully impressed

State of North Carolina to foster and encourag &c
all the works of internal improvements already
commenced or merely projected in the State that
have for their object the development of her min

interest; whereby citizens may be enabled to

ruins of the past few years !; bringing into the
the world her vast stores of iron and Goa
now buried IN the earth and yielding nothing to the
State while comparatively small outlay would
make them worth more than all the boosted gold

the means Of transportation for his produce to

that produce into capital; and to the manufacture

WeSsrs. Editors Il have seen with con.
Germ that the business of your CITY does not
reach as far up the country as formerly
Why is this =? Undoubtedly the Danville
Railroad has been one great cause but il
seems to me that there arc other reasons,
and that these, and the apparent in jury
caused by the Danville connection can all
be overcome. AS your merchants are
aware, a good deal of cotton is coming into
Charlotte and Raleigh-but, possibly, they
may not know that all of this goes, not to
Richmond, but to Norfolk. And not only
SO, but groceries are purchased in Norfolk
for Salisbury and Charlotte, and other
places in the interior of North Carolina, and
this while the Richmond merchants say
that but for freights they could put sugar,
&C., in Charlotte at less cost than it could
be brought from New York. In view of the
routes, from Charlotte to Norfolk, Rich
mond and Wilmington, this seems to be a
queer state of things, to say the least.
From Charlotte ria Raleigh and CASTOR
Railroad to Norfolk, is about 355 miles,
and freight goes the whole distance by land,
and over three roads; from Charlotte to
Richmond, Uia Danville, is some $50 miles,
over three roads-and from Charlotte to
Wilmington ola Goldsboro', is about 900
miles over t,ro roads. Thus it will be seen
that the present avenues of trade present
no insuperable impeachment to the enter
prise of Wilmington dealers, and if the
country drained by the North Carolina and
Western extension roads, deals with Rich
mond and Norfolk to the exclusion of Viii
mington, the fault must be in the manage
ment, somewhere.
Your merchants have been famous for
their energy and far-sightedness who is
to blame
This is question not for me to answer
but will suggest that the difficulty proba-
bly, lies in want of general combination
on the part of dealers, and of carriers by
land and water.
It is well known, up the country, that
Norfolk is getting larger share of the trade
OF this region than Richmond, and yet the
distance to Norfolk is greater than to Rich,
mond or Wilmington.
It seems to me that the dealers in VIII

Slight Prospect of Civil War in Wash
ington.

From the Washington Union, Nov. 10.
We perceive from the Chronicle that For
ney, true to his instincts, is attempting to
infame the public mind by calling upon
the Loyal Leaguers, as they are termed, to
organize themselves and come to Washing
ton for the purpose of projecting and rindi-
eating the power of Congress over the con-
stitutional rights of the President, which
is nothing more nor less than revolution,
which must be met with decision and firm
ness. If Forney & Co. are determined to
persist in the course they have marked out,
| it is the bounden duty of the friends of the
President to accept the issue thus present
ed, and prepare thems elves for the strug
gle.
| If the time has arrived when the legisla-
| tive department of the Government is to
absorb the coordinate branches, the time
has also arrived when it should be resisted
at the point of the bayonet. We are i'll
! favor of the constitutional rights of every
| department of the Government, which can
only be maintained by each acting within
the prescribed limits of the Constitution.
When Congress shall transcend these limits
for the purpose of absorbing the powers of
the President, it is revolutionary, and he is
justified in calling to his aid the whole mil
itary power of the country, which would
be responded to from North to South, East
to West and when this formidable array
of fighting material shall present themselves
vindication of the Constitution, this
Grand army of &C Loyal Leagaers" as they
style themselves, whose loyalty consists in
plundering the public treasury, skulking
from the army when their services were
needed, and now exciting the country
to revolution, will never present themselves
in battle array. The war will be for the
Constitution-not for plumber for the in
dependence of the three coordinate branch
es of the Government, and against either
one absorbing the functions of the other.
If the programme presented by Forney
& Co. is the true and legitimate ground up
on which the Radical Congress intends to
plant itself, we say to the friends of the
President let us accept the issue, and ut
once organize for the struggle. Let our
friends in every hamlet and village organ
ize themselves at once, and be ready forthc
conflict. Let their watchwords be the Con-
stitution the independence of the Presi-
dent in the execution of his constitutional
rights-and an united country upon terms
of equality and justice, and present them
selves also in Washington, where these
Loyal Leaguers may have fair opportuni-
ty of looking upon the material with whom
they will have to lock- horns if they attempt
to absorb the constitutional powers of this
Government The impeachment of the
President is a sine qua non for war, and
the friends of the President accept the
issue
