Under these favoring auspices very gratifying
progress has been made in extending the railroad
track from both directions. Nearly 1000 miles
of the Main Line and cOnverging branches be.
tween the Missouri River and the base of tho
Rocky Mountains have been built within three
years. The CENTRAL PACIFIC RAILROAD has
also steadmJ and successfully carried the Main
Stem Line from the steamboat navigation of the
Pacific to the summit Of the Sierra Nevada, and
into the Great Salt Lake Basin east Of the Cali.
fornia line. Having overcome by far the most
difficult and expensive portion of the whole
line, the probabilities OF the through connection
with the Eastern lines being effected in 1870
amount almost TO certainty.

this official screen.
Governor HOLDEN needs either the man
illness or honesty to meet the crisis square
| ly in the face. While exercising the func
tons of his Office as Governor of the State,
he lacks the courage or the desire to for
get that he is President Of the Leagues.
The political offspring of ignorance and
lawlessness, he cannot, even in behalf OF
the public veal, go back upon the authors
of his official existence.
We had hoped that Governor HOLDEN,
in the ex:gency of the moment, would sink
the politician in the statesman-that pa
triotism would get control of craftsmanship
that his love for his State and his fellow
citizens would outweigh his party ties and
political am bition. We hoped he would
issue his Proclamation in the interest of
law and good order, and not for the punish
ment of one and the promotion of the
other of two lawless organizations. We
trusted he would forget he was a Loyal
Lacquer in the recollection that he was the
Governor of North Carolina.

of these gentlemen that they arc vainaoie

| The "Annual Address," by Il. H. WIN
BORNE, Nj. D., is in a most pleasant ana
forcihle style. After glancing at the Tor
nation of the Society his address is upon
the professional Responsibility, com,
mensurate with the Progress OF Science.
These are words of wisdom from gentle
man who has long worn the professional
harness, and who has practiced his pro-
fession with success.
The VaIedictory Address of the retiring
President, E. BURKE HAYWOOD, A. NJ, NJ
d. on The Physician, his relation to the
Community and the Law" is admirable,
and adds new reputation to the standing
of this scholarly physician. We hope it
will be read extensively by the public as
we'll as the profession. 1t will be Of SER
vice to all.
OF the typographical appearance of this
issue of the transactions we perhaps should
say but little. There is defect in lack
of uniformity of the work and paper,

I'm migration.

We direct attention to the ADVERTISE
ment of Mr.. HENRY MUTT elsewhere He
is the State Agent for the North Carolina
immigration Association, and has entered
formally upon his duties. Mr.. MUTT has
received the warm endorsement of the
Mayor and Board of Aldermen of this city,
and also of Governor HOLDEN. and under
the auspices of the Association will be en-
abled to inaugurate practical system of
immigration to this State.
Mr.. MUTT left this morning for New
York, where he will acquaint himself with
all the necessary information, and avail
himself of all the opportunities of putting
his bureau into successful operation. Upon
his return he will be prepared to make
such contracts for the supply of labor as
may be required by our people. Letters
addressed to him here will receive prompt
attention.

From the Raleigh Standard.
Retri II Inn

| The Wilmington Journal has an article
which exhibits II curious disposition to so
in two opposite directions at the same time.
| The first half it is intended to re-assure
such of the Ku-Ilux as have been frighten-
Ell at the prospect of being found ont and
punished for their crimes
The article is called forth by an article in
the Standard, in which we said
eve tell these men there is another pow
er taking cognizance of their crimes-a
power which they can no more resist than
they could stop an avalanche-a power
which is quietly but surely preparing to
ed in the chain of evidence against them,
and soon they will be bound hand and foot.
We warn them in time. A while longer
and it will be too late. and when the day
of reckoning comes, as it will, there will be
many man III Orange county who will bit
terly regret that he ever allowed scheming
men to put his neck in the halter
In commenting upon the above the
Journal says:
We tell the stranger who edits the Stan
dard that the time has now passed by in
North Carolina when citizens can be in
influenced by threats and intimidations
The day of military tribunals. of drum
head court martial, of petty tyrants cloth
ed in uniforms, is gone. His threats are
mere bosh. There is no other power to
take cognizance OF crime but the regular
elected officers of the law. We now
live under civil rule. There can possibly
be no secret trial nor secret punishment.
The Grand Jury is the only power in the
land to indict-then the petty jury tries,
and to known, defined offence, a known
defined punishment is assigned. The
Governor of the State, this mystical and
irresistible power which haunts the brain
Of the Standard editor cannot, dare not.
go outside of this.
The Journal thinks, and thinks truly,
that it would be next to impossible to get
jury which would dare to convict Ku-
Klux, no matter how plainly proven guilty
he might be. It is therefore glad that
there can be no other trial than by these
juries.
The Journal, however, thinks wrong
when it calls the warning of the Standard
threat. They were not threats, but
simple statement of facts We gave them
that men who are now placing the halter
around their necks might pause in their
career of crime and be saved.
We do not wish to see any more men
hung or shot than we can help, and there
fore. knowing what we dc, We warn the
guilty men that they may repent in time,
for we know that other wise swift and
terrible retribution will fall upon them.
In giving this warning we had no refer
ence to the Governor, as the Journal erro-
neously supposes. That Governor Hol-
den is determined to use every effort to
crush out murder in this State is a fact
already we'll known.
Further than this We DO not intend to

In his Thanksgiving proclamation Gen.
GRANT makes the announcement that
" civil and religious liberty are secured to
every inhabitant OF the land, whose soil is
trod by none but freemen." The Chicago
Times says it is just possible GRANT did
not mean to state that civil and religious
liberty are possessed and enjoyed by every
inhabitant of the land for, manifestly,
such statement would have been an I'M
truth. Civil liberty is not possessed and
enjoyed by the inhabitants of Virginia,
Mississippi or Texas, among whom the
civil law is subordinated to the law of the
bayonet. 1t is possible to suppose that
civil liberty is ''secure d" 10 them for use
and enjoyment at some future time; but
the security IS of rather an uncertain kind
as witnesses the scheme now concocting in
Radical brains to prevent the restoration
of civil liberty to the State OF Virginia.
Does GRANT imagine that he can override
that nefarious scheme by the phraseology
of thanksgiving proclamation ? Or did
he sign that thankful document without
knowing or stopping to consider what the
writer of it meant :?

The New York Jo,unui Of Commerce, in
commenting upon the mania for oaths
which has seized upon the Government,
says:
1.-THE passion Of some people for administer
ing oaths is wonderful. They seem to think il
they can make man swear hard enough and
times enough to do something he is sure to do it;
| and it matters but little TO them who takes the
multiplicity OF these potential. magical oaths.-
The person. In their eyes, is OF bug secondary
consequence; the Oaths everything. These
remarks suggest themselves on reading that
Governor Walker, Of Virginia, under the recon-
structed order OF things, has to take five oaths:-
oath OF fidelity to the State constitution ano.
ther to the United States constitution another
| against dueling, another that he wa. not con-
cerned in the rebellion, another that no will pro-
| perly perform the duties OF his office. Whew !
the Governor might we'll say after swearing in
| this tve-fold way. Now Governor Walker is Ger.
| titled to by those who know him as q very good
and honest man, and he may be expected to keep
his oaths; but, if anything would tempt him to
break them, 1t would be the chespness and COM
monness of what should be are and very SOL
emn act Some OF our Radical friends have a
| taste for Osths-we mean for administering them
| to others-which amounts almost to q mania:
bat We are not aware that under their oath full
administration of affairs, swlndliDg and neglect
OF duty in Cttice have become less frequent than
IN the olden times, when oaths were scarcer ar
tlc!es. Few bad men were ever prevented from
wrong doing by the simple means of an OATH
Heavy bonds are tor them q much better securi.
ty. They may intend to respect the oath when
they take it, but in comes self-interest or the
demand Of party, and knocks it clean out OF their
memory. 10 good previous character, and not
to the binding effect Of oaths, should the people
look as pledge for the fidelity Of public off.
GERS"
The Richmond Enquirer, in discussing
this oath mania, submits in behalf of the
people of Virginia vindication which ap-
plies with equal force to North Carolina
and the entire South. We desire to add
our own testimony to the virtue of our
people in withstanding the seductive infu-
ences of the brides and resisting the pres
sure OF want, as presented in these oaths.
The whole series of oaths, from the Test
Oath down 10 the most insignificant re-
quired OF the petty officer before entering
upon his duties, were imposed upon our
people to accomplish political object. In
the older and better time, official duties
were we'll performed with little of the
oaths now required. Character was held |
in as much or more esteem than oaths. |
Bad men who seek Office for selfish purpo. |
ses will not be restrained by the oaths re-
4uired of them, but it proves a cheap sub
terfuge for their rascality.

say, not having the right to do SO. That
we have said anything at all has been be-
cause we have wished to prevent men who
have not yet committed crimes from doing
so, that they may not be lost. Yet. once
more we tell the Ku-Klux, and ali who
aid and abet them in their criminal deeds
that terrible punishment awaits them,
and that resistless power is preparing to
crnsh them.
