THRs FAYETTEVILLE AND FLOR.
ENCEs RAILROAD.

We take the following article from the vii
mington Star Of yesterday:
We had the pleasure OF visit few days
since from our old friend, Colonel William u.
L. Mckay, who may not Inappropriatey be
termed the engineer (and very ''civiP' one.
at that,) OF the Fayetteville and Florence Rail-
road.
Colonel Mckay speaks hopefully of the pros
peet, and he has good reason for doing 30, as
the ,oInpletion and equipment OF the road is
guarante ID by Northern capitalists. provided
$4,000 can be raised by the siockholders This
amount the gallant old Town of Fayetteville
will no doubt contribute to this important
work. On tn, 16 b instant her citizens will
vote on the question Of ''Subscriphou" or IN o
Subscription" and we feel assured it will be
decided in the affirmative by an Overwhelming E
majority.
The property holders OF Fayetteville can
afford to be liberal in this matter. The CON-
plesion or the extension OF o railroad in almost
any direction will be advantageous to Fayette-
VILE, IL that point be one OF its ternsini, and
must result in an enhanced value Of all its real
estate.
The grelt object OF the friends Of the Fay
ettevlle and Florence Road just now is to run
it as far as Shoe Heel. on the Wilmington,
Charlotte and Rutherford Road. and thus place
Wilmington and Fayetteville in close business
connection. And. viewed from this standpoint,
it appears to as that Wilmington might consult
her interest by aiding in the work.

IN EARTHQUAKE COMING.
A California Savant Predicts q Heavy
Shaking-up Of Things In September
or October.

The San Francisco Chronicle publishes the
following prediction, made by local philoso-
pher, ". Frank Stewart:
During the past eighteen months the earth
and other planets completed the most remark
able conjunction which has ever occurred; and
on the night Of the 14th Of last November we
again witnessed the grand thirty-four year
star-swarm. Every intelligent person Is aware
that for period OF nearly two years our globe
has been subjected to violent perturbatlons,
such as have not before occurred for many
centuries. These perturbations have been
generally over the surface ofthee planet. Storms;
typhoous, volcanoes, earthquakes, intense cold
and scorching winds have alternately spent
their fury upon the denizens Of every hemi-
sphere. Bv careful observations, astronomers
have found that in a period'of about eleven
years The sun turns towards US o remarkably
spotted disc, and 1t has also been observed that
any sudden changes Of light and shade upon the
sun during this spotted period instantly affect
terrestrial magDates. 1t is well known that in
the autumn OF 1859 one Of these sun-spot per-
turbations was Immediately followed by one
OF the most brilliant Aurora Borealis ever wit
messed in the northern hemisphere; and still
more surprising the magnetic effect Of the
aurora was 80 great that messages were freely
sent over telegraphic lines without connection
with the batteries and by means of the auroral
current alone. Many additional facts, showing
the connection Of celestial with terrestrial mag
netism, might be given, but have neither the
time nor room at present. Suffice it to say;
that as the earth's magnetic forces are now,
and for many months have been, greatly dis
turbed BY cosmical il fuences; and as we have
recently made our annual transit through the
nebulous belt; and as the suns surface is at
this moment disfgured by an unusual number
OF spots; and as the moon on the 7h ultimo
passed between us and the sun, thereby caus-
ing an additional magnetic disturbance upon
tho earth; and as we on the Pacific coast are
now experiencing an unusually protracted dry
season, the invariable precursor OF temblors in
this part OF the world, for the foregoing and
many other potent reasons, predict heavy
earthquake to take place early next autumn, as
soon as moist clouds float into the dry, vapor-
less atmosphere. 4
