No great surprise would bc felt If Dir.

towards the Grant party, this was impossi-

whether he would take charge of the Tri-

WE call attention to the advertisement of
the Raleigh Baptist Female Seminary, to
be found in another column.
The Raleigh Sentinel, in speaking of this
school says: The building, as will be seen,
will be large and conveniently arranged.
The appliances for instruction arc unusu-
ally fine. The school is provided with a
select library Of 1000 volumes, large
collection of minerals to illustrate the
science of mineralogy and geology, and a
very fine philosophical and chemical ap-
paratus for the s,,v :essful teaching Of nat
ural philosophy and chemistry.
The Associate Principal, Rev. 4. +.
! Redd, is one of the finest scholars in the
State. He graduated at Virginia Military
Institute, taught FIVE years with Mr.. Hor-
ner, of Oxford, then spent one year at the
| University Of Virginia, studying mathe-
matics and natural sciences, the Depart
ulent Of which he will have charge III the
Baptist School. BE afterwards taught one
year at Virginia Military Institute, and
then went to Greenville The illogical Sem
mary for three years.
The Principal has conducted the school
through the most trying years of its history,
and has now collected around him very
fine faculty. and we may safely predict fol
it q long and useful career.

CHRISTMAS DAT.-WedHesday last,

in by sleet which fell until about 10
O'Clock, when it was succeeded by rain,

The Raleigh Sentinel.
2HI.YIINGTON, n. {.

Several changes have recently occurred
i'll this deservedly popular Conservative
paper. In the last issue, our Old friend and
seboo.mate. one of the most elegant writer's
and accurate scholars, aud witlal, gentle
man possessed of the finest literary taste in
North Carolina, L. Il. kINGsBURY, Esq,
announced that his Editorial connection
with the paper was at ali end
Mr.. kINGsBUEY, i'll retiring from his
position as Associate Editor, makes an
earnest appeal TO the Conservatives OF
North Carolina, in behalf of the >e"fnee
aud its remaining Editor, Mr.. TURNER.
We concur with Mr.. K1NGs BURY i'll think
ing that Mr.. TURNER and the Sentinel de-
serve the support and patronage OF the
people of North Carolina for tue bold and
manful fight he has made in their behalf
We honestly regret to part with Mr..
KISGsBIrR as brother Of the quill.
We are glad, however, to learn that he has
found other emrIevment that promises
more remuneration than journalism can
bring" him. Our best wishes go with him.
Oar sprightly friend and co-laborer,
JOHN G. SYME, has also severed his con-
nection with the Sentinel, and is now en-
ployed upon the staff of the Ne,rs. This,
too, is a loss to the Sentinel. Friend SYs1E
is true and tried, and staunch. He is a
good newspaper man by inheritance, his
father having been one of the best
gentlemen connected with either the
Virginia or North Carolina Press, in
the better days of our county,
The Hon. JOSIAH TURNER, Jr., however,
remains connected with the Sentinel as its
Editor, while five journeymcn printers are
trying the experiment Of running the
paper at their own expense, " if they can
make enough to buy their bread.' We
agree with Mr.. kINGsBURY in saying, " if
fidelity, zeal, devotion, ability, integrity
and honor merit the confidence and support
of the true people of a great State, then
JOSIAH TURNER, Jr., deserves these things
at your hands"
The relations existing between the
Sentinel and JOURNAL have not at all times
been such as we desired. We sincerely
trust, however, that in the future there will
b. no difference of policy, 3 in the past
there has been no difference in principle.
No paper in North Carolina is more will
ling to accord to the Sentinel a due need
of praise, for its labors than is the
JOURNAL.

ton Railroad.

We publish, with pleasure, two articles
from the Hillsboro' Recorder in regard to
our city, in connection with internal i'm
provements. The kindly expressions and
the forcible truths they contain, should
have some effect upon those whose duty it
should be to take care Of the interests Of
the whole State.
We thank the Raleigh Era for the inter-
est it manifests in the welfare of our city.
We commend it for its good Judgement in
speaking a word for the interest of Will
mington, as the prosperity and growth Of
our city will be for the benefit of the whole
State.
We appreciate the kindly feelings of the
Raleigh Neers towards Wilmington, but it
ought not, through desire to promote the
building of railroads in the State, to el-
torse, even by silence. the tapping of sys-
telp of railroads, thirty miles above the
principal seaport of North Carolina, for the
benefit of towns and ports in other States.
We venture to assert that Columbia, Allan
IL or Montgomery papers would not have
remained silent if bill to charter rail-
road had been introduced into their respect
i've Legislatures, to cut off Charleston, Sa-
Nanilaii or Mobile. for the benefit of cities
i'll other States. We did feel hurt that
leading Conservative papers at the capitol
remained silent when the welfare of VIII
miustcn and North Carolina was being
sacrificed by Henry Clews and others, for
the hcIcfit Of Norfolk aud cities farther
North. We can assure our friends of the
,Nc.cs that if this road is built, Wilmington
has run its cour1e.
We do think hard Of papers aud Of legis-
lators whom they might have buiit up Will
minston by an addition OF less than fifty
miles to the length nf the proposed road, that
they did not even propose It. Our citizens
Justly feel tia. the people of North Caro-
lima, speaking through their representatives
anl their press, haye no regard or care for
Wilmington's welfare. So fsr as they are
concerned, = .snew Wilmington may be bull!
up thirty miles away in the piney woods
Even branches to Jacksonville and Kirs
ton were accepted by the projectors ano
friends of the proposed road, but a brancl
to Wilmington, where at least, largt
amount of business might have been Sc
cured, was peremptorily rejected. Nc
amendment to the proposed charter look
ing to the protection of our interests coul'
secure a respectable support. And ye
there was no protest or dissent, not even
kind word in our behalf, except from th'
Raleigh Era, which we have published.
This may pander to prejudices agains
our city, but it will not build up great bus
iness interests, without which North Caro-
lima cannot hope to free herself from
commercial vassalage 20 other States wh'cl
has il the past, and seems likely in tn
future, to retard her progress and pros
perity.
