in the Charlotte Obsorrcr OF Nov. 2Sth,
and which was evidently prejudiced
against Wilmington by something
/ unseen, and we are unable to account
for its publication except that the Ed
itor of that journal has written with
out knowing what he was doing, or
caring what effect it might have on our
trade. A be has seen lit in his edI-
torial capacity to publish his article,
we hope he will give Wilmington the
| benefit of our reply:
RANDOM THOUGHTS, Tn
! der this head the Daily Charlotte Ob-
! seruer, of the 28th November, takes
occasion to make several very uncalled
for and very unnecessary flngs at
Wilmington, its trade and its mer-
! chants, which We propose shall not
pass unnoticed: albeit it quotes rs It's
| authority fer some OF its statements
the name Of Major \. Pope, General
Freight and Ticket Agent of the At
| lantic Coast lime. Ne rejoice that
| Charlotte has at hand such a choice OF
competing freight lines. We have
labored for many years IL every way
at Our command to secure it - them.
The day is at hand when she shall
have the full benefit OF all the labors
forth in that direction. When Char
lotte enters into these benefits We do
expect that Wilmington viii not be ig
ncrtd; not because We are more wor-
thy OF consideration than others, but
because we can oifcr advantages for
trade 20 Charlotte herself, not to her le-
gitimate customers. We do notwish to
take a single customer from her, on
the contrary, we expect to be IN her
market the day after the c. G. by. opens,
70 buy what she has to sell and to Of
fer her orr goods or our money i'll ex-
change We have 10 objection TO i'd
vertising Charlotte as u fac cotton
market, il is undoubtedly SO, but
should her merchants after they have
bought their cotton, desire to seek the
foreign markets, we can assure them
that through our place they can lind
the easiest and cAcApe st route 70 Lly-
erDo0I and Manchester. The editor Of
tie OJSerCcr must have taken too
much ice-watcr on lis stomach while
in Wilmington last Spring, or he would
have discovered that cur city Is the
nearest to the Atlantic OF any On the
coast, except Charleston. We are
nearer than Norfolk or Savannah, two |
Of the ports he name, and besides, the |
rates OF Insurance. TO Northern ports are |!
not IS stated by the r!'scg-rc5', but the |
rates are REGULAR u enc per cent. sub !
