and then roughened little by the
pebbles of life in its course. What
a change a decade of months has
brought forth, since you withdrew
your benign countenance from the
surging throng of the States Capital.
Here the usual turbulent commo-

solid purposes of life-the shortest

FREE SCHOOL MOYEMENT.

Without controversy the future of
our town is of a fattering character
Everything legitimately pointing in
shat direction should receive the
hearty and unqualified support of our
citizens. Among other things the
time and manner of organizing a
Free Public School in our midst is a
matter of paramount Importance.
No pains should be spared by our
Board of Directors to put our people
in q condition to participate in the
Educational Peabody Fund at the
very inception and threshold of orr
public school history. To this end
no necessary effort should be unput-
forth. A well-directed, well-govern-
cd and well-discip,ined free public
school in our midst, will add to the
material growth and thrift Of our
town. Such a school rs an auxiliary
to our present High Schools is an
absolute necessity. For the purpose
of having such a school started, by
first of September next, there is
petition now being circulated among
the freeholders of the District, adj
dressed to the Directors, urging them
to take all necessary steps to effect
uato said object. No freeholder
should fail to sign it. A little per
severance exercised just now will
place our people on high vantage
ground, aud put us fairly in the road
to a higher state of mental and moral
culture.

NORTH CAROLINA RAILROAD.


We learn from a gentleman re-
Gently in Asheville, n. c., that the
Legislature of North Carolina has
passed a consolidation raih road bill
that will probably be accepted by
the North Carolina Railroad Com
panv. and that the clouds which
have been so long lowering over the
railroad interests of the western
part of that State, are frightening
M and sunshine will soon appear.
OBr Informant did not sec the bill
rs passed, but was informed by
good men, that one feature Of it
was the setting aside of $1,000, 1000
especially for the completion OF the
road from AsheviIIe to Paint Rock.
There we're still Objectionable fea-
lures in the bill, but it was the
general impression in Asheville, at
the time our informant left that
place, that the bill would be accept.
ed by the North Carolina Company
and that work would be speedily
commenced on the road leading
west from Asheville.
Since writing the above, we have
received the Asheyille EGpostor o
she 9Th, which closes an editorial oil
the passage of the consolidation bill
by the Legislature as follows:
We are gratifed to sec such
/. strong sentiment in favor of tn
scheme, and feel fiattered now, thn
