From the Fayetteville Observer. The Proposed Cape Fear and Yadkin Canal. In another column we have copied an article on this subject from the Greensbo- rough Patriot, though we do not, like its author, rely on State assistance for any such work. Demagogues hate made so much capital out of State investments in Internal Improvements, that the general ty of Legislators have naturally become afraid of the shadow of a leaning to a State investment of that kind. When an- dertaken, as we surely hope it will be, be- lore long, it must be by individual enter- prize. We do not understand, from those un- der whose auspices the meeting in this place on Thursday next was called, that it is proposed to make any movement at this time beyond the effort to, obtain the few hundred dollars necessary to make the requisite Survey of the route. It would be inexpedient, perhaps fatal to both] schemes, to attempt at the same time a subscription to the Canal and to the Raif: Road. The latter seems to have obtained’ the start: let nothing be attempted which | may impede its progress,—confident, as4 we may well be, that the fact of so much foreign capital coming to our aid will} eenerate a new spirit of enterprize in our midst, add inaterially to our means, (espe- cially by the appreciation of property.) to lend a hand to the Canal. We have heretofore mentioned the an- ticipation, in Virginia, of an immense in; | crease of the trade and wealth of’ Rich- | mond by tapping the Yadkin region of our State by means of the proposed Richmond | and Danville Road. More recently we have bad oecasion to remark a similar longing at Charleston for a monopoly of the trade of that section. A distinguished merchant of Charleston, writing in favor } of the rail road to Charlotte, in this State, says, “ The prize to be lost or won, is a rich one—not rich perhaps in its present undeveloped state, but susceptible of a ve- ry high degree of enhancement.” © I speak | from personal knowledge, (says anather writer in the Charleston Courier,) when ] | ter of its po: { itate to say; respects 6 tent to be f “With equ would: leay : not so ford, anne of that * king the ¥i Asheville, thence into the State of “ would command thi shiré of the Sou - now more wealth of.

Phedemocracy of this State are playing a most reékless game in regard to the vote given ‘* | by the Locos in Congress to censure Gen. Tay- Jor. Having unwittingly nominted a man for “Governor who participated in the effort to in- suit old * Rough and Ready,” they must needs d It will not do to denounce Chapman, and they dare not defend him forthat vote. What isto be done? Well we will tell our readers what they Aare done. They have denied the fact. With an utter dis- 9 something to save him. « But if Charleston should throw herin- in Congress ever voted to censure Gen, ‘Taylor! flnence and eapital into the Camden and and not only this, but true to the Lecofoco in- Charlotte Road, then the latter place, so junction to “ charge on the enemy,” they turn upon the Whigs and charge that “every Whig voted against” a ‘direct proposition to present the thanks of Congress to General Taylor,” (he QC, | fand through him to the brave “It was the Whigs of Congress who vo- a: wet es . “On the 29th of January, Mr. Cocke, a Whig "America in.

Taylor ana hig The resolutions were presented honestly and in good faith, as a tribute justly due to the gal- Jant army, to which no objection from any quarter could have beenanticipated. Yet we find there was objection from the democratic side of the House, even to the introduction of resolu. tions, and pending a motion by Mr. Cocke to suspend the rules, the House adjourned. The next day (Jan. 30th) the matter came up as unfinished business, when opposition for- midable and imposing—the result of a night caucus—began to exibit itself on the part of the Locos by indirect and underhanded efforts to get rid of the subject. In these efforts two Al. abama members were conspicuous, as the ful- lowing extract from the record shows : Mr. Payne inquired of the Chair whether it would be in order for him to move to refer the resolutions to the Committee on Military Af- fairs? The Speaker said the resolutions had not yet been received, Mr. G. S. Houston inquired of the Speaker whether it would be in order to move a call of the House. The Speaker. Itisin order. Does the gen- tieman make that motion ? Mr. Houston. Ido. And the qnestion having been taken, the House decided that there should be a call of the House. The roll] having been called, the yeas and nays on suspending the rules were taken and stood: Yeas 136, Nays 28. nays were ALL Locorocos!

New ques- tions, to Which it was known the Whigs were opposed, were introduced as amendments in or- derto compel them to vote against their own resolutions. Vor instance (we quote again from the record :) Mr. Faran (Loco) offered the following a- mendment, to come in at the end of the first resolution ; Add the following words: “Engaged as it was and still is in a war commenced and forced uponus by Mexico, and continned by us in de- fence of the honor and in vindication of the just rights of the United States, assailed as both had been by repeated and flagrant acts on the part of Mexico, of insults, outrages, and, final. ly, of invasion of one of the States of this Un- jon.” And Mr. PF. demanded the previous question. Mr. Jacob Thompson desired to offer an a- mendment to Mr. Farin’s amendment. The Speaker decided Mr. Thompson’s a- mendment out of order, as the previous ques- tion had been called. Mr. Jacob Thompson’s amendment was then read at the Clerk’s table, as follows : “ Provided, Vhat nothing herein contained member, from Tennessee, asked leave of. the | 2 House to introduce-the following joint resola- } | *TOHAPMAN anda (4@—al] Locos; > 2a , OF Youu ek . and nays, as given by eee Ne v4 - 2 | e same-party in: Congress: “Now to-the|| Wyte adoption an intended resolution of thanks | ¥ BH. “The yeas were all Looe Was converted into one of eemsure, of ingult.

And tocap the elima igpf infamy, the previous question was moved by Faran and sus. tained by his party, and thus the Whigs were deprived the poor privilege of being heard in defence of their own proposition, or in opposi- tion to the insulting proviso. Thus gagged hy an unprincipled and tyrannical majority, the Whigs were only permitted to record their votes Here they were borne duwn by the weight of num. in silence against the infamous proviso, hers, and the proviso was adopted: Yeas 110 Sf Nays 70—al] Whigs, except five.

There are no preparations to defend any point between Puebla and the capital. All the odds and ends of the army are collected in the city, about 20,000 in number, but poorly armed, and of miserable material. There was a small pronunciamiento at the City of Mexico, which casily put down by Gen. Bustamente.— | It was got up by factions of the peace party and of Gomez Farias’ party. ‘Their cry was “down with Santa Anna!’ but the President ad interim still maintains his power and influ- ence. Congress has refused to accept his res- ignaltion, We have about 6000 men at Puebla, under | command of Worth and Quitman. Gen. Scott will remain at Puebla until he is reinforced. Gen. Bravo is in command of the army at the Capital. Santa Anna has published quite a flaming account of the affair between him and General | Worth, at Amozoque. The truth is that he had a large force of cavalry, which was at- tacked by Col. Duncan’s battery and Maj. Bon- neville of the 6th Infantry. He didnot wait to receive more than one volley, from which, how. ever, he sustained a heavy loss, and then fled in the wildest disorder towards the Capital. The gallant Capt. Walker has commenced his work of retaliation on the guerrillas. On the morning of the &th inst., he started with his command from Perote on an expedition some distance into the interior. During the expedi- tion he succeeded in capturing nineteen guer- rillas and an Alcade—he has employed them in cleaning the streets and sinks. A letter had been received in Vera Cruz on the 15th inst., previous to the sailing of the Galveston, direct from the head quaiters of Gen. + Scott, stating that Gen. Scott had issued orders for the removal of the government from Vera Cruz to Tuxpan. ‘This charge was said to be, in part owing to the sickness in Vera Cruz, and because communications could be more easily kept up between Tuxpan and Puebla than be- tween the latter place and Vera Cruz. All the public stores in Vera Cruz would, in that case, he removed to ‘Tuxpan, and troops, only suffi- cient to garrison the place, lefi at Vera Cruz.

The Government has taken a very important and de- cided step in regard to the Mexican war, and one that promises, if not a conclusion of the war, at least to chanfe the character, and to convince the world of our sincere desire to bring the contest to an end. The Government has, after full deliberation in Cabinet Council, determined to establish a form of Government de facto in Mexico, and make with it a treaty of peace, and guaranty the security of that Government, Instructions to this effect have been sent to Gen.

One reason for the decline of the pig interest, is the low price which the slaugh- tered hog and pork has brought in our markets fora year or twopast. There is a change coming over this branch of bu- siness. as Well as many other branches connected with the farm, which will have a tendency to bring up the price of pork | in the market. The change in ‘the Brit- ish tariff, whereby American produce, and needed, onght testimulate a greater num- American beef and pork is admitted ata gpders very moderate duty, cannot fail to increase the demand for corn and for pork. In such a case, where not only the material which Its results makes the pork is in great demand, but Gorn Mixe Barsam, for Bilious and Nervous Affections, also the pork itself, the price must increase. He, therefore, who has a good breed of hogs. need not fear of meeting with a loss ; and he who has not a good breed, need not hegjtate to obtain an improved one, for remot losing his time, money .and trouble? The hog is aw animal that requires more care and attention to keep pure in breed than any other. There are two reasons for this.

We cannot imagine a more total ig. norance of the feelings that govern the people of this country, than has been shown in thé THE PRESENT ASPECT. Really we are almost tired of speculatingn ‘on the probable course which our affairs # | Mexico may or may not take. In such maf succession does rumor after rumor fr quarter succeed each other, and so contng tory are they in their nature, that we bare , Most ceased to guess at what may be the, | bable result of the present war: or when t may expect ils termination. At one /we learn that Santa Anna has res; | Presidency, and also his command of the i my; and that Herrera has been elected tp | Chief Magistracy of that ill-fated COUNT ae Again, we learn that the Mexican Congp ‘will not receive the resignation, and that tty ‘confidence of the people in Santa Anna is unshaken. Another account, and a fate too, has it that the Mexican Government made certain propositions of a peaceful cha ter to Gen. Scott, but that tbe latter did think them of the proper kind, and bas, thega fore, rejected them. That Gen. Scott is at Rio Frio, a short distance from the Mezig Capital, there is now no doubt; but whee any propositions have been made, and ef ve nature, is a matter, about which we are byy means very certain. One thing is ceraite The Mexican Guerrilla parties are daily & coming more numerous and more formidable Their attack upon the command of Gen. ( walader proves this. Indeed, they are so as to approach the very walls ‘era Crag and the town of Tampico is sai be in dailf NO expectation of an attack from a large body Mexicans, 1500 strong. If these be facts, we have no reason to doubt them, it would far to prove that the Mexicans continue rs stinate as ever; and that the contest has bj means been drawn to aclose. At present, thé communications between Vera Cruz and Gel Scott are, in some measure, cut off by forttid dable bands of guerrilias. Of course we sume that reinforcements will be sent oa the purpose of re-opening them. But thatt have been cut off at all, argues that the peq of Mexico are stil] determined, tn some surf continue the contest. Our opinion is, that 4 nough of the Mexican people, and of the ican war, is now known, to make it thei rative duty of our Government to send@ promptly the largest kind of reinforecmentsl can be raised, to the support of Gen. Scote® his army. ‘This will be the only way ia the war can ever be terminated. We mas erally annihilate everything like resistance, fure we can calculate upon making peace.’ The above is from the Wilmington Jo nal, a Locofoco paper.

Mr. Adams has but expressed opinions which many intelligent men in this country entertain that Mexico is to be thoroughly renovated and regenerated, and ultimately brought within the to or independent of this Union. If so, the war will not be regarded, hereafter, as unfor- tunate; and will be attributed less to policy than to Providence. The Rio Frio intelligence of propositions for |* peace has been very useful to stock specula. tions.

The present government in Mexico must pass away belore she can have a government capa- ble of guaranteeing a peace.

Major McRae addressed the meeting at con- siderable length, and furnished important sta- tistical information respecting the aggricultural and mineral productions of the rich Walley of the Yadkin, and the fine plains of the Cataw- ba country, and exibited the vast resources of that beautiful section of our State, and pictured the future greatness of that region, (which is truly designated as the garden spot of the world) when furnished with as cheap and easy trans. portation of her products as will be presented by unlting her interest with that of the Cape Fear, by means of the contemplated Canal. Mr. Wm. H. Hardin, in a spirited address, impressed upon the meeting the fact that this was a State work—would furnish a continuous line of 500 miles diagonally through the State, stitution, affairs of this kind are getting wonder they did not think to say then that no The Te SEAS iis eretnt more-out of fasion.

We therefore take pleasure in thus resoriniending them as speciaily excellent in preventing and curing those bilious difficulties to which almost every | individual is at certain periods of the year, more or less subject. In all dyspeptic cases in which we have seen them used, they have effected a perfect cure. The meth- od of using them was to take one or two every night when going to bed. Whoever that is dyspeptic, and follows this advice, will be sure of a cure, so we believe, as we have never known them fail. Nothing but the welfare of our fellow-beings has induced us to write this; you will therefore confer a particular favor upon us by having it | published. (Signed,) Jacob Odell, P. M., D. M.

M.- T regret much to record a most shame- ful and disgraceful affair at Annopolis, the steamboat Jewess, Capt. Sutton, char- tered by a man named Phillips, left hege in the morning with nearly or quite seve buandred persons—men, Wome, and chil- dreu, of all ages—on board. 1 he excur-. sion was advertised for St. Micheals, but the Captain deemed it prudent to put in- to Annopolis. The party had not Janded long before some disturbance took place between the disorderly portion ot the Bal- | timoreans and some of the Annapolitans, The evil, thus began, continued fomen- ting until the time of the boat leaving for Baltimore. There appearec also to lave ‘been an old grudge to adjust, as some of the Baltimoreans behaved badly last year and on other occasions when visiting An. nopolis on such excursions. As the boat was about leaving the wharf, with her dense, living, heterogeneous cargo. some one from shore threw a stone or brick on board. This was returned from the boat with other missiles, which drew forth a perfect volley of stones, brickbats, &c. from the crowd on the wharf. these missiles fell among the women and children, injuring some severely.—There being two of our military companies on board. their guns were soon charged with powder and ball, and some thirty of them were discharged at intervals among the crowd on shore. The scene had now become ternific. Five persons (Annapolitans) were woun- ded, among whom was young Edw’d Bur- (rel. There were no hopes of his recove ery last night, and he may Mow be “dead. The ball, it is said. entered the small of his back, and lodged in his body. Mr. Brady is shot through both thighs, and is dangerously, if not fatally, wounded. A gentleman named Loekerman, was also shot in the leg. Mr. MeNeir, alsoa citizen of Annopolis, received a ball in his leg; and a man named Hall, had two of his toes shot off. Some of the balls struck a considerable distance up in the city; one of them pass- ed through the window of a house occu- pied by Mr. Hyde, and within a few ineh- es of a young lady (Miss Ilyde) who was standing at the window at the time. This is one of the most daring outrages I have recorded for some time. It had its origin in the evi] passions of a tew des. “ccount of whose outrages the innocent, the unotlending, and help- less Women and children were made. te suier and come near enduring most fata] consequences. The Mayor of Annopolis, Mar. Swan, is now in our city, and there is to be an in- vestigation of the atfair this evening. Cor. Nat. [nt. MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT. During the firing of the salute on the ¢ square, in Richmond, on Monday, a young man by the name of Jobn Brown was killed. He Was standing, we hear, Opposite the * Grays” when that company fired, and it is supposed that the musket of some member Was loaded with a ball catridge without the owner’s knowl. edge.

PERSONAL APPEARANCE OF GEN, - TAYLOR. One of the returned volunteers who fought under General Taylor at Monterey, has furnished a leaf of his diary, describ- ‘ing the personal appearance and man- ners of the great horo. as follows: The hero of Buena Vista, around whose military brow so many chaplets of fame have been thrown, presents in his person- al appearance many of those striking stamps of nature, which mark the gentle- man and the officer. Of an average me- ‘dium height, being about five feet, nine inches, he inclines to heaviness of frame and general well developed muscular out- lines, with some tendency to corpulency ; of square build, he now inclines to stoop : and from the great equestrian exercise the nature of his life has led him necessarily 'o undergo, his inferior extremities are somewhat bowed. His expansive chest shows him capable of undergoing that vast fatigue through which he has passed amid the hammocks and savannahs of Florida, and the still more recent fields of Mexico. ITis face is expressive of great determination—yet still so softened by the kindlier feelings of the soul, as to render the perfect stranger prepossessed in his belalf is head is large, well develop- ed in the anterior regions, and covered With a moderate quantity of hair, now tin- ged by the coloring pencilof time, which he Wears parted on one side, and brushed down. His eyebrows are heavy, and ex- tended over the optic orbit ; are grey, full of fire, and expressive when his mental powers are called into play, yet reposing as if in pleasant quiet, when in ordinary. His nose is straight, neither partaking of the Grecian nor Roman order; his lips thin, the upper firm, and the lower slight- ly projecting. he outline of his face is oval, the skin rinkled,and deeply embrown- ed by the many tropical suns to which he has beenexposed. Lis manners are frank, social, and no one ever left bis company, Without feeling that he had been min- gled With a gentleman of the true olden times. He at times appears in deep med- itation, and is then not always accessible. Ju his military discipline he is firm, and expects all orders emanating from -his of- lice to be rigidly enforeed and observed —treating his men not as helot#or slaves, but exercising only that command which is necessary for the good of the whole. To the younger officers under him, he is peculiarly lenient—often treating their little faults more with a father’s forgiv- ness, than with the judgment of a ruler. In his general toilet he docs not imitate the beau Brummels, and bandbox dan- dies of the present fashionable epoch, but apparells his person in unison with his age, and has no great predilection for the uniform. In this, however, he is by no means peculiar, for a majority of our reg. ular military gentlemen seldom appear in their externals on duty ; and the sta- tions to which General Taylor has been _assigned, have been in the warm and sun- ny South, rendering the heavy blue cloth undress coat disagreeable to the physi- cal feelings. I have generally seen him in a pair of grey trowsers. a dark vest. /and either a brown or speckled frock coat, ‘reaching lower than would suit the starch- ed and prim bucks of modern civilization. | He wears a long black silk neek handker- | chief, the knot mot looking as if he had been torturing himself to arrange it before 8 fall length mirror ; he sometimes wears @ white hat, resembling in the shape those | Used by our flat boatmen, and a pair of t much polish-, ORS PRINCIPLES, se Journal folowing | “we? ie” 3 3, wel oS: a Fe ¢ Jeter of: Gen, tothe |: ea és aa “ * 6.8 og ee a: GEN.

Dr. Channing, cating but be duly appreciated by all those wh can read them :— “When I compare together different classes as existing this moment in the ci- vilized world, ] cannot think the differ- ence between the rich and the poor, in re- gard to mere physical suffering, so great as is sometimés imagined. That some of the indigent among us die of scanty ltood is undoubtedly true: but vastly more in: this community die from eating too much than from eating too little; vastly more from excess than starvation. So as to clothing ; many shiver from want of de- fence against cold; but there is vastly more suffering among the rich from ab- surd and criminal modes of dress which fashion has sanctioned, than among the poor from deficiency of raiment. Our daughters are often brought to the grave by their rich attire. than our beggars by their nakedness. No the poor are often overworked, but they suffer less than ma- ny among the rich who have no work to do, no interesting object to fill up life, to satisfy the intinite craving of man for ae- tion. According to our present mode of education, how many of our daughters are Victims to ennuz, a misery unknown to the poor, and more intolerable than the wea- riness of excessive toil! The idle young man, spending the day in exhibiting his person in the street, ought not to excite the envy of the overtasked poor, and this cumberer of the ground is found exclu- | sively among the rich.” Womaws Spunk.—A dissipated young } man in Louisiana gained the affections of | a young lady, and the promise of her hand if he would reform. He promised to do | so, and behaved so well that the lady mar- 4 ried him.

Oak Whig friends may feel assured that Rowan will do her duty in the ap- proaching election. Mr. Boyden is our choice, and we hold ourselves in readi- ness to honor with our warm support the man who has done so much to sustain Whig principles, and who so readily sac- rifices his own interest when his services are demanded by his political friends.— -No man can charge him with double- dealing: he is a straight-forward, up-and- down Whig—devoted to principle, and to 5 8: the welfare of the Country ; and if elect- ed, (as we certainly believe he will be.) he is of the right grit to perform his duty fearlessly and independently. OF Some of the Locofoco presses, no- ticing the reception of President Polk in the northern and eastern cities, to which he has recently made visits, are disposed to attribute the honors paid him to the personal popularity of the President. This is really amusing to us, and we doubt not Js so to many honest Democrats who sup- ported Mr. Polk for the high office which : These honors, we regard as hav- ing been paid tothe President of the Uni- ted States, not to Jumes K. Polk. The honors received by the’ Hon. Day’L.

Harney gave his orders thus: “ As soon as you hear the word charge, rush |. right down the hill as fast as you can and up the other—it is rather steep, but that’s all the better for us—yell like devils as soon as you reach the ravine, and then up the hill to their breastworks as soonas you can, and for God’s sake dont fire unless you shoot a Mexican!” An orderly now came from Gen. ‘T'wiggs—* The general says if you don’t want him to go, crazy, for Heaven’s sake fire!” The guns were soon ready and our side began. They fired for a tew minutes, when a force was observed coming down the Jalapa road, and the riflemen were ordered to the bow In getting out of the hollow they had to pass just in range Of the enemy’s guns, and the grape shot took awful effeet.— Such a scene may I| never witness‘again.

All their in- fantry was at work, and the constant roll of musketry, with now and then the loud- er and more startling report of artillery from all the enemy’s forts, which were cross-firing us, was awful. Still cheering we rushed on, cheered by our-leader the intrepid Hlarney. A great many were shot, while we could not fire a gun our- selves, and even our artillery had now to be silent, as We were in the range of it. We reached the bottom of our hill in showers of bullets, almost exhausted, but again we gave three hearty cheers and commenced to climb the enemy’s height ind sform their breastworks and battery. Thousands upon thousands of bullets whiz- zed past our ears, now and then laying one of my comrades low.‘ Here I saw many of my brave comrades fall—men who had like myself fought in all the bat- tles in Mexico, and I thought for certain that my time hadcome. But no, my dear sister, the recorded prayers of those whom I love best on earth were still around me then, as ever, and the thought lightened my heart asT rushed on. Col. Harney was at the head of us_all, cheering us.on, and in a few minutes we gained the top and were just outside the breastworks.— They fought like devils—better than Mex- | icans have fought before in this war, Cc ‘ue scehe became a scene indeed, for the | + jed at him with-my,. rol. | alry to Ere, “eu men.— : - Gn r, hand to hand, tox ime resulted in the dis- though outnumbering us some: 4 OF & to this desperate charce | your son fell at the -of his company, gal- | lently leading it onto victory.

The troops quartered at Matamoras, a- bout 1400 in number, were to have been received on the Ist instant, by Col. Da- venport the commandant. Maj. Ben. McCulloch and his men had een for some days quartered at Matamo- ras. The men were enlisted for six months, and the Major has gone up to see if they could be received. We regret to hear that the Major is in bad health. The Flag has a report communicated by letter—in which, by-the-way, it puts | no faith—that a scouting party of Gen.

He has also become further satisfied that to attempt to do so with the sinall force he has in advance would be running a hazard that, in the event of a failure, he could not justify himself for doing; and his patience having become completely exhausted at the non-arrival of reinforcements from the United States, he, upon consultation with his officers, came to the conciusion to abandon ine country hetween Puebla and Vera Cruz, except Perote for the present, and, with a concentration of all his forces, to make a rapid and decisve assault upon the capital of the enemy. He has other objects in view besides the taking of the city of Mexico, which you will in due time learn, and which will exhibit in a more strikeng man- ver than ever his great generalship. So soon as the capital is reduced, it is the design of the General-in-Chief, I Jearn, to open his line of communication again with Vera Cruz, so that its abandonment will be but temporary. It may turn out, upon a little further examination that a communication far more safe and easy of access than Vera Cruzcan be opened with Tuspan, If so, he will of course at once adopt the route.” A Murderer Arrested.—A mannamed _ Alexander, who passed here by the name of Campbell, was arrested in this place on Monday iast, as a fugitive from justice in Georgia.

[From the New York Express.] WHAT THE JUNK LOOKS LIKE. A long look at the Junk, now our great sight, makes me attempt a description for ' your readers who cannot come to see her. She is 160 feet long and 18 broad, draw- | ing 12 feet of water. Her rail is in shape | 1 months since the Marquis de Pasforet was ~summoned to-Venice, by Henry V.,on bu- a state of simmering, put in it two and a half _siness relating to the fallen dynasty he so runs of yarn preparedas the former, and col- like a crescent, the centre of it near the water's edge. If you take a chebacco boat, or pink sterned schooner as a model, you can make a junk by widening the schooner’s stern equal to her whole breadth | Then carry her bow up in the same way and widen, remembering to leave the end /open, and you have a junk. The head rail must be a balcony the width of the craft. Aft to the extreme height is a range of poop decks, ascended by flights of small steps. Her deck is covered with windlass: purchases (which have no palls, and must be held by main force) for vari- ous purposes, and by which she is much encumbered. Her rail is high, and she has a cabin and top-gallant forecastle like a modern ship. Her rudder is suspended to her stern, and hoisted up or depressed by a windlass, and cables made of rattan. I’rom the heel of ber rudder, on each side, rans a rattan cable along the ship's bottom to her deck, which is used to keep the rud- der to the junk in place of the usual mode of hanging. A hole in the rudder head admits a long tiicy, which is beld in a gale by man power only. Aft of the rud- der, and over its head, is placed the ship’s idol—near which a lamp burns without ceasing. Below she has an immense ca- bin, the sides and top of which are cover- ed with Paintings, such as are often seen upon tea catties, Chinese letters, numerals, &e. In the cabin is one large idol with nu- merous smaller ones, such as are often seen ata museum. Some fine landscapes, chairs with inlaid bottoms, lanterns, vases, and other curiosities fill the cabin, not enough to make ita show ship, but enough to make one feel that the work of another and strange people is about him. The men are stowed away in holes as goods as old fashioned seamen used to vet, but the bedding is scarce. Her galley is built » Just forward of her eabin.— An iron boiler, set in brick, was the only arrangement Wwe could see, and the Chi- namen evidently eat stews oftener than a roast dinner. The mouth of their fur- nace opens upon deck, and under each js a trough of water to prevent accidents ‘rom fire. Bunks for the men are placed round the galley, and the men do not suf. The hold of Her masts are very large, and hooped with iron, but instead of shroads are supported by braces Her sails are laicen, and sea. Her cordage is made of rattan, both all and large ; some of the latter is six phes through, and is laid up with areg- parity that shows the Chinese to be far Se ignorant, and proves that they have Bas near perfection as we have in of cordage, though their mate- b and their machinery nothing. manes of the same material were Any rope, and loo ound the ship the and she has upo y of long bambo eforwardina Bed in China, ; “h Pea k very ser- re is a gal. n her quar- © poles, use- river, Such and the gal- SANNer as ou some “sf, 7 toe | heads and queer 6h: | aig ueer shap | looking like she Owen the stage, For flare A i SA er Meee mast a white silk ialso a weathercock, from ue pecan should come in Bot; no sooner did | long. fa i d saying, he catch sight of me for a brute of a man, an : I thought it was the lady of the 1’ as loud as > thought T to§pyself ; Tl go an get my of the figure I knew I was, that I urage to look her in the face ; so on the floor, I said, ‘I have to upon you—#ut—I thought that so—that you did | a mo nd which you will be kind enough to let me | _ - eof workmanship in some branches,.bas | ; ‘no.competitors when it attempts to build | “ny @ Ship, produces an abor @{ our own fine vessels. 7 | Wonder, and attracts crowds to seeher, | Pas she is the first, and no doubt the best | ““£ : and ofily ‘specimen that we shall ever see. | * fict of them out% a > . +The difficulty of getting one {of China, and the riskothas However, I was too glad to get back ter are used toiwahy di two long pink silk pet | are made of heavy We Il twenty feet, 'tened in a mepnet ig ¥ look like a dart head, The stock. anchor, insta of being at the end shank, is placed near the fluke,” whole affair needs nothing but-a : attached, to look like a man’s “ kelleck.” The I indicates great strength, and her sides are worked down as smooth as a packet shi When standing upon her upper deck, aft | she looks large as a frigate, and so-unlik dern ship that one can scarcely she has really come from Canton.== With all her clumsy looks she ean lay to in a gale, and makes so little water that ‘her batches are not closed, much less calked.

By the oftlicial quarterly return, made by the Secretary of the Treasury, it ap. | pears that the expenses of the Army, for! only three months, ending on the 30th— June, were sixteen millions five hundred | seventy-two thousand five hundred ‘and ninety-four dollars. (16,572,594.) and the Whole expenses of the Government, for the same period, were $22,474,505, it follows that the expenses for the pre- sent three months will be greatly in- creased, The expenses of the army alone, at this rate, will be over sixty millions a year,— and this, too, without including -pensions, fortifications, and numberless other items. The expenses of the year, for all descrip- tions of expenditures, cannot fall much below a hundred millions ; and if we get off with that, we shall do pretty well.— The receipts of the Government, from cus- toms and all other sources, is almost eight millions for three months, or thirty-two millions a year,—leaving a deficiency of at least sixty-eight millions of dollars. It was estimated, if we recollect rightly that twenty-eight millions would meet all , the deficiency of the expenses of the Gov- ernment, army, navy, and every thing, are | no more than twenty-two and a half mil- | is reported, for the last three, hhons, as INDIAN AND AMERICAN COTTONS, _ive dryness of the season during. which le and the sword.

Scott had had an action with the Mexi- cans at Rio Frio and defeated them total- ly, with a loss on his part of three hun- dred men. This news the Bee says was read at the head of the troops at Mata- moros. We presume this was done on the 26th—the day before the Washington left the Brazos. If Gen. Scott entered Mexico on the 17th ult., this would give nine days for the news to have reached Matamoros—a distance of nearly 250 leagues by the way of San Luis Potosi hats of some of his party, but nothing of the men. It is feared that they have ei- ther been killed or taken prisoners by the Indians, as the latter have appeared to be , dissatisfied for some time past. on account of not receiving certain presents promised them by the German agents. Up to the date of the last advices from Austin nothing had been heard of the miss- ing surveyors. We learn from the Galveston Gazette that Mr. J. W. Brown, of San Antonio, and formerly of Kentucky, was killed by Indians about a fortnight since. within fif- teen miles of the town; and Mr. G. Kk. Lewis. who has made himself famous by running several expresses between San ‘Antonio and Monterey with but a single companion, was attacked also near the town, as he was returning from Monterey with despatches, by 8 or 10 Indians, and | received a shot, but succeeded in reach- ing the town. | It is reported in Galveston that the are) my worm had made its appearance in they Ae ae 2 cotton fields on the Brazos, but the New sufficient for the transmission of the news. - f opinion trom information receiv But we have dates to tue 26th from Tam- fae that part of the State that it is pico also, which is several hundred miles ; . ow the army worm, but another descripuiomy nearer the capital, and yet not a word of which confines its ravages to the Gen.

This is a false statement of the merely for the sake of answering | it. It tells a lie for the sake of something to talk about it. In the next place, we have been misquoted in the sen- tence, in the above extract: The word “ generally ” is omitted, and we are made to say a thing which never was believed by us, to wit: all “ the leading democrats were fivorable to the election of Mr, Bogle.” The sen- Journal's own making, “bered that the leading Democrats in the District, were generally favorable” &c. - We do not believe they were ail favorable to Mr. Bogle. Honest thinds will conceive that the misquotation was to our prejudite, slightly, de- signed or accidental it is all the same. In the next place, is it jugt, in the Journal, in reference | to our remarks, to say, it (the Watchman) “ conveys a | false insinuation that the fluence of the ‘leading demo- crats’ was exerted for Mr. Bogle.” . We only said they | were generally favorable to his election. Does the learn- ed writer pretend that a trae grammatical construction | of the language will sustain his allegation ? | We con- prise ar.4 yet not exert himself for its success ; or that it | does not follow, being favorable he must exert himself.

Now, BAdiah Woodson, (the sereen,) we do not believe feel an irresistable inclination to attribute them to some one of more Aateful disposition than we believe him to | be. Ifwe are mistaken in this, we must still attribute himself. Circumstances sometimes change the character of men. But it is said that we are “ ungrateful for the forbear- | ance of the Democrats.” Can it beso! Then it would seem that the democrats declined voting for Bogle or Vogler—not because they had strong objections to those | gentlemen, but because they wished to secure, by their | “forbearance” to do so, the gratitude of the Whigs! and the Journal, without reason, it is true, accuses us of | “meanness” for not being as grateful as it thinks we ought to be!) What fal-de-ral !— What nonsense ! On this point it is due to truth to say, that many de- mocrats, at the Salisbury box, not only declined voting for Bogle and Vogler, but a goodly number voted for Mr. Boyden. They did so, however, not for-the purpose of entitling themselves to the gratitude of the Whigs! It was purely an honest discharge of what they conceiv- ed to be their duty to themselves and to their country. If they could have believed that duty better discharged by voting for Mr. Bogle,,or Mr. Vogler, they had done | so. We accord to them the most worthy motives, for which, whether he had been beaten or elected, they | doubtless receive the thanks of Mr. Boyden, as they do the commendation of their own consciences and of all honest men. Now after noting, carefully, the above extract, the rea- der will scarcely be prepared for the following, from the same paper, to wit: “ So far as we could see and understand, some days ' before the election, there seemed to be a pretty strong inclination amongst the Republicans to vote for Mr..Bo=: gle (if voting at all) in preference to Mr. Boyden, andeif he had not made a speech here the day before: | tion, itis our impression: he would have "ty large Democratic vote.

The New York Correspondent of the National Intelligencer of July 29, says: «The razor-strop man” has been suc- eceded by the garter-man, A great, stout, two-fisted, fat, red-faced man, probably from some extreme point of Yankeedom, has determined to make his fortune by retailing ladées’ garters.

Only a shilling; the best thing you ever see.” As I still continued my reading. he pro- bably began to consider me a hopeless customer, and passed on to the others in the room, whom he plied in the same manner. An hour afterwards L was inthe American hotel, when the same stout gar- ter man came up to me with the same salutation, * Boss, buy a nice pair of gar- ters for your lady 7” And round he went from room to room, laying siege to every one he met, even giving battle to several oflicers of the Army and Navy. continu- ally throwing the same shot, * Boss, buy a pair of garters for yourlady?)

Ou Wednesday, as we were informed by respectable authority, a drayman on Main Street, near Sixth, was ac- costed by a gentleman, who asked him if he knew where a certain person lived, The dray- man said that he did. Whereupon the young gentleman offered him five dollars, if be would show him the house. He did so, and on arri- ving was requested by the gentleman to walk with him up stairs, which he did. When up stairs, she asked for Mary She came down, whom she had not seen for years. Quite atalk ensued, when Mary asked for her’ sis- ter and family. The supposed young gentle- man announced himself the sister, and, open- ing his breast proved it. ‘Thereupon ensued tears showing a world of natural affection, which was two real for doubting. ‘The couple then left the house, and taking the Pittsburg packet. leftthe City. ‘Phe disguised sister had learned the condition of the one here, and had assum. ed this disguise that she might safely gain ad- mission, and induce her tu Jeave. She took the drayman with her, that she might run no risk of personal danger.” What more touching illustration could be furnished of a sister’s love ? PATHETIC. We clip the following from the Brook- lyn Advertiser : “A Recluse.—There dwells in a seclu- ded part of this city, ina hovel of wretch- ed and obscure exterior, a young female of singular beauty ; who for three years past has lived a recluse from all associa- tion with the world, save in the common intercourse forced upon her by the pur- chase of her common articles.—She Is reputed to be immensely rich, and is known to be in possession of jewels of rare value, but whence she came, who- she is, or What her object in pursuing a carcer so strange, no one can divine.— Since she has been an occupant of the place, no visitor has been known to enter her abode, and lovely as she is in form and feature, she appears studiously to a- void the rudder sex, and seems to enter- | tain for aman an insuperable aversion. -There is a mystery connected with her which the most curious and inquisitive are unable to fathom ; and a deep and all absorbing interest in relation to her has been excited among many whom her per- sonal charms have won to admiration.” Warertnc House Puanrs.—There is a great deal of discretion to be used in wa- tering plants.

HYDROPHOBIA. This singular disease is in the minds of most persons invested with so much ob- scurity and dread, and its prevention or cure so ill understood, that we are con- vinced that we are doing the public ser- vice in publishing the only reliable infor- mation on the subject we have met with It is taken from Mr. Youatt’s work on The Dog, a book of excellent authority by a celebrated veterinary surgeon, whose practice has been among the canine fam- ily as much as among horses, and who has had much experience on the disease we are considering. ; Hydrophobia, or Rabies as Mr. Youatt calls it, appears to be a species of inflam- matory disease in the dog, affecting chiefly the mouth, throat and stomach. Its pri- mitive origin unknown, it now appears to arise from contagion, communicated by plan, | am informed that, a gun is being made the bite of a diseased animal, by his lick- , ing, or any means by which the froth or spume of his mouth may come in contact with wounds, scratches, or other places not protected by a sound skin.

Political sympathys and strong sense of grat- itude which the services of a pure-hearted and noble-minded statesman awaken in those who on Saturday. the Whigs of the nation has been unreservedly given—ethe statesman to whom, in peril or peace, of the returning party would have gladiy gone in defeat or victory, millions of hearts have on board the flag-boat, aud resought the Cape turned with unfaltering confidence—came into the midst of our community, which has ever been foremost in testimonies of attachment to his fortunes, in endeavors to build up his great- ness and to reward his deservings. Cray arrived in Philadelphia on Saturday, and his coming stirred feelings to expression that have been deeply cherished. There had been but little note of his coming, and that of such an uncertain and dubious char- acier that many disbelieved the information while they regretted the absence of opportuni. | ty to make expregston of personal respect and political sympathy." “Phe fear that he would not come seemed to inerease the general desire for his presence, and:thousands went to the de- pot at the time appointed for the arrival of the | cars to sutisfy a hope that. he might favor us with a visit.

I was travelling with my old friend Ned Brace, when we stopped at the dusk of the evening at a house onthe road side, forthe hight. Here we found three nice, tidy, aged matrons, the youngest of whom could not have been under sixty; one of them of course was the Iady of the house, whose husband, as old as he was, had gone from home upon a land-exploring ex- pedition. She received us hospitably, had our horses well attended to, and soon pre- pared for us a comfortable supper. While these things were doing, Ned and I en- gaged the other two in conversation; in the course of which Ned disported him- selt with becoming seriousness, The kind lady of thé honse occasionally joined us, and became permanently one of the party, fromthe time the first dish was placed or the table. At the usual hour, we were suminoned to supper—and as soon as we were ceated, Ned. unsolicited, and most unexpectedly tome, said grace. I knew full well that this was a prelude to some trick, I could not conjure what. His ex- planation (except so much as discovered) was, that he knew that one ot us would be asked to say grace, and he thought he might as well save the good ladies the trouble of asking. The-matter was, how- ever, more fully explained just-before the ene Gy of our retiring to bedtarrived.— To this moment the conversation went round between the good ladies and our- selves, with mutual interest toall Tt was much enlivened by Ned, who- wage: ble, as the reader has been herel adie of making himself ex ua Breeable in all company—and oe this occasion, was ee Bi haviour.

Mrs. Shad leaned torward resting her fore arm on her knees, and loadeez into the fire as if she saw groups of children playing in it. Mrs. Reed, the land-lady. who was the fattest of the three, was thinking and laughing alternately at short intervals. From my bed it required but a slight change of position to see any one of the group at pleasure. I was no sooner composed on my pillow than the old ladies drew their chairs close together, and began the following collo- quy in a low under tone, which rose as it progressed : Mrs, Barney.

H. & T. are the publishers of School and Standard Books, Manufacturers of Blank Books and most of the articles of American Stationary ; and keeping also a handsome assortment of Foreign Fancy Stationary, they are enabled to offer extraordinary inducements to pur- | chasers, in the prices, variety, and extent of their stock. Having recently become the Commission Agents of some of the most extensive Paper Makers, they can offer | to wholesale or retall dealers and to printers and binders, Letter, Cap, Ledger, Writing and Printing Papers, at ve- ry tow prices. They wilkalso keep constantly on hand a stock of Wall, Window, and Screen Papers, of the | most beautiful patterns and brilliant colors, at manufac- turers’ prices. | Blank Books of their own superior make, are always kept in quantities to supply orders, or made up to such particular patterns as may be required | Merchants’ Show Bills, or advertising Cards for New Goods.—H_ & T. have been printing these showbills for the last year or two for their customers in a very beauti- ful style, but for the approachin season, they have had some Vew and Elegant Designs engraved, which will make a more showy and _ attractive than has before been printed, and they particularly invite the attention of merchants to this article, which will be furnished at a very moderate price. Desirous of retaining their old customers, and of ad- ding as many new ones as possible to their list, H. & T. will endeavor always to have such a stock of articles in their line as is not to be found in any establishment, and their prices will be found to range as low as any other house, they hope, therefore, the advantages which they | can offer will induce all dealers in these articles to call at No. 30, North Fourth Street, udvertising sheet ; whenever they visit Philadelphia. z Ds De YS Va DRY-GOODS, HARDWARE & CUTLERY ESTABLISHMENT.

The Washington Correspondent of the Bal. timore Patriot, makes the following statement with regard to Mr. Polk’s views touching the present war, * Ot one thing Lam positively assured to-day hy a gentleman high in office and in the full confidence—as much so as any man can well be—of Mr. Polk, and that is, that the Adminis. tration has resolved upon subjugating the whole of ~Mexico—every square foot it! Her mountains and valleys, her rivers, lakes and ocean harbors, her mines, ber temples, and her altars, are all to be made conquest of !” We know not the source whence the corres- pondent alluded to obtained his information, but we do know that there have been outgivings from one, which seem to Justify every suspicion of this mature, at present entertained against the executive. HA late No. of the Union con. tained the following extract from the London News, upon which it commented with great glee, evidently delighted to see the foregone de- termination of the executive applauded in a quarter so little expected : ** Mexico, half occupied, and even that half not peopled by a race to which no European counsel or aid can communicate political wis- dom, honesty, or courage, has fallen by the natural current of human events, under Anglo.

Important as these matters are, they sink into insignificance, when compared with the startling fact, that this na- tion, founded by men who fled from tyranny in the old world, and transplanted the sacred germ of liberty to the new—renowned all over the earth for its hatred of oppression, and its steady opposition to tyrany—whose struggle with a monster power, seeking to crush it in the very cradfé, attracted the admiration and won the sympathies of all the world—has, even before istence, entered upon that career of blood which made Rome the scourge of the ancient world, and produced against France a combination of all the nations of Europe, who considered in- dependence a blessing, and preservation of na- tional existence, an object worth struggling for. Let the reader reflect seriously upon what is proposed! It is not intended merely to punish Mexico for the wrongs which she may have in- flicted ow our citizens—it is not souuht to re- taliate on her, merely for aggressions which she may have offered to our commerce—it is not designed to seize one or two of*her provin- ces only, as a guarantee of payment for all that we may have suffered at her bands. A far more solemn, and important reflection occurs for the reader. [t is proposed to blot a free and independent nation—one like ourselves, pro- tessing to acknowledge no superior under [lea- ven, and however unjustly, to found her sover- cignty, like us, on the will of the people—from the map of the world! ‘The fate of Poland, deplored by every lover of freedom in the wide world, as the most melancholy that ever befel a tree Nation, is to find its parallel in this hem. isphere ; and the perpetrators are not the des- pots of Russia, Prussia, and Austria, men who rule nations of slaves,-and who have no law but their own will, but the United States of America, the descendants of the Pilgrims, the asserters and defenders of freedom—the ene- mies of tyrants, who have gained a reputation as wide as the world itself for the justice of their councils and the magnanimity of their arms—who are wont to style themselves the brothers of the oppressed, wheresoever they nay be found on the face of the carth—in whose soil the tree of jiberty, striking deep it roots, has spread its mighty branches over the Na- tions, and like the cedar of Lebanon, invites the oppressed of every clime to take shelter beneath its shade. It is difficult to realise the fact.

Think- ing that it would yield more in indigo than would be necessary to furnish his family, he plonghed a part of it up, and put in cotton,— Thus ploughed before it had germinated, he scattered the seed over his cotton land, and many stalks of it grew with the cotton, When the worms began to devour the cotton, he found to his surprise that the stalks near the indigo were untouched by them.

Whether he will pursue the pacific policy of the Old King, or will give way to, or be overborne by the National inclination, remains to be seen. The general impres- sion is, that he will not be able to resist the current, even if he were so disposed, and that he is so, no one affects to believe. France has never forgotten her humilia- tion, during the latter days of the Empire, nor will she rest quiet under it, until it shall have been atoned for by blood. The worst possible feeling is known to exis between the French and English, (not the governments but the people,) and it will require a very small spark te produce a general conflagration. The French have never forgiven the of Waterloo: and the monstrous preten- sions of the English people—their absurd and perpetual boasting—their arrogance | in assuming to have done that of them- selves, Which they required the assistance of all Europe to do—have had any thing | but a mollitying effect upon the general irritation.

How he came to be at Washington at the time of Paredes’ return, three thousand miles from his charge, we have not been informed ; but some estimate may be made of the importance of those duties, when they can be abandoned fur so long atime, by the man to whom they are entrusted, without damage to the public service.

THE SPRING OF LIFE Is PAST. _— The spring of life is past, With its badding hopes and fears, And the autu:nn time is coming With its weight of weary years— Our joyousness is fading, Our hearts are dimmed with care, And youth's fresh dreams of gladness All perish darkly there. While bliss wes blooming near us, In the heart's first burst of spring. While many hopes could cheer us, Life seemed a glorious thing - Like the foam upon a river, When the breeze goes rippling o’er, These hopes have fled forever, To come to us no more! 'Tis sad—vet sweet—to listen To the soft winds gentle swell, And think we hear the musie Our childhood knew so well ; To gaze out.on the even, And the boundless fields of air. And feel again our boyhood’s wish, To roam like angels there ' There are many dreams of gladness That clung around the past, And from that tomb of feelmg Old thoughts come thronging fast— The forms we loved so dearly, In the happy days now gone, The beautiful and lovely, So fair to look upon: Those bright and gentle maidens Who seemed 30 formed for bliss, » Too glorions gnd too heavenly b @ world as this, 5. e solt dark eyes see een. of aad z pe? -anuther minit.’ - Why, good“ gracious, marin, [+ you might sleep an age ig | buildin’ with me, and I’d-never dream o techin you.’ * You mightn’t dreamof doin ‘but you aint a bit too good to, —coming waking people up! lof the night, when they are a | (there were fifty in the car.) talki ia hat—why don’t you wit your hat, there, and goaway § ‘there, now, and that is ¢ ‘sa disturt any reasonable person—always a ao |ing people this way—why don't you luke 7 eT | a rated ‘commanded, the distressed old i gent, reached under the seat at the dark- looking object. which he fancied was his hat. and the old lady’s small pet dog, which he caught hold of by the neck, seized him ‘in turn by the finger, witha wu u-u-wough ! ‘Ow-uh ? * cuss the consarned thing ! ‘exclaimed he; *‘ why i’s a live vaemint.’ » Now,’ says the old lady, ‘1 reckon you “are satisfied that it aint the kind of hat you are lookin for, and you ean go some- Where else and search for your old hat.’ | A jolt of the cars here nearly threw him into her lap, on which she gave a slight scream, and called for protection. _ | * Perbaps this is your hat, sir” said the | wag who was personating the conductor, | ng about at the same time handing bim his cha- ' peau, with the ticket sale in the hat-band, With an exclamation of pleasure, he seiz- ed it. ; ‘Here take the conearned tic you ? he exclaimed, handing. it misculously ; but every body ¢ Won't nobody hev it” he. ‘] vow tew gracious | wo kety will es ) your tickets tT exe t Py h Ab fa wliged locks I Ofer brows so sanby. bri Whose. sunilés. wei In the spring im Like the chan zefu They have. pas .

This latter party had a sharp en- counter with the advance of the enemy, the main body being found posted at a strong point not far from the factory of Contreras, In the skirmish some six or eight Mexicans were kill- ed and as many more taken prisoners—on our side not aman wastouched. ‘The result of the recopnoissance proved favorable, Tt was as- certained that a road could be made which would enable the army to reach San Angel, and thus turn the strong batteries at San Antonio, and perhaps others the enemy might have upon the road between that and the eity of Mexico.

Yet so it was. Gen, Seott himself, accompanied by General Worth, started for the scene of action, when they were met by Capt. Mason with the joyful intelligence that Valencia had been completely routed after a short butterrible struggle. ‘The attack upon his works was #fauned by Gen. Sinith, and resulted in the capture of 15 pieces of artillery, and some 1,500 prisoners—among them Generals Blanco, Garcia, Mendoza, and the notorious Salas; all the ammunition and camp equipage, while the road along which those who escaped fled was strewed with mus- kets.

AN OBJECT OF CHARITY. We observed at the Court House in Fayetteville on Thursday last, a little girl, about 13 years old, who is helpless as an infant. her mother, poor woman, being obliged to carry her in her arms all the time, unable even to sit alone, exceptina cradle or crib. She is idiotic—knows no one person from another. except her mo- | ther from every body else. Her limbs have no flesh on them—nothinge but the skin and bone 3 and her hands and arms are nearly always in a sort of convulsive motion, carrying first one hand and then the other to her mouth; with a savage crip of the teeth, she bites her hands an- til they have become inflamed and sore. she can eat nothing unless it be chewed and put into her mouth. We learn from her mother, that she has been so from in- fancy. ‘There is nothing else remarkable about her except that her face is tull. and her eyes mostly closed, like a person who Is near-sighted, Her mother lives in the upper end of this county ; is a poor Woman, and, under this atiliction, really needs the sympathies and the charities of all who have means to alleviate the distressed.— Cvuvrolinian.

But now imag- ine the position of this portiow of the army, numbering 3500 at the outside, without artille- /ry or cavalry, while the enemy in front and on the left had 19,000 troops—those in the fort | said to be the best of Mexico—with 22 pieces of artillery, and among his troops about 7000 cavalry. It was evident that some decisive ac- | tion had to be taken—that some great effort had to be made—and Gen. Smith and Col, Ri. ‘ley, seconded as they then were, were just the -men competent to the task, An attack on the main work was determined upon, and the move. ment to take place at three o’clock of the fol- lowing morning. However, here another ob stacle presented itself—the force of Gen. Smith was not strong enough to attack the main work and hold the village at the same time, and it was of the utmost importance he should do so —for if he drove the enemy from this main work, and in his retreat he secured possession of the village, he conld hold it long enough to ‘allow his troops to get away, and in all proba- bility seriously embarrass any further move- ments of our army until be was safely fixed somewhere else. Itis said that fortune favors ithe brave—and in this instance it most truly did —for while Gen. Smith was preparing for his attack, Gen. Shields reported his near approach with his brigade of South Carolina and N. York Volunteers—and here was an exhibition of magnanimity on the part of a high-minded sol- dier to a brother officer. When Gen. Shields arrived he was the ranking officer and could have assumed the command, but he was not the man to pluck the bright laurels about to be gathered by a brotber soldier in carrying one of the strong works of the enemy—according- ly he moved subject to the command of Gen. Smith, and his brigade was placed in the vil- lage of Ensaldo, as circumstances might re- quire, either to cut off the retreat of the troops from Contreras or to take the reserve of the enemy in flank, if it should change its front and attempt to force towards Contreras. . At 3 o’elock, on the morning of the 20th, our troops commenced their movement towards the front of attack—the night was so dark that the men could not go out of reach of one another for fear of losing their way. ‘Phis caused the movement to be so slow that day-break ap- proached before the head of (en. Cadwalader’s brigade commenced descending into the ravine at the village. As soon as Col. Riley got out of the deep ravine, and ata point where it was thought the rear of the work could be approach- ed, the head of the column halted and closed— at the same time drawing the loads out of the guns supposed to be wet. Col. formed his brigade in column hy divisions—and thus the column stood formed, Col. Riley’s brig- ade on the advance, next Gen. Cadwallader’s and Gen. Smith’s brigades, together with the sappers and miners, under the command of Maj. Dimick, closed up the rear—leaving Gen. Shields at the vilage. Col. Riley continued up the ravine bearing a little to his left, and as he raised over the bank he stood fronting the rear of the enemy’s works—but he was protected from the severity of its tire by the favorable po- sition of the ground. As soon as Col. Riley ascended the bill and came in full view of the | enemy, they immediately opened a warm. fire upon him, Col. Riley threw, out-bis. two ad- vanced divisions as skirmishets, and said for: ward—‘ Now boys give them hell—close in with them and let the*bayonet do its work” — ‘and his command rushed down the slope with a desparation and enthusiasm enough to strike terror to the heart of the boldest—while the rear of his command moved steadily forward in solid block with the most mechanical precision. The sappers and miners, and the rifle regiment which had been thrown across a ravine inter. vening between the one they had passed up and tre, got up at immense cost, for the exhibi- tion of crime ona grand scale. There the | hell within the human breast blazes out | fiercely and without disguise. A more fearful helt in any region of the universe. cannot well be conceived.

A California correspondent of the New York Tribune writes, from Santa Barbara, May 25th; “ You doubtless hear much at home of the ficulties that have existed between General Reseed: Col. Fremont and Com. Stockton ; they originated in this way: The Commodore | had co-operated with Free of the country, and as ranking officer, assumed mont in the x ” ¢ G : Col.

One of the most sa- gacious movements made by a Mexican offi- cer was made at this place. Altera large portion ofthe Mexican army had passed through a very narrow pass and our troops afier them, he formed a squadron of lancers in the pass, laid down their arms and surrendered, thus ef- fecting the escape of those who had already ! ) passed through—those of our troops who were | nearest having to take possession of the pris. oners and guard them back, and before anoth. | er force could go in pursuit they were out of | reach. In this fort there were captured 22 pieces of _artillery, mostly large size, a great number of | packmules, a large quantity of ammunition and munitions of war, and upwards of 1500 prison- ers, among them were several officers of high rank. The enemy left dead upon the field, which we have buried, upwards of 700—but his oss was certainly much heavier—as the Mex- icans were still burying their friends when I passed over the battle-ground two days ago— there were many more killed when the Rifles ‘-enggged on the 19th than we had any idea— their unerring aim told with powerful effect. The troops in the Fort were commanded by Valencia, those outside hy Santa Anna. Among the highest achievements of the morn. ing’s engagement was the re-capture of the two Buena Vista six-pounders, belonging to Cap. tain Washington's battery, by one of the light ‘companies of the same regiment. They now stand before the door of Gen. Twiggs, and [ hope when he shall meet his old friend Gen. Taylor he will bave present these beautiful tro. phies to claim the congratulations.* All the small arms taken were immediately destroyed. The arms were secured and a detachment left to protect the ordnance, ammunition and prisoners—the column formed for the purpose of pursuing the enemy, who bad been met bya force trom San Angel, when Gen. Twiggs ar- rived and ordered a speedy and most vigorous pursuit of the enemy, which was immediately done—Gen. Shields’ brigade in advance, next Gen. Twiges’ division, and the rear by Gen. Pillow’s division—the rifles and sappers and miners in advance as skirmishers. ‘There now ensued a sort of a running fight all the way to San Auge|—the enemy endeavoring to make a stand at every point on the road—but the un- erring fire of the rifle made every place too hot for them, and they were compelled to take re- fuge in Churubusco. “At San Angel Gen. Pillow arrived anc the command, when the whole column moved down to Culican, when Gen.

Prompt in the discharge of his‘own duties, he required all-with whom he had business, to do likewise. As a friend, there was no bound to his friendship. Hon- est himself in the discharge of all his duties in a social relation, he formed a character admired hy those who knew him best ; and as an officer of the law, none fear- ed him bat those who were yiolaters of the law. Mr. Bridges, however, from too much kindness to others, and an overweening confidence in all, became unfortunate, and left the scenes of his usefulness here, to seek anoth- er home in the West. If he had faults, they were of the | head, and not of the heart ; for the writer of this article knew him well, and has often sympathized wi in _ his dist resses. Subsequdaf to his removal in X i Carolina, letters have aa xhibited to me injwhiehthe ot a posers of his affection seeined to have lost n the place of his nativity. Nay, on one occasion, he ex- hibited the deepest interest in the people here: It was on unusual season, and many persons feared the dread- ful scourge of a famine. Under this apprehension, Mr. Bridges wrote to a friend. “I learn,” said he, “ that your crops are short, and that many of the poor will pro- bably suffer. God grant them deliverance—for, altho’ I am far off in a distant land,—have formed new asso- ciations, and have been separated from my brethren,— still I feel that whatever disturbs or injures them, is an affliction to me ; for Chatham County is the place of my nativity. I love her yet; she gave me birth; her soil contains the bones of my ancestors. She occupies my thoughts much in my waking moments, and the bright- est picture of fancy, woven in dreams by night, makes her the only Eldorado on earth.” His dying request, as I learn, was that he should be remembered, and his death chronicled in the Carolina papers.—[ Communicated.

The oldest political jourual, properly ' periodical, is the Gazette de France, in- stituted as far back as 1631. In 1753, there were published in England yearly but 7,411,757 papers, or, to be more clear- ly understood, there were only that many ‘sheets circulated from all the publications inthe kingdom. In #760 this number was increased to 9,000,000; in 1837 to more ‘ than 48,000,000, and in 1847 to 65.000,000. _ This increase is extraordinar istiows the power of the press.

Could any thing be more complimentary to the people of the United States?

But the subject | having become a theme of general discussion, and a portion-of the prees having indicated a disposition to censure in advance the course of the £0mmanding Officer, we have deemed , it ourduty to inquire into the ciecumstances, so-faras known here from any authentic source, and to lay the result before our readers. It appears that the North Carolina Regi- ment had been some time in camp with those from Virginia aud Mississippi. ‘ke soldiers of the two latter had taken up an aversion to Col. Paine. and, as he was informed, had fre- quently threatend his life, and advised his own men to take it. ‘heir hostile feeling was fur- ther manifested by saluting him with insulting noises as he passed their quarters; in dischar- cing of his duties as TVield Officer of the day. These ineults coming from crotyds of men, were noticed in no other way than by com- plaint to their Otiicers. Ite had never spoken to a soldier of cither of these Regiments, un- less brought into contact. with them in the course of duty, which had required him to have some of them confined for breaches of discipline. ‘his state of feeling having con- tinued for several weeks, on the night of the 14th of August a crowd of more than 100 men p gazettes of our res}: took its Malthe right mreother been endowed with the faculty of speech. u- May we not, while considering him, with a y © that epoch, news- | ' papers were consecrated: @ ihe announce. | empt from the stamp and the onerous ser- | vices of the post.

Both were of the opinion that it could have been avoided, and that the country in question could have been acquired also. The country, however, being involved in the war, the general belief of the Whigs has been and is that the best prospect of a permanent and conclusive peace lay in the vigorous prosecution of hostilities. Looking to the character of the adversa- ry it seemed apparent that when the rup- ture had once gone to the extent of blood- shed, and the pride of Mexican national- ity had been so deeply wounded no other effectual course was left but to accept the issue which had been thus precipitated, and Government into one decisive conflict. to concentrate all our disputes with that. —S Seo ~ MARKETS. ’ Salisbury, Oct. 7—Bacon 9; Lard 9; Coffee 9 a 10; Cotton 8 ; Corn 25; Flour 44; Feathers 25; Iron 3a 44; Beeswax 20; Oats 14°a 15+ Sagar (brown) 9 a 11; Salt, bushel, 1,00 ; Sack 3 00; Whiskey 25 a 36 ; Wheat 75; Cotton Yarn 90 cts.

Of the merits of our controversy with Mexico, of her blind obstinacy and eontinued eva- Sions and delays, we here say nothing, If the issue must end in war it was for Congress to say so, and to take the pre- liminary steps tothatend. The President | would have found his constitutional duty in laying before Congress, from time to i time, the facts as they occurred, with such recommendations as he might think pro- iper to oiler. In acquiring by annexation the claim of Texas, whatever it might be, _to certain territory which Mexico also claimed, and Which was hers by occupan- icy, Congress carefully abstained fram pre- _have rested upon one man. the blood of Whigs.

Among them some of the best officers of the Reg- ulars as well as Volunteers. When the war will now end it is impossible to say. There is every prospect of its being car- ried on for years; and the only remedy if they do not know it already, that the same boldness and determination which the enemy in the field, will be exhibited in defence of the Constitution and in re- buke of Executive usurpations at home. Baltimore American. Gen. Scott and the Administration. The public are justified in inferring, over the head of Gen. Scott, and will de- | scend without mercy upon him in the event of any ihjury resulting from the ne- | gotiations at Mexico. | The appointment of Mr. Trist was well | calculated to embarrass Gen. Scott, by | dividing that responsibility which should Mr. Tristjg solely charged with the negotigtie Gen. Scott is the cog nander of the Army. Mr. Trist might attribute our failure to obtain a peace to the act of Gen. Scott. We have scen enough of Mexican faith to be aware that though it is expressly provided that neither party shall, during its continuance, receive reinforcements, our enemy would not hesitate to avail. themselves of a prolonged -negotiation to inerease their force, and although Gen. Scott might be aware of this, he would hot put an end to the armistice, and re- | sume hostilities without placing it in the power of Mr. Trist to throw all the re- sponsibility of the failure of the negotia- tions upon him. The position of Gen. Scott is therefore any thing but a pleasant one, and we shall be agreeably surprised if an attempt is not made by the Administration to place him the wrong.—?cet. Luiclligencer. Tie Designs of the Administration.— The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger, whose speculations on afiairs at Washington are in the main | tty ac eurate, thus writes on the 22nd ‘ 2 , September: « One thing you may. however, set dow, as certain, which is this—that the ad istration is resolved, after this, to ‘the commissioners or with the Congress, in failing to obtain the requisite majority | of voters. On this point, the whole cabinet ‘is a unit, and the President himself deter- | mined and resolved. The question then 'to be debated will only be how are we to | go. and whether we shall draw a line, or ‘subjugate and subdue the whole.

Then Mr. Trist, unclothing himself of his official powers, remarked to the Mex- ican commissioners that he thought it would be much better for Mexico to cede the whole of Upper California to the Uni- ted States, for which that Government would certainly pay fifteen or twenty mil- lions of dollars. This would probably be agreed upon, if | the following article had met with the as- sent of the Mexicans. That the Texian boundary line would | run along from the mouth of the Rio Grande, in the left side, to the right side of the Rio Gila. Bat this last proposition was rejected. The Mexicans would not yield one inch of ground the other side of the Neuces. Mr. Trist then asked 45 days, as he | said he was not authorized to accept such | @ proposition. but the Mexicans replied | they would give but five days and no. more. On the fifth day (the 7th) a letter was written by Santa Anna to Gen. Scott, ac- cusing him of breaking the armistice, on some trifling pretexts. | Gen'l. Scott answered making similar charges. ' On the 8th, in the afternoon, a body of | a few hundred men of Gen. Scott’s were | sent to attack Chapultepec.

According to the Pittsburgh Gazette, Mr. Dallas stated that the revenue for the first three quarters amounted to $26,000,- 000! To produce this sum, an importa- tion of $145,000,000 was necessary, al- | lowing the valuation to have been entire- ly fair. As, however, it was incontestibly ‘shown by Mr. Webster, that immense frauds would be inevitably practiced un- der the ad valorem system, we have not ' the least doubt that it reached 160 or 170,- | 000,000!

We have heard that it certainly does not exceed that estimate. Now, if, with the assistance of the fa- mine'in Europe, which according to an esti- mate presented by us the otherday, swept out of our ports, within one year, forty-five millions which would never have gone but for its existence, the exports were kept up with the imports and nothing more, it is pretty evident that when this_ demand shall have ceased, we shall have this 45 millions against us.

Whig. FOR THE WATCHMAN. IMPORTANCE OF OUR OWN HISTORY. History is both a useful and a delightful study : while we stand on this point of time, this ever shifting now be- tween an eternity past, and an eternity to come, we de- light to use it as a point of observation, to survey that past ; to read the records of former ages, as well as to | lay plans for the future, and to consider our relation to posterity and an endless futurity. And especially when that history relates to the land | when its scenes have been laid where we have spent our childhood ; and under the skies that have smiled upon us in happier hours, and in maturer that gave us birth ; years ; when the transactions recorded contain the lives | and actions of the honored dead, whose names we bear, and whose blood flows in our veins ; then, history is, and ever will be, doubly interesting. Our Country is dearest of all lands; the memory of our ancestors, is among our fondest subjects of thought and affection. ~ And while we rejoice in our freedom, and in our own glorious history ; in order by contrast to heighten the es- timate we should have of what we enjoy ; and to kindle up a more ardent zeal in the minds of your readers, to investigate and study our own history ; and to preserve what few documents may yet be in existence to elucidate struggle more fixed and forward, than that of North Car- a had for years together, formed the subject of ta ~ ee sions of the parents on the heads of the children,’ we have, at length, every other refage proving insufficient, taken courage to examine the authentic records of our Revolutionary days: aud to our unspeakable surprise, have discovered that, so far from their exhibixing athe | smallest ground for the accusations; to. recklessly made on our patriotism, every thing contributes to produce the belief, that there was no State engaged in that great olina.” ® So say the Historical Society ; and we will endeavor, hereafter, (if permitted) to furnish some proof with .re- "gard to the interest taken in that great contest, in this , County, (then Rowan.) It is our present object to awa- _ ken in the minds of the community, a deepen interest in. | | | this subject, in order that what written docyments re- | main, may be carefully preserved :. and that’ ‘what is | faithfully ippyessed on the memories of the aged men _ of a former generation yet lingering amongst us, but soon to be numbered with the dead, may be. transferred to other tablets, not more permanent indeed, but more ac- cessible, and useful to survivors. Whatever trouble it | may require ; whatever labor it may cost, it is to be tacked by a large force of Mexicans.

With these remarks, sir, upon the tone and temper which, in my opinion, belong to all constitutional Whigs, here and else- where, I shall proceed to make a few re- marks upon the leading and most inter- esting topic of the day. I have said, sir, that we are engagedin up a War, in my opinion unnecessary, and therefore unjustifiable. I hold it to be a war unconstitutional in its origin’ I hold it to be a war founded upon pretexts. Sir, the law of nations, embodying the gener- al sense of mankind, instructs us that the motives of war are good or vicious.— Where war is founded on a conviction of necessity, in a sole desire to promote the - public good or defend a good motive. in any oblique purpose ; when waged only for conquest, for acquisition, for renown, vate ambition, or for party motive is vicious. goesturther. It maintains this distinction, that there may be causes fora war w When founded purposes ; the fur- t from necessity. and Mt rights of the country.

Well, then, sir, what was in truth the Come that w real object of the war? If all these were pretexts, what was in fact the true motive? the motives. so far as we can look into the about thes designs and objects of our rulers, what Mr. Slidell _ was the motive, age of the 11th as founded, the declaration that just ground y any evidence in point , Texas to t as commenc- | E were our own case | have no doubt Possessions as an act of war. at, although this was the hich the recognition further pretexts mediately a xeculive to | the simme I believe that is true.

The Democratic Senators voted the other way, # The Northern Democracy (they call themselves and I may therefore use the term) wished, pwish now, to carry ou the war, acquire all territory we may, and‘receive it into the dion, relying on the Wilmot Proviso to keep bit ’slavery. On the other hand, the Southern Democracy would acquire the territory, but make no prohibition of slavery. ‘The sections of the Democracy both agreed as to obtaining port ofthe warand of acquisition, leaving it to be settled afterwards whether the annexed country should be free territory or slave terrijory.

Windle arrived at an early hour Monday morning from Vera Craz vie Tampico. She left Vera Cruz on Sunday, the 26th of Sep- tember, and Tampica on the 30th. We learn through a source entitled to great respect that in the recent battles of the 8th and 13th ult.,the American army had twenty-seven officers killed and forty- five wounded. Capt. Cady, of the 6th In- fantry was among the killed. We have no confirmation whatever of the death of any of our generals. By this arrival we have no later news | direct from Gen. Scott’s headquarters, but we learn that letters have been received by commercial houses in Tampico, from their correspondents in the city of Mexico, confirming entirely our former reports of the Mill del Rey and Chapultepec fights on the 8th and 13th of September, in which Gen. Scott carried the place at the point of the bayonet. It appears from the following circular that Gen. Santa Anna determined at once upon the conclusion of the battle of the 13th to abandon the capital. The verbal report is that he retired to Guadalupe, which is scarcely three miles from the pieces of artillery. The accuracy of the letter from Orizaba to Mr. Dimond, pub- | sively circulated by other papers. Santa. Anna evacuated the city expressly to ‘avoid such a bombardment. His formal -entry may not have been made for a day | or two, but the city was at our mercy on | ‘the 13th.

Gen. Pillow has almost.entirely recovered. Since commencing this I have heard another rumor to the effect that Alvarez and the Congress of Puebla have risen upon Santa Anna and put him to death.

At all events, the least that can be done | is to award just honor and praise, in no stinted or niggardly measure, to those who have no other remuneration to expect for their brave deeds. ‘The batties of Contreros and Churu- busco certainly rank among the most brilliant achievements of the age. A little band of elev. en thousand audacious invaders have defeated, with immense slaughter, an army of thirty thou- sand troops, drawn up in a position oftheir own choosing, on their own soil, to defend their al. tars and hearths, in the very heart of their coun- try. But it was not alone the indominable val- or of our trcops which distinguished these bat. tles. ‘They were to an equal degree marked with all the skill, science, and foresight of a masterly strategy. | In turning the rockey and almost impreg- nable passes of Penon and Mexicalcingo, forti- | fied with terrific batteries, upon which the ene- my had expended the labor of months, General Scott displayed the most consummate general. ship. It was not the mere avoiding or eva. ding these formidable posts which constituted its merit. It was, that his cool and practised eye discerned at a glance that a passage could be cut through dense forests and tangled defiles, and heaps of huge rock, where the enemy nev- er dreamed that such an exploit was conceiva- ble. It was a repetition of the same skilful outflanking manceuvre by which he had before spared so much valuable,life at Cerro Gordo— a movement which rendered all the labo- rious preparations and defences of the enemy useless, and which Santa Anna himself pro- nounced to be masterly and worthy of Napoleon. It has been the crowning merit of Scott that, while he has been every where victorious, he has also everywhere husbanded his forces. Dar- ing and intrepid to the last degree where thos? qualities were called for, he has at the same time been careful never wantonly to weste the lives of his troops in unnecessary stormings of reckless assaults. Under almost any other general, his mere handful of troops would long since have melted away from repeated collisions with inert but overwhelming masses. With a MAJOR GENERAL SCOTT.

An immense crowd of blanketed leperos ical papers, the party we could name—not only polit- but some who hold official stations in the Government. It plainly _ shows the difference in men, and the want of capacity inJsome to put the right and proper estimate wpon those who have de- monstrated to the wotld their great tal- ents and the ease and aceuracy,with which they can bring them into use. .All-no | doubt remember how the Locofoco ‘press ridiculed the veteran Scorr about’ the hasty plate of soup,” spoken of. in his, let- ter in answer to one from Secretary Mar- cy, rather intimating that he was not in he great hurry as he should be in Mexico; and how the very exper military characters at the head of seized upon the letter as disrespe tfal the President and prevented his got Mexico at that time. Wesay, when this is remembered, it cannot but be gratifying to the General and his numerous friends | “througbout the country, to see such ac- knowledgements coming not only from a political opponent of high-toned feeling, but forced from those who were loudest in their denunciations against him before \ | be ing to one of the ablest Generals of the | starting for |p Were committed. On the 16th things were The apparently impregnable works on Cha. pultepec, alier a desparate st , were tri- /umphantly carried—Gens.

Gen. Quitman, supported by Gen. Smith’s brigade, took the road by the Chapultepec aqueduct towards the Belen gate aad the Cin- dudela ; Gen. Worth, Supported by Gen. Cad- walader’s brigade, advanced by the San Cosme _ aqueduct towards the garita of that name. Both given at the outset to blow up and demolish ev- ery house or church from which one man was fired upon, the disturbances would have been at once quelled. As itis, I trust that the lesson | the rabble and their mischievous Jeaders have | received to-day, may deter them from future out- | rages. _ On entering the palace. Gen. Scott at once named Gen. Quitman governor of Mexico—a /most excellent appointment. Some wag im- mediately proclaimed aloud in the plaza as fol- lows : “ Gen, John A.

It was also a great thing—a sight, in fact, full of moral granduer— | when four thousand two hundred tattered and wayworn soldiers under his command entered the magnificent city of Puebla, and, with all the confidence of conquerors, stacked their arms ‘and laid themselves down to sleep in the great | | square, surrounded by a hostile population of eighty thousand. “ But, last of all, and more admirable than all, has been the care with which he has nursed and kept together his little band of eleven thou- | sand, and the almost fabulous audacity and still more incredible success with which he has pushed them step by step, to the very heart of a civilized nation of seven millions, and to the gates ofa capital of 200,000 souls, the renown- ed seat of a legendary and mythic magnificence and the most ancient and best built cily on the continent. If modern warfare has any paral- lel for this great feat of arms, we know not where to look for it. _ “The successive triumphs of Vera Cruz, of Cerro Gordo, of Puebla, and of Mexico, undim- med as they have hitherto been by a single re- verse, have unquestionably raised the reputation of the commander to a very great height, and laced it, to say the least fully on a level with that of the greatest Generals of his time. Nor is there“ any debying that those’ victories have een of such an order that, while they elevate ssful leader, they also, to at least an Meeree, exalt the character and extend nown of his country. Hence we cannot, ing ourselves to make any apology for what | appears to'us a just notice of Gen. Scott, on the | score of his being a Whig.

Buncombe pro- per is now bounded South by Henderson, the line running across from West to East, at the junction of Cane Creek with the French Broad, East by the Blue Ridge separating it from Burke, North East by Yancey, North West by the Unaka Moun- tains and the Bald Mountains, separating it from Tennessee, and West~by Pisgah and other Mountains, separating it from Haywood. Yancey, Buncombe and Hen- derson form an irregular area, complete- ly hemmed in by lofty mountains. The French Broad is the great river of Buncombe, and a very remarkable curi- It rises on the northern side of the Macon and or worn a passage, forming numerous” beautiful cascades on its way.

How. | ever, I haven’t time to talk about this now. You will get the accounts of the battles in Gineral Scott’s letters, so I needn’t say a great deal about them. But it’s been a hard up-hill work all the way from Vera Cruz here ; and I don’t think my old friend Gineral Jackson bim- self would have worked through all the difficul- ties and done the business up better than Gin- eral Scott has. But the killed and the wound. ed, the dead and the dying, scattered all along the way for three hundred miles, it’s a heart- aching thought. I don’t love to think about it. It is too bad that we didn’t have more men, so as to march straight through without fighting, instead of having jest enough to encourage the enemy to bring out their largest armies and fight their hardest battle. One of the hardest brushes we had, after I got here, was the attack on Chapultepec. I able embers, sooner than take the trouble to procure an adequate supply of fire wood from the adjacent forest. Scant fare, scant clothing and scant housing, with little or no work, seem to constitute the climax of their felicity. On the 28th Sept., I left Asheyille, and bade farewell to Buncombe.

But they were too few to hazard a battle, and did not venture notwith- At length, nature was ex- hausted, and the boy was released from their savage cru- | elty by death. | An anecdote, perhaps worth relating, is told of a par- ; ; ,; | ty, during the time of staying at the Fort, which went one evening late to a still-house at the old Morrison , place by the mill, where they had some whiskey ready for | doubling. They kindled the fire, but it went out ; they | started it again, and the third time, and it went out. Becoming now alarmed, and thinking there must be some witchcraft about the fire, they withdrew to a house, about a quarter of a mile distant,and spent the night.— When they came out early in the morning, they discev- ered a party of Indians just leaving the still-house, who had undoubtedly been lying there in ambush all night, expecting them, in order to cut them off; and then they interpreted the unwillingness of the fire to burn, as a pro- vidential warning of their danger, and a means of their escape from death. There has long been a tradition in the country that there was a very deep well at the Fort; and that after cannon, was thrown into the well: the walls were of wood and were burned. There are no traces of the Fort now, but the cellar, mostly filled up, and the spot grown over with bushes. Last February, a subscription was made, and a sufh- cient sum raised by the citizens of Statesville and vicin- ity, to open the well ; hoping to find the field -piece that brought over when he came into office. An excavation was made where a well had been, to the depth of about forty feet. Nothing was found of value, and it was discovered that this well never had furnished any water ; but that those who dug it had come to a rock which they could not penetrate, though there were marks of their efforts, and they ceased. They either had no well, or some other well than this, which ANTIQUAS. BY THURSDAY MORNING'S MAIL From the N. O. Picayune, Oct. 24. BRRIVAL OF JAMES L. DAY. Five Days Later News from Vera Cruz.

The Arco Iris of the 13th inst., furnishes in- teresting news from Puebla, which is transla- ted to our hands by the Genius of Liberty. It is a fitting sequel to the above correspondent : | Puesta, 28th.—At 5 o’clock on the evening of yesterday the points of San Juan de Dios, Santa Rosa and Santa Monico commenced a heavy cannonade upon the American works.— The latter immediately began to throw cannon shot, bombs and grenades into the centre of the city, which suffered in consequence some con. siderable injury. Don Marino del Rio, whilst standing with his wife on the back balcony of his house, was struck dead by a cannon ball, At about 8 o’- clock P. M. the cannonade ceased, but com. menced again at the dawn of the following day. Pues, 29th.—By order of Santa Anna a body of troops was yesterday posted in the Con- vent of Santa Teresa, at one of the corners of which a breastwork of cotton bales was erect- ed. Four hundred cotton bales have already been demanded of the house of Velasco for the defence ofthe city. ‘To prevent the completion of this work the Americans from the fort of San Jose kept up a continual fire upon the workmen which, being stoutly returned by the Mexicans, the discharge of bombs and grenades from the American lines. greatly increased. At this mo- ment a considerable number of private citizens went to Santa Anna, who was at Carmen, and requested of hima piece of artillery, which be- ing granted, together with a small body of men for its management, they quickly marched for the Convent of Santa Rose and opened a well] directed fire upon the American works. We were in the greatest consternation, but night at last supervening, everything became quiet. The nuns of Santa Rosa were transferred in litters to Santa Catalina, and it is said that the same thing will be done with those of Santa - Monica, although the latter are strongly op. posed to leaving their monastic asylum. | | } PurBia, 30th.—To-day partial tranquility reigns in the citv. Now and then can be heard the report of a cannon, and the explosion of some grenades thrown in the direction of San ‘ Juan del Rio, in the rear ot whose church Gen, | Rea last night concluded a battery, with which he intends to open upon San Jose. Our soldiers are complaining very much, and say that they are ready to die of hunger, not having received any thing in the shape of pro- visions for some considerable time. Yhe greatest enthusiasm against the Ameri- cans prevails throughout the entire city. Puresra, Oct. 2d.—Since Santa Anna’s de- parture the commanding has totally sickened off. ‘The cotton store-house of Velasco took | ‘fire last night, and was barned down to. the ground ; and 200 bales of the same article were iy. consumed in the convent of Santo Do. pithout any one’s being able to account de in which they were fired.

At thea mass meeting for New York City @ County, held a few evenings since, one the speakers, Mr. J. R. Ingersoll, o of all the country we have conquered, to my mind, offers no fewer objections than an- nexation. According to the opinions of the persons in this army whose views, by their acknowledged ability, are entitled to the most weight, it would take an army o cupy and garrison the different States and military posts. How Jong would it take us to get this force equipped and in the field? The President last winter called for ten additional regiments, (ten thous- and men,) and, although it was during the short session of Congress, a portion of the troops have not yet arrived, and those which have come did not arrive at the seat of operaiions until the month of Au- gust. They were enlisted for the war, un- der the excitement of active operations and a spirited campaign.

An election was held throughout the State of New York on Tuesday, the 2nd instant, for Members of the State Legis- lature, and for Lieut. Governor, Comp- troller, and other Officers of the State Go- verriment. Both parties, the Whig and Demécratic, had regularly nominated can- didates for all the offices. The results of this election, so far as they have reached us, are as they will be found stated in an- other column. * Though the Whigs have, at this elec- tion, voted probably not far from the whole strength of the Whig party proper, their | vote in the city of New York, and in ina- ny other districts, has beendcubiiess swell- ed by the votes of not a tew of those who are dissatisfied with the ultraism of the leaders of “the Democracy” on certain prominent questions of National Policy. We do not, therefore, claim the event of this election as purely a Whig triumph. But we do claim it as a triumph of Whig principles over the War and Con- quest party—over the ruling party in the General Government—and a decisive re- buke of its plans of “ annexatjon,” con- quest, and dominion, originally devised vand set on foot with a view to the perpet- vation of its own political power, without a proper regard to the will of the People or to the interests and true glory ofthe coun- try. That this is the issue upon which the | People of New York have, at the late election, pronounced so decisive a verdict, might be presumed even without any spe- cial evidence of the fact. But the issues have been fairly stated by public meetings and by the public press of both parties, so as to make it absolutely certain that ne- ver, in any thing like so large a commu- nity as that of the State of New York, has the event of a General Election turn- ed upon a closer statement of the princi- ples contended for on each side. We have before us, at this moment, the Albany Argus, (the Central Organ of the Democratic party,) published_on the day before the election, in which the charge is sounded, and the party rallied to the ‘polls, in the following terms: ~* * But one day remains for preparation for the important contest to-morrow. « Let it be improv- ed in all honorable ways to bring about right results. What Democrat, who sincerely de- sires the ascendency of democratic principles, will not devote the little time that remains to his party and his country ?

Salisbury, N.C. THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 11, 1847. OC Our correspondent “ C.” on the first page, very justly attaéhes great impor- tance to the matter of having good school houses. It is a very common error in our State, to suppose that any sort of a build- ing will answer for this purpose. If the teacher and children have te shiver with cold—their teeth chattering through the whole length of dreary winter,—it is quite certain they will not profit much by going toschool. They should be comfortable. School houses should be well adapted to the purpose intended—well planned—well lighted—and capable of shutting out and admitting air, as circumstances of heat and cold require. We have-not closely examined “C’s.” calculations of Joss and gain as sustained | , t they are about right. I> We see that the Democratic press of the State are rejoiced that President Polk, has reinstated Lieuts. Pender and Singletary, who were dishonorably dis- charged by Gen. Wool from the North Carolina Regiment, on the charge of par- ticipating inthelate mutiny. This amounts to a censure of Gen. Wool, and the offi- cers who concurred with him in the dis- mission of these young men; and it was done, we presume, without a word from | that distinguished officer in explanation of | the conduct which he deemed necessary for him to pursue, under the circumstan- ces, and of which the President is no bet- ter informed, it is likely, than the Coun- | try generally. However the facts in the case may be, it has doubtless been badly managed. If Gen. Wool acted without law, the President has probably done right; though it is questionable whether it would not have been better for the ser- vice had he not been so hasty. It is not | probable that the act of reinstating will c be the last one of importance in connec- | tion with the subject, and we shal! there- fore soon expect to hear from Gen. Wool and Col..

Messrs. Editors: Allow me to trespass on your pa- tience while I state some of the scenes that have trans- pired since I left Salisbury. I have been very much annoyed in my journey with what a certain great man called dry mud, and the sand among the long leaf pines is a great impediment to locomotion. The rocks and hills in the red lands may be considered by those who know nothing of the sand a great annoyance ; but they are nothing to be compared to the sand hills. I have since my arrival at Fayetteville, attended the sessions of the Synod of North Carolina, which so far have been to me extremely interesting. I must tell you of one thing, that interested me deeply, and I should have been glad you could have enjoyed it with me: And that was the exhibition of the deaf and dumb. It was more interesting to me from the fact that I had never geen any thing like it before. You are aware that a school for this too long neglect- ed and unfortunate class, has recently been established in the city of Raleigh, conducted by a gentleman by the name of Cook. He is in Fayetteville at Synod for the purpose of interesting the members of Synod, in behalf of the deaf and dumb. This afternoon at three o'clock was the time assigned for this interesting -exhibition.— The notice being given, a large concourse of people as- sembled. The house was full to overflowing, every eye nixed upon the happy pupils as their countenances bright- ened up at the prospect of showing that they had so far overcome the almost insurmountable obstacles that had so long chained their active minds—and that now the book of science is opened, and they too can glance over its pages, and enjoy the pleasures of science and history. The immortal spirit that seemed to be destined to re- main in the dungeon, to brood over its misfortunes and grope in ignorance, is by the labors of this truly interegt- ing and amiable gentleman, unshackled and freed, ana led not only into the plain paths of science and know- ledge, there to feast on the grandieur and glory of Him who has created all things, but at the same time are led to calgary, to set at the feet of the Saviour of the world. ‘Here I would state that it has been clearly discovered that deaf mutes can have no knowledge of God or the plan of salvation, until they are educated. It did the heart good to see them exhibit so much knowledge of the Saviour, and the readiness with which they could write down in the fairest hand, and with the greatest speed, an account of any scriptural scene that might be given : for instance, an account of the baptism of our Saviour at Jordan—his agony in the garden, &c. grace, both of which, are forever shut out from them, if permitted to remein in their present condition.

If it is sach a great sin in the eyes of Southern Locofocos, for the Whigs of the North to oppose the extension of Slavery, is it not equally so in the focos?’ Why do we not hear the anathes mas which are heaped upon Northerg Whigs, pronounced upon the Democrats of New Hampshire / In the State Con- vention of the party imethat State, they adopted this obnoxious proviso, and talked’ as largely against the admission of slaves ry into Territory which may hereafter be acquired, as the abolitionists themselves; but the Locofocos are silent ; it is no crime in them, but just let a northern whig speak on the subject and it is high treason. AW € a South can have the face even to think of name. How inconsistent and how hypo critical! Dothey suppose the people can- not see, or that their designs are not un- derstood? That it is not kecause of the real danger which they apprehend, we are certain, but because they wish to do away with the moral effect of the con- demnation of the conduct of the Adminis- tration by the people of the great State of New York. This is their object. We are sorry that this subject was ever merged into the question at issue now be- fore the people on the war; but it was forced upon us by a Democratic Congress, and introduced by a democrat, whose re- election to Congress was hailed as a great triumph, and that too, after he had thrown his fire-brand into our midst. Such being the fact. the Locofocos have no room to taunt us with having secured a victory ia the State of New York, by the aid of the enemies of Southern institutions. With as much propriety may it be said that the late Locofoco triumph in Pennsylvania was secured in this way. And persisting in this course is the best evidence we want, of the demagogue. All parties in the free States, are oppcsed to Slavery. Sons of Temperance.—We see, by the Communicator, that a division of this or- der, has been organized in Pittsborough. The Rev. C. F. M. Deems, who is 4 mem- ber and warm advocate of the Order, de- livered an eloquent and forcible lecture there on the Gth instant, concerning the plans, object and government of the Sonsof Temperance. The result, probably, was the organization of the division which has been opened. Pork.—-This article, from all accounts, will be scarce in this section of country, this year.

For one, | have always desired to see, or ra- ther to feel the effects of an earthquake. A single convulsion has sufficed to cure | all curiosity—] never wish to be present at a repetition. The same Providence that has power to shake a large city to its foundation, has the power also to lay eve- ry dome and steeple, tunnel and tower, level with the ground. But to leave, for the present, this sub- ject, and to offer a few remarks upon the army and its past deeds. It is still diffi- cult to account for the fact that we are here, here in the great capital of Mexico— not the 22.000 paper men of the Union. but what is left of the 10,000 real men by whom the work of subjugation has been accomplished. The whole seems like a dream, even to those who have taken part in the hard conflicts—yet here in Mexico ° we are, and masters. After a succession of battles. each one of which may be counted a forlorn hope—after a succession of victories, each one of which was ob- tained over an immensely superior foree— after formidable works, each one of which seemed impregnable, have been stormed and successfully carried—here, amid the * Halls of the Montezumas,” the numeri- cally insignificant band of Anglo Saxons has found a partial rest from its toils and its dangers, a breathing place after its in- numerable trials and perils. Nor the chronicles of ancient wars, nor the prow- ess of modern achievements, furnish a parallel to the second conquest of Mexico, while the lustre which hung around the name of Cortezand his hardy adventurers. burnished by the glowing descriptions of Prescott, become dimmed by the deeds of these days. acity in which every house wasa fortress: they had a population incited against them by a thousand and one idle tales and excesses they were said to have commit- repeat; a population which had learned the sieges of Saguntum and Saragossa by heart, and in their exceeding pride of va- lor doubtless thought they were to rival if not excel the deeds enacted by the de- fenders of those valiant cities. With the least reverse it was understood that all the Americans were to be massacred— the brutal murder of our wounded men at Ii! Molino proves the savage intention — and thus our army had emphatically no- thing but “ victory or death” before it.— The result as every one knows, was vic- tory—victory most complete—the entire | prostration of an enemy all powerful in numbers and position, if not in prowess. The evidence is that we are here, and that Santa Anna's proud army is scattered and | destroyed ; yet still all appears like a dream. The long roll may sound for an hour, and scarce 7000 able bodied men will flock to the alarm call; yet they are masters of the heart of the Republic.— The page that records the history of this campaign will be deemed a doubtful one | in after times; it will be difficult to credit that a handful of men numbering only) 10,000, with not 30 pieces of artillery all told, discomfitted and drove 30,000 men protected by all the subtleties of engineer- ing, and with three times their number of heavy guns; yet the proofs of Holy Writ are not stronger. The result of the two campaigns against Mexico—that of the: early Spaniards andthe ~Yankees—has been the same—the subjugation and oc- | cupation of the capital; it now remains to be seen how the world will compare the two achievements. Yours, &c., . You, in the United States, cannot be made to feel and appreciate all that stern and unflinching courage has effected in the beautiful valley of Mexico since our little army first entered it—words are in- adequate to give even a faint picture of the brilliant succession of events which have ended in the subjection of this proud capital. The deeds of Cortes, brave and vigorous as they were, must suffer by a comparison. ‘The hardy and adventurous Spaniard, surrounded by his hosts of Tlas- calan and other allies, brought agencies then deemed supernatural, to the work, had all the engines and appliances of mod- ern War at his disposal, and fought against an enemy superstitious and awe-stricken, and provided only with the ruder imple- ments of battle. Grant that they were brave—but their bravery was of a piece with that of the Hindoo widow, who fear- lessly and unresistingly chants her own death song on the grave of her lifeless husband. The followers of the’ Aztec monarch, of Moutezuma and of Guate- mozin, offered themselves as sacrifices to their idols. The mass, when all hopes of | victory had banished, still continued the light, itis true; but in their onslaughts upon the iron ranks of the Christians they were but fulfilling their own destiny, and rushing upon a doom that was inevitable. The altars of their gods demanded yearly and even daily, sacritices long before the advent of the strangers—the demands were now increased, yet the victims were ever ready. ‘True, a tollower of the cross occasionally fell, borne down by some av- alanche of pagan warriors ; but for every drop of Christian blood a river would flow, and well did Cortes know that in the end be must conquer. His calculations were. based upon mathematics. and in the pro- | blem of life and death he foresaw that the result would be in his favor.

He further says, that a ma- jority of the States north and west—in fact all of them—although entirely without resourees are still in favor of a continuance of the war. They can form no plan nor raise any means, for carrying it on, but still are not disposed to listen to any propositions of peace: The party most hostile to the United States, para- doxical as it may appear, is the one most fa- vorable to peace. Santa Anna, he thinks, in. stead of taking the route towards Oajaca as many suppose, will make the best of his way to Tuspan, and will there embark for Jamaica or some other British West India Island. Cu- ha he will not visit, he says, as while residing there he was strongly suspected of being en- gaged in some plot to overturn the Spanish Government. My informant even goes so far as to hint that a vessel is at this time in readi- ness at or near ‘Tuspan, on which the great man is to embark, and that his old and con- stant friend, Mackintosh, is an aetive agent in the business.

How is it that Gens. Quitman, Shields and Smith, all appointed the same time with Gen.

How is it thatthe first mentioned offi. cers are popular with the entire army and coun. try, and that their conduct has been made the sub- ject of public and general approval whilst the reputation of the latter is but equivocal even among his best friends, and he bas lost all cast with nine-tenths of the army if not the country?

It is because the lat- ter has the vanity to believe himself a great and most astounding military genius and the impu- _ dence to trumpet his own exploits; it is because he has a grasping ambition and a dishonest one; an ambition which diligently seeketh to build a reputation for himself even at the expense of others; it is because he has had the effronte. | ry time and again, to pester not only his own | officers but editors with stories of his prowess | and with bold requests to spread his deeds be. | fore the world; in short, it is because he bas a restless and feverish desire and craving afier all the honors of a campaign which has shed such lustre upon our arms and the insufferable _weakness to beligye that he is deserving them.

A leading, and _perhaps the most influential member of his cabinet, (Mr. Gallatin.) was, up-to the | time of its declaration, opposed to it. But nothing could withstand the irresistible \force of public sentiment. It was a just war, in its great object, as announced at ‘the time, was “Free Trade and Sailor’s Rights,” against the intolerable and op- pressive acts of British power on ihe 'ocean. The justice of the war, far from being denied or controverted, was admit- ted by the Federal party, which only ques- tioned it on considerations of policy. Be- ing deliberately and constitutionally de- clared, it was, I think, their duty to have given to it their hearty co-operation. But 1¢.massofthem did not.

And I venture toassert tha the expenditure of treasure which it has occasioned, when it shall come tobe fair- amen ly ascertained and footed up, will be found } to be more than half of the pecuniary cost | of the war of our independence. And this is the condition of the party whose arms have been every where and constantly victorious ! How did we unhappily get involved in this war! It was predicted as the con- sequence of the annexation of Texas to the United States. If we had not Texas, we should have no war. The people were told that if that event happened, war would ensue. They were told that the war between Texas and Mexico had not been terminated by a treaty of peace ; that Mexico still claimed Texas as a re- volted province ; and that, i received Texas in our Union. we too ong with her the war existing between her and Mexico. And the Minister of Mexico for- thally announced to the Government at ashington that his nation would consid- er the annexation of Texas to the United tes as producing a state of war. But all this was denied by the partisans of Annexation. They insisted we should have no war, and even impated to th who foretold it sinister motives for t groundless prediction. Bat notwithstanding a state of virtual war necessarily resulted from the fact. of annexation of one of the belligerents to the United States, actual hostilities might have been probably averted by prudence moderation, and wise statesmanship. ir Gen. Taylor had been permitted to remain where his good sense prompted him to be. lieve he ought to remain, at the point of Corpus Christi. and if a negotiation had been opened with Mexico in a true spirit of amity and conciliation, war possibly might have been prevented. But, instead of this pacifie and moderate course, whilst | Mr. Shidett was wending his way to Mex- ico with his diplomatic credentials, Gen. Faylor was ordered to transport his ecan- non, and to plant them, in a warlike atti- tade, opposite to Matamoros. on the east bank of Rio Bravo, within the very dispu- the seven years’ war of the ‘ yascless reproaches on the past, all hearts afd heads should unite in the patriotic axor to bring it toa satisfactory close. ¥e-no way that this can be done? ‘blindly continue the conflict, wisible object, or any pros- nite termination?

It hadseer ten been commenced. t ' fling pretexts ; that it had ir ‘ly waged to establish or exclude a dynas- ty to snatch a crown from the head of of | potentate and place it upon the head of: another ; that it had been often proseen- |ted to promote alien and other interests than those of the nation whose chief had proclaimed it, as in the case of English / wars for Hanoverian interests; and, in short, that such a vast and tremendoos | power ought tot to be confided to the pe- _rilous exereise of one single. man. The ts ose Cotiventiop, therefore, resolved to guard heir | the war-making power against those great abuses of which, in the hands of a mon- arch, it was so susceptible. And the se- curity against those abuses which its wisdom_devised, was to vest, the war-ma- king power in the Congress of the United States, being the immediate representa- tives of the People and the States. So apprehensive and jealous was the Conven- tion of its abuse in any other hands, that \t interdicted the exercise of the power to any State in the Union, without the con- Sent of Congress. Congress, then, in our System of Government, is the sole depos. | ory of that tremendous power. The con- stitation provides that Congress shall have power to declare war and grant letters of marque and reprisal, to make rules con- cerning captures on land and water, to raise and support armies, to Provide and maintain a navy, and to make rules for the government of the land and naval for.

Examples of similar inflic- tion of .izyeparable national.evil and in- justice might be multiplied-to an indefi- nite extent. ~The case of the annexation of Texas to the United States is a recent and an o®Bvious one, where, if it were wrong, it cannot now be repaired. Texas is now an integral part of our Union, with its own voluntary consent. Many ef us opposed the amnexation with honest, zeal and most earnest exertions.

And the rupture of that negotiatio. was produced by our Government insisting apy on a cession from Mexico of the strip or mostly barren land between the Nueces and Rio Bravo, and New Mexico, which Mexico refused to make. Sothat we are now fighting, if not for the conquest of all Mexico, as intimated in some quarters, for that narrow strip and for the barren Pro- vince of New Mexico, with its few miser- able mines. We bought all the Province of Louisiana for fifteen millions of dollars, and it is, in my opinion, worth more than all Mexicotogether. We bought Florida for tive millions of dollars, and a hard bar- gain it was, since, besides that sum, we gave up the boundary of the Rio Bravo, to which I think we were entitled, as the western limit of the Province of Louisiana, demand | 0Ut scarcely any aid from Government.— The colonies planted under its auspices | are now well established communities, with churches, schools, and other institu- | tions appertaining to the civilized state.

Rurseerorptox, N. C., Nov. 15, 1847. | To the Editors of the Southerner : My last communication for The South- erner was dated at the qniet and troly hospitable little town of Shelby. From hough hence I radiated, like the sun, (t not quite so laminous.) in all directions, sentiments and opinions which | embracing a tour through several count Western North Carolina. at This little town has about five hundted inhabitants all told, many of whom are in | great affluence. The general bean the inhabitants seems to partake of the kind of chivalry known to exist in vari- rtions of the Palmetto State. This ly wel formed, and I have no doubt a residen among them for a few months or one competent to appreciate their of etiquette, might be rendered ex ing!y pleasant and desirable. They have here two hotels, three church- es, an acidemy for boys, a fine coart house, and some half dozen mereantileé establish- ments, which sell annually about fifty thousand dollars’ worth of goods. One of the many prominent citizens of this place is Judge Foreman, formerly of the State of New York, but for several years past a resident of Ratherfordton.— Judge F. was the founder of the town of Syracuse in New York, the originator of the * safety fund” system New York, aad the projector of the Erie canal, : Judge Foreman, in his place in the Le- igislature of New York, in 1808, from | Onondaga county, proposed in that bedy _a concurrent resolution to direct a survey ‘to be made of the most eligible and direct | route of a canal to open a communica- tion between the waters of the Hodson river and Lake Erie. Previous to this time, Judge F. had been in Washington, holding an interview with Mr. Jefferson ; the object of which was ‘Silo in pressing upon | 1 a , Ha e United States the im- | and naval forces, has 1be fullaind complete war. | portance of making an appropriation for making power of the United iaiés; aed, so |a sotvey and ‘final construction of this ° possessing it, has a right to delermm@eison'tie | mammoth enterprise. Mr. Jefferson ¥e- motives, causes, and objects of any ° Swi it commences, or at any time’ during ‘t} s gress of its existence, 7 7" 8°" ~* 4. Resolved, as the pes Er meeting, that it is the right and ea inion of this duty of Con: gress to delare, by some authe tic act for what | purposes and objects thevexisting war ought to | be further prosecuted; that itis the duty of the | President, in his official conduct, to conform to such a declaration of Congress ; and that if, at- ter such declaration, the President should de. ‘cline or refuse to endeavor, by all the means, civil, diplomatic, and militgey, in his power, to execute the announced will of Congress, and, in defence of its authority, should continue to prosecute the war fur purpages and objects oth- er than those declared by that. bedy, it would become the right and duty of Congress to adopt the most efficacious measures fo arrest the fur- ther progress of the war, taking care tomake am- ple provision for the honor, and safety,.and se. curity of our armies in Mexico, in every eon. lingency. And, if Mexico should decline or ree fuse to conclude a treaty with us, stipulating for the purposes and objects so declared by Cane}. gress, it would be the duty of the Government? lo prosecute the war with the utmost vigor Une. til they were attained by a treaty of peace. 5. Resolved, That we view with serious alarm and are utterly opposed to any purpose of an. | nexing Mexico to the United States in any and especiaily by conquest ; that weg te! the two nations could not be happily gover by one common authority, owing to their great) difference in race, law, language, and religion, and the vast extent of the respective territories and large amount of their respecti¢é populations; that such a union, against. the content “of the exasperated Mexican people, could. only be ef- fected and preserved by large standigg armies and the constant application of military force : in other words hy despotic sway exercised over the Mexican people in the first instance, but which there would be just cause to‘apprebend plied to Judge F., “ You are fifty yearsin advance of the age.” But nothing datih- }ted-by this lokewarmness manifested ‘by ‘Oe from whom be had anticipated great and encouragement, he moved iNfalteringly in this cherished course, knowing that it was a noble éh- terprise for his native State, and one that would, when completed, greatly enrich _and elevate her in the estimation of her sister States. He finally, after hard strug- _gling, accomplished his object, in getting | an appropriation from the Legislature for |a survey, and ultimately for the constrie- ‘tion of the work. This canal is now the great thoroughfare for millions upon mill- ions of commerce which annually proceed through its channel. It is a standing mon- ument to the greatness of that mind which conceived so magnificent an enterprise ; ‘and the name of its founder will never die, while the sails of commerce continde to whiten the waters of the beautiful Had- “se is equal to dies of North Carolina should encourage Mr. B. in this department of American in- dustry. Near this town are found several rare specimens of minerals and precious stones, viz: the Amethyst, the Agate, a fine Dia- | mond. the Furmalin or Sharos, the Cella- . ‘lar Quartz, the Pseudomorphis Quartz, the Nickle, in a slate formation, and a ve- ig i i be | over » | eae of the, Dinhtedek at nee we de- | ry carious crystal quartz, perfectly traps- saeate, therefoieaie os sholly ia parent, of various shapes and sizes, and compatibie withdiaall -.

Resolved, That, considering the series of splendid and brilliant victories achieved by our brave armies and their gallant commanders du. ring the war with Mexico, unattended by a sin. gle reverse, the United States, without any dan. ger of their bonor suffering the stightest tar- nish, can practise the virtues of noderation and imity towards their discomfitted foe. We have no desire for the dismemberment of the United States of the Republic of Mexico, powers with which he is clothed; and that, if he fail or refuse to do so, it becomes the imper. | ative duty of Congrsss to arrest the further pro- | gress of the war by the most effectual means in its power. Let Congress announce to the nation the ob- \ _ veil by which he conceals his all-wise dis- , | pensations from mortal eyes, that he de- | | signs that Africa shall be the refuge and | ’, for to resist it, is impossible.

But, it will be repeated, are we to hav no indemnity for the expenses of this war? ethemselves, that they can detect. ech inculeates. Nevertheless, its tone—the propositions laid down tand every sentiment expressed— e their native land by lawless violence. It is a philanthrophic and consoling re- jects for which this war shall be further pro- tracted, and public suspense and public inquie- tude will no longer remain.

STOP THE THIEF. TOLEN from the Subscriber’s stable in Salisbury, on Saturday night the 16th instant, a sorrel mare ' about medium size, with a small blaze in the face, run- ning nearly to the nose, five years old next Spring, one white foot behind, thitf™fane and long tail, and paces nearly altogether. She is fresh shod before, hind feet bare, and has a very bad sore on the wethers. The thief also took away a double-reined blind-bridle, and a small saddle, and saddle-eloth. ‘The cloth is made of an old quilt. I believe the thief went in the direction of Statesville or Salem. ‘The man I suspicion is named Ben, or Ben- net Dosier. He had been about this place for a week or more previous to his disappearance. He was last seen about 10 o'clock, on Saturday night. He is about five feet 7 or 8 inches high, and wears large black whiskers, extending from ear to ear—has an impediment in speech, especially when drunk; and had on, when last seen, a black over-coat with side pockets, and velvet on the col- lar—boots and spurs. I will give the above reward for the apprehension of Mustard, (best) Leather & Carriage Varnish, &c., &c. , the thief and the mare, or Ten Dollars for either separ- - ately. oe FREDRICK 18, 1847.—25, af. ae = MOWERY.

I deem it unnecessary, after the full ex- position of them contained in my message of the eleventh of May, 18146, and in my annual message at the commencement of , | the session of Congress in December last, | to reiterate the serious causes of com- plaint which we had against Mexico be- fore she commenced hostilities. It is sufficient on the present occasion ' to say, that the wanton violation of the rights of person and property of our citi- zens committed by Mexico, her repeated acts of bad faith, through a long series of years, and her disregard of solemn trea- ties, stipulating for indemnity to our in- jured citizens, not only constituted ample cause of Waron our part, but were of such an aggravated character as would have justified us before the whole world in resorting to this extreme remedy. With an anxious desire to avoid a rupture be. tween the two countries, we forbore for’ years to assert our clear rights by force, | and continued to seek redress for the | wrongs we had suffered by amicable ne- gotiation, in the hope that Mexico might yield to pacific councils and the demands of justice. In this hope we were disap- pointed. Our minister of peace sent to Mexico was insultingly rejected. The Mexican government refused even to hear the terms of adjustment which he was authorized to propose ; and finally, under wholly unjustifiable pretexts. involved the two countries in war, by invading the ter- ritory of the State of Texas, striking the” first blow, and shedding the blood of our citizens on our own soil. Though the United States were the ag- crieved nation, Mexico commenced the war, and we were compelled, in self-de- fence, to repel the invader, and to vindi- cate the national honor and interests by prosecnting it with vigor until we coulc obtain a just and honorable peace. On learning that hostilities had been commenced by Mexico, | promptly com- municated that fact, accompanied with a succinct statement of our other causes of complaint against Mexico, to Congress ; and that body, by the act of the thirtee. th of May. 1846, declared that “by the act of the republic of Mexico, a state of ved exists between that government and the United States”—this act declaring “ the war to exist by the act of the republic of Mexico,” and making provision for its pres- { i ther orders. en with a view to intermit hostilities, until | ‘the treaty thus ratified by Mexico could be transmitted to Washington, and receive the action of the government of the Unt- nited States. te} should be extended to their surviving fam- ilies. Shortly after the adjournment of the last session of Congress, the gratifying in- telligence was received of the signal vic- tory of Buena Vista and of the fall of the city of Vera Cruz, and with it the strong castle of San Juan de Ulloa, by which it was defended. Believing that after these and other successes, so honorable to our /arms and so disastrous to Mexico, the pe- riod was propitious to afford her another opportunity. if she thought proper to em- brace it, to enter into negotiations for peace, a commissioner Was appointed to proceed to the headquarters of our army, with full powers to enter upon negotia- tions, and to conclude a just and honora- ble treaty of peace. He was not directed to make any new overtures of peace, but 'was the bearer of a despatch from the Secretary of State of the United States * | tothe Minister of Foreign Affairs of Mex- ico, in reply to one received from the lat- ter of the twenty-second of February, 1847, in which the Mexican government. was informed of his appointment, and of | his presence at the headquarters of our army, and that he was invested with full powcis to conclude a definite treaty of peace, whenever the Mexican government might signify a desire to do so. Was unwilling to subject the United States to another indignant refusal, | was yet re- | solved that the evils of the war should not be protracted a day lenger‘than might be | rendered absolutely necessary by the Mex- |. 4 iean government.

The commissioner did not reach the headquarters of the army until after an- Their The parental care Commistioners were appointed on the part _of Mexido to meet the commissioner on ‘the partpt the United States. The result of the conference which took place be- tween tire functionaries of the two gov- ernment! Was a failure to conclude a trea- | ty of pegce. _ The cbmmissioner of the United States took ore him the project of a treaty al- _ready ptepared, by the terms of which the indemnity required by the United States was a cession of territory. It is wel known that the only indemni- _ty which it is in the power of Mexico to | make in satisfaction of the just and long and the only means by which she can re- imburse the United States for the expen-_ | ses of the war, is a cession to the United | | States of a portion of her territory. Mex- ico has no money to pay, and no other _means of making the required indemnity. | If we refuse this, we can obtain nothing | else. To reject indemnity, by refusing to accept a cession of territory, would be to abandon all our just demands, and to | _wage the war, bearing all its expenses, | without a purpose or definite object. _ A state of war abrogates treaties pre- viously existing between the belligerents, and a treaty of peace puts an end to all claims for indemnity—for tortious acts government against the citizens or sub- jects of another, unless they are pravided for in its stipulations. _which would terminate the existing war, without providing for indemnity, would | and herself the aggressor in the war— to relieve herself from her just liabilities. | By such a treaty, our citizens, who hold | just demands against her, would have no remedy either against Mexico or their own government. (ur duty to these citizens must forever prevent such a peace, and /ho treaty which does not provide ample means of discharging these demands can receive my sanction, A treaty of pea¢e:should settle a’ ing differences between the two: le an adequate ession of territo : > ‘be made b xis sucha treaty, the United States ities, and assume the payment to our own citizens. If, instead of this, the United _ States were to consent toa treaty by which | Mexico should again engage to pay the heavy amount of indebtedness which a just indemnity to our government and our citi- zens would impose on her, it is notorious ‘that she does not possess the means to ‘meet such an undertaking. From sucha _treaty no result could be anticipated, but the same irritating disappointments which | have heretofore attended the violations of ‘similar treaty stipulations on the part of Mexico. Such a treaty would be but a temporary cessation of hostilities, without the restoration of the friendship and good understanding which should characterize the future intercourse between the two countries. That Congress contemplated the acqui- sition of territorial indemnity when that body made provision for the prosecution of the war, is obvious.

It contained no provision for the payment by Mexico of the just claims of our citizens. It required indem- “nity to Mexican citizens for injuries they have sustained by our troops in the prosecution of ‘the war. It demanded the right for Mexico to levy and collect the Mexican tariff of duties ou goods imported into ber ports while in our mil- itary occupation during the war, and the’ own- ers of which had paid to officers of the United States the military contributions which had been levied upon them ; and it offered to cede to the United States, for a pecuniary consider- ation, that part of Upper California lying north of latitude tuirty-seven degrees. Such were the unreasonable terms proposed by the Mexi- Can Commissioners. The cession to the United States by Mexi- co, of the provinces of New Mexico and the Californias, as proposed by the commissioner of the United States, it was believed, would be more in accordance with the convenience and interests of both nations, than any other ces- sion of territory which it was probable Mexico , could be induced to make. It is manifest toall who have observed the ac- tual conditica of the Mexican government, for ‘some years past, and at present, that if these ‘provinces should be retained by her, she coud ' not long continue to hold and guvern them.— States were not only just to Mexico, but, con- | leat for our just de- | The doctrine of no territory is the doc- | w | | | { | | | | { antepec. ‘The boundary of the Rio Grandes} : gheferred: ' co, but to all other nations, thatthe; States | within these provinces being chiefly an unin. | | such additional pe. | -af the unfavorable result of the negotiations, mercial world would participate, Wout. be secured to the United States by the ce of this territory ; while it is certain that as lon, : sf 4 if held States, would be settled ey Be Bir | harborse, and intellivent p gent portion of ou ford shelte.bay of San Franciseo, Hojlaa whale ships, a California coast, would af. + for our numerous short period become tira, rchant v em- and profitable commerce Vand ee A countries of the East. t 7ge . . ‘a These advantages, in with the” ot as it remains a part of the Mexican dominions, they can be enjoyed neither by Mexico herself or by any other nation. New Mexico is a frontier province, and has never been of any considerable value to Mexi- co. From its locality, it is naturally connected ith our western settlements. ‘The territorial limits of the State of ‘Texas, too, as defined by her laws, before her admission into our Union, \ embrace all that portion of New Mexico lying declared by Congress with extraordinary | east of the Rio Grande, while Mexico still claims to hold this territory as a part of her dominions. Tho adjustment of this question of boundary is important, There is another consideration which ia- duced the belief that the Mexican government might even desire to place this provinee under the protection of the government of the United Numerous bands of fierce and warlike States. savages wander over it; and upon its borders, Mexico has been, and must continue to be, too feeble to restrain them from committing de- predations, robberies, and murders, not only upon the inhabitants of New Mexico itself, but upon those of the other northern States of Mex- co. It would be a blessing to al! these north. ern States to have their cilizens protected against them by the power of the United States. At.this moment, many Mexicans, principally fe- males andchildren, are incaptivily among them. . If New. Mexico were held and governed by the led States, we could effectually prevent these ‘from committing such outrages, and com- flexican people would be ‘pegentingce embraced ‘ s them, habited region. These were the leading considerations which induced me to authorize the terms of peace which were proposed to Mexico. ‘They were rejected ; and, negotiations being at an end, hostilities were renewed. An assault was made by our gallant army upon the st fortified places near the gates of city of Mext- co, and upon the city itself; and, after several days of severe conflict, the Mexican forces, vastly superior in number to our own, were driven from the city, and it was occupied by - our troops. Immediately afier information was received believing that his continued presence with the army could be productive of no good, I deter. mined to recall our Commissioner. A despatch to this effect was transinitted to bim on the 6th of October last. The Mexican Government will be informed of his recall; and that, ia the existing state of things, I shall not deem it pre. er to make any furtber overtures of peace, but shall be at all times ready to receive and com. sider amy proposals which may be made by Mesioagte Since the liberal proposition of the United States was authorized to be made in April last, large expenditures have heen incurred, and the precious : ‘citizens has been shed in the prosecution of the ‘war. blood of many of our patriotic fellow This consideration, and the obstinate perseverance of Mexico in protracting the war, must influence the terms of peace which a may be deemed proper hereafter to accept. Our arms baving been every where victori- ous, having subjected lo our military Occupation a large portion of the enemy’s country, includ- ing his capital, and negotiations for peace hav- ing tailed, the important questions arise, in what manner the war ought to be prosecuted, and what should be our future poliey. ( © € I cannot loubt that we should secure and render avail. »ble the conquests which we hare already made . and that, with this view, we should hold bi and occupy, by our naval and militery forces, all the ports, towns, cities, and provinces now in our occupation, or which may hereafter fall into our pussession ; that we should press for- ward our military operations, and levy such military contributions on the enemy as may, as fur as “practicable, defray the future expenses of the war.

The Sugar Crop.—The same writer says: “T think we shall receive full 250,000 hogs- heads of sugar against 120,000 last year. “The new sugar received thus far is as good in quali- ty as we received Jast year two months later, , and prices range from 34c. to 5}c., and will go lower. Molasses will be equally abundant and cheap. Prices now rule at 20 to 2lc., but I expect to see it down to 14c. in bbls., and 10 to Llc. on plantation before the season is over.” Genuine Bull.—It is said that when Miss.

Our citizens who inbaba that dis. tant region of country are still lefi without the. protection of our laws, or any regularly organ. ized government. Before the question of limita. and boundaries of the Territory of Oregon was settled, from the necessity of sheir condition, the inbabitants had established a tem- porary government of their own. Besides she want of legal authority for continuing such @ go- vernment, it is wholly inadequate to protect them in their rights of person and property, or to secure to them the enjoyment of the pri | of other citizens, to which they are entitled ume der the Constitution of the United States. They. should have the right of suffrage, be represented in a Territorial Legislature, and by a.delegate-” | in Congress; and possess all the rights. aad ‘ privileges which citizens of other portions of the. Territories of the United States have heretofore enjoyed, or may now enjoy. , Our judicial system, revenue laws, laws regs, ulating trade and intercourse with the Indian | tribes, and the protection of our laws genetally, — should be extended over them. In addition to the inhabitants ‘in that Tegri-. tory who had previously emigrated to it, 2 numbers of our citizens have followed them ring the present year, and it is not doubted that - during the next and subsequent years their’ numbers will be greatly increased. 1 sate Congress, at its last session, establish routes leading to Oregon, and between diff points within that Territory, and authorized th establishment of post offices at “Astoria and» such other places on thé coasts of the Pacific,» within the territory of the United States, as the, public interests may require.” Post offices, have accordingly been established, deputy post- masters sippointed, and provision made for the transportation of the mails. : The presefvation of peace with the Indian tribes residing Westof the Rocky mountaine ” will render it proper that authority shall be given by law for the appointment of an ade- quate number of Indian agents to reside among them.

The accompanying report of the Secretary of the Navy presents a salisiactory and gratity- ing account of the condition and operations of the naval service during the past year. Our) cemmerce has been pursued with increased ac. | tivity, and with salely and success, in every | quarter of the globe, undgr the protection of our | flag, which the navy bas caused to be respected | in the most distant seas. | In the Gulf of Mexico and in the Pacific the | officers and men of our squadrons have display- | ed distinguished gallantry and performed valua. | ble services. In the easly stages of the war | with Mexico her ports on both costs were block. | aded, and more recently tany of them have been captured and held by the navy. When | acting in co-operation with the land forces the | naval officers and men have performed yallant | and distinguished services on land as well as | on water, and deseive the high commendation | of the country. | While other maritime Powers are adding to | their navies large numbers of war steamers, it was a wise policy on our part to make similar additions to our navy, The four war steamers authorized by the act of the third of March, | 1847, are in course of construction, In addition to the four war steamers author- ized hy this act, the: Seccsts ry of thewvavy ©45, in pursuance of its provisions, entered into con- tracts for the construction of five steamers, fo | be employed in the transportation of the United | States mail “from New York to New Orleans, touching at Charleston, Savannah, and Havana, | and from Havana to Chagres ;” for three steam. | ers to be employed in like manner from Panama | to Oregon, “ sa as to connect with the mail from | Havana to Chagres across the isthmus ;” and | for five steamers to be employed in like man. | ner from N. York to Liverpool. ‘These steam- ers will be the property of the contractors, but are to be built “ under the superintendence and direction of a naval constructor in the, employ of the Navy Department, and to be so con- structed as to render them convertible at the least possib!c expense into war steamers ofthe | first class.s A prescribed number of the naval officers. | as well as a post office agent, are to be on board | of them; and authority is reserved to the Na. vy Department at all times to “ exercise con- trol over said steamships,” and “to have the | right” “to take them for the exclusive ugg service of the United States,” “ upapg@ffaking | ie compensation to the cop ‘ore there- r% po \ ! ~ SMeamships will be employed fa transporting the mails of the United States coastwise, and to foreign countries, upon an annual compensation to be paid to the owners, they will be always ready, upon an emergen- cy requiring it, to be converted into war steam. ers; and the right reserved to take thein for public use will add greatly to the efficiency and strength of this description of our naval force. To the steamers thus authorized under con- tracts made by the Secretary of the Navy, should be added five other steamers authorized under contracts made in pursuance of law hy the Postmaster General, making an addition, in the whole, of eighteen war steamers, subject ive that a number of |. nd in | | estimate the immense value bf your | upon the firet dawning of every attempt to alien- gother the various pagie | ened or endangered. ‘age. This measate was adupied wiih, the pal diets ot pritecting the British line of mail steamers now running between Boston and Liverpool, and, if permitted to continue, must speedily put an end to the transportation of all letters and ofher. matter by American steamers, and give to British sieamers & mo- nopoly of the business. A just and fair recip- rocity is all that we desire, and on this we must insist. By our Jaws, no such discrimina- tion is made against British steamers bringing letters into our ports, but all letters arriving in the United Siates are eubject to the same rate of postage, whether brought in British or American vessels. I refer you to the report of the Postmaster General for a full statement of the facts of the case, and of the steps taken by him to correct this inequality. He has ex- | erted all the power conferred upon him by the existing laws. | ‘The Minister of the United States at Lon- | don has brought the subject to the attention of ‘the British Government, and is now engaged in negotiations fur the purpose of adjusting re- ciprocal postal arrangements which shall be equally just to both countries. Should he fail in concluding such arrangements, and should Great Britain insist on enforcing the unequal and unjust measure she has adopted, it will be- come necessary to confer additional powers on the Postmoster General, in order to enable him to meet the emergency, and to put our own steainers on an equal footing with British steam. ers engaged in transporting the mail bet ween the twocountries ; and I recommend that such powers be conferred. In view of the existing state of the country, I trust it may not be inappropriate, in closing this communication, to call to mind the words of wis- d admonition of the first and most illus- trious of my predecessors, in his farewell ad- dress to his countrymen.

So deep and solemn was his conviction of the importance of the Union, and of preserving bar- mony betweep its different parts, that he de- clared to his countrymen in that address, “ it is of infininite moment that you should properly ational | union to your collective and individual happi- ness; that you sbould cherish 4 cordial, habi- tual, and immovable attachment to it; accus- toming yourselves to think and to speak of it as a paladium of your political gafety and pros. perity ; watebing for its preservation with jeal- ous anxiety; discountenancing whatever may suggest even & suspicion that it can in any event be ahandoned; andindignantly frowning ale any portion of our-country from the reetyor to enfeeble the saered ties whict ow link to. After the lapee”of hialf'a century these admo- | Sof Washington fall upon us with all the force of truth. It és difficult to estimate the “immense value” of out glorious Union of con. federated States, to which we are so much in- debted for our growth in population and wealth and fur all that constitutes us a great and a hap- py nation. Hsw unimportant are all ocr dif- ferences of opinion upon minor questions of public policy, compared with its preservation ; and how scrupulously should’ we avoid all agi- tating topics which may tend to distract and di- vide us into contending parties, separted by geographical lines, whereby it may be weak. | GREENSBORO’ FEMALE Cp aaE. The Rev. Solomon Lea has resigned his situation as President of thi institation, on account of the inconvenience of a res- idence at the College with an already ‘large and increasing family. The Board of Trustees have proceed- ed to fill the vacancy occasioned by. Mr. Lea’s resignation, by the election of the Rev. Albert M. Ship, of Lincoln county, anda member of the South Carolina Con- ference. The Board have also elected the Rev. James Jameison to one of the pro- fessorships, temporarily filled daring the past session by Mr. William C. Doub. So the Faculty of the College now stands as follows : Rev. Albert M. Shipp, President, and | Languages ; | Rev. Bennett T. Blake. Chaplain, and Professor of Mental and Moral Science ; Rev. James Jameison, Professor of An- cient Languages and Natural Science. A more satisfactory reorganization could not have been effected. With the accom. plished corps of Teachers in Music and Ornamental department, as well as inthe preparatory departments, the institution is amply prepared to perform all that the public expects. The new President is spoken of in high terms of commendation. Bishop Andrew. who knows him, publicly and warmly endorsed his qualifications for the station. Mr. Jameison has been long known to his church and to the public. and requires no man’s testimony for the pur- ose of inspiring general confidence. As to Mr. Blake, he is one of the identities of the college. The Conference, in its fostering care for the institution, adopted a well consid- ered resolution on the subject of dress a- mong the pupils, which, if carried out in a firm and proner spirit, cannot fail of a happy influence in regard to both the pu- ils and patrons of the school. The health of the pupils has ever been good; and there is nothing to make it otherwise, except some general visitation ‘of Providence which may afflict all the | ‘rest of the country. We heard Mr. Blake remark that.124 cents a-piece would pay the physician’s bill of every pupil during the past session. Only one or two had) been confined to their rooms at all or at} any time by sickness ;—a better state of | health than ought generally to be expec- | ted in so large an establishment. The resignation and departure re. Lea is a matter of sincere regret. He peecon deste iiinze lige only to the pu- pils-ander his charge, but to the commu- nity in which he sojourned, by bis amia- te deportment. Together with Mr. Blake he has endured the difficulties, yea, the privations, incident to the commencement of this great and responsible undertaking. His friends have to hope that the quiet- ness of the comparative retirement to which he returns, may render himself and his interesting family as happy as they deserve to be. Mr. Doub, who accepta- bly filled one of the departments during the past session, it will be seen proposes to teach a classical school here, and per- aps become a permanent citizen of the town.

There is much said also as to the proper time to hold the convention. The opposite party are disposed to follow the lead of the Whigs, and probably will be guided by an opposite action, whatev- er it may be. : “Should the Whigs make choice? of a eivilian, then the Domoerats will proba- bly fall upon a military man; and if the his should make choice of Gen.

We do not know, but we have little doubt, that | our unfortunate and much abused Raleigh -and Gaston Road gets all Ene SO iet le _broad, for these Jaikuive rer. “sAtne see evese When it is totally ig ime 10M censure in the premises. /seems, that the Postmaster General, in the plenitude of his wisdom, has taken the carriage of the Mail from the Rich- sends it down the Bay, vza Baltimore, to Petersburg. The consequence is, that the Petersburg Cars, instead of leaving at. their former usual hour, are now detained | until 10 or 11 o’clock at night, by which | they are prevented from delivering the Mail at Gaston before about day-light.— | Of course, our Cars cannot make the run | of 85 miles from Gaston, so as to reach | Raleigh by 24 o’clock. That, being the latest moment the Southern or Western Stages will wait for them, it necessarily | follows, that in four days out of six, (or! almost every day.) they leave without the Northern Mail. This state of things is so outrageous, that we have no idea it will be suffered to continue much longer. | Indeed, we see'that Mr. Botts has already ' moved in the business, in the House of | speedy restoration of the old order of .

Dr. Le Roy’s Pills on the contrary cleanse, purify, and strengthen at the same time ; and hence the results that they produce are cures, that may be called cures, distinguishes them from perhaps all other Porgative Me* dicines whose cures are olien as bad, and frequently worse than the disease. Speedy and powerful indeed is their effects on the human system.
