RoSKBTS-TUis village and its surround, hig country is perhaps much better known to as than most or our readers. ; The situation, is high. and by no means uniutrrctiting the surrounding country is one of the most romantic in the West era continent, and so pure and refreshing is tho air, so cool, sweet and bountiful is the water, that if immortality were to be found on erth we would expect it to dwell among these mountains. I am mori and more confirmed fat the opinion which you nave often heard me express, that nothing but a want of cleanliness, needless exposure or wilful intemperance can prevent the people of Western Carolina being as healthy, If not much more so, than any people on tho face of the earth. ' In tra velling over all tho country, and visiting blmosi every neighborhood,' I rarely meet With any of those diseases common to cold countries, and I have yet to be convinced that a' case of consump. tion ever did originate in that region of country, that is embraced in what was onoe familiarly called Mlio Siato of Buncombe." It Is I think to bo much regretted, that a court- try possessing such an inviting prospect and so many natural advantages aa this, should be so poorly Improved. Haywood county is decidedly one of the best paxing countries I have ever seen, and yet strange to toll, there is not in the county what deserves to be , called -a grazing or stock rarm. lino la a fcplt, however not oonOoe to M,lFf?-Bnfb ni Yancey participate in uie cuipauie negicci, tnougn pcrnaps not. to uie some extent. , Thnusands of dollars might anno, ally be brought into these counties from the sale of beef cattle,, banes and sheep, raised at a leas coot limn can be done in any country within two hundred miles round. . At present there is net the hundredth part of the stock that could or should bo kept here, '. What is, is mostly of an Inferior quality, and eight months of tb-c year lives entirely upon the wild grass of the mountains, the remain, ing four montha it is made to subsist npon corn shucks and straw, "-'--i - This is not, and never will be a corn raising Country. One acre well set in grass will bo worth bur or five in corn, and can be attended with half the labor. . For fifty years to Oome there will most probably be no necessity whateverof pastu. rins : stock Testae TbTone half of the'yeartho mountain range' is of such extent and abundance as to be considered almost inexhaustahle. A few acres of well attended meadow will winter a huge amount uf sUpk particularly if they are well she. tored from tho wet and cold, and with attention supply a great portion of the Southern market. You know that I disclaim any connection with partiziin polities, but I will just here eay without any regard to political parties, that if the people of Haywood and surrounding counties prosper as they should do, there must be lit talk mmd more tedrk. If money were brought into their country by wagon loads, jt would do them no good if they have nothjng to give in exchange, and they cannot expect to hare any thing to give without industry and economy. Leaving all this for the present, there is one thing among others, that speaks well for Haywood that is a genera disposition to read and become informed on "an., questions of general interest Thia is encouraging and we may soon expect to see a corresponding improvement fThO Measoni. get" wUl be wett sustained in this county, and do sincerely hope that we wul be able from time to time to fill its' columns with such matter at will be reduced to practical purposes, and tell loudly upon the religious, moral and social interests of the community for years yet to coma, . wnen 1 rcacn franklin I wul write you again. i Yours, dec ' D; R. M. A Novelty, IT It is well known to most of our readers, that the supporters of. Mr. Van Buren attributed their disasters in tlie elections of the present year, main ly to the unpopularity of the Army Bill, recom mended to the present Congress. Ritchie ascribes theft" defeat in Virginia chiefly to this ill advised maneuvre. In fact this ultra Federal measure seems to have aroused the indignation of the peo ple from one. end of the Union to tlie other, It was enough to awaken the most sluggish, and po litical destruction is starving the Administration in the face.. How were they to get out of the dif ficulty? The President, in his message, at tho beginning of the present session of Congress, had declared that "the present condition of the defen ces of our principal seaports, and Navy Yards, aa represented by the accompanying Report of tho Secretary of War, calls for the early and serious attention of . Congress; and as connecting itself in timately with this subject, I camxot recommend too strongly to your consideration the plan sub mitted by. that officer, for the organization of the Militia of tho United States." The Secretary in his Report, had given the outlines of the scheme, and in another paper had stated the details of "tlie plan" most minutely. , Here then seems to be a full committal in the most solemn manner, : How, we repeat, was even Mr. Van Buren, with all the political ingenuity, which 'baa been ascribed to him, to get out of the difficulty T It was a dcepc rate ease, and a novel expedient has been resort ed to.- In the but Standard we have ajong letter from Mr. Poinsett, in which he declares that Mr. Van Buren had no "previous knowledge of the details of the plan." What he means by the word jrt- tro, we cannot determine with any degree of certainty. . Wo are at a loss to know whether , be means that the President had no knowledge of tho plan befers'it was prepared by the Secretary, or whether be intends to say that it was unknown by, him, even when he recommends it thus strongly to Congress. The Standard, however, adopts the bitter interpretation, and assures its readers, that at tho time when Mr. Van Buren waa lauding this plan in the moet extravagant manner, he had no. ver seen it Tell it not m Gath ! . 1 no lYeetdent of these United States recommends, in the most emphatic manner to Congress, s. measure of which be has no knowledge whatever! Really this is retting-out of the difficulty most admirably. The people are to be told that the President, to whom they look for the most vigilant watchfulness over all their interests, is in the habit of recommending fortheadoptjoiiof Cuugnas, in tlio strongest term measures which he baa never condescended, to examine, and of course, could not pretend to have understood. He, it seems, merely endorses hi blank, and lets bio subordinates put Jin the sub. stance. v WiO any man in his senses believe this! Mr. Van Buren so grossly and culpably careless to neglect to examine the important matters , ... -; .. .. , 1 which he submits to Congress in bis annual messa res? Does he knd his name to every wild scheme of hi andcrlingsT This is tmpossiblo. Tho whole matter U an after thought; a lame expedi ent to extricate him from imnendinf dancer. . In England, we know the maxim is, the King can do no wrong. When he commits a blunder in tlie af fairs of Government, his ministers bear the blame. and their heads come to the block. Mr. Van Da ren wishes ns to adopt this courtly fashion now for the first time. He seeks to evade the responsibili ty of his own measures, and to throw all tho blame on his Secretary; and thus interpose a shield be tween himself and popular indignation. . .

Y.y Republican thus sums up Mr. Van Durcn'a Democracy: 0 ' L He voted in the Now York Convention, that the qualification of an elector should bo, that, ho had paid a money ta z, or performed military duty.

A Short Aegtjient 'Rcdu our nominal prices to the real standard- of pri ces throughout the world, and you cover tlie country with blessings and benefits." Mr. Jiuclmian t speech on the bub-Trea. wry. . ' This short extract embraces tho whole question. The argument is tliis : As all that man eats, drinks, and wears, enter in. to the price of labor it is necessary U re duce the value of products of tlicjsoil, thai the price 01 labor may be also reduced For if a mechanic recievc only twenty-fiv fifty, or seventy-five cents a day for his labor, hc would starve unless he could buy tho necessaries of life with bis. wages. It may be said, therefore that the value" of bread, meat, vegetables, coffee, tea, and sugar, which the manufacturer consumes enters into the price of every piece of cloth, or other product of the mauufactu rer and workshop, which we wear or use. Now, it is of some little consequence to the American people whether we encourage our own cultfval6rsof thesoil,- dr-those- of another country. If the American me. - . . a ra cnamc does not labor lor the same price that the-EureiicafthAftielabo then our manufactories and workshops are to be broken up , according! to .tho doctrine and policy of the Administration r and we shall be paying for thnproduce-fthe soil of other counrriFs", By being forced to buy and use products of their looms and work shops. To avoid this, say our rulers, the price of labor must come down ; so that we can enter into competition with bngland Germany and r ranee , and thus create a mar ket at home for the products of the soil, or we shall be forced to transport it to a for., eign market, and sell it at 1 foreign prices. This, then, fixes tlie Value of both labor and provisions of all kinds. We must bring them ' down, to the "tlandard pncei throughout the woKLD, or wc have no demand for our surplus produce or labor. This is the way our jniIcrsproposc to cov- er i ne country wim uiessincs : tnsicaa ' -.

Mr. Se vier said the author of the bill never intend, ed it to pass; and tharifit was sent bat to the House with an amendment, it would not meet with thirteen supporters. - Mr. Grundy said the matter was very well as it was, and though lie would not vote to in crease the pay, as this led us a pretty sure lesson, ho ccrtotnlywouldnnoi vottrto" rei duce their present pay or mileage. He found it little enough for him. Mr. Clay of Kentucky,- thought the ob ject of the House, in passing the bill, a praiseworthy one, and that it ought to go cenaimy a uesiraoie maiicr mat some equal and uniform system should be adopted. As it now stood, members even from the same neighborhood, charged their mileage by very different routes. , s The bill was referred to a select com mittee of five, to be appointed by the Vice President. .

W. K. ARMISTEAD, r 'Power of Religion. Ono of the most interesting anecdotes, illustrating the power of religion, was related a few days since, in a social meeting, by an English cler gyman, who was acriuaintcd with the fuels.

Hisdaughtcr was "tlie idol of bis heart Much had been expended for her education, and well did she. repay, In her intellectual endowments, -tlie solicitude of her parents. "She was lughly accompTilhod, ainiuble in her dispiwition, and winning in her man ners. They were all strangers to God. At lensrth.

To her the charms of Christianity, were overflowing. Slie fre. quented those places where she met with congenial minds, animated with similar hopes. She was often found in tlie house of God. " Tlie change was marked by her fond fa- I therewith painful solicitude. To secliis jovciy uauguier inns imuiiiuieu, was 10 mm aifoccasiHMf d!ep grief, and he resolved taijrwther erroneous notions on the sub ject of the real pleasures and business of life.

But she maintained lier integrity. He took tier on long journies, conducted in tha most engaging manner, in order to di vert hef .' Wind from religion; but she still delighted in theSavioinr. ' , After (ailing" in maW projfbts which he fondly anticipated would be ctfectual in sub. duing the, religious feelings of his daughter, he introduced her into company under such circumstances, that she must cither join in the recreation of the party, or give high of- fence. Hone lighted up in the countenance of her aflectionatc but misguided father, as lie saw his snare-about io- entangle thc-ob- jeet of his solicitude.
