Smith for r(>n*rrcs.>j, wa.s attended by iiearlv three hundred delegates; every county In flie district was represontoil. Mr. 8mith appeared ill flu* Convoiition and accepted tlie nomination. There are evidently very stroni; hopes entt'rtained hv the Whiir"* «>1’ the district that they will suo- ,.eeil i» eloetinir their candidate. Tiios. S. Asuk, Ksq., declines the nomination t;,r t’lintrress in tla> Salisbury District. So wo It'arii Ironi the Charlotte Democrat; but have not „,on or heard anything directly IVom himself. Kroni the Salem District, we learn from a jrentlenian recently in that part of the State, that tlu' ireneral opinion is that Oen. Leach will beat Mr. Seales. To the same effect is the followinir passaire from a letter of the Reporter ol’ the Xew- born I’roirress, who is on a visit to Iredell countv: •‘From the best information we can gather we are led to believe that Tjeach is rather an over- niateh for Mr. Scalcs; so much so that, as we are oTi'ilihly informed, some of the more intelligent dotuoerats concede the fact, and the whigs are in ,,'taeies. so sure are they of a victory in August next. The above seems to be the prevailing opinion, not only in this, but in every county where they have spoken; at all eventii it will be a vt'rv warm and animated contest, lion. Mr. Scales has a very heavy load to carry in defend- in^' the administration of l*res'dent Huchanan, and Loach sticks to him so tight and jtlies the whip forcibly that the srnfa; are wont to fly.” Siiieo the al>ove was in type the (^h.nrlotte Whisjr ‘f the olst has arrived, with the following contradietion: .1/' . .1'7(.—AVe had the jdi-asure of seeinix this i;( ntlenuin last week, and althouL'h he had deter mined not to acc»‘pt tTle nomination tendered to him by the Whig (Convention, yet. after *onsul- tation with friends at Concord he has consenti'd t. leave the matter oj>en until his return trom the .V'Ttli. where he will be gone some ten days, when he will determine ns tn his future course. Our own opinion is. that Mr. Ashe will, at tlu> ur-eiit re«(uest of friends at home and abroad, ae- it'pt the inMuination. We shall ket“]> his name at oiir niiLst head, until we hear his determination. H'vNk of North (''aroi.ina.—The subscrip tion at this place amounts to ? 150.OHO, divided a- luong ''I* persons, in sums ranging from )5200 to Sl*u,(K»0. The subscription speaks well for the financial condition of our people. When books were opened here some twenty-five years ago for stock in the present Bank of the State, a very trifling sum, S1G,I00 we believe, was subscribed, though then we had at this place very little Hank stock. Since that time the two local Banks— Fayetteville and (’larendon—have been chartered and put into successful operation. It is probable that the whole amount of stock / 82,.'»0H,OO0') has been subscribed. So far :is we have seen the subscription is as follows: Stateof North Carolina, ( Literarv' Fund) $.'>00,000 ^ IROINIA.

A gentleman who was present informs us that , 1 i 1 • -ni. . reception of President Buchanan, and Hon. ey s low two things: First, that it is next ■ Jacob Thompson, Secretary of the Interior, at to an impossibility to defeat the democrats in Weldon, on yesterday, was of the most flattering \ irginia; and second, that the Democrats them-' and enthusia.stic character. selves by their own imprudent course and per- i A large number of persons from the surround- sonal divisions, have come about as near doing I ing country, who had come in to see the Chief that next to impossible thing as any friend of the j Magistrate, added to the resident citizens, who Hfod deal \ Jiad turiuxl out rn made up a very larjiO ‘*\Vc liave watched the canvass in Virginia ! crowd, tor so small a place, since the nomitiation of Mr. Letcher by the De- j A special tniin, which loft Baleiiih Monday af- mocratie Convention. We had watched the pre- | ternoon, arrived during the niirh't. This train hminary canva.ss antecedent to the assembling of contained the Ommitteo of the ^Trustees of the that Convention, and we can say with all sinceri ty, that Mr. Letcher wa.s attacked with a.s much, ii not more, bitterness by the opponents of his nomination in his ow^n partj', as he has been since by the opponents of his election belonging to t'le other party. The written word remains, and its influence remains. It is, therefore, inexcusable for any partizan to allow his personal predilec tions to carry him so far before a nomination, as to render his support of a probable nominee un gracious, and his advocacy ineflFectual. The Op position had an armory provided and ready for use. They had onl}^ to turn to the columns of the Itichniond Enquirer and other anti-l^etcher papers.” It was not on fursonnl grounds that Mr. Letv^i- er was assailed by many presses anil individuals of his own party. On the contrary, it w’as on the broad ground of his avowed unfaithfulness, with in a very few years, to the vital interest.s of the South. This was manifest from the record, and it is still more manifest from the refusal of thou sands of democrats to vote for him, even after the presses and the leaders of the party who had de nounced him surrendered and urged his election. It is no trifling cause that will prevail with a de mocrat, and espt'cially a A'irginia democrat, to abandon his party candidate. Probably no niert'- ly jiersoiial objection ever thus operated to the extent id’ lOO votes. Kvery body knows how lit tle the jiarty halts at men, however bad their jn r- s"nif character. Mr. Letcher had himself }>ro- vided the O{>position with its “armorv" bv his notorious llufl^ner letter, endorsing Ikuflher's pam phlet, about which we have .said liffle or nothing, because we think it improper to publish such thing'.. uiiles> .'ilisolutelv neeessarv. lint the |M‘itit to which we wouhl call our read ers’ attention is, the doctrine of the Journal that democrats ought not to object to democrats as candidates, for ini>/ ruiist,—for surely if ever there was a rea.son which could justify a South ern man in refusing to .support a man. that rea son existed in the ca.se of Mr. Letehi'r. It was the duty of evt>ry Southern man to op^nise him, before and after his nomination. .\nd the demo cratic partv would itself have been stronirer at this nioinent if they had persistt'l, and succeede«l in defeating his nomination. The .Journal adds to the above remarks, a e.-iu- tion to democrats in North (’arolina amiinst such objections. We trust that a likt> cau.se will never exist; but if it should, we are iliistaken if the vo ters of North Carolina, of any party, would sus tain such a candidate. The doctrine of the .lournal seems to us to be utterly deficient in patriotism, to say nothing of one of the cardinal virtues.

Ellis, (lovernor of the State, Ex-(Jovernor Bragg, the Salisbury Brass Band, and several invited guests. 'I'lie Wilmington Light Infantry, a large and spirited volunteer company, aecomjianied by the Fayetteville Cornet Band, and a goodly number of the citizens of Wilmington, ami many of the fair daughters of ('arolina from various parts of the State, en route for Chapel Hill, were also pre sent. 'I'he arrival of the train from Portsnimith, with the distinguished visiters, was anticipated with impatience, but time passed oft'plea.santly. About L) minutes to eleven the whistle was heard in the distance, and ]»reparations were made for its reception. 1'he military companies were drawn up in line fronting Happer’s Hotel, on cither side of the track, and the train came uj) with tlu' national co lors flying from the engine and the coaches. The President was welcomeil by (iov. Ellis, in a short speech, to which he res|>ond(‘d in very touching and eloi|U(>nt terms for fiiteen minutes. He closed by saying that he was getting tired of the cares and troubles of office; that he hal now reached a period in lile, whieh n ndercd the re pose and comforts of home desiralde. and that at the end of his present futir years’ service, he should repair to the shades of W hi'atland, and there prepare for that summons which sooner or l.tter awaits every ineiiiber of the human family. He was loudly eliocrod at the close of his remarks. Ex-(!ov. iirairg then canu' forwanl, and in a brief but remarkably appositeand felicitous speech, Welcomed to .North ('arolina soil, the Hon. .Jacob Thomjison, Secretary ol the Interior, .^h^ Thoni]>- .son responded in happy terms, when the party re- tiri‘d, amid the .shouts of the crowd and the per formance ol national airs from the bands present. After ridding theniscives of the dust, and adjust ing their neck ties, a large Jiarty partook of re- freslim.cnts. com]>h‘tely tilling the spacious dining saloon of the Wchloii Hotid. A little after 12 o’clock, the train moved oil for Raleigh, where it was ('X])ected to arrive yes terday afterniHin at ti. The train stopjied at Frank- linton from 1 until 5 P.

But these periodical re lations between special jiursuits and the public extend further and reach higher. Agriculture has at least two, and Insanity has one (Quarterly Review; and the Stereoscope and the Banking- house, Mesmerism, Chemistry, the rnited Ser vices, Antiquities, (lenealogy, A:c., have their monthly magazines. Then there are nearly a score of what may be called local or parish jiajiers, published weekly in the nietrojiolis, and circulat ing in numbers varying from 2,0(m> to 10,000, and containing from 'JUO to fiOO advertist'ments. The / II iri If Xf'irs, standimr at the head of the half penny papers, is the largest and nio,t ambitious of the whole collection of district or parochial journals; it is very nearly equal in size to a double Times; it contains original tem]>erate, jiractical, and able leading articles; its adverti.se- ments amount to nearly l,0(»(t in a single num ber, and it professes to command a sale of 17,000. The number of these district papers is at present IS, of which the price of one is I 'd. each copy, that of nine is Id. each, and the remaining eight only Ad. each number. These pajiers are the ex ponents and overseers of the parish system, and ofl’er, by the publicity which they give to all in cidents occurring within the bounds of their cir culation, the best po.ssible popular jiroteetion against abuses and shortcomings.

The Newbern Progress takes ofTence unnoces- sarily, at some rem.arks of t>urs on tlic Lad spell ing, and bad grammar, and personalities, and ex travagant laudation, which are allowed to get into the papers, especially from irresponsible corres pondents, who, having little capacity for writing, write inaccurately, and, having little news to tell, write of private and personal matters which have no business in print. The Progress advi.ses us to “attend to our own business.” We think we do that, very a.ssiduously; and one part of our busi ness is to discountenance munler, a.s well of the (Queen’s English as of private feelings. But is the Proirress itself \ythout sin in such matters? Has it forgotten how it complained of th-? Ob.ser- ver for “boring” its readers with the Railroad controversy? Was that the business of the Pro gress? If so, why is it not our business to com plain of the Progress for allowing the public taste to be vitiated by its publication of Paul Pry notices of private mattci's, by bad spelling, bad grammar, I'ic ? Would it not be better for the Progre.s.s to take our complaints in gfx»d part, and endeavor to reform the style of its correspondents? The truth is that the whole tribe of village puffers has be come nauseating. We have no unkind feeling to the Progress, !ind no rea.son for any; and are not conscious of having given it occasion for any towards us. And we really think that if the Editor of the Progress will take the trouble to rtv/f/ the extract from his correspondent’s letter which we made (without tiaming the paper) his wrath will give place to amu.sement. The M.\c.\ni,i.\ (Ir.xmmfi.oha.—This magni ficent flower is now blooming here—we have one before us as we write that measures more than D inches across, from the e.xtrcmitie.s d’ the |»etals as they are spniad gr:icefully open—its pure white petals contrasting admirably with the deep glossy green of the leaves. Its cultivation has become [uite common. N»t many ye;irs since it wasstip- p*»sel that it would not flourish so far from salt water; but the successful ex[»eriments id' the late l»r. llobinson, whose taste for flowers and shrub bery led him to collect many rare plants and trees, induceil otlitTs to follow his example, tintil now th. •re are few flow.-r ganlens with.iut one or more .^lagnolia trees. 'i'iie taste for flowers is one of the m.ist human izing (d‘ tastes, and ;;rows by what it feeds on. it is to be regretted that since the death d‘ Col. Lutterhdi there has been no establishment here where one can get a supjdy of plants. From him, mainly, the beautiful grounds of some ot our pri vate residences were supjdiel. Some of these have forty, fifty and sixty varieties, each, ot roses, besides a great variety of other flowers and shrub- hery. _ Cotton Receipts.—8,r>7;{,.')08 bales, against 2,Sll5,730 bales hist year. increase 077,778 bales—to which may be added about 25,000 bales increased receipts at the prominent interior mar ket towns.
