Though too modest to boast of our en terprising manufacturing companies, we must be permitted to express pur heart felt satisfaction at their prosperity If our friends abroad wish to know how much we are doing for the public good, we ad vise them to come among us, that they may see and judge for themselves. We will meet them at! all times with the hand of welcome extended, and promise them true southern hospitality. r The Cotton Factory at Cedar Falls is .the oldest in this country, and has been in successful operation for several years. About twelve months ago, the company deemed their prospects sufficiently flat tering to justify an enlargement of the scale of their operations. They have now just completed their improvements, in a style which is seldom equalled in this country. They have a splendid new brick building, covered with tin, which, in point of durability and taste, can be surpassed by few, if any, in the State. They have fifty-four looms in operation, one hundred and twenty operatives in their employ, and a capital of sixty thousand dollars. The buildings occupied by the operatives, numbering some 25 or 30, are all exceed ingly neat and comfortable, and xwned by the company. To give an idea of the virtue, morality and industry that prevail there, we have only to state that, instead of that refined place called a " grocery," they have decidedly the neatest and most comfortable church in the county, in which serviee is regularly performed, and on the tables of which may be found a good as sortment of Sunday School books. Lib erty, Union, Industry, Temperance," is their motto there, and faithfully do they act in the spirit thereof. AshbQru Herd. From the Hillsborough Recorder. Mr. Editor: It was my privilege to attend the Rail Road meeting at Provi dence, in Alamance county, on Thursday last, and I heartily wish every citizen of Qrange and Alamance could have been there. Our esteemed, eloquent and patri otic citizen ex-Governor Graham, was there. Mr. Caldwell; jhe Legislator of Guilford, who, seeing and knowing his duty to his state dared to do it, was there; and both did good service. In these de generate times,;when biost of our Politi cians are on the alert to see which way the popular current is setting, that they may smoothly and quietly glide along with it to places of profit and honor, the cardinal principle with them being their own advancement to high places in the : State : it is indeed refreshing to find here and there a noble spirit who has the inde pendence and patriotism to take the lead in important measures, and to devote their time and their talents In endeavoring to show to their fellow citizens their true in terest, and to persuade' and urge them to do their duty to themselves, to each other, and to their country. The facts and ar guments brought forward on that occa sion, and the plain and! candid manner in OCP The Election of Judges by The peo ple may sound well enough to some ears, it may look Democratic, too, but we be lieve that if the people will see through the lowhumbuggery which basso far dic tated the proposition, they will, first, re flect, as ihey should do, before they form a decided opinion. The Judiciary of this State and of South Carolina, elected as they are by their Legislatures, stand forth as examples to the world, of purity and un flinching devotion to law and right, and patriotism. Point to the gentlemen who have been elected to our Judicial bench, and we would ask, where is the man who can asperse their characters ? There are always, however, individuals, whose sole chances for notoriety are based upon inno vations of old established rules and cus toms men who would lake advantage MOORE COUNTY. f- ." 1 1 The Standard tells its readers that the ; " gallant Cald weir had gained largely; in Moore and Lincoln. This is ft piece of the Standard's wit, and it is in imita-'' tion doubtless, of that of a wag in Wash ington, who once said that Silas Wglrt ' . and Nathaniel P. Tallmadge drank more brandy and water than any two men in Congress. The story reached Tallmadg's cars, and he was highly indignant there at for he was a member of the Temper, ance Society, and he called on the &lan derer for an explanation. -I did say it, replied the wit, - but 1 meant that Wright drank all the brandy and you all the wa- ' ter." In this case all the gains have been in Lincoln and none in Moore. The vote stands, Deberry 535; Caldwell 537 ; and when it is recollected that Moore bas not elected a Whig member of the Legisla. ture since 1844, and that at the last Au gust election Reid beat Manly 12 votes in that county, is easy to determine who drank the brandy and who the water. The truth is, no other county in the Dis trict has stood to its tackle like Moore and a thousand cheers to the gallant WThigs of our native bailiwick for it, say we ! While others permitted themselves to be poisoned with prejudice and distracted with petty jeaousies, the good and true ' men of Moore marched up to the polls ,1 of late popular prejudices, to undermine in solid phalanx and deposited their bal- me guverrircieni iiseii, u it conmcieu wun lots oi trie candidate ot their party. their almighty dollar influence but such i Their conduct in this respect is worthy of are to be watched, and appreciated, only, j all praise, and we trust that their breath as their local knowledge should give them 1 ren throughout the District will honer weight.

CATAWBA FACTORY, One day last week we had the pleasure of going out and getting a good view of this fac tory, of its internal and external arrangements. The morning was very pleasant, and it was a treat, duly and highly appreciated by us to leave the dusty streets and pent up air of the town, and get amid green fields, this breeze of fanning forests the circuitous and irregular road, walled in occasionally by dense foliage which gave a refreshing coolness to the atmosphere and to catch the unembarrassed currents of air which swept through the branches and beneath the bowers nature has spread so lavishly abroad. The country is broken between town and the factory, but varied with hill and dale as it is, it is quite picturesque and interesting. The roads are tolerably good. We found the factory snug ly ensconced on the side of the noble Catawba in -a very pretty romantic little cove. The vil lage of cottages around, pleasantly located on the shady and verdant knolls, makes the place wear a cosy air of rural ease and comfort, quite delightful. which they were stated, could not tail to comp- from the People. The Judiciary is, convince every unprejudiced and inquir ing mind of the importance of engaging heart and hand in the greakworkof build ing the Central; Rail Road. 1 shall not attempt to give a sketch of the speeches, but shall content myself with urging eve ry man who feels an interest in the pros perity of the State, his own welfare and the welfare of his children, to wake up and inquire into the matter ; trusting that every one who candidly makes the inquiry will not fail to be convinced that his interest and duty leads the way, and that a strong impulse will induce all our citizens! to come un to the work like men like worthy sons of the old North State determined to succeed. . Mr. Editor, the Central Rail Road can be built, and must be built ; and that, too, by the sons of North Carolina. Let eve ry man lay hold according to his ability and it is done. Let us look into the mat ter. We are told that the counties of Or ange and Alamance must raise 8150,000, or the work will fail. I say they can do it ; and do it with ease, if they will. Or ange, including Alamance, has 1500 Sen ate Voters. We will take it for granted that one half of these have not the ability to subscribe any thing ; yet if the other half will make the effort it can be done. There are surely in the counties 3 who can subscribe 3,000 A POETICAL GENII'S. In a city well known to everybody (if they can find out the name,) a poeiical genius was hauled up before a magistrate for kissing a girl and kicking up a dust, and the following dialogue ensued : Magistrate Is your name John Jay ? Prisoner Yes, your honor, so the peo ple say. Magistrate Wm it you, that kissed the girl and raised the alarm ? Prisoner Yeayour honor, but I thought it was no harm. Magistrate You rascal ! did you come here to make rhymes f Prisoner No, your honor, but it will happen so sometimes. Magistrate Be otr, you scamp ; get out of my sight. Prisoner Thank'e, your honor, then I'll bid you good night. iY. Y. Union. THE PRESIDENT AT PITTSBURG. The President of ihe United States arrived at Pittsburg on Saturday afternoon. It is need, less to say that he was greeted with a brilliant and enthusiastic reception. The, address of welcome, ou behalf ot the People of Alleghany county, was pronounced by the Hon.

The Procession was headed by tho Military, and its ranks well filled by civil so cieties of every denomination, while many thousands of people occupied the bouses, and filled the streets, who, in ever? appropriate way, manifested their warm regard for their t war-worn visiter.

THE ALLEGED ABDUCTION CASE. We 1 cam from New Orleans that the Exam. I iuing Court has given a decision in the case of i the alleged abduction of Juan Francisco Rey, alias uarcta, by which Don Carlos de Espana, the Spanish Consul for the port of New Or- , leans, is held to bail in the sum of $2,500 to answer the offence charged against hinrbefor the United States District Court in December next. Four other persons who are accused as accessories to the abduction viz. James B. McConnell, captain of the scbooaer Uary Ellen, and Messrs. Fulgencio Llorente, William Ea gle, and Henry Marie are alto held to bail for their appearance at the same court in the sum 82,500 each, Such is the information we gather from a Telegraphic despatch to the Charleston Courier dated at New Orleans on the I5lh instant. A lady answers the question aa to "how the trees get their clothes out of their trunks with out opening them ?" by saying that " trees leaoc out their-summer dreca !" It gives us pleasure to learn that (be Hon. Robert P. Leicher (late Governor' of the Stat of Kentucky) is expected in this city in the course of the week. It is rumored that he has been ofiered, and will accept, a foreign mission. As an' honorable distinction by bis own Go vernment, few men could be deemed more wor thy to receive it. COME Mr. Clay.
