FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1828. Presidential. We have received a pamphlet copy of the "Address of the Central Jackson Committee to the Free men of North-Carolina." We regret that our limits will not permit the inser tion entire of this interesting publica tion, in which the Central Committee have addressed the people '-with that plainness of speech in which facts and arguments are more easily apprehended by those plain men who constitute the large majority of our fellow-citizens." We will endeavor soon to give some ex tracts from this pamphlet in the mean time those who feel a desire to peruse it, can do so by applying at this office. Newborn, Sept. 20. Cotton new crop. On Tues-i day last, ten bales of Cotton of j the new crop, were brought to j this market from the plantation of Gen. Durant Hatch of this coun ty, which were sold at 9 cents. Since that time, several small parcels have been brought in and sold at the above price. Judging from what we have seen of the article, it appears to be of supe rior quality; and should the sea son prove favorable, we have the prospect of an abundant pro duct. Spectator. of the State Bank, and the wid owed father of two helpless chil dren, committed an act of suicide, on Monday 15th inst. by shooting himself through the head, just above the ear, with a loaded pis tol, and expired between two and three in the afternoon. We learn that for several days previous to the shocking act committed, he had given strong evidence of men tal aberration. He left a letter in which he stated that all his affairs with the Bank were perfectly straight and from our knowledge of the man, says theEdenton Ga zette, We have no doubt of its being the fact. Freeman's Echo. Faycttctillc, Sept. 18. New Cotton. We learn that 12 bales of new Cotton have been! brought to this market within a few days past, and sold readily at 9i to 10 cents. The quality is very good. Observer. Cotton. The new crop of Cot ton is arriving in greater quantity than it ever did, as early in the season. As many as five loads were taken in one day this week at one warehouse. It readily commands 10 cents. We believe it is a common opinion among our merchants, that, owing to the de ficiency of last year's crop, and the improbability of an exuberant one this year, that the planter will receive a better price for his Cot ton than he has done for one or two years r&sl... Augusta Geo. Co. English Markets. letter da ted Liverpool, Aug. 1, 1328, says: "Our Cotton market remains in the same inanimate state, and a decline of l-3d per lb. has taken place, which can only be account ed for by the eagerness on the part of the holders to effect sales." The New-York Journal of Com merce says, "Tho funds are high and lands arc low, (in England;) the latter it is thought too much so in proportion. The French fnnd.s are not so high as the Brit ish by 15 per cent, and yet the debt of the latter nation is as a nver to a rivulet compared with the hrench national debt. Mo ney can be borrowed in London, on hrst-rate security, at two per '.ent. a,uI pays three and a half per cent." n cWc Samuel II. Pullen, -wincr of the Edenton Branch Wine and Silk. There is per haps no country in the world where the Vine grows more luxu riantly and abundantly than in N. Carolina and mulberry trees of the largest and finest growth are to be found every where in our State. It is a matter of as tonishment that all our farmers do not make wine, at least, if not silk. A farmer in South-Carolina last year, from four acres of land sold wine to the amount of $2,400. A few of our farmers have small vineyards, but we would like to see it become generalfor if cheap wine could be substituted for the miserable whiskey that is now doing so much injury in our country, it would have a most hap py eflect. Not only would its ex tensive culture give a greater scope to agricultural industry, but it would a greater revenue to plan ters by far than our present crops. Ono of our most respectable far mers in the vicinity of Newborn last year, succeeded perfectly well in raising silk worms, and has on his estate a grove of 300 mulber ry trees. rNcwbern Sent. The Banks. The excitement about the Banks, which was first raised by Robert Potter in Gran ville, has not spread so far and fiercely as he doubtless contem plated. In comparatively but few counties has the excitement been made a handle of, for electioneer ing purposes, &e. Of all that has been said and done about the mismanagement of the Banks, we have hitherto seen j no specific plan proposed for re medying what is confessed on all hands to be a vexatious evil in the land. In politics as in medicine, every despicable empiric can tell when the body is ailing, and they are never backward in recommen ding this, that, and the other thing as infallible specifics; but the great object is to cure the disease, which none of them can do. Now in re gasd to the "Bank fever," with which it is said our body-politic is afllicted, wo fear those who are most officious in prescribing rem edies, are not the most likely to cure the complaint. They dis course flippantly, and, as many of our honest but deceived citizens believe, learnedly about the cause and nature of the evils under which the community are suffer ing from the bad conduct of the Bank managers; and thus hood wink the unsuspecting people in to an employment of them, (as members of the Legislature,) un der an erroneous opinion that they can and will set every thing right, and bring about better; times! The plain truth is, that the people of North-Carolina have suffered most grievously from quackery; they have been doc tored to death, by hundreds, by villanous empirics in medicine; and political degradation and bankruptcy have , been brought upon them, by no less villanous pretenders in politics.
