Samuel Whitaker, esley Jones, (fpA new Post-Office has recently been established in this county, at "Sparta," E. Price, Post-master. Pr2s ide n t ia I Elect io n. Ye s te rd ay the Polls were opened in this State, for the purpose of electing Electors to vote for President and Vice-President of the United States. In this place the poll stood as follows: for the Jackson tick et 121, for Adams 5. Returns come in slowly from other States in Virginia the Jackson ticket is far a-head; the Enquirer gives the votes in several counties, making an aggregate of 16,G76 Totes for Jackson, and 7339 for Adams. " In Pennsylvania, if is supposed that the Jackson ticket will succeed by a majority of at least 50,000 votes. In New-York, so far as heard from, the Jackson ticket has prevailed in 13 districts, the Adams ticket in 7 both parties, however appear confident of ob taing a majority of her electoral votes. In Maine, the Jackson elector in the ; Cumberland district, succeeded by a ma jority of 173 votes. In Ohio, so far as heard from, the Jackson ticket has received 31,266 votes, Adams 27,375. In New-Jersey and the New-Enr-land States the Administration ticket lead with the ex- in Maine. It is now more than probable that Mr. Ad ams will only receive 50 votes in New England, 16 in New-York, S in New Jersey, 3 in Delaware, and 7 in .Mary land, making an aggregate of 84 votes out of the 261. It is conjectured, that Mr. Adams will not receive one vote south of (he Poto mac nor west of the mountains Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and Louisiana are si ill, however, claimed with apparent confidence by his friends, and possibly he mav obtain them; but even ail these are insufficient to elect him.

Frederick Nah. .esse A. Bynum. Sugar Cane. We have seen a specimen of the sugar cane rais ed in the neighborhoood of this town, (says the Newbern Specta tor,) which proves, we think be yond a doubt, that this valuable article may become one of the staple products of this State. The cane we saw green on the plantation of George Pollock,Eq. on Trent river it has fourteen joints, ten of which, it is supposed, will yield sugar; it is four feet long and five and a half inches in cir cumference. Our agricultural friends can examine it at the New born Bank. We are informed two rows of the rattoons planted in April last, twenty-five yards long and three feet apart, produ ced 147 stalks already cut, and that about 50 remain to be cut these were the products of 33 hills only, several not yielding any, owing, it is supposed, to the ytt! oo!i5 not being perfect. They were not at all alTected by the sharp frost on the 10th inst. and appear less sensible to the frost than the Cotton. The ground was highland, made rich by ma nure, and produces about 300 lbs. of cotton to the acre. This is a specimen of the ribbon cane. Vegetation.- Owing to the last i i i i remarkable mud winter and moist spring, vegetation has been un i i f . commoniv proline ine past sea- son, and fruits have come to ma tunty much earlier than usual consequently fruit trees have, and are now, exhibiting a second show of blossoms, in different parts of! the United States. In some in stances. they have borne a second crop. In Savannah, last week, well grown and perfectly ripe peaches and grapes, of the second growth, were ofiered for sale. In N. Hampshire second crops have also been produced, not too sanguine FOR JACKSON.

The State will convene at Ra leigh on Monday next in the preced ing columns will be found the names of the members. From the following arti cles it appears that a bus' and important session is anticipated: Washington, lov. 1. This ! week the Superior Court of Law and Equity, for the eounty of Beaufort, held its fall session in this town, the Hon. Judge Martin presiding. We understand that the law docket was unusually small, and the state docket, tho' larger than ordinary, was entirely for minor offences. This is J udgc Martin's first visit here; but the ability, energy, and pleasantness he has evinced, will ensure for him a large share of the confi deece and respect of the people of Beaufort. North-Carolina may justly be proud of the brilliant array of ta lent, unspotted integrity, and un surpassed amenity of manners. now upon the Bench of her Supe rior Courts. In the hands of her SuperiorCourt Judges, every thin dear to freemen may be safely confided. We wish we could say as much in favor of the existing Supreme Court of our State! That high tribunal seems, as far as we have heard or can judge, to have fallen, in the general conft dence and respect, to rise no more. Lawyers as well as the mass of the people say, that the Superior Court Judges give us sounder law, and err less fre quently, than the Judges of the Supreme Court do. So apparent has this become of late, that it is now the almost universal wish, that the ensuing session of the Le gislature may abolish the present Supreme Court, and restore the Court of Conference, and let the Superior Court Judges receive an enlarged and liberal compensa tion, for transacting the business of their present Courts, and for settling in a Court of Conference all disputed questions of law, ari sing upon their circuits. From the Fayettevillc Observer. The above paragraph we have copied from the Freeman's Echo, a respectable paper printed at Washington, in this State. With the remarks upon the Superior Court Bench, we heartilv concur; the public opinion is decidedly confirmatory of them. But we hope that the Editor is not cor rectly informed as to the feeling towards the present Supreme Court, and especially that no at tempt to abolish it may be suc cessfully made. It is true that we have heard some complaints of the Supreme Court, and it would seem to be hardly possible for an institution of the kind to give uni versal satisfaction, and to escape without complaints; but we have no idea, that a feeling of dissatis faction so general as to threaten the abolition of the Court, and a return to the old and much detest ed Judicial System can exist. The next will be an important session of the Legislature. Not only, if the "Echo" be correctly informed, will this matter come before it, but the Banks will have) to run the gauntlet; thTTlaintoad system will no doubt be discussed, and we hope acted upon, at least so far as to authorise an experi ment to be made at this place, from the town t the landing at Canipbellton. A United States Senator will be chosen, as Gover eor Branch's term will expire on the 3d of March next. And there will doubtless other matters of importance arise during the ses sion, which will commence on Monday the 17th inst. Petersburg, Nov. 7.- The mar- CD ' ket the accounts of an improve ment in the price of Wheat in England, brought by the James Cropper, have caused considera ble excitement in our market. Prime Wheat was selling freely yesterday at $1:50; we have ac cordingly quoted it at that price, though we have understood on or two loads sold at an advance of three cents. Cotton- our quota tions are fully maintained; about 300 bales arrive dailv, and tU-
