The fourlh number of n periodical called the Atttl Sfarvrt lie porter, published in New York hy John Cm. Whittinr, n doubt under the auspices of Tappaii & Co. was Iruidutl to us a few days ajjo by a gentleman to whom it was addressed, with a request that we would publicly express his disapproba tion of the introduction of such writings into n society where their effects cannot be other than injurious. This we do with pleasure; and we will add what may tend to dampen the unholy ardor of those blood-thirsty hypocrites, that their pam phlets will meet with a similar reception from every sensible and influential per son in the South. Spec. Sleepy Jurors. During a trial before our Superior Court last week, two of the Jurors yielded to the allurements of Mor pheus and fell fast asjeep. Their happy insensibility to passing events was noi observed till the other ten had retired from the box, when they were recalled to their senses, or perhaps more properly, were compelled to open their eyes, and follow. On their return, the Judce r linked them in such terms as ought to banish sleep for a twelvemonth, and fined each of them ten dollars. ib. The patent work basktt again. A worthy neighbor called on us last week and gave us some additional information concerning "the affair of the foot-stove." It turns out that the honest vender was not a yankee, as we had been led to be lieve, but a genuine Caroliuian, and what is worse still, of our own county! While we thus make the amende honorable to the "yankee" whom we unwittingly tra duced, we congratulate those whom it concerns that our State is not entirely destitute of talent for honorable enicr prize. ib. pursuit of the same man, before it was known that he had been arrested. Fayetttvillt Obs. Serious Accident. On Wednesday as a gentleman by the nam' of Booth, a merchant from Edenton, N.C. was in the act of jiiiriping from if,,. ,Jf,r ()n le ra road near Newcastle, (Del.) he fell into the track on which they were running the baggage ear one of the persons em ployed in removing the baggage, attemp ted lo draw him out but unfortunately not in time. The first wheel passed over both his legs near the body, the second a little lower down, and the third over one leg below the knee. He was not expec ted to live when the steamboat left New castle. The Philadelphia Commercial Herald of Friday last, states that Mr. Booth had submitted to the amputation of one of his legs; that he was then at the City Hotel, doing well. Norfolk Beacon, Indian Treaty. We learn from the Globe of Monday: "That a treaty has been negotiated with the Indians west of J ike Michigan, for the cession of all their lands between that Lake and the Missis sippi, and of their reservations in the pe ninsula of Michigan. The Commission ers, Gov. Porter, Col. Owen, and Col. Woatherford, have procured the relin quishment of the Indian title to this valu able region upon favorable terms, and deserve much credit for the successful result of the negotiation. This cession extinguishes the whole Indian title to land north of the Ohio, and east of the Mississippi, with the exception of the Miami reservation on the Wabash, and the district north of Grand River, in Michigan." Distressing. Mr. Richard N. Jacocks of this county was drowned in Cashie riv er on Thursday the 1 7th instant. We understand that on that day he started down the river in a small canoe, with the intention of going to his sister's, a few miles distant. On the Saturday after, the canoe was discovered, having in it his coat and hat, which had no doubt been taken off to avoid too great heat in pad dling. Suspicion immediately arose that he had accidentally fallen overboard and wa-j drowned, and instant search for his body was commenced, which was found on Monday morning last. Mr. Jacocks was a temperate, moral, unassuming, and highly respected gentleman, in the prime of life, and there are many who sincerely sympathise with his aged mother and other relatives in their unfortunate be reavement. Windsor Herald. ft? David Owens was tried and convic ted at the Superior Court for Davidson county, for an assault with an intent to commit a rape on his own daughter. We have witnessed many degrading and de basing things in human nature; but such loathed and damniug sins as this, lives far below any thing wo were ever able lo imagine! We understand, however, that there is a case in this county, where a man if God will pardon us for degra ding the workmanship of his hands by calling him a man who is raising up a family of children by his own daughter! Why the officers of the law have so long overlooked him or whv the wrath of heaven yet sleeps, is a mystery to us! We shull recur to this subject again. We wish lo collect more proof, before we hand the name of the debased creature to the world. Greensboro' Patriot.
