Washikgtoh, Nov. 12. The correspondent of
the Baltimore Bun says :
No retirement or repose was allowed the Presi
ident yesterdny : the number who called, both offi
cials and others, was unusually large, embracing
many females seeking to secure Executive pardon
for officials. Not being able to give separate au
diences, the doors were opened at one and a half
o'clock for all to enter. General Sickles, Kilpat
rick, Senator Wilson, and General Longstreet were
granted audiences with the President. The num
ber of pardons now reaching the department is very
large, and the more pressing engagements of the
President consequent upon the early meeting of
Congress has compelled him to let them remain in
abeyance for the time being, except in some in
stances. The lobby representatives, generally known as
the,outside Congress, are already entering here,
preparatory to entering upon a vigorous campaign
at the ensuing session.. An unusual wide field for
operations offers, and log-rolling combinations are
hf?ne formed in DroDortion.

S The course of some Southern States inr refusing to
adopt the President's policy in regard to the rebel
debt and the Constitutional ameadment, has greaiiy
embarrassed him and impaired his influence in rela

depends on the South itself.

VOL. VI, RALEIGH, WEDNESDAY, NOV. 15, 1865 NO. 311.
State Items.
Tbe Charlotte Democrat says :
"Considering that probably no section of the State
wai more strongly opposed to Gov. Holden her etc
fort than this section, we think his present vote in
Mecklenburg and surrounding counties a good one.
Last year Mecklenburg gave Holden only 112 votes
and Vance 1690 now Holden gets 353 and Worth
634. L8t year Holden did not carry a county in
this section now he carries Cabarrus, Gaston and
(it is reported) Uoion, and loses Liecoln by only 14
votes.
We have no reliable news as to the vot for
Governor In Union only rumor.
It would appear that the negroes In Charlotte are
greatly in want of woTk. A load of wood was thrown
out in front of the Democrat office the other day,
and in the course of a few houra there were ten ap
plications from able-bodied freedmen to cut it up.
These negroes have left good home3 in the country
where they had plenty to eat, and are lying about town
in idleness, only occasionally getting a little jib. of
work. The farmers need laborers many have had
to discontinue farming for the want of labor while
hundreds and thousands of able-bodied negro men
are lounging about the towos and cities. The Le
gislature must take some action which will compel
negroes, who do not properly belong to town and
have no homes in it, to leave and go to the couutry
for work.
We mentioned last week the fact of a citizea of
Rowan county having been found hanging to a tree
near Salisbury. The facts of the case are that on
Monday morning Mr. Thos. Hyde proceeded to his
barn apparently in geod health and spirits. Oq ar
riving there he took a log chain, fastened it to a beam,
tied the other end around bis neck and leaped from
the window cf the barn. He had a fall ot seven
feet, and when discovered he was dead. The rea
son of this suicide seems to be clearly traced to re
ligious exeitement.
We are pained to learn from the Wilmington pa
pers of the occurrence ot a most distressing accident,
which occurred at Argyle, Robeson county, a day or
two ago, by which a little girl, named Lizzie McRae,
youngest child of A. McRae, Jr., Esq., of this place,
got burned to death.
We know no more of Ihe particulars than that a
little negro girl was burning some straw in the yard.
and that little Lizzie's clothes caught fire, occasion
ing her death, or such injuries as caused her death
before assistance could be rendered.
Jasper Packard, 128th Indiana Vol., has been as
signed to, and taken command of the District cf Wes

A letter in the WilmiQgton Dispatch, dated Fayett-
eville, speaks of the late sess3ioa of the Presbyte
rian Synod in that town as follows :
"Tbe Synod of the Presbyterian church ia North
Carolina convened in this place on last Wednesday
evening. Owing to the unsettled state of affairs there
was-not as large an attendance as usual, but most of
the prominent and distinguished ministers of this de
nomination were present. The opening sermon was
preached by the Rev. Joseph M. Atkinson of Raleigh,
who fully sustained his high reputation as a pulpit
orator.
Rev. Colin Shaw was chesen Moderator. On Fri
day and Saturday a spirited and impotrtant discuss-
ion took nlace noon the snbiect of the state of church,
Incidentally the religious condition of the freedmen
urns rnraUtArpri nn roanlntinrta annnfod rtnnrinn iin.
. . 7 , . . T --vr..wv. . t " .
lotermitten laoor on tne part ot tne church in their
h(mir. Thf r rpl w nua cond t on was renor! not
satisfactory at present, but hopes were expressed that
upon the subsidence of the excitement consequent
upon the great change in their positiou and the con
. --r-
tinued efforts of Christians in tbeir behalf much good
wool 1 be f fleeted.
The subject of re-union with tbe Northern branch
of tbe church was largely discussed and with great
ability by all the leading members of the Synod. It
was finally determined to make no overtures in the
matter, and as the Northern church had rendered
reunion impossible by declaring the Southern church
out of fellowship until it acknowledged the sin of
slavery, to await the rescisioo of this action on tbeir
part. The discussion was conducted with great
kindness and io a Christian spirit, but there cou d
bo no question of the opinion of the Synod on ths
point of reunion, the division hating taken place
primarily upon the acticn of the Northern church
upon tbe sin of slavery. The question under discus
sion was whether it was proper for the Southern
church to make advances in favor of reunion. No
action being taken the matter remains ia statu qaot
awaiting the action of the General Assembly of tho
Presbyterian Church of tn.9 South."

vote

THE CITY,
&Fersona in city and country are requested, at all
times, to furnish us verbal or written information of any
eventsof public interest which may transpire ia their
neighborhoods, or of which they may hare knowledge.
Bhownley, Bckton & Co., of Petersburg, who
are conduating a wholesale grocery and commis
sion business, appear in our columns this morning
? Dv advertisement. It is an old firm and no doubt
t those who transact business with them will find
their supplies to be of the first quality.
We may say to our cotemporaries of the Express
and Index that the commercial men of the "Cock
ade" are held in high estimate in this section. Our
State has heretofore transacted an immense amount
of business in Petersburg, but most of, the old es
tablished houses appear to have been wiped out
during the war or so maimed as not to be known in
the field of present enterprise. Scott, Harrison &
Co., princely gentlemen as well as merchants, Da
vis fc Co., Mcllwaine, Paul, Donnans Johnston,
Pannill, Kull & Sons, and a host of others, once in
the front rank and holding extensive connections
here, do not appear to have been reconstructed. If
the old and reliables are gone the way of all flesh,
we fear it will be long before Petersburg will see
their like again.
At the Depot of the North Carolina railroad the
bustle and stir observable a month since have been
greatly lessened. During the military reign there,
activity could be seen at every turn of the eye, but
now things present a more subdued aspect. There
are, however, still sights of vitality. The building
formerly used as an engine house has been appro
priated by the company for use as offices and de
pot, and answers those purposes very well. Im
provements are going forward also in the matter of
platforms and the like. Cotton, rosin and other
products are daily coming down on the trains, and
we are glad to see such evidences of the good time
which is to come. The truth is, a wise public pol
icy is all we want in order to rebuild private inter
ests. Without it we can accomplish DOthing with
it, only a few years will be requisite to give us un
exampled prosperity.
Sons of Temperance. We transfer to our col
umns for the benefit of all whom it may concern,
the following:
Lincolhton, Nov. 1, 1865.
Ihe Grand Division of North Carolina Sons of
Temperance, will meet at Jacob's Fork Division,
Uatawba county, on the 6th of December next, at
1 o'clock, d. m. All P. W. P.'s in irood standing
wueiuer iLeir envisions are in operation or nor, are
earnestly requested to attend.
R. N. Davis, G. Scribe.
This excellent order is said to be in a very dilap
idated condition, the membership of the grand as
well as subordinate formations having been much
weakened by the work ot the past four years. We
understand Raleigh will be worthily represented

Business Notice. Having to pay cash for every
thing in the management of our business, wo must
do a cash business or none at all. Many of our city
subscribers are in arrears and we have sent our bills
until we are tired of it. We now give fair notice
that the paper will be stopped in all cases where
the subscription is not paid when presented. Per
sons at a distance, if of the class mentioned, must
remit money to pay the subscription or their paper
will be discontinued.
All persons indebted to the Progress office or the
proprietor, by note or open account, are requested
to settle the same at once.
The Streets. Through the agency of either the
military or civil authorities, some of our streets
have been much improved within a short time. It
is particularly observable on west Davie street, be
ginning at Fayetteville and continuing to the North
Carolina depot. The deep cuts which were seen
alorfg that thoroughfare during the summer have
been filled up, much to the relief of pedestrians as
well as the operators of vehicles. We trust the
work of improvement in the respect mentioned will
be continued until all our thoroughfares have been
put in equally good condition.
Tobacco. It may be of interest to the holders
of "the weed in this vicinity to know that a letter
from the commissioner of internal revenue, address
ed to H. H. Helper, the assessor for this district,
says : "All manufactured tobacco in your district
should be inspected and branded prior to gale and
consumption, and you should direct all such to be
seized when found under conditions violating in
structions." - - -
What's the Matter ? Oh inquiry at fountain
head we were informed that the bridges on the lice
of railroad from this city had all been repaired so
far as not to obstruct the transportation of passen
gers or freight. This being true, what produces
such great confusion in the receipt of the mails?
We seldom see Newbern or Wilmington papers
until they are several days old. There is a screw
loose somewhere.
As Important offering of government possessions
will be made on the 28th inst., as may be seen by
consulting the notice of tha medical purveyor, Dr.
D. G. Rush.
A Candidate. Mr. John H. Boner is announced
to-day as a candidate for the position of engrossmg
clerk of the Senate. He has capacities of a nne or-
dtr.
A New Novel Messrs. W. B. Smith & Co., of
the Southern Field and Fireside Publishing House,
in this city, yesterday gent us a copy of Mrs. Fan
ny Murdaugh Downing's new novel, "Nameless,"
just issued from their press. Of course we have
had only opportunity to read a part of it connected
ly, but even in such a review enough of the style
of this new candidate in the literary world is dis
cernible to fix her as a woman of rare genius. We
shall not detract from the pleasure of Mrs. Down
ing's Carolina readers by revealing the plot of this
story they must be left to enjoy in full the pecu
1 iar pleasure which we have realized, increased in '
proportion as we have advanced towards more per
fect comprehension of the complete . work. It is to
be confessed that her imaginative faculties, though
surprisingly ripe and refined in use, are well bal
anced by a clear conception that one of the special
trusts of such labor is the developement.not repres
sion of nobility, goodness, truth, and virtue. It is
riot an objectless book head and no heart a mag
azine of licentiousness but a sweet story, foil of
pathos as instruction, and replete with both quali
ties. Comparisons often afford no illustration, but we
are entirely satisfied that the present effort of Mrs.
Downing will give her a claim to favoritism with
the public exceeding that reached by Mrs. M. E.
Braddon and writers of her school. Without their
overstrained pictures and excessive, not to write
ridiculous ornamentalism, the new light has con
trived to irradiate her pages with a deep, profound
interest.
We hope for the interest of Southern literature,
the intrinsic merit of the volume, the enterprise and
taste of the publishers, and the entertainment of
the reading world, that "Nameless" may run
through several editions. The typography and
binding are handsome, and do credit to Southern
skill Get a copy and read it.
A Chance to obtain many articles of household
necessity and ornament will be afforded by the sale
of property of the late Wm. J. Lougee, which is
advertised to come off next Monday. The effects
to be disposed of are generally as good as new.
Cards, Circulars, Handbills, Programs, &c.,print
ed at tbe Progress Job Office cheaper, by twenty
five per cent, than elsewhere. If those who have
printing to do will give us a call, we will satisfy
them of the fact. "
