THE MESSENGER. 0. A. M MAILT St J.

HARD TIMES. The cry of" hard times, " hard times : .;;n.r louder and oncer lltrouah our 19 "jj'.-O " . section of country, nnd truly we think they i;vi in become hard indeed.

Now, will dot the people learn a lesson? Wo can assure them thailhey will do much better without money man without bread, and if, instead of all turning politicians to discuss the uffuirs of the Go- vcrnmcnt to the neglect uf their domestic duties, they will go to work yes, lay off their tattered broadcloth, and go seriously to work, they will soon find better times" at least so far as it regnrds the necessaries ol life. One very great cause of hard limes is to be found in the fact that there arc too many great strapping lazy young men who L-ir.. irviii!? to livo without work. " I want no got into business," is the cry front June E January.

Wc aro almost all complaining of the scarcity of money while wc are about to lack something to oat. And why? Was the last season unfavorable to cropping? By no me ma. It was quite favorable ; and good crops were uiadu by limse who exercised the proper industry. 11U nnnv of those who succeeded lust sen. son, sold their grain in the fall at a very low rate, not because they were in dubt, but be cause Polly, and Jinny, and Patsy wanted new silk, dresses, nnd Billy and Tommy must needs have new broadcloth coats. And then they refused to sell thoir cattle because they could not get a much by a dollar or two as they thought they ought to have had, and in consequence, tho same cattle have eaten far more than the differ ence between what they nsked and what llicV could have got ; and after eating up wbnt tvjs left lay down nod died. Now, frieo'ds loan; by another winter to keep no more stociqhan what you are sure you can keep well. off your surplus cattle in the fall, or fatten -and cat them and save your bacon for marltct in the spring and summer. It is a great mistake for a farmer to keep a grown cow beast twelve monlhsbecause lie thinks that then he ill bo able to g4 two or three dollars morcfor it than he can You cannot keep a cow through one now. winter as it should be done for fire dollars worth of hay, to say nothing of the trouble mid risk.

Oir The elections for members to Con gross and ihe'J State Legislature comes on in Virginia this month. From tho tone of the papers wc judge the parties are getting warm. OO" la tho eighth Congressional district of this State, Mr. A. H. Aerinston has been nominated as the Democratic candi. date for Congress. r Cndldati for CoBfTtu U.tlti itceni triet. Th Whig CWeottM'whjch met short time since In the iec6jiiJ)Utrlct, W nominate candidate for Congress, Domi nated D, M. BaI0k, Eaqf of Cabarrul. , The vote stood for Barringer, 32 ' Osborne), ' 23 Edoey, . i New paper. We have received? num. ber of the " North Slate VWg," a fiew paper, published at Washington, in this State. It is 'handsomely prited, edited with ability, and, os its Dame indicate, advo. cates Whig principles. We wish the pro. prietor a long list of subscribers, and a well filled puree. OO Among the caws disposed of by the Superior Court at this place last week, was one, tho State against a certain W. VV. Nix on. for larceuv. It waa charred that he had stolen a quantity ol corn from J. m Smith, Esq., of this plade. The jury seem, cd to be of opinion that the charge was sus toincd by the evidence, and the 'Judge or. lorcd that the Sheriff give him a receipt for suid corn, iruhe shsrjoof thirty.iiine lushes on his bare back which was accordingly done, aud the prisoner set at liberty. 05" A lata Alabama paper received at this office, announces that IIou. Samuel Mc Roberts. U. S. Senator, died at Cincin. nati, Ohio, on tho 27th of last month ; but we havo a Cincinnati paper of the 31st March, which says nothing about it. We suspect it is u mistake. Qr A Pennsylvania paper chronicles the marringo of Mr. George Mouse to Miss Ann Humor. We suppose there was one humorous Mouse, and that Miss Humour had a humoor for Mouse-eatcHtng. (XT The proprietor of that ruosf excel, lent paper, Tho New Genesee Farmer, will pleaso accept our thanks for the back numbers which were forwarded to us, and have just been" received. CO1" Hon. George Robertson, has re signed his office as Chief Justice of the Su. preme Court of Kentucky. (r Andrew Jackson Donaldson, ne. phew and formerly Private Secretary to the Ex. President Jackson, is a candidalo for Congress in the Nashville District of Ten. ncssco. We should guess his chance for cloction was rather dull. OCT Tho venerable Robert R. Roberts, senior Bishop of the Methodist fc. Church, was dangerously ill at tho last accounts his recovery dispaircd of. Cttr An interesting correspondence has recently taken place between Hon. Lewis Cass, late Minister to- France, and Hon. Daniel Webster, Secretary of State, in reference- to the late Ashburton treaty. It is very longthy, filling some fifteen columns in the National Intelligencer too long for our paper. Some of those who pretend to be judges in such matters, say that Mr. Cass has coma out second best. Jire, We regret ttf learn that Wm. Wilson, Sr., a very worthy and respectable citizen of Yancey county, residing on the road leading from this to Burnsville, seven miles from the httter place, had Ids dwell-ing-hausc nnd kitchen, with a portion of his furniture, entirely consumed by fire on the 9ih inst. The fire originated by sparks from the kitchen chimney falling on the roof of the dwelling-house. OT A report has been recently incircu. ation through many of the papers that Messrs. Secretaries Spencer and Uipshur recently had a fisticuff at a cabinet meeting. The Madisonian says that the report is ut. terly false. (KT There has been, for the last ten days or two weeks, very favorable weather for ploughing land and pitching crops. It is pow high timo that the corn crops in this region were planted. Early planting, after the land has been well plou:hcSiand well manured, will always ensure the heaviest, soundest crop. We ha ve long believed that most of the farmers in the western part of this State planted corn too late in the sea winters are as long and colder than here, the entire corn crop is often planted by the last of. March ; and though there is frost again and again atier me corn is in me ground, and the, ground sometimes frozen above it, still tho farmers always depend upon their early planted corn for the best crop. Another fault in this country is that of scratching instead of ploughing the land Land will nol cannot- produce well that has not been well ploughed. It must be ploughed close and deep, so that it may be well pulverized and if this cannot be ef. fected at one time ploughing it must be tried again, three times before planting corn than not have it well broken up. Good crops cannot be reasonably expected where land has not been well ploughed and well ma nurcd. ... cess i mul We luive long been satisfied that our vil lage was cursed with dog lather being at least from five to ten where' there should be but one and recent events have proven that our conjectures vere right In one night this week, Mr. J. M. Smith, bad no less than twelve, sheep killed and several other severely wounded by dogs. Tbe guilty in this case will, we suppose, suffer death, as the penalty due their offence, but what is to be done with the scores that yet remain T Let them run, we suppose, until a few more dozen sheep shall have been killed. OCT Hon.' J. & J. Daniel Is a candidate for Congress in the 7th district of this State. , . . AsuivuJUE, Ahril8,1843., To the Editors of the Messenger : I have just read a communication pub. lished in your tost paper signed T.L. Cling man, in which lie refers to a proposition which, he says, he " authorised bis friends lo mako to me two ynrs ago at Haywood Superior Court. I will now present the specific charge which he has mndo sgniiwt me : Mr. ulingman says in the Messenger, that he informed his friends that they were authorised on his part to say to mc, that he would then withdraw and allow me to run without opposition, provided I would agree to decline being a candidate ut the end of two years, if my political friends should then "'think. 1t espedteftt lo da so.- Hesays that proposition by his outh-itv was ac cordingly submitted by some of ids f. iends to mc, nnd by me at once rejected ; and as he was informed I added, that I would nci ther buy out nor sell out. That is the charge. What may havo passed between Mr. Chngmnn and his friends 1 do not know. So far as I am concerned the facts of tho case aro these i At WnynesviUe, during the Superior Court of llaywood county, in tho snrintr of 1841, when I was' standing in tho street on individnnljwSmB across tho street from where MrXHnrJan was standing, ahd beckouvd rnto gq a few steps ; I went ; that individual then said Mr. Clingmun had aujhorised him to sny and propose to mejhat he would then with draw ud decline being a enndidnto for Congress at thtUtimc, if I would then ugrce to withdraw and decline two years alter, wards, Hnd let Mr. Clingman be the candi- date for Congress in this district. (There was not one word said about the condition now ndded ."'if mv nolilical friends should then think ft expedient for me to do so.' I answered immediately aud promptly, i would neitliur buy out, nor sell out. And why did I so answer t becauso I was no man lor a political onrnuin ana saiu. i could not upree to buy out any other candi. date in consideration llmt he would sell out to me. All other men in the district had equal rights with myself to run or not to run i to be or not to be, candidates lor Oon. grcss then or at any other time. If I l ad agreed lo that proposition, and ratified ana confirmed that political bargain, in my opinion, I would havo been unwortny to receive the votes ol Hie people, i now re- peal, 1 will neither buy out nor sell oui. i would not, it 1 could : and l couia not, u i would. All political power is, and of right ought to bo, vested in the people. lucre let it be and remain. Lot their w ill dc done ; let them select whomsoever they please to represent them. Let no candidates enter into contracts or bargains that ono shall go at one time, and another at another time. Such agreements should never in my opin- ion be made by candidates ; and ll made, they aro a violation of the privileges of the people and the rights of freemen, ihe people, not tho candidates, arc to say who dfi ill represent them. Mr. Clingman says the proposition lie made by his friend two years ago, ho thought a reasonable one. Well, there is no accounting tor taste, or the strange opinions of men! That which ho says he thought reasonable, I thought most extraordinary and unreasonable, and at that very court informed some of my friends of it, and expressed my surprise and astonishment thai such a proposition should have been made by his consent and authority, i Mr. Clingman says, I seem to regnrd mysclfos possessing a vested estate in the office of Representative. lie is mistaken. I have no vested estate in that oitice : and that is oho strong reason why J said to his friend. I could nut buy out, nor sell out. I desired to do then, just as I intend to do now, trust to and depend on the voluntary votes and freewill offering of the people, and by their decision 1 will most cheerfully abide and submit L h ive been elected to five different Con. presses, ana naa one coniesiea eieciiun Mr. Clingman obiccu to the length of lime I have been in Congress. Well now, he is the last man rhWis district who should make that objection. Ho moved here some six or seven years since from Surry county That district was ably and faithfully reprc. sented for 27 or 8 continuous years by the Hon.. Lewis Williams, who died ai Wash inaton dunnaibe-iast yar, nnd Mr. Cling mun-yolcd forand warmlyxadvocated.liis election after he had been in Congress 18 or 20 years. I presumo the real cause ol his objection to nie is "hot length of timrr.or ho would not acve voted lor Mr. Williams after he had been in Congress about double; the time of my humble services: but be cause ho is uncommonly anxidtis to become a member of congress himself I make no objections to Mr. Clingman, or any oilier man in the district becoming a candidate or Congress. It is the right and priviU-ge of any man j and 1 hope 1 have that right which is common to all other men. I do not think Mr. Clingman ought to plead the political statute of limitations on mc, after going down to Raleigh during the last Lei gislature and sending on to Washington and getting a copy w the Journals ol Vad press to condemn and expose my votes and course in the House of Representatives. Members of Congress and members of the I Stato Legislature apprised me of the ar-' mn'gernents thai were nttidc and making to defeat Epe soon after thi hist aessjon of Con. grew met After all that flourish and other preparations to oppose and condemn my public coarse, I resolved to be a candi date ana aeicnd myself Deiore my generous and noble constituents, who have stood by me and sustained me io sis, troubles, nd I firmly believe they will Cot desert aor for sake me in the seventh, when all manner nf evil reports abd groundless charges have been Circulated Id my absence to try to prejudice the people against me", and to pre luaira nw wmioui neariua. . i imtqib abidtnc conndence ta the virtue and inteiu. sence and justice of the people. I have no chorees to make acainst any body but shall endeavor to defend and justify myself against' the unfounded charges that have been, or may bej made against me: Nr. Clingman says he has a firm convict iou the majority of the people of this district are opposeu iu my eiecuon. - remnps nis wun is father to that thought. " He said so two years ago, but a majority of 133T freemen" differed with him in opinion.' I cannot aajf tow the people are disposed, but I would rather tnkc the verdict of seventy thousand disinterested freemen than one interested candidate. Yours, JAMES GRAHAM. iNbrrSTttvAMj Econonv. The follow ing anecdote which we found in an Eastern er, while it excited our risible propen. silica to a degree very alarming to our neighbors, served at the same time, to open our eyes to an entirely new view of the ad vantage ol an economical display of house furniture. A young man had just entered into busi. ncss, nnd taken a partncN-'-a lovely one for life. Happily she Dossesscd the same principles and view as himself, ond they were the only cofrect ona.,TW young man had expended . his little capital in tiie purchase pftock ; as he told ho supplied himself With liKfre, iway paying " purenweo, una his ndrehuae with his business, gradually increas ed ; by this course of conduct he was very noon known, nnd his character for integrity firmly ea. tatili"'""', although this waa not an aim but a con. sequence. At one time, when purchasing av part of a siimll cargo of merchandise, for which he had demand, ho was prevailed upon by the merchant to take the whule, on a credit for a given time ; the youn man was willing but would give no se. curily; the merchant would take his own notes and the bargain waa made. On the following morning, however, yielding probably to tbe until, ral doubt of commercial transactions, the mer. cbant desired his head clerk to visit the vouncr man's houe, nnd sec how they were provided for, and galhrr if possible, from- appearances, sonic idea of tiic prospect of payment. At the house the clerk found the young and lovely wife pre par. ing the morning meal. Upon a clean white board he was rolling out the cakes, which being cooked and ready, with other things, tbe aforesaid board being now covered with a noat cloth, were spread ; thereon, and the young couple seating themselves opposite to each other, having the board between hem, supported upon their laps, proceeded to die. euss their breakfast. Ilia clerk did not make known tho object of hia visit, but returning to his employer, quietly informed him that it waa " all right." Ah, how d'ye know, what have you seen T" " Oh, I've seen enough to convince mc that you may safely credit him for ten times tbe amount."
