The last "Whig" contains a very seyere and we ihii.k just stricture upon the corruption and bribery which was Lown to be practiced by the Senatorial candidates in Richland District, S. U.

In our own State, we think we can say ; without fear of contradiction, that the Senatorial candidate, as Suffrage now exists, would find it equally as easy to buy his election as the candi date fur the Commons and much easier too, for .!c lanrer the number to operate on, the more dif- ficult it would be to accomplish. A man wlio could not be bribed lo vote fur a Commoner, we think could scarcely be bribed to vote for Sen ator. We are in favor of Free Suffrage ; we believe it to be a great right that belongs to the people, we hope the present Legislature will take the in- j - iatorv steps to effect the necessary change, and we have no fear that our people will be sunk by exercise to me uep.us oi uegrauatio., ,mu w...t... . : . .1 j ..r j i.:u 'he Sand Hillers of South Carolina have fallen; not by having exercised this right inestimable to to freemen and formidable to tyrants only, but by the negation of those rights and the partial legis lation with which they are inflicted. m Our Book Table. Tie New York Review The October No. has been laid upon our table, and judging from this specimen it promises to be a valuable addition to our periodical literature. The leader, on "Abo litionism," is a temperate, well considered article, and while it is not as able a vindication of our Constitu'ional rights as Dew's essay or Harper's memoir, it administers a well timed and caustic rebuke to the fanatics.

The S iamer Washington arrives heie at 11 o'clock last night, with Liverpool dates of October 11, and the Niagara reached Halifax this morn ing, bringing Liverpool dates of the 14th instant. 7'he Arabia arrived out on the 14.h. Sebastopol was formally invested by the Bllied forces on the 5:h of October. Tho original plan of attacking the fortress from 'he north had been abandon d by the allies, who, inking B 'laklava lor their base of operations, wete homhardtng the wails on the south and east. The aqueduct which supplied Sebastopol with water had been CU! off hy the allies. The Russians had sunk seven ships of the line at the m uth of the harbor fa prevent ilj allied fleets from co-nperating with their armies. Marshal St. A maud was dead, and the command of the French forces had devolved on General Canrobcrt. Prince Menehikoff had retired towards the north with his forces, where he daily expected reinforcements under General O.-tensacken and Prince Gortsehakoff. The allies had landed 8,(300 cavalry in the Crimea. Th" f fficial reporl fJf the battle of Alma shows that 2,000 English and 1,400 French were killed and wounded. The Russians fled precipitately, burning the villnge9 in their route, and leaving 6 000 wounded behind. Prince Menehikoff him self barely escaped capture, his carriuge contain ing his priyale papers having been taken. The inhabitants of OJessa have resolved to burn their city, raiher ihan surrender, in case of an attack. An outbreak was feared in Warsaw, and the Russian Imperial Guard was marching there by forced marches. Prussia now expresses a willingness to act with Austiia. The ci'y of Memel had been nearly destroyed by fire, involving a loss of 2 000,000. Tallow had advanced Is. 6d. in consequence of the large quantities destroyed there.

We have the following additional particulars of the discovery of the fate of Sir John Franklin's expedition. It is a despatch, dated Montreal, Oc tober 21 : "The Montreal Herald of this morning states that yesterday they despatched a special messen ger to the Hudson Bay Company, s house, at La chine, and that, through the kindness of the Governor, Sir George Simpson, they are enabied to lay before their readers the following outlines of a despatch received by him yesterday from Dr. McRae : Dr. McRae has been absent on the coast since the first of June, 1853, and returned to York Factory on the 2Sth of August last, from whence he forwarded letters by express to Sir George Simpsorn via the Red river settlement. After briefly noticing the result of his own ex pedition, he proceeds to slate that from tho Esqui maux he had obtained certain information of tho fate of those connected with the Franklin expedi tion, who starved to death after the loss of their ships, w hich were crushed in ihe ice w hile making their way south to the Great Fish river, near the outlet of which a party of whites had died, leaving accounts of their sufferings in mutilated corpses of some, which evidently, from their appearance, furnished food to their companions. 'This information, although not derived from the Esquimaux who communicated with the whites, and who found the remains, but from another band, who obtained the details viva voce, may be relied on. There is no doubt of the truth of the report, as the nalives had in their possession various articles of European manufacture which had once been in the possession of the whites; among these articles were several silver spoons, forks, &c., on one of which was engraved Sir John Franklin, K. C. B., while others have on them crests and initials to identify the owners as having belonged to the ill fated expedition. The drawings of some of them have been sent down. The fearful tragedy must have occurred in the spring of 1850." - The f licomiilg Cotton Crop. We take the following from the circular of Messrs. Talcot & brotin rs, made up for transmis sion to Liverpool by the steamer which sailed lasi Saturday : The advices to hand since our last are very unfavorable. A correspondent at Mobile, who fa vored us with his views, which we published per Africa, 19th ultimo, and who it is well known has, through his extensive correspondence with the in terior of Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, means of information unsurpassed by any one of the South, writes us under date of 4th insiant at Mobile, as follows: I took the liberty of writing to you on ihe 9th of September, in regard to the prospects of the cotton crop. Since then, so far from having seen anything to warrant an increased estimate of ihe crop, I am now thoroughly convinced that the figures then given (3,000,000) will not be realized. In addition to the serious injury to the crop, in conseqii'-nce of the very severe drought, there has recently been general and protracted storms and rains throughout ihe States of Alabama, Mis sissippi, Louisiana and Texas, which have done great damage, particularly on the lands which had been doing best." Another well informed correspondent writes as fallows : Nashville, October 6. From the best infor mation that I can obtain in regard lo the cotton crop of the United Slates, I have formed an opin ion that it will be far short of the general estimates, and much below my own estimate when I left New York. Jt may reach 2,900,000 bales. I now consider that a very full estimate. I have met with planters here from Louisiana, Arkansas and Mississippi, and they all give me similar ac counts. I have not seen one who makes more than three-fourths of his last year's crop." We still hope for a better re.uit, unless an early frost occurs. Wiih a late frost the new blooms nod bolls which have appeared since the rains of 18: to 23d ultimo would incrense the yield, and we therefore still hold to the figure we have ud. vised, namely, 3,100,000, The State Fair. The scond Fair of the North Carolina Agricul tural Society, which commenced here on Tuesday last, is sti! in progress, and will bo closed tcday, Friday, by reading out the premiums, -and by ah exhibition of the prize animals, &e. We have no hesitation in saying, as the result of some obser vation, that the present exhibition is greatly superior in every respect to that of last year. The entries of horses, hogs, poultry, cattle, vegetables, ma chinery, nnd manufactured arliah s of nil kinds, largely exceed those of last year; while, as a I general rule, the animals and articles on exhibition are superior to most ot those exmoitea at tne last Fair. We learn that there are more than a thou sand entries on the books, one entry frequently including several articles; and that a number of manufactured articles arrived too late to be placed on the lists made out to be examined and passed upon by tire judges for awarding piemiums. Foral Hall, Farmers' Hall, and Mechanics' Hall, have been well filled with the'specimens assigned them ; nnd this, though the first-named buiiding has been doubled in size, and the tyo last erected since last year. We mioht o somew hat into detail with reference to everything on exhibition, but it would hardly be just to do so. We should necessarily omit many articles, if we were to attempt to enumerate them; and comparisons might be instituted which would be unjust to some of the exhibitors. We do not fiel disposed to discriminate, even if we could do so accurately and properly, where all have made such laudable efforts to excel. Here after, when the list of premiums shall have been completed, we may make occasion to allude more specifically to the varied productions of nature and art so profusely exhibited on the oc casion. On Wednesday and Thursday there were trials of speed in trotting horses in harness; and on Thursday ihe plowing-match took place. On Thursday the Address was delivered, pur suant to appointment, by the Hon. Kenneth Rayner, of Hertford. The speaker occupied some two hours in its delivery, and during all that time he kept the earnest attention of the immense assem blage. It was as such Addresses generally are of ralhor a theoretical, discursive character; but it w as equal, in every respect, as a composi tion and as a specimen of eloquence, to the ex pectations of ihe audience. It has been printed, and the public will therefore have an opportunity of reading it and judging of it for themselves. On Thursday the assemblage at the Fair Grounds could not have been less than eight thou sand. There were probably two hundred wagons in the vicinity of the grounds, and the stream ol carriages and vehicles of various sorts was con tinuous from the City to the point of attraction. The only obstruction to the general comfort and enjoyment has been the dust but this, even if we had been favored with a rain, would have been unavoidable from the number of vehicles and persons. It has indeed been a proud time not only for the farmers and mechanics, but for the State of North Carolina. It was an exhibition not merely of w hat the Slate is capable of now, but the earnest ness and enthusiasm evinced by all furnish the most gratifying pledge of still better achievements of greater success in the future. Raleigh Standard 21s. Slavery in California. Happily, the result of ihe recent elections is not altogether disastrous lo the South. Even from the gloom of defeat in the North, comes a ray of hope that the insolent triumph of the abolitionists may stimulate ihe Z'-al of the apathetic and rouse the resentment of the submissive, so that men of all parlies and of every disposition in the South, may perceive the necessity of united and energetic action in defence of their rights. Besides this general effect, there is a signifi cance in the result of the California ( lections which the South observes with satisfaction and with a presage of good fortune. In addition lo the ordinary political issues, parties in California are distinguished by diverse and conflicting views of slavery. The Democratic party is split into two factions, one of which professes the fashion able free-soil notions of shivery and of iis evil in fluence on the welfare of society ; while the other understands its true nature, and proposes to intro duce and establish it in the State. The forces of the first aro led by Brodeiick, and are mainly re cruited by emigrants from the New England States. The other parly is composed chiefly of Southern gentlemen, and whilst ordinarily distin guished by its attachment to the fortunes of Sen ator Gwyn, is really controlled by such men as Hamilton, Peachy and Inge. The struggle be tween these parties has been fi'-rce and arduous, and it was long doubtful for whom victory would pronounce. But the vulgar energy of a brutal rowdyism was unequal to the contest with talent and character, and we witness ut last the complete triumph of the " Chivalry." The candidates of the Gwyn Democracy are elected by a decisive majority over both the Broderick m n and the W higs. The unseen but active issue between these fac tions is whether the Southern portion of Califor nia shall be organized into a separate State, with a constitution recognising and establishing slave ry. The recent success of the Gwyn party pro mises a satisfactory solution of this problem. And thus may 'he military violence by which Califor nia was devoted to free-soil be avenged, and the Souih be yet restored to an equal participation in the wealth of that splendid empire. The Ne braska principle of popular sovereignty and non intervention smooths the way for the establish ment of a slave State in Southern California. For, if the people of California choose to divide their domain, and to set up another State with Suuthern institutions, of course Congress will not presume to interpose any objection. The Nebras ka bill forbids Congressional interference, and leaves it to the " peoplo of a State or Territory lo determine their own institutions." Southern California is peculiarly propitious to negro labor, and its inhabitants are very anxious that slavery should be introduced amongst them. Richmond Enquirer. A Difference of Opinion. The New York Courier speaks ol" the nomination of John J. Her rick, the Whig nominee for Mayor in that city, as one " not fit to be made, and procured only by promises and hard cash." Tho Tribunn endorses Mr. Herrick a merchant of unblemished char acier, and large experience in public affairs, per sonally capable, public spirited and popular. The most severe case of Chronic Rheumatism can be cured by wearing a chain only a few days. Showering with cold water and brisk friction to he part affected should be rigidly observed under all circumstances. The common practice of rub bing on some greasy liniment is always inj'irous. The most severe acute pain c in be instantly re lieved by a single application of the chain. The Amazon.

Though pride may show some nobleness When honor is its ally- Yet, there is such u thing on earth As holding heads too highly ! Tha sweetest bird builds near the ground- The loveliest flo war springs low And we must stoop for happiness, If we its wcrth would know. J,ike water that incrusts the rose, Still hardening to its core, So pride encases human hearts, Until they feel no more. Shut up within themselves they live, And selfishly they end A life that never kindness did, To kindred oi to friends. While virtue, like the dew of Heaver), Upon the hearts descands, And draws its hidden sweetness out, The more, as more it bends.' For there's a strength in lowliness, Which nerves us to endure A heroism in distress, Which renders victory sure t The humblest being born is great, If true to fis degree ; His virtue illustrates his fate, Whatever that may be ! Thus let us daily learn to love Simplicity and worth ; For not the eagle, but the dove, Brought peace upon the earth ! Every Democrat! Under the auspices of the Democratic party the United States has become a nation, and, its doc trines alone have been the primary causes of our country's success. No important measures ever originated with the opposition during the short periods of its power, and all those whjqh have con duced to and insured the present greatness of our country and its position and power amongst the nations of the earth have originated with ; have been urged, defended and struggled lor by the Democratic part'. With if, patriotism is a principle, the good of all the citizens of the Republic its only object. En couraging no factions, it only embraces principles of universal application; recognizing no doc trines originating in merely partial or local in terests, it alone guarantees to and defends for all citizens similar and equal rights and privileges, and protects all alike in their persons and property without exception or restriction without qtialifi cation or interrogation, beyond the fact of citizen ship of this Republic ? Citizenship offered to men of all nations nnd creeds by the laws of this great confederacy ever since its existence as an independent Union, and guaranteed by the constitution, is now for the first time in the history of the republic really endan gered. In the face of the experience of upwards of half a century, and of the fact that not one in stance can be produced in which it can be proved lhat the provisions of the constitution and laws have been prejudicial to the interests of the coun try, a factious and unresonable but formidable opposition has now arisen. Combinations nnd conspiracies having objects totally at variance with the Constitution and laws exist and are widely ex tended. Once igain the Democratic parly defends the Constitution. Once again it calls on tho ci'izens of the republic to rnllv in defence of the institutions of their country. The Democratic party expects every man to do his duty. Pennstlvanian . - - !

To prevent weak eyes, from reading or writing, the; light should never be allowed to rati on the pa per or on the eyes of the reader or writer, but the left side, for then the eyes are not annoyed wiih the shadow of the pen, as when the light comes from the right side; in writing, blneish paper is better for the eyps than pure whre. When the eyes feel fa. figued, bathing them in the cold water will both strengthen and relieve them. Ground glass shad' s, at night, are bad, as they deaden the light too much; the common paper shades which concentrates the light downwards is much better.
