The enquiry has been often rnade Where were Hon's
George E. Eaoger .and W. P. JMangum when the vote
was taen upon the California bill in the Senate? To
these' enquiries no response has been made, an J away
down the dim shores of futarity the enquiry'will wander
lonjr unanswered, . . . I V , -: '

feared something in the shape of i.nstrvctions., Eh ?

: Every word uttered publicly by a Southerner,
en lite political topic of the day, every sentence,
every paragraph written, is weighed well' by all
of those at the North who chance to see thorn.
A nJ when we say much is rend there now, of
. what, has been said and written by Southerners,
we but state what is notoriously the fact.
What sail or written then is well weighed.and
every thing" conveying the most distant qualifica
tion of an agreement with them encourages them
. o renewed hostilities upon our interests and insti
tutions. Every sentence agreeing with them is at
once a Southern proposition of Free Soil. . Every
pii-gray rliieh exhibits the tncu!eneo of a watch
and 'Wait policy is an axiom of submission; and
everv instance of a disposition to rely upon thorn
lo dous justicdof theirown accord, is viewed by
them as a species of aid and comfort which will

Gov. Dell has writtten a powerful address to iho
called ression uf the Legislature, now sitting at
Ar.stin. He reviews ably the causes which have
led to the dispute about the boundary, and the ne.
j ccssity for the meeting of the Legislature : he
then in eloquent' terms refers to the relations
which should exist between ;a State and tho Fede
ral Government : how far the Federal Government
may go in demanding obedience from a State, and
how far a State may. submit with jut degradation
and-dishonor ; and he n&vses tire Legislature to
make no surrender which shall tarnish the bright
reputa!ion the State has won1: Gov. Jlell's mes
sage is a much abler document than the Presi

There is ie of the moct snrprisicg articles' in the 'Ra
leigh Rrgittcr' of the 31st olt. that we have seen in that
farprising' skeet for a Ion j time. The editor, by itauh.
lication,' baa fully committed himself left no room for es
cape, bot mwl Bow endwa mil the odium whicll Um Inter
lion of that article in bis columns entails. '
It will be remembered by those who Lave observed tb
course of thai paperHthat soma lime apo the 'Anti-slaTery
Sundard," an abolition paper of the North, re-published
from the 'Register an art'cls opon which it comtocnted
It never bad a chance to copy an article which it could
approve from any other paper in the State. This made as
believe there was a community of scntimeat, a sympathy
of feeling-, between the 'Register' and 'Aati-slivery Stan
dard.' Subsequent event prove our belief to be correct.
ktir- - Standard and the 'Register le(k denounced the
Nasbvillb Convention ; the 'Standard' and 'Registc r both
heiped abic npOn 3Ir. Calhoun ; tho 'Standard and the
Rcginlcr loth praised Mr. Claj'a speeches ; the 'Standard'
and the "Register lolk disagreed fpm the action of the
It'ashville Convention, after it had mtt, and loth were on-
sparin;-of tfceir denunciation of Mr. Rhett, its noble de
fender. Nothing can bo more clearly established from
concurrent testimony, than that between the 'Register and
A oti-ahtvery -Standard' there bas existed the clo$ett yi-
1 1 . ' ;
Fnrther, during the rccjut campaign in this 5tate, the
Register charged Governor Rcid with being a Wilmotist.
The charge it i true has been nailed to the counter as
fjJse by 41,003 and more, true Southerner, each one gi
ving it a lick at the ballot-box ; 1 ut the An'i-sla very Stan
dard' bad been accustomed to placing such implicit reli
ance npoa lit 'Register's t atements, that opon 'RcidV
election onocrits correspondents eongratnlates its editors
upon it as a TTi.'mot triumph ! - Mark it well, reader, that
the 'Standa rd got its information that Rcid was a Wil-
Catawba Spring :
'We paid a flying visit recently to this delightful wa
tering place-, and enjoyed very much our short visit. ,
The water is much stronger than we expected to find
it, and i said by invalids jwho hare tried both to be
equal to the justly noted water of Wat son's Snriisw.
Some we have heard express a preference lor the Ca- I jail.

There are three Springs : one veryeti f ply impregna

and the other a chalybeate, -j The buildings are located

at all times enjoyed, and in view of quite good scenery,
