result of their investigation, and Mr Bird, the surveying examiner-general of exercise, was oidercd to make a further examination. Mr Bird stated he received possession of eiht sacks of the rubbish, which vas so iine'an intimation of tea that at first sight any person would have supposed it to be the genuine article British Slavery. The following extract shows that while England is thrusting her interference into the affairs of other nations Spain, Portugal, the United States for the purpose of abolishing the relations existing between master and servant, she does not urge the emancipation of the millions of slaves he'd by the East In dia Company in a bondage which, if com pared with that of the negro in the United States, is as much worse, as is that of the laborers of England, compared with the same class in the United States. At the time of the conquest by the Moslem power, the Hindoo law on the subject of sla very was (as it still is) to this effect: A per son becomes a slave by capture in war, voluntary submission, pecuniary considera tion, maintenance during a famine, for the discharge of debt, by way of punishment, by birth, gift or sale by parents or former owner. The slave is the absolute property of the mas ter, is spoken of in association with cattle under the designation of bipeds and cpjad rupeds no provision is made for the protec tion of the slave from the cruelty of the mas ter, nor is any limit fixed to the power of the mastfr: ne s'avc nas o right to his own acquisitions, nor is there any opening for emancipation, except in the case of a female slave bearing issue to her master, when both she and her offspring are eutided to freedom, it he have not legitimate issue ; and in a few other cases. Right of Suffha oe. The following ex tract from the sermon of a methodist clergy man, cannot be too much pondered by the people. ' Is it not a little curious that the Consti tution, which throws open so widely the right of suffrage, should not appear to know or to recognize a man unable to read ? And it is a question that at least will bear discussion, whether such a man is rot constitutionally disqualified from voting, whatever may be his other qualifications. Elections are by law to be by ballot. What does the man who can not read know about a ballot? How does he know for whom he votes? Nay it is not his own vote that he offers, at all, but that of some friend who has put into his hands a paper of the contents ol which he knows as little as an automaton. Is that what the Constitution means by voting? r' News by 31 ails. A National Bank. The Washington correspondent of the Charleston Courier says: '' The Secretary of the Treasury has prepar ed a plan for a National Hank, which he in tends to lay before Congress in his report, at the commencement of the coming session. In its main features it will resemble the Jate Bank, but will be surrounded with such checks, guards, and restrictions, as experi ence lias indicated as useful or necessary. He will propose a capital of thirty-five millions. He has not determined, h'Hs said, upon the locality of the mother Bank." Melancholy Suicidk. On Saturday, the 24th ult. her husband being absent at Browns boro near Louisville, Ky., Mrs. Caleb Dor scy, the wife of one of the wealthiest Farmers in the county, eluded the v igilance of her at tendants and shot herself with a rifle, the ball taking effect in her head and tearing in a shocking manner the lower part of her face, producing almost instant death. Her mind had been unsettled for some time, and she had been very carefully watched lest she should commit some violence upon herself, but in a momentary suspension of the exceed ing care of those attending her, she found means to deprive herself of life in a very speedy but most horrid manner. Raleigh Register. jArANr.sE use of THE Fan Neither men iior Women wear htits, except as a protection against rain. The fan is deemed a sufficient guard from the sun, and, perhaps, nothing Aviil more strike the newly arrived European than this fan, which he will behold in the hand or the girdle of every human being. Soldier.? and priests are no more to be seen without their fans (hnu fine ladies, who make of theirs the use to which fans are put in other countries. Amongst the men of Japan it serves a great variety of purposes. Visiters receive the dainties offered them, upon their fans ; the beggar, imploring charity, holds out his fan for the alms his prayers may have obtained. The fan serves the dandy in lieu of a whalebone switch, the pedagogue, instead of a ferule for the offending school boy's knuckles, and, not to dwell too long upon the subject, a fan, presented upon a peculiar kind of salver, to the high born criminal, is said to be announcing his death ; his head is struck off at the same moment he stretches his hand towards' the fan. .Manners and Customs of the Japanese Indi.cn Antiquities. We have been presented with several curious relics of the red men, which were laid bare by the late freshet: One, a curious urn, which was no doubt possessed by the fair daughter of some Indian chief, which served her to beguile many a tedious hour in decking it with the flowers of the forest. A string of beads made from the teeth of different animals, was found enclosed in a clay covering probably depos ited in the owner's grave, to enable her, as they superstitiously believed, to arrange her toilette in the other world. The urn we now use as a vase to hold the numerous boquets which we are daily receiving. Fori Gaines Ga.) Whig. Webster's Opinion on Rank Paper. Of all -ontrivances for cheating the la boring classes of mankind, none have been moroPcffectual than that which deludes then, with paper money. This is the most effectua of inventions to jcrtihze the rich man s field h,j the sueat of the poor man's brov: Daniel il'cbslers Speech in 1832.- 1 he editor of the Mississippi Intelligencer thinks that the Wbrds of If I choose, and be ci d to yoU!, shoUld j.e a ded (o. t For value received I promised to pay." We see no necessity of expressing them when they are so well understood. .V. O. Picayune. Dr T. W. Dyott, who has been confined lor about two years at Cherry Hill Prison, has been pardoned by Governor Porter. He is now over 70 years of age. Height of Waves The highest wave which struck the French ship Venus during her voyages was 75 metres, (246 feet;) the longest was within the sea of New Holland and was three times the length of the frigate or 150 metres (192 feet.) I'Ove in Australia This is a curious matter. The lover goes to a neighboring tribe, fixes his "eagle-glance" upon the maid that fills his eye, watches her movements with perseverance day by day, until she hap pens to stray in some retired spot, by grove or rivulet, then in a transport of ardor, rushes upon her with a rough club or wooden sword, knocks her down, beats her over the head un til she becomes senseless, then drags her off to his own tribe, and receives the blushing confession that her heart is won. They then become man and wife. A complete illustra tion, this custom, of the saying that a faint heart never won a fair lady.' Curious Plant. There may be seen at Mr Chupein's Soda and Refreshment Estab lishment, on E. Bay, a curious parasitic plant, from Florida, resembling a pine-apple in general appearance, and the palmetto some what in its leaves. It is called the "Air Plant," denoting its power of subsisting on air alone, without earth it usually grows, however, against a wall or the trunk or branch of a tree. Each plant contains more than a quart of water, imbibed from the atmosphere. Charleston Courier. The Crots. Accounts from western N. York represent the growing wheat crop as fine in that quarter. The same favorable re port is had in regard to the wheat crops in the neighborhood of Richmond and James River. Troops for Havana. The New Orleans Courier of a late date says: " It was under stood in Havana, that 8,000 troops were about sailing from Cadiz for Havana. This looks as if Espartei o was apprehensive of an at tack on Cuba from sonic European power or other." The Season. The crops every where around, as far as we have seen, or can hear, are very unpromising. Wheat generally looks badly corn is not good oats only is passable cotton is hardly at all. The fre quent wet and cold spells have prevented it from taking a start, so that but little has ap peared above the ground. Many of our far mers talk of ploughing up and making a Fresh beginning altogether. It is generally remark ed that a more unpromising season than the present so far, has never been known in this c o u n ( ry . J Vest em Carolinian. The Fisheries. The Georgetown Ad vocate states that the supply of fish this sea son, notwithstanding its backwardness and general inclemeucy, is equal, perhaps, to any ever before witnessed. The quality of both shad and herring is also excellent, so that our fishermen have been generally well re warded in their laudable hut laborious busi ness. Distilleries in the Unitfd States. There are 9,057 distilleries in the United States, manufacturing 36,343,236 gallons. North Carolina has 2,798 distilleries, Virgi nia 1,450, Tennessee 1,3S1, Pennsylvania 707, Kentucky S90, and New York but 3S. The Washington Correspondent of die Baltimore Sun say that Commodore War rington will succed to the Presidency of the board of Navy Commissioners. He entered the service on the 6th of Jan., 1S40, and his present commission is dated Nov. 22nd, IS14. He is one of Virginia's favorite sons. Commodore Wm. M. Crane is expected to take a seat in the board to-morrow. He was born in New Jersey ; entered the ser vice on the 23d May, 1793, and his present commission is dated 24th Nov., 1814. I Mv venture to assure him a most cor dial welcome by the citizens of the District of Columbia. A British Subject. A free negro, late ly arrested iu New Orleans, by some means managed to get up a prosecution against the captain of the police. The negro turns out to be a British subject, quite local, and in all probability belongs to the West India gang, upon whom the British ministry rely as auxi liaries in the work of insurrection and massa cre. The negro finds a defendant in a cor respondent of the Bulletin, under the signa ture of " Hale," whom the editor handles, however, wiihout mittens. If " Hale " don't look out, he won't be hale much longer. A Louisiana climate is not salubrious for a o-entleman of his inclinations. Baltimore Sun. Public Meeting. 3""There has been a large meeting in Abbeville, to consider the subject of the Whig plots against the South, which the Extra Session is to set in motion. We understand that with but six or eight dis sentient voices, Resolutions of the right kind were adopted. We look for the official re port with interest. Old Abbeville is always true. Ch a vlesto n SSIercu ry. 'You and I are much alike, said the beg gar to the banker. 'How sol" Wcboth contrive to live on. the labor of others.' ' But I carry on a lawful business for a liv ing,' said the banker. So do I,' said the beggar, 'but there is this difference, I get the property of others with their consent you get their property without their consent." From the St. Louis, Mo., Argus. California. r, This beautiful region, this western garden spot, will be settled and that immediately. Can hundreds of our young men do better than to make a trip to that delightful country even though they return in the fall of the year? Read the annexed article from the Indepen dence (Mo.) Chronicle, and make up your minds soon for the company will be off by the 10th or 15th of May. '; California Expedition. We feel per fectly warranted in sayiug to all those who may desire the information, that there is no doubt that there will be a company leave our borders this Spring for Upper California. The object is still to rendezvous at Sapling Grove, on the olj Santa Fe Road, by the 1 Oth or 15th of May. The number that may be on the ground by the time intended, we have no means of ascertaining, but from present indications, we have no doubt but there will be quite a respectable company. We are aware, nevertheless, that some of the gen tlemen, who registered their names as intend ed emigrants, at the meeting here in our Town on the 1st Feb. have drawn back. This, however, was to be expected. In every body of men, at least as large as that was, it may be calculated that some have not the nerve to prosecute so adventurous an enterprise, fur ther than the wind work. But we feel proud in being able to say, that many of them still hold on the even tenor of their way, determin ed to extend the pale of civilization and An glo-Saxon refinement to the very shores of the Pacific. Nor are our immediate ueiffhbors alone in the design of prosecuting this mag nificent object. By almost every mail the Committee of Correspondence receive letters from St. L.ouis and other points, making the necessary inquiries, and expressing a desire to join them. To all such we would say, come on and join our friends in their worthy design of reclaiming this Eden of the Farthest West from its present wild and unimproved condition. With the proper preparation and precaution, we are of opinion, that the com pany will meet with but little difficulty in reaching their place of destination ; but what glory and advantage awaits its consummation. Hundreds, nay, we may say, thousands are but waiting for the way to be broken. One company arriving there in safety will be but the prelude to hosts of others who will shortly join them in that region so eminently favored by nature. To all such, then, as are natural ly enamored of a frontier life, and, moreover possess the lion heart and iron nerve neces sary to the achievement of so grand and so distinguishing an enterprize, we would say falter not a moment. Already are many of your fellow citizens there anxiously waiting to receive you, and astonished, in view of many advantages and inducements held out to you, that you delay so long. We are proud that we have such men amongst us and yet proud to part with them on such an occasion. " All the officers of the expedition will be elected at the rendezvous (Sapling Grove) by the voice of the company." Episcopal Convention The Annual Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the Diocese of N. Caro lina, opened at St. James' Church in this Town on Wednesday last. The Bishop of the Diocese was present, as were nineteen of the clergy of the same ; being the whole num ber but three. The Rev. Dr. May of Phila delphia, and the Rev. Mr Lyman of the Dio cese of Maryland, were also present as visit ors. The lay delegation was small. Mr E. J. Hale of Fayetteville was chosen Secre tary of the body. The Convention sermon was preached on Wednesday morning by the Rev. Mr Singletary of Washington, N. C, and services were had in the forenoon and evening of each day. On Saturday night the Bishop administered to twenty six persons four of whom were colored the impressive rite of confirmation. On Sunday the Rev. Messrs. Backhouse, Geer, and Cheshire, were admitted to the or der of Priests, and Mr C. B. Walker to the order of Deacon. The followiug named gentlemen were elect ted delegates to the General Episcopal Con vention of the United States to meet in the city of New York. The Rev. Messrs. Ma son, Singletary, Buxton, and Johnson of the clergy, and Messrs. Judge Ruffin, Geo. E. Spruill, Wm. C. Lord and Josiah Collins of the laity. Wilmington Chronicle. Foreign News. Lamp Black. We had occasion to learn some things respecting the manufacture and sale of this article a day or two since. It is not too insignificant to be imported in con siderable quantities from England, but the American manufacture is preferred- The Baltimore market, we believe is cheifly sup plied from Virginia. It is made iu the fol lowing manner. A log cabin is built, say 16 feet square; round the interior of this building are hung white curtains ; in the cen tre of if, upon the ground is placed a pile of heart pioe, and this is covered with earth in such a manner as to permit the smoke to escape when the pile is fired. Part of the product of this slow combustion rises and settles on the curtains, from which it is after wards shaken offand put into a tin mould lined with paper. These moulds purport to con tain some of them a pound and others the frac tion of a pouud. The papers are then taken from the mould and packed in to casks and sold. Trade in New York. The Courier and Enquirer says: " General business this week has not been quite so active as it was antici pated it would be, but the arrivals of produce from the interior, and its exchange for the merchandise of our grocers and jobbers, now that the canal is open, will soon fill our busi ness streets with all the hurry and confusion attendant upon the business season." lb. Awful. The Nassau Telegraph says that a Mrs. Ripley, of Londonderry, N. H., was some weeks since safely delivered of Jive children at a birth, and that they are doing well ! The same woman had three at one birth five years ago, all of whom are alive and in cood condition From the Baltimore Sun. 1 H DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE. ARRIVAL OF THE BRITANNIA! Important .Vetrs The China Difficulties set tled The Steamship President not Arrived Great Fall in Teas. The steamship Britannia, Capt. R. B. Cre land, arrived at Boston on Thursday morn ing at two o'clock, bringing intelligence from England up to the 19th ult. She left Liver pool on the 20th at 1 o'clock P. M j arrived at Halifax on Tuesday, 4th inst., at 8 o'clock A. M- and left at 2 P. M. the same day ; ma king the passage from Liverpool to Boston in 15 1-2 days. She brings papers from London to the 19th ult. and Liverpool to the 20th. She brought 50 passengrrs to Halifax, and 29 to Boston ; and took in at Halifax, for Boston, ten. The cotton market at Liverpool on the 17th and 19 was dull, and sales small, at a decline of lSd. The steamer President had not arrived out, and great excitement prevailed in Liverpool and London in consequence. Nearly all hopes of her safety were given up, and in surance could scarcely be effected on her at any rale. The Duke and Duchess of Richmond and family arc in a painful state of suspense as to the fate of their second son, Lieut. Lord Fitzroy Lennox, who is on bonrd the Presi dent steamer. His lordship, who has tust exchanged from the 43d regiment to the 10th dragoons, and Mr Courtenay, eldest son of Mr P. Courtenay, M. P. for Bridgewater, are the only officers in the British army who had taken their passage in that vessel. Settlement with China. By the overland mail,' which arrived at Marseilles on the 4th ultimo, and reached London on the 8th, intelligence had been received of the settlement of the dispute with the Chinese authorities at Cantou. This was not effec ted until two of the forts at the passage of the Bogue had been stormed by the British for ces, the fleet of war junks destroyed, and the batteries higher up the river bombarded by the fleet. Then the Governor of Canton, seeing that the time for procrastination was passed, sent to beg for a suspension of hos tilities, and commenced the ncgociation, which speedily led to a settlement of the dis pute, at least so far as he had the power of settling it. The following are the terms agreed upon: 1. The cession of the island and harbor of Hongkong to the British Crown. All just charges and duties to tho empire upon the commerce carried on there to be paid as if the trade were conducted nt Whampoa. 2. An indemnity to the British govern ment of six millions of dollars, one million payable at once, and the remainder in equal annual instalments, ending in 1846. 3. Direct official intercourse between the countries upon an equal footing. 4. The trade of the port of Canton to be opened within ten days after the Chinese new yeorj and to be carried on at Whampoa tift further arrangements are practicable at the new settlement. United States Bank shares sold in London on tko 16th ult- "t about 51 AClfi- No less than 16 steam frigates are ordered to be immediately built at the different dock yards in England. McLeod. We find nothing of impor tance in the English papers in relation to the case of McLeod. The course of tho British Government appears to be too pacific to suit some of the rabid Tory prints. France. The news from France is desti tute of interest ; the violent debates on the supplementary credits for 1841 have ceased, and there is no other topic which gives the same excitement. Jlugsburgh, April 1. The Malta papers contain the following news from Constanti nople: " News has just been received from Circassia, that the Russians, taking advan tage of a heavy fall of snow, had made an at tack on Zibel, with 3,000 Georgians and Mingrelians, and 2,000 regular troops. The Circassians attempted to defend the place, but were put to flight, with the loss of two of their chiefs, 300 killed, and 300 prisoners. Jlll gomeine Zeilung, Jlpril 2. The Cashier of one of the most respectable commercial houses of Paris has absconded, leaving a deficit in his account of more than a million of francs, and that in consequence of this, the house has been forced to stop payment. Mr Macready has become the lessee of Drury lane Theatre. The house to be open ed in October. THE MARKETS. The Tea Trade. London, April 12, The intelligence from China had given a severe shock to the tea trade. Nothing was doing, so great had been the decline. April 16. The amount of business at the decline in prices occasioned by the intelli gence from China, has been very limited ; 4S00 packages were brought to public sale on Tuesday, and only about 300 found buy ers at a decline of 2d to 4d per lb. Great Freshet iH Mississippi The Columbus Democrat of the 3d inst states that immense damage has been sustained in Northern Mississippi by the heavy, rains' which have fallen there. . . All the low lands on the Yallabusha were entirely submerged, and at Columbus the river was about two miles wide. There had been no estimate of the extent of the losses sustained, but tney were supposed to be very great on the planta tions on that river, and on all the other large water courses. V. Beacon. Breach of. Marriage Promise. At Paterson.. N. J. on Monday last, a suit was tried for a breach 1 of the marriage pr&mise,' brought by Miss Jane Hartley against Mr Joseph Henry. The jury returned a verdict in favor of the fair plantiff of $1500. Ib: According to the late census, the popula tion of New York is 2,42S,92l ; Pennsylva nia 1,721,022; Ohio 1,519,467; Virginia 1,239,797. No other states reaches a mil lion: The total Ipopulat ion exceeds 17,100,-572. Emigration of the Swiss.. The Swiss journals state that a great number of the in habitants of Chaumaumx, although in the en joyments of a certain degree of wealth, ore disposing of their property with the intention of emigrating with their families to New York, others to Louisiana, where many of their fellow countrymen have made success ful settlements. Launch of the Steam Frigate Mrs sissirrr. The Philadelphia papers of yester day, contain lengthy accounts ot the launching of tho steamer Mississippi, from the Navy Yard at that city. The weather in the morn ing was fine, and thousands of persons were present to witness the spectacle of a great launch. She was launched about half past one o'clock, and glided into the water without a single accident of any description, although some five or six hundred persons were aboard at the time. This vessel is about twelve feet longer than the great ship Pennsylvania, though not so wide. The length of her keel is 306 feet 9 inches ; and her extreme length 244 feet. Her engines are calculated at 600 horse power, and she can carry coal for twenty five days steaming. She is pierced for twenty-six guns, and will carry Paixhan guns for ward, capable of throwing one hundred pound shot. On the whole, she is said to be a most finished specimen of naval arcnitecture, and will doubtless prove an ugly customer to any ship she may engage with in a hostile way. Sun. Arrest or the Hon. Charles F. Mitchell. The Montreal Herald, of the 6th inst. states that Mitchell, tho American forger and member of Congress, has at last been captured by Capt. Comeau, of the Mon treal police. Mitchell was taken at Longue Pointe, a few miles from that city, and was foolish enough to attempt to throw above twenty thousand dollars into the St. Lawrence a circumstance which could not have bene fitted him. in An.oh county, on the 5th inaL, Mr PRESLEY nSLMS, a very old an respectable citizen of that counfr- : - STATE tit NbRTtt CAROLINA, 1 Cumberland Ceuntif. f THIS day THOMAS R- MURPHY personally appeared befori me, one of thfe Jus tices of the Peace, in and for said county; and. made oath, that he placed a note of hand made by Joseph Small, Esq., of Chatham connty. for &t00, tinted September 18337 in the hands of Dr H.
