The above closes the laws ot Fayetteville
so far as contained in Mr Mclver's compila
tion, made up to 12th July 1S2S. Good laws
are wholesome lo the body politic, as good
food is necessary to sustain the functions ot
the human system ; but good laws but in
differently administered, or not enforced at
all, are of no avail except with the good citi
zen, who only desires lo know what the law
is, to conform to it.
It will bo seen that there are daily and
houtly violations of our municipal laws, of
which no cognizance is taken. It is the
duty 'of the law makers to give publicity to
the laws, and the duly of the citizens to make
themselves acquainted with them ; and it is
the duty of the officers oi the law to see that
they be promptly enforced.
LIBERAL! The Fayetteville Observer
calls it a " liberal proposition " which the
British are said to have made, to wit : That
if the Oregon boundary cauuot be adjusted by
thefegotiators, the British propose thai the
subject be referred to any European sovereign
who may be selected by the United States ;
and his decision to be final between lhe pai ties!
Yes that is very liberal ! The Fayetteville
Observer, aud other prints of the same kidney,
edited by Englishmen, such as Ihe National
Intelligencer and Raleigh Register, would not
only be that liberal, but they would, beyond a
doubt, give the teiritory of Oregon in fee sim
ple to Great Britain.-, Such is the true senti
ment of their heat Is, we have uol a doubt, but
they are afraid to express it. They are
anxious for a little royalty in Ihe West lo neu
tralize the Democracy, which ihey see is po
overpowering for whiggery ; and if they only

GEN. DUFF GREEN.
As the rupture between President JooeavJ
and the late U. S. Consul at Galveston, has
excited considerable public curiosity, ihe fol
lowing letter, explanatory of lhe quarrel, will
no doubt be interesting :
From tha Gsiveston News, Feb. 7.

Geutlemen : I see from the newspapers that
there is much speculation hh to the difficulty
between lhe Presideut and Gen. Duff Green.
1 was oue of those with whom the lattei con
sulted, and lo -whom he explained most fully
his plans. ' When in Mexico be obtained a
copy nf the Mortgage given by the Govern
ment of Mexico to Ecglish bondholders, .for
one hundred and seventy millions of acres
of laad in Texas, Cbihuhua, New Mexico,
Sou ora, and the Califoroiss ; twenty-five mil
lions tf which are to be located near the At
lantic,, FWho alt that fie could learn, he was
of opinion thai Santa Anna, sustained by the
British influence in- Mexico, would prevail.
At ihe request of tbS Chairman of the com
mitter, Geu. Green, prepared a report ex
planatory of bis views, and it tre jepou the
occasion of submitting it to the President,
that the misqnder sta nding, which led lor the
President's prclamaliou, took place. -
On the evening previous, in a casual con
versation at bis room, be expressed lhe opin
ion, that independence without annexation,
would 7 neragsar il v lead , to the atboiition of
slavery in this country. A gentleman pre
sent retnat ked, (bat be bad bef ecaorj the

Duel. The Savannah Republican of
Tuesday last says : ' From information re
ceived from Augusta last evening, we learn
that an affair of honor took place near that
city between Mr John Parllow of Abbeville
district, and Mr Burton of Laurens district,
S. Carolina. The parties fought 'with muskets
at ten paces, and .Mr. Burton was killed.''
