The unfortunate schism in the before untt Vd and powerful Church of the Methodist, wbkb resulted from the preponderance of an ultra abolition spirit iu the 'body constituting the last General Convention in this city, hat, it appear, scarcely begun yet to develops the deplorable consequence which will surely re sult from that un fort u mite cvout. Already he illiberal spirit which was then constituted a ruling element of the Church, js showing it self at the South in retaliation cf the wrong then committed: and from the Church of Christ we hear the voice of anger, and threats of violence and outrage. . A short time since, the Commonwealth " a prominent Methodist paper published at Frankfoit, Ky. gave a most unequivocal warning to the "Church North," that-it would be at their personal peril if its members ventured amongst, and attempted to preach to, those who sat in the sanctuaries of the Church South;" that in the event of such a provocation, the latter would certainly take redress into their own hand. We could not, at the time, regard thi Lynch-like ad monition as auy thing more than a gratuitous assumption of some fierce southern chain pion, "ardent a the Southern suo could make him," iu favor of the perpetuity of uegro bondage ; but subsequent occurences have proved it to be no empty vauut. The recent events at Patkeraburg, Va., arising from tho capture and imprisonment of several Ohioans caught iu the act of entic ing away Virginia slaves, are familiar to our readers. They have, it would appear, led to an aggravated ill-feeling, mutual toward each other on the part of the slaveholders of ihnoue State and the abolitionists of the other. Thi result 13 very natural and was to be expected. It was a result that could not have been avoid ed, by any exertions that could be put forth by either party ; but for that reason, all that could be done to modify the evil, to soften the mutual acerbation of feeling and to facilitate tho restoration of harmony between two neigh boring communities of a common country, should have been all the more vigorously prosecuted on both sides for the accomplish ment of that desirable consummation, and the promotion of the common good. Whether this duty lus been performed by either of the parties counected with the occurrences "to which we have alluded, we shall leave the reader to judge for himself from tho fact which ae all that we propose to give. . They are in substance as follows: The Rev A. QllU IIIG UCI UUtil LIIIIJIJ, VSIIH ITJtTIII- ndists, were sent by the Ohio Conference to Puikersburg to pi each the gospel, the bounds of the Ohio Conference iucludiug Packers burg. But the people of the latter place were resolved that no preacher from the precincts of the ' Church North " should preach the gospel among them. A public meeting of the citizens, comprising nearly alt the Methodists of the place, whs held, and the following reso lution? were unanimously adopted and pub lished : Rotolvarl. That we are not bounlhy.. auv law, rnoia! or conventional, to submit to these thing, but feel that wo are imperatively called on by a high sense of duty,-and after due de liberation on the uotoiious facts of the caPj to remove these men from amongst us and beyond the limits of the Commonwealth. Resolved, That a committee of three be appointed by the Chair, whose duty it shall be to uotify Rev A. Brown and Rev John Dil lon, that iu the deliberate judgment of this meeting, their further continuance here is in compatible with the safety, peace and order, of this community, and that ibis meetiug ad vise them forthwith to leave the State. The meeting then adjourned till 3 o'clock to await tho report of this committee. And at 3 o'clock, Mr George Neale, jr., from the committee of three, reported that they had waited on Mr Dillon, aud that he requested time to deliberate ou his reply. Whereupon it was unanimously ' Resolved, That he be allowed until Satur day morning next to meke his arrangements . to leave the State, and thai a committee ol forty, be appointed whose duty if aftalr be to see that the Rev Mr Dillon withdraws from the State by that period ; and, iu case of his failure, to take such measures as shall cause him to do so. J. H. NEAL, Ch'u. M. J. LiTTr-EBODr, Jr., Sec'ry. Monday, September 22. Thee sentiments, and this language, it will be observed, were uttered by actual prac tical members of the Methodist Church toward p;tforg of their own denominatroo, between whom and themselves no differenco whatever existed, except that they toleiatcd slavery; while their reverend visitors were under the direction of an ecclesiastical body which did not tolerate it. . Let us not be understood us condemning the action of the meeting. Whether it was right or wroug depends en tirely upon the sufficiency of the causes which fed to the use of such sentiments and terms. It ii the existence of those causes in the church that we deprecate as also the uncbris ti:n aud most unsafe spirit which has intro duced those causes into the high places of the synagogue of Christ's Church. Tne prompt withdrawal of the two clergymeu which fol lowed forthwith, was most commeudable and was well calculated to calm the troubled wa ters which threatened fo involve fbetn in de struction. save tub Pf.ni.ies The people along xarr jr, ...mm meutotd to Camden, IV.

For miles together, there was a regular deposite of cents; and as there were do claimant., lbe e who lived by the way," turned out to gather , up the drippings, and a pretty collect iou" was taken up. For miles there were receiv ers. The road and ruts were trodden close "and even the charcoal men, who invariably sleep on their coal in the progress downward. were wide awake. It appears that a bag con taining ten thousand cents, had been put on the top of a stage, and after some shaking, either the string broke, or a hole Was worn. Ooe ol the peunies, not haying any particular atlachmeut to the sack, popped out, and then another went, and so each followed bis file leader, until the bag wa empty and Ibe road well liued Philadelphia V. S Gatette, Mr Cubbing's Lectures uroN he Chi nese. In the first of these lectures delivered before the Newburyport XyceuaiJ last week, Mr Cashing ind Tested ibe Chines from many oft he prejudices which exist agaiust tbem with all-duiaut people. ,He declared them to be ingenious and industrious, and a large class of them learned men. Books be fouud as numerous as in Europe, oud the cat alogue ol a single library, id his possession, occupied ten volumes. He said, that the fa tal error of the Cbiuese has been in giving too epicurean a character to their habits aud theii government. One illustration of this cited was the fact that at the close of all letters to one another, the writteu salutation is "I wish you tranquility and promotion." They lack only military skill aud discipline to make them a poivetful nation, capable of repelling inva- stott or dt overrunning contiguous countries ; for no men are braver, or die mure fearlessly in the tanks. From the tone of Mr Cushing's remarks we should infer that he supposed they wotild ultimately attain this military skill and dtscipliue. Mr, C. remarked that the fate of the Chinese should be a warning to those utopiau dreamers among us, who would devote all intellectual and physical efibit to the arts of peace, to the extinction of that martial spirit without which independence can nevci be maintained.- We give the following abstract from the Newburypnit Herald, of the other parts of the lecture : Jv Y True Sitn. China does not need any foreign trade. W ithiu her owu territory he produces every thing requisite for the wants of her population. The Imperial Commissioners repeatedly as sured Mr C. that this commerce from tho out set had been literally forced upon them by the English aud Americans adversely to the in terests and wishes of the Chinese government aud people.

Thev auuuallv publish a Red Book, similar to our Blue Book, giving tbe uames and emoluments of all public officers. In regard to the population of Chioa, Mr Cushing seems to be of opinion that the Chi nese census does tiot overrate the number, aud that the three huudred aud filly millions which they claim, is not far from the true num ber. The laud and tbe Water of a country, as large as Europe, teems with swarming masses living alike in boats ou the rivers and in houses, in the southern pait of the country two crops a year are produced, and She poorer classes subsist on a little rice,- and the flesh of dogs, cats, rats, &c. To tho cities and . .1 . .. ; .L . i iuwus mere are no carriage ways, me sireeis, urti uuiy narrow iooi pains, anu uo nurses or other beasts of builhcu are kept to require large range of pasturage. The population is crowded into the narrowest I if rr its, by a loog succession of ages of peace and industry. The compensation asked by the servants which Mr C, iu his character of American Ambassador, employed, was Only five dollars a mouth, and out of this they found their. owu food aud clothing. . I . e -l i r Ibe Chinese have long been acquainted with all tho improvements iu the an, upon which the Eiifropeuus prido themselves as be ing tho inventors, with the exception ouly ol the steam engine. Machiuerv has not been introduced amongst them, because of the ef fects it would produce among such a crowded population, by throwing immense numbers of . mm nniidicroll-men out oi employment. Hence the success with which English and Ameri can manufactures are sold there, notwhhstand ing the cheapness of Chiuese labor. Mr C. intimated the possibility that the introduction of these foreign manufactures iu the country, might, at some future day, produce the same effect. That-4 British Fleet" a Secret Ex pedition. The fact, brought by the lat steamer, that that Experimental Squadron ' had returned to Coik tiear two mouths, ru connection with the lotlowins extracts from Bell's London VVovkly Messenger, goes far toward Confirming the account we received aud published near a month since relative to the force,- character nnd purpose's of the Brit ish fleet seen by a vessel lately arrived at ibis port.

" It is ihus the object of 3'r R Peel," says our authority, gradual- ly and .ecretly to assemble a considerable na- val force in the Mexicau seas, which is to act as occasion may arise and, at alt eveuts, to prevent any blockade by the American navy, should the Mexican government proceed fur- tber in their declaration of war.'

A few years, since, wheu, amid the evils of a most iuidous abundance ol paper money andao uu natural scarcity of coin, the dem ocratic party persisted iu purifying the cur rency by discountenancing the -multifarious promises of corporate speculators, and en couraging the inciease of the national coin age, the whole commercial world rang with opprobrious epithets, bestowed upon the great leaders of the people, for their alleged folly in supposing that specie was preferable to paper. The gold bill of 1834 was carried iu the face of the strongest opposition itw object being to eucouiage the import, and, to retain a ne cessary quantity, of gold in the couutry. No measure was ever more perseveringly reviled than the measure of Col. Benton to establish branch mint", to give the imported gold an American form, iu which it could circulate freely aud fdrhiliarly among the people. Those measures Have served to assUt in more than doubling the quantity of natioual coin iu cir culation, ahd the quautity of specie in the country has become as large as is necessary. Now,' however, the opponents of a specie currency have changed their note, and noth ing but specie will suit then. The "Natiou al Intelligencer" of a late date spoke as fol lows : It is uite clear, we think, that tbe safest and most solid basilicas for us would be to make our exports exceed our imports ; because the balance, whatever it may be, will come to us in coin : that is to say, if, in 1846, we export one hundred and fitly million?, and import only one hundred mil lion?, the balance of fifty millions due vs by the resi due of the world xoill be receited in the hard,' which should be as welcome to the locofocos as the whig. But if tho prtrty in power disturb the tariff, the re verse trill be the case, and the consequence may be another commercial and financial revulsion, per haps us disastrous as that ot 1S37 which may Hrayen forefend."

' THAT RAILROAD It will be seen by the following article from the Raleigh Stand ard,, that according to the estimate of one skilled) in anch matters, tho amount named in this paper, as necenary to build a railroaif from Raleigh to Fayette villa, was not so fal out of the way as the editor of the Standard's $600,000 estimate. We hope no jeatbiisies will be allowed to disturb the extension of the Raleigh and Gaston road to this place ; and we feel assured,' from what we can learn, that it is only necessary for Raleigh to com mence ihe work tn earnest, and give the peo ple of this section the word to M go ahead in order to have the necessary amounts sub scribed iu Fayetteville and its vicinity. One prUminetit gentleman here' says he will sub scribe to tbe amount of half his real estate, such is his couviction of tbe value of the improvement to that species of ropet(y. The following is the article in the Staudard of the 13th iosl : Railroad to FAYtTTE-mtfc. An able correspondent iu the last Carolinian advo ca'es the building of a Railroad from Fayette ville to Warsaw, iu Duplin, so as- to unite with the Wilmington Road, aud seems to ibrow cold water upon ihe proposed Rood be tween Raleigh and Fayelt6i!le. Ho says : "Tbe people of Raleigh may tell us fluttering tales of the advantages we should receive, by establishing ibis road, but who that has watched the course of things, can for a mo ment suppose that such tales will bo verified?" Indeed, from the whole scope and tone of the writer, we should say ho bad bis ye mote immediately directed to a Turnpike from Fay- etteville to the West. This, he thiiiR. would 4 Kelp miich td secitre to Fayetteville a gdd portion of the trade of the State." Now, we do not pretend to speak for the capitalists of Raleigh, nor do we otier any thing in Ihe shape of a reply to Ihe correspondent -just mentioned ; but one thing, wo will say, and lhat is, that the lio'ad, m our opiniou, will most ceitaiuly go ou, lifter a while within what time we do not venture to predict to ibe South Carolina Hue, aud thai it is for the people of Faettevilh to say whether they will have' it go by their doors or ftof. We have been politely furnkfteoj by d geri tlemau mos competent to make it, with ah estimate of the probable cost of a Rail Road between this place and Fayetteville, which we Say before our readers : Eslinlalk tif tHe prbbabte co$t of building a Railroad from Raleigh to Fayetteville ; Si&ly miles: Grading. 7f,5!j"5 ynrds excavation arid embankment $71,595 00 $71,595 00 Superstructure. 650,00!) feet of Railing 2:,450 CO 63,360 Sills 9,008 00 126,: 20 Keys 0 Lajing'fuperstructore, 7,5U0 00 49,529 50 Ikon, &c. 960 tons Iron 72,0f0 00 IlOX) kes of Spikta 5 000 00 39.000 J.iint Plates 5,5)0 f-0 Laying lli iron, l,50C 0J S?,C0V 00 BridgcS, Bridges, inchidm Ma tvtiry 52,00 00 EniLincerin cxpmsts 10,666 0 Salaries, &c. 8, 00 00 Freight 4,000 00 Shops ft.

Ceifrfrniy the above estimate is quite low, aud we are assured by the getilleinaii who made it, that it is vt fair one iu every respect, and that, in bis opinion, it will be found so ou trial. This Road when completed, will make, with the Raleigh and Gatou road, now in market, a line ot 14fO mile ; and should the tsrfter be bought.. fof $400,000, the stock of the two roads wotrM,- itt the' opinion of good judges, be asgCod as any iu the Union. We are informed by a gentleman conversant with the fjcts, that it seems to have been general ly overlooked in discussing this subject, that the whole oi the efrince from Fox's iflant!s in tbe Cape Fear to Fayetteville, is already spraded, and will require scarcely any expenditure to make it answer Ihe purpose.

A publication known Hunt's Merchant' Hagagioe, aaya that tbe trade dt the JJnited State with Mexico and South America, has deceased T5 per cant ainea 1835 ; and the editor, (who i no partisan) attribute it to the cash duties, and the present tariff The following extracts from that work, are interesting : - - Tbe existing law are such a to work out the total rtiin of our intercourse with the West Indie i as for instance, nearly all tbe mo lasses made in the island of Cuba, Porto Rico, and the Dutch : rnaio, amounting to 150,000 and 1 60,000 hogshead, is imported into the United States, and a greater part of It is distilled into spirits, which is exported to foreign countries. This tiride employs a great tonnage; eastern vessel ' carry out lumber, tixb, ec ; which ii exchanged for this molasses. The rtiolases is generally abld iu Cuba for what it will fetch. Hi cost Is ac counted nothing by the planter. The aver age price is 5 cents per galton, and cos, duly paid, here, 25 cents. Tbe whole trade turns upou the drawback allowed on tbe spirits ex ported. The IdrifTof 1842 cdflctsi bdwever, that a fJriittbdck of 3 cetttJ per gtillon shall be allowed on spirits distilled from foreign mo lasses until January, 1843, when it hall be reduced 1 cent per gallon, and one ccttt an nually thereafter, until the whole is discon tinued. Hence the drawback is now 2 cents per gallon. The effect of this duty oh molas ses without the drawback on the spirits, is to transfer the manufacture of the latter to Cuba, to deptive the eastern country of the sale of its lumber and fish, aud to give to the British North American colonies, Afiica and the Mediterranean pols, the trade of supplying Cuba with that which she buy in exchange for the spirits rtow ftfrnlrlea by the .United States. The eastern vessels cany lumber and fish to Cuba, exchange it for molasses, which is manufactured iu New Kugland. and the spirits sold to the British NoMh American colonics. Without a drawback, tho colonies will send their fish aud lumber to Cuba, and procure spirits direct. The increase of Span ish vessels in the potts of New Bruuswick i an instance of this."

Phila. Ledger. Railroads. -The Kaluigh and Fayette ville papers continue to discuss the subject of a Railroad between the two cities. The estimated cost of such a road is set down at $5 1,290 ; or per mile, $5 S54, including buildings and tnncKrnery. . This a" low esti mate, but is thought lit be a fair one. When completed, in connect ion wrfh the Gaston and Raleigh Road, now in market, and which it is supposed may be purchased for about $400,000, will given continuous line of 140 miles and it is believed would be us good Stock as any in the Union.
