Cook, at Ashboro, in which he says: - Randolph has done her duty nobly in reference to sub scription to the Plank Road has done all we asked be yond what we expected. Major McRae and myself will attend a large meeting at Watson' Bridge on the 31st. Consider the full amount of individual subscription of $80,000 secured." ANOTHER letter from a gentleman in Anson, speaking of the Plank Road, says: "There are a few of us in the upper end of Anson who think that the Plank Road from Fayetteville to Salisbury must come the old county line road from Drowning Oeek to Pee Dee, the tfividing line be tween Montgomery and Richmond; then through a small part of the upper end of to come Gen. Taylor is said to be a modest man: if he is, he must have blushed blue when our hero plied him with a full paragraph of eulogy, and told him that he could speak to him " long and earnestly," of his illustrious self, if time not modesty would permit! The General was particular to tell them in his reply, that he had spent 40 years of his life in a camp! (He either thought the delegates were green, or else he forgot the contents of his 40 campaign letters, and the burden of 20 speeches.) However, as they had given him some beef, be thought he must give them a bone; so he told them that he would cordially co-operate tcith Congress in any measures for the relief of their rapidly growing commerce." So here is an avowal that no matter what sort Anson, on Rocky River, and crossing said ! of b,u appropriating no matter how much river at VV'mneld's Ford, 7 miles from its j money Congress may pass, he will co-operate, mouth, in a direct course; thence by Albe- Verv well5 il wil1 or,1J he sticking to his text if marie to Salisbury.

BANK OF FAYETTEVILLE. The subscription books of this company will be closed to-duy; and the requisite amount hav ing been subscribed, we presume the meeting of t he stockholders for organization, will be held in a very short time, and the Bank put in opera ation as early as possible. This will be in fact, the Bank of Fayetteville"' for the subscriptions out of the town and vicini ty, are sm:ill. One of our citizens, James Kyle, Esq., subscribed 20,000 of the stock, one-filth of the whole amount necessary to put the Bank in operation. Thirteen thousand have been sub scribed in Washington, but nothing worth nam ing iri other places. DISTRICT CONVENTION. We see by the 1 .st Raleigh Standard, fh .t a c.

Alter the decision of Gc.i. Shields' case, the proceedings of the Senate,, which were exceed ingly few, in open session, were of no public im portance. Whitever in y !uve occurred in se cret session in reg.ird to -confirmations or other matters, has not yet transpired by authority. No business of a public nature was done, ex cept such as appertained idone to the Seiate, not requiring the concurrence of the House. fjO- A man named Mann h .s been tried, con victed and twice whipped "on the bare buck1 for passing counterfeit money, in Richmond county. His two accomplices, who gave bail, forfeited their recognizance. That is the way justice is eluded. fjtj- We have received from Mr Loring, editor of the Wilmington Commercial, a pamphlet copy of an address delivered by him before St. John's Lodge of " Free and accepted Masons," on St John's day. It is a very excellent and appro priate address. MrLoring touches the subject of the exclusion of women from Free Masonry. This is a point of some little interest at present, from the fact th.it some of the secret Societies are discussing the propriety of having female lodges, as appears by some of the newspapers. Mr L. says that the " operations of Masonry are ur.suited to the hab its of the female sex." That is a very proper re mark ; for who would think of subjecting a lady to the awkward and unbecoming feat of climbing a greasy pole some ten feet high ; or riding bare backed on a huge goat, w ith the wool off and the kin greased. Then the operation of hanging the dead fall the drop and the biff sword and all this, too, of a cold winter night! Why it would give a lady the dumb ague ! Besides that, the scandal" of the thing Mr Loring says would be disreputable to the Lodges People would talk, and make uncharitable re- .a ! marks, and suggest now sucn anu such a one looked as she climbed up the pole, or how she fell as the goat tilted her on", &.c. &.C . We think it would be decidedly improper for women to be Masons. QCJ- It has been asserted by sorrx of the papers that Mr Whitcomb, U. S. Senator from Indiana, is a free soil democrat. The Washington Union corrects the statement by authority of Mr Whit comb, and says that he is a radical democrat,, and does not, and never did sympathize with the movements of the freesoilers." . 09- Robert Hildreth, tried for the murder of Wm. Taylor, in Anson County, on the 5th Sep tember, was convicted at Richmond, Court. He appealed to-the Supreme Court. Villainy has many loophole through' -which, tp eVtiape, iu thi country. ' " ' That was manly in comparison with the puerile flattery of the committee. If you lov me, you need not tell me of it actions speak stronger than words. The General concluded by telling the dele gates to say to the people of their great country about Buffalo, that he wished not only as Henri the 4th did, that they might have a fowl in the pot on every Sunday, but a piece of beef every day. This way of lugging presents to Washington for Presidents, and audaciously asking a quid pro quo an equivalent is getting entirely too com mon iu our Republic. But the whigs are great at it. Whenever they get a President, they are stuffing him, or dressing him, or furnishing his house, constantly. And do they do it simply be cause they love him? No! They unblushingly ask the leward ! The Constitution very wisely provides against the President receiving presents of any kind from foreign potentates; and it seems to us that it is high time it was so amended so as to prohibit sectional gifts to accomplish sectional purposes. MR. BENTON. A correspondent of the Bal timore Argus says that a complete breach has been effected between Mr Benton and the demo cratic party. At a conference held by the demo cratic members, it was decided, he says, thnt there should no longer be any confidence placed in Mr Benton. This is not a matter to be won dered at, however much it miht be regretted. Mr Henton's mind seems to hive been most strangely perverted and weakened for several years back. His term in the Senate is about to expire, and there is said to be much opposition to his reappointment, by t he democrats of Mis souri. Another correspondent s ivs that Mr Benton, fe.uing the los cf his pLce in the Senate, which he holds us dear as the ;ipple of his eye, has de termined to abandon his . trip to California, and instead, to canvass the State of Missouri in de fence of his" Senatorial course. In which de fence, it is said, he will boldly take the ground of the non-extension of slavery to the new ter ritories, &.c. &.c We cannot but think that Mr Eenton's days of usefulness are past; and it would no doubt be better for him and for the country, that he should retire from public life while the public yet en tertains some respect tor the talent and industry of his past services. Another correspondent, writing from Wash ington, says that a few days ago, Mr Benton, in executive session of the Senate, offered a resolu tion c .lling for further investigation in regard to the protocol, with a view to settling the ques tion whether it is binding iu its effects. On this question he is said to have made another long speech, animadverting harshly on the adminis tration of Mr Polk. Of course, it all ended in smoke; and possibly was onlv intended as a time killer. ' THE NEGOTIATION FOR CUBA. ' A month or two ago, an inquiry was 'made in Congress about a certain alledged negotiation be tween the United States and Spain for Cuba? but nothing was elicited in any way showing that any steps had been taken by the American govern ment towards the purchase of that island. Previous to that.it had appeared in the debates f the British Parliament that some English statesman was starting a project to get Cuba into the clutches of the British government on pay ment for debts due from Spain to Englishmen. However, more recently, it was stated official ly in the Spanish Cortes, or Legislature, or Con gress, that no proposition for negotiation coa- cerning Cuba had been made by the U. States. This was supposed to have settled the question. But within a few days, along article has appear ed in the Charleston Courier, signed by Thomas Caute Reynolds, who says he Wus Secretary f Legation at Madrid, under Mr Saunders, the Minister Plenipotentiary, in which Mr Reynolds makes it appear, if what he says be true, that there was an attempt at negotiation on the part of Mr Saunders. We.do not know anything of Mr Reynolds; but the tone of his communication bears evidence of spite and malice, which are to be accounted for by the fact that Mr R. was dismissed or recalled from the Legation, at the instigation of Mr Saunders ; but for what reason, we know not. Of course it was satisfactory to Mr Saunders. Mr Reynolds, however, endeavors, we think," to leave the impression that he stood much higher, and was a much greater man at Madrid than was the Minister Plenipotentiary himself. Mr Reyuolds' excuse for appearing in public on the subject is a little ridiculous; for his name ha? been used to an extremely limited extent in anything that has been said on the Cuba question; and the conclusion is that his only object . in writing his communication is to vent his spleen on Mr Saunders for requesting his recall, and on the Executive for acceding to it. The first dash he makes at Mr Saunders, he charges him with going to France to live five months and leaving him (Mr Reynolds) with limited powers and vague instructions, in charge of the affairs of the Legation. So, about two months after Mr Saunders had been- in France, Mr Reynolds wrote to him concerning the mover ments going on in regard to Cuba, and informed him that he had taken measures to protect the interests of the U. States, &.c. To this Mr Saun ders replied that he was glad to hear it; and that " seoner than the English should get any lien on Cuba, he (Gen. Saunders) would stipulate for the United States to guarantee in some way the pay ment of the debt due from Spain to English capitalists on havinga mortgage on Cuba." Seventeen days afterwards, Mr Reynolds re ceived another letter from Mr Saunders, in which Mr S. says that he fears the matter is about to be pressed upon the Spanish government by the British bondholders; and if he (Mr S.) had iull confidence in Mr Buchanan, American Secretary of State, on the subject of Cuba, he would write to him; but as he had not, he would act orr iris general instructions. ; - sv, Mr Reynolds quotes from a letter from Mf'S.,' to Mr Buchanan, written six days after the abve, in which Mr S. tellb Mr Buchanan thathe'has " greater confidence in the Cabinet, and should like to hear Mr Buchanan's views. Mr Reynolds also charges Mr Polk with send ing instructions to the Minister at London on the subject of the Oregon question, which instruc tions departed materially from the position ta ken in the official correspondence of the Depart ment of State! This we believe to be a malicious story, of a piece with Stevns' protocol story. There is no motive for any such proceeding. . Mr Reynolds says that the debt due to the British bondholders from Spain is three hundred and fifty millions. Mr Reynolds dwells long on the fact of Mr Saunders' unacquaintance with the Spanish lan guage, and his retired life in Madrid, &c. all with a view of casting ridicule on Mr S. And he is ulso carelul to give the reader plenty of room to believe that he (Mr Reynolds) was high in the confidence of the whole Spanish Court and nation ! Such is thevvorld! What pictures men's pride or malice can make them draw ! 0C? The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph publishes an Address of Messrs Cobb, Boyd, Clarke and Lumpkin, (the first and last named being Geor gia members, Boyd and Clark of Kentucky) to their constituents, in which these gentlemen at tempt to palliate their course in not signing tke southern sddress. The Telegraph accompanies the address with a criticism of the grounds of defence assumed by those gentlemen ; and really, the way he strips the flimsey arguments from it, and leaves naked deformity, with hardly plausi bility to keep it in countenance, must be inorti fying to those gentlemen. The Telegraph thinks that the "critics of the ballot box will judge this apology to be as in complete and unsatisfactory" as they alledge the southern address to be. Our North Carolinians have not been green enough to publish an address to palliate their delinquency. Those of them who may be candi dates again, ought to be held to strict account ability before the people; for it appears to us that they can oflier no excuse that will not still leave it a bitter pill to vote for them. - - .

Since my last," but little of a local na ture has occurred Tn our goodly city, -the acts ot our new .administration "being, the principal topic, and these are applauded or condemned, just as the interests of the parties or their friends are advanced. A very extraordinary advertisement has been published in the German papers in JNew ork.

This is carrying republicanism a little too far.

An estimate in the New York papers of the number of persons who have sailed for California, makes 17,000; 12,000 of whom went by way of Cape Horn. The number of vessels, 270. . The number that are supposed to have gone over the land route, are estimated at about 3,000. Thirestimate is no doubt very imperfect. If it is within three or four thousand of the true number, it is as near as could be expected. CALIFORNIA. The papers continue to pub lish letters from California; but they generally contain only the old narratives that everybody have read. A letter from San Francisco, dated Dec. 2Gth, is about as late as any we see. It gives the price of Flour at $12, a reduction of one-half since the writer last wrote. Lumber, he says advances in price, instead of receding. The great influx of persons from all quarters gives great stimulous to housebuilding, and notwithstanding the enor mous rents, it is difficult for many to get places to sleep. $100 to $125 per thousand feet. The rainy season, he said, had commenced, and the snow on the ridge was impeding the digging operations, which would be materially suspend ed for -two or three months. This writer thinks that emigration from all parts of the world will be so great, that prices of every thing will keep high for a year or two. If so, why could not our North Carolina pine owners make money by shipping lumber to that country? If the demand is so great, certainly prices in this country ought to advance some. The population of San Francisco, he says, is orderly, except when a large party arrives from the mines with plenty of gold, when a dust is generally kicked up.

The recent news from Canada evinces a Strong feeling by the people of that country to sever the bonds that bind and make them hewers of wood and drawers of water " to her Majesty, Queen Victoria, W.io, by the way, is doubtless a verv charming dear little creature, with whom any of we sovereigns could spend a few hours very agreeably not more so, how ever, than we could with some of the fair and charming girls of our own favored clime for most of us love to : ; but we must stop this enticing subject and the subjects of it, and resume the topic of Canadian affairs. Since the abortive attempt at revolution in 1 837-' 8, a republican spirit has been quietly at work, and it is this spirit that now begins to give signs of life; the events that have occurred within the last year in Europe, and more particularly late acts of the English rulers in Canadian affairs, have in a great degree tended to mature this re publican spirit sooner than it ought or otherwise might have done. Whether as the "lone star" of the north or as one of our own constellation, we de sire, as a republican, to see the Canadians enjoying the blessings and sweets of liber ty; but sucli changes cannot be made in the twinkling of an eye. This sudden transit is the great stumbling block of re volutions; reaction is the consequence oi such attempts; witness the change of this government, read the history of the colo nies for ten years previous to the declara j - . .... lion oi independence, anil it will be seen r- - . . - now, anu from what small bcixiiiinnirs, it commenced, moving slow but sure, until the eloquence of a Henry and his coin patriots, set the ball of revolution in motion; and even then it rolled but slowly, nor was it matured until all the circumstances were calmly and dispassionately weighed and considered. Such must be the way with Canada; such a course will alone insure success; from small beginnings originate all sreat events, ' great oaks," &c, you know. Our authorities have taken the necessary steps to observe our neutrality in - the matter; they have, however, the sympathies of all good repub'icans- We may expect shortly to hear of hoards of red coats " being sent over to quell the " rebels." We had quite a fire yesterday (Sunday) evening.
