Wm H. Baynci Editor and Proprietor.
FAYETTEVILLE, JT. C.
OCTOBER 27, 1049.
00- The editor of the Carolinian expects to be
at Sampson Superior Court, where he hopes to
haTe a settlement with those indebted to him.
0&-Tbo sxtraordlnary Httle bipeds, the learned cana
ries, will be exhibited to-day. (See adrertiaement.) They
afford a wonderful illustration of the control man can ex
ercise orer other creatures, as well as the surprising ca
pacity ef the creature to learn.
PLANK ROAD. We are informed by the Pre
sident that there are about 60 hands employed
on the first ten miles of the Road, and thart the
Clearing and grading will be so nearly completed
that the hands from each ead will meet, or at
least be in hearing of each other, by the evening
of to-day. Th ere are about 120,000 feet of lum
ber delivered, and more arriving everyday.
A large quantity of lumber will be brought to
Fayetteville by the river, and must be hauled
from thence by teams. From the scarcity of
wagons here now, in proportion to the hauling,
those in the country who have teams, might find
employment for them. We heard of two or three
that are coming from Davi Json county.
OCj- Eighteen American gentlemen, who were
in Paris at the time of the demand of Czar
Nicholas upon the Sultan of Turkey for the sur
render of the Hungarian leaders, addressed an
appeal to the American Minister at Constantino
ple, to use all his influence and the influence of
his government to sustain the Sultan in his good
resolution, not to accede to the demand. But
the minister having been recalled by the Taylor
administration, had left.
THE CENSUS of South Carolina has recently
been taken by siuthority of the Stiite. It shows
a white population of $'2S0,3S5. The number ol
negroes was not taken.
. SULPHUR SPRINGS, N. C Mr Deaver, the
proprietor f these Springs, makes a statement
in the Ashville Messenger, by which it appears
that during the past summer, he has had 647
boarders at his Springs. Of these there were 57
from North Carolina, 32 from Georgia, 10 from
Alabama, 7 from Tennessee, 3 from Washington
city, 2 from Kentucky, 2 from Baltimore, and
from New York, New Orleans, and Arkansas, one
ech ; the balance, 541 , were from S.Carolina!
THE WIRE BRIDGE suspended over the
Ohio river, at Wheeling, Va., was completed on
the 20th inst.. and Mr Ellet, the architect (the
same who built one recently over Niagara river at
the Falls) rode over it with horse and buggy
amid the firing of ordnance. The people of
Wheeling are delighted with their bridge.
sjlj- The Raleigh Star publishes the Mississippi
resolutions in regard to the Wilmot proviso, and
takes a decided part in their favor. It says "we
are opposed to the Wilmot proviso in every form
and place." Why don't the other whig presses
be ai firm ?
THE RESULT IN GEORGIA.
We learn from the Macon Telegraph that Gov.
Towns' majority is 3416, which is a gain of 2127
votes over his vote in 1847.
In the Senate, democrats 25, whigs 22. In
the House, 67 democrats to 63 wbigs. (
OHIO. Mr Amos E. Wood, democrat, has
been elected to Congress in place of Mr Dickin
son, (also democrat) deceased.
It is also fully ascertained, says the Washing
ton Union, that there is a small democratic ma
jority in both Houses of the Ohio Legislature
A rare case, and looks bad for whiggery.
MISSISSIPPI. A letter to the editor from
De Kalb, Miss., says :
Our elections come off soon. The
democratic ticket will be carried through
out the State, except in this (the fourth)
District, of which there is some doubt.
McWilli and Gray are the candidates.
The district is democratic, but Gray being
very popular, will carry more than his
party vote in the eastern counties; but the
election will be very close."
CONNECTICUT. The Hartford Times
gives returns from 79 towns, of the elec
tion held on the 1st inst. Of that number
the democrats had gained 19, as compared
with the last fall election. Fifty towns
had elected democratic officers, and 24 on
ly whigs. Tliree towns were divided.
East IJartfotd and Wethersfield have each
elected democratic assessors and board of
relief, which are gains from last year. In
Bristol a liberal ticket " was elected
last year, whig Union.
ftJ By speakrftg of this paper as The Anson
county Argus," does the proprietor of the Loeo
foco sheet at Fayetteville, mean to insinuate that
the Argus has a less general circulation, or pre
FASHIONABLE LIFE.

A RAILROAD MEETING was held a few
weeks ago at Hendersonville, N. C, says the
Ashville Messenger, in regard to the Greenville
(S. C.) Railroad. This road is built partly by
paying for stock in work and materials. The
subscriptions at this meeting were $13,000. This
road, says the Messenger, is entirely in South
Carolina, connecting Columbia and Greenville,
and yet.here are $13,000 subscribed by the county
of Henderson, to help to build it to Greenville,
which is probably within 25 miles of Henderson
ville the county scat of Henderson.
ANOTHER MEETING, says the Messenger,
was held at Ashville on the 10th inst, to raise
subscriptions, and 18,000 were subscribed. Many
of the old and steady formers, says that paper,
have marched up with great cheerfulness and
liberality.
Ashville is about 50 miles from Greenville,
but the hope of the people of Buncombe is, that
when once completed to Greenville, its great ad
vantage to the farmers of the western Carolinas,
giving a speedy transport to their produce to the
markets of Columbia and Charleston, that it will
soon extend to the mountains, and over them.
$31,000 subscribed in North Carolina to a South
Carolina railroad. We call that neighborly, and
we are jlad to see such liberality.

That is very witty ! very ! Bat it would have
been much more so if he had put it in Latin.
The editor takes a hint very well. We might
have supposed that Anson was peopled by the
Latini, as much as the Argus was printed gen
erally in Latin, a language not much used by the
masses, and when much used by editors, is con
sidered an evidence either of pedantry, or that
hi s paper is only intended for a few doctors and
lawyers, or now and then a learned professor.
We never assumed to give the humble "North
Carolinian " " a grand and imposing appear
ance." It would then have misrepresented its
State and people. We leave grandeur, &.C. to
be displayed by those who have to make up in
that way their lack of more useful traits. Our
sheet " appears to be big enough for the little
town of Fayetteville, and our aim is to make it
useful to its patrons, rather than to furnish them
a large sheet fit only for waste paper, Of course
it is necessary that the large commercial city of
Wadesboro should have a very large newspaper,
and a good deal ef Latin in it. We are not so
imposing." If we live on Cross Creek, we are
thankful that we are neither cross-eyed nor cross
tempered; nor sit cross-legged at prayers.
The Argus newspaper reminds us of an ex
tensive farm on a sand ridge, where the corn
stalks look like they had the consumption and
the corn all nubbins.

The barque Eureka, which we noticed last
week as having started from Cleaveland, Ohio,
for California, by way of the great lakes and the
St. Lawrence, was found too large to go through
the Welland canal. What will be done with
Mammy and Josh " in that case ?
A stray paragraph in the papers says that a
machine has been invented and patented, that
will unload a wagon "in no time."
0O- We see that the " undivided two-thirds of
the Natural Bridge" in Virginia, is offered for
Sile in Richmond. It must be nearly new,
as Gen. Taylor said it was not built when he
went along there.
THE MORMONS. A part of this religious
sect are located in Covington, Ky., and publish a
small paper. They appear to be highly incensed
at the other Mormons who have settled in the
new territory taken from Mexico, and declare
that those Mormons are conspirators against the
United States; and that they art under an oath
to aenge the death of Joe Smith, their prophet,
who ws killed in the Mormon rumpus some
years ago.
It is all gammon, no doubt.
HURRA FOR ROBESON.
We learn from a friend that a gentleman own
ing a piece of land on Ashpoe Swamp in the low
er part of Robeson county, has raised 90 bushels
of corn to the acre on it. We call that hard to
beat, in this section of country. To be sure we
have heard of 300 bushels to the acre, but we
were not green enough to believe that it could
be done.
STATUE OF MR CALHOUN.
By a communication in the Charleston Mer
cury, we learn that the great American sculptor,
Mr Powers, is accomplishing a statue of Mr Cal
houn. It is expected to be ready for shipment
to this country in a short time. The place of
its erection has not been determined, but will
probably be in Charleston or Columbia. A few
gentlemen of Charleston (the writer says) con
tributed the amount among themselves to pay
for its execution.'
A BAD SIGN. A physician who would place
a tomb stone out for a sign, would be thought
very silly or very eccentric, but we see a drug
gist in Wilmington has a representation of an
urn with his advertisement. It was probably
intended for a mertar and pestle, but we should
call it a mortal pester.
OCJ- The Wilmington Journal says that there
is a family in that place directly descended from
Oliver Cromwell, the Protector.
INTERESTING INTELLIGENCE. The Pa
ris Moniteur, of the 5th instant, states that the
French Government entirely disavows the con
duct of M. Poussin, and announces the appoint
ment of M. Bois le Compt, at present French
Minister at Turin, to be Minister Penipotentiary
at Washington. Wilmington Commercial.
GEORGEY SHOT. The last foreign arrival
brings a report from Vienna that Gen. Georgey
had been shot by a brother of an Austrian officer
whom Georgey had ordered to be shot.

TEMPERANCE STATISTICS.
We learn from the "Spirit of the Age," that
the fourth annual session of the Grand Division
of the Sons of Temperance, met in Raleigh on
Wednesday the 17th inst.
There were 57 representatives from 24 sub
ordinate Divisions. It appeared from the vari
ous reports from 67 Divisions, that the number
of "Sons" in those 67 amounts to 2,500. And
it is estimated that the remaining 13 Divisions
which neglected to report, might swell the num
ber to 3,200. Last October, the whole number
in this State was only 500.
The following are the officers of the Grand
Division for the ensuing term :
JaxneTStTNpis, of Salisbury, G. W. P.
Geo. D. Boggan, of Wadesboro, G. W. A.
A. M. Gorman, of Raleigh, G. S.
J-.ms T.itrhford. " G. T.
Win. T. Shields, of Hillsboro, G. C.
Henry Hardie, of Chapel Hill, G. S.
J M. C. Breaker, ofNewbern, G. Chap l-ir.
Key. S. Pearce, Travelling Agent.
The semi-annual session of the Grand Division
is to be held in Newbern on the fourth Wednesday
ia April next.
AN ADMISSION. In remarking upon the
conduct of the Secretary of State in conducting
the foreign relations of the government, the
Pennsylvanian siys that so palpable are the
blunders of this Department of the Government,
that the New York Courier and Enquirer, which
is a staunch defender of the administration, is
compelled to declare :
"That errors in judgment and errors in policy
are inevitable ; but we freely confess that these
errors have been more numerous, or, at least,
have been rendered more palpable under the ex
isting administration, than that of any of its
predecessors."
GREENS, alias COLLUDS. A correspon
dent of the Wilmington Journal, writing from
Six Runs, Sampson county, tells of a "colewsrt"
(what an outlandish way to express cabbage
by, when every body uses the short, simple,
modest, phonetic word " colluds ') over 7 feet
high, and 41 feet in diameter.
That is the tallest colewort we ever heard of
as we recollect. It would take the " big pot in
m the little one- to cook it, and giant Lambert to
eat it. There cannot be any cholera in that, or
itiever would have grown so great.
John Tyler and family, of Virginia, are at the
Irving House, New York. John Tyler? John
Tyler? Who's John Tylir. Boston Bee, a whig
paper.
Why John Tyler is a tolerably honorable gen
tleman who in 1S40, stooped to make a tool of
the whig party by which to hoist himself into
the Vice Presidency; and at that time was
thought by the whigs to be one of the greatest of
hving men
Tippecanoe
And Tyler too,
, Who but who.
But when the time came round for the whigs
to make a tool of him by making hirn foreswear
his former political faith, he served them as the
gun did the sportsman kicked them ov-r.
CCJ- Charles Napoleon Bonaparte Evans, (what
a log tail our cat's got,) editor of the Milton
Chronicle, (a whig paper that the editor of the
Standard keeps for his amusement) has been ap
pointed Postmaster at Milton, N. C, says the
Hillsborough Recorder. The editor of the Re
corder says: "This is as it should be." In
course it is. " Scratch my back and I'll tickle
your elbow," as the classics have it.
But the Recorder jays " he is honest, capable,
and faithful to the constitution." Well, we will
not question his honesty for his family's sake, if
he has any ; but as to his being capable, if he is
like he used to be, it depends much upon the
state of his equilibrium. As to his being faithful
to the constitution, he has rather over shot the
mark in that regard. The constitution gives ev
ery man a vote, but he tried to rote twice in the
same day; and only got off from prosecution we
believe, by proving that he was in a most disin
terested state of unconsciousness.
" United we stand, divided we fall '."
A wag says this is not true in regard to the
"Sons of Temperance," for the more "Divisions"
they have, the better they stand. Very true, for
every Division is an addition, and multiplies
the whole.
Mr Fremont, (Mr Benton's son-in-law,)
hae accepted the appointment of Commissioner
to run the boundary line between Mexico and
the United States, in place of Mr Weller, who
wan appointed by the last administration, and
who had entered upon his duties.
A PARODY. There is a very touching little
song, the first stanza of which runs so jje thing
like this:
When lovely woman stoops to folly,
And finds too late that men betray.
What art can soothe her melancholy.
Or wipe her shame away."
The Richmond Republican, under the Police
head, where a drunken woman was taken up for
vagrancy, committed the following parody on it :
" When lovely woman stoops to toddy,
And finds too late, that drams betray
What art can hide from any body.
Her tipsiness by night or day."
Health of the City. In will be seen
by the report of the Board of Health that
the deaths for the week ending last Satur
day, were only 24, and that the deaths by
Strangers Fever were but 13. The new
cases now are few or none, and although
the disease may not absolutely disappear
till frost, it has ceased to excite attention.

IMPROVED WAREHOUSE.
We have examined a Warehouse, built
by our enterprising fellow citizen, John A.
Taylor, Esq., back of the Store of Barry,
Bryant & Adams, fronting on Wilkinson's
Alley, having an opening on an eight-foot
alley in the rear. The Warehouse is 68
feet long, 28 feet wide, two stories high j
walls 2 brick thick, firststory ; on the
second 1 5. faced with Wood's best pressed
brick. The first floor is made perfectly
rat-proof, having a concrete floor, 6 inches
thick, with a stone foundation below it.
The doors and window shutters are Iron,
with hooks fastened into stone which runs
through the wall ; the jams of the doors are
protected by bars of iron worked in the
walls ; it is covered with tin and a parapet
wall all round. It was built by J. C. &
R. B. Wood, and is quite a model concern,
being entirely fireproof and rat-proof no
insurance against either being; thought
necessary by Mr Taylor, under whose
supervision it was erected.- Wilmington

REMARKS. Fluur continues scarce, but pri
ces rem jin the s ime. The decline of cotton in
New York has affected this market slightly ; but
it may not last more than a few week. Oi l
corn is in pood demand, and molasses scarce.
The rise in coffee is scaring the housekeepers.
It is a little amusing to see some of the saving
ones going from store to store, and petting n
shock at every pop. There is no alteration m
prices of produce.
