Damon, the negro who killed his master, Tilghman Hunt, suffered the penalty of the law, by hanging, on yesterday. He was attended from the prison by the Rev. A. Gilchrist, Rev. J. H. Wheeler, Rev. J. Depo, and the Sheriff Alex. Johnson, Esq., with his Deputies, escorted by the Fayetteville Riflemen to the place of execu tion. On ascending the gallows, Rev Mr Wheel er gave out a hymn, which was sung, assisted hy the criminal, after which, Rev Mr Gilchrist of fered a fervant prayer. The criminal was then allowed to address the multitude, which he did by calling on all present to look on him as an example. He said he had committed murder and was about to suffer justly. Hi remarks were mostly addressed to the color ed persons present. The Sheriff then read the death warrant, and after bidding the criminal farewell, descended from the gallows, and soon after let the trap fall and the criminal was hurried to eternity. On the evening previous to the execution, the criminal expressed his thanks and grati tude to the jailor, Wm. L. Calais, for his atten tion and kind treatment. rLANK ROAD TO RALEIGH A preliminary meeting of the stockholders of the Fay ettOYille & northern plank road (that is the Raleigh road) was hold yesterday evening. Books of subscription from the various places were handed in, containing many and large conditional subscriptions for instance, some of the subscriptions in Fayetteville were conditioned that should enough be subscribed to build the road to Raleigh, they were to be absolute ; and at various other points conditions were attached. Only about $3000 were absolute. There were two parties represented in the meeting one wishing the road to pass west of the Cape Fear and cross at McNeill's Ferry, the other wanted it to cross near Judge Strange's and pass up on the east side of the River. The Commissioners pledged themselves (the absolute stock holders agreeing) that if an amount exceeding $17,000 was now made absolute, they would close the books and continue, them closed until opened by a vote of the stock holders. Joel Williams, Esq, then subscribed absolutely $17,000. and the books were accordingly closed, arid a general meeting of the stockholders called on the 28th in.-t. to elect officers. &c (as will lie seen by an advertise ment in another column.) The Road will therefore go to Heleigh on the east side of the Cape J-'ear. Telegraphed for the Raleigh Register. ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMER ASIA. NEW YORK, June 5th. 1851. The Steamer Asia arrived at this portion the 4th. bring ing Liverpool dates to the 24th ult. Cotton had declined one-quarter of a penny the week. 41,000 bales. Sales of THE RALEIGH ROUTE Under the new contract. On the first of July coming, the carriage of the tn iils by the new contractors commences. The contract between Fayetteville and Raleigh, we are gratified to know, has been taken by a Fay etteville man, Mr Murdoch McKinnon. This is the first time in the memory of the oldest inhabitant, that such has been the case. We hope Mr McKinnon will realize a reasonable pro fit. He is a man of enterprise and industry, and is the more deserving of encouragement from having made all he has by his own efforts, com mencing, as he did, a poor boy. Mr McKinnon will put good coaches on the line ; he will reduce the fare toRileigh from five to four dollars ; and he will no doubt exert him self to make the staging comfortable and agree able. NEW YORK. The election for 12 Senators of the New York Legislature, in place of 12 dem ocrats who resigned and left their seats to pre vent the consummation of an unconstitutional act, has resulted in the election of a majority of two or three who are in favor of the obnoxious bill. Thus the end will be accomplished. This result, says the Journal of Commerce, is brought about by the votes in the counties along the line of the Canal, where the money will be spent. Money makes great impressions upon ineu's minds. 03- The Georgia Southern Rights Con vention, composed (say the resolutions of the Convention) ofwhigs and democrats, assembled at Milledge ville, on the 2Sth May, and nominated Charles J. .McDonald for Governor of the State. The convention passed resolutions declaring the right of secession, and denying the right of the general government to coerce a State- to re main. And declaring that Congress should obtain the consent of California to the compro mise line of 3d 30. ASSAULTING THE SOLDIERS. A military company in Baltimore was assaulted by a gang f rowdies, while on parade, on the 26th ult. The company came off second best, but no lives were lost. No cause for this assault is given. WEATHER. A very heavy rain here on Tuesday afternoon, with some approach to a stores. Sultry thermometer between SO and 90 most of tlie week in the middle hours of the day. flr- We call the reader's attention to the ar ticle en the first page, about the Sewing Ma chine .

Mr Horner, Door-keeper of the House of Representatives, died at New-Jersey on 27th ult The situation devolves upon Charles W. Stew art, the Assistant Door-Keeper. A "MEAN" MAN'S OPINION. The editor (senior editor we presume) of the Fayetteville Observer is of opinion that it was " rather mean " in the editor of the Carolinian to publish three lines of Mr Webster's speech (as we did last week) and not publish a few lines more that would have entirely contradicted the three lines we published ! For while in the three lines he "regretted the existence of slav ery, and regretted Congress had not the power to act upon it" or abolish it! and prayed-for "some dispensation of Providence to remedy it!" he in the next breath declared that he " holds on to the Constitution of the United States," and will maintain the rights of the south to the utmost of his power ! - A man with one eye can see the inconsistency of these positions. And what has led Daniel Webster into this in consistency ? fjd-The distant view (to him ap parently brightening) of the Presidential chair.' This is the whole secret of the game Daniel Webster has been playing for the last 12 months. And the Washington Union, the democratic or gan, has been duped into a free use of . its col' umns for eulogizing him, and publishing his speeches. It could see nobody hear nobody praise nobody, but Daniel Webster. And Henry Clay was the bosom companion and secret coun sellor of the dotard editor Ritchie! and we fear the present editor is falling into the same snare. These are facts; and it is also a fact that Mr Webster is seeking the Presidency. We firmly believe (we may say we know) Mr Webster to be a deceitful, designing, corrupt politician. And looking at his past life, public and private, we cannot have any faith in him, even if he did not blow hot and cold in the very speech from which we quoted. God help the slaveholders when they have no one to uphold their rights but Danl. Webster. In fact the whole troop of politicians (those who are looking for and courting national pre ferment) now find they have such difficult parts to perform, that when they make a speech they remind us of the man in the play making love to two damsels his face is alternately turned to each as he vows to them warm and eternal affec tion. Such a state of things must prove decep tive, and somebody must be cheated. Such a state of things cannot last long, and God forbid it should. Now we have given the " mean " man's opin ion of our treatment of Mr Webster, and we can say to him in all sincerity, it suits us better that such is his opinion than if he had said we acted " rather" noble. It is said that one had better have the good will of a dog than his ill will, but there are ex ceptions to all rules. TROTESTANT EPISCOPAL CONVENTION. This body adjourned on Monday last, in the afternoon, after a stormy session of five days, and after placing Bishop Ives in a rather ridicul ous position. A committee had been appointed last year to inquire into the conduct of the Bishop in regard to the promulgation of a pastoral letter and other writings and teachings in which he went clear over to Puseyism : amounting to an authoritative infusion of certain Roman Catholic doctrines j into the Protestant Episcopal faith. Near about the first business in order in the Convention, was the disposal of the report of this committee. On its presentation, a motion was made by Mr Mallettto dispense with the reading of the report, and re-commit it to a committee of 0 laymen and 6 clergymen, with authority to have a conference with the Bishop, and to report to the Convention.' On this question an animated discus sion ensued, and on a call of t he question by or ders and by'ehurches, the Ministers sustained the motion by a large majority, and the churches being equally divided, both orders not concur ring, the motion was lost. After various mo tions to adjourn to take a recess , Sec. the read ing of the report was about to commence, when a motion was made to clear the house of all except members of the Convention, and close the door. To this great objection was made, and gave umbrage particularly to the specta tors, some of whom, on the adoption of the mo tion, were so discourteous as to hiss. Dr F J Hill gave notice that he would, at the first opportunity, introduce a resolution declar ing that at all future meetings of the Convention they should sit with open doors, and " all the world" be invited to attend, and on this motion he intended to call for a vote by orders and by churches, to see who was for sitting in secret conclave. The audience were then excluded and the doors closed for the night. On the next morn ing, the resolution closing the doors was rescind ed, and by consent of both parties, the Report was recommitted to a committee of 12, with in structions to report by G o'clock, or the commit too tvmibt hp considered as dissolved, and the Convention proceed in the case. The Bishop appeared before the committee and made, in writing, a thorough and humiliating recantation of all his writings and teachings, in cluding a private letter to Rev. C. F. McRae He stated that owing to the peculiar state of his mind, which was occasioned either from sicknes or constitutional infirmity, he was led away into opinions which, upon re-examination, he won dered he ever entertained that this change of opinion he thinks is caused by a return of better health of body and mind. The committee reported no particular action in the case. During the discussion of the re port, it seemed generally to have been admitted that the Bishop's mind had been impaired, but his friends now claim his entire sanity. It was stated that the Bishop's father died insane, and that he now has a brother in a state of insanity. Some of the members went so far as to say that they did not think the Bishop had been amen able to the laws of the Church for a consider able length of time prior to the last Convention at Elizabeth City. The report also contained other matter, but not of public interest. Mr Badger offered a resolution stating that the Bishop had lost the confidence of the Diocese, and requesting him to resign, which Judge Strange moved to amend by striking out the re quest to resign, and expressing me opinion -.u- an Assistant Bishop ought to be appointed, wnicn was accepted by Mr Badger. At a subsequent stage of the business, the re solution was withdrawn, and some satisfactory arrangement made. The Bishop appeared before TELE NOIHtTH the Convention and made an affecting address, and so the matter ended . The Convention was very large and made quite stir in our place, usually so quiet at this sea son. The members affectionately saluted each other at the adjournment. It will meet here again next May. PATENT LEATHER SHOES. As this kind of shoe is coming very much into use, we can give those who wear them a useful word on the subject. A little oil rubbed on with the finger about once a week, and rubbed off with a piece of rag, will keep a gloss upon the shoe prevent its cracking so soon as otherwise, and prevent the bad effect of water spilled on it. Be careful to get none of the oil on the cloth, where the shoe is a gaiter with cloth. A mix ture of three parts hog's lard, and one part rosin, melted together, is better than common oil. CHANGE OF COSTUME. We see that a large number of papers are no ticing the appearance in some of the northern towns of women in short frocks and gathered pantalettes. And some of these papers are silly enough to call the dress "decidedly pretty," and to indulge the belief that it is rapidly becoming the fashion. But a very few of these novelties have appear ed, and there is not the slightest ground to sup pose that they will become "the fashion." THE TRUE PLAN OF EDUCATION. We have condemned for the last fifteen years the present bungling never-to-be-learnt or thography of the English language. And we have advocated ever since we became acquaint ed with it, the plan known for the last ten years as " Phonotypy " In other words, the plan of having but one sound to each character or letter of the language. Instead of a having four sounds, let it have but one. This system is progressing slowly, and we trust surely, to universal adoption. The following evidence of its superiority over the present system is furnished by a practical demonstration in the New England States the seat of education: Phonotypy. A School of children has recently been taught in Boston in a man ner which is exciting a great ileal of in terest among the educationists of that city. Fifteen or twenty children were taken who were of the proper age to learn to read, and who knew nothing whatever of letters. They were trained three months in flionotypy, after which they were put to reading books printed in the or dinary way and trained at that three months longer, at the end of which time a public exhibition of the school was given. It was attended numerously by the parents of the children, 'the teachers of the public schools and the friends of education gen erally, and the fact appeared to be that those children taught in this manner had jumped entirely that tedious period of youthful trial in learning to read, and that they were able to read any hnglish book with as much facility as children taught in the ordinary way after two or three years; Desule wnicn tlie little things had. during the same period, learned to read phonetic short-hand, to analyze words, and to prnounce with great accuracy. So remarkable an improvement in education naturally fixed the attention of the public, which called for additional exhibitions, and the crowds attending them have con tinued to increase. The last of nine of these public exhibitions was given in the State House before the Governor, Senate, Council and State Hoard of Education, and ended in a unanimous recommenda tion on the part of the Board of Education of the introduction of Phonotypy into the Schools of the State as a greatly superior method of teaching children to read or dinary books. From the "Wilmington Commercial. THE METHODIST CHURCH CASE. The arguments in the Methodist Church case were concluded on Thursday last. The Court said it would necessarily take up some time before a decision could be rendered, and hoped that the suggestions thrown out by tlie counsel on both sides, that the parties would come to an amicable settlement themselves, before a decision was given, would be attended with success. We hope this may be the case, but fear the northern men will hold on, if they have any hope of retaining the property they so unjustly held southern slave holders being considered by them as fair game; that it is very proper to plunder them on all occasions. Tlie truth is, the highest Judicature of the Church decided upon a division of the Church into North anil South, as the only way to bring peace. This authority is now contested, and the requirements of the northern portion were, that the South ern Methodists should stay in the Church; be constantly abused for being slave hold ers ; have their Bishops repudiated, and the doors of northern Churches closed against their ministry. Very modest, to be sure. This virtue of modesty they practised in another point by holding on to property that did not belong to thero after a decision of the Church was legalized. It is believed the Judge will decide in favor of the Southern claimants, if the case is not compromised. We do not see how he can possibly decide otherwise. Raleigh and Gaston Road. We un derstand the prospects for raising the stock necessary for securing the Charter, are much more favorable than they have been. Lar"-e and enthusiastic Meetings have been helcf during the past week in Warrenton, Louisburg, and Forestville, and arrange ments made for obtaining subscriptions which seem likely to be attended with suc cess.

An investigation in regard to "Spiritual Rapp ings" at Rochester, N. Y., has produced, among other things, the following evidence, which ex plodes the whole humbug of two years standing: Deposition oj Mrs J'erman Culver, taken at Arcadia, J. F., April 17, 1&51. I am, by marriage, a connection of the Fox girls, their brother married my hus band's sister. The girls have been a great deal at my house, and for about two years 1 was a very sincere believer in the rapp ings ; but some things which I saw when I was visiting the girls at Rochester, made me suspect that tuey were deceiving. I reolved to satisfy myself in someway; and some time afterward I made a pro position to Catherine to assist her in pro ducing the manifestations. 1 had a cousin visiting me from Michigan, who was going to consult the spirits, and 1 told Catherine that if they intended to go to Detroit, it would be a great thing for them to con vince him ; 1 also told her, that if I rould do anything to help her, I would doit cheerfully that I should probably be able to answer all the questions he would ask, and 1 would do it if she would show me how to make the raps. She said as Mar garetta, was absent, she wanted somebody to help her, and that u 1 would become a medium, she would explain it all to me. She said that when my cousin consulted the spirits, I must sit next to her, and touch her arm when the right letter was called. I did so, and was able to answer nearly all the questions correctly. After I had helped her in this way a few times, she revealed to me the secret. The raps are produced with the toes. All the toes are used. After nearlv a week's practice, with Catharine showing me how, I could produce them perfectly myself. At first it was very hard work to do it. Catharine told me to warm my leet, or put them in warm water, and it would then be easier work to rap; she said that she had to warm her feet three or four times in the course of an evening. I found that heating my feet did enable me to rap a great deal easier. I have sometimes produced a hundred and fifty raps in succession. I can rap with all the toes on both feet; it is.most difficult to rap with the great toe. Catharine told me how to manage to an swer the questions; she said it was gen erally easy enough to answer right if the one who asked the questions called the al phabet; she said the reason why they ask ed people to write down several names on paper, and then point to them till the spirit rapneu at tne rigmone, was io give them a chance to watch the countenance and motions of the person, and that in that wav they could nearly always guess right. She also expiaineu now iney neiu uown jm t t 1 1 and moved tables ( Mrs Culver gave us some illustrations of the tricks.) She told me that all 1 should have to do to make the raps heard on the table, would be to put my foot against the bottom of the table when I rapped, and that when I wished to make the raps sound distinct on the wall I must make them louder, and direct my own eyes earnestly to the spot where I wished them to be heard. She said if 1 could put my foot against the bottom of the door, the raps would De nearu on tne top of the door. Catharine told me that that when the committee held their ankles in Rochester, the Dutch servant girl rap ped with her knuckles, under the floor, from the cellar. The girl was instructed to rap whenever she heard their voices calling the spirits. Catharine " also ex plained how the sound of sawing and plain ing boards was made. Marsaretta told me that when people insisted on seeing her teet and toes, she could produce a few raps with her fool and ankle. Elizabeth Fish, (Mrs. Fish's daughter,) who now lives with her father, was the first one who produced the raps. She accidentally discovered the way "to make mem Dy playing with her toes against the foot-board while in bed. Catherine told me that the reason why Elizabeth went away West to live with her father, was because she was too conscientious to be come a medium. The whole secret was revealed to me, with the understanding that 1 should practice a3 a medium when the girls Were away. Catherine said that whenever 1 practised I had better have my little girl at the 'table with me, and make folks believe that she was the me dium, for she said they would not suspect so young a child of any trick. After 1 had obtained the whole secret, I plainly told Catharine that my only object was to find out how these tricks were done, and that I should never go any farther in this imposition. She was very much frighten ed, and said that she believed that 1 meant to tell it, and expose them; and if . a. . a i uiu, she would swear it was a lie. one w as so nervous and excited that I had to sleep with her that night. When she was instructing me how to be a medium, she told me how frightened they used to get in New-York for fear somebody would detect them, and gave me the whole his tory of all the tricks they played upon the people there. She said that once Mar garetta spoke aloud, and the whole party believed it was a spirit. Mrs. Norman Culveh. We hereby certify that Mrs. Culver is one of the most reputable and intelligent ladies in the town of Arcadia. We were present when she made the disclosures contained in the above paper; we had heard the same from her before, and we cheerfully bear testimony that there cannot be the slightest doubt of the truth of the whole statement. C. G. Pomehoy, M. D. Rev. D. S. Chase. I have in my possession other deposi tions from persons residing in Rochester, who have been confederates of the Fox girls in the rapping business, which in due time and form, will be made public. The reign of these' impostors is nearly at an end, and the few editors who have been the means of deceiving the public in relation to their real character, will, I trust, have their reward in the deep indig nation and scorn of those whose credulity has been abused.
