If the wliis, after placing a citizen of North Carolina on their ticket, and after making unprece dented exertions by-tlie circulation of New Boston libels, congressional certificates, secret circulars, anil picture-books, bv thousands and tens of thousands, cannot J carry the old North Stale, w hat State can they carry? That is the question of the day, and it is very perplexing and hard to answer. NORTH CAROLINA ELECTION. The Washington correspondent of the Charleston Standard, wrote thus on the day before the -election : " Tl e result is supposed to be indicative truthfully, of the character of the Presi dentiaPcorilest, which has hardly opened as yet.. Bulb Whigs and Democrats agree that if Iteid is re-elected, Scott will hardly kick, and that if Kerr succeeds, the strtiijjtre will ltsevera.-4)ne.--,Tlie Scott managers, who, with the exception of Mr Stanly of North Carolina, his col league, Mangum, and Gov. Jones of Ten nessee, are exclusively Northern Seward -ite Abolitionists, seem to be confident of success- Thev have franked a million of pamphlets, &c, into the State, and have furnished at least $100,000 to be used up on the voters of North Carolina. The Democrats of Congress from that State, are equally sanguine. One at a distance cannot realize how essentially this Presi dential election is a pure sectional contest. At Washington alone, it is perceptible, beyond dental, that it is a struggle for the preservation ol Southern rights under the Constitution. The determination of more than a majority of the Southern Y hi meinbers, not to countenance the election of Scott, grows out of this fact. These Southern men see that if Pierce triumphs. Southern rights and the strict construction on which the preservation of those rights depends, will be strengthened under and in the Government ; and that, if, on the other haad, Scott shad triumph, Seward, Truman Smith, Fitz Henry Warren, and Tom Ewing, will be the Government for the next four years." Post Offices in North Carolina A new PostOtlice has been established at Powhatan, Union county, King C. Sim mons, P. M. Falling Mill, Moore county, has been discontinued. The chief reason for the discontinuance of Post Offices, is the fail ure of the Postmasters to make returns, but they are always re established when a proper person can be found to fill the office. Free Soil Conventions. The Free Soil State Convention of Pennsylvania as sembled at Pittsburg on the 10th inst. About 200 persons were present, repre senting 20 counties and the citv of Phila delphia A platform of principles was adopted in the afternoon, the a in of which is the abolition of slavery and repudiation of the compromise. Both the whig and democratic parties are denounced, as hav ing "bowed the knee to the dark spirit of slavery. " The National Free Soil Convention assembled at 10 o'clock on the 11th. Two thousand persons were present at the Masonic Hall. The States represented were New Hampshire, Maine, Massachu setts, Connecticut, Khode Island, Ver mont, New York, Delaware, Maryland, Pennylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wiscon sin, Indiana, Illinois. Iowa. Virginia, Kentucky, and Missouri. J. P. Hale was nominated for President. Fred. Douglass was in the meeting and treated with much consideration. He made a speech. The people of Pittsburg took but little note of the affair .Mr Hale, previous to the metinz of the Con vention, wrote a letttr declining the nomination. Our minds are like ill-hung vehicles ; when they have little to carry they raise a prodigious clatter: when heavily laden they neither creak nor crumble.

We have already stated that James Houston, a respectable young planter near Darien, Ga., had been murdered by five of his felaves,who were subsequently arrested, made a coulession, tried by the populace and -sentenced to be hung on the 26th inst. A letter in the Boston Traveller has the following particulars of the murder:-; , - On thejday of the murder, he had one of the women whinned for misconduct. About dark he laid down to sleep. The men tooklthis opportunity, and seized him, stripped him, tied his hands behind him, and fastened him to a tree, with a chain about his neck the woman holding a light during the whole time. They then, with a cow-skin, inflicted upon him a hundred lashes, he begging for his life, ami the woman crying out to them 4give him more' while seven other women be longing td the same plantation, were on their knees pleadng for his life. They also beat him with a "paddle," cutting his head and face dreadfully. Exhausted by their exertions, they left their victim for several hours in this con dition. At midnight they returned to their murderous work, and finished him with three blows of an axe upon the head. They then buried him in a marsh, turn ing the boat bottom-side up, and setting his hat floating down the river, to create an impression that he was drowned; and such, for several days, was supposed ti be the case. Mr Houston was unmarried, belonged to one of the best families in the Stale, and was the only white person on the island where he was murdered- A report ..asifr!fcf'---.TeU iliat me Decides ae since been hung by the infuriated populace. Grnham for the Senate We under stand that the Whigs, being now convinc ed that their candidates stand no chance in November next, and beginning to think that our divisions have enabled them to securs the Legislature, already talk of sending Mr Graham to the the United States Senate. As for Gen. Scott, he has secured his retreat by still holding on to his lucrative appointment. IPiluunglon Journal. The whig party will not have an oppor tunity to make Wm A Graham, John Kerr, or any other whig. IT. S. Senator at the next.session of the Legislature. So they need not bother themselves about it any longer. The American Expedition to Japan. We find the following in the Amsterdam Houdelsblad of the 18th : We learn from a positive source, that the government of the United States of America has abandoned its project of an expedition against Japan. It has preferr ed invoking the mediation of the Dutcli government. We are also assured that the Dutch government, which, in 1846, made overtures to the Emperor of Japan, in the interest of the whale of Kuropean cons merce, has accepted this mission, and we have no doubt of its using every eflort to accomplish it successfully. Consumption Two or three years ago, experiments were made by members of the London Faculty of physicians in different hospitals, for the cure of diseases of the tvn "by breathing warm, medicated vapors. I he success of the experiments were so gratifying that an institutian the Brompton Hospital- for the cure of bron chitis and consumption, was immediately established ; and so favorable has bee'i the result of the treatment, that the num ber of patients admitted during the year is between fwb and three thousand ;"and the hospital report shows that fill seventy five in every one hundred have been com pletely cared. Accident on' tht" Railroad. We learn that the mail train coming down this morn ing, met with an accident while passing the trestle work about seven miles above Teachey's depot, occasioned by the break ing of oue of the wheels of the hindmost passenger car, throwing the car, in some measure, off the trestle-work, and knock- ing the latter completely down. 1 he Iront car was nearly off the trestle, and escaped with but little injury ; the hind car is pretty much used up. Mr Crone, the Superintendent, was badly bruised ; one negro man injured ; a negro woman in the same car escaped unhurt- The passsen gers. who were all in the front car, came down with the engine and baggage car. iione ot them sustained any injury. Wilmington Journal, Aug. 14. rnae ; : WARM SPRINGS, N. C. Mr Lannman's Book of Travels fur nishes os with the annexed description of the warm Springs of North Carolina: . Thee springs are thirty-six miles frooi -Aslievillc, and within sis of the rremesee line. There are several of theui, the" largest being covered with a house, and divided in two equal apart ment, either one of which U sufficiently large to allow of a swim. r'rhe tempera tu re of the water is 105 decrees, and it is a singular fact; ..that rainy vvatherf has a varies oiore than a couule ot deeri- All! , - i-. ,i - i - ti margin of the French Broad; the water is clear as crystal, and so heavy that even a child may be thrown into it with little danger of being drowned. As a beverase, the water is quite palatable, and it is said that some people can drink a number of quarts per day, and yet experience none but beneficial effects. The diseases which it is said to cure are palsy, rheumatism and cutaneous affections. The Warm Springs are annually visited by a large, number of fashionable and sickly people, from all the Southern States, and the pio prietor has comfortable accommodations for two hundred and fifty people. His principal building is of brick, and the ball-room is 230 feet long. Music, danc ing, flirting, riding, bathing, fishing, scenery-hunting, bowing and reading, are all practiced hereto an unlimited extent; but, what is more exciting than all these pleasures Dut together, is the rare sport of deer-hunting. " North Carolina. For the past few davs the eyes of the political woild have been turned towards North Carolina, a State that has been for years wedded to Federalism. We are informed that no effort on the part of the Whigs, was spared to carry their ticket in- this State. Stanley and others, favorable to Scott, flooded the State vvitik lieing documents about Frank Pierce's abolitionism, even endorsing the charge with their own signatures. Mr Graham, the Whig candidate for Vice, lent all his personal influence. Federal office holders left their posts at Washington loaded with Whig documents and money to inlluence the election. On this election the friends of Scbft all over the-Ur.ion placed their hope : iJtsi if oar letters and private despatches arc correct, their efforts have proved abortive and their hopes are in vam The whig party, with the rallying cry of"-;- Scott ami Graham" have been defeated at Graham's home. How mortifying? how crushing to those sanguine hearts that beat high with Whig hopes Now will come a desperate strug gle on the part of our opponents, but it will be as the last throes of a dying man. Ph iludelph ia Penn syl vanian. The brave Marshal Kxcelmans. one of the Kmperor Napoleon's Generals, was i killed lately bv a fall from his horse. Had tliis distinguished veteran been an American Democrat, and met with this fatal accident on the battlefield, the Scott Whigs most of them carpet knights on the peace establishment would have de nounced him as a coward. The French papers however speak of the deceased Marshal, in terms of the highest eulogy, and do nut appear to look upon hi n as at all disgraced by the accident which' ter minated his life. Fanny Fkkn on Matrimony The Bos ton Olive Brancli has one of the liveliest aiiii most original lady contributors we know of. Here ate a couple of her last "Leaves. " Don't marry a woman under twenty one. She hasn't come to her wickedness before then." Blackwood's Magazine. Well ! If I knew any bad words, I'm awful afraid I should say 'em!

Now you'd better repent of your sins, Mr What's your name, for as sure as preaching, you will go where you'll have nothing to do but thinrc of 'em! and you won't find any women there either, for they all go to the other place. EDITING A PAPER- Hear what "-the.' National' intelligencer ays about editing a newspaper : Many people" estimate the ability ef a newgpnper, atid the industry and talent of its editor, by the editorial matter it con tains. It is comparatively an easy "task for a frothy writer to pour out daily col umns ot words--words upon any and all suujccis. ins meas may nawr in on wishy-washy everjst'errj ,i Z. o.. .r . .. . . i -..v.

The care, the time employed in selecting, U far more important, than the fact of a good editor bettor known by his selections than anything else, and that we all know U hall the battle. But as we have said, an editor ought to be evtimated, and his la bors understood and appreciated, bv tho general conduct of his paper, its tone, iu principle and aims, its manliness. iU dignity and propriety. To preserve thesis as they should be preserved, is enough to occupy fully the time and attention of any man. If to this be added the general su pervision of the newspaper establishment, which most editors have to encounter, the wonder is how they find time to wiito ut all. A Dkspkhate Fight with a Black Beau. The Portland following account of a Argus contains the bear light, which transpired in Andover, Oxford county, Maine, North Surplus, on the 22d ult : As Krastus Bean, a young man ol 0 years, wasJtaying in his'field, accompan ied by a boy of 12, named Dunn, he look ed up and saw near him a large black bear ol the whttefaced breed, (the ot the black variety. Ita gun with him to shoot it up and fired at the effect, as the bear : close upon him. Be loading his gun in just as he had got his cha t . . Laugiii against a twig ami wards and bruin leaned unon His situation now was a frih - but his coiilness did not forsake him he immediately fired again, but with visible effect The bear at once went work, seizing his left arm, biting through it and lacerating it severely. Whflo thus amusing himself, he was tearing with his fore paws the clothes and scratching the flesh on the young man's breast. Hav ing dropped his arm, he opened his huge mouth to make a pounce at his face. Then it was that the young man made the dash that saved his life. As the bear opened his jawt?, Bean thrust his lacerated arm down the brute's throat, as far as desper ation would enable him. There he had him. The bear could neither retreat nor advance, though the position of the beseig cd was anything but agreable on so warm a day as Thursday last. Bean now called upon the lad to come and take from his pocket a jack knife and open it. The boy was a lilting companion for this brave young man. He marched up to the wok boldly. But befoie hi; could get at the pocket he had to crowd the bear's head over a little to get at it the beast meantime not at all easy with such a huge mouthful in his throat. Hav inggot the knife, Bean with hi untrameled hand, cut the bear's throat from ear to ear killing him stone dead while he lay on his body! He then threw the beast off. noti fied his friends, had his wounds dressed, and is now comfortable. It was judged the bear weighed nearly four hundred pounds.' One of his paws which our in formant saw, weighed two pounds eleven ounces. Call not that man wretched who, what ever else he suffers as to pain inflicted, pleasure denied, has a child for whom he hopes, and on whom he dotes. Poverfv may grind him to the dust, obscurity may cast its darkest mantle over him, the sonr of the gay may be far from his own dwell ing, his face may be unknown to his neigh bors, and his oice may be unheeded among those with whom he dwells even pain may rack his joints, and sleep flee from his pillow ; but he has a gem with which he would not part for wealth defyin computation, for fame filling a w orld', ear for the luxury of the highest wealth, or thu. sweetest sleep that ever sat upon a mortal eve.
