NORTH CAROLINIAN. Robert K. Bryan, Editor and Proprietor, FAYETTEVlLLEt N C. SATURDAyTsEPTEMBER 10, 1853. WHAT HAS THE ADMINISTRATION DONE? We hear this question repeated and re-echoed by the Whig Press, accompanied by complaints of the political guilotinc, proscription, &c. &.c. It is asked, why has not the Administration de veloped some " new scheme of national policy to promote the national interest ?" Why has it not " made its mark" upon something? Why has it not done this thing, and why has it not done that ? Now we might premise that considering that the present Administration has been in THINGS FOR THE FAIR. We learn that our townsmen, A. A.McKethan and A. H. Whitfield, are . preparing to exhibit specimens of Carriage work at the Agricultural I Fair which is to be held in Raleigh on the ISth of October next. This exhibits a commendable spirit. . We hope that as many of the different counties of our State as can do so, will make ar rangements to be represented. Those along the line of the Railroads will have the advantage of transporting their specimens free of charge. . - i -? nvEHH AiTi iwiJ in a bki i ion onir i w ucu., ii . mcuunuu. saia iu us IS MR SECRETARY McCLELLAlsu of FugHe Slate, -There hasbeen con- jUteideOt3at PijeUeUle was arrested FREE SOILER ? .inerable excrement at Portsmouth, Val, on c- at the Milt Terrv, on Toeraj last, by The charge has frequently beer, made bthe (who poriue.1 him big press that Mr McClelland, now Secretary coont of the discovery o r .e ,,1 .lle frtm, YrfnpirVitl to the Red Housed -. j . ih a tsrizisn vessel . id' wuim juj . . -- j - . FALL GOODS. Our merchants are now busily engaged in receiving and opening their supplies of fall and winter goods. We invite our friends from the country to come in and see whig press of the Interior, is a. ! assertion repeated in the Raleigh Register of 7in inst. Now in order that the truth of this mat ter maf appear, we subjoin the latter part of a resolution adopted by the Convention which nominated McClelland for Governor of Michigan, in the Fall of 1851. This was a period of great excitement, the compromise measures having passed a short time previous thereto, and a bitter hostility to the fugitive slave law having ensued.

The moral edect of the inaugural address, of President Pierce alone, has been, we"venture to say, far greater and more beneficial than would have been whole Hnrr ni Ism a na seme nt as that which characterized the lat Administration put in power by the whigs the Taylor administra tion. Although President Pierce's Administra tion has not found it necessary to develope any new scheme of national policy to give increased momentum to the unparalleled progress which our country is making in everything which per tains to civilization; although it has not in the short neriod of six months brought to a final settlement the fishery difficulties, which engaged the attention of the Fillmore Administration for a greater period, ;.t the end of which they were about as near an adjustment as at the beginning ; although it has not shirked nt of :my difficulty by pursuing a pusillanimous course of policy, or done anything else whereby to leave its mark in a manner to satisfy whig complaints, yet we claim for it the negative merit of not having done some things. First. It has not made itself a laughing stock by talking about ' the world " and the rest of mankind," nor in any other way insulted the shade of Lindley Murray, or treated with brutali ty the Queen's English. Secondly. It has not imperilled the Union by any course f policy v hich it has pursued. It is fresh in the recollection of every one that Gen. Taylor's policy in regard to the Territories, at the time of the slavery agitation, was to let them alone. Of course no compromise of sectional difficulties could ever have taken place without embracing this fruitful subject of disagreement. At the period alluded to, so imminent was the danger of dissolution, aggravated by the policy of the Taylor Cabinet, that we have repeatedly heard intelligent whigs express the opinion that if that Cabinet had remained in power one year longer, a dissolution of the Union would have been ine itahle. Thirdly. Gen. Piorce's A -l m i ni st ra t ion has never, by any course of action, placed American citizens beyond the protection of the Law of Nations as well as of treaty stipulations It has never, by proclamation or otherwise, brought about the wholesale butchery of Americans, without even the form of an imparti iltri.il, as did the Fillmore Administration at the time of the ill-fated expedition against Cuba. Fourthly. The present Administration has n.t siffnalizcil itself bv i t s Ga 1 1 h i ii i sin or Gard- neiim. We do not hear now of any Cabinet officers going halves with sharpers in plundering the Public Treasury. We hear of no hundreds of thousands of dollars paid away in the shape of interest upon antiquated claims, without the authority of law, nd contrary to well established usages of the Government. These are some of the things which the pre sent Administration has not dmie, and we think that if some of our whig cotemporaries would weigh these negative virtues against the positive vices of certain powers which once were, but now are not, they would find an abundant an swer to their querulous whinings about the want of efficiency in Gen. Pierce and his cabinet. the retail about as cheap in Fayetteville as in New York. And it is quite reasonable that they should be. Our merchants do not have to pay the enormous rents which so greatly diminish the r profits of the New York merchant; the help of our merchant costs him vastly less, and living is much cheaper.bere than intbe great metropolis. These advantage added to the facilities of trans portation Which Fayetteville pessesses, (water transportation throughout,) enable our mer chants to retail at very moderate advances. Ow ing however to the abundance of money, and the grat stimulus given to productive industry by the settlement and rapid developement of Cali fornia, Australia, &.C., we believe that almost everything goes at a pretty high figure. utand justified in the eyes of erery well-wisher of his coun try, and glioma be sustained ana eiecuwu in parts., faithfully, fully and impartially." Upon a Platform of which this was a part Gov. McClelland triumphantly carried, the State of Michigan.

A subscriber writes us that the Comet fell in Lumber River on Friday night, 2d inst, produc ing such a rain that the River rose almost out of its natural barriers. He further states that he saw Aries (the ram) who seemed to be doing well, notwithstanding the recent severe concus sion which he received under the short ribs. The only effect produced on him was that his fleece was washed very white by the water. We must be permitted to congratulate the " world ana me resi i uiuiikiiiu inat icmumc 'isi- tor has at length been checked in his career J without having done any material damage to our orb. There may be, however, a legal difficulty growing out of this matter. As Professor Ross (who is unquestionable authority on' all astrono mical questions) has clearly settled that Mount Pinchincha is entitled to the Comet's tail, and our correspondent has established with equal certainty that Lumber River has got possession of it, we shall soon look to see an action of Detinue brought to recover the same. omnhaticallv the Comoromie measures of the last Con gress, and declaring that they - should be sustained and executed in a 11 their parts fait bully, fully and impartially!

She will run in 13 inches water, and is, we learn, remark ably well adapted to our River. She is propelled by two engines of 32 horse power each. On Thursday last she staited on her first trip with her upper works unfinished. We cannot say as yet how she will look or how she will run. LATER FROM EUROPE.

But to us "outside barbarians" in remote country towns, the benefits of the tele graph come with m-any qualifications and draw backs. We were conversing the other day with a gentleman of this place, who is in the habit of frequently receiving dispatches in connexion with business matters from New York, and he informed us that he seldom received a dispatch on the same day that it was sent. It generally comes the day after ! Business letters sent on the same day with the dispatch, often get here about the same time ! Steam and stages agairut electricity!

We know that the Company has oreat difficulties to contend with, but it seems to us they might do a little better. THE TRUTH ACKNOWLEDGED. Last week we published an article from the Goldsboro' Republican and Patriot, over the signature of Hyde, headed "A falsehood ex posed." The object of the piece was to contra dict a slander which had been circulated by the JTorth State Whig, which paper had alleged that the " keeper of the Long Shoal Light Boat is so well known to have negro J)lood in him, that he has never been allowed to vote." Now, this keeper was appointed to office by the pre sent administration. And this is why the charge was preferred. But what is the truth of this matter ? The following extract from the North State Whig will show. And we trust that every whig paper that has circulated the slander, will give equal currency to the contradiction: 4 In spite of all the prudence and cau tion which they can exercise, editors will sometimes be led into error. Such was our case in regard to. the appointment of keeper of the Long Shoal Light Boat. Instead ofamulatto having been appointed, as we were informed on most respectable authority was the case, we now learn from a letter from a friend in Hyde, and-from another friend here who was in the county last week, that Capt. Robert Rollison has been appointed to the Long Shoal l5oa ; that Capt. R is a very respectable citizen of Hyde, one of the acting magistrates of the county, ami that the appointment is the best which lias been made in that re gion. Of course our informants were mis informed as to who had been appointed to the Lon: Shoal Boat. ' $3- The Milton Democrat of the Gth instant contains an article on the subject of the proprie ty of the Governor's appointing a successor to Mr Mangum' in the Senate of the U.

Certainly the Governor himself so regards it, as he has had 9 months in which to resolve his doubts, and has in the meantime had the benefit of the opinions of some of the ablest men in the State on the question. His failure during that time to make any appointment, may, we think, be regarded as clearly indicating his conviction of the illegality of any such appointment. correspondent who sisns himself has neglected to give his name.

A GOOD SUPPLY of Bank Checks (on either of the Banks) oa hapd and tor sale at this Uthce THE LETTER OF LORD JOHN RUSSEL in reply to Mr Everett, has elicited much severe comment from the American press His arro gance in undertaking to read our Government a lecture on the peccadillos of our citizens, has met with severe and deserved rebuke. England undertakes forsooth to read America a homily on the immoralitv of violating the law of nations ! This is throwing stones out of a glass house with vengeance, as the able press of the country will ere long convince Lord John Russell. The Boston Post, after commenting on the candor of American diplomacy generally, and particularly of the letter of Mr Everett in reply to the pro posal for a tripartite treaty, thus proceeds: The object of diplomatic notes, with monarchists, has been to conceal designs rather than declare them. With them duplicity is absolutely necessary to ensure their foul schemes success. Hence had a Nesselrode penned a diplomatic note to Poland previous to its partition; or L.01U John Russell one to Denmark previous to the destruction of its fleet at Copenhagen; or to lurkey previous to the battle of Navarino; or to the natives of the Punjab or Chu-an before they were annexed to Great Britain, the communication would have been full of well-turned phrases in Lord John's language of "the value of those eternal laws of right and wrong, of peace & friendship,and of duty toour neigh bors, which ought to guide everj Christian nation!" It would have enlarged on the utility of those rules which for centuries have been known to Kurope by the name of the law of nations; ' and it would have closetl with expressions indicative of abso lute horror of any nation's setting ''the examnle of abrogating the most sacred provisions" of law. The practical com ment on all which would have been the mowing down of the Chinese as mowers cut the grass, the bloody progress of British power in India; the wanton destruction of the fleets of Denmark and Turkey; and that stupendous national crime, the parti tion of Poland. America has no such schemes as these, and needs no such false uised diplomacy. Now it is a worker out of such Christian ethics and interna tional law that assumes the duty of aiU monition! This arrogant lecturing will be despised by the free millions of America. They will distrust the qualifications of the lecturer. They will not, as a "Christian nation," be guided by his walk. They will brand all this as rank hypocrisy. It is from a power that has hesitated not, in the attainment of political ends, to trample on every law, human and divine ; and it has no more right to play the moral Mentor to young and rising America than Satan has to teach love to the angelic host."

Mr Dobbin's numerous friends in North Caro lina will be glad to know that he is now quite recovered from the eflects of his recent indis position, and, as heretofore, is industriously en gaged iu the faithful discharge of the important duties of his office, the weight of which, dcring these few weeks past, has been not a little in I creased 111 the absence of the Secretary of War, by a superintendence of the affairs of that De partment. Soon after the return of that gentleman, it is under-tood that Mr Dobbin will proceed to visit our principal Naval Dock Yards on the custom ary tour of inspection. His journey will extend to Portsmouth, N. H., and the change of air and relaxation of a few weeks from the monotonous routine and close confinement of official occupa tionitherseat"or Government, cannot but be at tended with a beneficial effect on his general state of health. Mr Dobbin's suavity of manner wins the favor able opinion of all who approach him; and among the minor details of discipline, his recent modi fixation of the stringent regulation regarding the tonsure of the beard, (which may now be worn at the discretion of its owner, provided only, that when worn, it is to be " kept short and neatly trimmed,") will be gratefully appreciated not only by the young aspirant to the dignity of a "tufted chin," but by many an "Old Salt" who has heretofore suffered underthe rough handling of the ship's Barber " in a heavy seaway. As this barbarous edict was originally applied to the naval service some years since by a distin guished gentleman now in the Senate from the Old North State, it is but right that the recent compliment to the general good sense and dis cretion of the Corps should emanate from the same quarter.

He did not know whether a microscope was some thing to eat or a new fangled farming machine ?

While the old philosopher was making a frugal meal in the held at noon, the youth protluced his microscope, and explained its operation. which he illustrated by exhibiting its pow ers upon several bugs and divers minute atoms ot animated matter at hand.
