THE NORTH CAM LINIAN, FAYETTEVILLE, N. C. A Letter from Mr Ciuhingr. Read the subjoined letter from Attorney General Cusliing. It clearly unfolds the policy of the Administration in regard to sectional issues. That policy will tolerate no alliance with abolitionism or freesoilisra for any purpose. What will candid southern whigs think of this letter ? Will they not begin to distrust the representations which their journals are con stantly making about the appointment of Frcc soikrs to office by Gen. Pierce? If the Presi dent will not tolerate an alliance with them for party purposes, is it likely that he has rewarded or will reward them by the bestowment of offices? But read the letter : Washington-, Oct. 29, 1853. Dear Pir: I perceive that in several counties of Massachusetts coalition senatorial ticket? l,!.vi been formed of associated democrats and free-soilers. .Mv judgment is, that the demo crats who have participated in this, have done worse than to commit a fatal error. 1 ney have abandoned a principle which is fundamen tal. To support or vote for the free-toilers of Massachusetts is to give countenance and power to persons engaged, avowedly, in the persistent agitation of the slavery- question, and therefore hostile, in the extrcmest degree, to the deter mined policy of the administration. The J 're silient entertains immovable convictions on this point, as I have had( occasion to express to you heretofore; and all of us whom he has called to the publie service here most heartily and zeal ously sustain his views on the subject, as being the only ones consistent with or.rpersonal honor, the success of the democratic party, the general welfare of the country, the integrity of the Con stitution, or the permanency of the Union. If th re be any purpose more iixeu man nnoincr 1 I 1 A t A t in the mind of the President and those with whom he is accustomed to consult, it is that that dangerous element of abolitionism, under whatever guise or form it may present itself, shall be crushed out, so fir as this administra tion is concerned. This the President declared j in his inaugural; this he has declared ever since, at all t imes, and in all places, when he had oc- i casion to speak o:i the subject. While he does not assume to judge of the hearts of men who publicly avow sound principles, he only needs overt acts to show where, t hey are, in order that his settled policy in the conduct of the affairs of the government shall be unequivocally mani fested." Those who have apprehended halting or hesitation on the part of the President in treading any path which truth and patriotism open to him, will find themselves greatly mis trken. lie is up to this occasion. His policy was not hastily settled; while he occupies his present position it will never be departed from. The constitutional rights of all the States of this Union are as dear to him as the rights of New Hampshire. I have perceived from the outset that this great principle of the constitu tional rights of t lie States is fastened in his thought as the corner stone of this Union. De pend upon it, no matter what consequences may impend over him, he will never allow it to be shaken by abolitionists or factionists, but will set his face like flint as well against right-hand liack-slidinirs as against left-hand defections, which may prejudi progress of the rci e or embarrass the onward (ublic. verv truly 1 remain vours.

The fact of his election on one occas'en, and his defeat by only a few votes o:i another, when he was opposed by an influential Whig, in a County of such decided political character as Rutherford", is proof of his popularity at home; in a wider field the qualities which ha ve gained for him the confidence of his neighbors, would fceure him favor with the public. I a his County canvass he espoused the cause of ? Snjj'rage, and opposed earnestly the calling of a Convention to amend the Constitution, thus placing himself emphatically and clearly on the platform of the Democracy of the State.

During the progress of the Fair at Augusta, the chairman of the executive committee authorized the auctioneer to offer a silver cup as a premium for the best looking baby, of native growth, 14 months old, which should be exhibited. A little daughter of Robt O lover was the only competitor, and of course took the prize. Tiie scene is represented to have been exceedingly interesting; so much so that the auctioneer remarked that he would have no objection to its repitition at the next Fair, provided he could produce one of the same sort of his own. Indeed, we observe a state ment that a $50 premium will be awarded an nnal'y to the finest specimen of miniature bn manitvexhibited. Star. Foreign Sews.

Tiie following resolutions were adopted by thc recent State Temperance Convention, which assembled in Raleigh, 36 counties being repre sented : 1. Resolved, That this Convention views with the deepest and most anxious concern, the widespread influence of intemperance over the citizens of this State, in spite of the vigorous efforts to suppress it, and the general disgust with which it is regarded by the public mind. 2. Resolved, That the demands of an enlight ened age, and the moral, social and economical wants of our people, call loudly for more effec tive measures to secure its suppression and ultimate annihilation. 3. Resolved, That the sale of intoxicating liquors as a beverage in this State, under the sanction of law, both by wholesale and retail, is tiie chief obstacle to the success of the reforma tory measures hitherto brought into requisition to suppress intemperance. 4. Resolved, That it is the duty of the Legis lature of this State, at its next session, or as soon as it is clearly ascertained that a majority of the people desire it, to pass a law prohibiting entirely the buying and selling within the limits of this State of all intoxicating liquors for other than medical or mechanical purposes; and that this Convention most urgently call upon the citizens of the State, everywhere, to memorial ize the next General Assembly to pass such a law. 5. Resolved, Tiiat while the friends of Tem perance will urge upon the Legislature the pas sage of such a law, and boldly proclaim it to be their purpose to agitate it until the people of this State shall in the exercise of their soverehrty demand it, they are willing to leave to the dis cretion and wisdom of our Legislators, acting under the instructions of their constituencies, such modifications of the present license law, or tiie adoption of such new measures for the sup pression of Intemperance, as they may deem advisable; until the people of the State clearly and emphatically require a prohibitory law. 6. Resolved, That this Convention most dis- i.ucu uiciauns ior ine menus oi lemperance in this State, any design to mix up this great question with party politics, or to organize a Temperance party to oppose, or to affiliate with, either of the political parties of the country, unless the alternative be forced upon us; nor does this Convention deem it desirable or best for ultimate success and permanency, that the measure proposed be carried by either political party. 7. Resolved, That while this Convention most ardently calls upon every citizen of the State, both lug and Democrat, friendly to the Temperance cause, to exert his influence to bring out for the next Legislature, candidates oi high moral worth, sober habits and intelli gence all, good men and true; yet it wholly disclaims all intention of committing any Tem perance man to the support of any particular candidate, in opposition to his own convictions of propriety and duty. A Hide lcn the T. C. Railroad. A fr;end wuo has recently been to Goldsboro', informs us tnat while there he had the pleasure of a ride upon the North Carolina Railroad, wiucii is completed, between Goldsboro' and Raleigh a distance of near ten miles. An engine and car belonging to the Wilmington ami Raleigh Road were put upon this road for the jaunt. The speed at which they travelled was at the rate of thirty miles an hour. The road is represented lobe well built, but, being new, needs a little adjusting, which willplace.it in a hrstrate condition. Messrs. J. C. McRae fc Co., we understand, have been laying the iron upon their portion of the road at the rate of one-quarter of a mile a day. A large quantity of their iron haviug recently arrived, they have increased their force, and will progress more rapidly hereafter.

On Friday the 28th, Parker Pern-, convicted of the murder of his wife, was executed near Raleigh. We learn that a short .time previous to his execution, he made a conijefcion of his guilt, implicating the old negro Riusom (who is dead) in the murder. 1 The prisoner walked to the placqof execution, being- attended by Mr Crowder, (Colporteur,) and Rev. Mr Culbreth. We learn that he said nothing at the gallows, but when5 told by the Sheriff that he was at liberty to speak, he ask ed Mr Crowder and Mr Culbreth to pray for him, and was engaged in prayer xiri to the last moment. His body, after hanging the usual time, was taken down, delivered th some of his relatives, and carried into the country to be tinned. ' i The crowd present at the execution was very large, probably four or five thousand.; At an early hour the streets and grounds jnear the jail were crowded with people of all sekes, ages and conditions; and the anxiety to see the prisoner, and to be "in at the death," appeared to be in tense. We very much doubt the policy of pub lic executions. The hearts of the multitude are rather lrardened than softened or bettered by the spectaele. The murder, the manner of its co'imiiss'.on, the bearing of the prisoner,- his silence or confessions, the breakiffg.pfmBe neck the death struggle -all these things absorb their attention; and the example which the law- seeks to hold up before all is in a great degree forgotten in the excitement and dissipation in cident to the occasion. Executions, within the walls of the prison, in the presence of a few persons summoned to attend by the Sheriff, would probably have a better effect on the pub lic mind. Standard. Imrriran Ware for the WhH Konrc. The renovation of the Executive Mansion, authorized by the last session of Congress, is being made very thorough, and we have every reason to believe will be satisfactory to the people. It is certainly but proper that the house occupied by the President of such a re public as this should be fitted up in a manner worthy of the nation of its moral power, its -intelligence, its wealth. Messrs Haughwout fc Daily, 561 and 569 Broadway, New York, furnish the ware. ; It is composed of breakfast, dinner, dessert, and tea service, of porcelain, and a complete service of glass all got up expressly by that firm for the Executive Mansion. A pleasing feature of these sets is the fact that they are the first purely American deeorat? ed porcelain ware ever placed on the tables of the President. They are remarkable for the richness, elegance, neatness, and convenience of their finish. Messrs Woram & Haughwout (now Haughwout & Dailey) were the first to introduce into this country with success the work of decorating porcelain. Two years ago they made the attempt, and now they have up wards of one hundred persons employed on their premises in New York. "K At the great exhibition in the Crystal Palace these gentlemen are competing successfully with Europe in decorations.

A Sledern Cincinnatos j In a long-and pleasant conversation recently with a distinguished friend, whose mind is rich with recollections, of the least interesting of which is the following : At the session of the South Carolina Legisla ture in 1814, the members were perplexed for a suitable man to elect Governor. The difficulty did not rise from any scarcity of candidates, for then, as now, men were ambitions, but from a want of the right sort of man. The matter be came worse as the time wore on, and the erec tion of some objectionable candidate seemed inevitable. One day, however, as several of them were conversing upon the matter, Judge O'Neal, then a young man and present by invitation, said 'Gentlemen, why not elect General David R. Williams?' 'David R. Williams, he's our man he's the man,' they all exclaimed, as they began to scat ter to tell the news. ".The day of election came on, and Gen. Williams was elected by a large vote. A mes senger was at once dispatched with a carefully prepared letter io inform the General of his election request his acceptance, and hoping he would name the day on which he would take the oath of office. After a long hard ride, the messenger stopped at the General's residence, iu Marlborough District, we believe, and in- Lquired if he was in. He was told that Mr Wil liams was over at his plantation. The gentle man said he would ride over as he had a note to deliver to him as soon as possible. AVhen about halfway he met a fine looking man, dress ed in plain homespun, and driving a team of mules. 'Am I on the road to the plantation of Gen. Williams V asked the messenger. 'Yes, sir; it is about a mile further ou,' was the reply. 'Is the General at home V 'No, sir.' Where is he?' 'I am Gen. Williams.' 'You Gen. David R. Williams?' 'I am the man.' 'Don't deceive me. I have an important letter tor u-encaal Williams. It that is your name,' said the doubting messenger, 'here it is,' handing the letter to the General. Mr Williams opened the letter and found to his utter astonishment that, without his know ledge or consent, he had been elected Governor of South Carolina. He took the messenger home and entertained him for the night, pre paring a note in the meantime, accepting the appointment, and naming a time on which he would be in Columbia. The messenger returned. On the appointed day, a few minutes before twelve o'clock, a man dressed in homespun, and on horseback rode in town ; hitching his animal to a tree, he made h:s way to the Capitol, where he found a brilliant concourse of people. But few knew him personally ; but there was some thing commanding about him. He took his seat in a vacant chair; and when the clock in front of the speaker struck the hour of twelve the General arose and delivered the most mas terly speech that had ever been delivered there on any former occasion. The farmer-statesman entirely electrified the assembly. He made an excellent Governor. The thing conveys a, beautiful idea : Here was a farmer elected; he accepted, and from the plough went to the Governor's office to preside in a st ormy crisis, over the distinv of a sovereign State. Long live his memory. Wilmivs-tcn Free, Fre ts. : ' From the Jortfrem Cuftioator. Use of Lime and Hail. The English agriculturists have used lime ex tensively; and for a long time, and have acquired a great deal of experience relative to its applica tion. At a lecture recently given by Rrotcssor Nesbit, before the London Farmer's Club, he stated a number ol ascertained facts, which briefly related, may be interesting to such of our readers as desire information on this sub iect. In speaking of timing end marling, he said it made little difference, generally, whether calcarious matter was applied in the form of chalk disintegrated by frost, marl, quick-lime, or disintegrated limestone. Limestone is burned and thus reduced to one powder it very soon re turns to a carbonate, precisely the same state as before burning,except that its mechanicanical con dition is entirely changed to that of fine powder This, he regards as the chief object of burning. I1 or lime acts ueneueially tor many years in soil, long af er all traces of its caustic nature have disappeared. Some limestones contain considerable quan tities ot potash and ot phosphate and sulphate of lime, which sometimes add much to their value. Here analysis becomes of great use. As to the rationale of its action, he regards it as operating iu several ways. First, in dis solving ine alkalies, ior tne use or growing p'ants, a result which had been found by trying the experiment during a period of six months in the laboratory. Secondly, in effecting a slow decomposition of organic matter in soils lor the same use; which is strikingly shown by the fact 1 - i i -l i i i fit mux new lanu, or .newiy oroKen neius, are altogether the most benefitted by its action lhe same operation takes place upon manures in the soil. The ammonia which has been ab sorbed, is fed to plants through the assistance of lime. Hence on hard-cropped land, which has been nearly exhausted of organic constituents lime is of little use. On the other hand, if soils are deficient in lime, even a manuring of guano, . . 1 ! 1 l - . . T .. . . . win ue oi iittie comparative use.. it you go to sucn a place as 1-Jxmoor," says l'rot. Nesbit, where the land has not been turned up within the memory of man, and where the soil contains only enough lime for a chemist to swear by, vou ui una tne use ot any other manure ot no avail without it. I have observed myself, on certain parts ot that moor, where lime had been put, turnips were splendid; but the instant you passed tne line up to which the lime had been applied, the crop entirely failed. If vou were to take a handful of slaked lime, and inscribe your name on the soil, you would be able to trace, three or four years after, the exact spot where it was marked." He quotes the old proverb as containing much truth " The uee of lime without manure. Will always make the farmer poor." He states, (what has also been discovered in this country,) that there may be a complete absence of "lime in soils resting upon limestone and mentions cases where the limestone has been within six inches or a foot of the surface, and not the thousandth per cent of lime in the aoil itself; and adds that in some of the south eastern counties they are actually chalking the Chalk Downs to great advantage. Escape 3. A man by the name of James Mc- Duffie, confined in the jail in this town on a charge of horse-stealing, escaped on Wednesday evening last. About dnsk the jailor opened the door of the room in which he was confined to give him some water, when the prisoner rushed out past him without even pausing to bid his host good evening, and made off. He had not been re-taken up to the time of our going to press. Wadesboro' Argus, Oct. 29. Common - Office of Litkrart Board, Raleigh, October 24, 1853.

It w ill be perceived that the Counties which have' had pupils at the Deaf and Dumb Institute for the year entling in 1853, and which have failed to pay the tax of seventy-live dollars for the support and education of each, have had the same deducted, according to act ot Afsejpbiy, fyom the amounts to w h.ch th y are respective ly entitled. The Board not having yet been able to procure a satisfactory estimate of the population of that portion of Buncombe attached to Henderson by the act passed at the last session of the General Assembly, have made the distribution according to the last census, and request the Board of Superintendents of the fonm-r County to pay over to the Board of Superintendents of the latter County such sum as they may agree upon as proper for ilie population detached. tid-'t T II E GLOI5 E, THE OFFICIAIi PAPER OF COXGIIKSS, AND NK.WSPAPK.lt KOIt TH K PEOPLE. It will he seon by the annexed extract from a letter of Gen. Washington to l):ivid Stewart, (l.ited New lork, lTtll Alarrli. 17'JO. that the idea of such a paper as I propose to make the I ; lobe originated in the wind ol the Kathcr of his . ountry . He said : -It is to be lamented that the editors of the different Ga zettes in the Union do not more (jetierally and more correctly (instead of stuffing their papers with scurrility mid nonsensical declamation, which few would read if they were apprised of the contents) pul'li.-h the debates in C ongress ou all jjrtnt national questions. The principles upon whicii the dilference of opinion arises, as well as the decisions, would then come fully before the public, and afford the best data for its judgment : sparks' W ritings ot w ashmgton, vol. 10, p. N4 The Daily Glolje and The Congressional Globe In surrendering my interest in the organ of a great political party. I cherished tne purpose of contiuumg the euugressional eilobe. and. if possible, in time, to perfect it into a full history of the action of Congress, giving the debatesaccurately andfuliy with t he proceeding.- all stamped with the verity ot au ome.iai record. rnin the passage of the letter of General vv ashingtoii. wi-ieh I have quoted, it will be perceived that he thought this oftice might be combined with thai of a regular uewspaper; aud it is certain that the avidity of the public lor news of the less important kind greatly contributes to give wings to the weigh tier matter which m;iy be called e ougressional news. Having succeeded iu my pnrpose ot perfecting the reports of the debates in Congress and giving them ine official Manip. 1 now propose to send them abroad. In connection with the uews of the day. in such haste as shall outstrip full and accurate in telligence sent from the seat of Government in any other form whatever. It will even anticipate the scraps of news forwarded to cities within two bun red and fifty miles of Washington by telegraph, before the events thus transmitted are published in the morning papers, (for instance, of the city of New lork.) the tilobe containing them will have reached the post office ot that city by the express .tinil of lhe previous night, 'i he pro cess by which this will be effected. I now lay before the public. 1 have a corps of sixteen iteporters in Cougress ; each in suc cession will take notes during hve minutes, then retire, prepate them for the Press, put them slip by slip in the hands of com positors, and thus, while a debate is going on in congress, it will be put in type, and in a few minutes after it is ended, it will beiu print 1 shall by this means lie enabled to send by the Express ...ail of o'clock p. m. forthe East. v est. and iNorth. and by that of 9 o'clock p. m for the outli. all the proceedings of Congress np to the orilinary hour of adjournment, i bus the accurate debates of Congress will reach tne cities two hun dred and fifty miles from the Capitol before their daily morning papers are in circulation. i he miscellaneous news I ehall be careful to gather from re mote sections of the country by telezranh. I will obtain from the Executive Departments, through official sources, the matters j of moment transacted in them. aud. through a&ents employed I tor the purpose, ail the city news of consequence in sulticint time to be put into the Globe and mailed in the Express t.ail trains. In tnis way I nope io rreaie a new era 1 . . , i . Hitherto no newspaper has nation ot news from Washington. attemoted to eive authentic accounts of things done at W ash ingtou before the public mind at a distauce had received its first impressions from irresponsible telegraphic dispatches, or by letter writers biassed by peculiar views. Washington h is now become so great a center of political in terest during all the year the proceeuings oi ine r.jiecuuve Depaitments and the information collected by them even during the recess of congress is of so much importance to the interests of every section of the country that I shall continue the publi otionof the daily paper permanently, with a view to become the vehicle cf the earliest and most correct intelligence. It is part of my plan to reduce the price of the daily paper to hall that of similar daily papers ; and thns 1 hope to extend its circulation so as to invite advertisements. 1 will publish adver . . ,.r ih iirirrnment. To subscribers iu the cities I hone to submit such termsas will induce them to advertise their business in every village throughout the Lnion. where IheGlobe is sent daily under the franks of members of congress, all of whom take it. and some of them a large number of copies. lbe installation of a new Administration and a new ( ongress portends much change ia the course ot public aff .irs as the re sult of the next session. Many vast interests which were bro t np in the last Congress were laid over by the Democratic msjo. ity to await the action of a Democratic Executive. The new modeling of the tariff; the new land system; the question of giving homesteads, and making every man a freeholder who may choose to become one ; the approximation of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans by a national railioad across the territory of tbe Union; reform in the Army, Nstjt od civil offices all these great questions, with a thousand minor ones, deeply affecting multitudes of men and every State in the C Dion, will, now being matured by public opiaion. come up for the Government's de cision, 'these new issues, co-operating with old ones, coming up to be disposed of by new actors on the scenes at Washington, will be apt to modify great!y. if not alter essentially, the party organisations of tbe country. - To these elements of interest another is likely to be intro duced by tbe interposition of the agitations ot curope. After nearly forty years of peace in Europe there is an evident rest lessness that now seems frar-ght with tendencies threatening war ; and if war comes, in ail likelihood there wilt follow such universal change that tbe United states can scarcely hope to escape its rortex. Indeed, from late events it is apparent tbat our Government is already drawn into European difficulties, i hese ci cumstances are calculated to draw the public mind towards tbe next Congress with much expectation 'i he Daily Globe will be priuted oo fine paper, donble royal size, with small type, (brevier and uoupareil.j at five dollars a year. 1 be Congressional wiooe wtu also De printed on a double royal sheet, in book form, royal quarto size, each number containing sixteen psges. 1 be Congressional Olobe proper will be made up of tbe proceedings or congress ana tne running aeoates as given by the Reporter Tbe speeches which member may choose to write out themselves will, together with the messages of the President of tbe United States, the reports of the Executive De partments, and tbe laws passed by Congress, be added in an Ap pendix, r ormerly I received subscriptions for tbe Globe and Appendix separately. But this has not been found satisfactory.

Congress passed lasi year a joint reso lution making it free of postage.

Approved Auguslo, 1Su2. As I sell the Daily Globe at half the price of similar publics tious.se the congressional Globe and Appendix is sold lor half the cost of so much composition, press-work, and paper. J Ins I can afford to do, inasmuch as the subscription ot ongress al most covers the cost of competition, aud this enables me to sell tor little more than the cost of press-work and paper. It re quires the sale of about U.bOO copies to reimburse expense. If ooO only were sold, the cost of each copy would be about $104 ! '1 he debates iu the English Parliament cost about eleveu tunes . as much as 1 charge subscribers for the debates in Congress, equal in quantity, aud a well reported and printed. J he next session oft ongress will be a long one ; and it i be lieved the l ongressional tilobe for it will reach 4. OOO royal quarto pages, as the last long session matte 3.
