THE NORTH CAROLINIAN FAYETTE V I L L E, N. C HOBTH-CAHOLINIAN. 7ayetteyilli:, n, c. Saturday, November 11, 1S54. lion. James f. Dobbin. In the "Washington Union of the 1th instant we lind the following' allusion to Mr Dobbin an! the 2sorth Carolina 'Senatorship : " It is well known that the name of Mr. Dobbin , and Seymour, the Democratic candidate, forty has been associated recently, by the public press ! four thousand, Clark, whig candidate, thirtv and in conversation with the senatorial luMiors j fi t,OINIIK, and Bronwii, Hard Democrat, soon to be conferred by the legislature of -N orth ! thonsan,L Carolina on two of her statesmen. It is also, j T)e COIltcst is tosc between Scvmour and iiernans e unuv wen Known mat lie is a ELECTIONS On Tuesday last elections were held in New York, Xew Jersey, Illinois, Michigan, andWis consin, for State officers, members of Congress, &c. The following is by telegraph to the Petersburg Express: In New York the election was for (Jovernof, members of Congress, &e. So far as heard from Ullman, the Know Nothing candidate for Go v- lernor, has received forty-eight thousand votes, gentleman of great popularity in his native State, and that li-' has hosts of friends who are enthusiastic in t!eir desire to elevate him to the Senate, for which his prudence, his sound judg ment, and eloquence so well fit him. We learn, however, imjii-irji, that the honorable Secretary has very recently written to his friends at home, desiring them not to present his name to the legislature as a candidate for an election to the Senate. We have reason cams to know, also, that the relations between the I'residuut, and Mr. D. are not merely agreeable, but are of that warm and friendly and confiding character which causes the President to be deeply solicitous that he should remain in the cabinet. We believe it will be conceded by all that Mr. Dobbin has administered the department over which he presides with impar tiality, ability, and energy; that his suggestive mind, animated by a deep interest in the navy, has already presented for consideration reforms calculated to infuse a new spirit into our gallant navy, and make it truly "a right arm of defence." North Carolina may well be proud (f her son, and well may the President be happy to retain tin; benefit of his prudent counsels, his ardent friendship, and his untiring energy." Wo have information that corroborates the above. At the solicitation of President Pierce Mr Dobbin has resohed to remain in the Cabi net and share the fortunes of the Administration. He, therefore, does not wish to be considered a candidate before the next Legislature for one of the United States Senatorships. That this announcement ill disappoint many ardent friends of Mr Dobbin in this State we have no, doubt; but it is certainly a source of pride and congratulation to the democracy of North Carolina to know that her favorite son is held in such high estimation by the President of the United States and by the country gen eral 1 v. Although his friends would be gratified to have him in the Senate, we think that it will be entirely satisfactory to them for him to remain in his present exalted position in the councils of the nation, believing that there arc vet greater honors in store for him.

Put slight returns have been received from Wisconsin, which show Anti-administration In New Jersey the democrats lose everywhere. In this city at 12 o'clock to-day the returns receiv ed are very meagre. The contest for Governor is now entirely between Ullman and Seymour. The former is still -ahead. Parker is believed to be elected Mayor. New York, Nov. 10. Sej'inour has undoubt edly carried the city. A Flimsy Excuse. "Whig papers endeavor to excuse themselves for not giving credit to those northern erats who voted for the Nebraska bill, becanse some of them have expressed a belief rthajj "under it- no new slave State will ever come, into the Union." Now, as we have before said, we don't care a straw what northern men think about the workings of the Nebraska bill their thinking that it is a "bill for freedom" does not make it so. If they are willing to support it, that is quite satisfactory. We think that it is a measure of justice to the South so does Mr liadger think so. Mr Kerr thinks that the south has gained much by the passage of the Nebraska bill, and the whole southern delega tion in Congress, with few exceptions, think the same thing. What need we care about the opinions of northern men, when they cau't affect our interests. If, by expressing such opinions. thry can subdue fanaticism at the nortn, them do it. lint we believe the northern demo crats wtm vntpfl for flieliill wpre netinf?

In the first and fifth districts the contest is close. "WISCONSIN". Milwaukie, Nov. 1. As far as heard from, the indications are that the fusion ticket is suc cessful throughout the State. ILLINOIS. Chicago, Nov. 1 As far as heard from, four fusion candidates for Congress are elected. The above is doubtful, as it is thought that suf ficient time had not been allowed to hear from more than one district in Illinois previous to sending the despatch. 1 Ue-eataMfahment of the Kingdom of Poland. J It is said that France and England have un der consideration the re-e.stablishtnent of the Kingdom of Poland as an independent pOwef. Nothing, we believe, has openly transpired to lead to this conclusion, bnt various indications seem to justify it. If Sebastopol falls,, and the Russians arc defeated at every point, it is con tended that the Czar will not be humbled, but that it will awaken and rouse the national feel ing of his subjects, and instead of weakening him, will greatly tend to strengthen and en able him to prosecute the war with renewed vigor. The Czar knows that his country has lived through repeated disasters, and her influ ence has not diminished but increased. So tak ing everything iutoeonsideratioii, it is believed that the re-establishment of Poland as an inde pendent power is the only thing that will make Nicholas come to terms. Such a stroke of policy, no doubt, is a favorite project of Louis Napoleon, who hopes thereby to cripple Rus sia's influence over the German powers, and as the influence of Russia diminishes to build up that of France in its room.

TOE LEGISLATURE. Tire Legislature of this State will convene in Raleigh on Monday week, the 20th instaut. The session will be an important one, and in order to give all an opportunity of informing themselves in regard to its acts, we offer the Carolinian at the following low rates: For 3 months, 50 cents in advance. For 6 months, 1 dollar " Three months will probably include tue ses sion of the Legislature, and G months will in clude the 2d session of the 33d Congress, which assembles in December. Illness of Mrs Hamilton. We regret to learn that Mrs Hamilton, the venerable widow of the illustrious Gen. Alexander Hamilton, Secretary of the Treasury under the administra tion of President Washington, is lying danger ously ill at her residence on New York avenue in this city. This lady has attained the ad vanced age of ninety-six years. Wash. Union. Homicide by a Member of Congress. The Alabama papers state that the Hon.

Mr Cade informs us that he is the oldest in habitant of Fayetteviile, having come to the place in that there is not a solitary individual now living here that resided in the town when lie first came to it. This shows that our population has been a changing one, caused, no doubt, by the numerous destructive fires the town has sustained. Notice. Within the last few weeks we have received several advertisements from the North, from persons unknown to us, requesting their insertion in the Carolinian, promising to for ward the money as soon as the advertisements appear. We respectfully inform all such that we can't trust them. The money must accom pany the advertisement or it will pass unnoticed. Last week we received a long advertisement from a man signing himself "J. Holbrooke, Sec." of the American Artists' Union, proposing to do a great many things that he has no idea of ever performing. Mr Holbrooke, nor any body else, shall not us? the columns of our paper to humbug and deceive the public. jf;We would have published the communi cation of "Junior" had the writer sent us his name.

The annual meeting of this company was held in Raleigh last week. From the report of the President and Directors, we learn that the en t're receipts of the company for the year ending 30th Sept. 1S54, have been $238,410 21. Ex penditures on all accounts, including dividends, sloU.TOl 1)7; leaving $78,708 24. The receipts from freight, passengers and mail, were $173, i23 77, and the current expenses $70,530 9t, showing a profit on the year's bushiest of $103, 302 81 or over HH percent. L. O'P. Branch, Thos. Miller, Geo. W. Mordecai, and Dr. J.W. Hawkins were elected Directors on the part of the stockholders, and Gaston II. Wilder, John G. King, and Dr. E. II. Crudup were appointed on the part of the State. The Directors re elected L. O'B. Branch President, and W. W. Yass Treasurer. The company resolved to transport guano and other manures at a reduced rate; barely enough to pay expenses. The late State Fair. The Raleigh Spirit j of the Age, speaking of the premiums awarded at the recent State Fair, says : Complaint is made, and in some instances, justly, no doubt, that justice has uot been given to many competitors. We arc sincere friends of the Fair, and speak from a pure motive, and with no disappointments of our own, when we say, unless there is less of favoritism, cJ'ujucing and partiality, the enterprise must fall to the u;round. Premiums by the dozen are awarded to some, no matter "what they exhibit, and others equallv deserving are not even made honorable mention of. We do not wish to say more, but candor and a sincere desire to keep up the Fair, impel us to say thus much. Let the objections here suggested be guarded a irainst in the future." t-Jr Thursday the 30th inst. is Thank.' day, .as published last week. riving 1-3?" The difficulty between the South Carolina Railroad Company and the P. O.

Real estate is not quite so high in New York now as formerly. It is stated that stores which "could only be rented on the 1st of May at eight thousand dollars per year, are now offeredat four thousand, with no takers. Barnum and Hcmkuggery. The great hum bug Barnnm is publishing an account of his humbugging operations by which he has deceiv ed the public and raised himself from penury to aflluencc. The confession of deceptions long practised certainly ought to subject the confessor to public execration. Bnt as Barnnm is now a wealthy man, and cares very little for frowns or smiles, his past disregard for truth and fair dealing will be a matter of sport and lauirhter. By countenancing snch hypocrisy will not a bad example be set the youth of the present day, and cause them to pursue a similar eom-se in life to accumulate wealth. Barnum's autobiopraphy is soon to appear, and we pre same it will be greedily devoured by the reading nublic. but we entertain considerable doubt whether it will contain as much truth as false hood; for a man who is mean enough to deceive another, and then give the act publicity, is not entitled to much credence for his statements JK2T"Thc annual meeting of the stockholders of the Commercial Bank of Wilmington was held on the (Uh inst.

The superintendent of the U. S. census, Mr DeBow, has issued a compendium of statistics, from which we glean the following interesting facts: The area of the United States has increased from 820,028 square miles in 1783, to 2,9G3,GGG in 1854, being more than a third of the area of North America, and equal to the Roman Em pire or that of Alexander in her palmiest days. The States and Territories have about an equal area; the slaveholding States have 851,508 square miles, non-slaveholding 012,597; 1,070, 077 miles arc north and 960,089 south of lati tude 3G deg. 30 inin. Six States and territories arc larger, as large, or a little less than either of the powers of France, Great Britain, Austria, Prussia, Spain, or Turkey. Eight of the larg est states are equal to the 23 others in territory. The population of the United States in 1775 was 2,803,000; in 1S54 the population is esti mated at 26,500,000; number of persons to the square mile in 1850, 7.90. In the last ten years the increase of white population was in the slaveholding States 34.26 per cent, in the non-slaveholding 39.42. The greatest increase was made in Wisconsin. The average excess of white males at each census over females has been about 4 in the hundred, the females being always in excess in New England. The white males of 21 years and over in 1852 were 5,222, 314; the popular vote cast about . 3,170,000; foreign born voters 371,839. The largest pro- Li cir Li iof ftHHiteiVi in in Wiuconoiij uuil flniTT5 p r sota, being about one-third of the whole; the least proportion is in JXorti Carolina, being 1 to 229 native. If the United States increase in the next hundred years as fast as in the last 60, the total population would be 448,159,670. In the slaveholding states 13 free colored per sons in every ten thousand arc in jails, prisons or penitentiaries; in the non-slaveholding 28 in every ten thousand. There are 1,449,075 farms and plantations in the United States, averaging 203 acres each, and of the value, with implements, each $2,362. About one-thirteenth of the whole area of the organized states and territories is improved, and one-eighth more is occupied and not improved. In the south 16 acres in the hundred are im- iroved. The average value of occupied land in the southern states is $5 34 per acre. The value of the agricultural products of the U. S. in 1854 is estimated at $1,600,000,000. Thirty three millions acres of land are in meadows, 11 millions in wheat, 31 in corn, 5 in cotton, 2 in potatoes, &c, 113 millions in all crops; there are 74,000 planters producing over 5 bales of cotton each. There were in 1775 thirt--fivc newspapers, in 1850 2,526; 855 whig and 742 democratic; circulating annually nearly 500,000,000 copies.

We have several times heard of a spotted negro man belonging to Mr. A. F. Bruce, of Saline county. A tew days ago we called to see him. His master informed us that the negro is about forty-fi vc years old. A t twelve he was copper color all over; at twenty years of age he was spotted like a leopard; since that time he has been white nearly all over. He is now undergoing a second change the black spots increasing in size and number. The parts of his skin which are white are very white and clear, and as smooth as the skin of any laboring white man. 1 lie veins in his arms have the same blue appearance of those of the fairest skinned white man. The hair and features show that he is an unmixed African. He is stout, and always has been healthy, except a rheumatism in one leg, which is of late origin. In the hands of llarnum Joe would be a fortune. Lexington (Mo.) Express. The Bible.

The fact is announced by a learn ed committee of the American Bible Society, that the received version of the Bible published by King James, contains errors no less than twenty-four thousand in number. . The Fashions. The New York Times gives the following as the fall "agonies" for 1S54 : ' "The fall fashions for geutlemen make a sen sation. Hats have a fringe that reminds yon of the eyes of the horsed owl, and coats have changed into long-tailed surtouts very nice in themselves, but sneh articles as a Broadway exquisite would hare made merry over last year. Taylors and hatters have conspired together, and the results are funny. The young 'bucks' are conspicuous objects, just now."
