THE NORTH CAROLINIAN, FAY E T T E VI L L E, N. C. NORTH-CAROLINIAN. FAYETTEVILLE, N. C. Saturday, Xvcmlcr IS, 1854. Superior Court ' Tiie Full Term of the Superior Court of Cum berland county was held during' the present week his honor, Judge Manly, presiding. We understand several cases were tried and a large number continued. On Thursday, Jonathan Baker, who killed Edwards some time ago near Rockflsh village, was sentenced to be hung on Friday the 1st day of December next two weeks from yester day. The time is short but the Judge, we suppose, took into consideration the length of time the unfortunate man has been -a waiting his filial .sentence, he having been tried and con victed some six months ago. A white man bT the name of Wester fvns convicted of larceny, bnt'wc understand he ap pealed to the Supreme Court. What's the Matteh ? We regret to learn that the people between Rarclaysville and Summerville are now without a mail. Papers and letters for Neill's Creek, Kinnie's Creek, and S'immerville, we suppose lie over at Bar claj'sville. Sometime ago a contract was made for supplying this section, but the contractor found that he bid too low, and we believe he now declines performing the duty. Will not the Department attend to this matter immedi ately? The mail that formerly supplied the above offices we think was carried mostly at private expense. Si:rr uE of Amkuicax Vessels. A letter from Havana, received in New York, reports the seiziireof two American schooners at Bara- coa, loaueil with arms. It is stated that one of the passengers was shot and the prisoned. Wilmington and Raleigh Railroad. The annual meeting of this company was held in Wilmington on the 9th inst. The past year the receipts of the road were $482,880 62; ex penditures (including $63,691 12 of interest and exchange) $354,917 85; showing a nett profit of $127,902 77. In a portion only of our last week's issue we published the officers elected for the ensuing year, we therefore re publish them, with the vote cast for President: President' lion. Wm. S. Ashe.

As our readers are aware, by several notices published, there will be a large number of applications to the Legislature of this State to emancipate colored persons. Probably a dozen from this section alone. We believe the two last sessions of the General As sembly refused to manumit any one, and it will be for that body to decide whether or not it will be sound policy at this time to give such applica tions a favorable consideration. By emancipat ing some- will it not "have a tendency to make others dissatisfied with their condition. Tiiaxksi";ivi xc Days. In Maryland, Wiscon sin, New Jersey, Florida, and Pennsylvania, Thursday the 23d inst. is to be observed as a day of thanksgiving; and in North Carolina, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Xew Hampshire, and Maine, Thursday the 30th is the day appointed. ComtECTiox. Soma time ago we stated, on the authority of a letter received in this place, that Hugh McQueen, Eo., formerly Attorney (Jencral of North Carolina, had been elected Judge of the 1st Judicial circuit of Texas. By the olVieial returns in the Austin Gazette, we learn that Mr McQueen was defeated by 139 votes, didate. M.

Kenan, Esq, of Duplin, represented the State in the meeting. As might have been expected, the whig pa pers are horrified at the election of a democrat, Mr Ashe, to the Presidency of the road, and some of them seize the opportunity to nse a little "small" language about Gov. Reid, State proxies, fcc. Next week we intend to publish a couple of articles from the Wilmington Journal, by which the other side of the question will be seen. Loss of the Ship "Xew Era." More loss of TAfe. The emigrant ship Xew Era, with 300 pas sengers, from Bremen forN. York, was wrecked on the night of the 12th inst, by going ashore at a point on the Jersey shore 16 miles from Sandy Hook. It is reported that only 150 per sons were saved. Later accounts state that the passengers were Dutch and German, and that out of 400 souls aboard, 248 perished. There were a great many who lashed themselves in the rigging of the vessel, and in this position they died. " Our neighbor, the North Carolinian (reply ing to this paper under the general term "whig papers,") insists upon it that the northern men who supported the Nebraska bill because they believed it would damage the South, are as much entitled to the admiration of southern men as our own members who supported it be cause they believed it asserted a right of the Sou t h ." Observer. Mr Kerr Sticks to the Point, The Greensboro' Patriot gives an outline of the Hon. John Kerr's speech .at that place a few weeks ago. Our excuse for alluding to Mr Kerr so often is, to show the public how far his opinious differ from those entertained by. the Observer and North Carolina whig editors generally, concerning northern democrats who stood up for the rights of the sooth in the last session of Congress. Wrhile Mr Kerr "thinks that they acted " ably and nobly," and there fore deserve our "admiration," whig papers pre tend to say thafr they are traitors, and merit the odium of southern people. : At Greensboro, Mr Kerr said he had been accused of deserting his party on this question, but let us see how the matter stands; there are 30 southern members of Congress, 21 voted for the bill and 9 were opposed to it. . Now (said he) "who desertcd'party, I, who voted with a majority of rny southern whig brethren, or those who did not?" lie found on entering Congress that the northern whigs (with few exceptions) were free-soilers all, but four, voted to give leave to a northern free-soil whig to introduce a bill to repeal the fugitive slave law. The X'ebraska bill (said he) " had been called Douglas' bill. If to have defended it with an eloquence and ability, which if equalled, has never been surpassed in the Senate of the U. States, can give Judge Douglas the right to this distinction, then does he richly deserve it." I concluding, the Patriot says: " He paid a glowing tribute to the northern men, who periled their political existence for the Constitution axd the rnjhts of the South, and concluded with an earnest appeal in favor of the Union as established by our fathers on the basis of equality." State Elertioitf. Below we give the result of the elections re cently held in the north and north-west. The news from Illinois shows a triumph for Douglas and the democracy: Bin Potatoes. -varies have been big sweet potatoes. The Journal says that it has been presented with one weighing G lbs. 1 ounce; but the Herald beats that all hollow, for it has received one which weighed seven and a quarter pounds. Can anybody in these , "digirins" show a larger the above? If thev can. 'tater than either of why let them do it Riot On the night of the 9th there was a riot in Williamsburg, X. Y., occasioned by a procession of know-nothings parading the streets firing pistols and guns and shouting. A few Irishmen, who offered no resistance, were terri bly beaten, but no one killed. The rioters threatened to burn a Catholic church, but on the appearance of the military they dispersed. The Observer is mistaken the above is not our position. We did not insist that the north ern men who supported the Nebraska bill be cause they believed it would damage the south, were as much entitled to the admiration of south ern men as onr own members who supported it because they believed it asserted a right of the south. If we thought there was a northern man who gave that bill his support on the ground that it damaged the south, he certainly should not have our admiration. But we insist that such men as Franklin Pierce, Judge Douglas, and Gen. Cass, arc entitled to our admiration because they supported the Nebraska bill as a measure of justice to the south principle gov erned them in the matter. They did not sur- port it because it damaged the south or benefit ted the north, but gave the bill their emphatic approbation in consequence of the great princi ple it contained, that of xon-ixtervf.xtiox; and for this reason, we said, southern men ought not to withhold their admiration from them. Neither of those gentlemen have ever said they support ed the Nebraska act because it damaged the south, nor have they done anything that would justly subject them to the charge so often made by the Observer and other whig papers. On the contrary, we think their whole course I justifies us in saying that pure motives actuated lem in battling lor our riiilits. It is unnecessary for us to refer our neighbor, the Observer, to the result of the recent elec tions in the northern States, to prove that the people there think that the present Administra tion favors the south too much that they con sider the Nebraska bill a pro-slavery measure, and the men who supported it as true friends of the south and her institutions. That knows all this to be so. Illinois. A telegraphic despatch dated Chicago, Nov. 11th, states that four Nebraska democrats have been elected to Congress, viz: Richardson, Harris, Allen, and Marshall. The election of Mr Marshall in the Gth district is a democratic gain, as that district is at present represented by Yates, a whig free-soiler. The State senate is democratic house doubt ful. It is thought Gen. Shields, dem., will be re-elected to the U. S. Senate. Massachusetts. The election took place on last Monday. There were four candidates for Governor Bishop, Nebraska and fugitive slave law democrat; Washburn, whig free-soiler; Wilson, regular free-soiler; and Gardner, know nothing & anti-slavery man. Gardner is elect ed. Bishop only received about 13,000 votes in the whole State. The Legislature stands house 341 know nothings, G whigs, and 1 democrat senate 3G know nothings and 1 doubtful. The congres sional delegation is know-nothing entire. paper Fcur Days t-aUr (mm Europe. The steamer Atlantic arrived at New York on the 12th, with four days later news than that brought by the steamer America. Cotton was steady but not changed in price. Breadstuff's had declined flour Is. Gd. to 2s. ; corn Is. to 2s. per quarter, JT.OM THE SEAT OF WAR. Private accounts are later. They say that two of the outer forts of the harbor probably the "White Tower," and an earth work at the quarantine fort were destroyed by the fire of the English and French fleets on the 11th. The allies lost 100 killed and the Russians lost 000, including Admiral Ramileff. The seige of Sebastopol was progressin slowlv. A small breach lias been made in one of the forts and the outworks silenced, but the Russians in a sortie spiked sixteen French guns. The Russian official report of the 23d says, that the garrison had made a successful sortie, and destroyed the French battery, spiked six teen French guns, and took (English) Lord Dunkillin prisoner. Mi: Soule axi the Fkexch Government. The London Times justifies the French govern ment's refusal to allow Mr Soule to pass through that country on his return to Spain. The Times also says that Mr Buchanan and Mr Mason regard the insult to Mr Soule as a na tional matter. It is rumored that Mr Mason has demanded an apology, which the Times says will not be conceded. The affair has given rise to much newspaper discussion, and the belief is generally enter tained that it will cause a serious difficulty be tween the American, and French governments. New Jersey.

From California. The steamer Northern Light arrived at New York on Tuesday last, with one week's later news than that brought by the Star of the West. She brings $565,000 in specie. A severe shock of an earthquake was felt at San Francisco on the 21st ult. The news from the mines is favorable. Walker, the fiUibuster, has been tried and acquitted. The Hon. Francis Granger has addressed a letter to the national whigs (?) of New York, calling a convention for the purpose of renovat ing the party. The letter says: "It is proposed to issue an address to the whigs throughout the State, in which the principles of the National Whig party will be plainly declared, expressing a decided opposi tion to the Nebraska bill as a violation of the Missouri Compromise, and adhering to the Whig principles established by the National Conven tion at Baltimore in 1852, pledging ourselves to oppose all propositions for the fusion of the Whig party with any other for the purpose of formTng a sectional party, based upon the agita tion of the day." The Fayetteville Observer, in speaking of this letter, says: "It is high time that the National Whigs, the Fillmore party, of New York, should make some movement to save tho Union. It may be even now too late; or they may prove to be less powerful than they ought to be; but we rejoice at any rate to see the effort made, and will heartily pray for its complete success." Are we to understand the Observer as hearti ly praying for the success of a party whose prominent feature is to be a " decided opposi tion to the Nebraska bill," a measure of justice to the South, for which Air BadgeT and Mr Kerr, two good North Carolina whigs, labored so hard to obtain? Come neighbor, let us un derstand you on this point. Wo be unto us if the Union is not saved un til New York whigs save it. New York. Horatio Seymour, soft or ad ministration democrat, is elected Governor by about 3,000 majority; Henry J. Raymond, fu sion whig, is elected Lieutenant Governor. The Assembly stands 82 fusionists, 38 democrats, and 3 temperance men. The congressional dele gation stands 27 fusionists and 7 democrats. New York Nov. 14. -Up to the present time we have received tho othcial returns ot sixteen counties. Taking as a basis the table of the Times, of this morning, which showed 279 majority lor Clark, we now, by the changes in the official returns figure out a majority for Seymour, of 4G7. Nearly every official return differs more or less from the first received. The majority, therefore, will doubtless fluctuate from one side to the other uutil every official return shall have been received. The opponents of the Administration assert that Horatio Seymour, the democratic Govern or elect of New York, is no better than Clark the whig fusion candidate. Of course no one who has watched the contest in New York be lieves this assertion. The New York Journal of Commerce, a neutral paper, and whose state ments are not apt to be influenced by party feeling, speaks of Mr Seymour in the following manner: " Seymour adopted without hesitation the Baltimore platform which rccocnized those measures, the compromise measures of 1850, and although not in favor of the bill establish ing Nebraska as a territory, nevertheless opposes the repeal of any part of that measure as unwise and inexpedient. llie country may well rejoice that this great State has elected" a Governor irho is against avy sectional agitation on the sub ject of domestic slavery." Free Xavfealloti of the Amazon Blrer. The free navigation of the Amazon river has ocenpied public attention for some time past. The subject engaged the attention of the south ern Convention which met at Memphis in June, 1853, and we presume that body, which is soon to re-asserable in Charleston, will again take the subject into consideration. It is known that; the Brazilian government interposes ob stacles to the free navigation of the Amazon rivcr-which shots oat a large trade that might be of immense benefit to this country and its inhabitants. Lieut. Maury memorialized the last Congress in regard to this matter, and in that memorial he states that " the Amazon is the largest river in the world ; and the great hydro graphic basin which includes it in its tributaries is unsurpassed for fertility; nor is there any where on the surface of the earth a region of country, of like extent, which can compete with this in capacity of production, or vie with it as to the variety, extent or wealth of its mineral resources. It teems with animated life; its soil is most prolific; and the display of riches in the vegetable kingdom is truly niagmhcent. 1 He Amazon and its navigable tributaries wash the shores of five republics . and one empire the empire owning below and at the mouth on both bauks; the republics owning m part tue main stream - and most of its confluents. Peru has jouereu tanus, teeu, uuu me iiiijin-iiiciii.-j vi Hus bandry, with a free passage across the moun tains, to any emigrant who will go and settle in that country." But no one accepts the offer, because the ordinances of Brazil will not allow any one to descend that mighty river with pro duce. In the valley of the Amazon four crops of corn are produced in a year, and the harvest of many other fruits is perpetual. . It is com puted that the territory which the . policy of Brazil shuts up against man's use and civiliza tion, is capable of sustaining, even with one round of harvests, a population nearly as large as that which now inhabits the whole earth. Methodist Protestant Conference. The Conference of the Methodist Protestant Church for the District of North Carolina met at Bradford's Church, Halifax county, on Wed nesday, 8th inst., and adjourned on Tuesday the 14th. Rev. Alison Gray was elected President for the ensuinjr year. Rev. R. R. Michaux was appointed to Fayetteville Station for the next year. The next Conference is to be held in Fa etteville on the Wednesday before the second Sunday in November, 1855. BSy.Gov. Morehead has succeeded in buying iron enough to complete the North Carolina Railroad at $42 50 per ton, paj-able in North Carolina money, which will be a considerable sav ing to the company. A short time ago railroad iron was worth from (5 to $72 per ton, but recently it took a fall, as everything will have to do, unless money gets more plenty. - The New York Evening Post says that Mr Soule, our minister to Spain, expects to visit the ?wited States wrtliin the next two months; and that on his return to Madrid an official apology for the Black Warrior outrage will be demanded of the Spanish government.

'The following ex tract is from a long article in the Albauy Regis ter, a whig paper, reviewing the condition of the whig party at the North, Read it: "The AVhig party of the North proposes no interference with slavery iu the States where it exist, but, in the language of Mr. Webster, in Ins speeen upon tne compromise, it is andahvays has been, "unalterably opposed to the extension of slavery into territory now free." It was opposed to the annexation of Texas?, it was opposed to the war of conquest with Mexico for the purpose of extendingsla very, and opposed to the repeal of the Missouri compromise for the same object. Every Whi member of Congress from the North was against it. For the purpose of opposing the extension of slavery therefore, there is no occasion for dis- hnnriiuff- the Whiir Party or for the organization L Hie aaaress by the lion. A. AV.

No, indeed, there is no necessity for disband-ino- the w hig party of the north for the purpose of forming an organization more opposed to slavery, for that party is now "unalterably" op posed to it even opposed to allowing southern men to take their property and inhabit territory acquired by the blood and treasure of all sec tions. Therefore, as this northern whig paper states, not a single whig member of Congress from the north voted for the Nebraska bill.
