A "McKetban's extensive Car- riage Repository and saw some of his excellent riding vehicles. Here a man can be accom modated with any style and at prices ranging from one hundred dollars to seven hundred and fifty dollars all finished in a superior manner. Those wI.o want something really nice to ride in ought to examine Mr McKethan's large assortment and we arc sure they can be suited, both in price and quality. These carriages are finer and more durable than those made North, and we venture the assertion that they cannot be surpassed anywhere in the United States. If anybody doubts this, wc ask them to go mid examine the work.

A New Qi estiox. A writer in the Wil mington Herald raises a rather novel question with regard to the eligibility of Mr Winslow to a seat in Congress. The following is the article: " Is he Eligible ? Is Warren Winslow eligible to a seat in the House of Representa tives of the United States ? The Constitution of North Carolina (Art. 4, Sec. 4, amended Constitution,) reads thus: No person who shall hold any office or J'i.ace of trust or profit under the United States, or (ivy department thereof, or under this State, or any other State or Government, shall hold or exer cise iinv other office or place of trust or profit, under the authority of this State, or be eligible to a scat in either house of the General As-j semblv. Now it is certain, that a Representative in the Congress of the United States from North Carolina holds a "place" both of trust and pro lit, cither under the United States, or under this State, therefore cannot at the same time be a member of the General Assembly. Mr Winslow is a member of tiie General Assembly, which post he can, I suppose, resign into the hands of the Governor, but he is more over, Spenker of the Senate, a position lie can not, I take it, resign, except to the Senate it self, and that bodv not being in session, nor likely to be before Congress meets, he must of necessity remain a member of the General As sembly. Is ft right that he should, if he could, vacate the office of Speaker of the Senate ? Suppose the office of Governor becomes vacant, how could a successor be found in the Speaker of the Senate: and suppose further, that the It is indeed a sad and gloomy. time in our loved and devoted citv: md how much the ra- lamitous visitation is increased in its In bv the inconsiderate flight and absence gious friends .aiiil the deprivation of their con solatory instructions and prayers in-tlie rofrtv where, death claims and seizes his yiiStinisP't leave to the: imagination of ;;the-: pariic"-triefcn Christian-- professors wIioHiav.esowaliJiMi;(i salubrious climae . and a less dangerous" tion. rjlTir y j We heard one of orir ministers say,who has not proved recreant to the high duties of his office, and who go; a willingly to thepbodes of woe and death, that he found a woman whose husband had jut died of the fever. ; She too was attacked, and, no one was tnere to nurse and comfort her. lie looked out, and"rthe neighbors had all gone their doors and win dows were closed.

The machine consists in a case two feet long and one foot wide, adapted to a bandof leather round the waist, buckled behind. The two iron rods, fastened to the case, support a small piece of wood on which the feet repose. The case con tains a simple and ingenous mechanism, similar to that employed to set an automaton. in motion. The mechanism is worked by means of a handle, which sets at work two large wings, ten feet long, made up of very thin caoutchouc, covered Committee at iiuinnicrville. - .j f.u--s .'n.fcvxiA'-.- T: . , " . - , . --s.

The various countries of Central and South America, Mexico and Cuba have an aggregate debt of o0, t88,2S0. The debt of the United States is 411 it down at 10,000,000, and that of British India at 48ioOO,000 making the total public or na tional debt of the world to be 1,102,029,480, : Xo Sects in Heaven.
