0 THE NORTH CAROLINIAN, FA Y E T T E VI Li E, N. C. NORTH-CAROLINIAN. FAIETTEVILLE, N. C, Saturday, October 6, 1S55. Georgia. Election. Columbia, October 2. '-Returns from 55 Counties indicate tlie'eleetion of Johnson, dcm., for Governor, and show that A. II. Stephens and Howell Cobb, democrats, are certainly elec ted to Congress. The result as to the other Congressional tanditates is as yet uncertain. Coixmhia. Oct. 3. Sufficient returns have been re ceived to indicate the election of Herschel V. Johnson, Democratic candidate for Governor, by at least 5000 majority. The Congressional delegation will probable stand three Know-Nothings, and live Anti-Know-nothings! t&" We sec that the Executive Committee of the Fayetteville Female High School are furnishing the building iu order that it may be ready by the 15th, for the reception of Stu dents. Several of the Faculty have been elect ed. The selections thus far consist of two from each of four denominations Methodist, Pres byterian, Baptist and Episcopalian and further selections will be m the same ratio. When completed, the names will be published. The Yellow Fever iu Norfolk and Ports mouth lias considerably abated, but there are a few new cases occurring yet. Ou Monday in Portsmouth there were 11 deaths and 10 or 12 in Norfolk. The fever has Point. made its appearance at Old fiST" The Yellow Fever has again made its appearance in Montgomery, Ala. It broke out among the members of the Relief Commit tee, an association similar to the Howard As sociation, several of whose members have fallen victims already. It is surmised that the dis ease slumbered in the clothing worn by these parties during their tour of service last fall, and has been brought out by the assuming of" this apparel upon the return of the fall season. The fatal cases have been scattered through the town, and are so far mosth' among the members of this band of brothers who braved the disease during its last visit. A new Post Office has been established iu Moore county, called "Curriesville," on the road from Carthage to Centre. Powder. The article of Powder has consid erably advanced iu price, owing to the war in Europe, and the fact that the belligerent pow-j 1 I 1. A. 1 . .

Some idea of the inconsistency of the know-nothing leaders may be formed from the fact that Jeremiah Clemens, (who recently wrote a long letter favorable to the know-knothing party, whichwas published by the papers in the interest of that party,) sent his daughter all the way from Alabama to Washington city to have her educated in a Catholic School ! Mr Clemens is preaching against the Catholic Church, and in -practice he is enconracrinir and assisting it bv natronizimr its schools, although there are -trsiox in Pennsylvania. It will be seen by the following address, issued by the Central Committees of the whig, republican (free-soil,) an "American" (know-nothing) parties, that the three parties have united iu order to defeat the democratic party. We cail on southern people to see how this address talks about "opposition to the national administration," the Nebraska bill, and the "pro-slavery Nebraska (democratic) candidate," and tell us which party they would prefer should triumph at the North, the democratic party or the know-noth ing party combined with all the enemies of President Pierce and liis administration ? Know-nothingisr and all other isms will al ways be fou id opposing democracy. Here is the address: " To the People of Pennsylvania: The Whig party, the Republican party, and the American party, having each nominated a candidate for the office of Canal Commissioner, it became apparent that such a division of the elements of opposition to the national administration and its Nebraska fraud would enevitably lead to the triumphant election of Arnold Plumer, the pro-slavery Nebraska candidate. In view of these facts, a meeting of our res pective Central Committees of said parties was held at Harrisburg ou Thursday, the 27th of September, 1S55, and their nominees having declined and been withdrawn, Thomas Nichol son, of Beaver county, was nominated as the candidate of the said parties for the purpose of concentrating the votes of the Anti-Nebraska party on one man, and he is Itereby earnestly recommended to all the lovers of freedom iu Pennsylvania, as a capable, honest, aud true hearted man who is worthy of the support and confidence of the people. By order of the committees, JOHN A. FISHER. Chairman Whig State Committee. LEMUEL TODD, Chairman of the American State Committee. DAVID WILMOT, Chairman of the Republican State Committee Bear iu mind that the democratic candidate for Canal Commissioner is styled a pro-slavery man, aud to defeat him is the maiu object of this fusion. How do southern Know-nothings like their northern brethren now? Sz& The probability of a war between the United States and Denmark with regard to the tax on vessels entering the Baltic sea, called the "Sound Tolls," is being discussed by the papers generally in this country and iu Europe. The U. S. notified the Danish government on the 12th of April last that these tolls would not be paid by this Government after the ex piration of one j'ear from the date of the notifi cation. The Danish government has signified her intention to continue to exact tribute from IT. S. vessels, and unless the treaty is renewed the tax will be increased. The injustice of ! the Sound Tolls is acknowledged, we believe, by most all other nations, and their sympathy is with this government iu the matter, but whether they will all remain neutral, if we get into a war, is doubtful. The N. Y. Journal of Commerce, says of the affair: "A great deal may happen within half a year to modify the views of the Court of Co penhagen; but the respective positions which Denmark and this country now occupy towards iust as "-ood 1 eac" oiner, must inevuamy leuu to a war, it a J o ; r . .-. .

Democrats are sometimes falselv Robeson Superior Court. The Superior Court of Robeson County was in session last week, his Honor, Jno. W. Ellis, presided. In consequence of the indisposition of Judge Ellis, who was suffering from severe cold in the early part of the week, there was not much business done on the Civil Docket. A legal friend has been kind enough to furnish us with the following account of an important trial that took place. The case that excited the most interest during the week, was that of the State vs. Daniel Mc Kinnon, Peter McEachen, Jesse Bethea, and some twelve or fourteen other defendants, who acted as jurors to try a case of " Forcible En try and Detainer" between "the Trustees of "Floral College" and Col. Alex'r Watson. The jury summoned to try Watson for forcibly detaining the Steward's Hall from the Trustees of Floral College as aforesaid, found the inqui sition true, and proceeded with the Sh prifF tn remove the defendant " bag and barira"-e " be yond the limits of the College, and placed the rrustcfcs iu quiet and peaceable possession of the same. For which measure the said AJexander Watson proceeded to indict them. and also instituted civil suits for damasres done to his property in the removal, and also sued out a "Writ of Restitution." The suit, for res titution and the indictment were tried at F:ill term, 1854, when the uirv found in favor of Watson in the first case, and found the defend ants guilty in the last, from both which iudsr- ments the defendants appealed to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court dismissed the suit for restitution, and granted the defendants a new trial on the indictment. When the case was called at this lcrm of the Court, the prosecu tor, Watson, moved to continue the case for the absence of John Ij. Fairly, who he believed to be a material witness on behalf of the State, but the Court refused to continue the cause, when after four challenges hy the defendants, the jury were empannelled and the following witnesses sworn, viz: Alex. Watson, M. Pur- ....11 r..x-:n it t -w t ... . . tun, ivu.il i iiiceiu, n. j. .icijean, ji. j. iuc Nair, John Gilchrist, John Melnnis, John Mc Neill and Daniei McArthur. The Solicitor for the State, Rob't Strange, Esq., then read the bill of indictment to the Jury, and proceed ed to examine Alex. Watson, prosecutor and witness, who testified that iu January, A. D., 1X54, he was in the possession of the Stwards Hall, Floral College, when the defendants came to the Hall without his consent, turned his family out of doors, and threw out all his furniture that he was in the house and forbid them coming in that they were accompanied by the Sheriff that they kicked down the but those summoned that they were all there by the strong arm of the law. The Act of the Legislature of 1840-41 in corporating "Floral College" was then read, and the books of the Company introduced to prove that the Stockholders accepted the Char ter as granted, and also to prove, that the per sons who acted for the Trustees in getting out the warrant against the prosecutor were au thorized by them to act as they had done. Without any argument on either side, his Honor was of opinion that the evidence did not establish a lease or renting so as to vest iu Watson the exclusive possession of the " Stew ard's Hall" for his benefit, and being of opinion that the evidence did establish the fact that he went into possession of the premises to keep the Steward's hall for the accommoda tion of the teachers aud.scholars, and that the Trustees reserved a supervision and control over all the premises, it follows that the pos session of Watson was the possession of the Trustees, and they had a right to enter and remove him at any time, provided that in so doing they committed no breach of the peace. That he was unable to distinguish this case from the case of the State vs. Curtis, in which the Supreme Court held the law to be as he ruled in this case. Upon this intimation of his Honor, the coun sel for the prosecution consented that the Jury should find the defendants "Not Guilty," and entered a AW. Pros, in another case depending j on the same testimony, where Jesse .Bethea. Peter McEachen, and , were indicted for a forcible tresspass iu removing some of prosecutor's furniture from the College build ing. Thus has ended, with the exception of the civil suit for damages, a matter that has crea ted more excitement iu the neighborhood iu which the difficulty occurred, and caused more unpleasant feelings than anything that has ever preceeded it; for the sake of the parties con cerned, as well as the Institution with which the stand connected, we trust this may be the end.

A correspondent of the Standard speaks as follows of Mr Kerr's speech: "Next in order, we all assembled to hear the bugle notes and bounding eloquence of one who is not unknown to North Carolina nor the Uniou John Kerr. He enchained the undivided attention of his audience for nearly two hours, and although Mr Branch had covered most of the ground on the great question of the da', to wit: Know-Nothingisra and its vile tricks and corrupt dogmas, yet Mr Kerr, with an origin ality and force peculiar to his own, made a speech masterly, bold and .conclusive. 1 can not catch and send you the scintillations of his matchless satire, nor the bold touches of his biting wit; nor tell you how his patriotic elo quence stirred us all to new efforts against "data" and "Samivels," neither can I tell you the force or weight of Mr Branch's effort. ' I do not hope to do either. One point, I write mostly for is, and I glory to proclaim it, Mr htrr id in substance that it is his solemn con viction that the salvation of the country and the hope of the Union depended upon the success of the Motional Dcinocratie party. He fixed his name in the affections of the people and the hatred of Know-Nothingism." J5a?"" The wife and daughter of Chief Justice Roger B.

Hkai.tu of Fayktteviij.k. We learn from a letter received here, that exaggerated reports are circulated as to the health of this place, it being stated that the putrid sore throat is prevailing, fatally. We are authorised to say that that disease has not been known here this season. There has been much more than usual of sickness here, but it has been of slight cases of chills and fever. generally yielding readily to medical treatment. The i aths have been verv few. from any cause. ft title eral sympathy is with us, and that the cause of Denmark is only sustained by those who think that it would be impolitic to permit any great damage to accrue to that power. It has been currently reported, and the ru mor has gained a certain amount of credit with a portion ot the American press, that IjOuis Napoleon had declared his determination to sustain Denmark in resisting the just claims of the United States. Wc have seen nothing , " whatsoever, in any of the European papers, or -l ' 1 0 : - . . I I ' 1 . 1 - I in any irust, unity uocumeni,, witien can prop erly give color to the belief that either France or England would interfere iu behalf of so un worthy cause. There is little probability that our quarrel with Denmark will be interfered with pro vided the course pursued by the government at Washington shall be characterized by the same moderation aud wisdom, which have hitherto marked the progress of its negotia tions with that country. England and France have an even greater interest than we have in the abolition of the Sound Dues; and the commerce of both of those countries suffers in a higher degree than that of the United States from the old Vi-King tribune. The London Times, moreover, recently remarked that there never was a period when it was more important for England to maintain cordial relations with the United States than the present, and it de precated, in strong language, certain impru dences which had had a tendency to create es trangement. Prussia is with us, and the Free towns of Northern Germany look earnestly to wards the West and record industriously and with applause every fresh step towards succumb ing a tyrany from which they are also heavy sufferers. Even Russia wyuld not dare to re monstrate very seriously with our Administra tion, and if it should, its efforts to induce us to renew a treaty with Denmark, on terms similar to those that have existed, would be unavail ing. It is stated, in the news by the late steamers, that Austria has "offered her media tion"; but it is doubtful whether it would be of any avail, and perhaps nearly as doubtful wheth er it would be accepted." ilmtr fir Ann f li in A.m. .

John Melnnis, on behalf of defendants, testi fied that at the time of the difficulty between Watson and the Trustees, and previous thereto, there were from 75 to 100 scholars attending school, who boarded iu the Steward's Hall with the prosecutor that the Trustees allowed no one disconnected with the school to eat iu the College that Watson kept a boarding house iu the village at the time, and that all persons boarding with Watson, who were in no way connected with the school, boarded at Wat son's house and not at the Hall that the schol ars had free access to the hall that they slept in the College and eat iu the hall that the Steward's hall had always been kept for the Trustees, and the steward was elected an nually that Watson went into possession in January, 1853. ' J. B. McCallum testified that he acted as Sec'y for the Trustees when Watson was elect ed steward that instead of renting the hall for the year, Watson was to pay-the Trustees 15 per cent, on the amount received that ac cording to agreement, he was to furnish good and wholesome food, and provide comfortable sleeping apartments for the scholars that dur ing the time Watson acted as steward, he was appointed by the Trustees one of a committee to examine and report how Watson was dis charging his duty that some time in Dec'r, 1853, after another steward had been elected iu Watson's place, he had a conversation with him in reference to the hall, when he told him he would not give it up, that they would have to bring an action of Ejectment to recover the possession, and he would hold it three years ! that during the year the Trustees had notified Watson that his boarders, other than scholars, should not eat at the Steward's ball. The warrant vs. prosecutor was then read, signed by Peter McEachan, J. P., from which it appeared, by the return of the J ury endorsed on the same, that they found the inquisition true, that the prosecutor detained the hall from the Trustees. Reuben King, Sheriff, testified that the de fendants were unwilling to acton the jury wheu summoned that they were all summoned by him, and that they executed the judgment of the magistrate- carefully, without damage or force, and in a peaceable manner that they found the house open, and after his going in aud commencing to move the furniture, that he again called on defendants to aid him iu so doing that the prosecutor and his family were present and made no objections that he heard no threats made by the defendants that no damage was done to anything except spilling about a half pint of Jlour thai no one acted votes.
