These are tacts not commonly known to the public, but they are no less truths that can be proveu by calling any time at the manufactory, and examin ing the yankee jewelry.

"Wilmington, May 27th. , Dear Carolinian : Here we are after the most pleasant trip imaginable down the Cape Fear River. -n leaving r ayetteville it was not expected by our- selves that we should en ov the trip down the River, , .

After we had gone some fifteen miles ... , ' jt ir r n i adding to nnr romnanv onr friend R. M Orrell. who we uau me extreme pleasure tiL. L J i 'I is a perfect host in himself, so far as agreeableness 1 , , is concerned, and who, with Mr Collins, made the time fly merrily over. By the way we have always thought Mr O. a pleasant gentleman, and we were always surprised that though so great a favorite amongst the ladies he has not taken to himself one of the daughters of the children of men. Our friend E. L. Pemberton, Esq., was very pleas ant and jovial, indeed, as well he might be, for cer tainly he has exhibited to the world two necessary qualifications, viz : his good taste and sound judg ment in selecting an intelligent and agreeable part ner in this life. M'e were indeed sorry that we had not the good luck to have the acquaintance of Mrs P. before she changed her name. Ve arrived at Wil mington at 0 P. M. and proceeded to the Carolina Hotel which is one of the best houses in the State, having an agreeable Landlord and very excellent ac commodations. Mr and Mrs P. took, the cars this P. M. at 4 o'clock for the North, we can do no more than wish them a happy and pleasant bridal touri and many happy days of peace comfort and pleasure. This morning we called upon our friend Mr Fulton of the Journal, he is an agreeable gentleman full of pleasantly and wit. Mr Burr, of the Herald, is a fine young man, (we mean tlx Junior, for we had but little talk with tbo Senior). Mr Burr accompanied us around town to see the new Town Hall, find other public buildings, which are indeed, very fine, and an honor to the town and State. Simmons, who was convicted of murderinsr bis nephew, was banged to-day in this place The Rev. Mr Repiton made a fcelin" and 1 0 ing and impressive address upon the occasion. When Simmons appeared on the gallows he was quite calm and collected ; he turned to the vast assembly and said that he was guilty of the crime it was committed in the heat of passion ; he had gone to God 10 receive forgiveness, and he be lieved he was pardoned through the blood of Christ He then bid adieu to the Sheriff, and th:j gallows was left to himself: lie stood there Cuba n . o!:e. r-r7 some two minutes with the cap coveriug his eyes; at last the fatal drop fell, he uttered a low groan as- he felt the planks pass from under him. He died ,.., , . . . . ., .. very easy , not moving but tin ce Lines. The Wilmington Light Infantry, a'd the German Volunteers, attended the execution. Sneaking of Military, we were srlad to learn that 1 T . , , , , . , . . the Lai-ayttle Cornet Band had been invited to go to Chapel Hill, accompanying the body-guard of the President. Satisfactory arrangements have been made, and it is expected that on Monday, the Band will meet the Company at Warsaw. We trust the Baud will make it convenient to attend. S. Wilmin-gtox, May 30, 1859. Dear Carolinian : By the heading of my letter it will be seen that Wilmington agrees with me. I have made a considerable delay in this town, and have enjoyed the hospitable society of the citizens and brothers of the quill. On yesterday morning I was agreeably surprised to find the name of Maj. Brantly apon the hotel record, he having arrived t arly in the morning from his South Carolina trip. The Major is u jolly fellow, and makes good com pany. We learned from him that a whole family consisting of nine were poisoned in Newburg, S. C., , , T , , , . lns?t week- Tt was the w,,rk of a m'Sro Cok stigated and prompted to the commission of the i 1 .1 A vt c 1 ff,'UC throuSh th instrumentality of a white uian, a mechanic living in the place. The reason for committing this offence, is not known. On yesterday morning I went to hear the Rev. Mr. Grier ; ho preached a most excellent sermon from the words, 1 am not mad, most noble Festus." ! It was an able discourse, evincing a keenness of I perception and power of concentration seldom met ! with. The Hattie Hart arrived here about noon having on board Messrs. Roberts, Banks, Dodd and Arey, of the LaFayette Cornet Band ; also, Mr. Bariiiim, of our town, and Messrs. Norment and McQueen, of Lumberton. Although my absence fromTajT etteville has not been lengthy, retl was more than ordinarily pleased to meet these gentlemen. They are making preparations at present to leave on the 3 o'clock train for Weldon to meet the President. The returns from the Virginia elections show an Imposition gain. Letcher is no doubt elected, but the position of some of the Democratic papers in that State was the cause of his running so poorly. This can be seen by the vote given to Mr. Montague for Lieutentant Governor. He will be far before Mr. Letcher in numbers. This would be unaccoat able only for the fact that the Richmond Enquirer abused Mr. Letcher previous to his nomination and fairly charged him with Abolitionism. Of course it was from personal motives either positively in favor of some other, or opposed to him. The Convention of Columbus and Bladen coun ties held here the other day, was of course a fizzle, and like good Democrats (?) they got miffed because they could not do vrhat they had tried to do: You have no doubt seen the card containing their senti ments. The Brunswick county delegation was here, but refused to go in with the other two, from the fact that the other counties were ncit represented. The delegates from New Hanover were not even se lected, consequently, the result was the assembling of Columbus and Bladen alone. As to the result of this matter I do not know. It could not prove very disastrous, from the fact that Bladen herself is di- vicktl repoctir: ilr.

The following criticism of the military talents of Louis NTapoleon, by a distinguished Frenchman will in the rear from Russia, but not sufficiently to dis be interesting at this time. j turb France by any demonstration on the Rhine. In the political -.affairs of his Government Xapo- L 1 ! Icon has proved himself the ablest man in Europe, a full match for the whole British Cabinet. Only twice in the whole history of the Kingdom has France ever attained to the power and influence wielded by her ruler now, and is certainly to be more feared by the world than any other power. Louis Napoleon is entitled to the credit of this, if he was a Police Captain in Xcw York or an English i Constable : Let us also say a few words as to Louis Napoleon's military genius. All we know about it, is his plan in the last Russian war. It will be remembered that he and his faithful General in Chief, Arnaud, made the phi 14 of the attack in the Crimea, and that it was supposed by them that Sevastopol could be taken by a Coup de main. Omar Pasha before, single handed, repeatedly defeated the Russian aitny. The Allies had only to follow the glorious w:.y which Omar Pasha had already paved for them, and thus conquer, in less than three months, all Poland and all South Russia. But by Napo leon's plan, the allies wasted their forces in the well known inhospitable Crimea. France h -t, according to its war ministers's report, not less than 161,000. 314,000 were sent to the Crimea, and 146,000 men were loft, at the end of the war. It is well for the servile admirer of Na poleon to consider him a truly great man, but we may be permitted to doubt that a great man would have appointed such an iidventurer j as'General Arnaud was, to the Chief command, and agree with him on such a j dan, and would "'av,) taken I He Olie-Slueu ViCW Ol SUCll il Cilin 11 eh pnigii, mat dcviiniuiiui cuuai xjv; liiKeti tv m. , Coup de JMnin. Sevastopol was finally taken, ! and Napoleon was confirmed hi his greatness ; by all his servile admirers, who are till Brut uses i and honorable men. We must ask pardon if; we take a different view of Napoleon's great-1 ness from the general one. We may be totally wrong in doing so, but it will not do any In m to have it expressed on this occasion. Napoleon, like his uncle, strongly believing in fate, one would be inclined to conclude lie cause his uncle's glory ended in Russia, where the nephew's commenced, that the nephew's glory had also to end where his uncle's com menced ; that is, in Italy. A man knows what he is, but he does not know irhal he ic 11 Icmvie, said Shukspeare. Napoelon is now an arbitra- EC 1 d. -.1 k?uite. O1.
