He spoke of the diiference be tween our condition now and what it was ten years .-.iu'-e, and of the goodly heritage which we posses sed, where improvement on a solid basis without j-i .niogeiiiuire 01 any other thing of a kindred na I n e could be clfceted by every one.

Mr. ii. spoke of the erro-luou- opinions whi h prevailed with regard to the wearing out of lands, causing the removal of many pcr.-o:is lrom our midst to distant States.

The value of hi. I has been i i rc::sel tenfold, and the ero-.s are by no means impoverished.

Agri :ulUirc, although a science and an art, is not to be regarJcd as diili mlt or abstruce. Ho cited l'n.f.

Mr. H-dden alluded to the vast quan tity of ni,:.; stores, and timber upon her lands which is e iual to h bc-t. Ba spoke of the fertility of our swamp-lands in the east, and the produot?. n-i-s of the lands in the interior and west. The value of the cottm, tobacco, wheat and corn crops is greatly increased over last year, and this had act i. ).: s a s-limul is to our farmers. Mr. 11. then spoke of the Internal i.npiovements of o ir State ar.d the t lie t which they had produced upon the agricultur al world. The rapid strides which North C irolina had ina.le since the eur 18d, when the Raleigh & Gaston railroad was in a languishing condition. II. spoke of the successful attempts which had been maeo to b'lu 1 togjther tlie east and the west, what the Statu had pledged to do, and she never pledged herself in am. He spoke of w hat cemmon schools has done for cli'dJren in North Carolina. lie paid a glowing tri bute to the memory of our departed townsman, Hon. James C.

He spoke of the coal.lelus upon Deep vlv-r and the great good we would ito ourselves and the State by building our "Western Itailiuad and developing tlje resources at its terir.inus. He spoke of Agricultural and me chanic arts coniointiv. and the manner in which thev are linked together. Let the mechanic honor his vocation and ids vocation would honor him. Of course it is not expected that we should give mvthi.igiikeaf .il or accurate account of the ad l:ess. It was well written, well delivered and well eecived by ever one prescii .

We have been permitted to publish the following extract from a private letter written tq a gentleman in this place by a friend in New York City. From indications too obvious to be minconstrued, we are persuaded that too much cannot be written upon this subject now universally known as the " irre pressible conflict. " We have written frankly and freely our convictions upon this subject, have more than once raised our warning voice and admonished the South of her duty, and it now behooves the Southern community, in view of all these conceded facts tq watch well the future, and the proper policy to be pursued by it. But to the extract: Speaking of Old Brown, what a happy thing it is for tne gputh that he has been caught in a region where he will be made an example of to those black hearted thieves who carry off other mens property, aim p,ice so many highwaymen, would murder their owners.

By the wav, have we not a new corporation in this county called Lillington ? and may not confu sion arise. 7 Which location has priority of claim ? We think it would be better for thft qhe jatest in adopting the r,ame to leav the first in quiet posge sion thereof. There are any number of good names the world, but the good name, above all others, that which the new town makes for itself. We have no doubt that both c,f the Lillingtons wjjl fully earn that." The Lillington iiV our own county has made vast strides, and is now one of the most intel ligent, moral ana1 thriving villages that we know of anywhere. We find the the above in our cotemporary of the Journal, and copy it merely to inform c,ur friends that Lillington in New Hanover, should retain its name, inasmuch as it was the first to receive, hftt name. By an act of the last Legislature, it was de termined that should the county of Harnett select ;my other than Toomer for its county seat, Lilling- ton should bo t'ae name.

Several witnesses testified positively that the prisoner was at Har per' Ferry, and they had conversed with him, Mr Copeland saw him flush his rifle when iu the act of shooting a citizen. None know his name. The Judge therefore took the ground that "the requisition is legally and formally right, but no evidence is addaced to show that wo have in cus tody any man named Huzlitt, whom we oan de liver on this requisition. We are satisfied that a monstrous crime was committed, anil that the prisoner was there aud participated in it- Therefore wo recommit hirn to await tUo action of the Governor of Virginia."

Wise, that one of the prisoners be (Moore) took, assured him that "Brown's party was merely to commence the fight that three hundred thou sand men had enrolled themselves in this contest" nad they did not knqy what was coming. Beecher and Brown, As surely as Smith Gerrit Smith and Conspirator Brown have been linked to gether in the outrage at Harper's Ferry, so surely does Henry Ward Beecher belong to the'Catalinean scheme. Brown was his friend his familiar. Brown was his disciple. Brown was his " dearly' heloved brother. " Brown imbibed his teachings, and per haps his wine. Brown was Beecher in an Aboli tionist sense, and Beecher was Brown in the same sense. Democrats, it is now well to bear these facts in mind. "Week before last a stranger, calling himself Wm. J. Jordan, stopped in this town haying in his pos session a negro boy which he desired to sell or pledge for certain amount of money, which he was desirous of raising. Mr. L. S. Williams took the negro and advanced $700 on him ; Jordan pro mising tp redeem him in a short time. Last week a gentleman from Lincoln county, Ky., a Mr. Bu chanan, came on in pursuit of Jordan, alleging that he (Jordan) had stolen the negro from limn. Our town marshal, Mr. Harris, immediately went in pursuit of Jordan.

Parjs, 18th. It is asserted that the second treaty of peace will be signed to morrow, the decision of the King of the Belgians on the debt ol Loinbardy having reached Zurich. London, 19th,-The Post has a dispatsh from Paris, dated hist night, stating three dis tinct instruments will be signed at Zurich ; tlie treaty between France and Sardinia will be signed iu a day or two ; le tripartite treaty will be signed subsequently. The Times of tins morning states that tlie terms of the Zurich treaty are almost identical with those agreed to at Villairanpu, and that peace, as one of the questions, which disquieted Italy and Europe, seems settled. The morning Post says, "that assuming its information to be correct, the further proposals concerning the questions left open, which it is intended to submit to the approval of the Con- ore told that it is unreasonable ! In the same spii gress, are of such a nature that tho diplomatists it exactly, Giddings would call a bloody insurrec- at Zurich have only heaped up materials of fresh difficulties. Eiurland nan aud will take no part in any Congress, of which the first principle be not the recognition of the right of the liomagnesses and&uscans, no less than the Modeuese and Parmesan States, to self govern ment. The first cannon shot fired to force on the people of the Roinagna, Modena and Tus cany any other rulers than the Italian Prince, n whom they so fondly put their trust, will be the signal of a conflict as deadly as the oe .... . -c - just brought to a close." FRANCE. The report that France claims three hundred million francs as indemnity for the war from Piedmont is pronounced unfounded. The French Government having made advances to Piedmont, both before and during the war, tQ. the extent of 60,000,000 francs in arms, provi sions aud money, now claims only a rcinburse ment of that sum. Reports were again current of a probable change in the Ministry, Walewski and the Duke j ne i e in emeu i ut of Padua was eon- ri'l. .: i r sidered likely. NAPOLEOX AXD THE BISHOrS.

The Sardinian Government was seriously consid ering the expediency pf fortifying Brescia, Lonata and Cremona. The report that Naples has promised military as sistance to Rome is discredited, as the King of Na ples fears the invasion of his own territory. A revolutionary committee at Ferrara was giving the Austrians great annoyance. It was formed for the purpose of assisting Venetians to join the tional army.

He hus given the names ot the parties at Oberlin who induced him to goto Harpers. Ferry, and who furnished the money for his expenses, &c- He also states that a movement of a similiar character was con templated in Kentucky about the same time. Man; persons in Northern Ohio, whose names have not heretofore beeu mentioned, are directly implicated. The confession is withheld from the ' public untii after the trials are over, by order of Gov. Wise. I was shown to-day, by Mr- Johnson, Marshal Northern District of Ohio, a largo number of important letters implicating Gerret Smith and a number of prominent men ot Oberlin, Cleveland, and other portion of "Ohio. Among these letters is also the following ; Tribune Oijce, April 30, 1330. Mr. J. II. Kagi : Sir : Yours is received, ami we enclose our check for forty -one dollars for seven let ters from Kansas and two from Ohio. Yours, &c, Horace Greely & Co. Kagi was one of the killed, was formerly a cor-, respondent of the Tribune, and this letter is doubt less one enclosing his pay. There is also a letter from Captuin Brown to one of his sons, dated April lt, 15V, describing his visit to Gerrit Smith, at Petersboro', which he regarded as highly encouraging, and stating that Smith gave him one hundred and eighty dollars ; that he also, at his house, received a note wlu'ch he considered good for two hundred mon, and tliat Smith had written to his friends at the East that two thousand' dollars must be raised for Brown, of which he would agree to fivrnish one fifth himself. There is also the notice of a draft from the Cash' icr f the New York State Bank for one hundred dollars, sent him by 5iwction of Gerrit Smith. This is dated Albany, August 29, 285t. Paying for the Pr.ivil.ege, An Old School minister has given the pablic a abort chapter in the New York Presbyterian Herald, showing how sonic good people pay the minister for his services. Jle says ; "I preached seven ser mons at a certain church, spent fonr days from home, paid seven dollars for nj horae, i:d my reward was tlie waaiiily expressed thanks of the people and whatever ot fe5od the sermons may have done. A legal friend went and returned in the same boat with me, made one speech of an hour and a half long, and charged 200 dols for his time, labour, and expense, lie asked me how much I received for services. I replied that I paid 5 dols. for the privilege of render ing them His only reply was, for he was u wicked man, "Didn't you cuss the people before you left them ?" the; south upon tub harper's ferry insurrection. The voice of the leading organs of public opinion tnose slaveholding State which, from proximity tu the seat of the general Government, has reached us soonest, corresponds entirely with the expressed sentiments of distinguished Southern gentlemen from different quarters now in Washington. lt is the voice oi moderation and uf wisdom dif. forentas possible from that which the black-republj? can press is so fond of ascribing to those whom thev designate as "fire-eatGrs but equally different from the language of those who would lull tho South into fancied security while tbeywould drink its life-blood from its veins. They very naturally look Upon the outbreak at Harper's Ferry as nothing at all formidable in itself, But equally natural is it for even the umst sceptical to infer that the abolition infection, has corrupted what would otherwise have been found beautiful aivl healthy in devotion to the Constitution, and tli Union. Constitution. , , A republican journal iu Boston, says the Consti tution which has had so reputable a character as to be called " the steady old daily," actually thinks that at Harper's Ferry Brown carried the matter further than was reasonable !"

Norfolk Day Boofc The Concord Patriot denies authoritatively tha Franklin Pierce will, under any possible circum stances, allow his name to be used at the Charleston Convention or elsewhere, in connection with the.

A Scotch minister being sent to a country parish, was accommodated in the manse, but in a very small closet. On inquiring "Is this the bed-room?" he was answered ''Deed, ay, sir, this is the prophet's chamber." "It maun be for the minor prophets then." A young minister, dining after service with a farmer, found his appetite so keen that lie thought it necessary to apologize to his host for this very substantial dinner, 'You see, I am always very hun gry after the preaching." The old gentleman, not thinking his pulpit performance first rate, having heard this apology two or three times, at last replied, " 'Heed, sir, I'm no surprised at it, considering the trash that comes aff your stomach in the morning.' In the parish of Lunan existed a habit of slcenin" in church much to the minister's disgust, who on one unlucky Sunday afternoon endeavoured to stir ut his hearers by an earnest objurgation concluded i with the pointed fact, "You see even Jamie Eraser the idoit (who was seated in the front gallery, wide awake), does not fall asleep, as many of you are doing." Jamie, not liking either the publicity or th designation, replied, ''An' I hadna been a edeot, I wad ha' been sleeping too." l)r Macknight, who compiled the Harmony of the Gospels, was trfought by hjs country parishoners to waste his timeon these learned labours. On going to Edinburg to publish his book, the blacksmith was asked if tho minister was at home. -" Na ; he's gane to Edin-. burg on, a verra useless job ; he's gane to mak four men agree wha ne'er cast out." Another, far from, a popular, and far from a brief, preacher, being asked by way of hint of the intolerable length of his sermons, if he did not feel tired after such lono preaching, replied, "Na, na, I'm no tired ; but, Lord nbo tired the folk whiles are." Dean Ramsay's Reminiscences. We did vox see Qne. Although we have visited in several sections' of South Carolina and the Old North State, poany agricultural Fairs and similar Exhibitions, and looked upon many things and ar ticles on exhibition together with the one we now specially refer :to. yet during the Fair week just closed in this city we failed to detect anything of the kind either upon the Fair Ground or in the city, and we must acknowledge that we were no little sur prised Perhaps some of the Fxecutive Committee may be able to give us the reason why we did not see the thing we rtl it to. We are certain we did not see one upon the rrouhd or elsewhere a drun- i kard. This speaks well for Mecklenburg, Charlotte, ' especially. Charlotte Bulletin.
