EDITORIAL DIFFICULTIES. The difficulties under which the Editor of a daily paper labors, is graphically described by the follow ing extract, which we take from our worthy co tempo rary Wil. Heiald. It is so much to the point aud suits our case o well, that we have nothing to add. Eeighty minutes to write and set up three-quarters of a column, is too short a period of tiraw altogeth er. Here is where the daily editor is subject to dis advantages, hlah are scarcely dreamed of by hiai who publishes but one paper a week. A u-rrkly editor has one whole week to prepare an article, look up tacts, read, write, and, if it don't suit when written, re-write or discard altogether and begin a new. A daily editor, on the contrary, lias in many instances scarcely one hour to collect his thoughts aud put them on paper , and while hard at it. with -linr 0 s weary and worn,'" and brain liai r a.Ml-.-J by the ra. pid flight of timo, with the "impending crisis"' (hour of publication) drawing near, he is repeatedly be. deviled for copy, whicii, in self defence, he tears off line upon line." not knowing, iu many cases, what has gone lie fore or what is to come after. Who cau rite -according to Hoyle"' under such circumstances ? We confess we cannot ; nor can any daily editor, be he who he may; No editor o. a daily paper can do himself full ju-tice ; therefore, if mistaken are dis.

Our friends of the Wilniin-'ton Journal have an editorial upon the time of the assembling of the District conventions in general and the 3rd in war I ticular.

We believe that Sampson will hold her convention on the coming week, there will remain, Duplin, Bladen, Richmond, and Columbus, to hold meetings aud appoint dele gates. We feel at liberty to speak for the Democracy of Cumberland, so far its to say, they svill agree to any recommendation of their sister counties as to the time and place, for oursclf we would prefer Fayette- j etteville or Wilmington as the place. The Express and the Prince De Join ville. Our sprightly cotemporary, the Petersburg Ex- press, has a vers" excellent artiele on thn slmvu named once fire eater of France. By the way friend Express, how did you discover that the Prince Dc ! and Riggs, of New Jersey, will unite with the na Join villa has no wife? If our friend will look at it tional democrats, these four are anti-Lecompton a little closer be svill find that the Prince was raw- j democrats, and it is believed they will vote for the ried a number of years ago to the sister of the pres- j democrats if the Southern Americans will cast their cnt Emperor of Brazil, and so far as known she still ', entire vote for a democrat.

We would further add, that the Duke De j Black Republicans thirteen of them having left Nemours is not the legitimate heir to the Orleans j Sherman and gonc over to him. throne of France, but the young Count De Paris, son of the deceased Duke De Orleans, eldest son of Louis Philippe. Is it not so, friend Express. The RroiiT Spirit We learn that it is in con. temptation by our friends of Clinton, Sampson co., to organize n military company, to be equipped in home manufactures. The coats and pants are to be made of N. Carolina cassimere, and the caps to be procured in Charleston, S. C. That is one step in the right direction, and we would say to all our counties " Go ye and do likewise." May the pa triotic'example of Sampson speak louder and louder, until every North Carolinian will consider it a sa cred duty to wear and tear nothing but North'Car olina goods, or the products of her sister Southern Sta tes.

Count Cavour, as delegate to the Peace Congress, would indicate that Italy is not content, fjnd that her sons fret and chafe under their burthen of servitude. Napoleon has protested against the appointment of Cavour, hut this must prove impotent to arrest his power, and the weight which he must have in that assembly for no man in Kurone is so well acquainted with the grievances of the Italians or so deeply interested in their welfi upc as this chief. Then look at Garabaldi and his late declaration upon his resigning his com mission as General of the Italian forces. He declares that he will resign for the present only, to be pre pared to take up the sword again when opportuni ty arises. The whole thing is a mysterious web of diplomacy, for who would suppose that while the result of the war is as yet in doubt, that the old leader would leave the kingdom and abandon his' life's object ? It may be that this is a game un derstood by all parties, and that it is only necessay that he should resign to allow Napoleon to finish the programme so mysteriously cut short by him. Since this last procedure France and England have drawn mysteriously to each other in friendship un til we should almost be inclined to believe that were it not for the probable jealousy of Prince Albert, the bearded lip of Louis Napoleon would press those of tueen Vic. So kind is Napoleon turning towards the English that he took upon himself lately to write, personally, to some Liverpool merchants who had addressed a letter to hint upon the probable breach of friendly relations with the Government. Napo leon replies setting their fears at rest, assuring them of continued friendship and good will. It is well known that England is favorable to the j t.-i: 4 - 1,.... l-.-.f lutuau u.w, aim nimiFi n. iv i.....v ti.vj t ajrreeu wun t rance, upon a prooaoie semcuiuui 01 : all difficulties, by which the Italians are not to be burthen by a return of the Dukes of Modena, Tus cany anO. v.. iects.

This is Indeed a hackneyed topic, and T cannot promise my raiders that they will hear anything new, but it will sisfy my ambition, if they will only think my renirks jf and truet although destitute of novelty This topic ffords two perspicuous divisions. 1st why women should be educated, 2ndly, howathey ' should be educated. Does it sceit possible that this age should need enlightenment or stimulus on this su'ject ? Is not our land filled vith Female Seminaries of high grade, and are not parents fully impressed with the value of education to their daughters, when they expend yearly, hundrells of dollars in procuring them the most costly advantages 1 of eaiirse then I can pro mise nothing new in my humble and unpretending thought, particul li ly on a subject which has em ployed the pens of an Edgeworth and Hannah More for a century past. A view of the various duties, important parts, which women have to act in the world, will evidently prepare us to show what kind ation will fit them to tuihu those duties ' . , . . ' and act those parts witu dignity and propriety.

The debates in Congress have well exposed the character of Helper's book, the Impending Crisis." in which he is lor exrirnatin slavery by such unl.tsvful means as John Brown emplo3'ed. In 18oo, tlus same Helper, according to report, advanced, advocated the forcible intron duction of slavery into Nicaragua. In that year, according to the Baltimore Sun, he published a own, caueu "ine Land ot Uold : Jteanty vs. mo tion," with the imprint, Baltimore, Henry Tuylor, Sun Iron Building." The following are extracts, from the work : ''Nicaragua can never fulfil its destiny until in troduces negro slavery. "Nothing but slave labor can ever subdue its for ests or cultivate its un timbered lands. "Vrhite men may live upon its soil with an urn. brclla in one baud and a fan in the other ; but they can never unfold or develope its resources. May we not safety conclude that negro slavery will be introduced into this country before the lapse of many years : We think so. The tendency of events- fully warrants this inference.,' Ihere are many other passages, the Sun says, ex hibiting his then affiliation with slavery. In one place he speaks of the slaves iu California as tampe red with and "enticed by meddling Abolit'umtits" These facts go to show that Helper is engaged in the profitable game of making money from both sides, and shosv the value of his opinions and state ment on the subject. The Population of Bkownsvillk, Texas. Tn an explanatory article, on the late events in that city, the Brownsville Flag says that, though they have five thousand inhabitants, nominally there are not more than tsvo thousand five hundred on the census roll, and of these there are not over three hundred who are not of Mexican origin. In fact, there are now but thirty-four Americans, by birth, old enough to bear arms, to be found in the place. Now, the greater part of these five thousand are fugitives from Mexico, peones, ladrones, 6cc.t an idlo, vicious, depraved, ignorant and thievish popu lation, known by tho beneric name of pelados. It is. this miserable population, made doubly hostile by the long-continued warfare betsveen Texas and Mexico, and between tho latter and the United States, that is at the bottom of all the difficulty.
