This is not ouVlndividual opinion alone, but it i..
shared by multitudes of the inhabitants of this re-
gion, and notwithstanding the weight which is due
to these very respectable democratic papers, we are
coiijftent that two out of every three voters in N
Carolina would choose Gov. Wise as the next Chie
Magistrate of the United States. ;
c would beg the indulgence of our readers this
morning for the small amount of reading matter.
Our excuse is Christmas times. To-morrow we will

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

deviled for copy, whicii, in self defence, he tears off
line upon line." not knowing, iu many cases, what

We confess we cannot ; nor can any daily editor, be

editorial upon the time of the assembling of the
District conventions in general and the 3rd in war I

and Columbus, to hold meetings aud appoint dele

recommendation of their sister counties as to the
time and place, for oursclf we would prefer Fayette- j

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

unaccountable resignation of Garabai di, added to
the appointment of that gi'eat man. 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

FEMALE EDUCATION.
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. I lie

the best of Seminaries, where they can have every
advantage, both useful and ornamental, and when

particular attention to all their artilki.d bvanciios,
never once mentioning those solid ones, which alone,
when studied, can tit her to enjoy life and be useful.
This causes the n to study these branches diligently,
and become pvoiijient, for it requires but little exer
tion, comparatively speaking, while the useful ones,
which require every exertion, are attended to occa

tunes on the piano, and repeating a few French
phrases, and probably as little Latin, they arc term

incapable of carrying on a conversation on the most

should be the case. Shall God lavish his workman

IlELrEu Exposun. 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.
