My attention hoving been called to what apparent-
iv is an editorial in the. E. City Stale of Saturday,
16th June I say what is apparently an editorial,
because of its authorship being somewhat in myste-
rv and having also heard that .John Pool denoun-.
the lettcr cto Mr. Johnson, in relation to his
course while a candidate in 1S56V as false, I feel it a
duty which I owe to myself to' send fbr publication
the following certificates. I did not expect any-

Jan ,n his letter to Mr. Johnson
r t!Ieel k 1 ?tyi 1 owe Mr- Jo'rdan to state, that
have read the letter of his to Johnson, and I ei
lor.se every word of that letter, and it is' useless for
Pool to deny the facts stated. Mr. Pool in my pres
ence declared time and again, he would not if sclec
t d vote for any Western measure requiring an ap
ropriatio:i of public money,, denounced Mr. Jordan
n u.i measure 1 terms for so doing and held him up
j ridicule. I was the democratic candidate that
ear for this count3, and Mr. Pool inquired of me if
f endorsed Mr. Jordan's votes. I heard all the
pceches made in this county but one, and this was
.dr. Pool position, in each one. I also distinctly re
nember tiiaf he intimated once Mr. Jordan voted
.or these measures to obtain a Judgeship. Mr. Jor-
l in replied to that that no man suspected another"
intil he himself had crossed that line which sepera
tes honesty from dishonesty and I am sure Mr. Pool
never alluded to the subject again in my presence.
With regard to Mr. Jordan's position is society.
I shall a l l upon my own responsibility that I have
kn nvn Mr. Jordan from boyhood, he has made his
w.iv up to distinction spite of opposition, is above
suspicion an 1 stands above the mean attempts of
the pops of party to injure him.

Mr. J rd:m called upon us to give our recollection
of Pool's course in the canvttss with Jordan in
1 .-,!.
7 We he rfully certify that we heard Mr. Pool and
.iordsr. upon several occasions. And we know the
'.or len of Mr. Pool's speeches was to denounce Mr.
Jordan for tiie Western. Hail. Road votes ; and for
A'lcgr.nv County, Mr. Pool was very bitter and
pi- d.jr.'O himself to vote against all such measures if

would not have voted for any ot the measures W est,
Mr. Jordan voted for ; and if elected pledged him

J. P. Jordan having called upt.n me to state what
Mr. Pool's position was when he and Pool were the
candidates of their respective parties for a set in
the Senate for this State in 1836.
I hereby certify that I heard the discusion between
Jordan and Pool, as several places in the County of
Perq limans, and I distantly recollect the position
Mr. 1001 occupied in relation to the Rail Road West.
A d 1 know that upon each occasion Mr. Pool de-"c-lare.l
h mself opposed to the Western Rail Roads,
and denounced Mr. Jordan in unmeasured terms for.
Western extension and Wilmington and Ruther
ford Road. The State in this instance merely en
dorsing the bonds, and Mi. Pool went further and
sai 1 if elected he would not vote for any of these
measures- with an approp iation and wouldjnot have
voted for them if he had been in the Legislature
when Mr. Jordan was.
Mr. Jordan justified his votes, and said if he had
to vote over again, he would vote as he had done.

"For t Young Wives."
Under this head Mrs. Crowly gives some very
sensible advice.
We append the following extract :
"Consulting a husband's tastes is also the whole
secret of the art of "managing a husband. A wife
who acts upon this principle may be sure of having
the sime consideration extended to her, unless, in
dee I, she is married to a brute, or a very mean man;
and to such, at present, we have nothing to say. It
is easy to see, however, that few men could refuse
anything to a wife who kept their clothes carefully
brushed, mended and buttoned ; who provided their
pet dishes, let them read a four column congression
al speech, without interruption, and dressed herself
as cnrefally fur oae pair of eyes, as if she expected
to enc mater the adaiLnition of a crowd. Most men
admire taste and elegance in their wives, though
they sometimes grumble at the cost ; after all, it is
taste and tact that is required more than great out
lay, and wives should carefully study to have their
dresses unite svle, fitness an 1 taste, with the- ex-
oenditure pre per to tneir means.

those igrieu.tural products, in the cultivation of
wtHchl slave labor is generally employed. This fact
is well kuown to the fanatics, ioid several attempts
have b-'-n- made- to establish, free labor colonies in
these ions of both States Ore was actually es-tsbiy-gSl
fn 'Westeia rirginiM. and, jts.n. necessary
coieqiiice, a Black Republican Convention has
been held in that State, and delegates sent to
Chicago. In October last it was announced that a
Professor Christie, of Cincinnati, had purchased
110,000 acres, to be sold in lots to persons who will
engage in the raising of fruit and sheep ! ! Simul
taneously with this speculation, the infamous Helper
published an advertisement in (we tnuik) the Oreen
sboro' Patriot , stating that he was ready to purchase
ttco hundred thousand acres, pay cash lor them, for
the purpose of organizing free labor colonies in
Western North Carotins, of Course these colonists
would be entitled to representation in our Legisla
ture, and what their action would be, it is unneces
sary to state.
In November last, in alluding to these facts, we
raid that the '-John Brown" atf tir

Since then, Worth, an abolitionist, has been convic
ted of seditious preaching, and through connivance
a.wwK uiiisiiiuciiu r or two year
ed in its own columns, asks the A'tftcs, "Where are
tnose free-soilers who will thus take advantage?"
Is the liegoster answered ? When Black Republi
cans dare hold a Conve- tion in Virginia, and Wheel
ing send a BlaCK. Republican Senator to the Virginia
legislature, wnen tne nig eountyr ot tiuiltord,
in North Carolina, for two years shelters an aboli
tion preacner, when it is announced that the money
is ready for the purchase of hundreds of thousands
of acres in this State, for the openly avowed pur
pose of establishing free colonies, and when a can
didate for Governor declares "Unit lie i glad that
the negro begins to slink in the nostril of the peo
ple, we think it is time for those interested in slave
property to be on their guard. If such were our
recorded sentiments before the opening of the Gub
ernatorial campaign, it is almost unnecessary to
state what they are now. The s eeche; ot Me. srs.
Poole, Edward's & Co., and the editorials of the Reg
ister and its opposition contemporaries, have only
strengthened our convictions, that it is imperatively
necessary that slave property should be protected
from' excessive taxation by the Constitution. As
long as such a protection exists our Legislature will
be frbe from sectional contests, and our State con
tinue to advance in w-altn and political strength.
Peace at home is far more necessary to the poor
man than the rich one ; the latter can remove farth
er South, but the former rises or falis with the State.
The Register thinks that if "our warning breathes
the spirit of true prophecy, it is time tc calculate
the value of slavery among us." If the people lis
ten to the appeals of Messrs. Bledsoe, Wilson & Co.,
and' follow tne teachings of the Register and its par
ty, we think the time is approaching when the re
moval of slave property will throw the whole bur
den of taxation on the land. Then, with a reduced
agricultural, population and reduced exports, it will
be proved,' that the bitterest enemies to the working
men of the State, were the brawling office-hunting
demagogues, who first scattered the seeds of dissen-"
siou between the slaveholder and non-sUiyeholdcr in
North Carolina.
There are other portions of our friend's well
digested lucubratipns,.tliafc we will notice at. another
time. .
Slack Rope Performance by a Rat.. Rats ar.e
somewhat proverbial lor their natural instinct,
which often manifests itself in. expedients resorted
to by them for self-preservation. We were witness
of an instance of this a dajr or two since. Dick,
our family cat, had caught a rat, and in its strug

Out upon tWs the fugitive walded, a la lilondon and
De Biave, till he hard reached, what he doubtless
considered a safe distance from his pursuer, where
he paused to await the issue, watching, with disten
ded orbs, his enemy the cat. " Tne latter, maatiwhile
lost no time in pursuing his prey, and having reach
ed the top of the post, attempted to imitate his rat
ship in his slack-rope performances- But finding
this impossible, he descended to the ground, and
after pausing for a moment watching his prey he
apparently became bewildered at tne strange turn
m itters had taken, and returned to watch the hole
from whence tne rat hid emerged. Tais was the
rat's opportunity, and seizing upon it he descended
to the ground and made go. id his escape.

June 20th, says :
On 3-esterdJiy three large negro men passed Low

were ordered to return, which, they readily did ; two

They had not proceeded far on their return, before J

This is a trame that somehow has got "to be con-,

amine, it is enougn to Know tnai n so, ana mat-
cases proving the fact are occurring every day.
xmr take our good country of New Hanover, for
instance. Communications appear in campaign pa
pers of the Opposition party, claiming a probable
success for one or the other of the Opposition can
didates for the Legislature. These communications
appear in the Kingston 'Advocate or the Greensloro
Little Ad." Of course the object ot tlicse brag
ging communications is to dispirit the Democrats
and encourage the opposition. That Democrat or
oppositionist either, must be a weak vessel indeed?
who will permit himself to be so deceived. -New
Hanover is all right, arud upright. She will elec
her democratic Senator and Commoners., and give an.
old-fashioned majority for Ellis. This no one" here
doubts for a moment.
Of eourse the opposition is putting forth unusual
ly strong etiorts. lhey arc straining every nerve.
md it behooves Democrats to follow their example
in that respect at least. We will not imitate them
in the bragging line. v e will say candidly to our
Democratic friends that if they would succeed, the
must lay aside all little personal piques, all divisions,.,
all heart-burnings, and come up like men for Gov.

Dreadfut Hail Storm. One of the most terrible
hnil storms that has ever been witnessed in thin sec
lion of the cour t- y passed over the Southern part of
Mecklenburg on the 10th inst. It extended through.'!
the neighborhoods of Steel Creek, Sharon. Pmvid-'
ence, &c, and we are not inf irmed how roach furth -er.
Two clouds arose, one in the east the other in
the southwest, rolling and curling in frightful shapt.
until they met. 11 little loth south of Charlotte; .the
j wind giving the Tain and hailstones a wilurimg
motion. We learn that many of the stones measur
ed eight inches iu circumference, and in some place
covered the ground to the depth of several inches.
The storm rande- a clean sweep of growing cjuxps
along its path, literally stripptng the cotton stalks
and beating into the earth corn, wheat, oats, syrup
cane, &c, and pealing the bark from fruit trees; in ,
fact; destroying, at one fell swoop, the hopes of tho
farmers for the ctif rent year. . It is especially dis .

echoes sound along the walls of time till they crum
ble at the breath of the Eternal. In all the world
there is not a habitable spot where the music of that
holiest word has not sounded. Ah,, by the golden
flow of the river, by the crystal margin of the rock,
under the leafy shade of the forest tree, in the hut
built of the bamboo cane, in the mud thatched cot.
tage, by the peaks of the kissing mountains, in the
wide spread valley, on the blue ocean, in the change-,
less desert where the angel came down to give the
parched lips the sweet waters of the wilderness ;
under the white tent of the Arab, and in the dark
covered wigwam of the Indian hunter ; where ever
the pulses of a human heart beat quick and warm,
or floats feebly along the current of failing life, there
is that sweet word spoken, like a universal prayer
