of an outbreak, which we most frankly confess begins to appear almost inevitable We are not at liberty to state more at pres ent, and we withhold much that has come to our knowledge for good and sufficient reasons.- From the iV7 T, Sun, of Tuesday. "Since the above was written, we have received intelligence that the Governor of Rhode Island I wis suddenly called the Gen eral Assembly together. They met on Monday and received a message from the Governor requesting an advisory commit tee, lie being unwilling to go farther in such j a crisis without advice and direction on the part of the Assembly. A committee w as appointed, and the House adjourned to Tuesday. No allusion was made to any moile of compromise, and there ure great fears of an outbreak. The volunteer com ftnies of the suffrage party paraded on Saturday night, well armed and drilled, and with a determination to resist any attempt to enforce the late law of the Assem Wy." ( From the N. Y. Journal of Commerce,) The news from Ruode Island is rather more beligerant. Gov. King hits called an extra session of the Legislature, which body oceordingly convened at Providence on Monday lal. The following is an ab stract of the proceedings of that day, as staled in a slip from the Providence Jour nal: Monday .Qpril. The House came to order at a quarter before 2 o'clock, the Speaker in the Chair. The roll was called, and 37 me:r.bers. just a quorum, answered to their names. A message was received from the govern or. Mr. Randolph moved that it be referred to a special committee (Carried.) The message o the Governor, after a brief review of the current evenis, since the adj urnment of the General Assembly, a few weeks since, and of the present state of affairs, sprrgests the propriety of making a requisition upon tho Prpsulent of the United States for aid, to put down the do mestic violence with which the State is threatened, and recommends the appoint ment of a Board of Counsel to advise and consult with the Executive, and the organ ization of such a military force a shall be deemed necessary in the present exigency. A genilemr.n who left Providence on Monday evening, informs us that the as pect of thirds was considered more discour aging than at any previous date. From the lluleigh Standard. MR. MOREUEAD'S REPORT. We publish this week the Report and accompanying bill, made to the Legislature by James T. Morehead, recommending that th two Boards of Internal Improve ment and Literature, should be mined, and fiat all the money due the Slate by the purchasers of the Cherokee Lands should be collided and deposited in Bank; and Vie only reason assigned lor this cruel pol icy at such a lime of hard pre.-surc as the last enr, was, that it is incompatible with the Governor's dignify to attend to such small matters as renewing the Bonds given for them. The public will, we trust, consider the subject coolly and dispassionately. The brother of the Governor, a "whig," recom mends that all money due by the people to these Boards, should be collected these hard times, and put into the Banks, and only because it would be incompatible with the dignity of the Executive Officer to de- yote a little lime to renew the lionds of the poor log-cabin men who elected him. It is certainly the most oppressive and ab surd policy ever invented. The State did not want the money the Banks had enough without it and its collection would be ruinous to the people, as the whole a tnounted to about half a million of dollars. But even if the State , wanted it, and the Banks, (who were not entitled to it) bad desired it, pray tell us if the claims of an honest and industrious, hard-working peo ple, borne down by the pressure of the times, are to be lightly set aside ? Should not such a claim, (that of the Stale) high as it is, be asserted with caution, where the welfare, nay, the very life-bread of 'log cabin men" was in jeopardy t But there was no need, no claim entitled to en tertainment, but the onerous and oppressive proposition was made tinder the simplk plea, that the act by which the people would be saved from ruin, compromittei! the dignify of the Governor, because he was ' Captain General tmd Commander in Chief of the Militia .'" Whew! Can non ! Guns ! Drums ! and Fiddlesticks ! Did any one ever hear such a reason for refraining from the performance of an aci of charity, mercy or justice! It is a "whig" argument, out and out worthy of the hard cider campaign and all the humbugs of Will any one pay that this is a mere electioneering effort to injure Governor Morehead? As well might it be said the press should be silent on every subject that concerns the public interest or the rights of the people, lest the conduct of public men 'hould be brought into disrepute. We do not understand this way of worshipping men at the expense of justice and truth. Here are the facts. Broad, palpable, un deniable. WThy do not the whigs' admit, at once, that the Governor and Jus brother have committed an error, and ask the peo ple to have a "generous confidence" that they will never do so again !" Will they coinprotfit their integrity as men and their honor as politicians, by denying a truth that can be read and understood by every log-cabin man in the country? . - We copy from the official Record we stale the simple facts, and draw no other conclusions but those drawn by the whig- gery themselves aud what is to be the result? Will the people permit themselves to be deceived ? No, they must see what is the amount of whig love for log-cabin men, and find that Me have told the truth when we have over and over said to them, that "wh:g" love for the people was all an imposition and deception. RE POUT Of the Joint Select Committee on the sub ject of uniting the Literary aud Internal Improvement Boards. The Joint Select Committee, to whom was referred so much of the. ..Governor's message as relates to the expediency of uniting the lioaru ot Internal Improvement and the Literary Board, have had the same under consideration, and submit the fallow ing report: In order to cone to a satisfactory, con clusion on the subject, it is deemed neces sary to inquire lino the organi7.at on of the two boards, the properly and effects here tofore granted to each, how the same have been managed, and thtir present condi tion. In the year 1825, the legislature created ihe board know n aud styled "The President and Directors oi the Literary Fund." Tne 'am" "l iraiivrred in that board, among oilier .lungs, the dividends arising from the. slocks owned by the State in the Cape Fear Navigation Cooi(uiy, alo m ic stocks owned in the Ri.anoke Navigation, Company, together with the taxes imposed on licence to retail spintous liquors and auctioneers, aud the monies arising from ihe entries of vacant land. Other s locks were traiisfened; but as some of them are included in the funds hereinafter set forth, and others becoming worthless, a further notice of them is deemed unnecessary. By the act of the Legislature, passed at the session ol ltJ3G-'37, the Literary Board was remodelled, and the board known and designated by the name and style of " The Pre-ideni and Directors of ihe Literary Fund ot North Carolina, was then created. liy tne same act, the funds invested by the act of 1825, in the Literary Board, were transferred to ihe newly created board; and, in addition thereto, the L r:d to lite said board, the following proper ly, slocks and elTrcts; to wit: all the swamp lauds, wuic.li had not been previously gran .ed; o:is million of the capital siock in the bank of the State and the bank of Cape Fear, also $600,000, to be invested in the Capital siock of ihe VV iluiington and RI''' lml RouU Company. At the tttne e9ion. the Legislature set apart the sum of S'iOO.OGO lo be exjwmietl in draining of the swamp finds, and the Literary Board 13 directed to put to interest upon shori credits, such part of thai sum as should not be wonted for numed a e use in draining the lands and the interest aris ing therefrom, also to fall into the Literary Fund; also to re-invest the protiis arising from its funds to the greatest advantage. In obedience to the legislative mandate. lie Literary Doara purchased stock in the Bank of Cape Fear, to the amount of 32,200; and invested in the bonds of ttie Kaleign aud Gaston Kail Road, the sum ol $1-10,000; and in the bonds of the Wil mington and Raleigh Rail Road, ths sum ol $85,000; and loaned to other corporations and to individuals, the sum of S155.U53 75. 1'he lawer sum is secured by about sixty bonds from individuals and corporations. The committee believe, that the situation of the funds of Ihis boartl will be belie r un derstood, by a recapitulation of us means. Funds of the Literary Hoard.

The expenses of the board for ihe same .?nod have been $3,790 55. The Board of Internal Improv-rnem wa established by an act of the Legislature, pa?sed in 1819, and by that act, ihe funds arising from the sales of the lands, acquired from the Cherokee Indians, together with the dividends of the stock-, owned by the State in the Bank of Cape Fear, were in vested m said board. . By the act of 1836-37, the stock owned by the Stale in ihe Bank of Cape Fear, was transferred to the Literary Board; and the surplus revenue, received from the Treasurv of the United Slates, whs trans ferred to the Boird of Internal Improve ment, deducting from the sum received, if le sum of $300,000, lo be applied to the re demption of ihe public debt of the Stale; the Siim of $300,000, to he invested in the. Stork in ihe Bank of Cape tear; the sum of $200,000, appropriated io the draining of the Swamp lands, and the sum of!pi00, 000, appropriated to meet the expenses anil appropriations made at the am ses sion The last recited act, directs the Board of j Internal Improvement to loan their. .funds. "until required, 'upon good security ei "ther to individuals or corporations, taking "bonds therefore, payable semi-annually ; "bu; capable of renewal, should the Injnds "not direct otherwise, aud bearing intere. t "from the date." In obedience to ihe direction of die Le gislature, tne board have so conducted their funds as to present the following siaie men:; Bonds for the sale of Chero kee lands, (supposed) Do. sales made in 2.83G, Do. sales made in 1838, Bonds on individuals and corporations, $5,000 00 20,003 70 268.679 41 30,761 52 Aggregate amount, $325,049 75 The expenses of the board from 1837, to November, 1840, were ?2,156 56. The amount received for the sale of Cherokee land, is evidenced by about 4.000 bonds, half of which is now due; one founh due in 1811; the remaining fourth will fill due in 1842. The amount loaned out by the board to individuals and corporations, is secured Ly ten bonds. It is due to the members of both boards, to slate, that every facilny has b?en given to ihe committee, in examining into that winch they conceived to be iheir duty; and n is due lo the legislature, to Slate, that the statement of tne funds, of each, has been made from reports, submitted to the present Legislature, which the committee believe to be correct. The Literary board consists of the Gov crnor and three other members; and the board of 1 menial Improvement consists of the G overnor and two other members, each of whom are entitled to three dollars per day lor attendance and to travelling expen ses. From the statements before made, it has already been shewn, lhai the two boards are directed to pui their money to interest upon short credits, and upon semi-annual credits, and that there are, exclu ive uf the bonds given for the sale of the Cneiokee lands, upwards of seventy bonds due the two boards; that the existing law requires a majority of each hoard to transact bus! ness. The result is, that in some instances, the expense 10 renewing a loan is " greater than the interest received. The committee beg leave to take another vir f ihe suhiect, from the report made lt the present Legislature, it is probable, thai a large portion o! the swamp bind will be brought into market during the frcs ent year; if so, Uie labor and expense o the board, will e incr i"pon- to the aim-"" 118 '""o.-. a irK- p.-r oon of the lands acquired from the Chero kee I it J tans, remains Vet unsold; w hen these lauds are throun iiho market, there will be, necessarily, a larger increase in ex pendimre. From the views above siafd, it is more a mailer of surprise, lhai the expenses are not greater th n that thy are so great. , In ihe opinion of the commniee, the whole system is radically defective. Whai ever may have been the object, the Leis lature had in view, in din rung ihe monit-s of the two boards to bu put lo ititeres-, on short credits, the t fleet :s, t i convert the Executive branch of the government, into a loan nthce, ami lo assign to that ileoari men!, the performance of ministerial duties wholly incompatible with the digniiv am. constitutional functions of a co-ordiuaie branch of the government. The commiitee hope that they may be pardoned for a few observations upon this branch of the subject. It is one ihev touch with great feelings ofdelicacy, and mien nothing more than to elicit the aiieulioii o ihe Le2:sl;hrek The 4th section of the Declaration o Rights declares, "ihat the Legislative, Ex eeulive, and supreme Judicial powers of government ougm to oe lorever separate and distinct from eich o her. Bv wluc it is clear, that the Legndnture was to pas laws; the Judiciary to imerpiet and expoun them; and the Executive lo superintend ifieir execution; and, in order to enable the Executive lo fulfil this high duly, the I8ih section ol the C 'oosiiMiiion declares, that the Governor shall be Captain Gmeral aud Commander-m-chief of the Militia Ilis submitted, under ihis view, whether it was intended that the Executive should perform ministerial duties? If so, who io superintend him, and compel him to perform his duty? J he Legislature can not, because he can only be impeached for violating any part of the Constitution, mal adiiiiius'ration or corruption. It wmild liicn seem, that ihe strange anomaly is pre sented of a .-nmisierial oilicer who cannot be reached by law, for an omission of duty Again : under the existing law, the Gover nor appoints, under and wit;i the advice o his Council, the members of the two Boards 4mong oiher powers conferred bv the 19;h section of the Constitution, is the powtr to pardon and reprieve, t1 mm the very asso ciation ot the boards, their acts aie loini Suppose violation, tnal-adminisiraiioii ir eorrupiioti by the members. they have ihe patooiiing power among them, by whicl ihey may escape punishment, and set the law at defiance. But in deference to the opinions of for-1 nier Legislatures, the committee forbear a further train of reasoning, as to the funda mental question; but they have no hesita tion in coming i the conclusion, that the tvo boards should bp united. - From the eminiion of thesurjept, the cnnwoiitee are further of opinion, u. -d;vidends. declared in favor of the two hoards, and ihe monies received by them, should cease to be kept bv th boards, for the purpose of loaning.

All of w hich is respectfully submitted. JAMES T. MOREHEAD, Chairman. January 2, 1841.

If we Tecollect aright, lie and his party were very loud in 1840 in favor of the 'one term principle. Il he was sincere then. he ought now to show ii, by voluntarily declining a re-eleclion. Bui, perhaps, ihe Governor thinks, that it is like many oth er principles, very good except when ap plied to himself.

But we. suppose it is with the Register, as it is with the other Federal sheets in this Siaic; "any thing for political capital no matter whether true or untrue." REPAIRS OF THE GOVERNOR'S HOUSE. It will be recollected, that notwithstand ing all ihe denunciations of the Whig ora tors generally, and John M. Morehead in particularin 1840, against the extravagance & royal splendor of the President's House in Washington. notw iilistandmjj all" their prof 's-inns of love for economy and "log. cabin simplicity," the W hig Legislature ot North Carolina in the fall of that year. made an appropriation of $3,000, for re pairs ol the Governor palace fcc. It IS now alleged, that the Governor has expen ded only a small pari of this sum; and much credit is claimed for him by his friends. for not laying out the whole. Let us tx- . amine this claim: The appropriation was necessary or it was not necessay; if it tea necessary, and ihe Governor has not ap plied it he has failed to do his duty, merely that lie might make a boxisl of saving; if it was not necessary, then the Ifhig Ivgi' lature is guilty of the most reckhss cx- liavatrance in thus appropriating the peo ple's money to objects for which it was not wanted. So that in order to acquit the Governor, Ins friends are driven to the ne cessity ofconuictig'ihe Whig Lcgislaiure! What say ye to this, ye Whijf members from Rutherford, Buncombe, Burke, &c,? Are ye really guilty, as charged in the in dictmenf! or, has the Governor Tailed todi 7n'a duty! One of these things, must be irue. Perhaps, however, the Governor in lends lo apply the money after the 7ec lion. Who knows t VIRGINIA ELECTION. Victory ! Victory ! Victory ! "Old Virginia never tire."
