It is said that $300,000 of it has taken unto itself wings and Down away, but whether it weut with the Presi dent and Cashier, or antedated their ilight, is not known here as yet.

Gov. Stedman: Charles M. Stedman is a self-made in an. He was born of a poor and humble parentage. He has climbed the ladder of fame and fortune by his own effort, commencing on the lowest rung, lie isthe architect of his o n fortune. He owes nothing to mere birth save an unsullied name and the inherited qualities of head and heart, which have won him so enviable a place among his Ceople. Born of the people and red among them, he is in full sym pathy with them. The poorest and the humblest may feel at home with in the radiance of his genial and kindly nature. Stedman is a gen erous, liberal, free hearted nature. Charity is one of his crowning vir tues. He helps the poof; oft feeds the huugry; clothes the ragged; Ye Ancient Pirates.

This fs a mistake. TeacU's record of infamy was not made on the South Carolina coast but on that of this State, although he probably operated all along the Atlantic seaboard and also in the West Indies and on.the Spanish Main. The narrative of his piratical deeds and exploits is in complete, but yet such as it is, it is a matter pertaining mainly to the history of North Carolina. All of those who have written partial or complete histories of the State refer to the exploits of this desperado. He was a reality, and not a myth. and it is probable that the old fairy tale of Blue Beard had its origin in the Black Beard of the North Caro lina coast, as it is known that Teach had thirteen wives, he having mar ried his last in North Carolina. The best and most complete ac count of the piratical exploits of Ed ward Teach, or Thac.he, as it is writ ten in the earlier records of the province, is found in Hawks' History of North Carolina. He was born in Bristol, England, and his first ap pearance on the scene was about the vear 1700. He served first in a privateer fitted out in Jamaica, during the war of the English with France and SpaJnf where he distinguished himself by his daring courage. In 1806 he turn ed pirate in connection with one Hornsgold, and cruised between the island of New Providence and the continent. Having captured a sloop Hornsgold gave him command of the prize and soon after he fell in with a large French Guineaman, bound for Martinique, which he captured. He armed her. with 40 guns and transferred to her his Hag, giving to her the name of Queen' Anne's t He- aw i J ft . ' HI vengc. ur. iiawKs iurnisnes us wun the following account of Teach's ex ploits and of the close of his sangui nary career: II is flair was hoisted on board of a ship of 40 guns, a vessel which, with her armament and stores, ne could carrv into no harbor on the coast but that of Beaufort, and he had a crew of 100 men. His squadron con sisted of six vessels, and Vane, Bon net and Worley wre his chief cap tains. In the month of May, 1718, Teach, cruising off the bar of Char leston, captured a ship Having on board as a passenger Samuel wragg, ono of the council of boutn Uarolina, He robbed this centleman of $G,000 in specie and then impudently sent four of his men into Uliarieston witn a message to Gov. Johnson, demand ing a chest of medicine, and accom nanied with the assurance that liould it not be sent, lie wouia De- head Mr. Wragg and all of the other passengers. To save ineir lives me chest was sent. fler amassing a large amount of plunder, he returned to JNortn uar olina, determined . to desperse his followers and live on tne rruits or his villainy. His first step was togo to the house o: Governor Eden, with twenty of his men, and take advant age of the King's proclamation of pardon. This he did and obtained the Governor's certificate. . A court of admiralty soon after sat at Bdth', when Teach, who neverheld a'com mission nor took a lawful prize, with consummate impudence procured he condemnation of a sloop which le or some of his followers had pi ratically taken at sea and sent in. He now sat down on the land to not n his ill-gotten wealth, and for the thirteenth time . married a wife a young' woman wno proDapiy was not very inquisitive as to how many of her predecessors were living. lestless and roving in disposition, lowever, he could not long remain on shore, and when tired of dissipa tion on land, he resolved to diversify us pleasures by a little oiore rob bery and murder at sea. He accordingly went on a cruise and soon returned with his plunder n the shape of a Krench ship, laden with a valuable cargo of sugar and ma 1 m m - JM cocoa, ine lie wnicn ne toia, anu to which four of his men swore, was so gross that it seems scarcely credi ble it could have been listened to ; for a moment. He stated that he Mr. DuBrutz Cutlar, Jr., made his honesty This -roused the resent-j maiden Peeoh as an attorney last ment of the people, and they fur- i night in defence of Biggs, the burg nlsned unequivocal evidenceof their lar. He was highly complimented opinion as to his true character, and ; oi iiia story oi unuing ine u rencn ship, by applying to Spotswobd, then Governor of Virginia, to re quest the British naval officer in command on his station to send a force .into the waters of Carolina and take the pirate. It is intiina tea mat tney adopted tnis course because Eden, their own Governor, was not, in their view, sufficiently prompt in affording them redress. Captain Ellis. Brand was the na val officer commanding in the wa ters of v irginia; and he, acting T in concert with Governor opotswood, fitted out t wo -.sloops, and placing them under .Lieutenant Kobert May nard. ordered him in pursuit Lof Teach. Spqts wood at the same time offered, by proclamation, a reward of one hundred pounds for the ap prehension of Teach, fifteen pounds each for any of his officers, and ten pounds per man for his crew.; May nard sailed irom James Kiver ; in November, 1718, and four days af ter crossed Ocracoke bay and steer ed for Pamlico River. It had been the effort to keep Mayriard's expedi tion a secret, and take the pirate by surprise; but Teach haddiscover ed it, and was prepared to defend himself, with his crew of twenty-five desperadoes, as Maynard came within gun shot, he received Teach's fire, so that the engagement com menced on his side. Maynard then stood directly for his vessel, but un fortunately grounded, near eno Jgh for Teach to hail him, and vith hor rid imprecations, to let him know that he would neither give nor take quarter. The fight thus become one of predetermined extermination, and was desperate on both sides By one broadside Maynard lost twenty men, ivrhen he promptly re solved that the contest should 4 be finished, - hand- to hand, at close quarters'. To effect this, he resorted to the strategem of sending his men 1 1 'il I: A. X? A 1 oeiow, wiiu instructions io oe reauy to appear on the nrst signal,, pre pared for- close quarters. As he anticipated, Teach, pereeiving hls deck clear, ordered his crew to board. The moment they touched his deck, Maynard called his men, and then the slaughter commenced. The two. commanders made for each other, and discharged their pistols- without effect; they then drew their dirks, and alike between officers and men on both sides, the blows of death were dealt with fear ful rapidity on a deck 'soon jnade slippery with blood. At last Teach fell, exhausted with thfe wounds he had received; of the seventeen pirates who had boarded the King's yessei. Teach with nine others were killed outright, and the other eight were so wounded that they begged for and received mercy. Maynard then immediately attacked Teach's vessel containing the residue of the pirates who ha'd remained on board of her. The officer in command had ordered a desperate negro, who with a firefbrand stood ready, to ap ply it to the magazine and blow. the vessel, up- ;the moment she was boarded. 9 One broadside was . all that she . discharged, in returning which, the commanderof the pirates . i t would appear io nave , Deen jsnieu, and the crew yielded; though it was with, difficulty the negro was pre vented from blowing up the vessel, eveh.after he knew that he who had orderedlt was dead. , ?; . Teach was now beyond .the reach of human punishment: he had gone to a more fearful tribunal than that of man. Maynard caused his head to . be severed from 'his body, ! and hanging it at the end of his bow sprit, sailed up to the town of Bath, where he landed his men and - re mained some little time for their refreshment and recovery. He then proceeded to his station in Virginia, taking with him his pirate prison ers, and'still carrying, in advance as before, the head of their brave but villainous leader hanging at . his bowsprit. A court of admiralty there soon disposed of them, and thirteen of them followed their chief to the judgment seat of eternity Feagtof the PassoYer. The Jewish Feast of the Passoyr, one of the most solemn of all the ob servances in the Jewish calendar. began yesterday evening at sunset, and will contiuue for. seven days, the first and last of which are always kept in strict accordance with the Mosaic ordinance. The Passover commemorates the miraculous de parture of the Israelites from Egypt. It is always observed on the ?14th day of the Hebrew month Nissan. on his effort by the older members of the bar. - " , - i On account, of the bad , weather M rs.
