XoWN ASP CouNTV Bonds for Sale.—The
rt'ftder who has money to loan, will notice the ad-
^ ^.^rti^^emeut of the President of tbe Western Rail
I offering to the highett bidder, >10,000 each
of the b'lnds of the Town of Fayetteville and tbe
. county of Cumberland.
This is a fit occasion to state a fact of noueh
giicnificancp in regard to this Road. A meeting
of a few of its friends was held last week, at which
and sub!»equen(.ly a written pledge was signed by
fifteen or twenty gentlemen, among our most sub-
vnntittl ciciaens, to endoruo the notes of^tbe Com-
puuy for various sums, amounting in the aggregate
t,i nearly §100,000, the notes so ondor«ed to be
collaterally secured by a hypothecation of tbe
T'lWti and County Bonds at the rate of 5100 in
bonds for ^75 of endorsement.
Xbis mode of raising maney on the bonds, in
anticipation of their sale, was adopted because it
is a rule of the banks here to require individual
security on notes discounted.
Should individuals prefer to loan money on the
combined security of these bonds and of indi
viduals, rather than to purobaso the bonds, they
can be acootnmodated.
Either way, the movement secures to the road
the means to carry on its work, as heretofore,
with vigor, and promptly to meet it« monthly
payments to contractors. It was haodsomely
doue, and has greatly raised the spirits of the
President and Directors, and indeed of the com
munity, for it furnishes a new evidence that the
citizens of Fayetteville te/ff not allow this great
enterprise to fail.
We learn that the several Contractors are prose
cuting their work with vigor.
Fire.—The kitchen of Mr. Robert Johnson,
on Hay Mount, was destroyed by fire on Saturday
afternoon last. The white family being absent,
the cook left tbe lot, for some purpose, leaving
her two children, 4 years of age and under, in
the kitchen. It is supposed that these thought-
lf?sly set fire to tbe building. Tbe children were
saved by tbe neighbors.
The kitchen was insured for 8200.
Wir.MINGTON AND W’’ELDON RaIL RoAD.—The
Wilmington Herald gives the substance of the
Reports of the Auditing Committee and the Su
perintendent to the late Stockholders’ meeting,
from which we learn that the amount received
from through travel for 12 months was
8177,549 71
From way travel, 103,365 05
From freight, 157,451 22
Mail, rents, &c., 52,853 02
Cost of running, 182,838 75
Road repairs, officers’ pay,
&c, 112,493 15
Interest and exchange, 57,894 57
491,219 00
353,220 47
Fatal Accidents —On Thursday last, Richard
Bolin was killed near this town by the accidental
discharge of his gun, in his own hands. He was
raising bis gun to shoot a squirrel, when it ex
ploded and lodged the entire load in his head.
On the same day, near Franklinton, Paul Spar
row, a youth of 14, was killed in a aimilar man
ner whilst gunning
And a few days ago, at Washington, N. C., a
negro man belonging to Allen Grist, Esq., was
killed by tbe discharge of a gun in his own hands.
The Superior Court for Cumberland County is
in !«es8ion this week, Judge Bailey presiding.
From what source does the Wilmington Her
ald get its Fayetteville marKet news?
Fay. Obtereer.
From the Fayetteville papers. Regularly twice
a week (Tuesday and Friday) from the Ohterver.
Wilmington Herald.
So we supposed, and so the community sup
posed. And be3aQse the public interested in
markets would so suppose we desired to have the
Observer’s quotation* correc'dy copied, as they
certainly were not in last Tuesday’s Herald. Wo
are glad to see that the Herald has corrected its
figures in its market report, though one would
suppose from tbe Herald’s remark in its editorial
column, as quoted above, either that no errors
had occurred, or, having occurred, that they were
errors of the Observer, Of coarse the Herald did
not de.-^ire to make such an impression, though it
is the only natural reading of its remark.
When we called the Herald’s attention to the
errors we really thought we were doing it a kind
ness, for such mistakes were not unfrequently
noted among our merchants to its disadvantage.
We will add, that we had not the most remote
idea that the article on “Affairs in Baltimore,”
(the authorship of which we disclaimed,) was from
the Herald. We will not dispute about a matter
of taste. The article did not suit oar taste, aud
when erroneously credited with it, we said so.
The Stats Fair.—The Asheville Spectator
argues at great length that tbe State Fair ought
to be held at Salisbury instead of Raleigh, or, if
that change cannot be effiected, then that there
ought to be “a Western agricultural Fair and
Stock Exhibition.” We agree with the latter
proposition—let the West have as many such
Fairs as she will. But the State Fair should
continue to be held in Raleigh, for many reasons.
It is tbe seat of government, more accessible than
Huy other place in the State, with more hotel ac
commodations than any other, and its citisens
have spent some thousands of dollars in grounds
and buildings to accommodate it.
Randolph County Fair.—At the Randolph
Fair last week a premium of S5 was awarded to
Elias Macou for the largest yield of wheat, 25 i
buBbe\s to the acre. 82 to Nathaniel Steed for
largest yield of Irish potatoes, 20 bushels to ^
acre. 82 to Silas Keerns for largest yield of
wheat on less than an acre, 10 bushels on 58 rods.
Jos. Newlin, l*sq., of New Market, Randolph,
made a statement of bis experiments with Chinese
Sugar Cane. He thinks its cultivation will pay
in that county better perhaps than any thing else
He estimates that 15,000 Stalks can be produced
on an acre of good land, yielding 1,500 gallons of
juice; this, if taken in its proper state, will make
I gallon of syrup to 5 of juice, or 300 gallons of
syrup to the acre. 40 bushels of seed, he also
estimates to the acre, worth as much as the same
quantity of oats.
The News from Kuropo is rather good, inas
much as the worst had been heard from the U.
States, without pnxlucing any material evil, with
out a panic or a suspension of the Bank of Eng
land. which many feared. The capture of Delhi
is an important event.
On the other haod^ cotton and cvtry thing tlse
had fallen.
Net profits, 8137,993 13
The net profit is 86,110 24 less than for 1856,
caused by large outlay in filling trestle work, pur
chase of iron, &C.
For two years past, 7 per cent, dividends have
been paid,(amounting to 8187,630 on §1,340,213
21 of capital paid iu,) tbe interest on the debt
regularly paid, and 881,541 36 laid up as a sink
ing fund.
The first bonds issued by the Company, and
sold in England, 8222,666 67, will be duo in
November next. The sinking fund is expected
to be about 8130,000, leaving 8100,000 then to
be provided.
The total debt is $1,046,498 65.
Total cost of construction, reconstruction, and
real estate, 82,776,403 89.
All repairs of locomotives, coaches, &c., are
done in the company’s shops, where new locomo
tives and passenger cars are occasionally built,
and al! tbe freight cars. Tbe two latter nre as
cheap as those purchased at the North, and jiucb
more durable.
37,648 through passengers, and 64,425 way
passengers, have travelled over the road during
the year—an average of about 280 a day. The
through travel produced 815,000 more than for
1856.
This is evidently one of the most prosperous
roads in the country.
Thb Dismal Swamp.—W’e learn from the
Petersburg Express, that the following quantities '
of corn and fish papsed down the Dismal Swamp ■
Canal from North Carolina to Norfolk, for tbe
last three fiscal years of that company, ending on
the 30th of September:— #
1855. 1856. 1857
Corn, bushels, 1,165,146 1,300.206 745,564
Fish, bbls. 30,040 16,456 14,761
The quantity of shingles, sta res, lumber, &c., ’
is not stated. i
Newspaper Change—The Asheborougb Bui- j
letin has been discontinued. Mr. Drake the |
Editor will remove his materials to Statesville, j
where he will issue the Iredell Express. |
The Asheborougb Bulletin says 'that millions
of wild pigeons made their appearance in Ran
dolph last week. They are devouring the acorns
which are abundant this year, and will deprive
the hogs of much of their winter sustenance.
Spuriocs Wines.—The evil of adulterated
wines and liquors seems to be attracting the seri
ous attention of the judiciary in New York, and
it is to bo hoped that they will have both the will
and the ability to punish the manufacturers of
such poisonous stuffs. In the Supreme Court, a
few days ago, in the case of John Kelly vs. B. M.
Barnett and others, the defendants refused to pay
a note on the ground that there was no considera
tion, it having been given for various wines sold
as “Port,” “Pale Sherry,” “Burgundy,” &c.,
which the defendants alleged were noxious com
pounds made in this country; that they were “not
wines at all,” but mixtures of tbe most noxious
and deleterious character, concocted in the city of
New York by the plaintiff, “with intent to de
ceive and defraud, and said mixtures contained no
particle whatever of the juice of the grape in their
composition.” The defendants, therefore, not
only refused to pay the note, but insist that they
have a counter claim against the plaintiff for
damages sustained from bis worthless and unmer
chantable mixtures, and in consequence of his
fraudulent acts.
The olaintiff contended that this was a “frivo
lous” plea, and moved for a summary judgment.
But Judge Roosevelt denied the motion, with
costs, deciding that the defence, if true, is good.
“It is due to the public health," said he, “that a
full trial should be had. If it be true that manu
factures exist in this city for the getting up of
unwholesome and spurious mixtures, to be palmed
off upon the unsuspecting as “the pure juice of
the grape,” under the captivating names of “Bur
gundy,” “Madeira,” “Sherry,” “Port,” “Mus
cat,” the cou.''ts, instead of suppressing, should
assist in their investigation and exposure.”
Th* Public Plunder.—The Washington
“States,” a democratic paper, says that the print
ing of the 1st session of the last Congress cost the
government more than a million of dollars; and
that ten years ago the printing of both sessions of
Congress cost only 8275,000. So goes the peo
ple’s money—“the cohesive power,” as Mr. Cal
houn called it.
Plkntt of Moniy.—The State of New York
has just negotiated a loan of 8500,000 at a pre
mium of 86 26. Increased value is given to her
bands by the fact that they are deposited with
the State Comptroller as security for bank notes
issued.
Cure for Cancers.—The reader will find in
to-day's paper a long adverti.sement of Drs. Gil
bert and Kennedy of New York (one of whom is
now in Charleston,) proposing to treat oases of
that dreadful disease, Cancer. We refer to it
here to say, that we had occasion a few years ago
to visit their office in New York on business, and
that we theie saw many masses of Cancer, pre
served in spirits, which they had removed without
the use of the knife, from various parts of tbe
bodies of numerous patients. The impression
made by their gentlemanly and business manners
was inoSu favorable. So much we say pro hono
publico.
A cotton factory was burnt at Athens, Geo.,
and another at Jackson, Miss., a few days ago.
Loss 860,000, and 860,000 to 880,000, and no
inauranoe in eith«r oat*.
Nrw York Riots.—Tue.sday last wa.s a day of
very considerable excitement in New York. There |
were meetings of the unemployed in the Park and :
in the upper part of the city, with variou.s inflam-1
matory speeche.s, one by a woman. Th*‘ .Mayor
closed and fastened all the entrances to the City
Hall, and-had a large police force there, who had i
no occasion to exhibit themselves until an officer ,
was resisted in attempting to make an arrest; a i
row ensued, which momentarily increased, and
the whole police force poured out of the building
upon the crowd, who fled before them in dismay.
A few arrests were made, but no serious difficulty
occurred.
The presence of soldiers in the Sub-Treasury is
noticed elsewhere. It is understood that reliable
information was received that a mob intended to
rob the vaults, and would possibly have done so
but for the.se timely precautions.
An armed force was also stationed at the Ar
senal.
From the N. V. Express
FORCE DEMONSTRATION.
Rohbiny German Bakns of Bread when Carry
ing It on their Backs—Attack upon a German
Band of Music.
The crowd began to gather in Tompkins Square
between 8 and 9 o’clock W'ednesday morning.
By 10 o’clock the crowd had swelled up to 3,000
persons.
Among the crowd were about one hundred
Mackerelville B’hoys, and a delegation of Five
Point Dead Rabbit fellows, who had gone up to
the Square expecting to get up a row.
Many attempts were made, but at first in vain,
to get a speaker,—when at last Mr. Noll, a Ger
man, one of “the unemployed,” was seized and
put on the embankment to speak.
Mr. Noll said everything was going on as fast
as pos.sible to procure work for the men,—at which
the crowd became generally excited,—calling him
“a d— d liar,” ic., and great turbulence, cheer
ing, hooting, and howling.
Mr. Noll was very clear in saying that by Thurs
day he hoped the Committee would be able to tell
them how soon they could have work,—whereupon
some one struck him on the bead with a stick,
and began to push and haul him, which frighten
ed him oflF, aud be ran as fast as be could to a
German grocery store, kept by C. H. Holzbach,
corner of Sth street.
Some two or three men and boys ran after him,
hooting and yelling, but he succeeded in ensconc
ing himself in the grocery store of the German,
who, afraid that the mob were intending to search
his place, came out with a club, and his frau, a
fat, big woman, with a long cheese knife .\noth-
er German turned up in defence of the shop with
a butcher’s meat hatchet.
The crowd seeina this armed demonstration of
Germans. Herrs nnd Fraus, retreated a little way,
when they began to howl at “the Dutch woman,”
and soon after they made another rush at the store,
upsetting a bu of pails, tubs, apples and other
things around the grocery. Here a policeman
made his appearance, ^nd ordered them off, but
they refused to go. After several unsuccessful
attempts to coax them away, Mr. Charles Smith,
one of the orators of the day, more successful
than the policeman, got them to go back to the
Square, in peace.
While this was going on, another party at the
other end of Park, upset a German baker’s hand
cart, which had in it about 50 loaves of bread, of
which they robbed him every loaf, and then they
ran into the Square pelting every person they
could fire at with the loaves. The poor German
baker was utterly astonished at this “demonstra
tion,” and after pouring forth a torrent of German
consonants, in imprecations, he ran for his life.
Another German baker, named Isaac Stihart,
attempted to cross the southern end of tbe Park,
with a basket of bread on his back,—and a rush
was made for him. He was knocked off his leet;
and the basket tumbling over scattered all his
bread, which tbe mob seized, and went to pelting
him with.
A German, a very respectable man, with a white
hat, came into the Park and walked up in com
pany with another German as far as the fountain,
when his hat was knocked in, and the crowd went
to beating him. A loaf of bread was also fired at
him; and his friend’s hat was knocked off from
his head. Both of these Germans started and ran,
and took refuge in Holzbach’s grocery store.
Other Germans, who looked Germanic, or who
had curious bats, or coats, were also attacked by
the “Roughs,” who seemed to be Irish boys from
17 years to 20 years of age.
A German Band of Music—street musicians—
eight in number, were here seen coming up 10th
street. Park side, and immediate rush was made
for them. Two of them ran away, seeing the
mob, but the other six were seized, dragged into
the Square, up into the Fountain basin (now dry)
and there they were made to play, though half
frightened out of their wits. They struck up
“Hail Columbia,” then an “Irish Jig,” aU which
the cry was got up—“To the Park,” “To the
Park.”
They then tried to fall into a line with the Band
ahead, and had nearly succeeded in forming a pro
cession, when the Band, then left unguarded by
the crowd, started to run, to get away.
Then there was a desperate rush for them,—
but they all succeeded in running off, except one
short, fat German, whom they caught, and hauled
around and broke his instrument. Two gentle
men stepped in, and tried to save him from the
crowd. They got him up by 9th street, and told
him to run, which he did.
The affrighted musician leaped int) the base
ment of a private house, and succeeded in hiding
himself in the Hall. The mob surrounded the
hou.se, and bellowed: “Fetch out the Dutch devil,”
“Fetch out tbe Dutch devil,” &c. The occupants
of the house being afraid of having it torn down
or sacked, drove him out, aud no sooner had he
made his appearance, than he was again seized by
the crowd, and dragged up 9th street to 1st
avenue, up 1st avenue to 10th street, up 10th
street to 2d avenue, and down 2d avenue to Mayor
W^ood’s house. No. 122.
There they tried to make him blow hia broken
horn and “salute the Mayor,”—but there was no
musi3 in the broken horn, and the poor German
then began to cry.
A report wa.^ then raised “the Police,” “the
Police are coming,”—whereupon the German was
let go,—and tbe two gentlemen, his first and only
friends, again appeared, and took him down the
2d avenue for safety.
Scenes in the Fork.—Between 11 and 12 A.
M., people began to enter the Park, and soon
there was quite a large crowd. The people col
lected in groups and were talked to by politicians
and similar characters. The Irishmen spoke of
riots, which they considered very proper and
necessary, in case they should be left to starve.
Some considered, if affairs should become so des
perate as this, that the pillage of baker shops
would be the most practicable way to supply their
wants with despatch. The plusder of flour stores
was not favorably considered, as in former years
such demonstrations had done no good, and some
innocent people, who were accidentally caught in
the crowd, though they obtained nothing, had
been imprisoned for the riot. A bystander did
not consider it a very unfortunate thing for a
poor man, who had to starve, to be locked up iu
the Tombs, as there he would be fed at any rate
Another assured the crowd that the poor in this
country would never get up a successful revolu
tion, as this was not the right soil for such a de
monstration.
The slightest incident caused grent excitement
and sudden movements of the ero'sr.} during the
morning: even the arrival of a earri me w>)uld set
them all running. ,\t one time tbe entire tnul-
titudc pursued a man whn had pr.'viously made
certain surgestion.s, and counselled the pc'ople on
some points. He was driven from 'Hie side of
the Park to the other, with the crowd at his heels,
and finally succeeded in escaping by taking rofuge
iu the City Hall, where he was protected by the
police, of whom there was a strong force in the
Hall. Within the railing there was con'idcrible
bustling (luring iiil the forenoon, eountci Miarchi's
of the police, ere. The Naturalization was
lit.;ri.lly besieged and crowdi>d within by Iri'ili-
men and Gcmans, with their papers rridy in
their hands, awaiting to be transformetl into ci
tizens of the Utiited States.
At 1 o’clock everything was quiet and fhe
multitude gradually decreased.
PcfiLADELrniA, Nov. 12.
Employment Meetimj in Philadelphia. — About
5.000 unemployed per.sons met this !\^ternoon iu
Independence Square. The meeting passed off
iu an orderly manner, the sneakers advising law
and order.
A reporter of Forney’s “Press” was called upon
for a speech. He recommended the seeking of
work instead of idling the time at meetings,
taking it on any terms in preference to starving.
This speaker was groaneil and hissed, while
another, who declared that he would die rather
than work under the regular prices, received ap
plause.

REVIEW OF THE MARKET.
I’acon—Sales on Saturday at quotations.
Flour—Very uusettleJ
('otloii—Wo ailvance quotations, as for sales before
the Arabia’s news. We gave our views some three
weeks ago, that the present high price was owing to
the demand in Europe, aud that when th.-^it demand was
filled the price would go down. A large sale of cotton
gnols was made in New York on the 7th, which con
firms the cpinion then advanced. The sale was 2i88
bales, of various grades. W'e quote a few of the items;
400 bales ?>7 inch standard heavy Sheetings,
last quotation price obtained to 7.
400 30 inch Shirtings, C^, to 4&.
500 “ 2t; “ 4J, 2| to 2'|.
The above afford a fair view of the sale, and will
show another thing very plainly, that the American
manufacturers cannot go on auil buy cotton at present
prices and sell their gooiis sit present low figures.
