Tiie scarcity of material for sale in the State, and the uncertainty of procuring supplies from abroad, force us to rely on our domestic resources It is thought that every family can spare one or more Blankets' without personal inconvenience, or a pair of NN oolen Socks, and it is believed th-.it for such a pur pose a call would fee responded to with alacrity. It has therefore been concluded that an appeal for this purpose be made to the great body of the people, and with that view I have to request the Sheriffs of the several Counties to act as agents of the State, to solicit a contribution of this kind. To this end they are requested to circulate this no tice, and employ agents in every distriet of their county, to further the matter. All contributions of this kind may be boxed and for warded to the nearest Railrrtad-Depot, and due inforiua- tion thereof sent to the Governor. The Sheriffs are further requested to furnieh to the Governor a list of the donors. The transportation of these donations will be at the expense of the State—and the bill for such service should be duly forwarded for payment. HENRY T. CLARK, Governor of N. C. Ln cheerful compliance with the several requests con tained in the above Circular of His Excellency Governor Clark, the undersigned. Sheriff of Cumberland, has made provision within the several Districts of the Coun ty for the reception of contributions for the provision and comfort of our gallant soldiers. As it is our pride to know that the good old county of Cumberland has sent forth her best and bravest sons to the baitle-field, so will it be to us gratifying to feel that we have ministered to their necessities and cheer fully contributed' to their wants It i therefore un necessary to make any appeal to the charities of a peo A. ]^ew Law Book.

THE ERUPTION OF VESUVIUS, j Naples, Dec. 10..*-sFrom Naples little is seen I excepting tltose grand columns of smoke which, rise gigantically into £H« air, and wViich, accord- 1 ing to as clo.se a measurement as could be made, j were calculated—that from the* lower mouths at ; 10,000 feet, and that from, the upper crater at . 3,000 feet in height. Our streets are tree from ■ the dust of the mountain, and though for some time after the sun rose it appeared to be in a state i of eclipse, yet to witness all the wonders of the 1 spectacle it is necessary to^leave the capital and visit the site of the disaster. From the confines of the city to Torre del Greco one passes between two lines of a curious popula tion who have turned out to see the crowds who flock Sown to Torre del Greco The wind blows ! off the mountain due North and South, so that, ' until you get just under the column, you are not exposed to the shower of dust which falls thickly and constantly, almost blinding one and certainly not conducing to easy respiration. Ou arriving . at the devoted little town, which numbers, by-the- ! by, 22,000 souls, I found the place, except at the , station, almost deserted. Every house was aban- I doned, and, as proving how rapid was^the flight, : melons and other articles still hung suspended ; outside the windows. At.the station there was a vast crowd of persons, some of the last lingering j inhabitants, with Jbeds and other articles of furni- ■ ture, anxious to be, off. i The first thing which strikes the eye is the ' blackened appearance tsf every object, the fine dust, which had fallen in heavy shtJwers, lying four and a ' half inches in depth in the streets and on the ■ tops of the houses. Some of these were cracked lohorizontally across the flat roofs, and others per- : pendicularly, but it is not until you turn ofl^ to the : left, 51 little beyond the station, that the full point, i as'cending the mountain, a number of houses are I pas^sed which have been “most materially injured, : from 400 to 500 in all, and rendered to a certain j extent unsafe. At one house in particular, a handsome building too, the proprietor, who kad I returned for some articles w^hich he had left be- I hind, was breaking the windows to get in, en trance by the doorway being impossible. ! On the 8th instant, at about a quarter past 11, i A. M., a great trembling of the ground was felt j at Torre 'del Greco, which continued at intervals • of from live to ten minutes. The po'pulation were : in great alarm,^ expecting an earthquake. At I Re.''i this treniuIou«> motion was felt, though not ■ >iO stronL'Iy, about mid-day. Towards 3 o’clock in the afternoon a large opening was mad"e in the •ground above Torre del Greco, and a half a mile •lower than the crater of 1774, and the first cone was formed underneath the house of Francesco Cruel. This house was thrown into the air, as were four others, in a Meseria close by. The lava has arrived, on the morning of the 9th, at about a ((uarter of an hour’s walk above the Mon astery of the Cappucini, which has been destroy ed; and is a half a mile.in breadth. All the houses in Torre have fissures in them, and the populution have fled to Naples. At the time that I-lortdu—Messrs Jaiiie?

Every effort of this kind is accoinpanicd by a sound as of thunder.

The principal of tltese cotres is an ellipse, and both at first sent out a lody of lava, which threatened Torre del Greco with rapid'destruction. The opening of the main crater, at '2 A. M., of.'Monday diminished the violence of the lower stream, and, possibly, saved the town.
