One of the most unfortunate signs of the times seems to be, in our judgment, the fact that South ern papers are attempting to bolstej up the pres ent Speaker of the House of Representatives. That Pennington is a Black Republican, in all es sential particulars as bad as Sherman, there can be no doubt, and still the pride and self-respect of Southern men are being wounded and insult ed by efforts by Southern papers to bolster up his antecedents and make him a very respectable old line whig. A State paper says : Notwithstanding some of our Democratic cotem p iraiies are endeavoring to create the impression tiiat Mr. Pennington is an Abolitionist and an ene:i-y to the South, yet Ave are quite sure that a fair find impartial survey of his past political life, willjustiiy nsueli conclusions. That he voted tor Mr. Sher man for Speaker, who is a sectional man, and who was the c.iudidate of a fectional party we frankly admit : but that he regarded Mr. Sherman in the light in which he U viewed by Southern men, we do n"t lor a moment believe. To believe tnis would be toay that Mr. Pennington's political views have sud den;y undergone a very great change, or that he is a very inconsistent politician. Mr. Pennington has all his life been a warm and zealous advocate of the principles of the Whig party. As long as that party maintained a distinct organization in New Jersey, he was found fighting under its banner. Since its dissolution, he ha a acted with the Opposition of his State for the purpose of defeating the Democratic party. Upon the subject ot slavery, he hells the same views that are held by the m .re "moderate and conservative men all over the North. lie i.s in favor of the execution of the Fugi tive Slave Law and opposed to its repeal, lie con tends that slavery is not wrong in itself, and i.s not opposed to its extension where it can be made avuii ab'.K or profitable. Now we consider the fact of his being the can cus nominee of the Abolition party for Speaker enough of itself to damn him in the eyes of all patriotic southern men. But not so, for here we have one defending him. But how can the se lection of inch men as Sherman and Hickman, tho most rampaut sectionalists in the House, to preside over the most important committees, be accounted for? Why did he not select for these posts men favorable to the enforcement of the fugitive slave law, as it is urged he is ? Ah, here we have it. A Virginia exchange (opposition) t d!. us : Tf ever a mnn deserved a linrsewhippinc", for any t' iag, ti.at man i- surely Mr. Hickman, for Hie ins. -U-iiL b iittil and cowanily outrage on S itther feel in r coata:ned in that sp -eeli oi his ii response to tin si' e tale on the night of the election of speake . Mr. IViii'igti.n certain y did no" use his own volition .v hi n he appointed this reckless and giacel ss party hark to the hish and re- pon-iblo position of C. air mail of the Judicial y Coimoi. tee. So. so. Did not exerc ise his own " volition." "Whose, then ? We can answer : He listened to and was governed by the counsels of the sixty o 11 traitors '.vh,j "cordially endorsed and approv e.l " Helper's treasonable publication. "Holds the same views that are held by the more nrode ra'e and eonservaitva men all over the North.'" Humbug. If to affiliate, associate and act with Seward, Sherman, Hickman, Helper &, Co. be to liken him to the " more moderate and conserva tive men all over the North," then indeed is he like them. Of all things keep dough-faced men from high places. We want men in power who will take decided positions, an 3 wc prefer an open, frank, bold enemy, any time, to a milk-and-water mon- ' strosity, who is neither friend nor enemy, of him self, but who is weak enough and knave enough to lend himself to the execution of the purposes of corrupt cliques. We are dicidedly of the opin ion that the election of Sherman would have been better for the country and better for the South, than that of Pennington, the present Speaker. Then we should have had an open en emy and should have known how to meet him, and might, at least, been spared the mortification of hearing him praised by a portion of the South ern press. The most alarming feature in our pre sent political condition is the want of firmness exhibited by southern men, and symptoms of a disposition on the part of some to submit quietly to all the indignities which Abolition fanaticism may heap upon us. SwAXSttORo'. We have received three letters by one mail from Swansboro, all treating upon one subject, and consequently the publication of one of them obviates the necessity for the publi cation of the other two. We suppose that " Sub scriber" in his letter which called these forth, meant no harm only desired to stir them up a little. We shall be pleased to hear from any of our friends in Onslow at any time, and will pub lish their communications whenever of public in terest. We thank our friends in that locality for their cordial invitations to visit them and assure them that we shall do so at the earliest opportu nity. Oar Reporter has made a few visits over there and is perfectly carried away by the people of Onslow and their rich lands. They had better watch him or he will' be carrying away some pre cious jewel from their midst, one of these days. University; Magazine. We have received the February number of the N. C. University Magazine. The number before us contains a bio graphical sketch of the late Hon. J. C Dobbin accompanied by a lithograph likeness. TheMaga- zine contains a quantity of valuable reading. The Southern Conference. The Richmond Whig asks: .. " Will Virginia can Virginia desert her bor der sisters and others of her sisters not on the bor der, and cast in her lot with the Disunion States ? Is Virginia willing to play secoud fiddle to South Carolina, and Alabama, and Mississippi, as play sec ond fiddle she must, if she consents to p into a Conference with them, while all her border sis ters, and many others positively refuse to go into such Conference.". 11 ; Nerth Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, Mary land, Delaware and Missouri, it is urged will, not follow South -Carolina, i , : "' i. - - - ' " ..

We learn by gentlemen down last night that the Governor and his council, on Wednesday, appointed J. W. Osborne, Esq., of Charlotte, to fill the vacancy on the Superior Court bench, va cated by the resignation of Judge Caldwell, and that George Howard, Esq., of Wilson, was ap pointed to fill the vacancy occasioned by the res ignation of Judge Manly. Very Acceptable. Our friend R gives ns a very readable letter from York Collegiate Insti- tutue and we trust he vf ill write again, and often. He can gither many news items in that locality which will prove generally interesting through out the State, and then he might give a series of readable letters descriptive of the climate, moun tain scenery, population, productions, &c. Our low-landers who have never visited that romat- ic region of our mountain country know noth ing of its beauties or the invigorating, life-giv ing properties of the climate. Wt have been in that section, and have feasted our eyes on the grand panorama that opens to the view, and the impressions made upon our innermost being by its grand sublimity will never be effaced. The Negroes Canaan. The N. Y. Tribune calls Canada " the Canaan of the colored man's hopes." Should think it was, especially in the vicinity of Chatham where the negroes are throt tling the whites for resisting: their presumptuous demands for political and social equality. Greely may be a philosopher but he knows nothing of the negro's nature. No, not if he thinks Canada with it3 chilling blasts is Cuffy's Canaan. Sambo's Ca naan is the southern cotton field, corn buskin, or camp-meeting. Give him these and his bacon and hominy and he is as far removed from the troubles encountered by the free negro in Canada, as Greely is from common decency, What They Intend to Do.-The Washington correspondent of the N. Y. Evening Post, in re ferring to the difficulty between Messrs. Edmund son and Hickman says : I think it is safe to say thafi the offence will not again be repeated this winter, for evry Re publican member will henceforth be prepared for any assault, at any time, even at the breakfast and din ner table, for southern gentlemen choose most sin gular places and occasions to attack northern Re presentatives. Some time ago when Mr. Haskin dropped his pistol from Ins coat, Clemens, of Vir ginia, made a great ado over it he, however can see why it is that members go armed. When he can teach his colleagues manners, let him call for a disarmament, and not before. Accommodation Trains. On ana after this day the freight trains leaving Xewbem Fridays, Mon days and Wednesdays at 5 A. M., for Goldsboro', will run a passenger car attached for the accommoda tion of persons wishing to avail themselves of it. Re turi ing Saturdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, the ac commodation train will leave Goldsboro' at 5 A. M. and arrive-at Newborn at 12 M. Ti;e train leaving here at 0 A. M., will reach Goldsboro' at 1.30 P. M. ThH arrangement will we doubt not Hfford conside rable accommodation to way travel along the line, and it will alo add to the convenience of those above us who do their buying and selling in Newberu. Coming. The Parker Family are now playing at Raleigh to good houses. We learn that it is their intention to open at our Theat re some time next week. Oae notice will be given of the time. This troupe draws well every where they go and we doubt not but .hey will be favorably received by our people. Si-KD'NG Timk. Spring with all its beauties and its gonial warmth will soon be upon us. Already has the time arrived for gardening to commence. Irish potatoes, peas and other vegetables may be planted now, and if the weather remains as pleasant as it was yesterday for a few days we may expect to see gar dening commenced in good earliest. Fukiuht for Eukofe. We learn that 10 cars freighted by Xewbern merchants and shippers went down yesterday with freight tor the vessel now load ing at Mtrehead City for Liverpool. CALIFORNIA. We are indebted to a friend in San Francisco for California papers. Tho most important news by them however has been antic ipated by ihe overland mail. COXGKCIOKAIi. Washington, Feb. 15. SENATE. The Senate to-day receded from the abolition of the franking privilege, and passed the postal bill by nearly a unanimous vote. The bill was signed by the President, and is now a law. HOUSE. In the House three ballots were taken for print er, Defrees lacking but one vote of election on the last. Various bills were introduced on various sub jects ; including the French Spoliation, the Tariff Interdiction of Polygamy in Utah, Pensions for soldiers of 1812, and the admission of Kansas. . Mr. Pryor's resolution was passed, instructing the Committee on Commerce to inquire into the expediency of action, with a view to procure a re duction of foreign duties on tobacco. A resolution was adopted authorizing the Ser geant at-Arms to arrest Sanborn, John Drown, Jr., and Redpath for their contempt in refusing to obey the summons of the Investigating Commit tee. After passing the Postal Bill, the Senate took up the bill abolishing the Franking Privilege, which, after a long debate, was passed. The bill cuts off all franking privilege after the 15th of April, with the exception of those to whom the privilege has been granted by name. Only Hemphill and Williamson voted against it.

York Collegiate Instituue.N. C , Feb. 11th. Ib60. Dear Progress : With yoar permission, I will occupy a small portio of your paper. It may not, I hope.be thought improper to call the atten tion of the public to the improvements of Thoraas ville, especially to the manufactures. This pleasant village is located in Davidson connty, upon each side of the N. C. R. R. Its site is beautiful. The town is one mile in length ; but the building are not so closely crowded to gether as in some places. I visited Mr. J. Shelley's Shoe Manufactory, and was politely shown into all the departments. This manufactory is exclusively devoted to ma king ladies' and misses' shoes. Mr. Shelley's shoes are superior to any of Northern make. It, therefore, behooves merchants to consult their own interest, and purchase shoes made in North Carolina. The proprietor can supply almost any number in a short time. We next visited Messrs. C. M. &. G. Lines' Brogan Manufactory. There are about twenty five hands employed here. The shoes manufac tured here are of Northern sole leather and North Carolina upper. They are superior to Northern shoes ; because the leather is equally as good, and they are much oetter made, there being no sha vings nor paper in them. There have been two brick shops added to Messrs. Lines' factory. They are, therefore, well prepared to supply North Carolina with better shoes at home than can be purchased from any Northern house. Now there is much talked of about home manufactures, but comparatively few persons encourage them. But we see no good reason why onr farmers should not call upon our merchants for Messrs Liues" brogans and Mr. Shelley's ladies and misses' shoes. Let them make the call and the mer chants will purchase a stock with which to sup ply them. But no one need entertain the idea that these shoes can be sold as low as those filled with chips and paper. .. They can, however, be sold cheaper than the best Philadelphia make ; for workmen can be hired as cheap and boarded for less thau in Philadelphia, while the material is about the same. We called upon tho editor of the Thomasville Era, and, although busily engaged, we found him a social, clever gentleman. Mr. Bacon informs us that he has not moved here for the purpose of speculating upon the people; but he intends this as a permanent location. He wishes to be able to supply his readers with a good paper; and. in return, he expects to receive from them encourag ment and patronage. He is an elderly man, and, although partially blind, he and his children are the only ones employed in his office. He de serves the sympathies of the public, and, we hope, his paper will merit the patronage of the same. The Thomasville Era has already been im proved, and the editor says he intends making farther improvements. Glenn Anna Female Seminary is in a flourish ing condition. There are ninety-three students in school, and more arc expected. This institu tion is well known to the public, and is well wor thy the patronage which it receives. The citizens of Thomasville, as far as we could learn, are kind and hospitable. We must hasten to a close. Having spent a day at Thomasville, we stepped into the cars, and bid adieu to those around. After some fatigue, we arrived at York Collegiate Institute. This in" stitution is now in operation. There are between thirty and forty students. The number is larger than could bo expected, considering that the school was suspended for nearly two years. The Principal, Mr. Mat ter, is a gentleman well worthy of the responsible position he occupies. His suc cess at East Bend Academy is a sufficient guar antee of his abilities to build up a flourishing school here. Respectfully Yours, . R Our Washington City Correspondnscf. Washington City, Feb. 13. I860. Editor Progress: The standing committees of the House have been announced, and a reference to the list will show that with the exception ' f some six or seven, they all have at their heads the most intense Helperites. Five of the commit tees are presided over by South Americans ; John A. Gilmer, of N. C, being at the head of the im portant committee on Elections. This is quite a shrewd move on the part of tho Republicans who thus seek to' express their gratitude for past ser vices and at the same time bind sliil more closely to their party interests, these southern allies. While Gilmer and Etheridge may be flattered by this distinction (?) conferred by abolitionists, the majority of their party look upon it with dis favor, and the inevitable result will be that they will not recognize such leaders arid that these two gentlemen who have all along played into the hands of the Republicans will be thoroughly identified with that party. In connection with these committee appoint ments let me relate something of an amusing character. A South American ; friend of mine, who represents in part one of the valley States, and who is acknowledged to be a polished satirist and fond withal of a good joke discovered his name registered as a member of the committee on Militia. Assuming an air of almost melancholy gravity he approached Mir. Tompkins, the Chair man, and stated to hitn that he wa3 on his com mittee, and as he was a new member and his con stituents expected him to make his mark here, he desired to be posted as to the duties of a commit teeman on the Militia where they held their meetings, when, &.c, &c. He was told that it met "somewhere " in the Capitol and that tl o business was , well it would appear when the committee met. Vague answers from the Chair man induced the humor loving member to extract some fun out of the starchy Speaker. The pri vate colloquy was something like this : Member " Mr. Speaker you have put me on the 'Militia' committee what have I to do what are my duties ?'' Speaker "Very important committee very." Member " So I should imagine, but most won derfully neglected as I find, after employing two detective officers to make the search, that no re port has been made by this committee since the adoption of the Constitution. Where do we meet?" -: Speaker" Can't say ' gomewhere in the Capi- toi." ----- ; : ; - Meaibar " I hare looked Tor the roomCaptain ! Tompkins has looked for it eleven pages and four messengers have hunted all day for it aud it cannot be found." , Speaker, stiffiy " I refer you, sir, to Captain Tompkins f..r informati-jn." . Member" Well, sir, I shall expect the House to give my committee a clerk, and that an officer of this House be sviit out to collect the John Brown pikes, which properly belong to my com mittee and furthermore I shall require a phono graphic reporter. With these mod. st requests granted, our committee can set and hatch, without impairing their self-respect." The Speaker's prompter, Thad. Stevens, having been called t-fi no answer was returned by the august head of the House, who closed the interview with a stare of astonishment and perplexity. ; On Friday afternoon a personal collision oc curred between Messrs. Edmundson of Va., and ! Hickman of Perm. About half past 3 o'clock .Messrs. iviuiuudson, Keitt, and ttie ice Presi dent, were returning from the Capitol to. tTieir lodgings and when about half way down, Ed niundson, who was in the centre, asked Keitt to give him the outside without giving him any .ex planation In a minute or two they overtook Hickman, when Edmundson advanced close to him and said " You took occasion, sir, in your late j-pjech at Willard's Hotel to insult my Sta:e, and thus insult me one of her representative?. For the foul mouthed slanders then uttered, you deserve punishment, coward and paltroon, and I intend to inflict it." Immediately he struck .Hickmari across the face with a switch cane, when both parties sought to clinch, but were prevented by Messrs. Breckinridge and Keitt, who, each taking the bellicose members, bore them off to their homes.' There is some talk of the Republi can's purpose to offera resolution for Edmundsnn's expulsion froin the House for this attack, hut 1 do not think they seriously meditate such a step. Mr. Edmundson, it will be remembered, accom- j panied the lamented Brooks, of S. C, when he made his assault upon Sumner and was arraigned before the House with a view to his expulsion. I am no apologist for or advocate of personal as saults, but I should have been delighted had Ed- ! mmidson been permitted to have ended a work which he so well begun. This 'man Hickman, however, is sunk too low for a gentleman to chas tise ; despised and shunned by those w hom he has betrayed and so'ld, he is now only tolerated by his new political associates, because he never shrinks from performing the dirty work of their party He is a political bravo ready and willina to sell his services to the highest bidder The house has not yet got fairly under way and nothing of great interest i.s doing in either branch of Congress. The Post Office deficiency bill hangs tire in consequence of tiie Senate's amendment to abolish the franking privilege. w The guillotine is still at work in the offices at the Capitol. Among the recent appointments appears the name of Ben Perley Poore, as clerk to the committee on For eign Affairs. Ben Perley is a character. He once acquired a notoriety by trundling a barivw of green pippins from some little town to Boston city; about the most useless and yet useful work he ever performed. He was then a Know Noth ing of the Boston stripe. Later he is found in the office of the administration organ in this city wri ting for its local columns, and dashing off in his leisure moments those "Jenkins" letters to the New York Herald, a batch of maudlin fusti m whose disgusting toadyism drew upon him the severest cas igation from the press. He now ap pears as a clerk to a Black Republican committee. Ben Perley is a decided progresrdonist In the theatrical line we have been amused by the petformanci s of the sprightly Maggie Mitchell, the protean delineator. " Ma-igi's' blue eyes arid pretty li-ixen curls have proven an attractive card, and the house is nightly fi.lei by the elite of Washington As to parlies the number in creases as the days of Lent draw nigh, all seem ingly resohed t. crowd as much fun and frolic in the few days left as can well be done. Perhaps one of the most elegant affairs of the season was given last week by Mrs Secretary Toucey. The rooms were crowded uncomfortably so with one of the most brillian assemblages ot the whole season. Mad. Bodisco, escorted by Cajtt ticott, of the British Navy, attracted a great deal of no tice. Her dress was of the most magnificent des cription, beinor a. pale yellow silii skirt, - over which was worn a costly lace, one loop -d a: the side with a cluster of diamonds. Diamonds gleamed upon her wrists her throat and wreath ed her dark brown hair. As the thronir j ass slow ly along from the point w here Mrs. Toucey is reciving, Mrs. Senator Yulee is seen with lu r pretty face and engaging mariners. Then Mrs. Gov. Fitzpatrick, a lady of line personal appear ance and as thoroughly versed in politics as the Governor himself. Atone end of the room is seen Mrs. Lamar, of Miss., whose rich but simple dress is in such perfect keeping with her modest and unassuming manners. Tho conversational pow ers of this iady has attracted quite a number of pleased listeners.' A .little rarlher on Senator Toombs looms into notice with his beetiinp brows contracted as though looking on a scene he des pised, while clinging to his arm i.s a beautiful bidy from Georgia whoso bright sallies win a sar donic smile from this "impetuous tiiunderer." Just over the way is Clingman who seems to be thinking of every thing. but the bright little body by his side who spears him with her keen irony. A little fart her on is Mrs. -Roger A. Pry or a fair daughter of the Old Dominion and i few steps re moved is Pryor himself straight, erect and bold ; his long hair thrown behind his ears and the keen blue eyes scintillating and flashing with tire , as he converses ; the firm compressed lips indicate the man of nerve and will, while the features as an entirety appear when in repose, like those ot a woman in their softness and delicacv. Near Mrs. Toucey is Secretary Cobb wiih his broad, jovial face, one dimpled smile, doing the agreeable to Mrs. Secretary Thompson; by their side is Lord Lyon's an unassuming,'foro?ii Britisher, looking as though he thought the whole affair very Ameri can and very stupid. My limits will not permit a more extended notice of the notables preteut at this reception and I must close my letter with this imperfect sketch SHIRLEY. FIIKCF, DAYS LATE il lion ElKOPE.
