If is with pleasure we refer to the new advertise of Messrs. Baxter, Nash & Co., of Nor folk, Va., in our issue this morning. We can recommend these gentlemen with perfect confidence, as we know them personally and can bear testimony to their uprightness, high standing and thorough reliability. They a:e build ing up a handsome and rapidly increas ing trade in this State, and are eminent ly deserving the large patronage tbey are receiving at the hands of the people of North Carolina. A better house in their line cannot be found. I North Carolina Agricultural Statistics. From the monthly report of the Department of Agriculture at Washington, D.

Wilkes Bottom crops average ; uplauds one-sixth above. Stokes Not so good on bottom, but better than usual on uplands. Bun combeExtraordinary crop, flinty, sound and heavy.

Pasquotank Yield one third short. Greene Crop , shortened by several causes ; many top-bolls did not open. Marlborouerh Yield after all deductions about equal to last year, with 10 per cent, more acreage : killing frost October 12 and 13, a month ear lier than last year. Gaston Our high hopes fully realized. Mecklenburg Better than expected, though early frost was lniunous. Moore Four-fifths picked and one-half marketed : fine picking season. Cumberland Acre age and yield increased 5 per cent. each: scarcity of hands: frost and rains render much of the later ;rop yellow or stained.

The Anniversary Supper op the Raleigh Club. The first anniversary supper ot the Raleigh Club, on Friday evening, at the Club room, to which we made brief reference yesterday morn ing, was a thoroughly enjoyable affair, We would like to give the lull proceed ings oi tnat interesting and loyous oc casion together with the . many pleas ant incidents of the evening, but our space iorbids. The elegant and sumptuous supper, the sparkling bon mots, the numerous toasts and pleasant responses, "the feast ot reason and the flow ol soul, the hilarity, cordiality and general enjoy ment, combined to make the nrst annu al re-union of the Raleigh Club a most delightful epoch in it history. The events of the evening will long live in the memory of all who were lortunate enough to be present and participate in their festivity and mirth. The supper was in Pepper s best style, and embraced the choicest delicacies of the season.' Spiritual refreshments of the highest order and prepared in the most elegant style of the art, flowed abundantly ; and what is highly credit able and remarkable, notwithstanding there were some lorty persons present. not a single individual partook too freely ot ' the tempting beverage, and not the slightest evidence of inebriety was manifested by any one throughout the whole evening, from eight to twelve o'clock. This is in the highest degree commendable, considering the nature and surroundings of the festive gather- It would be difficult to find in any city a more intelligent, refined, or socia ble set of gentlemen than the members of the Raleigh Club, and the perfect decorum and gentility that characterized their deportment onFrK day evening is sufficient evidence of the truth of this assertion. The first toastafter supper was over, was to the health of the worthy and distinguished President of the Club, Hon. D. M. Barringer, who had just been re-elected, which was appropriate ly responded to by that gentleman, and alter that numerous but brielimpromp tu speeches were delivered by various members, in response to the calls ot the company. The crowd dispersed in the best humor about midnight all highly pleased that the evening had been spent so agreeably. Sign changes and gate lifters arc still complained of. The Facts About toe Small Pox in Weldon. As the fact of the exis tence of the small-pox? in Weldon has created some excitement in many quar ters, and even in our midst, owing to the daily communication between that place and Raleigh, we copy the follow ing from the Roanoke New of vester day : "So many groundless rumorsand var nished tales have been circulated about the prevalence of small-ppx in Weldon that we make the faCw-ing plain state ment in justice to ail:"' Mr. Henry Howard, who had been exposetTto the contagion of the disease in Petersburg, some three or ipur weeks ago, was at tacked with it sixteen days since. At the time he was occupying a room in the old Emry House. Dr. Manning having 'pronunced it small-pox, "the Commissioners had the patient removed to a house out of town and competent nurses engaged to attend the case. The room . from which he was taken was ! properly fumigated, all communication with the temporary hospital, except through the attending physician,cut off: and, in fact, every other warranted pre caution taken to prevent its spread. "Over two weeks has elapsed since this, the first case, was , taken, and no new one has occurred, nor i3 there the slightest probability, or hardly possi bility, in view of careful restrictions, tha there will be another case. 44 As was very natural, the outbreak of small-pox in our midst-created quite a panic, and business in every line wan- stagnant for a few days, but thanks to the great care and cool judgment, piomptand discretion, of a few, the excitement has abated, business has re- vived, and no further fears are felt. "Confidently believing that the dis ease will not spread, and that there need be no lears on the part of any one visiting our town, we inyite them to come, assuring all, in the meantime, that no effort will be spared to prevent further spread of the malady. As some have expressed fears of the disease beinglcommunicated through our paper, as the editor attends the case, weVould say, injustice to our selves, that Dr. Manning has, and will have nothing to do with the paper in mailing or setting it up, therefore our subscribers can have nothing to fear on that score. - "We will keep our readers advised ot the progress of the present case and any others that might possibly arise." Emigration from the State A Thing to be Deplorkh. We learn with. regret that during the month of December 112 emigrant tickets were sold at Company Shops, on the line of the North Carolina Railroad, besides large numbers sold at other.points on the sanie road. The larger portion of these emigrants were whites, and the princi pal point of destination was Memphis, Tennessee, from there, doubtless, to seek homes in the still farther west. Thi3 is a most lamentable fact that our citizens should find it necessa ry, and that, too, in such numbers, to remove to other States to make that living which North Carolina could so abundantly supply were only half her great wealth developed. We most earnestly call upwn those in power to devise some means to check this tide of North Carolina's yeomanry Which is thus daily going from our midst. There is but little use in invit ing immigration into the State, when we indiflerently allow our,own sons and daughters, who should leel kindly to wards their mother State, to go forth to other sections of the country to seek that which could and should be given them here with unstinting hand. This is a matter lor serious consideration, and should be looked into by our Gov ernor and by our Legislature. Let poli tics be forgotten in this effort to save to North Carolina that bone and sinew which could add greatly to the develop ment ot the immense stores of wealth Which to-day lies dormant in her bosom.
