The Western Expositor. We have
just received the first number of the
"Western Expositor," a new paper
which has been started at Asheville, N.
C, by Thomas D. Carter and Willough
by F. Avery, Esqs.
The first issue presents a most hand
some and elegant typographical ap
pearance, and displays much ability in
its editorial columns.
The paper is devoted mainly to the
interests of the Western section, is
Conservative in politics, and purposes
to wage a bold and uncompromising
war against all Railroad and other
swindlers.
The "Expositor" takes strong grounds
against the sale of the Western Road,
and on this question antagonizes the
position of the Asheville "Citizen"
and the "Pioneer." . ?

idiots, &c, in the operations oi the lavv
allowing idiots to draw 100 per annum
lrom their counties ; and referred to the
fact that Wilkes county alone drew
$1,G00 this year, in addition to their
insane now in the Lunatic Asylum. He
thought the Insane Asylum now in this
city amply sufficient for the unfortu
nates in the Stale that could be reclaim
ed (and this was the contemplation of
the move, only.) if extra arrangements
were to be made, he thouj ht. Raleigh

Mr. Murphy replied to several of the
objections offered by Messrs. Welch and
Worth. In; his remarks he reierreu t
the statistics to show that the clarS ot
unfortunates that this resolution pro
poses to favor, have been sadly neglect
ed in the State. He thougtit some
means should be adopted to enlarge the
capacity for the tale keeping and pro
tection of the lunatics. He proposec
that arrangements should be made by
