As stated in yesterday's issue, it was ye local's pleasure to spend three days of the present week in the pleasant little town ot'Louiaburg. the county sea Franklin county. Court being in sion the town was crowded with visi tors, both from the country arouod and abroad, and we never saw the town more lively. There is much about Louisburg to" make it lively, several fixed institutions known only to Louis btlrg, chiefest amtmg.whicfc, is the semi annual Horse Swaps on Cedar Hill. As some of our readers may not have seen our article on Cedar Hill last fall, we propose to give a briet history of this ancient and famous spot. Cedar Hill is a small knoll of about one and a half acresNin extent, covered with cedar trees, aftd though a part and parcel of tlie corporate limUs.ot Louisbarg, is nevertheless a fiee and independent regiOn,and.

One negroadtwo, the other one, and notpneoirfe horses had any "eyes tor to see S6on come up au old citizen wittj-a smaii uoo taiieti steer nucnea to a cedar cart. The steer added one more eye to the party. A brisk trade ensued. We looked on with la "ieeiing interest. Banters and offers werelreely made; finally the trade was effected - by the steer man giving a dry jaw hide as boot between the steer and the three horses. We thought he made a bad trade : the raw hide was worth more than all the stock together. : . The negroes chuckled over their Euccess; the steer man that was, but now the man of many horses, was deligh'eJ; we, the spectators, were sat isfied, and. a 11. quit the ground. In the evening tire" Swappi rig 'was more lively and the spectators more numerous. The entire court and Bar were present to witness the swapping. The Hud. Josiali Turner was present, and catching the infection, commenced a brisk trade with a one eved man lor a pair of dun colored eighteeu year old colts with no eyes. The one eyed man .thought the pair were wen worth f 20,bUt would take $10. We dou't think Mr. Turner traded. The swapping was continued through the night and part of Wednesday. ' Aa institution known to Louisburg, and one that never fails to delight nl iaterest uc, is the large and elegant' puo- lic dinners, gotten up by the ladies ior the.beueht ot the Church on every C urt week. The diuner prepared by the ladies ol the Methodist congregation on this oc ' casion was certainly thefintstand most sumptuous our mouth ever watered o er. auu never aui ye local enioy one more.

However we confess that we can't quite believe tbe statement made to as bj a thriving merchant that the street between his store and tbe Court House on Saturdays is as much blocked up with vehicles as the corner of . Broadway and Wall streets. - This may be true; but it is tOUgh.. : ' ' ' : ' One circumstance, however, greatly militates against the town, and it is a t of J grievance readjily removable. 'Its prin-ses- jcip'al 'hotel (we know nothing of the smaller; sew one) is almost unendurable. For instance, during Court week, when if ever, the best foot; should be put fore moit, lawyers upon arnving,were shown Inta'rooins 'wltli poor bedstone pine table, rough in the extreme, -one chair, a bowl and pitcher. Rapid : and forci ble language brought U3 a tumbler and a glass 4x6 inches. The tumblers, how ever, were. only, loaned and would be snatched from the" room early in the morning to grace the breakfast table. There was enuugh upon the. table, and a fair variety sometimes, but the cook ing was and 'has long bVen execrable. The bread would give an ostrich dys pepsia. The stools, serving as chairs tor some of the guests, would give an earth-worm the back ache. Every guest of the hotel, lawyers, and mercantile men alike, were loud in condemnation, . and justice demands that their complaint be made public. The owner of tbe hotel is abundantly able to give Louisburg what she so greatly needs; we hope that this will assist him in being .willing. A Deserved Compliment.

Douglas on the 10th of April. Col. Carrow is to have the superintendence ot erecting the Post Office building in this city, the phits for which are now uemg drawn, the building to cost $250,000. The fight between Ool. Ike Young and Wiley D. Jones, Esq., lor the office of Revenue Collector la still ragiug with much warmth, the chauces thought to be-in favor of Col. Young.

The driver 'ot the wagon went to Charleston. As badly scattered as this lot seems to have been, we saw the same white horses at their same old position in the same Wagon, and the same driver on the same boot, driving, not the same band, but another band, on the same streets as when Thayer spread his canvass here all on yestcr day- ; -; ' - . - - .

An adjourned meeting of the citizens was held at Metropolitan Hall last nigfit Hon. Kemp P. Battle presiding, to heaf the report of the different solicitidg committees to raise tunds for the prose : cution of the work upim the new Fair Grounds. The auxiliary committee appointed last week reported somethiug over two thousand dollars raised7 tyy them, making the subscription at pres ent a little less than $7,00. i , . The Executive Committee stated that they would not commence work until $10,000 had been raised in the city, be lieving that they could then obtain enough outside aid to complete the un dertaking upon the plans designed. Various suggestions -were made as to the best manner of raising the f 3,000 still wanted, but nothing definite deci ded up. Mr. Pescud stated that, the National Life Insurance Company, had authorized him to sav that they would loan the Society $5,C00 or, $10,000 fr. certain considerations. Mr. Kemp P. Battle explained that the charter of the Society made it 'per-' emptory upon the Executive Committee to have annual exhibitions' that; it they could not secure grounds at or near Raleigh, they would be compelled to hold it at some other place, or the char ter would be forfeited. - ; : ilr. C. M. Busbee said the Executive Committee must act at once, as no. time was to be lost. He felt a deep interest in the matter, and he did not think tbe citizens oi Raleigh had realized tbe dan-' ger of losing the Fair. He moved that, unless the requisite amount of money be raised by the 25th of this month, the' Execu.ive Committee , be autboriz ed to nrrange for the holding of the Fair at at some , other place, asd . that a new committee be appointed to consult with the citizens as to the possibility of raising the amount still needed.
