We understand that the Declaration of Indepen ,1-nce will be read by Mr. George W. Rains, and an Oration delivered by Mr. Monroe T.

The citizens of our town have once more given their attention to the subject oflnternal Improvements, ia such a manner as warrants us in hoping that some plan will be adopted to save the state for herself. Whether it will be defeated by jealousy, apathy, or timidity, we cannot say. Success will certainly be in eared if trie talent, influence, and wealth of the com munity combine in the enterprize. 4 The operations on the Swash are progressing hand eomclv. All our accounts from that quarter fortify the belief that a good and permanent outlet to the ocean will be completed in another year. For some interesting remarks on this subject, our readers are reierrcd to " The Victory's Log," in tins day's paper. We cannot be positive as to the reason, but this looks very much like it. Out of seven represented bo" roughs, the East has four the West two and one is on the border territory. This estimable privilege is to be taken from the towns, seemingly on account of the small advantage it gives to the commercial portion of the state. This is taking the "pound of flesh" over and above cthe bond." It may possibly be asked how we would reform the defects which we are willing to acknowledge. With this we have no thing to do. A Convention would be a source of great trouble, anxiety and expense to the state, and ifaisembled, would conjure up imaginary gorgonsand "dreams o' the night," as objects of suspicion. But let our brethren of the West who have taken to them selves the onn3 probandi, the labouring oar, pro pose some prudent and well advised plan of a limited Convention, and we would cordially acquiesce, but it reallv seems a hazardous experiment for small ad vantage, to throw every thing into chaos to be re modelled after the will and pleasure of a present majority. . by constant cheering through the city.

A young lady in the last stage of Consumption was lately restored to The Contention. u North Carolina will always follow in the wake of Virginia" said a paper of the latter state just at the commencement of a late Pre sidential contest. We have always denied this fact, though many in both States acquiesce in its truth. Some yeais ago an attempt was made to carry this Convention question in the Legislature of North Ca rolina, and it "failed totally. The politicians oi Vir ginia lately made the same attempt, which succeed ed. Obedient to impulse, another strong move is now made towards the same point in our own state; a sys'i emnlk niv well arranged attack upon the Con stitution under which we live. In a late number of the Sentinel, we expressed ourselves as favourably towards the question in agitation, as strict impar i inlity artd"n dtire for fair discussion '"would admit. We granted all the inequalities and defects of the present system which could be fairly pointed out, we expressed a hope that the subject 'might be satisfac-' torily adjusted, and that all sectional prejudices might be- merged into one combined feeling of patriotism. Wc hope so still. But "look upon that picture then on this," and the truth must force itself upwards, that our present Constitution is better with a few defects, than a future expectancy dependant upon the caprice of a majority, and surrounded by cir cumstances portending risk and danger. It is at all times a hazardous thing to break up the bonds of society, and set up the trade of constitution-makirig. The most awful instance of a revolution, fraught with licensed murder, robbery, and internal convul fcion, which reddens the records of the world, was prodoced by an unlimited Convention, that commen ced in moderation and prudence. 'Tis true that we need not apprehend the horrors which afflicted revo (iorary France; but we know full well that where the caicass is, there will the eagles be gathered toge ther, and ambitious, avaricious, designing and un principled intriguers will perch like ill omened crows upon the ribs, of the new-state-vessel, always ready (o mix in the scramble of a second Fortune's Frolic. The Committee appointed to frame an Address to the Tcople, Tecommending a Convention, have at length sent forth their manifesto, which like a bill of fare, contains things oJd and new in sufficient variety, and calculated to please a diversity of palates. But much of it, suits not our digestion. We see no mean ing in the continual burthen of oppression, slavery, taxation of a minority, and allusions to reform fn England and the miseries of Ireland. Is the West oppressed? Are the people of the West dispropor tionately burtriehed by direct taxation? Are they taxed without being represented ? I It seems a piece cf simplicity to ask such questionsbut absurd in ; tinuations beget absurd replies. The Western por tion of the State has had a full 6hare of the public trea sury, and state patronage. The highest offices of the state aiy filled by her citizens, circumstauces have in fact thrown the power into her hands, and yet some of her politicians indulge in a continuaUbne of com plaint. The Address of the Commitfdeals largely in promises of novelty, a kind of coin which will al ways find currency, whether sterling or not A con ttant recurrence is made to the fact, that the West has a majority m population, and yet the continual tenor of this address is in favor of bringing every thing into the power of that majority, the election c f Governor is to be transferred from the Legislature the mqouVy, the number of members in the Le tfalature "is to he cut down, thus giving increased lower to the jnajorUy and last, though not least, a blow is threatened against the unalienable ghts of the eitiasen by the abolition of Town Repre- cemtatiox This ia equivalent to an open declara lion ol a desire t engjjdph all power.

It can therefore be delivered on ship board at Ocracoke, fox thirty cents per barrel u&a than it can be at New York, provided the whole cargo liad to be lightered ; arfd by employing vessels ol the description I have Tncfl- tio-ied, there would not pc "eea 10 ngmer over , one quarter or third of the cargo, as the rest could be put in at Newbern. We could most easily, with nine feet water, have a direct commerce with Europe, as we might indeed, now have, were oor people actua ted by that spirit of enterprize, which urges on the citizens of the Northern States to undertakings of the greatest magnitude. Suppose that a ship was at Ocracoke, would it not be far better to put a catgp of naval stores and cotton on board of her, by paving the cost of lighterage, and sending it to Liverpool, than to pay forty cents a barrel to take it to New York, there to be put on board of their packets, aifd gire them commissions for its sale, and then go year ly to buy from them the very goods our produce way given in exchange for, at a high advance ? Jteer. tainly would be better. Better for the merchant, and far better for the farmer. The latter, instead of gct i tin or two dollars per barrel, for his turpentine, as he now does, ought to get two dollars and lorty cents ; for if the packets can pay, in ivew YprK, Two"doiiars and fifty cents per barrel, as they now do, by carrying it to the ship at Ocracoke, snv could atrord to pay as much as the packet at New Y jotk, as it woujo casting one as little to get it to the foreigi market as the other. Let the people of the West be assured tnat tney wui have ai outlet to the Ocean, and tfcat their produce can and will be sent to the foreign markets of tne? world via Ocracoke, from Newbern. Let the present attempt to render the navigation of the rfeuse fit lor Steam Boats to Smith field be pursued, run thence a Railroad westward through Raleigh, and the Ancient City will flourish like a green bay tree ; she will brr rescued reanimated and efljoy again the prosper ing times which once gladdened the hearts of her children. ; Friday, at 10 A. M. we left the Dredge Boat No. 1 in a sail-boat, and steered for Ocracoke. We. landed at Captain Pike's, where we were hospitably enter tained by that gentleman and hir. amiable lady. Ar- ter amner, i commencea my pilgrimage to tne liignt sens of North Carolina, we have seen with much gra tification the spirited efforts now being made in be half of Internal Improvement, and the great disposi tion to divert the trade of the State into its natural channels. : Resolved, That we do not incur the imputation of unreasonable selfishness, when we deprecate the ex tension of rail roads and canals from our sister States into the heart of our own country, whereby their rich es and prosperity are increased, and our own State impoverished, and its citizens driven Irom its soil to seek a competence and affluence elsewhere. . Resolved, That we will go heart and hand in the accomplishment of any plan whereby these evils may be remedied, and that we will concur with the deter mination of the Convention to be assembled at Ra leigh on the fourth of July next, in all such measures as may be devised for the Internal improvement of tkis section.of the State. .

Wednesday morning; the 19th of June, 1833, was the time fixed on for the Victory to sail from Beau fort for Ocracoke.
