The Wilmington Journal. This old landmark of North Car ina journalism has been greatly 0 enlarged and improved. While the Journal is the antipodes, politically, of the Era, it is nevertheless the only paper of its party that pays proper attention to the material and commercial interests of the people of North Carolina, and for that, if nothing else, the Era would feel gratified at its evidences of pros perity. The relations of the two papers have been very pleasant, and their conductors, on the very best terms, personally, and in pausing to greet the Journal in its new dress, the Era desires to clasp hands on the material interests of the people of Xorth Carolina, and together ex plore a field wherein political differ ences cannot obtain. The Journal takes the Era to task for omitting mention of its daily publication in 1851. The editor of the JZ'a is well posted on the his tory oJ the Journal and the omis sion was neither through ignor ance, nor intentional. The article on the press of the State, in the Era the other day, was prepared from ;i list made in the early part of io.31, before the Journal issued dai ly; and up to September 1851, when the Journal began daily, the Ral eigh Register, inthe hands of Sea ton Gales, was the only paper whk h had been published daily in the State. Mr. Gales began the Register. daily some time in 1850.' Koep up the Republican Lines. Republicans must not fall into the mistake of relaxing their party or ganization because we have again triumphed in the State and Nation. Other battles are to be fought on the line of National defence, and the Republic an party is the especial guardian of American liberty and the safe custodian of the govern ment of the Unite;! States. The enemy though routed and beaten are still alive, and their hope lies in the bare possibility of dissensions in Republican ranks,; The conduct of the State and National -governments require our constant and careful attention, and the safety and success of these lie in the perfect and permanent or ganization of the Republican party. Put none but Republicans on guard. Education Among the Colored People. Attention is invited to two com munications from colored teachers in Duplin . county. The progress the colored people are making in education, and their determination to have their children taught to read and write, is most gratifying; and their example ought to stimu late our white geople to more stren , uous exertions toward educating, their children. Those who have had so much to say about "negro equality," &c, wTill admit that atx educated negro is mentally superior to an uneducated white man, and if they have the horror of " negro equality," "negro superiority," &c they have pretended, they will see to it that the children of the white race are not led by the blacks in the matter of education. Oxe of the engines of the Wes tern North Carolina Road is re ported in the ditch a few miles west of Salisbury. Account of the run-off came too late for insertion.

Russ to tell what he knew about the po tato transaction, I expected you would hear from him, and. was not astonished when, instead of making a siraignworwarci, truthful state ment, he perpetrated a palpable falsehood. He said I applied to him to buy some "Irish potatoes" from him, and that I told him that I did not want them at anv price. Thi3 statement Militia Col. Russ knows to be false. Unfortunately for him, there were two or three persons present who heard me en quire the price of his potatoes, and beard him say owe dollar pet hush el. I offered to take twenty-five bushels at 75 cents, he refused to take it, and remarked that he had been selling to one of the other State Institutions , at one dollar. When I get this Militia Colonel before the Committee on oath, I will make him corroborate this statement if the truth can be cross questioned out of him. He shall tell the truth if I have to employ Hon. Bat. Moore to cross-examine him. It is well known that Mr. Moore will make him tell the truth if he has to insert a cork-scf ew down Kis throat and twist it out. He says "I offered the potatoes to him at low figures," but for the purpose of creating a false impression, fails to state what those figures were. He says, 44 1 saw Mr. Murray in company with Mr. - Boyland. I again applied to sell him my t4tur nips;" he said he did not want them at all. I then reminded him of the potatoe transaction ;" and I then reminded the Colonel in the pres ence of Mr. Boylan that he de manded one dollar per bushel for his potatoes, and refused to take less, and that I afterwards bought them at 7.5 cents from, another party. This he did not deny, but became considerably inflated and remarked, "You tickle me and I'll tickle you," and vamosed. The cause of this misstatement of facts by the Colonel is owing to my not "tickling" him to the tune of 25 cents extra per bushel for his po tatoes. Respectfully, Steward Murray, Local and News Departmnt. Cotton Market. Up to 4 P.' M.f to-day there had been 52 bales of cotton brought to this city. Price 18. Price in New York 20. Gold at lit. Our Last Night Exchanges. The Tarboro Southerner berates the Vance organs for their "ceaseless slan ders" on Judge Merrimon, who is "in every way, politically, intellectually aDd morally, the peer of the gentleman whom they seem to look np to as a be ing superior to , ordinary mankinds When these attacks cease' then the agi tation will cease and not before."

Mr. Wade ad vertised in the Richmond Dispatch that "the owuerjor owners will come forward, prove property, and take it away ;" but if this is not done, he declares that it is his intention to do the best he can for his new charge. - r The Philadelphia Inquirer says of the shooting of Andrew Strong,' the Outlaw : There can be no doubt that the late Mr. Strong was an undesirable neighbor, and that his taking off will not be likely to eclipse the gaiety of na tions, nor to plunge North Carolina in sombre gloom ; but it does not seem to us that thechivalric Mr. Wilson, who quieted Mr. Strong by putting eighteen buckshot into his head and neck, when his back was turned, is so superb a hero as the reports -allege him to be. Such a circumstance in itself argues a condition of society that very few could bring themselves to believe existed within the limits of the Union. Not only was it considered a perfectly justi fiable thing to shoot down, in cold blood, when his back was turned, this ruffian, Strong, but the one who did it was re warded hy county and State.and eleva ted to the position of a hero by the country beside. It is not in a new coun try, not among the rude miners of the Territories, but in one of the oldest States of the original confederation. that these things are done. It seems simply impossible to reconcile them with the spirit of civilization that ought to prevail to-day from one end of the country to the other, that ought to be as alive in North Carolina as in Massachu setts. jgg How New York rung out the Old' Year. The Sun says: The inside of Trinity Church was lighted up and tastefully decorated with evergreens. Such as were able to obtain admission, at tho eminent hazard of their necks, climbed up the windinjr stairs to, the belfry, where Messrs.

Far above the heads of the ringers the ereat bell were gtvThgtb -mo-i'itj' tuc lieu s m biiwu year ended. At a quarter before 12 the exercise began with the ringing of the changes on eight bells. This followed by "Yankee Doodle," and as the well known notes of the bid song were heard by the listeners in the street, a hearty cheer went up, and people began to wish each other a happy new year. Then, midnight having passed, the bells burst into the hilarious tune of "Champagne Charley," followed by, a number of airs of a similar description. At length came the Christmas Carol, and as the sweet notes rang out upon the midnight air the hearers below tes tified their appreciation of its correct rendering by cheering lustily. A Scott ish melody from the opera of 44 Guy Mannering" followed, after -which "Yankee Doodle " was given again. The exercises terminated about quarter past 12, with the playing- of 44 Home, Sweet Home," and the visitors of the belfry, of whom one ir two were ladies, began to' descend the winding staii-case. An Anecdote of the North Caro lina Bar . Some thirty years ago one Margaret Patterson sued Wm. McKoy in an ac tion of trover in the county court of Cumberland county ; and, as was usual under the old system, no pleadings were filed, but simply entries on the docket wall, showing the nature of the;action, Ac. Whereupon the counsel for the der fend ant demands a declaration by the following entry on the docket: Billy McKoy, for his satisfaction, " Demands of Miss Margaret the cause of her action, And wants to know why, in this public place, , She has undertaken to sue him in case. Whereupon the counsel for the plain tiff enters the following replication : Miss Margaret replies, with a kind of a snigger, Why Billy, you know, you converted my nigger, Converted him not to the God of the . sinner, But, converted him to cash, arid you're the winner, So having received and failed, to pay over, You ate therefore sued in an action of trover. , A "Wild Swan. 7 Phil Ttiems of this .city has a real wild swan, dead, sent him from Balti more or some of those places, hung out in front of his store.
