The contributors ,to the worlt.irV .the Senior Clss attached to the University of North Caro lioft? The publisher is Mr. Thomas Loeino, who offers' this reilly clegantlyexeculed work at the moderate price of $3 per annum..; We have UwkeiLovor the number in question with much interest, and perceive that its contents are almost entirely original. This would be, per haps,, no verystaong recommendation, were they merely original in the ordinary acceptance of the term ; but the articles,, numerous and diversified, are really good, each in their way. Twenty years ago, such a publication in North-Carolina, would have been' looked upon as a literary phe nomenon, and it conclusively proves two flings ; That there is a much higher cultivation of the1 mind, generally, among the rising generation : And, that an enterprising and intoliigent pub liaher can put it successfully into requisition.

A very delicate aud interesting surgical ope ration was performed at the Baltimore) Infirmary fin the lCih ult. ' The patient was a beautiful and. interesting little boy, aged twenty months, who had, some two months ago, got a water-melon seed in his windpipe, (raw (lie effects of which he had suffered much, and in time must inevita bly have died. The operation of Tracheotomy," as it is technically termed, wa performed in the ehort space of ten minutes, The patient was placed un a table in the centre of tho ball, bis head held steadily arid an incision made by the operator, about three-fourths of an iiich in length, through the iategumonls "of the throat. This being accomplished, by means of other instruments the orifice was distended, and in a moment sub sequent, the professor's most intricate operation -was successfully crowned by the eeed being forced out of the windpipe.

Mr. Gales: I was present, yesterday, at" the celebration of Washington's binh-day, and the dedication of the Log C'abiaat Foresttrille, and a most entlHisiastio meeting it was,-! assure you. Such, as 1 have not witnessed since the days of 1810. Every Whig seemed, buoyed up at the opportunity of re-eoliiUing as a. soldier of the same cause, in which be had gallantly and vie to. riPUBly lQught. Jjl bygajisilay 8k... TiiftJClubw.aa.. called to order, and the meeting opened by a fer vent Prayer to the Throne of .Grace by Elder Thomas Chocker, after which the Secretary read Washington's Farewell Address. At its close, Gen. D. 8. Cbenshaw delivered an Address 'Jwhich was received with enthusiastic cheering. I ill not dwell on its merits, but give the fol. lowing extract froui it': " In the name of Wash UiGTox, oa Columbia's free soil, I dedicate this Cabin to the best interests of the country, and fbe advanceibant of Henrt Cr.ATi and earnestly solicit the co-operation' of every friend of free dom, who desires to aid its preserving free from coutomination thogp principles which he hat be queathed to us." ' The Secretary's book was then opened, and proclamation roads that all who wished to join the Club should register ..thair name j where upon, 40 canto for w a rj far i bar uf)wo i- Calls being made for Mr. Suit, lie rose and dolivered a short and fpiri.ed Speech, which gave great atiefaclioH. P. II. Winston was then called out, and we have seldom heard -so able a defence of Whig principles. Ho dwelt at some length on tho position our patty at present occu pies, showing it to be more in accordance wi'ih Democracy as entertained by Washinotos and Jefferson than that profese4byamodcrii Demo. crats, who were in favor ol rhtaitiing tiie Veto power unrestricted, the most Federal clause in the Constitution, and annexed to suit the views of Hamilton. His Speech gave), great satisfac tion, end we were proud to hear one so young contending so ably for Whig principles. There were between 80 and 100 persons pre sent, and tlio meeting broke op in perfect good feeling and harmony, determined to attend the next assembling of the Club oa the second Sat urday of March, at 2 o'clock. We should be pleaded, at that time, to sett" our Whig brethren of Wake County, and particularly, those of the Press in Raleigh. A COON. FOR THE REGISTER. Mr Gales: Not since the election of Gen. Hariuson, have I been'tnore gratified, political ly, than I was to see in the Register of the 0th, the name of Gov. Morehead brought forward by a correspondent, as the Candidate of the VVh.g party, fr tto office of Vic President of the Uni ted States. Gov. MoREHEAD.is eminently qualified in every respect to lill that office, or the office of Presi dent, should there again be a Vacancy by the act of Providence. I am surprised that his name lias hot been sooncf brought forward by his friends in thisSlnte, to fill that high and responsible office. I have known Gov. Morehead ever since he was Gottcj iter and" asyottf correspondent very j nsU lyremnrks, he-is a great and a good man ; and I can say with all sincerity, that 1 have never known his superior. Take hini altogether, ho is One uf Natare'a noblest sons ; bo man has a gToatur reyulationrtionj! his acquaintances for native intellect. I have conversed 'with many Whigs duriiitr the last week, and tbey all seem perfectly dehhted at tne idea of (retting up a Ticket lor Clat and Morebead. What a ire--mendous vote such a Ticket would receive in this State 1 And I may say in other Slates too, when the Governor's character is kuown and understood- His character, in many respeclf, is niore like Gen, Harrison's than any one with whom I air. acquainted; I expect hooeSt John Davis ' wiil have many warm friends in the National Convention. lie is a ffentleinun f inestimable worth, for whom the Whigs entertain the kindest feelings, and will support h m should he be the nominee of t he Con vention t but, notwithstanding all the regard we have for hitn, we would '.much rather see.Gov. Morehead on the Whig Ticket for- the office of Vice President. ' Marsachusetls'would have no right to complain, if Gov. Morehead should re ceive the nomination. She has already had her Share of Federal, offices, and North Carolina on the other hand, has repeatedly been overlooked in that particular, when she haa always been able to bring forward as many gentleioan of real talents as any other State in the Union. If Mr. Badger, rand the Hon. A. H- SsEfPERD, and the other gentlemen composing, the Delegation from, this State to the National Convention, will take a firm aland ia favqr of Morehead bur chance of fretting the nomination for bin is at least proba- tet..-.i,..T .

Mr. Hanneiran.of Indiann, mldiesfei the Senate in a very warlike speech in favor of abrogating the 3d article of the Convention with Great Bri tain of 1818, for the joint occupancy of tho Oregon territory. Mr. Dayton took a wore -pacific view of this question. Ho raised one very important inquiry, viz : What was to be done with the title ami pre sence of some hundreds of thousands of Indians now in possession of this much coveted wilder ness. Jlr. p. spoke up to the hour of adjourn ment, Thft Senate adjourned. House of Representatives Mr. Adams, as soon aa the journal was read, rose nl dea red to correct an important error in yesterday's proceed ings. The vote on the resolution for suspending the rules, in order to fix on the day of May ftext for-the adjournment of t'ongress, was tneor rectly recorded. Th record was, ayes 108, hoes 54 jut two-thirds tho Speaker votod in the negative, and thus the motion was lost. The slurp-eyed vigilance of Mr. Adams had detected that Mr. Slidoll's vote in the ullirmalivo was set down in the negative. Mr. Slidell confirmed this fact, and after some discussion between Messrs Hhett, Uroonigoole, Adams, and others. Mr. Siidell -was permitted-"to" change his vote thus making ihe the result ayes 109, noeM ; so that the Speaker lost the cast ing vote. Mr. Rhett protested strenuously against the decision of tho Chair, that this subject was now In Ofdef before th House'. Many were present now who were absent yesterday, and tice versa. He appealed from the decision of the Chair. Mr. J. R. Ingcrsoll said the House could no take notice; of who was present or absent it had committed an error yesterday, and Was bound to correct it to-day. The. House was now getting Rrvolved in points of order: und to restore qiiiet, Mr. Henley, tho original mover of the cluef resolutionr-witlv ihe. consent of tne House, withdrew it, ana gave no tice that he should otfe'r it again on Tuesday next. twenty fiasT acta. Mr. Rogers, of N. Y. continued this stale dis. cussion. He argued that the action of this House on the right of petition had tended to increase tho a'boliiionists all over the country ; but a few yeirs agothey were only handful in New York, and now they bold thebalance of power in that Stata ; 6 it was in Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vecaiont, Mssachtisetu, and elsewhere.

A prodigy of musical genius, he his also been a wanderer in almost every part of the world, and has encountered adventures of the wildest and most perilous character.

' Early in the year of. ItSlO, a large party was formed in ypper India, on the Wost baiik of'tliO Ganges, about seventeen hundred miles' abovo Calcutta, to hunt tigers which abounded in that vicinity.

Suddenly,, as thoy up proa hed a jungle, one of the elephants shewed signs of alarm, and gave notice of the vicinity of a tiger. T ha party who wore on the elephant observing the bushes to move, fired among them, in hnpea ofwounding the animal. The young "Kero"nl3vnSura was; aTlhe rflraa wTihTh a few yards of the jungle, advancing to quiet his restive horse, which was much frightened. His gun hung cjirelessly on the pommel of his saddle, when the jungle opened at his side and an enor mous tiger sprang upon hia horse, lacerating his shoulder, and learing outaome of the horso's ribs and entrails j aa. they, rolled to the ground, tho gun was thrown to the distance 'of several foot, and the gentleman was for a moment stunned by the fall. . - Recovering his consciousness and presence of mind in a moment, he drew a pistol from his boll, and observing the tiger, which had beon carried by impetuous bounds, somo yards beyond him, preparing to renew his, spring, he raised himself ,on one kuee,, and taking deliberate aim, tired just as the tigqr bounded forward.
