The interest of the lecture wa greatly en hanced by the' presence of a youth, who had been a pupil in the Staunton Institute, with whom he conversed by signs, and who gave undoubted, ev idence of the great facility With which routes can be instructed. . Mr Cook intends visiting different part of North Carolina, with the hope of being able to excite ufficient interest bo the subject, to enable.. him to establish a school in this State-lor tne in struction of our deaf and domb.

Cot ton speculations are probably at the bottom of the affair. The Banks and Agencies in Colum iuj are' said to be holders of time checks of lhe ehcer, for about $200,000. ITT It is stated by the Washington Correspon dent of the " New York Courier," that " the ma jority of the Senate' have adopted this as their principle nf action in relation to nominations; that, wherever, a good and competent person has been removed by the Executive, with the view o supplying his place with a personal adherent, however competent that successor may be, he will be considered as particept criminis, and wiU be invariably rejected." MR. CLAY IN GEORGIA. The distinguished Western Statesman srriveU at Columbus, Georgia, on tlie 11th instant, and was received with the liveliest enthusiasm. The j Columbii Enquirer says that tho number of per- sons that poured into tfle CHy on me winaou io.n, seemed to threaten an overflow or mat young and thriving city. That paper adds At eleven o'clock, the multitude, according to the programme, formed a procession, and, nnder the direction of Col. A. K. Ayer and his assistants, marched to the bridge, to meet and welcome the honored guest. ; At twelve he came, when, one loud welcome rent the air- Six beautiful creams, harnessed ia "r splendid Couch, tsonveyed htm to the Clay Club rdonv where the crowd was alrea dytassembrsdPassing through the room crow ded with the fay-,; Mr. Clay took a.station on a platform in front, where he was introduced to the distinguished men and public officers present. Col.

The reply of the great Orator of the Ukx, was worthy ot tne man mat maae u.

The State dock, et wa taken up. onWedneeday morning, andoc- cupied the Court until hue nn Saturday evening, Without being able to dispose of much more than one-half of the business. 4 jGreeu, a slave, lhe property of Mr. Hugh Wil son, of tliil county, indicted for Arson, was con. victsd, and sentenced to be hung on- Friday, the 20th of April nest, Dick, a slave; the property ofoMr. Samuel Mc Broom, of this county, indicted fur Burglary, and for an assault an a white female with an intent to eomtpit a rape, was coqticted,.and also sentenced to be hung en Friday, Jhe 20th of Ajwil next- Bradshaw Fuller, of Person county, indicted for passing counterfeit notes of the Farmer1 Bank of Virginia, was tried, and acquitted inconse quence of some technical Jefoct in the evidence. There is, howfver, ho doubt a to hi guiltv and though he has esoaped the lash of the law in tho present instance, it may not be long before full Uustice shall be meted out to him. In this connexion we must remark, that scarce ly a court peaces without some case occurring that calls loudly for tho establishment of a Pen itentiary. Out present mode of punishment for some offences is qujto too sanguinary,, and too little in confornfity with the feeling of society. It Was remarked" in our last Legislature, by a promising young member of that body, -that 4 North Carolina bad the bloodiest code of law of any Stats' in the Union ;" and we believe the facts sustain the aisciertinn. The two negroes who have been sentenced to be hung on the 26th of April next, are young serviceable.looking boys, and imprisonment fur life in a Penitentiary, would be an adequate punishment for their crimes ; While at the same lime we would be spared tho evils of a public execution humanity would be consulted, and these wretched criminals would' have time to reflect upon the consequences of their vices, and to prepare for a future state of existence.- ,We hojie tlint this subject will re. ceive the attention of our. next Legislature,' and that this reproach will be taken away.

After spending from 12 o'clock on Monday till this morning in Columbus, Mr. Ci.av left us to prosecute his long-intentled journey to Raleigh, where, by appointment, he is to be on the 12th of April. He has some business to transact in Sa vannah, as I understand, and will visit Milledge ville, Macon, and Augusta before he leaves our" Slate. His reception, hitherto, at Moble and in all the towns ami populous neighborhoods on his way thence to the frontier of Georgia, has been one" civic triumph. In Mobile, in Selma, in Mont gomery, and in Muscogee, nil part ie? combined to do him honor. Selma and Montgomery he en tered in the vain. Bi,t rain and sunshine were, the same to his enthusiastic fellow-citizens, to whom he truly said at the latter place that they were not fair-weather friends. In Muscogee, a place scarcely known beyond the limitsof Alaba ma, more than fifteen hundred persons waited many hours under a threatening sky to greet him. In despite of all his precautions to avoid par ty topics, it has been imposible not to read in the countenSncei 6 and to hear in their social converse, that they enter tain no hope of Mr. Van Buren's election, and are preparing to submit to their approaching de feat with good humor. It is now confidently predicted by many of the Whigs of Alabama that that State will vote for Mr. Clay. South-Alabama is known to be so inclined ; and nothing more U necessary than by mass meeting in North Alabama, to enlighen those who have been hoodwinked by .partisan presses, in order to conform their opinions to those of their southern neighbors. Of the constancy of Georgia to the sentiments she h lately manifested, no well-informrid man doubt. Had distrust existed, prior to Monday last the event of that day would have banished it. From tbe tops of the highest buildhigs from windows, doors', and platforms, crowded with fe male spectators from the spacious streets of Columbus, thronged, literally Closed up by an enthusiastic multitude, gathered from every part of tbe widespread territory of Georgis, shouts of applause rent the air a Mr. Clay replied with intense emotion to the address of Mr. Holt. In coBtemplatingth bright prospect stretching beyond the, gloomy desert we have now nearly crossed, you will, ss 1 do, find consolation for past affliction and gather hope tonne iumre. Aof. Int.

It is our mslancholy duty to record knothpf of those dreadful calamuics against which no human foresight cuil guard. On Friday morning, a Locomotive, with a Train of fhirty.Uvoburthmi Cars, lull the. Depot of tho Petersburg and Roanoke Road, at about 0 o'clock. After passing the first curve on the road, it was discovered that one of the Cars had got off the track, and the Engine was of course immediately stopped j the Engineer getting down to see what was the nature of the difficulty. A soon as the Car had been again placed on the track, the En gineer returned to his pOHtand put tho Engine in tnotkMv. No stioner- had l dow so, thttn tha Boiler burst -teaiirj the Engine to atoms, and tho Engineer literally into pieces ; nt tho same time killing ar NHgroman, who was n fireman, and injuring another- The body of the Engineer Was blqwn into three pieces, the head having been carried 50'or 60 yards on o;a ido of the road, that portion of his body between the head and the waisi rarrifu a miuiiur uibiuucc u uik uuici andthe part frort the hipdown falling some 40 yard from the Engine oh fhe right-hand nideof the road, The entrails were scattered about in various direc tions and pieces of skull-bone found at dirfbrent places, at a great distance from the scene of (he disaster." Tho Negro fireman who was killed was blown a distance of thirty or forty yards from the Engine, and died in a.faw moments, aftor the explosion. The' other Negro firoinan was badly scalded, and severely cut about the left knee. Tlie Engineer was a very worthy man, by the name of Smith. Ho had been in the employment of the Company from, the time tlie Road went In to opcra'ion, and was tho most trust-worthy and trusted F.ngineer in their service, lie was cau tions and pruiloni to a proverb, never drivhig an Engine beyond a speed which iho greatest pru dence justilifd, and never running tho slightost risk of injuring life or property.
