At the Meeting held in this City on Saturday last,

Road, even in its present dilapidated and wretched
condition. Tn the County of Granville alone, it
was established fcom authenticated data, that in the
exportation of Tobacco one single article from
the Depot at Henderson, some 12 or $15,000 per an

parison with the old plan of getting jt to market in
wagons, tc; and perhaps as much, or more, was
shown to be saved in the price paid for the importa

spretid before the people, in order that they may be
aroused to see the vast necessity for public improve
ments, to onr prosperity and advancement in Com
mercial importance and wealth.
We join our neighbor of the " Standard," in re
gard to his views about " working-out subscriptions,"
and quote from that paperthe following article from
the last "Salisbury Watchman," which furnishes
an idea of the best way to do the work :
"This is the way to do it. We have undoubt
ed authority for saying that if under the Charter of
the North Carolina Rail Road an arrangement can
be made by which subscribers for stock will be able
to work out their subscriptions in the manner sug
gested in the newspapers, the whole amount neces
sary to execute the work in Rowan. (22 miles) will
be taken by her citizens rtadily ! We know of two
gentlemen that have declared they will take 9 miles
of it, and two others and (have heard of) one lady,
who have determined on taking one or two miles each,
and several who say they will go into the business
to some extent. We will vouch for Rowan. Her
capitalists, we admit, appear to be timid; but her
working men are spirited and bold."
' As the "Standard" observes, of course nothing is
said in the Charter for the Central Rail Road, about
working out subscriptions ; but that will make no
difference. W hen the stock shall have been taken,
and the required amount paid in, it will be for the
State and the Stockholders combined to say in what
mode and upon what terms the work shall be done ;
and we can have no doubt, therefore, that subscrip
tions may, to a considerable extent, be worked out
and furthermore, that in all contracts to be let, the
Luistrstions of the earlier Presi- Stockholders will be, as they ought to be, preferred.
marly those of the Father of his j Say, for instance, an individual subscribes $3,000,
till recommend constitutional mens- and takes a contract for that amount. He does $3,
000 worth of work receives $2,000 in cash, and,
throwing in SI, 000 worth of labor, he gets an evi
dence of interest in the Road to the amount of $3,
000. There it is, in plain English ; and this is the
way, mainly, in which the Road is to be constructed.
A similar plan, we believe, was adopted in Georgia,
itnres." These interests cared and with the best results.
"It is of the first importance to the people of Ra
leigh and of Wake County, that they should arouse
themselves fully on this subject, and get ready to put
their shoulders to the wheel. All we ask of them is
to go tolhe figures, and let self-interest, if nothing
else, decide. But beyond this, what has not the
State done for this community ? It placed the seat
of government among us, and in doing so expended
nearly a million of dollars in our midst. As the re
sult of this, there is also disbursed here not less than
$40,000 per annum; and recently we have had loca
ted among us the Lunatic Asylum and the School
for the Deaf and Dumb. Is all this nothing? Does
it not bind us, even in common gratitude, to the peo
ple of the East and West now so nobly struggling
to unite their interests and their destines, and in do
ing so, to benefit us, as well as the State generally
to-nake an effort to forward and Consummate the
work? We hope our fellow-citizens of all parties
will ponder upon these things bring the proposed
measures to the test of utility and self-interest, (to
say nothing of State pride,) and then determine wise
ly for themselves and their posterity. This is, per
haps, the last opportunity we shall have, for year?,
for improving oar condition. The sands in the hour
glass are fast ebbing away ; and if Has occasion be
allowed to pass unimproved, a "long farewell" to
prosperity and enterprise in this community."

Tlie New Department
Among the last act! of the) late U. S. Senate, was
the passage of the House Bill, establishing, in ac
cordance With the recommendation of be late Sec
retary of the Treasury, Mr! Walkeb, a new De
partment in our Government, called " The Home
Depart ment." The Bill was reported from the Com
mittee on Ways and Means, of the House, and pro
vides for a Secretary, with the same salary and the
same power of appointment j and removal, as other
Heads of Departments, and forreferring to him the
superintendence of the Patent Office, of the 1st
Comptroller's Office, of the Marshals and Clerks of
the United States Courts, of the Indian Bureau,
Land Office, &c.
The " National Intelligencer" says; that the pas
sage of this Bill may be fairly ascribed to the weight
of character and just influence of the Chairman of
. the Committee of Ways and gleans, (Mr. Vinton,)
who has succeeded in carrying through a measure
i heretofore frequently presented inain to the con
sideration of both Houses by some of the wisest and
most experienced of our Statesmen, and, among them,
more than thirty. years ago, by President Madison.
There has been for a long time needed a subdi
vision of labor in the Executive offices, which would
secure promptness and responsibility in the despatch
of public business. The recent act will serve to
lighten the arduous labors of the other Secretaries.
The labors of the Treasury, particularly, in several
of its department?, as well as of the Secretary him
self, are almost beyond human endurance and, of
course, the busiucss of the Department has suffered
from delay and neglect.
Thus, by the passage of, this bill, Gen. Taylor
has a seventh Cabinet Minister ; and such is the
character of the duties he will have to perform, that
an intelligent writer has expressed the belief that
he will be the " Premier, in regard to influence and
importance, in this great Empire."

THE ADMINISTRATION
This week brines to a close the eventful Oylmpiad
of James K. Polk, nnd consigns the sceptre of his
power to the unhneal hand of his Whig successor,
Unlike his illustrious predecessor," M r. Van Buren,
Mr. Polk had the good sense ami discretion to waive
his claims to a re-election to the Presidency, thereby
averting a direct expression of public opinion on the
merits of his administration of the Government. He
did not wait to be elected by the voice of the people
from his high station, but gracefully yielded to a fate
which his sagacity told bun was inevitable.
Whatever of comfort or of consolation this circum
stance may afford him in his retirement, it cannot
blind him to the fact, that be ha bean TirtOAlly re
pudiated by the American people, and, tha sentence
of condemnation has been pronounced, in the most
emphat ic manner, on the policy of his administration.
The defeated candidate of the Democratic party, in
the late Presidential election, was thoroughly identi
fied with all the prominent measures of the present
Administration. It was to his bold and unshrinking'
advocacy of those measures, that he owed his nomin
ation ag Mr. Polk's successor, and it was chiefly upon
this ground that his partisans claimed for him the
support of the people.
In the rejection of Gen. Cass, Mr. Polk cannot but
read a signal rebuke of his own conduct and public
policy, and he retires from the service of his country,
without its parting benediction of "well done, thou
good and faitlifyil servant. '
Under the circumstances that attend his exit from
the public stage,-Mr. Polk will naturally turn from
the present to the1 future, and console himself with

A new Species erf Cotton.
Gen. G.D. Mitchell, an intelligent and experi
enced planter of Warren county, Miss.,- has recent
ly introduced the culture of a new kfnd or Cotton,
which he calls the Prolific Pomegranate, and which
is said to surpass any other species of the goasypium
family yet produced in this country. The stalk does
not attain a height usually more than four, or five
feet, but every portion of the plant is literally cov
ered with bolls, which are sustained in an upright
position by the strength and vigor of the stem and
branches. The chief peculiarity of this plant is that
the stem and branches have no joints as in other
kinds and although the bolls are so numerous, there
can be no inconvenience in picking. In fact, an ex
pert picker might at one grasp gather half a dozen
at a time. The staple is beautiful and far mor'atil
Ky tnan the nest retit gulf.
From one-third of an acre, measured, General
Mitchell gathered and weighed the past season
2142 lbs. of superior eotton. One hundred pounds
of the seed cotton yielded 32 lbs. lint, and by an
accurate test he found that sixty-five bolls made one
pound of lint.

Closing Scenes in Congsess.
The reports of the proceedings in both Houses of
Congress during the session of Saturday night, ex
hibit scenes of the most discreditable character
scenes of personal violence and outrage humiliating
to the country, and well calculated tobring its Na
tional Legislature into disrepute. We regret that
any member of Congress should have so far forgot
ten the dignity of his station and bis own self re
spect, as to have been guilty of the acts imputed to
some gentlemen. There can be no apology offered
for them ; for, whatever differences may have oc
cured, or however improper the language which may
have been used in the exeitement of debate, neither
the Senate nor the House were the proper places to
settle accounts between members by resort to per
sonal combats. We unequivocally condemn such
proceedings, and think that they will not be ap
proved by a single individual of respectability in the
Union.
the pleasing anticipation of a more favorable verdict
ou his public conduct, hereafter, than his countrymen
are at present willing to award ; but as long as the
true principles or the Constitution shall be reverea
as long ns the President of the United States shall
be rejianle'l as the servant of the people and not their
master; the popular decision of November last, on
the merits of the presont Administration, will stand
confirmed by the sober judgment of the American
people.
Mr. Poik may point, to his triumphant and suc
cessful career in the path of war and conquest. He
may point to the brilliant and unbroken series of
military triumphs, which marked the progress of our
armies from the Rio Grande to the capital of the
Aztecs, and which have shed an imperishable lustre
on the American arms. ; He may boast of the plenti
ful harvest of glory which the country has reaped,
nnd contemplate, with the feelings of gratified vanity,
the dazzling achievements which have illustrated the
annals of his own Administration ; but the American
people will not soon forget, that all these splendid
results had their origin in a gross and flagrant viola
tion of the Constitution ; and, if they are true to the
faith of the republican liberty which they profess,
they will continue to regard the preservation of that
instrument in its purity and integrity, as a consiuera
tiou of far higher moment than all the glory that was
ever won on the battle-field.
The policy of Mr. Polk has brought to the Union
an immense accession of territory, but, whether this
acquisition, with all its golden accompaniments, is
destined to prove a blessing or a cuts, timonly can
develop. If it has unfolded to our gaze visions of
national wealth and power, it has also stirred into
activity the fearful elements of domestic discord and
strife. But even supposing that the dangers which
it has invoked shall be happily dissipated, and the
benefits which it promises be realised, the end, how-
ever much it may redound to the wealth and gran
deur of our country, can never justify the means by

The Diplomatic Smuggler. The Commercial

" As to the accusation, we are at liberty to say that
it comes from an official source ; that it has been for
some time accessible to the authorities at Washing
ton, with the evidence to sustain it; and that we
have been ready from the first to speak out full on the

new Senator from Delaware:
" Mr. Wales is a man of excellent abilities, and
good judgment ; he is an unblemished Whig, nnd a
genuine patriot. It is unnecessary fcr us to refer to
his party labors for many years, for every body
knows that he was always ready and willing to give
his best efforts in aid of the Whig cause, to which he
is indissolubly attached. That his influence and
speeches have been effective of great good none can
deny, and there is many a man among us who owes
his illumination on political matters to the plain
truths presented to him by Mr. Wales. The Whigs
repose the fullest confidence in Mr. W. in his new
position, knowing that his future will accord with
his past action, and be marked with wisdom and pa
triotism ; and doubtless he will reflect great honor ou
the Sutehe represents"
-Gocd&ftftMTUMr A town clerk, in Massachu

At Milton, on Saturday the 17th ult, in the
51st year of his age, the Rev. N. H. Harding, D. D.
for many years minister of the Presbyterian congre
gation in that place. Dr. Harding was a native of
Brunswick, Maine. The early part of his life was
spent at sea, and before he was twenty-one years old,
he was promoted to the command of a vessel. While
at sea he obtained a hope of an interest in the Lord
Jesus Christ, and soon after connected himself with
the Presbyterian Church in Newbern, in this State.
He subsequently engaged in the mercantile business
in Raleigh, and during hi9 residence there his at
tention was turned to the Christian ministry. He
had, early in life, n fondness for books, and was well
acquainted with English literature. He spent some
time at the University of North Carolina, and after
going through a partial college course there, he went
to the Theological Seminary at Princeton, where he
spent the usual time, (three years) He entered on
the full work of the ministry about 1828. His piety
and zeal in the service of the Saviour were eminent
and his labors were greatly blessed in the Church. t
He was untiring in his efforts to do good, and seldom
let an opportunity escape of attemping to benefit
those with whom he had intercourse. He was
diligent student while health permitted, and all his
studies, as became a christian minister, were direc
ted to one point the honor of the Saviour. His
preaching was always in the highest degree instruc
live, and though he preached much, generally three
times on the Sabbath, he carefully studied all his
sermons, as was apparent to those who heard him.
Hrs great earnestness and boldness for what Ttete-
lieved to be the truth, sometimes led him to say things
which appeared harsh to those of opposite sentiments
but no one had a more benevolent heart, or regret
ted it more when he cave offence. His health had
been declining for three or four years, notwithstand
ing all that the best medical skill could do. His
desire to promote the interests of the Redeemer's
kingdom led him to continue his labors when he
should have rested ; even until the disease had reach
ed a point beyond remedy.
He was only a few weeks confined to the sick
chamber, during which not a murmur escaped his
lips. He talked little; his disease prevented him.
His end, as was to be expected, was peace.
