i.T-wsmeratenxed bylaw. Mr,
Press, that no act which the Administration does,
is allowed to pass without the most illiberal, cen.
sorious and reckless commentary. Mature re- j
flection, and a review of the political history of the
Country, convinces us, that these unprovoked and (
malignant assaults, so far from injuring the Ad- j
ministration, will aid it, by creating a wholesome t
excitement among the people on the subject of
political affairs, and by arousing their merited in
dignation against the authors of such foul vitu
peration and abuse. Such an excitement is al
ways to be desired ; for a patriotic people, prop
erly aroused, can never be deceived or subdued.
When was there ever greater excitement than du
ring the days of. the Administration of Thomas
Jeffkksoit? The opposition clamored, and vilh
fied then, as they do -now. Their orators, letter-
writers, presses, pimps and hirelings, reviled then,
as now, every act and appointment of the Nation
al Administration. But what did all these things
amount td 1 The efforts of such an Opposition
toinjure, only strengthened the Administration
and the Republican party ; and produced then, as
they are certainly destined to produce now, a
wholesome excitement and indignation among the
people. In the course of a snort time, in spite of
alt the virulence of the then Opposition party,
nearly all the Federal Senators were removed from
Congress, and their party became, in point of num
bers, a mere skeleton in the nation. The Repub
lican prfrty moved orf so harmoniously and suc
cessfully, that Mr. Jefferson was re-elected al
most unanimously there being cast against him,
if we recollect aright, the entire vote of only two
States. Such were the fruits of a venal and un
principled opposition in those days, and the pres
ent movements of the Loco Foco Press, we pre
dict, Will be equally effective in perpetuating the
continuance m power of the Whig party.
THE N. X- HERALD and THE CABIWxi IT.
Geo. Wi Brega, in a Card " to the Public"
which appears in " the Republic" at Washing
ton, says of" the Washington letters" which ap
peared in the N. Y. Herald, a few days since,
that he is the author, but that they are " a garbled
publication," "fuUof interpcAalioii? altered from
the originals in many most important particulars,
and were written by him as the confidential friend
and agent of that paper, but without any sugges
tion, privity, or knowledge of any member of
General Taylor's Cabinet. They were hastily
prepared, in the full confidence that there did not
exist on earth a man base enough to publish and
pervert them as Mr. Bennett has done. Mr. Bre-
ga adds : " I never had any authority from any
member of General Taylor's Cabinet to offer the
patronage of the Government, or any other con
sideration, to the Herald, for its support ; nor did
1 ever make such offer either orally or in writing,
in the few interviews I had with any member of
heart of the State, for the cheap and speady coa
veyance of produce and passengers, and a Peni
tentiary for the use of those who will not other
wise honestly serve themselves and the commu
nity give us but these, and give them to us soon,
and then all discontented spirits who are now dis
posed to seek an imaginary El Dorado elsewhere,
may find it here in reality. There are few places
upon this earth where wealth may be amassed
without assiduous, prudent industry, and teUh
this (we say,) a man may grow rich here as weli
as there no matter where that " there" may be.
To him who scorns the Old Nortn State, we
say " Go, poor thing, there is room enough in
the world for thee and me."
Rumored ! Changes in the Cabinet.
There have been rumors rife, for some time
past, of contemplated changes in the Cabinet
At first, they were regarded as mere gossip, and
without any. foundation in truth: and so far as
eare concerned we are not even howT orcDared
to attach any especial importance to them. Cer
tain it is, however, that these rumors have so fre
quently been alluded to in the public journals,
that credence, to some extent at all events, is
yielded to them in the public mind. It was first
stated that Mr. Meredith was about to retire from
the Treasury department, and would accept th
Mission to Russia. Now it is said Mr. Clayton
is about to resign his post as Secretary of State,
and that he will take the Russian mission. The
JVew-Ywk Tribune, of yesterday, contains a let
ter from Baltimore, to the following effect :
" I have just seen a letter from Washington,
which states, on the best authority, that Mr. Clay
ton will resign his post of Secretary of State on
the opening of Congress, and that Hon. Henry
Clay will fill the vacancy without doubt. This
is the reason of Mr. Clay's early visit to Wash
ingtonto consult in regard to the proposed
change. The above information is derived from
what I believe to be an authenic source. You
can use it as you think proper."
We observe also that a correspondent of the
Baltimore Clipper gives currency to the same
statement, as it alleges " on the best authority."

Frenxh War Vessel Offering to Assist
Cuba. A private letter from a citizen of Newark.
now in Havana, to a correspondent there, has the J
following intelligence:
Havana, Oct. 22, 1849.
A French war steamer arrived here yesterday,
and tendered her services to the Government to
assist in repelling any invasion that might be an
ticipated, for which .our captain general expressed
his obligations in the warmest terms; and the
newspapers of the day made a great fuss about it,
as they do about every thing in this country.
C There appears to be no doubt that the
two Frenchmen who committed the mur
ders in St. Louis are insane. They couid
have had no motive for an act so revolting.
GENERAL ITEMS.
Hogs. Up to the 13th ult., thirty-eight

quarantine. That, " starnger's fever," so
called, prevented the sale of at least half a

THE GARDEN OF THE EARTH.
Throughout "time, whereof the memory of man
runneth not to the contrary," (as they always
say,) there seems to have existed some difference
of opinion as to the; location of the " Garden of
the Earth" sometimes this place is so designa
ted, another that, and again a third region of coun
try is thus honored. It is reasonable and fair to
suppose that a considerable extent of country may
be so called. We propose to decide the matter,
by fixing upon North Carolina that appellation,
and call loudly upon all who are now removing
to other regions, to draw up their reins until we
can explain.
Within the borders of this State, we find every
variety of 6oil and climate known to the country
at large, and consequently also we have every va
riety of production in perfection. In the east,
we And luscious peaches in the west, delicious
apples, and all varieties of fruits flourish and ma
ture to perfection in the btate. In one portion,
the sweet potatoe arrives at perfection in anoth
er, the rarest Irish potatoes are grown. In the
north, tobacco of lh best in the south, the finest
cotton. In the cast, we have rice, and the pro
duction of the pine and cypress, with shoals of
Csh in every bay, sound and river in the west,
abundance of game, a salubrious climate, rich
mines beneath the surface, and above, literally
' a land flowing with milk and honey" for both
are abundant and excellent. Throughout our
borders we find abundance of excellent timber,
and here too, flourishes abundantly, a tree as ser
viceable to the artisan as the mahogany the wal
nut. And, taking the State generally, it is equal
to aiiy other as a grain growing country ; a mar
ket, and facilities to market, are only wanting to
show it, for there is inert energy and enterprise
,'enough left among us. The position of the State,
as viewed upon the map, is of itself most favora
ble : near mid-way in the temperate zone, with
an) extended line of sea-coast, numerous lengthy
titers, through a broad belt of beautiful alluvial
and gently undulating' country, and a mountain
ous region to the west, affording altogether a
gteater variety than perhaps any other State can
boast of.
Much ridicule has heretofore been attached to
North Carolina, and many who have removed
from amongst us, and now live in the enjoyment
of fewer comforts, are fain to deny their nativity,
though secretly wishing themselves back the while.
The State is, however, destined to " come out"
her public men attract attention abroad, and her
rich resources are now more and more universal-
gt Philadelphia has 350,000 inhabitants
of which only 2,000 families have a com
petency to live irpon ; 20,000 dependant up
on mechanical and professional branches,
and the rest are divided into laborers, beg
gars, and others following promiscuous em
ployments for a living.
$3 The Seminole chiefs have had a long
talk with General Twiggs in Florida. They
want nO war with us, and have given up the
murderers. They are determined not to re
move west even at the sacrifice of their own
lives. A little coaxing, a little douceur, and
a little whiskey will change their opinion.
The Coming Conflict. The European
paper speak now of "the awful conflict of
principles which is at hand." It is a hard
question to answer, whether the revolution
in Europe is dead, or whether there is only
a pause, after which it will break out again
more terribly than ever. Despotism has tri
umphed, and its triumph has committed the
most savage atrocities; but principles do not
die so easily. When a whole people are
once aroused, they can only be quieted af
terwards by something as crushing as exter
mination. We shall be mistaken if the
bloody perfidies of Austria do not bring about
frightful retributions.

A Horrible Crime. In our last we briefly
recorded the sudden death of Mr. Alexander C.
Simpson, well and favorably known in this place
and the surrounding country as the proprietor of
one of the Carnage-making Jjstabushments ol this
nlace. We are crieved and shocked to be compell
ed now to add, that he died from the effects of
arsenic, administered to him, as the Jury of In
ouest believe, by the hands of his own wife. We
wish wecouldbesparedtheduty of recordingso hor
rible a crime, and ot wounding the feelings of high
ly resDectable connections on both sides. But the
Press should know no distinction in such cases.
We do not propose to enter into any detailed
statement of the horrible circumstances. We
leave that for the proper tribunal, and ;the proper
time ; but will merely state, brtelly, that in con
sequence of suspicious circumstances, a post mor
tem examination was made oy several ot our rny
sicians, assisted by a distinguished chemist, and
that the Dresence of arsenic in the stomach was
palpably established. After which, a number of
witnesses were examined, and the Inquest came
to the belief that the poison was administered as
above stated. A bench warrant was issued , by
Judge Dick, but the officers have not yet succeeded
in arroetinrr Tro Simnton Wp lpnrn that mf3R-
uses havetieen taken to obtain the offer of the cus
tomary reward of $200 by the Governor of theState
for her apprehension. v
-The Grand Jury of the Superior Court, then in
session, inquired into the matter, and lound a bi.
against Airs. Simpson for the murder.

TO correct an erroneous impression which has
been circulated abroad much to the disparagement
of my abilities, to say nothing of the injury my
business has sustained by reports which have been
slanderously put in circulation by some prejudiced
people, that 1 was not capable ot cutting a Coat, 1
have come to the conclusion to notice it. Notwith
standing such reports, and for the information of the
public, after the lapse of 8 or 9 years in which 1
have been engaged in tne ousinessin Kaieign, t con
sitter myself to have been as fortunate in fitting in
the Coat line, as any similar Establishment North
or South ; from the fact, that in that space of time, I
have not had three Coats returned. Should thi
meet the eye of any who have been under the im
pression mentioned above, they may rest assured
when disposed to give me a trial, that, if I do not fit
them, and with as little trouble, as well as can be
done in any other House in tne btate, tneu l win
say no more, and ask no further patronage.

For about twenty years I had been MDenng from Dytpej-

obtain permanent relief from any eourac- of atedical treatsaeat

frequent ezposnra to the weather, in the discharge of my pas- :
toral duties, I became subject to a severe Chrooie Kheama

did my Dyspepsia and Rheumatic affection thus evincing;
that these disorders were connected with each other throng n -th
medium of the Nervous By item. In the whole harmaco -poeia
there-seemed to be no remedial agent which eoold'
reach and recuperate my Nervous System ; every thing that I
had tried for this purpose had completely failed. At last I
