Dr. W,n., B. Outlaw Son of Dr. J. B. Out law, lived with his father in 1848 and '49. D ivid Outlaw was frequently at his father's ; don't know where he considered his home ,'; would fitay'with his father 3 or 4 weeks at a time. Is acquainted with his hand-writing, and has seen him write. Paper writing shown him is his hand ; has carefully examined every part of it ; first saw it at his father's when Mr. Spivey was present ; did not see it when first found ; was in the room when the trunk was brought in, but did not stay to see it opened; his father, Spi vey and Collins were present ; don't know where Evans was. Ilad seen the trunk before a great many times. Deceased was in the habit of giving it to his mother to keep ; had carried it to her himself ; she put it 'n a bureau which had a lock and key. De ceased reached bis father's house Thursday or Friday ; thinks it was Friday ; complained of pain in shoulder and breast ; took his bed on Sunday, and got worse gradually all the time. Heard him say he had made a number of wills, but had now fixed his business as he wanted it ; he did not say to whom he had given his pro perty. Set up with him the night he died, and part of the night before ; his father was with him a great deal. A writing on the bottom of the red trunk was shown witness; thinks it is the writing of deceased. , The Counsel for the plaintiff here rested the case for the present. 1 The defendants' witnesses wore then called ana sworn, to the number of about 40. i And the Court adjourned until to-morrow at 10 o'clock. Wednesday, June 22, When theCourt opened, Mr. Moore, of coun sel for the plaintiff, read to the Court and Jury, the paper-wrftTng'purporting to be the last Will of David Outlaw, dee'd, dated Dec. 20, 1848. Gov. Graiiav then opened the case for the Caveators ; after which he called the first wit ness. - Alexander J. Lawrence Keeps the City Hotel in Raleigh ; ascertains, by his register of names, that David Outlaw arrived at his house the 19th Dec, 1318, and left 20th. He was last here the 12th March, ls49. Warren Nobles Knew D. Outlaw ; met him 20th Dec, 18-18, one half mile this side of Clay tun Lee's, between 11 and 12 o'clock in the forenoon. Sleylien Mnore Resides in IlilUboru' ; known D. Outlaw 15 veaVs. In summer' of '47, he ask ed the witness to write his will, and gave him a written memorandum from which to write it. Witness did so, and carried it to his room in the Hotel, where it was signed, witness and James Webb being witnesses. Deceased enjoined the utmost secresy as tj the disposition he had made of his property. In 1S4S, Oatlaw came to him, and wanted to make a codicil ; but was advised by witness to make a new will. He gave wit ness a memorandum, and requested him to write it. The disposition of the property was changed in certain respects, which the witness I stated, but the bulk of his property was left to George Hurdle, as in the former will, and to Miss K. Outlaw was left $2000 instead of 100Q as before. Provision was made in both fr free- ng his negroes. George and Ben Hurdle were executors in the first will ; George alone in the second, &c. Deceased spoke of Dr. Outlaw in making this will, and said he would probably I. a l!nnnmiinlAil - Ku I lull, iT h t a fTPrtllf'. ftf:l ftf V. lull . , ..." " " ' "0 - l- h v' " -- I . , . ,. . . . .

Deceased delivered it to witness to keep in his iron safe. When he left HilUboro he nailed for this will, which the witness delivered, and he took it with him. The witness never made known the contents of the paper until after his death. . Cross examined Deceased always spoke with great affection for Dr. Outlaw and his family ; said his wife was the finest woman he ever saw, and wim88 never heard him speak of any one else in so high terms. Never heard him speak disparagingly of the Doctor excent in regard to roonej matters ; but he would sometimes say bard things of his best friends. He was reserv ed in regard to his business matters, but talka tive bot every thing else. " Direct "resumed 'Deceaei also spoke very kindly bnf every occasion of George Hurdle frequently bought goods at store of witness to make presents to bis family,. Our. Grah ak here read a letter from deceased to George Hurdle, showing, great affection to bis family. '. ' "'" V, - -' rP: Jotowuy Deceased frequently stopped at bis house. ' Last time witness saw him was 12th March, '49 ; he came there Fridajkthe 9th. On Monday, be asked witness if he wanted some money be had borrowed from ' bira--eaid be wanted money to pay a relation down the coun try for a negro he WWay;l)Mk.frtWif of witness then said, Mr. Outlaw, what are you going to do with your property? 0 wid he, : : .. -: - - - i ra h-; -i-r- I've got a will in my trunk written by Steplien Moore, of Hillsboro' ; and if anything happens to me, George Hurdle knows what to do with it ; and he will find enough to satisfy him - for all his trouble. He also said Dr. Outlaw had tried, and got others to try, to get $6,000 from him to settle his son in the West ; he seemed" much affected and shed tears; and said he was afraid his life would be taken for what little he had. He usually talked a good deal; but sel-" dom about his property. Cross examined' Witness' wife saidl to him, I thought you were going to give Dr. O jour pro perty j she thought they were brothers. De ceased never spoke disrespectfully, but always in high terms, of Dr O. ; the only fault he found with him Wat his extravagance. The Dr. had written him to go down on particular business ; I 30 by the Dr's; but he said he should go and see what the business was. Witness; remem bers when the Dr. returned from the West ; de ceased was very glad he had come back. Direct Deceased went to his trunk and took out what seemed to be' a good pile of money ; gave witness a $0 bill to changes. Salomon (Viggins At Ilolloway's onj Sunday, March 11, had a conversation with David Out law ; heard him speak of Dr. O's, extravagance ; did'nt kqow the value of money ; had spent two fortunes, one of his own, and one of his-wife's ; what he had would not last him 4 yeitrs; and before some men should have his money, he would consume it behind that fire. Cros examined He seemed very uneasy and shed tears. Mr. Bcsbee here read the deposition! of Clay ton Lee. - Wm. Jeffreys Saw David Outlaw a short time before he died, at his house, in Jan. or Feb. 1849 ; wras on his way down the country, and appeared sick ; asked if witness would take charge of ar trunk till hie return ; did! so ; de ceased said it was likely he might die, or never return ; and if so, you deliver that trunk to Ben Hurdle ; he is a perfect gentlemen, and has done business for me, and he will know what to do with it. Ho was gone some time; but re turned and received his trunk. Spoke frequent ly of George and Ben Hurdle as perfect gentle men and hard working men, who would take care of their property. Always spoke of Dr. O. as a perfect gentleman ; but he had had a great deal of money and made way with it ; in a word, ho did'nt know what money was made for. When the Doctor was in the West, deceased was anxious to get him back, and took sorpe steps for that purpose. Ctoss examined Said on one occasion, there was a young lady he had engaged to marry, but his up country friends had broken up the match ; they had put out false reports concerning him, and he was going down the country after pa pers. &c I Wm. Slukes testified that David Oatlaw passed his house the Friday before his death on his way to Dr. Outlaw's. AFTERNOON. Thomas nowa ton testified to the execution of the will, and to the terms in which deceased spoke of Pr. Outlaw and the Hurdles, agreeing with ail the witnesses. Wu'lmrl Stalling Lives in Gates; knew David Outlaw from boyhood ; had corresponded with him and knew his hand writing.; Paper shown does not believe was written by him. C. Faucctl Knew David Outlaw since 1824 or '26 ; knows his hand writing. Thinks the paper shown is not his writing;; never would have taken it for his. Deceased! spoke' of George and Ben Hurdle affectionately and friendly, as his nearest relations. Cross examined Also spoke of Dr. O. in high terms as a physician ; never heard him express any affection for him; he spoke of him as a prodigal and money waster, but had pride in him as an Outlaw. Spoke of Mrs. O. as a very amiable lady. When told to examine the pa per, witness said it all had some resemblance to his hand writing, such as a counterfeit has to a genuine note ; but it does not have the genuine honest blush ; it looks studied and heavy, as with the slow dragging of the pen, and not as if it was done naturally off-hand. Joseph Allison Known David Outlaw 20 or 25 years, knows his hand writing, has seen him write, and received some letters; from him ; thinks paper shown is not his hand-writing ; , , , . -, he always went like a top in J r writing ; he was brisk and quick. Gave the usual testimony as to deceased's regard for the Hurdles and! D. O. Henry BayleyTh examination of this witness was King, searching and minute. Al lison Leeaild Charles Lntimer were aJso; exam ined this afternoon ; and Jcoot Ijadgeii read a ! letter from Dr. Outlaw to Henry Bagley, com municating the death of David Outlaw, &c. The Court adjourned iintill TharaJay, 10 o'clock. j j A large number of Witnesses were examin ed on Thursday, but we defer theirtastSmony, necessarily, until our next. The evidence in the case will hardly closo before: Saturday night. ' 'f WEST POINT. The annual Examination of the Cadets at the Military Atfademy, West Point, took; place last week. The number of those of the First Class, who received" Diplomas, was fifty two. j The-diplomas were formally delivered to the graduates on- Friday evening last, in the Chap dl, with a good deal of ceremony, in the; pres ence of the Board of Visitors. llon. i Kenktb Rayner, of this State, then delivered an address to the Cadets, fiill pf encouragement and, good practical advice, : which was. listened to with; marked attention.

Saunders addressed the Agricultural Society of this county, at the Court House in this City, on Monday afternoon last, with his usual ability, upon the subject of the approach ting State Fair. We learn that the- best feel ing prevailed in the meeting, and that the most sanguine assurances were given, that the sum necessary to secure the permanent location of the Fairs at Raleigh will be easily and speedily raised. We do not know that it is worth while to publish, the somewhat lengthy proceedings of the State Agricultural Society at its last meet ing, that meeting having been held upwards of a month since, and the material portion of its deliberations having in the meantime trans pired. We publish, however,, the following appointments by the resjilepj?: fctw-. iu connection wmi tne rair, iwnicn is w ne holden op the 18th of October,) t:x: L W.

Bur gwin, Northampton, W. II. Jones, Wake. E. P. Guion, Wake, E. A. Crudup, Franklin, Thos. II. Wright, New Hanover, John Hutchins, Wake. We are glad to see the interest that is mani fested, in some portions of the State, in the success of the great experiment thatis to be tried in October. Wo look upon it as unques tionably one of the most important movements that has ever been made for the benefit f the State and the promotion of its diversified indus- trial pursuits, and, as such, it challenges the I liveliest approbation and encouragement at the hands of all our people. It ia certainly time that the Agricultural community in this State appreciated more fully their numerical strength and their moral power, and this can only be ef fected, or can be best effected, by a concen trated and well-directed public opinion. In the former absence of any organization to create and give expression and direction to such opin ion, comparatively nothing has been done for the Agricultural interest in our, midst. And yet is it the basis and support of 11 othftr inter ests. Its surplus products spread the sails of Commerce and start, the shuttle of the manu facturer it feeds all and clothes air-; liko the heart, it gives vitality, life and motion to the whole body politic. We appeal, then, to the Farmers, Manufacturers, ic, of the State to go to ucork aid interest themselves fully in render ing certain the success of the North Carolina State Fair ! DOINGS OP THE "FAITHFUL.',' A meeting of tho "unterrified" of Wake was held in this City, on Monday last, for thi pur pose of appointing Delegates to a Convention, proposed to bo holden on the 30th inst., to nom inate a Candidate for Congress,, "as the surest means of reconciling conflicting aspirations and opinions." It is pretty generally believed that this Convention project bas been set a foot by a few of the self-constituted party leaders, in nnd about Raleigh, who have organized themselves into a Clique, for the purpose of so ordering the movements of the faithful'' as to secure their own; ends. It is even rumored with what truth, we do not venture to say, that our quiet neighbor of tho " Standard" may bo selected as the fortunate individual, through whom " conflicting aspirations and opinions" arc to be reconciled !" Whether Mr. Vena ble or Sir. Lewis can be " reconciled" to such an arrangement, we are not informed. What is this world coming to ! Among the resolutions adopted at this convo cation of the " Democracy," we notice one that reads thus : llefolved, That we re-affirm most heartily our J devotion to the platform adopted by tho last Baltimore Convention, on which General Pierce was elected; ; that we cordially approve his ad ministration of public affairs, and that we will sustain him to the utmost of our ability, in his efforts to promote the prosperity and hap piness of the people of the whole country. " Cordially approve" the appointment of Free-Soilers and .Secessionists to office, to the entire exclusion of tho Union Democracy, do they And this while good men of the party, everywhere! else throughout the country, are condemning and deprcciting it ! It is a lamen table spectacle, a sad ' exhibition of party cowardice, to say nothing worse, to see an Administration thus endorsed, by a meeting of Southern " Democracy," in the preference and j partiality which it has shown to Free-Soilers j and Factionists, While the conservative portion of the party at the North, who have had to fight the battles of the, Union against this horde of traitors and fanatios, are pouring out upon its head their just and proper indignation 1 If they who opposed Gen. Scott so bitterly, be cause, if elected, " he would appoint Free Soil- era tooffice,"cangulpdown the above Resolution, without being troubled with the night-mare of conscience, they possess power of digestion which an ostrich might envy I . "THE NEW ARRANGEMENT."

A correspondent of the Knickerbocker thus writes: ' Though helpless and dependent, a little child has enough-brightness in his eyes and gayety in his prattle to fill a household with joy. When he awakes first at the "peep of day" and imprints kisses on his parents lips, .their fra grance is sweeter than that of the morn. The music of his voice is like the song of birds at the approach of light; his smiles more sunny than the first entrance of sunbeams into the roon. His little arm chair, on high stilts, is scrupulously placed when the fast is broken, and he is no Unimportant member at the family board. During the day, how pleasant the pat tering of his feet on the stair case, his voico in the court yard, his frequent bursting into the room; with some new tale ! At night he kneels down whitely clad, as before some ho ly altar, at his mother's kfiees, and his little Erayers go 'straight to heaven from a child's eart. Outof the mouth of babes and sucklings, x iiou nast ohni . Not uafre- when he sleeps, are. the mother's pilgrima ges to his couch, while under his long lash es and sealed up lids, the spirit of a cherub seems to dwell. But O. if God, in his wise prov idence , should change that repose into the sleep of death, and the white flowers are placed upon his breast, in his little clasped hands, the tears which sparkle! on his brow are bright, but per haps the bitterest ever shed. Doar little C, is dead ! I ivmember the last time I saw him was on a beautiful evening in autumn. We all sat in the summer house. The moon arose, and the stars twinkbd, and were reflected in the waves which beat below the cliffs. The child looked up to the brightest star of all, and said: "Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high. Like a diamond in the sky !" His seemed like a prophetic voico. But a few moons have waned, and little C. is now a star in heaven. Before he died, he sang the very strains which had delighted him and he now sleeps in peace near the river's brink, where in spring-time the flowers shall bloom a bove him which he so much loved, and where they will not cease to be watered by a parent's tearu. How many a bereaved heart will be touched by this ! ! DISCUSSION AT SHELBY. The candidates for Congress in this District met at Shelby as we learn, on Tuesday of last week, and addiressed the people of Cleaveland county on the points at issue between the two parties botlii made good speeches, but Mr. Os- borne had the good fortune there, as he has had everywhere, to inspire his friends with the high- est hopes of his success.

I The Dolice in Paris have nut the shoDkeeucrs : unon their cuard azainst bein? victimized bv ' the nemotratinii of tlm 'Vive mtvmv-chann-e'" trick. This is performed as follows: A well dressed man (things have 'come to such a pass that it is always safe te be suspicious of well dressed men) purchases some insignificant arti cle, and stands waiting. In a few minutes; with an air of vexation, h asks if they are not go ing to give him his change. "You have not paid, I think, Sir." "Why, yes, I did; I gave you a five franc piece, with a scratch on one side of it." The till is searched, and the coin was taken a few moments before from one of the gang, who had made some trival acquisition on purpose to get into the drawer. An adroit thief has been known to make tho sum of fifty frnncs a day in this way, by the perpetration of the rendcz raoi. Postage ExvtLrEs and Stamps. In answer to repeated inquiries in regard to the time when tho post office will be ready to sell envelopes under the law, with postage stamps attached, we are authorised to say that tb envelopes are all ready for delivery, and have been inspected and approved by a duly appointed agent of the Postmaster General. We cannot say when they will be forwarded to the different post offices for sale, nor can we assign the reason for delay. If we are permit ted, however, tu indulge in a conjecture upon this subject, we should guess that the Postmas ter General intends to get through with the re movals in his Department before he issues the new stamps and takes the necessary security from incumbents.
