it sticks to its shell, or barely pokes its nose
out, after taking care first to kick up a aast

from casual passers by. But it is not on
Distribution alone that the Standard is mum.
It has not said anything concerning the va

makes between "Deposit" and Distribution.
We call attention to 'this fact, and, in ad

"THE. 1IEAVEX BORNV
In 18(1 the government of the United
Lates was deprivea of. the services of Gen.
Harmon, by bb death in a month after his
inanguration as President, and but a short
time thereafter, the wife of bis sncoeasor,
Join Tyler, was borne a corps fron the
Prenilntial mansion. Bat a little while
after this, the appalling and death-dealing
explooa tf "the Peace Maker," on bord

in gloom. These ; melancholy occurrences

A PREOOCS CONFESSION, TRULY.
The annxed extract from a letter recent
ly writ'en by Gov. Wise, exhibits him to
the world in an asoect even more contempti
ble and unenviable than be has yet presented
to the gate of tfe public. That he has
talked and acted like a foul-inouthei and
dirty fish woman, is bid enough, when wo
reflect on the station be occupies, but that
he should publish bis own shame to tbe world,
and convict himself of falsehood and imposi
tion, of a eool and deliberately planned cheat
upon a confiding' people,' fills every honest
heart with inexpressible loathing and eon
tempt for tbe debased creature. Read and
see :
"Now, tbe act of 1836 was before and the
act of 1841 after, the Louisa spee:h-: my
own real opinions were given in speeshes and
votes on these? - acts, in ' my representative
place ; and the Louisa speech was made at
the hustings in an excited political canvas-,
when, as the speech shows to every candid
ruind who will read it, that the intent was
not to put forth my own opinions on meas
ures of policy and constitutional questions,
so much as to contrast and compart, the opin
ions of .Mr Clay, vith those of Mr. Van
Btren, at a time vhen it was tktntgKl they
would be the competing candidates for the
Presidency. Once again, I repeat, that air
opinions on leading measures, a a public
man, are not to be found in that speech."
Who, in future, will believe one word
spoken or written by this -degraded man ?
Ridgeway declared biiu to be mad long ago,
and in all conscience and charity, we hope
he is right, for alienation of miad would re
lieve bins from the moral responsibility, for
a wholesale cheat and swindle, which would
rest on a san man, and sink him to perdi- I
tion la this and the other world. . I

WRATH RISING STILL HIGHER.
' The Editors of the Favetteville Observer.
instead of punishing us, are simply making
themselves very ridiottlous by stopping their
exchange with ta, because we published, as
an advertisement, a letter which, without
being in the slightest decree offensive, to
public taste or decency, gave 'them a very
I genteel excoriation. We have hid our mis-
fortunes in life, as all men have had, more
I or less, and we think that we can survive
I the oce, terrible as it is, of being "out" by
I the PayetUvilfe Observe! ".At "any rate,
we w;u try nd hold up. Before, however.
I we bid it aa affectionate farewell, we have a
few pUin words to sav to i. First : we de
s-re to know "on what meat it feeds that it
hitt-, grown M great," as to set itself upas
arbiter and expounder of editorial cour-
tesy. Soondly : we tell the Observer that
I it i,k-i, -whmn it r,r,M;.v.-
a libel for pay. Radwiy's letter was read
by some of the firs lawyers of this Stato
men at Iaat as learned in the law as the
Observer and read for the express purpose
of seeing if there was any foundation for tbe
alarming threat that the Observer would in
stitute prosecution for libel against any edi
tor who should publish it or any similar mat
ter, and to a man, they said, that not only
there was no ground for tbe Observer to
stand upon in the threatened prosecution,
but that the letter was an extremely well
written one.
One gentleman, who has two students ia
his offioe, told us that he was eo much pleased
with Radways letter as a composition, that
he read it to the young gentlmen studying
under him. Bnt. 11 the rentlmpn. fcflinir
nothing liko so wdl versed in law or eood
minners as the Observer, are mistaken, and
tbe Observer is riht ! ! The Observer's
repeatel threat of a prosecution passes us
by as the idle wind. If we have published
libslous matter by inserting Rad way's letter,
tbe thin? can be easily tested. The Observ
er can bring its aotion, and we shall be ready
g m )ur ru, ,m. uir
server.
jjefore we conclude thU article, we have
. .
a word to say to the publio, to prevent
nj misconstruction of our conduct in this
r . .... ,. .
.M mww . X. V UBI hUl lur U'Jil (XI U Ull 19 ililCUli
ed for the FayeiteviUe Observer, as that jour
nal, by its blusterings and threats, has placed
itself beyond th pale of any explanation
from us. We have never, to this day, seen
tbe Observer's denial of Rad way's allegations,
and the 'first knowledge we had of such a
denial, was after Rad way's letter was pub
lished. This knowledge wo received from
the article in the Observer taking as to task
for publishing R.'s letter, and at the same
tiro? threatening us with a prosecution. . We
we in Petersburg when the Observer's de
nial of the allegations of Rad way came out,
and, to this minute, we have never seen the
paper containing it. Had the Observer been
content to approach us with the "courtesy'
ofwhiohit boasts so muoh, and to enquire
civillv of us. if we were aware tbat -it bad
denied Radway's sUtcments, it would hive
escaped the ridiculous position in wbioh it
now stands, and savsd as tbe trouble of
writing this article.
The insinuation, made under the form of a
question, that we were paid" for saying
what we did in our last issue as to the value
of Radway's Remedy, is simply untrue, and
"libellously" so. The Edifr of the Oser. '
rer, however, needn't fear any action for a
liel. We want nothing that he posses es, '
nd least of all his temper and manners, and
si to prosecuting him, we haven't tbe 1 eart
to do it, when he is still gioaniog tinder
Ra-iway's excoriation. And bow ge tlemen, j
of the Observer,, we consider ourself, kilt,
dead and buried, by the awful punishment
you nave innictea on us.
OH for" an issue, "an uncommon want!"
Halfiffh Standard,
You have an "issue" tendered you, neigh
bor, but you dodge it with "uncommon"
agility. You look upn tbe land "issue,"
tb .great, if no onJ "issue," with "un
common" dread. You are the recognized
organ of the domfcant party in the State, and
yet you present yourself to tbe public in the
"uncommon" aspect of evading an "issue"
on which you should be thoroughly posted.
; You really must excuse us for telling you
that you don't, "want an issue," and that
r you only "want" to dodge an "issue" which
we "want" to make you face.

THE ALEXANDRIA (VA ) CONGRESSION
AL DISTRICT. :.r ,
Extra Billy SmithiS more, genteelly jand
euphoniously called "Surplus William," is
having great troubles ia his late Congression
al District, and few are found to sympathize
with him in bis day of adversity. Extra, or
."Surplus," has utterly lost the confidence of
me petier portion or nis own pariyunwu
acquiring in the slightest degree, that pf any
other. He balanced on one leg so long, be
tween the Democracy and the Americans,
that he exhausted L his' strength, and fell
sprawling on bis back, never to rise again.
- Col. John Willis, of Orange, has been
brought out by the "Convention Democrats"
(Extra defied a Convention, and beat its can
didate two years ago,) of the D is trio t, as a
candidate, and will stand in that position to
concentrate the votes of the anti-Smith De
mocracy. Col. Willis, in a letter to tbe
Richmond Examiner, says : . "For myself,
I sincerely believe the purity of the party
will be best secured, and its future prospects
best protected, by the defeat of Mr. Smith "
Now, as Col. Willis says, in another portion
of his letter.that un der existing ciroumstanoes,
the portion of the Democraoy. nominating
him, has not strength sufficient to eleot him,
we are warranted m concluding that he
thinks the election of Mr. Snowden, the Whig
and American Candida e, would be the best
thing that could happen ; an opinion so very
judicious, that we, with many others, most
cordially conour in it. We may, therefore,
expect to see the gsllant Knight of Snowden
oome out of the battle with his banner wav
ing in triumph. "So mote it be."
DELEGATE FOR PETERSBURG.
The last "Intelligenoer" contains a card
numerously and most respectably signed, and
addreesed to John Thompson Robertson,
Esq., requesting him to become a candidate
for the House of Delegates, j To this card
Mr. R. replied in a well written letter in
which he consents to become t candidate.
Mr. Robertson was for more than six years
our associate in the editorial department of
the Petersburg Intelligencer. He is a gen
tleman of intelligence and information, and
is as thoroughly honest aa the day 's long.
As he has consented to run, we sincerely
hope he may be elected. If he goes ta the
Legislature we shall consider that we are
vicariously living over our own legislative
career. o ".nr. jrugstyies," consider tnit
we are on the stump for you. But, dear
sir, you must take the stump for yourself.
You xust rouse up West ward,fulminate pver

or Peter Vadent or Sam : Marks, but just
"go it while you 're young." !
ALLEGHANY WATER.
We are indebted to our kind friend, Dr.
N. F. Rives, of Petersburg, for a demijohn
of that elixir, vitas, Alleghany . Water. A
supply of this water is kept constantly on
band at Dr, R.'s Drag Establishment, and
will be sent anywhere to order. For dys-
pepsia, we believe that Alleghany Tater is a
sovereign remedy. . It cured us of that most
tormen ing of diseases, and we have seen its
beneficial effects upon many others. In
fet, we have never knovn it to fail, when
properly tried. It wiTl, of course, have a
readier effect when drank at. the Spring, and
aided by the bracing mountain olimate, but
when tken at a distance from thj fountain,
-lta uae persevered in, and a proper diet
be observed, its good effects, in a reasonable
time will be annarent. W knew a irreat
maDV to use it in Petersburg and Richmond.
ia.t Bummer, and without an exception, all
obtained relief from it. .j
s w!e shrewdly suspect that our neighbor
0f tbe Standard received a dyspeptic inciina-
tion from the "dinner," which we bad the
misfortune to miss, we'll send him a couple
of bottles of Alleghany to put his digestion
light, and then perhaps he'll discuss the
Land Question with us. j
OF" The Rev. Mr. Christian, Principal of
the Methodist Female Seminary in this city,
has received and accepted the appointment
of-President of the Petersburg Collegiate
Institute. We congratulate the officers and
all interested in tbat Sohool on the happy 8e
leetion they have made ; but while Mr. Chris
tian's acceptance may be a matter of con
gratulation with them, his removal from this
city, will create a vacanoy which it will be
hard indeed to fill, for he is a man of' most
exemplary piety, and beloved by all who know
him. ' i j
