Her climate is given by observations made at Fort JohnBton. Mean temperature in Winter, 50: 60; Spring, .01: 46; Summer, 80: 89; Autumn, 67: 46 year, 65 : 68.

We have never been vis ited by the cholera, and we believe that the pine regions of the South and Europe have always been exempt. The value of real estate and personal property in North Carolina exclusive of slave property, in I860 is given as 359,000, 000, increasing from 1850 in the ratio of over 58 per cent., while the whole vnluc in 18G0 is given : in the ground.

" I now leave them to you. i " I canft," sighed the fox ; " my leg pains me too much. You may now take them." "Very: well," said the goat, and ran to ward the bag. But, O dear ! there was neither bag nor carrots ; for during their quarrel a peasant had passed by and picked up both. 'Alas !"' cried the goat, " what fools we are !

North Carolina had 889 miles of Railroad, representing seventeen millions of capital. It is true that considerable of the capital represented in the census of sl860, is scat tered by the casualties pf war and five years of exhaustion, but much of it is left. If the change in our system of labor is a loss to the persons owning it, the State is no poorer, for the labor remains. We have fertile soil, fine climate, every thing, n fact, to make a great and wealthy commonweajth. The same industry and energy awakened by the necessities of the last two years, ex pended fcvery year, will soon make the good old North State to " blossom like the rose." If we, by any means, can add one spear of geass to her productions, or induce one imi - grant to add to her prosperity, we will do it ' We expect to give further information in the future upon these topics. BY EDNA DEAN FItOCTOR. One approaching Jerusalem at twilight, from the iDamascus side, might well exclaim with the Psalmist, "Beautiful for situation, joy of the whole earth, is Mount Zion, on the sides of the North, the City of the Great King." The gray, battlemented walls look massive and venerable in the distance ; con vent and itower and minaret, the cross and crescent sinning high, lift themselves above i the flat roffs of the1 streets; and so won- drously clear is the air that distance is lost, and the great dome of the Mosque of Omar appears to rest upon the purple ridge of the mountains of Moab ; nay. if you are high enough to catch a glimpse of the Dead Sea at their base, it will seem as though you might almost cast a stone from your hand into its moveless waters. In the heart Of a bare and comparatively barren country, without any of the bustle and importance of a seaport town, or the ac tjivity and verdant beauty of one in the midst of a fertile and flourishing region, Je eusaleni Is yet the most attractive city on earth' For here God, from whom we came and to whom we go, was unveiled, and walked a man among men ; robed himself in such loose garments as worn by that group yonder; talked with his disciples in these groves ; ate the fruit of the fig trees ; healed the lepers crouching, as do those to-day, un ler the ij city wall ; taught daily in these streets the immortal truths of love to our Father above and our brothers below ; car ried himself so tenderly that the outcabt and broken-hearted clung to him for help and comfort ;: endured bitterest agony under the lives of the Garden of Gethsemane, in this quiet valley beneath the Mount Zion ; suf fered death which awaits us all ; was buried in one of the sepulchres ; and, rising again, to human eyes still in human form, from the It is further provided, that under no cir cumstances shall the Legislature pass any law suspending tho privilege of the writ of ha beas corpus. Tho Convention fully recognizing the de struction of slavery, has inserted in the declaration of rights the following arti cle : "Slavery shall not be re-established in this State, but, having been abolished under the policy and authority of the United States, compensation, in consideration thereof, is due from the United States." In accordance with this view it is provi ded that the Legislature "shall take such steps as may be deemed necessary to urge upon the United States such aid in compen sation for emancipation in this State as was pledged by the joint resolution passed by the Congress of the United States, April 10, 18G2, and shall pass such laws as may be necessary for the distribution of such aid as may be received from the United States for that purpose." The only material changes in the Execu tive Department are the centering of the veto power on the Governor, and the aboli tion of the office of Lieutenant-Governor. The Legislative article restricts the regu lar sessions of the Legislature to 90 days, and the extra sessions to 30 days. The dis ability of ministers of the Gospel to become members of thS General Assembly, which was left out in the Constitution of 1864, is restored. The State is forever prohibited from lending its credit to works of internal improvement. The basis of representation is reckoned on the whole population, instead of the wliites only, as in the present Constitution. The provisions in regard to the elective franchise do not differ materially from the article in the present Constitution, excepting the expurging of the test-oath, cverywhite male citizen being entitled to vote who has the usual qualifications. The Legislature is to provide for registration, and the registry to be conclusive evidence of the right to vote, the present law to continue in force until another shall be enacted, except so far as it may be inconsistent with the provisions of the new Constitution. An oath of office is prescribed, in which is a pledge by the holder not to receive the profits, or any part of the profits, of any other office during his term. The entire body of the present State of fice-holders, with the 6ingle exception of the Governor, who will serve until the end of the term for which he was elected," will be displaced on the adoption of the Consti tution, and the election and qualification of their successors as provided for therein. cannot be regarded as an effort to defeat them. The object of the change is to facili tate their execution through an officer who never failed to obey the statutes of the land, and within his jurisdiction will exact a like obedience from otheis." The President compliments Thomas and Hancock, and feels sure that under General Sherman's guidance, Sheridan will win hon ors fighting the Indians. In conclusion, the President fails to see any "military, pecuniary or patriotic" reasons why these orders should not be car ried into effect. ?

The Daily Buletin, a commercial paper printed in New York, in a review of the cotton crop for 1866, as com pared with the present growing corp, con cludes that the prospects of this year are less favorable than at this time last year. This conclusion may or may not prove true ; but one thing we know, and that is, greater ef forts have been made, at least in the Caro linas, for a larger cotton crop this year than there was made in 1 866. Yet the crop of this year may be less on account of the very heavy rains, and in many cases the difficulty of procuring proper labor. Generally the cot ton has been much injured by the excessive rains in June and July, and we fear the con tinued wet weather in August will be far from having a beneficial effect. A Valuable Invention. We notice that Mr. Henry G. nail, of Fayctteville, N. C, has perfected an invention which is no doubt valuable in Cotton Factories.

The Fay- etteville New, whose Editor recently visited the Factory, gives the following notice of the new invention : 44 Our readers most permit us here to make mention of Mr. II. G. Hall's invention, the Self -Adjustable Ring for the Spinning Frames. Great difficulty has hitherto been experienced by operatives, in spinning cot ton, to run the spindles smoothly and uni formly, and prevent breakage, waste and loss of time. Too great tension or slackness m the thread caused uneven places in the yarn, which constantly snapped add had to be started again. Mrj Hall's invention obviates all these difhculties, and combines increased celerity with durability and completeness. His patent will allow 10,000 revolutions per minute to be made and at the same time re quires for the same amount of work 50 per cent, less of help. ; While in the spinning op of that green hill at our left, wdnt back room we 8aw Mr- nal1'8 Patent rinS being woriteu uu one uj. iub liauicia, unu. were m- o Heaven ! , j Blessed is he whose eyes rest upon Jerusa lem, yet ruled as it is by the Moslem and tenanted by the Arab, with its rough, un Cleanly streets, and its lack- of thrift and Wealthy life. Do not enter the gate if you ivoultL preserve your dream unbroken: but turn away while yet the soft light lin gers, and in the South the stars begin to glimmer over the fields of Bethlehem. In- dt'pmdent. formed that during the day the thread had broken but once, while with the others the breakage was much greater. It consists of two eccentric metal rings, which, revolving together, throw the spindle concentric on the frame. : Dr. Mountain, chaplain to Charles II., was asked one day, by that monarch, to whom he should present a certain bishopric, just then vacant. 44 If you have but faith, sire," rcpli- said Charles, 44 if I but faith ?' 44 Why, yes," said the witty cleric, 44 your Majesty ftight say to this Mountain, be thou removed into tnat Sea." Tho chaplain succeeded. Statistics of thej colored schools in Vir gima show tnat nearly 1 7, uuu scholars are enrolled, the annual expense of whose teach ing will be about $100,000. In Richmond 3,000 colored pupils receive instruction from 43 teachers, some of the latter being also colored. The scholars are regular in attend ance, eager to learn, faithful to the require mcnts of the schools, and give good promise of becoming intelligent and worthy citizens. Executive Mansion, j Washington, Aug. 27. J Snt : In consequence of the unfavorable condition of the health of Maj. Gen.

The Vienna Gazette says that an alliance will be effected between Austria and France, if Prussia and Russia become allies. The submarine cable which connects Cuba with the United States was completed on the 22d inst. Thus the most important of the West India Islands is brought into immediate contact with our ideas and our institutions, a circumstance which cannot fail to have important consequences, even if Cuba should never be invaded again by fillibusters, and never tempt a Secretary of State to make another territorial purchase. The National Intelligencer says that John H. Reagan, Postmaster General under the Confederate Government, writes to a friend in that city that he has received his pardon from the President, and will devote himself to securing early reconstruction, and restor ing peace and harmony to the country.

General Howard. Mr. Johnson stated to-day that he placed no reliance upon the charges of "corruption made against General Howard, but thought he was a fanatic, and through him the Bureau could be used to organize a Republican party in the South, and he should, on this account, be obliged to remove him.
