The njcesalty for availabsn funds, in rarrxina
nut out system, presents the greatest difaculty
in tbe bright career upon whtilrTdi' Stato ha
entered. In the public land we bars this treas,
are abundant fur all our purpoaes: and if par
tisans will abandon tLe grounds which are
no longer tenable, and unite in favor of didi-itnr
lion, all our projected and contemplated rail
road, all our river and sea.coast Improvements
nil our educational aehemes, all our benevolent
inilitutioua can. b complettd and supported
without laying on cent additional taxation on
our people.
It i puerile and unstateamandike to talk of
paying the national debt with the proceeds of
the public landa. . That will speedily te liotii.la;
ted by th abundant rerenuna from impost duties
llowing into th Treasury.
( It ia wore than idle, now, to atop at a in tbe
qncition of distribution. It I certain that that
policy t Jtxeit, -aa to Federal legislation. It
j ia too lata to raise a pretext for opposition to
geuaral distribution on ennatitutional acruples;
and the truth is, th claims of tb old State to
a portion of these lands ia "clear and indisputa
ble." "The only question of practical import ii,
who are to b recipients alt th '.State or the
Slates In which th public landa lie? Xortlu
Carolina granted the lands, or a part of them,
en trust. Ia ah nevor to receive her equitable
proportion of the benefit, of that trust? Will
ah quietly lit by and te heraelf deliberately
deprived of many million of dollar, and not
make an effort toaecur any part nf liar rightful
heritage? W hop not. Poll iy, right, pru
dence, aecessity forbid thia. W believe that
it ia tn th power of the present Legislature to
secure to North-Carolina heaYight in this mat'

MAGNETISM CITRIOL'S EXPERIMENT.
TheN"ew York Tribune give the following
account of th very singular vtfect uf Magn

it would apppenr from th statement, can very
easily be tested :
Singular results are obtained in this City

gency, to brute matter. Let a party of six or
eight persons sit arouud common pine tablo

from it, push away your chairs, still holding
your bands near, though it ia not neoesatry to
touch it and it will turn around from end to
end, and even proceed tepidly about tha room,
without any visible agent, on which oxenrsione
the persona must bear it company, or tb cur.
rent is broken and the movement tr,pa. This
simple experiment may easily be tried : it rc
quires no faith and-no outlay of physical or
moral strength ; and the result, with a table
that is not too heavy, is pretty sum to follow;
at. least, we have known of several inatnnccs in
which it has been most Sritonishingly produced.
