We have great confidence in the vkill of th6 Assistant Engineer, Maj. Mc Ilea; he is not extravagant or pompous jn hi pretensibhs, but any one can per ceive that'hejf ju man of excellent: sense and knows welll what he is about.. The other gerHfemrij associated with him are npkssualifietl for their positions. We may therefore -consider the Company as Ytry tot an at ji everyespqct in obtain ing sack Engineers. ; We have heard al- ,a that i more economical set of men - , . j j j ytpe never engaged in any business, and ijjjtbe Company in that respect is also fortunate.': Wef learn too, which is the best part of it,; that they have not had a drop of spirituous liquor in the camp since they have befnlout. I ' ' . fit 1 BOSTON SLAVE CASE. We have' hail another fugitive slave case in Bostori.jand like ihe first, has ter- minated,sofarto the great discredit of that j City. A slavej bejongingo a gentleman at 'Norfolk, Va.j, was arrested on the charge cf bemg a JTurtivc, and brotjghj before the United Stales Court in Boston at 1 1 o'clock, otKthc 15th inst. Wher brought before the-Coprt, the negro sent off lor Marcus Mortop to serve him ; as counsel. A number of other lawyers were quickly assembled and volunteered their services. The arrest v;U soon rumored in certain streets chiefiyj occupied by free negroes, and in JessfthajrJ half an hour lf0 were in the Court roomj and about the doors. Seth J. TIiomas!appeared for the claimant. - it was th(jn arrangedJ)y the, counsel to try the case. or Tuesday, and t;he Marshal was directed to hold ihe prisoner in his custody until that time ; and the proceed ings were thenjadjourned. The Commissioner then left, and the Acting Marshal cleared the Court room of the crowd excepting some four or five of the M higtier law" party, some of jwho'm intimated that; pistols would be used. As one , of the Iavyycrs for the fugitive at tempted to leave the room, a largecrowd of free neroeswho had noiselessly taken their position irj the stair-way, closp to the door, broke in, .Jurcing the door back, kick ing over the olticers and yelling at the top of their voiced. They seized the pris oner imd dragged him out, and rushed him through several streets until they got bim m.to a ca), and thus affected 'his es cape. . ; H While this yas going on the good May- ui nifn guuuty was quieij-y eating his dinner;; ami no effort, either by him cr any one cise, worthy the ijame of an effort, was made either to suppress the the mob, or p arrest the fugitive, who was 150 miles on his way to Canada at lastaccounts.j jWhat a disgraceful affair ! To what an Open shame Boston has sub jected hersell;! and what an insult to the Majesty of this great Country!! These nroeeedinjTM wpm lmmiuir rw f .H.. ":. i .1 communicated to the President, and soon after he caused to be telegraphed to Boston, a poclamation callingupon the City and State officers, civil and military, and all good: citizens to rally! to the de fence of the? laws. One of itho " high cr law party, even sneered at; this, open ly, in Court. ' Had things' stopped here, it would have been had indeed ; And .would have pro duced a feetijig in tjho whole South as un conquerable as the burning resentment of man's naturqjs capable of showing. But it is gratifying; to see that Boston is deter mined, so far'as she can, to wipe out this lout blot oil ht-r character. Irge num bers of her citizens and her military have tendered' thqir services to the Mayor to .bring the offnder$ against the Jaws to condign punishment. A number of the , M higher law gentlemen, have been al ready arrested and bound over to, answer io ihe law arid for the part they took. in , procuring thejespapo of the. fugitive. The acting Marshal is responsibleto the a .oiint of the value of the slave to the claimant; and if he is made to; pay it, and the contemners of the law are suita bly punished, Boston will have done much to relieve her present disgraceful position-to -advocate the claims of jus tice, atid allay the feelings of the South. We believe phe will do it. Trial of SIrs. Simpson. We, are in debted to Messrs. E. J. Hale cj. Son for 'copy pf thtrial of Mts. Ann K. Simp on, charged with the murder ofVher hus. fnd; Alexander C.

Mr. Editor have iuat deceived a Weutr trcm a highly respectable citizen of Jonesbo.f rough, Tennessee; in behalf of tU citizens ol that tectifri, wairrtily seconding in the main, the! ystem of Roads proposed long since by ome of our citizens, lo wit, a connection bf Rail Road or otherwise belwfen Jonesboro'JTpni j " t a a .....

' Je earnestly request mat me citizens of our State should co-operate with them immediati lv ir the eetablisbmenl of a line of four horse "posl t .t . .-. it coacnes, inree times per week, between the great South. Western line of Rail Road ip that section, and the North Carolina Rail Rqad.-i 1 he di stance from Jonesborouh to Charlotte5 or Salisbury, being about 155 miles, or 143" miles irom the nearest point at Lacy's in Ten! nessee. It will be seen that this fchort ine o .'ii . ' i em;f8 win open at once a very important com municalion betweeo the largest portion tof our Estate and ihe West and South. west, (ibis be! mg the nearest route between Salisbury and Knoxviille, 1 en.,) also between Charleston, Si C, and Western Virginia; and will facilitate the intercourse so much desired in view uliimaie connection by Rail Road. This T ennessee writer says " Forty of our Rail Road has already been put contract commencing 15 miles above" ville, and arrangements are being made ika rVrn n 1 1 n tnl.. of an miles under Knox to put ...v. iiiioiiiuci uuuer coiuraci as soon as sibfe." The " Carter and Johnson Turnpike load? in I ennessee is ahnm fi our uoaa at the btate line; and the 'jCald. well and Watauga Turnpike" will be Cample, ted during the Summer and Fall ; whejn the one as a Stage-Road will possess every ad. vantage that can reasonably be desired. If it be too late for this Congress to act in thocase, still, we cannot too soon have the main r dis cussed and appreciated. f Your readers, generally, will he pie ised J think, to learu that the citizens of our rounty have engaged in the prosecution of our system of fine roads, with spirit and energy. The several roads, one leading from Lenoir West to the Caldwell and Watauga Turnpike one East to the county line in the direction of Salis bury or Taylorsville and one South to th? county jline at the " Catawba Bridge" in direction of Charlotte, have all been surveyed on a grade ol one foot In tweaty, and aboijr H50 hands have been lately engaged 2 week (more or less) in making them. ' The Load to the Uridge is nearly completed, and the work on the others progressing finely, and will be j completed at October Court, by which ime I have no doubt the citizens of Alexander county will complete the road on the same easy grade to the termini of the various Plank Roads tb Taylorsiville. The new road to Morr;anlori, has also been recently constructed mos y on a grade of one fool in twenty, with a des ign of reducing the whole ultimately to that grade, which will1 complete our system of roads ex cept the branch to the head of the proposed Yadkin navigation atWilkesborough. Thusi it will be seen that a line of rof ,d from Salisbury to Jonesborough, Tenn., wi0 very speedily be completed on a grade of one foot in twenty, (provided your Plank Road is built,) excepting a very few miles ascending the Blue Ridge, which we design also to reduce to the same grade. Also a line from Salisbury to Morganion. What." So much of the long talked of rt Western Turnpike?" Ys, sir, aim milium wie aiu or oiaie ouicersi on otate lunds ; land so much of it sir, as lies in our county without much aid of any sort s ive the stout arms and willing hearts of our c itizens. Ancj werhave made it just where it ought to have been located by the Engineer employed by the State, for we believe it is about is near as anyroute on that grade ; on a much finer soil for a road, and through a better and a much more interesting country. It is also worthy of notice that on all our new roads, running through muck bottom an& meadow lands, that the whole amount of dam age claimed and allowed for right of way, will not amount to S200. I But Lhave digressed a little," and vf ill juit come to a hurried conclusion, with the predic tion that the county of Caldwell, beforet anoth er new-year shall usher in, wtll stand confess edly the first in the State fbrgood roads. I do not know belter how to answer the re. quest 'madd by the citizens of Jonesborough, that the citizens of CharlotTe and other Towns in our Slate should move in this planot a fine line of Stages, than to request the Editors and cuizensiin Salisbury and other places interest ed, to laike up the subject, WM. A.ENpiR. f Note by the Editor. The citizens of this Town have already petitioned Con gress far the establishment of a ine of Stages through 1 ay lorsville, Leno r, &jC.; and it is hnnp.fi it is not vt ton lkt for , j Congress to act upon the subject.

The eilection 6r Delegates lo the Slate Coh vention, came off in South Carolina on Monday and Tuesday last.

On Saturday the 15lh inst., during a short hut violent storm of wind and rain the Branch Mint m this place had two chimnies blown down h the roof into the coining room, and it is a most fortunate circumstance that the hands were not at work in that room at the time or they would certainly have been killed. Our Court House also had one chim ney blown down and a good deal of the tin blown from the roof. The damage to the Mint will be repaired by the last of the week, so that the operation will not be retarded. Char, lolle Journal. Plumbago. SU. Samuel B.
