The polls will be opened in this State on Thursday week next, the 10th Nov. for the purpose of se lecting fifteen Presidential Elec tors. The Whigs are straining every nerve to obtain the ascen dancy, 8c consequently it requires corresponding efforts on the part of the Republicans, or defeat may await them.

Know Ye! that we, the Free men of Caswell, resolved not to tarnish the fame of the illustrious Patriot whose name our country bears, nor to apostatize from the principles and deeds of our fathers and predecessors do issue this our Challenge and Proclamation, inviting those of our sister Coun ties who acted with us in by-gone days, in sustaining the glorious cause of Republicanism hereby pledging a Hogshead of Dan Riv- erTobiceo, to a Bale -of Cape Fear Cotton, that we will, at the election, on the tenth day of No vember, proximo, give to the Ticket on which are the names of the War Candidates, Nat. Macon and Kobert Love, in opposition to the Peace Candidate, John L. Tooiner and J. O. K. Williams, a unanimous vote than any of our sister Counties of Republican fame, not excepting our well tried sistrr of Edgecombe.

(announced in our lat) it became necessary to select another gentleman, as a candidate on the Democratic K lectoral ticket. And it is with much pleasure we are enabled to stale that the Delegates for the Edentnn district have nominated Dr. Gideon C. JWar chant of Cur rituck county. Dr. Marchant is Ohio. A ut hemic intelligence from Columbus, Ohio, as late as the 2 G 1 1 i instant, assures us that Vance is undoubtedly elected Go vernor of that State, although the majority in his favor had not been ascertained.

Jour, of Corn. INDIAN WAR. From the Savannah Georgian of 0th inst. Still, later from Florida. The steamboat Charleston, Capt. Bon nell, arrived last evening from Jacksonville, which place she left on Friday. From a passenger we learn that the forces under Gov. Call had met with some In dians near Fort Drane, and after a short skirmish with them on .Monday last, drove them into the hammocks, the Indians leaving four of their dead on the field. Next day (Tuesday) another skir mish took place, with similar re sults, the Indiana leaving 5 dead on the field. The gentleman, from whom we derived this infor mation, understood that none of our men were injured. Major Pierce was on his way to join Gen. Call at Volusia. TEXAS. The reader will find in another column copious extracts from the Texas Telegraph, giving some idea of the present aspect of affairs in Texas. Gen. Houston, it seem?, has been actually elected President of Texas. Perhaps this is well enough, as their military affairs must be of more interest for some time to come than their civil government, and it might be productive of civil consequences were the Commander-in-chief of the Army subject to the control of the Chief Magistrate of the coun try in the management of matters merely military. By uniting the two ofiices in the same individual, promptitude and decision of ac tion will be secured, w hile the res ponsibility will not he divided and the commanding officer will be induced by every consideration to discharge faithfully his duty. Mexico seems to be in a stale of loose. unbridled anarrliv. A new General (Bravo) had been I appointed for the arm) , but lie J seems to be exceedingly oopopu- J lar among them and strong symp- toms are evinced of a determiua- j tion not to recognise his authori-1 ty. As to all purposes of internal j policy or the power even to con duct foreign negotiations, Mexico hail as well be without any gov ernment at all. Mobile Register. o Texas. Col. C. P. Greene, of the Texas army, arrived at New Orleans on the 4th inst. from Vel asco. lie reports that official in telligence had been received by express from Gen. Rusk, at head quarters of the army, stating that Capts. Carries and Teal, the com missioners, who had teen detain ed and imprisoned in Matamoras, had just arrived in the Texan camp, making their escape from close imprisonment. They state the Mexican forces lo be at that time, the Gth of SeptV, 1C00 that Gen. Bravo had been ap pointed to the chief command of the army, and Gen. Valencia se cond; that Bravo was to have tak en up his march with large rein forcements for Matamoras, and that the reinvasion ofTexas would soon after commence. Col. Greene left the Texan ar my in good health and spirits, up on the La Baca river. Gen. Rusk had just recovered from severe illness. Gen. Greene and F. Huston were both in good health. The Gale of the 10th and 11th instant did great damage to ves sels on our coast. At and near the Bar and Cape tlatteras, there is said to be an unusual number of disasters. The brig Fortune, loaded with lumber and outward bound, went on shore, bilged, and is lost. Schooner Susan Mary. Snow, for New York, was driven on shore; after discharging her cargo of naval stores, she was got off, and has since been brought to this port to repair damages. Brig llail-tvay, in ballast, on shore. It is believed that she has been, or will be got off. Schr. Ladies1 Fancy and Sailors1 De- light on shore, six miles north of Halteras; cargo saved, damaged. Schooners Select and Convoy both went ashore, the former got off, the latter probably off also. Schr. James L. Summers, ashore at Kinnikeet, 12 miles north of Halteras, cargo saved, but dam aged. A large brig, name not re ported, ashore north of Halteras. Steam packet fVilliam Gibbons, from New York to Charleston, ashore at Chicamacomico, 150 passengers, the greater part of whom have gone to Charleston in a vessel chartered for the purpose. A large number of smaller ves sels on shore, and a genilemanjust from the coast informs us that it is literally "strewed with wrecks." It is truly a matter of thankful ness that property alooe lias been destroyed by this gale. As far as we have learned, there has not been a single life lost. Neivbern Spec. More disasters by irate of the Wth. A letter dated Portsmouth Roads, (N. C.) Oct. 13, states that there were ten vessels ashore on the beach between New Inlet and Cape Halteras. among which was the brig Fortune, Captain Chamberlain, totally lost. Norfolk Herald. U7lJickjieirs Reporter of Tuesd ay has the following para graph. No other Philadelphia paper makes mention of the re port: "We understand from good au thority, that the Directors of thf Bank of the United States have it in contemplation to propose to our Stale Legislature, at the next session, to abandon their charter, providing the bonus which has been paid to the State, be return ed to the Bank." A letter to the Editor of the Patriot, dated Cincinnati Oct. 15 says, The pork season is at hand, and no way opens yet to gel funds from our banks to carry on the business; and until the Treasury order is rescinded.

This is the case now perhaps a mouth hence it will be on the South. Land Sidr Wl Arkansas Times says that th late land sales in I ontotoc, .Mississippi, produced fifty per cent, less than that sold heretofore. On the day of sale, 25 percent, premium was paid for Silver. The United States and Mexico The Philadelphia Daily Adver tiser of Tuesday furnishes the fol lowing information: 'We understand that Mr. Gor ostiza, the Mexican Minister, ar rived at the Mansion House yes terday from Washington. We are extremely sorry to hear, from a respectable source, that his ne gotiations with our Government Imvo tprminno1 :.r I uiitiiMaciorn v, and that he is preparing to return home with his diplomatic family. This will be unwelcome news to the friends of peace, and to the commercial interests of this coun try." From the Juburn X. Y. Journal. Unparalleled Snoiv Storm. On Tuesday night, the 5th inst. snow commenced failing in this vicinity. It continued through out Wednesday and the following night, with very little abatement; and up to Thursday morning is supposed to have fallen to the depth of at least 24 or 26 inches. Although thawing very fast dur ing the whole time, yet on Thurs day morning a friend of ours tnnk the pains to ascertain its depth in an ntien IpvpI fill ,,:u il an open level held, which proved . ..w.w iu iu incnes. From the extreme dampness and weight of the snow, much damage, hns been done to fruit and forest trees. Jt fell in solid sheets upon the branches still covered with foliage, and literally crushed them to the earth. Whole orchaid (more particularly south of us) are in this way greatly injured, many trees entirely ruined; and even in the woods, many a noble tree has been trimmed of its fair proportions. The orchards and ornamental trees in and about the village have suffered materially, 4ud will long bear marks of the ruin worked by the October snow storm of 1836'. P. S. This morning we have another snow storm; having had snow for three Wednesday in suc cession. It began briskly; anil as to the ending, we wot not of it.. jfcrefgn. One day later from France. By the packet ship Nonnaudie, Capt. Pell, arrived yesterday from Havre, Paris journals have been received to the 15th of Sept. They add very little to our previ ous accounts of Europe affairs. Marshall Souk's refusal of the war port-folio is reiterated, and a rumor is given that Gen. Bernard, so well known in this country has been called on by the King to as sume this post. It is not improb able, as the King is known to have confidence in the general. Lelteis from Spain say that the health tf the queen regent is seri ously affected by the troubles and anxieties she endures. The de mands of the ultra liberals are said to be on the increase; they require now the abolition of hereditary peerages and of entails, as well as the MippressioiMifall religious es tablil iments. Nothing farther had been heaid of the Carlist gen eral Gomez. The condition of .Madrid is said to be frightful, and the armies are represented to be much infected with the spiiit of insubordination. Three Spanish Decrees of 30th August direct the sale of the bells and furniture of the convents, and a forced l an ol 20 millions ster ling to defray the expenses of the war. The disrobing of the con vents must go hard against the auceni and inveterate prejudices of Spanish fanaticism. lhe Cholera has carried offa : great number of the French truoos ' . m garrison at Anrwia.
