SATURDAY. DECKMtfER 16, 1843 Pre&tfent's Aiessnge. We inseit to day the Menage of President Tyler. He gives, it will be .een, a flalterin view of the internal condition oF the country, and of our foreign relations. The unequivocal language held respecting the Oregon Ter ritory, and Texas and Mexico, will he ap proved by the patriotic arid cdnsiderale ol all parties. But the financial condition of the country, appears to he getting worse land ivoise, and we i .dine to the belief hr the remedy suggested by the President, will not find favor in the sight of either of the great parties of the country. The Message is an able and well written docu ment, and merits, as it doubtless will re ceive, an attentive and careful perusal. (JThe following is the reply of Col. Johnson, to the invitation to Visit Ral eigh: IP ashing ton, 20 h Not??. ts43 Gentlemen, I have the honor 10 acknow ledge the receipt of your commiinicatidn, inviting me to visit the Capitol of )our State. In our federal constellation there is hot a brighter star than that of North Caro lina. In our earliest struggle for liberty, ihe was foremost to shake off the shackle of foreign oppression, and proclaim to her confederated sisters her independence. For its establishment, she withheld no sac rjflcej nor counted her richest blood too dearaprice. The character which she tHen- established for gallantry and patrio tism, she has well sustained in all the polit ical vicissitudes through which our Repub lic has since paed; and in all i's progress from infancy to maturity, she hag given a uniform example to the world of generous, j tindeviating devotion to the principles tvhich-first stimulated her to action. Hav ing ever7 cherished a veneration for that no ble State", It has long been my desire to mafee it 4 visit. Whether it will be in my bowers. this time to do so, is yet proble- . 'i..-r n f : . J mallear." Business ui preaJMiijj; unciw ue- tains me for a season at, of near this place, from which I can make but short excur sions. In compliance with the request of friends I am at this moment about taking my departure for a day or two into Mary landbut roust hasten back to this city. When my engagements here shall be ac complished, if the season shall not be too far advanced, and if circumstances will per mit, it will, give mfcthe greatest pleasure fo visit the Capital of that honored State. Public, service has not permitted me to pend -a -winter at my home for forty years.- It. is rrry intention to enjoy that long desired yet long departed luxury the approaching winter. A little time v i T I de termine whether it will be practicable for -me to tndnfge'the wih of exchanging salu tations with my fellow-crtizenS of North .OaroWfia ia Ralfrigh? and if so, I shall re gard it my duty lb advise you of it. 1 have the honor to be. With profound respect, Your fellow citizen, RH: J&JXSfrN. James B. Shepard, and others. (JThe Whig Convention which met at ftaleigh on the 7th inst. nominated Henry Clay for the Presidency, and Vrn. A. Graham for Governor. (fcyThe Charlotte Jeffe'Sonian suggests to the young men of the Democratic prty throughout the country, the propriety of fheir holding Conventions in the drfferent part of .the Union; and proposes that the young men ol the party in the IMoithern and Eastern States, hold a convention rn New York. Those of the Western and Middle States at Cincinnati, or some other point in the West, and' those of the Southern States' at Charleston, during the ensuing winter or spring. This in an admirable Alan, we think. It is to-be hoped it wj be earned out by the young Democracy, thorough organization and concerted ac (ion, are necessary fof'ouf party, in order to be successful in th coming struggle; and if the young men are only zealous jn tne rail there is no doubt btn that ve shall he successful.

It appears, that while she was m me nouse, engaged in ge'ttng ii. r g'ease, which had been -pui ontne hearth caught fire & commu -w wner clothes.

She lived twenty four hours after theoceuircncesufleringthe wo1 excruciating pain. E. City O. N. Stute. Exportation of Cotton Good.A Boston correspondent of the Uoehes er Democratic furnishes that paper with a statement, taken from the custom house books, of the amount of DirAesttcs .-hip ped from that port diiiing the last three months. The aggregate amount is 12,763 biles and 39 cases, equivalent to more than nine millions of vards. The total amodnl of sales of cotton goods alone of Massachii ettsand Rhode Island manufactured within three months, is estimated at S5,000,000. The stock markets of this city, and of New York were in a very excited state during the last week. Sales to an immense extent took place, and the spirit of stock gambling was never more rile. In New York, for example, during one day, S400, L'OO in Mate stocks were sold, while in Philadelphia immense sales also took place The most worthless description of stocks, for at least such as were so regarded some months since,) are now qui'e in demand For example: Girard, which at one time sold at Si per share, has been .selling for some days in large quantities at Irom 7 to H 1-2. Vicksburg. which at one tune sold at 50 cents a share, have been s Ming at 4 12. United States Bank has risen to 1-2. immense sums have been made in some cases; but the bubble will soon explode, & many person will no doubt, be ruined. We earnestly caution our readers against the system. Bicknelrs Phil. Hep. (jThk Savannah Georgian mentions the discovery of an article which promises to be the means of saving many lives in shipwreck, and would be invaluable on our western wateis, so obnoxious td dam age from snags and other accidents It is an air pillow, and U called Mackin tosh's Air Pillow. It is represented as" being the cleanest, softest, most whole some, cheapest, and most durable pillow thatcan be used, and covered with a pillow case, it is like any other pillow. In dan ger it is ever at hand, night and dav, and when uncased, will exhibit straps or strings to pass across, through, and tie on the front, round the body, Iront downwards. Il will float the person with head and shoulders above the water. How many lives might have been pre served within these few years past, had the numerous steamboats on the Mississippi and the Ohio been provided with an inven tion of this kind. Augusta Con.
