In connection with the date of this vol , ume, it may not be inappropriate to insert the' following extracts from Martin V His tory of North Carolina,' .With-rerd to the introduction of the Press into this State: A Printing Press was this year (1749) imported into this province, and set up at Newbern by James Davis of Virginia This was a valuable acquisition, for hither to, the want of an establishment of this kind was severely felt; the copies of the laws being all.manuscrip's. were necessarily ve ry scarce, and. it is likely, faulty and in accurate." Vol II. p 51. In the course of this year, ('752 ) was completed the printing of the first tevisal of the Acts of Assembly. The multiplica tion of them by. means of the press was a valuable advantage; it tended to introduce ordea and unifor.nity in the decisions of courts, and by defining the right of the people, in a degree put an end lo the great l anarchy and contusion which had hitherto ! prevailed; from the ignorance of the people and the magisjrates in this respect. The work was handsomely printed, and bound in a small folio volume; a yellowish hue of the leather with which it was coveic-J, proceeding from the uuskilfuluees of the tanner, procured it, the homely appellation of the Yellow Jacket, which it retains to this day " Vol II. pp 5S, 59.

(Kemainder next, wee fc ;f TARBOROtJGII : WEDNESDAY, CK'TOHER I. 1845. The Democratic Review. The September number of this able pe nodical is on our table. It is' the first issued under the new terms viz: S3 per annum); J and though some what curtailed in size, yet in spirit and bility there is no diminution. The number before us. is embellished with a fine portrait of 'Andrew Jackson I ; . his last days a) beautiful mezzotint engraving representing the old Hero i.i lie downhill of life, and declared by Mr. Van-Uuren and others to give a more per. fuel idea of the great and good old man t ran any other likeness. - There is a painful expression about the features' the inevitable consequence of the long and distressing illness which pre ceded "his death. The artist has how. feVer been true to the original and has pre . served, with remarkable accuracy under the circumstances, those inefficeble (even by disease) lineaments, which as much as his personal conduct, went lo make up the aggregate of those endowments, which stamped his name upon the age, as the ir an of the "iron will." The first article is entitled ''Political Patronage" and exhibits some Marlling fjcts of the immense powers wielded by die government in the distribution of offi ces and rewards. The "monthly financial and Commercial aiticle" is marked by its usual ability in structive as well lo the general reader as to the politician and statesman. Tarboro. Female JJcademy.

We have ourselves had an opportunity of wit nessing personally the progress and effi ciency, of the scholars, and we can safely rjecommend the school to public patronage and support. j The scholastic year has been so arrang ekl, that the vacation falls within the sickli est months of : the year, for the benefit of students from a distance. Vhere are many considerations why. we think ? good Female School (such a the present) should be sustained in Tarboro, we 4nay take up the subject in our next. From the Raleigh Standard. J2 High-handed Measure.- It seems hat within the last few mouths, some dis urbances have ariseirbetween two or three A the independent States of sSouth Ameri :a, which have resu'ted in actual hostilities. Phe Republic of La Plata was One of the parties to the war, and it seems, from the biost ? rel iable intelligence, that the British and French commanders of vessels in that huarter, have taken possession oj the na vat jorce or iiuenos siyres. the capiloi ol La Plata. In addition to this, one of, the c hie is in com mand had been warned by tli Hritish and French to retire from before Montevideo. The Washington Union comments with just severity upon this t hish-handed measure. It is not known I that any ofthe rights or ioteresU of the U- nlted States have been dlrictty infringed! bjrthis movement; ;but we agree wiiii. Union that "encroachments of this charac tersarmed interferences by European powei s in the affairs of this continent can not be noted too early, nor frowned upon too sternly, nor repressed too sooo Ihe balance of power claimed by the French Minister, M. Guizot, does not exist on IhisContinenU and never will extsv wnn the consent of the people of the tinted states. We shall doubtless soon get more news in relation to this movement. From the Newberniari. Equestrian Statue of Gen. Jackson. We understand, feavs the Washington Bee, that a meet inR of the Heads o De partment and other distinguished officer of Government took place on Wednesday, at the President' mansion, for the purpose of considering a plan for the erection of an equestrian statue in honor of the illustrious Jackson at the seat of Government The President of the United States was present and heartily approved of the object. He intimated that he should he proud to head the list with a handsome subscription. We learn that a committee of our most re spectable and influential citizens will be ap pointed to receive contributions from thos? who niav be desirous lo subscribe for an ob ject so laudable in itself; and which will add so much to the oeauty oi our ciiv. I'hff Hon. Cave Johnson is spoken of as chairman of the committee: and a better selection could hardly be made. From the Union. Postmasters We re desired to call the attention of postmasters to regulation No. 519, which provides for the conveni ent transmission of money from subjcriber.- to editors of newspapers. It is the duty ol postmasters to receive the money from a subscriber, and give a receipt for it. It is ihe duty ol the postmaster recti vmg the money lo give notice to the postmaster who has it to nav, of the amount received. ml for what editor, and mark the letter "official business.'" and sign his name to it. The postmaster leceivin the notifica tion will pay receipt when presented. The subscriber who gets the receipt, may send it by mail or otherwise to lhe editor. I he new law prohibits postmasters from en closing and franking money to editors Vhe reason of the rule is obvious. A large proportion ofthe monev heretofore lost in oeing transmitted through the mails, money sent lo editors and franked by post .... I" I. . .f n n..t r.o.tol' iinnn the letter addreessed to an editor, is notice i to everybody who handle? the letter that it contains money. ' This rule, when under stood, insures i he payment ofthe money, without discount to editors, and avoids depredations upon the post office. Afurdertr arrested. We learn from lhe New York papers thai Hunter Hill, the murderer of M j Smith of Nansemond county, Va., was ar n sted in that city on Monday of last w eek. where he amved in a vessel, tin being irn iL Hi innuireil it the ll.lr Was iead, and expressed his reaiUness logo back lo Virginia, and be Hied, alleging that he had not slept lor three nights. lie was taken before tt.e Mayor and examin ed, ami offi. er Leonard was deputed by consent tf the accused to proceed wnh him io Vnginia. to deliver him up to the auihor ities for trial. I he gentlemen who had I olio wed him there, aver that he i at least thirty pounds lighter than v hen they la-u saw him. just previous to the commission of the tout deed. That evening he r ques ted the officers to remain in his place of confinement, being afraid lo be left alone. The New York Morning News says: We understand thai he admits hiving stabbed the Major, but piofesses to have been first assaulted." Vermont Legislature. Complete re turns from every county in the State how that 75 democrats, I15whigs and 10 abo litionisis, have been elected to the House of Representatives, and 7 democrats and 2:j whigs lo the Senate. Last year the House comprised 59 democrats, 124 whig and 7 abolitionists. Whig net loss in the House thirty two;, gain in the Senate, six. Whig net loss on jmt ballot, twenty-six. I he majority against Slade will be about three thousand. Boston Post. The Hon. Wm. C. Preston, while retur ning from, his salt works lo Abingdon, Va., was seized with a sudden affection of the brain, and immediately deprived of sight The disease assumed the character of con gestive fever, and for some days his life was despaired of. Our latest information is, that he has recovered his sight, and is now thought to be out of danger. Columbia South Carolinian. The. murderers of Peyton. The t wo men, Underwood and Duncan who have been some time in imprisonment oh the charge of killing. Wm. W.

When the blood becomrs cloggrd, thick, and move through the veins and arteries with a sjuggish motion, we may rest assured that sickness, with its concomitant train of evils is about to en sue. The utmost caie and greatest precau tion are therefore necessary, and the sys tern should be closely watched.
