AVe have received the first No. of this new paper, recently established in Wil mington by Henry I. Toole, Esq. former ly of this county. From the known and acknowledged abilities of Mr. Toole, as a talented and ready writer, it was confi dently anticipated that the Aurora would b6 edited with spirit and taste, and the reader of this No. will feel assured that the public will not be disappointed. It i very neatly printed, and contains a great variety of statistical and miscellaneous matter. Wc copy the two following arti cles from its columns. Introduction -Before the Public, the Aurora to-day appears a new candidate for its favor. Appealing to no party particularly fr.r its patronage, not even to the community which we hope to benefit for succor, we throw ourselves trustingly upon the Pub lic, expecting that degree of favor which we shall be thought to deserve. Morfe than this we have no right to clain;, and shall not ask. We have no pledges to make. We have little faith in them when made by others, and therefore can not expect more confi derrce to be given to our own.

Their support is more appreciated, because .it has been rendered irrespective of party distinctions, and because among them, have been spent the earliest years of our manhood. Tameet such just expectations as they may have formed will be our strenuous effort. The number of subscribers received, al tho sufficient to justify the commence ment of our publication, is far from suffi cient to sustain it. We 'rely upon acces sions to our list.

From the Raleigh Standard. f iJJThe last Baltimore Argus says it is reported that the Sixth AuditOrship ol the Treasury has been offered lo Mr. Wad dell, of North Carolina. Hugh Waddell Esq., of Hillsborough, is of course the gen tlcman alluded to ,--T From the Fayetlevitle Curolinian. A ?2czv scheme. Some of the Neu York papers contain a long letter from the Hon. T. L. Clingman, a whi;; member ol Congress from North Carolina, to Mr. Simeon Draper of New York city, in rela tion to the establishment of Batiks in dif ferent parts of the country, for the issue of bills based upon government stock, or for an issue of Treasury notes to incorporate! banks, or private bankers, upon a deposit' of government stocks with the Secretary of the Treasury. It appears from other sources, that Mr Clingman is not the father ol the sovc mentioned scheme. Mr. Fillmore is said to be its mother, and Mr. Clingnian only officiated as accoucheur, if there is anv truth in the following extract from a long editorial of theVashington Union: "The leading idea of the new hanking project originated, wo believe, with.

Important Verdict, ;n our report of yesterday's proceedings in the Superior Court will be found the decision ..of the ease of Milbank vs, Dcmnitoin anl Co The suit was to recover from a luwise in Liverpcol S10,000, as damages atisiag fvom disobedience or ueglrct of instruction and want of. care pn the part of a cominis sion merchant, entrusted withthedispos.il of 5000 barrels of flour shipped from this city. It seems the flour was sold earlier; than the directions suggested, at 21 .shil lings per barrel, vhen, had it been kept about three weeks longer it would have brought 29 shilling. The transaction was about the time the Biitiih Parliament made a reduction in corn duties, and the plaintiff's rcqucsi was to store the flour until the reduction ofdutv should have its anticipated fleet. Judge Stanford ex plained that the only question for the jury was whctlw the plaintiff had properly sustained his p'-ea, llup intimating that, a? i point of law, the matter was perfectly Hear. The jury considered ihat the com plaint was wi ll sustained, and rendered a verdict for tfl t.l SG 37.
