' P1IE paper fuvoral'l; known to lha eominuiuly inidcf JL the title mentioned above, has been transferred from the hands of its present editor, to those of the individ ual whose name appears at the foot of this proKpectus, snd will be issued under his auspices Irom and alter Ihe ?lh of Novenil er next Its name and politics will under go no change. As it has been, it will continue to he, an advocate and expounder of the doctrines of Ihe Whig Parly, and a firm and faithful defendei of the Rights and Honor of the Soulh. As a Y hig Press, it will be deci ded, yet liberal, extending to those who entertain a differ ent oliiical faith, that courtesy, which it will expect in retarn ; and as a Southern prpss, while it will stand al ways ready, like the sentinel upon the watch tower, to give the alarm, and arouse to action in times of difficulty and of danger, will still cherish an aJlectionale attach ment to the Union, and will desert it only, when it can be no longer picserved, with safety or honor. It will advocate the doctrine of.non-iiiterventlin by Congress, with reference to Slavery in Ihe Territories, both because its opjiosite is unconstitutional, and tiecause it is the only principle which will, in future, save the South, and prevent those evils, which have distu'bed and are now disturbing, the peace of our country. legurding the nation as a whole, with a community of feelihg and interest, it would favor a tariff for revenue, willi incidental protection to American industry. But while theKorth isarrayed against lire South,- and the un happy disseiisums which now divide us remain unhealed, it will oppose protsction, in sny form, w ith all the power which it mav oo8: It has bee.i tliouaht necessary to specify this much. with reference to the ujrVat topics which have lately enga ged so much of public attention. In regard to other mat ters, suffice it losjy that it Will, as staled ulsivc.be found acting with the hotly of the grfcat vV big Par y. It will lie the ell'ort ol the editor. In reiidet his sheet as interesting and attractive as any within the limits of the Slate ; an object w, ich he hopes he wull be ah!c to com pass, since from hi location, GoldsboroUgh, he will pos sess advantages for ihe early dissemination f news which no other place in Eastern Carolina can furnish. and since, lor the fairer portion ol his readers, he will not loret lo cull many a (lower from the fields of History, Poesy and r icllon.

A Movrtyay of c iINtlns; nrcrallsi Thrre i no riaH of people for whom the countrymen of ihe Southern Slates hare so prenl a dislike as those wearing fine clothes, and there jjn?."0rt,r-ay of bte,min! unpopular iih them than by going among them fasliionaldy dressed. This aversion extended ss far bark i the Urrolutinnarj '.War, as the following incident will show: During the Revolution, a Capt. E , mem ber of one of llit? first families of Charleston, hav ing lost in a skirmish most of his men, 'went to the interior of South Carolina fur the purpose of nliating recruit?. Having appointed n rendez vous, he spent a day or two in looking around tho country. At the time anil place appointed, be found a large number assembled, not one of whom would enlist. After several hours, spent to no purpose he appointed a rendezvous for the next day, and left the grptind. Next day camo and with it the same crowd hut lie met with no mote success than before. What roultl be the matter? It was tlie first time during the war that a recruiting officer had been entirely unsuecesa ful. Something must he w rong, and lie deter mined to know w hat it was. - Calling fiiie of the rustics aside, he asked: "Why, Is tt'ttiat I get no recruits?" "You don't think," answered the countryman. "that we are goin' to 'list under such a man as ymt aj?- You are dressed ..too fine to bo much of a lighter." In those days knee breeches and silk stockiucs were fashionable, and the Captain was dressed in that style; there lay his unpopularity. He turn ed to lite countryman; anil said: "So you object to my dress do you? Very well. Come here to morrow, and JahaJT Jiavc recruits." Next day the same crowd had assembled, an xious to know what new idea the dandy captain had got into his head. After the crowd had as sembled, Capt. E. stepped out and said in a clear and distinct voice: ".My friends, I understand that you object to me because I am dressed a littles finer than your selves. You think I am unable to fight on that account. Now I wish to make a proposition to you. I will whip as many of veil as will come out, one at a time, with the understanding that: every man is to enlist after he is whipped. Pick vour men and send them out." After a short consultation, a huge, broad shoul dered fellow came out. The Captain drew o(T his coat very coolly. Ho was large and well made, and a superior boxer. The countryman rushed up, intending to brush r ut the Captain in a few minutes. He mistook his man, however, ami soon measured his length on the grass, A greater bully than the first stepped out to take his place, and soon took his place on the ground. The countrymen stared. They bad no idea that such a man could tight, lie nail, however, enlisted two men, and must not be al- owed to go farther. The bully of the crowd now stepped out lo take the gentleman in hand. Ho was a stout fellow weighing aootit 200 lls. and bragged i hat he never had been whipped. He knew nothing, however, about boxing, and he very soon followed his companions. Never was a crowd so utterly confounded! Three of their best mm whipped by a man from the city! I'hey could hardly realize it, and stood perfectly motionless. , -ISh "Well, mv friends, are you satisfied? I i&f enlisted three ol your best men; I suppose you have no obiectinn now to lollow llieir example: "Not a hit of it," responded one of the crowd, .... , , , . i e ii "you II do to tieto.oir. leiiow. i,omeniys,iaii m.

Alvin Richardson, one of the assistant marshals employeil in the western fart of New York in taking the census, communicates to the Oswego Times the follow ing amusing illustration of the facility wilh which a man may be misled by answers that are direct and true, but "nothing else :" t I must now tell you of a joke I bad put on me in the good town of Palermo. I called in at a house early one morning, and saw a young girl whom I took lo be ten or twelve years old. I told her my business, which she took very emd lv. I asked her, "is your father a farmer .'" She answered, "he is. "Is he at home?" "He is." "Is he in the house !" "I suppose he is. Will he lmvc me the information?" "I sup- nose he will." I wailed awhile, and then askeiM "Have you a mother!" "I have." "Is she at home?" "She is.'1 "Will she be in soon?" "Can't say." "Is she gone from home ?" "She is not." Well, 1 saw there was but one room to the bouse, and had got lircd of waiting. I spoke to the girl, sa nig, "Where is your fath er?" The same answer, "he is at home. Well, where is he .'" Same answer, "ho is at home." "Well, where is your mothce?" "Why, at home." "Where in ihe name of common sense is their home 1" "Why, just over on the other street." Feeling rather chagrined, I asked, W ho is the head of this family Me answereu promptly, "Mv husband, sir." "Are ou mar- ried : "Yes. "nave you "u" yiow old are the children '. " l wo "How old is the other?" "Two "How is that?" "Very easy, sir; i" This solved the whole mvs- fine looking boys ; she is ihe youngest-looking mother I ever saw. ll shows how easy a matter it is to be mistaken. Old IT omen of the '?0 Home. What relates to Washington, and the war he led in, can never be tiresome. Here is an inci dent of a visit latclv ro:vde bv Lewis Caylor;! Clark to the "Old 78 Housm iTie tillage 'of- Tappan, and related in tlie editorial tossin of ths - July Knick. Arrived at the "Seventy-Six House, we X amincd iho room where Major Andr was fon- fined, and from which he went forth indie. Om? friend, and the jotter down hereof, were mads happy by present, from the obliging proprieto of the house, of two of the pietoretl rile whicU . compose a frameworlt around tne an place. rocketing these interesting memf tyos of the past, we next repaired lo an old, crumbling, low roofed mansion, once the head-quarter,., of, Geo. Washington. We drew rein at the gate, tnil parsed into a littlo patch ol meadow that lay be- j t ween us and the house. It was about half mown; . the swe ct scented glass lay in swaths around; and .L - l!l:.1.l .',..' J micro uic mower nan sioppcii in ins niiars, uiesr; lay his scythe and whetsinne. Little faith had ' our companion that Old KnicX" eonlt! Jeftfy 4 wield that instrument of "Old Tempos; but sk him now. Ask him if we didn't make the little meadow resound with the cling cling of the whet-' s:one, and then, seizing the sharpened instrument with long, sweeping strokes, lay close cot and clean a swath around that field as he ever saw in 1 his life. There are several things that we can't - do but we can mow! Well, rejoicing in the t glow which that best of all exercise had given, us, wc next repaired to the old house,, It wa more than a hundred years old, and the cry per -souificatioti of decay. We enlersd, ajd were: cordially wplromrd by its occupanis, two elderly t Uidie,-Jio were born in (he house. Nothing 1 could bo in more perfect keeping with the man-1 sion than those two women. One wae nearly ' eighty, and the other turned of tetenty, bot both were most agreably lively for persons so old, and were obligingly communicative. .Many and many a time," said the elder of the two, "in thi very room, has Gen. Washington held me in hir lap. 1 remember it just as well as if it was bat yesterday. He was a most lovely man, (Jen. , Washington wan lovely!

"Oh," said the old lad)' "I seen him morc'n fifty times, He was a handsome t man, and ho was a kind man. ,1 teen him the) very morning they took him to the top . of th hill to hang him. Every body felt sorry for him."; - We asked how (en. Washington seemed lr feel on the occasion. "Oh, he must ha' felt dread ful! He walked back'ards and for'ards all that , morning in ibis very room! and I've hearn Pop' Hl.invcli says that be never see him ' feel ao badS afore. He kept looking at his watch every pow-' and then, and was oneasy till Ihe time bed eome,4 ami Major Andre was hung. I seen jiMajor Att-' drc myself when he was a awingin' and 1 seen)' him when he was dug up; and so did yon, too, Polly, didn't you?" The old lady mentioned a circumstance connected with the revolution, ami f with this spot, that struck na as jntereltinjf and,, somewhat instructive. The enemy, it would, seem were in the habit of coming sometimes intov the rich valley of Tappan, and driving off ealrte,; " sheep clc. '"One day Pop Blanvcll'if nigger; boy Jim, hearing some of 'em coming, drove alt - our rattle into the swamp, ana wnen mey comer up he told 'em he hadn't seen no cattle, and axr saved 'em. Pop Blanvelt liked him r ranch fbrs this, that he told him he might have hUt nbertr, but Jim wouldn't: be staved with fcfm more forty years a'ter that." And thu these good old people beguiled an hour with reminiscence of the revolution, to some others of which'' w may have occasion to reler to hereafter' Otrr rido home in the evening was made doubly pleaa-' ant by all that we had seen and heard, and we, re tired to rest to dream ot outer days, ami m , io "times that tried men's souls." v ' Two.' years." years. thev are twins : terv.
