our common gratitude lor the signal
- have lately marked the history of our counlrv, to
which the State of North. Carolina has so eminent-
-
ly contributed. I earnestly hope, as I most firmly
believe, that the recent change wiil be the harbin
ger of many blessings, and that the wise and mod
erate councils of the new Administration will so
commend themselves to the patriotism and. enlight
ened judgment of airsober minded men, as to rc
ducc the pre-detcrniined and violent opposition to
a mere faction. After the heats of the contest have
subsided -an event which all. must desire, and al
-Khould contribute -to consummate, I doubt not that
tne goou intentions oi inc ivummistration will 1
appreciated and that they will be strengthened and
made efficacious by a prudent ard deliberate public
-opinion, advisory in its character, and altogether
distinct from the wild and dangerous impetuosity of
partisan excitement. IuJccd I feel the deepest
assurance (snd upon this I most heartily congrat
ulate you,) that our triumph hat; been for our
country, and not Tom party ; and as all the ends
aimed at have the dignity of patriotism, so the
means adopted will be characterized by a corres
ponding gravity and deliberation.. The condition
of the country, internally arid externally, imposes
an awful responsibility ,uand exacts the profoundest
wisdom for its restoration. How this has come to
,pass, should not furnish grounds for mutual and
unavailing .reproach but how it is to. be remedied;
should iirse us Ho conciliation and united efforts.
Animated by this spirit, those who are now in
power will not consider themselves as victors enti
tled to spoils but as -servants to whom are confid
ed important trusts and the performance of high
duties. ,

Rill which recently passed the Virginia Leg

any citizen or resident of the State of New

The design cf the inspection thus! ordered
is "to see that no slave or "person held to ser

commission of any crime, shall be concealed
on board ' said, vessel."
The captain or owner of any such vessel de
parting without-inspection is subject to a pen
ally, for the benefit of any person who will
sue for the same. Every vessel as above de
scribed th.it enters within the limits of Virgin
ia is to be taken possession of by the inspector,
and to be held by him until a bond vyith two
securities is given by the captain or owner to
secure the payment of any judgment -rendered'
on violation of the act. If the captain or own
er cannot procure suTt a bond, then his prom
ise under oath, not to viol te any of; the con
ditions U the. Act, shall be sufficient! Every
vessel 'is liable for the expenses of her inspec
tion. The Act is not to go into force until May,
The Governor is also authorized to
suspend its operation if the Governor of New
York shall comply with the requisitions of

Gex. Gaines's Suit. Gen.. Gaines's su?t
against B. Chew and others, is in a queer pre
dicament. , i T
Gen. Gaines wants to proceed in the Lou
isiana Court according to the rules of Chance
ry practice, as laid down hy the United States
Supreme Court. The district Judge will not
permit it. The Supreme Court say they have
no power to compel hun to conionn to m use
rules; and all that they can do is regularly to
reverse his decisions on the question of prac
tice, as often as it is brought up for j their ad
judication. They extremely, regret the dis
trict Judge's course they say it amounts m
some cases to a denial of a man's rights but
they are powerless. Sr. Lout Gazette.
