WARRENT ON MALE ACADEMY.
The attention of the reader is invited to the Ad
vertisement of Mr. R. A. Ezell, in this paper, one '
of the most experienced and successful Teachers of
Boys in the State; and, besides this, his location,
Warrenton, cannot be exceeded in point of health.
THE PROSPECT.
The Whig party, every where, seems now sensi
ble of its power. Confidence in their own strength,
the only thing wanting to ensure success, is now tho
roughly established, and two years hence, instead of
finding them listless and spiritless, they will be found
united and irresistible. It Is apparent that the friends
of the Administration, however they may whistle to
keep their courage up, are sensible of their waning
prospects, and that the disposition of the next Presi
dency is in the hands of the Whigs,
THE TOFUTAK" VOTE.

the place of tho Hon. Thom as Clayton, whose term
expires on the 4th of March next.
WILMINGTON RAIL ROAD.
We learn that tho annual meeting of the Stock
holders of the Wilmington Rail Road Company, held
list Friday, was unusually well attended. Hon.
Richard Hines, of this City, represented the State's
interest in the meeting. We have heard none of the
details of the meeting, but understand that General
Alexander McRae was elected President of the
Company, vice Ex-Governor Di diey, who declined
a re-election to the office, which he has filled with
such sigual ability.
FRESCO" PAINTING. -
Mr. Henrt KaYton, who brings most flattering
letters of recommendation from Norfolk, where he
was located, is prepared to execute at his residence
on Fayetteville Street, in this City, Portraits and
M matures in the fresco style style, which gives
enduring freshness and brilliancy. Specimens may
be seen by such as are disposed, either to admire the
performance of the Artist, or to employ his pencil.
We subjoin a notice Of one of Kayton's Pictures,
from that admirable paper, the " Baltimore Sun."
"Portrait of Judge Brice Happening in the
Office of the Clerk of the City Court on Saturday.
we observed over the mantel piece an admirably exe
cuted Portrait of bis Honor Judge Brice, recently
from the pencil of Kayton, done in fresco, and re
presenting the expression of the features, and every
characteristic of the face, with life-like and striking
accuracy. The venerable Judge ia presented to the
eye in a farailar position, the forehead reposing upon
the first two attenuated fingers of the Wft hand, and
we believe there's not a knave in town but would
identify 'he likeness in a moment. The disposition

test of centuries, has been lately, very successfully
brought iuto use for Portraits." '

ARREST ESCAPE.
Parker Comw, who ran away with Mr. Hunt's
wife from Guilford, wasrrested In Columbia, S. C.
last week, and placed under the charge of an Officer
to be carried back to Greensboro'. He made hie es
cape, however, from the Officer, about 63 miles from
Columbia ; or, what ia more probable, bribed him.
He had a large sum of money, and offered the Inten-
dant of Colombia 150 to let him off.
A SMALL SIGN.
New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio, arc the three
imperial States of the Union. They have a popula
tion of nearly six millions, efect seventy-nine mem
bers to the lower House of Congress, and are enti
tled to eighty-live Electoral votes. They must, there
fore, always exercise a controlling influence in the
National Elections. Within a short time past, theso
three magnificent States have proclaimed their devo
tion to the measures of the Whig party It certain
ly is a significant sign of the times.

THE REVOLUTION IN NEW YORK.
Speculating upon the moral and political causes
to which the results of the recent election in the
Empire State are attributable, the "New York Com
mercial Advertiser" says:
- " We have not the least doubt that the Mexican
war has contributed its share to the result. There
is dissatisfaction with this war among thinking men
of all parties. They are not convinced that it was
necessary in its inception; they cannot approve of
its management ; they are uneasy at its ruinous ex
pense; and, above all, they look forward with anx
ious eyes to its consequences to the movements that
shall follow tho restoration of peace. They believe,
as we do, that the conduct of the national affairs two
years hence perhaps sooner, perhaps later when
peace is restored, will involve questions of the most
momentous interest ; and they are not willing that
the hands to which this conduct must be entrusted
shall be the same that have brought the country to
its present condition. Under this aspect, tho defeat
of Mr. Wright and the Democratic party in this
State is but an incident of popular distrust for the
Democratic party throughout the Union."
THE ARMY NEWS.
The following extract from the l; New Orleans
Times," confirms the important intelligence pub
lished by us in a Postscript, last week :
From Col. Davis, we learn that the Mexicans
have totally evacuated the whole country this side of
San Luis Poteei. The information has been derived
from so many sources that there is now no doubt of
this fact. They left behind some forty dragoons to
destroy the fortifications that had been constructed at
Los Muertos, a naturally strong and difficult pass on
the road to Saltillo, and about five or six miles be
yond the Rinconada. They have also dismantled
Saltillo, destroying whatever might be of use to our
army, and which they could not take away. Thus
there is nothing now left for Gen. Taylor to conquer.
but a barren region of rugged mountains and thirsty
plains, affording neither water nor provisions for the
subsistence of man or beast, over a distance of two or
three hundred miles to San Luis PotosL If, as has
been said, Gen. Taylor hns orders to march upon San
Lais Potosi, so as to reach that City by the end of
November, the question arises how he is to era verse
such a country, as he will have to do, by a forced
march at the rate of fifteen or twenty miles per dayl
The only water on this route is in the Mexican
ranks, which will doubtless be all broken up as the
enemy retires. To carry water sufficient to save his
army and teams from suffering, would probably re
quire more horses, mules and oxen than are now in
the army, all of which are required for tho transpor
tation of the necessary stores an1 munitions. In
making this retreat, the enemy have doubtless adopt
ed a wise policy, leaving behind them a far more
formidable enemy tor Gen. Taylor to encounter (vir
this march) than he eoskl ever find in their own
arms and fortified (owns.
This policy has questionably been dictated by
the sagacity of Santa Anna, It is stated, en good
authority, that he had sent orders to Ampudia to
evacuate Monterey, and all other places this side of
the mountains, but that those orders wtra net re
ceived till after the battle. , , v f
After leaving the troop necentary to garrison
Monterey, Saltillo and other towns, Gen. Taylor
will only hare an army ef about 6000 men with
which to penetrate into tho heart of the enemy's
eountrr. and far beyond the reach of any .reserve
upon which ho might fall back for support in ease of
neeensity. Koch we believe is a correct accoant of
ta jaresent position and prospects of our army, as
derived from good authority. Gen. Ampodia has
been superseded in command, but the name of his
successor is not renmnbertd.
