1854. - " - .:, -
Messrs Editors Catawba Court week is
just over! Nothing occurred daring the
time, of much interest, except the address
of Judge Saunders, on the subject of,In
ternal improvements. It was one of the
ablest addresses of the kind,; that has been
delivered in the State. All were: highly
pleased and interested, y Our people are
alive to the "building of railroads. We had
a meeting to-day, in the Court House,
largely attended and ably addressed by J.
H. Crawford, in which it was resolved that
Catawba County can and will in her cor
porate capacity subscribe 100,000 to
the building f the Central extension ;
provided it runs through our County.
Twenty delegates appointed to attend the
railroad convention in Salisbury, on 1st
and 2d. I , think our county, individual
and corporate, will go 8125,000 to this
road. It is too late to give you the min
utes in full. ' "' Yours -&c.

COLLISION ON THE CENTRAL RAIL ROAD.
: We'-are -pained to state .that a dangerous
collision took place on the Eastern wing of
the Central Rail Road, about ten miles
from this place, on Tuesday j last. The
passenger train from Goldsbord, heavily
loaded with persons on their way to the
Fair, came into contact with a burthen tram
and locomotive.. The train had been Employ
ed in the construction of the road and was
proceeding towards Uie station for the pur
pose of making way for the passenger train;
Its. water gave out and it was forced; to
stop in a short curve. The engineer sent. a
negro on to warn the other tranlpf the ob
struction of the way, but the negro sat
down and fell asleep. The engineer of the
passenger trajn did not perceive the other,
until it was so near that it was impossible
to prevent a : collision.- He and . the Con
ductor dic( alt they could, .and just as the
two trains came together, the1 former jump
ed off and saved his life. . ' r
Several gentlemen,' and two negroes,
were much-injured, though none of them
seriously so. Ral Register. ;

.Chere has been a good deal of discussion
tKliCeadecture at various times as to- why
editors use the first. person plural in. their
J lucubrationSi mostly beginning their par
agraphs with "-Ire" f. borne people think
it is a mark of ostentation princes and ed
itors using tne we. oome thiuK one
thing and some another.,. OurDiabolus has
explained the matter satisfactorily, we think.
He says that the Editor merely the Senior
partner in a firm, and that writing in the
name of the firm in fact its mouth-piece-
he uses the plural pronoun correctly. The
little rascal says the editor and the devil
that is, himself the printing office devils
are always supposed to be, in partnership.

An official desDatch has been received
in this city from Sir George Simpson, Crov
ernor of HudsonTs Bay Territory, gmbg a
full and melancholly narration of the par
ticulars relative to the discovery by Indians
of tbe reniains of Sir John Franklin and
the company under his command, , who,
from the facts ascertained, it appears were
starved to death in . the Spring of; 1850,
near Fox River. Indeed, there is little
doubt of the correctness of the rstateaent,
as the Indians who brought the intelligence
have shown various articles belonging to
the expedition, some of which have Sir
John's name engraved thereon, and, also,
a written narrative of their sufferings left
by the last survivor. ' The ships were crush

The Iowa Legislature. It Is already
known -that the; Anti-Nebraska members
are largely in the majority in the lower
house of the Iowa Legislature, but it has
been asserted that the Senate is ;tied, or
has one Locofoco majority. Late Iowa
papers correct this last error. The iftibu
que Observer states that the Whig candi
date in the Polk Senatorial districi has the
certificate, which gives an Anti-Nebraska
majority of one ; and the Burlington Hawk
Eye mentions the return of a Whig Senator
from California who it was! supposed wotrW
be absent. So, that the majority will be
on the Whig side. " -j ! ' L

manufacture of sugar on the St. Paul's
river was rapidly increasing. Fine, ;large
cane fields were to be seen1 in every direc
tion, and during the current season it was
thought that fifty sugar farms ; Would be
laid out. Some of the new sugary already
landed at Monrovia is said to be' ofs finei
quality. Beef was very scarce at Monrovia, '
m consequence of the cattle trains from the
.interior having been intercepted by native
chiefs and the cattle stolen. This having
attracted the attention of the Government,
measures were being adopted to protect the

practice of more than twenty years, Dr. McLane
had attended innumerable patiencs afflicted with
every form of worm disease, ;and was induced to
apply all the energies of his mind to the discov
ery of a vermifuge, or worm destroyer, certain
in its effects ; the result of his labors is the Amep,
ican Worm Specific, now before the public, which
is perfectly safej and may be given alike tochil
dren of the most tender age, or to the aged adult;,
it purges mildly and subdues fever, and destroys
worms with invariable success. It l is- easy - of"
administration, and as if does not Contain mercury
in any form whatever, no restrictions are neces
sary with regard to drinking cold water, nor. is
it capable of doing the least injury to the tender--est
infant - An incredible number of, worms have
been expelled by this great vermifuge
