Eden ton (jyThe Fall Term of the Superior Court for this county was held in this place last week. Judge iVorwood presiding. Maj. James W.

The following statement Ins been handed to us for publication, showing the expen ditures for the poor of this county, for several years previous and subsequent to the erection of the Poor house: From Easter 1823 to Easter 182 I, Si 922 85 1821 1825 1S2G 1827 1828 i 1825, 1SJ5 35 S2G, 1481. 79 IS27, 16S9 35 l2S, 1S09 90 1829, 1874 24 After the Poor house was erected.

So far, we learn, the ground has generally been found favorable. It is uncertain what precise direction the road will take in leaving this neighborhood. Every exer tion will be made by Mr. Rawle, the En gineer employed by the State, to accom plish the survey of the proposed route in due season, that the stockholders and the public may have the subject fully be- luru mem tins winter. Raleigh Reg, Central rail road. This important subject seems to be gliding into oblivion with all the rapidity which marks the downfall of North Carolina's favorite schemes. As the Persians say of them selves, ve are a great people;' but unfor tunately for our prosperity, our greatness evaporates in volumcsof resolutions, and we leave to posterity the honor of com pleting our vast designs. Wc have near ly ceased to hope on the subject of this road; and unless the Legislature shall promote it in the approaching session, we must endeavor to reconcile or feel ings to our usual downhill course. Some apology for the lukewarmncss of our citi zens is undoubtedly to be found in their limited means, but as the contemplated work would add to the prosperity of the whole State, the Stale should undertake :t, and this apology will not apply to the .Legislature. If they have not an over flowing treasury, their credit is good: and this is certainly one of the few cases in which it would be profitable to get into jf"- , Resolutions,' we think it highly expedient that the people should instruct their Re presentatives on this subject before the meeting ot tlie Legislature. Ncicbcrn Sentinel. Tennessee. An extra session of the Legislature of this State, convened on the 3d inst. for the purpose of laying off me estate into Electoral and Congres sional districts under the last census. It is expected they will also elect a U. S. . .... senator, and probably have a bill for the establishment of a new Bank bofnm them. Ral. Reg. Termination of the Indian War. The Missouri Republican of the 28th ult. mentions the arrival of the Wm. Wallace at that port from Galena, with intelli gence confirming the report of an en gagement between a party of Sioux In dians and the hostile band of Sacs and Foxes. The victory was a most decisive one; 200 of them being killed, and 40 ta ken prisoners. Only about 70 warriors escaped. Among the prisoners, is Na-o-pe-pe, the second in command in all the enterprizes against the whites, and the celebrated Prophet. Black Hawk, it is said by the prisoners, was wounded by a shot from the steamboat Warrior, in the action at the crossing of the Mississippi, and died three days afterwards. l he Salisbury Carolinian says: Gen Atkinson, it appears, has conducted -this war with great energy and skill. He is a native of this State, and has relations lTlUnd.rSlaind in Gui,for(J ' RockK ham, where he was raised. Glorious news from the West. In Kentuc ky, eight of the Congressional districts gave ma jorities for the Jackson candidate for Governor, and four gave majorities for the Clay candidate. In Illinois, Messrs. Duncan, Casey and Slade, nil friends of the Administration, have been elec ted to Congress. In Missouri, the Jackson candidates for Con gress, for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, &c. have been elected. In Indiana, it is said, a decided majority of Jackson men have been elected 1o the Legislature an event which has never before occurred. The elections for State officers will shortly commence in the Northern and Eastern States, and wc doubt not will exhibit an equally grali fvinjr result to the friends of the Administration. The Cholera. No new cases are re ported in the last Elizabeth City papers wc nrcjeft to infer, therefore, that that place is at present exempt from the dis ease. We know of no other place in this State, where any cases exist. In Norfolk, Portsmouth and Suflolk, both the disease and alarm have subsi ded. Several cases had occurred at For tress Monroe, Hampton and Smithfield, but the disease is said to be rapidly on the decline. At Smithfield, the mortali ty has been unprecedented for the num ber of inhabitants from the 24th Aug. to the 9th Sept. there were 26 deaths by Cholera population, about 400. At Richmond, on the 8th inst. there was one death by Cholera up to the 11th, however, no other case occurred. At Harper's- Ferry, and several other places in the interior of Virginia, a num ber of cases have occurred. In Washington City, it is still ragino with violence- for the 24 hours ending on the 10th inst. there were 43 new cases and 13 deaths reported on the 11th, 29 cases and 6 deaths. Several cases of Oholera had also occurred at George town and Alexandria, D. C. In Baltimore, for the week endin 10th inst. there were reported 228 deaths by Cholera. The disease, however, is sup posed to be on the decline. It has also appeared in several villages in Maryland. In I hiladelphia and New York, the Boards of Health have discontinued their reports, the disease having almost wholly disappeared. J We are gratified to perceive, also, that the pestilence has abated, or is abating m almost all the towns and villages to the north, where it has unhappily prevailed. FOR THE FREE PRESS. following resolutions were introduced by Col. Iiezekiah G. Spruill, and adopted: . 1st. Resolved, That we a portion of the freemen of the county of Tyrrell, do highly .approve of the leading measures of the present Administration of the Fe deral Government, and consider at this peculiar juncture of our affairs, the re election of Andrew Jackson to the Presi dency as.indissolubly connected with ih0 happiness and prosperity of the Confe deracy. 2d. Resolved, That we cordially a p. prove of the nomination of ANDREW JACKSON as President, and MARTIN VAN BUREN as Vice President of th0 United States, and that we will cheerful ly co-operate with our fellow citizens, (entertaining the same creed,) in the use of all honorable means to secure their election. 3d. Resolved, That it is a subject of unfeigned regrft to this meeting, that schisms and divisions have arisen in the Jackson republican ranks in relation to the Vice Presidency, and they fearfully apprehend that without unity anil concert of action in the Jackson ranks, the inevi table effect will be the elevation of John Sergeant (the opposition candidate) to that high and responsible station. 4th. Resolved, That Martin Van Buren presents high claims to the office of Vice President, because he is possessed of ta lents of the highest order because of his unwavering attachment to the republican party because of his undeviating devo tion to the rights of the States because of the brilliant services that he has ren dered his conntry because he has been nominated by a Convention of delegates assembled at Baltimore and because he has been proscribed and attempted to be disgraced by rival and factious Senators, in rejecting his nomination as Minister to London. 5th. Bcsolved, That this meeting do disapprove, and recommend unanimous ly to the several counties in the district to disapprove the nomination of Joseph B. Ilinton, Esq. of Beaufort, as Elector for this district, and respectfully recom mend to the support of the people, our worthy and respected fellow citizen, Epiiralm Mann, Esq. On motion, resolved that a committee of vigilance be appointed, and that the committee consist of John B. Beasley, Iiezekiah G. Spruill, Charles M'Clees, Samuel Rogers, and Joseph Wynne, Jr. On motion, resolved that the proceed ings of this meeting be signed by the Chairman and Secretary, and that the Editors of the following papers be re quested to give them an insertion the Edenton Miscellany, Elizabeth City Star, No. Ca. Advocate, Tarborough Free Press, Washington Union, andNo. Ca. Constitutionalist, and that all the Edi tors in the State friendly to the object of the resolutions, be requested to give them an insertion in their papers. The meeting adjourned, sine die. Z. TARKINTON, Ch'n. C M'CLEES, Sec'y. Before the meeting adjourned, a gen tleman (a Clay man) suggested that the 4th resolution was not understood, and if so, was not carried but by a very few "--.uiuupon me resolution was read again, and on the question of its passage, it was carried without scarcely a dissenting voice. Jackson and Van Buren Electoral rKicl,ard Dobbs Spaight, Esq. of Nevvbern pledged to support the above ncket, has been appointed Elector for the Craven district, and Col. Robert Love or the Macon district. We hope soon to be able to announce the completion of the ticket and to publish it entire, toge ther with the address of theCentral Com mittee. Raleigh Con.
