CAUTION. ,
Alady of thla town bad a few frlenda with ber
on Tuesday ETenlng lasti and a walk wai propo
sed. Before fearing the house, aha thought it
pradent to look after a child, 4 years old, left . in
charge of a negro girl, 14 years old, in the second
story. She found tha negro girl asleep', and the
child also asleep on a bed, with its band resting
on a candlestick placed on tha bed, also, in which
was a burning candle. . . The least movement on the
part of the child would hare enveloped tho bed
inflames. The shock which the perilous scene
gave to tha startled mother, was succeeded by a
fainting fit. We look upon this ercntaa oneof the
many that are singularly controlled by the good
ncaa of God and trust that it will aero as a cau
tion to parent, that they may avoid the terrible
consequences that might arise from tha careless
ncsa of servants baring children in charge. One
cannot think of tho dreadful fete the innocent
babe so narrowly escaped, without a shudder.
COMMISSIONERS OF NAVIGATION.
A meeting of the Commissioners of Navigation
was held at their office, on the 12th inst., when
tho following officers were elected for the present
year:

The Reenter states that the President of the
U. States has pardoned Thomas H. Burge, "who
haa been confined in tho Raleigh jail fori some
time past, and sentenced to imprisonment Tor ten
years, for robbing the mailin Granville couuiy
some time during the last year. ,
"v ' ' GEN. SAUNDERS.
The Editor of the Standard says he is author!
zed by Gen. Saunders, to deny the allegations con
tamed ia an Editorial of tha Journal of this place,
and which was copied in; TV Commercial. More
over, that the said Gen. Saunders "feels no sur
prise at tha gratification manifested by the Editor
of Vtt Commercial in copyiag the article as evln
clng "the recreancy of a Democratic Leader to the
interests of his native 8tate,n ha does feel surpri
sed that an article ao illiberal and unjust should
have emanated .firW a, democratic paper of the
' character of ,tU Jouf nat"j$fl
So far as the performance of a duty may be
calledagratilicationwearagratifled in such
, cases,, It is no "'gretiflcationH to us, however,
that any son of North Carolina should be recre
ant to her Interest in thf nmttei of internal im-
provemept and our whole course shows this we
hire aver been on the side of internal improve
ments, without variableness or change, and hare
ever, bad a good word for all men of an parties
ho sustained that cause. So it will ba difficult
for iGen. Saunders so find premises for his conclu
sion that wa ware "gratified" to find him recre
ant,
What we stated, was given on the authority of
a Tress of his own party, the Editors of which
" are as much entitled, in our view, to credence and
- respecfin all their assertions, as is Gen. Saunders
lhongh himself and partisans way be amazed
; . at Aur temerity, in thus speaking.
"When Gen. Bacndee clears himself of the in
putatiOB, by something a little better than the as
sertion of a practised politician, or the ipe dixit

Just to to think of it I The Burleighs, and in
breeches too ; walking leisurely and talking with
Abby and tha rest. Thh certainly was a remark
able incident,
On the whole, we cannot believe these people
areata any other sentiment than disgust, even
within the range of their operations.1 There Is
so much vulgarity, indecency and Immorality in
all their doings, we must conclude that no resptc
tahle people associate with them or countenance
them. The unprincipled, the fanatical, . t 'Wy
and tho Ignorant make up tlie sum , of Jhelr con
gregations, ii.-" . .
APPLICATION OF WORDS.
Wa suppose that great men may make what ap
plication of words they please, on account of their
political standing.' W evwerc struck with the
beauty of this license, from somo expressions
used by the Standard as the language -of Gen.
Saunders, ,8caking of our neighbors of the
tonal he eharges them witli making a "vindic
tive and Illiberal" attack, while at the same time
he safr they have beun "grossly mi&d." We
opine that there must be something wilful in be
ing vindictive and illiberal. When Editors are
misled the guilt is chargeable to those who pus-
led thorn. If the Editors of the Journal bare
been misled as to Iroattcrs of fact and the
meaning of words, they should not be abused;
for In that case they are to be pitied, poor things
A DISPUTE.
There is a wetty little dispute between the
Editor of tho Register and the Editor of tho Stan
dard, as to who is Governor of North Carolina
The former Editor seems to be impressed with
the belief that while David S. Reid Is Governor
of the State, dejure, our friend Holden of the
Standard is Governor de facto. Tho Standard is
very indignant at the insinuation, ajid says he
not Governor, nor never will be. We think it ve
ry likely. Tho Standard propounds two incidents,
either of which is proof of who is Governor.
First By looking at the Election Returns of Au
gust last. Second: By finding David S. Reid at
his post We see how the error arose, in view of
these premises. As the fact of being in the Gov
ernor's Office is proof of being Governor, our
friend Gales has been led into the mistake by
wlnr Hoi.niN in that twsition. We guess the
matter will have to settle down m this wise: Mr.
Reid sits in his office to look the Governor pre
cisely and Mr. Holden stays there to act, when
called upon,' to settle political scruples of con
science. Perhaps, too, lie goes there to practice
gubernatorial attitudes and postures for what
he says aBout never being Governor, is all moon
shine. Friend Holden expects that omce during
the reign of the untcrrifled, which he now thinks
willl ast a long time. This Is, however, doubted
by many.

DREADFUL WHIRLWIND.
A most frightful whirlwind passed over a por

day afternoon between 2 and 3 o'clock in the day.
It seems to have taken its rise at Dunn's moun
tain, three miles South-East of this place, and
travelling in an Easterly direction, prostrated al
most every building fairly jn its path. Consider
able damage of this kind is reported to have
been done; and the destruction of timber, and
fences was complete. Even large stones wree
hurled from the places they had occupied since
creation niorn. It was fortunate that the track
was narrow sometimes not exceeding seventy-
five yards in width. Many persons who witness
ed its passage and its ravages, say that tree tops
and limbs of trees, fence rails, &c., whirled In
tho heavens like leaves and straw ; and accom
panied with a dense smoke, and a roar almost,
equal to thunder, formed a scene the most awfully
sublime. Its fury exhausted by the time it re t ch
ed the Y.adk'n river, some eight or ten miles from
the point of its rise. We have heard of no loss of
ife either man or beas,.

More Indian Murders. The Victoria Advo
cate learns frorq two citizens of that place, (French
men.) one of them na,rq'ed YUHmore, that a,bout
the 15th of last month, two persons were killed
by Indians, some three miles below San Patricio
There were four persons in the party surprised
and attacked by the savages two Americans and
two Mexicqq on. thejr wajr tq the Rio Grande,
to purchase stock. One American and one Mex
ican fell at the first fire of the Indians, pierced
with arrows, and the other two of the party were
wounded at the same time, but not so badly but
that they were able to make snch resistance as
to put the savages to flight, not however, tjll they
had succeeded in driving off a mare valued at
$100. This animal, howevei, by some means cs
caped from her captors, aud was recovered ou the
following day.
Only four Indians were seen, but it is supposed
; there were about fifteen in the party. One of
them ventured boldly uto (he town of San Pat
ricia and succeeded in capturing a valuable hoise
belonging to Mr. Carrigon attempted to repel the
intruder by discharging a "five-shooter" at him
but unfortunately, the caps exploded, aud he was
comyelled to retreat, the Indians followjng him up
with a shuwev of arrows.
ine party surprised, and two ol whom were
killed, are supposed to be from the Colorado.
The American that was fatally shot, exclaimed as
befell: "0' my poor wife and children!" which
circumstance leads tq tie belief that be had a
family. He bad a belt around him, containing
$1800 in gold. The other American, also had
S100Q n gold, secreted in the same way. ut the
savages seemed more intent upon the acquisition
of horses than gold or even of scalps, for on this
occasion they left victims without any other traces
of their barbarity than the wounds inflicted by
the arrows by which they were transfixed.

are far behind the graceles gamm of Paris In all
that, pertains to juvenile precocity ana rascality.
A correspondent of the Courlor des Etats Unis
tells of the recent meeting of a couple of

;"True enough, very fine," replied the .other
Steamer Chartered by Goveruoieitf for the
South.
Yonterirsy a despatch Wft8 received her from
Washington, giving orders to chatter a steamer
for the service of the Government, for not less
than twenty days, nor more than ninety days, to
cruise from this port to Florida. It js believed
that ;the destination js Chavleatop, and that the
despatch baa reference to tbe secession la the
South. The Brother Jonathan, North America,
and other steamers were in contemplation, but
finally the Crescent City was fixed upon. She is
to sail with sealed orders, and not to be more
than 600 miles at any time from -land- She Is
pot to .carry jnore than ,700 men.craW.
