Bbowm & Andebson, Jewellers of this town, in tended as a prise for the best shot,, in the Compa ny of German Volunteers. The trial conies off on Monday, 2d of May. The Medal is a beautiful piece of workmanship, with Tery appropriate de signs. On one side the Coat of Arms of the 8tate of North Carolina, and on the reverse a sol dier in fall uniform, bearing the C 8,Flagt at rest ; with a view In Abe back ground 'of tent encampment. In a half oral circle over tj&ese de signs, are the words : "Presented by th Officers or the German Volunteers, to the best shot, l BOX HANDSOME HARNESS Among a lot of handsome harness, which we noticed a tew days ago, at the Manufactory of oar neighbor Cohoust, north side of markef street, sign of the Saddle, we saw a very finely finished Bnggy Harness, made in his establishment which would do credit to any workmen North or South. The price, too, we believe,- does not exceedfwhat would be charged elsewhere, for an article of such superior quality all of which goes to provethat, we need not send abroad for articles of this sort, . unless we do it with "malice aforethought't ' , . WHIG PflTSIC AT A DISCOUNT. ' V .' We learn that our worthy neighbor Dr.Haaws has been removed from the station of Port Physi cian. There is certainly no reason for this unless the physic the Dr. gives is suspected to be whig physic, the prescribing of which, cannot, of coarse,' be tolerated under a Democratic Administration. We admonish the new incumbent, whoever he . may be, not to buy of Whig Druggists, lest he be reported to Government. He hajd better pat an advertisement in the pa pets, that "the powers that be" may see he intends to do the clean thing. Said advertisement may run in this wise: - "Wan ted, by a democraticdoctor, some democratic phys ic, for the cure of democratic chills and fevers, democratic pleurasy, democratic etc oxc. ecc. to be prescribed to democratic seamen, who come Jto J democratic Wilmington, in democratic vessels ' . (lit, a 1nin fi Hnrprnmpnt ill wit it r "J - - that the appointment is in accordance with policy of the day, vis: "the best Intercstaof i. whole coantry." , WE STRIKE OUR COLORS. ' $ ' Othello's occupation's gone" in other words we are no longer the "publisher of the Ordersy Resolutions and Laws of Congress" because the term of oar office has expired, and because there will be no new appointment till the next meeting of Congress. Oar work is done ; and we beg leave most respectfully to direct the attention of the Secretary of State to the fact There are many sentences that rush into our mind, from the classics English and the classics Latin, applicable to tho present occasion. The good Book says, "put not yonr trust in Princes," which may be written without sinful variation, "Put not your trusfin Pierces." Well, we don't but who in contemplating this melancholy politi cal dispensation can help exclaiming, "Sic transit gloria mundi f Yes the glory has departed from the Commercial, and our neighbors of the Journal and the Free Press, are mutually quoting Shaks peare on this occasion, in tho place wherein the Bard saitb, "Come let me clutch thee." It is a pity that only one of these can get it, because the one that fails will be as mad as a Hornet, ram pant, or "pisin sarpint" conchant. The matter cannot be shared and parcelled out to the parties in this as in the case of the patronage of neigh bor Dobbin of the Navy Department, and others of our "Ulustrissimos." The ingratitude of Republics is " a circum stance," as every one knowcth. The President is not a bit of a party man be goes for the coan try. Well, then ought he not to appreciate all who go for the coantry, or desire to do so, party or no party 1 Most certainly he ought. And yet, would you believe it reader, Frank Pierce never sent us a Message, though Mr. Ashe came right from Washington, and fresh fromthe counsels and ceremonials of the new politieai creation. Alas, be is like one of old, "who remembered not Jo seph, bat forgat him." Oar ease is a melancholy one, that's a fact, and we felt half, inclined, in view of tho -'shadows, clouds and darkness" that rose toosr pained sen sations to say : "Pity the sorrows of a poor old man." But wo shan't do it. We will quote Bbakspeare, just as we did when a boy. He has an article that meets oar case, and thus it runn eth: .'. "Farewell a long farewell to all our greatness ! . We have ventured, "Like little wanton boys, that swim on bladders "The past two summers on a sea, of glory."- And so on. Bot there is another sentence which is pretty good, the import or which we guess wo. will study: - - .' . f- .' i0 " Be just and fear not! ' Let all the ends thou aimst at, be thy country's, 'Thy God'1n Truth's!" " -f ' . ; THE PRESIDENT. It is said that President Pierce is attending vigorously to the performance of bis official du ties, and daily promenading the streets of Wash ington..: We are pleased to- heap of the improved health of the President. This lashing the official back of the Whiggery, withso much vigor is a very pleasant and healthy exercise for His Ex ceHeBcy, it apnears The promenades, we dare say, afford an, agreeable- rolaxa. tion tthe arm that so ia'cesscntly. whirls the political Cat. 1 We guess, that after be baa cut op the back aforesaid, some of those who aro now'ebeek by jowl" with Bis Excellency, will feel tbo power of his muscles sohe will not be deprived of the means ot keep tog his blood ia circulation.

Lane, with the troops nnder bis command, to take, possession of the disputed territory, the Mexicans Immediately l occupied it with all the troops they could raise 100 regular troops -and 125 of the National Guard and sent off an express to Chihuahua for more. Subsequently, Gov, Lane called upon CoL Miles (formerly of Baltimore) to"susfaia him with the military of Fort Fillmore, which the Colonel declined to do, alleging, it. is said, that be bad instructions from Col. Sumner to refuse the application should it be made, "and also that ho doubted Gov. Lane's right to take Use territory in dispute. i ? ; ' Gov.' Lane concludes his Proclamation as' fol lows: ' " " , J r Now, therefore;as the United States have been wrongfully "deprived of the portion of territory in question, even should the Mexican Republic have a rightful claim to it, which is denied ; and so by the law of nations the United States is justly enti ;VT to exorcise jurisdiction over the same, and protect the inhabit antsnhereof in all their rights until the claim of the Mexican Republic shall be formally, recognized by tho United States ; and as the' probable time of the settlement of the boanf'y question is indefinitely postponed ; and the in ests of the.

And I'do hereby require all civil and military officers of the United States, and of the Territory of New Mexico, whom it may con cern, to execute the laws of the United States, and of the Territory of New Mexico, in and over the territory aforesaid, which' is provisionally at tacbed to, and made a part of the county of Dona Anna, in the Territory of .New Mexico. And to the end that there may be no misunder standing, on the part of the citizens of New Mexi CO as to the boundary line between the Territory of New Mexico and the State of Chihuahua, the true and well-known boundary between this State and Territory, as established by a decree of the Mexican Congress of July, 27 1824, and as deline ated upon Disturnell's treaty map, is hereby pro- ; i r y'y00 y estaDJisnea ; wtucn boundary line has point in the main channel of the Rio Gi-abdo, above the dam of the Aceqnia Madre, (across the Rio Grande,) and below Frontera, eight miles, more or less, north of the town of El Paso The said line to run from the Rio Grande west ward and then northwardly until it reaches the Rio Gaiafaccordingly to the provisions of the trea ty aforesaid. ' From New Orleans, we learn that on the 25th inst. Millard B. Fairvell, bearer of despatches from he United States Legation at Mexicoarrived on the steamer Texas, reports that on the 8th an ex press arrived at the city of Mexico, bringing news of the occupation of Mescada Valley, in Chihua hua, pythe Governor of New Mexico. This Intelligence created great surprise, and the determination was -expressed to drive out the Americans It tbe point of tbe bayonet. An armed force was orcfered to proceed 'to Chihuahua to re inforce tbe Mlxican General, and assist in expel ling Gen. Lan vi A delegation of the Mexican au thorities waited upon Judge Conkling, and made a solemn proteH against the whole proceeding. The utmost exc ement prevailed amongst all class es, and the rep! f of Gov.

Arrival of Two Steamers with Nearly Three Millions In Gold, and the California Mails Naw York, April 27th. The steamer Georgia, with the California mail and 234,000 in gold dust on freight, besides a large amount in . the hands of passengers, has arrived from Chagres, via Kingston and Havana. She brings nothing la ter from California. The steamer Uncle Sam also arrived here to-day from Aspinwall. She brings 450 passengers and $570,000 in gold, including $220,000 on freight. The Isthmus wa healthy and the crossing re markably good. The Uncle Sam left Kingston on the 21st. The yellow fever was raging considers bly, and several shipmasters bad .recently died. A Chinese Company, consisting of fifty perfor mers, is among the passengers. The whole amount of gold on fi eight aboard the Georgia is $2,000,000, whilst there is also a large amount in tbe bands of the passengers. The con signments in tha largest amounts are to the Am erican Exchange Bank, $600,000 ; Duncan & Sher man, 8200,000; Burgoyne & Plume, $200,000; Wells & Fargo, $113,000. A "Strike" up and a "Strike" down, in Salem. From a correspondent we learn that the Irish "lumpers" on the wharves, in Salem, a short time since, "struck" for higher wages. The employers aeceded to the demand. They followed this by a second strike, making the rate $2 per day. Agsin they struck for the ten hour system. This they obtained. Yesterday they made still another ad vance in wages, setting figures at 25 cents per hour, or $2,50 a day. The employers, regarding this series of "strikes," so rapid and audacious, as an imposition on justice, equality, and good nature, discharged every man. The places have been filled by off-duty seamen, residents of Salem. Boston Bee. Mr. J. R. Hind informs the London Times that on the Cth of March last a commet was discover ed at the Observatory at Rome which presents strong indications of indentity with that of 1654, one of tbe most minutely described commets re corded. Supposing these bodies indentical, the period of revolution will be 188 years, and the mean distance from the sun a little greater than that of the planet Neptune. This is undoubtedly the same commet which was discovered at the Observatory at Cambridge (Mass.) on tbe 8th of March. ARRIVAL OF THE HUMBOLDT. FOUR DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE. The steamer Humboldt arrived at New York on Tuesday from Southampton, which port she left on the 13th. Her dates from Liverpool are to the 12tb inst. She brings 117 passengers. The news from England is without interest, and tbe same may be said of France, Italy, Hungary, Dates from Constantinople to the 25th ult, state that affairs between Russia and Turkey were un settled and enveloped in mystery. Prince Mens- chikoff had demanded an audience with the Sul tan which the latter declined. Tho RnUan refused to negotiate upon certain questions until the arrival of the French and Eng lish Ambassadors. A French fleet was In Salami Bay. A correspondent of the London Times says that Russia was endeavoring to conclude a secret trea ty with Turkey, failing in which, Constantinople would be taken by a coup de main. The latest ac counts from Constantinople state that an English war steamer, three Russian dispatch vessel and a French steam frigate were lyingTa the harbor. A Turkish fleet was anchored off tbe Golden Horn, apparently making arrangements for a movement and another Turkish fleet was anchored off Alex- andretta. The Accident on the Chicago Railroad. AoRuir, Mich., April 26th. A gentleman just from tbe scene of the fearful collision, last night, between tbe Southern Michigan Express train and tbo Central Road Emigrant train, at the crossing, near Chicago, reports that there twenty dead bo dies when bo left, and additional deaths were con stantly occurring among the fifty or sixty others injured.7 The sufferers are mostly emigrants. ' " Chic co, April 27. Ffteen bodies of tbe dead were brought to the city this morning, from the scene of the late disaster, Daring the confusion incident upon the accident, the Galena mail was robbed of the bags for Boston and Albany. . From Bueuea Ayrea Treaty of Peace Con- " : -. 'eluded. Boston, April 26th.' The Boston Journal, by means of the recent arrival of the Peacock at Sa lem, has received letters of the very latest date from Buenos Ayres. They convey the intelligence that the-commissionera of tbe belligerent parties n o bad been appointed 'for tbe porpose of nego tiating, have at last concluded a treaty of peace, whicU was awaiting ratification by.

The Portage City Republican contains a portion of the trial of Edward Leahey (better known as the Monk of Latrappe) for the murder, by shoot ing, if ?Bernard Manleyv ;' The trial is before Judge Larabee. Leahey plead 'not guilty to the indictment. Francis Whiting testified that he saw the prisonerflre three shots, one at the deceased, which caused his death; and two at Abram Mort on.' The pistol was a revolver and two charges were left In it.' Leahey stated totbe witness that the murder was just, and that the Lord told him to do it. Manley lived about forty-five - minutes after the shot. The testimony, as far as it is pub lished, is conclusive as to tbe fact that Manley was shot by Leahey Tor aleged adultery with the wife of the latter. Daily Wisconsin.
