'iWe i have received I fromlr. John MacRae, Jr.
Treasnrer of the i Manchester Koad, a walking
stick, being' part of the cypres Xog which was ta
ken up from 12 feet below - the bed of t ho Great
Pee Dee, in July last This tog tpaf: found in the
way of sinking the cylinders, and caused a great
deal of labor and delay to get.it ont of the way.

MR. WALKER.
There was a deal of parade about this gentle--man's
going to China. lie required, the papers
say, a splendid steamer, at a cost of 3500,000, and
delayed his going till his notions of republican
-simplicity were gratified ; for, being a very princi
pal and a very leading democrat, he must bare a
vast deal of republican simplicity.
There has been an air of consequence and dis
play about this matter-'feally disgusting. One
would suppose that the meet important interests
in this great Republic, in connexion with China,
.depended on the persona talents and influence Of
3Jr. Walker and when it was at last ascertained
that he was too sick to go at all, some people
.seemed to think that all the "fat wai in the fire,"
unless some doctor would take away his pain.
Wo do not look upon this disappointment as a
public calamity. Except acme smartness in finan
cial matters, and expertness in figures, . e are at
a loss to conceive on what the idea is based that
he is either a great statesman or an able Diplo
matist. His speeches in London, about the time
of the Kossuth excitement and the revolutionary
mania in Europe, displayed neither sagacity nor
judgment but merely exhibited the ebullitions
of a romantic visionary destitute of acknowl
edge of mankind or of the character of the age
in which he lives a mere talking ' progressive'
The Administration can command 500 men as good
as he; for the China Embassy,
. INDIGNANT MR. GREELV.
: $The editor of the Trihune is exceedingly indig
nant at the interruption the late Women's Rights
Convention experienced, by persons who were in
cited to controvert their positions and "argufy
the topic with them." We suppose now that wo
men's supremacy is about to be established , the
"pantalooned mob" will be required to ,;learn in
silence." The strong minded and, we suppose,
strong armed women, should come up to the full
measure of rights, and cudgel the panlalooncry
when it is obstreperous.
The people did certainly behave badly, if they
acted as the Editor of the Tribune says they did.
But we fear be has spun his yam too long in this
case, as be always has in the article of "Cotton.?
Ia Connecticut the women are going ahead fine
ly. The Winsted Herald states that a lady of that
village called on a gentleman to pay a claim . she
bad against him, which, on his declining to. do,
produced a horse whip. The man retreated .into
a store and brought out two friends, but 'she
whanged away and licked 'em all.
APT SCHOLARS.
Some of our western Editors are letting' the
world see that they arc apt scholars, in adopting
the teachings of some of our northern cojitrover
salists, in politics and other matters. " We do not
recollect that the presses of North Carolina: ever
presented such a show of angty personalities. If
this sort of discussion has any e fleet in advancing
the truth, we are much mistaken. -;It only keeps
the public throat in titillation, fot laugh, at one
or both of ihe litigants. Why dout the Editors
follow good examples? For ..example that of
the meek and inoffensive StandkrZ at Raleigh 1
There's a model for you, "Bboys."

, , - - GOOD SENSE. - -.
Good sense is a valuable commodity", though it
is certaiO the market is" not always overstocked
with it. Wo think the following from X, a corres
pondent of the Baltimore Sun, a fair sample :
Some .apprebensions are beginning to be felt
about the affairs of Mexico and Cuba, and the fil
ibnsterism, which has lately formed a new mouth
piece This country, of all others in the world,
can assuredly best afford to wait until the fruit is
ripe, without wasting in boyhood the strength of
the full grown man. We grow stronger, while the
rest of the world grows weaker by time. The
world was not made in a day, neither need tb;
whole continent and the West India Islands bo
annexed to the United States ip.Vroediately. It
were a pity to have nothing for jwstcrity to do.
NEGRO EMANCIPATION.
Mr. Wood, our new Consul at Valparaiso, touch,
ed at Jamaica on his way out. He describes the
Emancipation of the negroes in that Island, as
having been the ruin both of blacks and' whites
We make the following extracts from his letter to j
a friend in Ohio :
" In tho harbor were not a dozen fhips of all
nations-, no business was doing, and every thing
yon heard spoken was in the language of com
plaint. Since the blacks have been liberated
they have become indolent, insolent, degraded,
and dishonest. They are a rude, 'beastly set of
vagabonds, lying naked about the streets, as filthy
as the Hottentots, and I believe worse.
"On getting to the wharf, the first thing, the
blacks of both sexes, in great Humbers, perfectly
naked, came swimming about the boat, and would
dive for small pieces of coin that were thrown
them by the passengers. These they would catch
in the water or pick from the bottom. Thpy nev
er fail, though the water is twenty foot deep.
" The harbor of Kingston is spacious and secure.
The city is old and in ruins. On entering it the
stranger is annoyed to death by the black beg
gars at every step, nnrt you must otten snow tneni
your pistols or an uplifted cane to rid yourself of;
their importunities.
HiSI hope the abolition of slavery every where
will not be attended with the same consequences
that it has in Jamaica to ruin both black and
white; but no one visits Jamaica without the
most thorough conviction that the liberation of
ho slave has spoiled him and ruined his master.
j have, however, time for no more comments on
4be subject."
, THE STAR,
i The Editor of the Raleigh Star, in his issue of
Wednesday list, says: " Encouraged by the flat
tering commendation of the reading public since
hiS connection with the press, and prompted by
the suggestions of friends whose judgment he res
pects proposes to publish the North Carolina
Starjhreo times a week ; the Grst No. to be issued
about the 1st of January. 18u t.
"The-recenl evidences of thrift and improve

conductors of the public press be behind in this

full 6hare in the labor necessary to such a result.'
' EXTRA PAY TO SEAMEN.
The Secretary of the Navy announces that ad
ditional cleiical force has been employed in the
Navy Agent's Department, and the delay that has
heretofore ocenrre d in the payment of seamen's
claims for extra allowance will be obviated.
nevolutloiiary Troubles in Montevideo.
Captain Kennedy, of the schr. II. A. Barling, of
Baltimore, at Norfolk, in 32 days from Montevid
eo, informs the Beacon, that the calm which had
prevnilcd for some time mst between the conten
dingparties was broken in upon on the 18th July,
by T contest between a party of Oribe's tioops
(white,) and tho negroes under Pacheao, who ,
holds the city. The 18ih was the anniversary ofj
Argentine independence, and it was intended to j
celebrate the occasion by a grand military, civic
and religious display. The negro troops, some 800 j
in number, were drawn up on the Plaza in front
of the Cathedral, preparatory to forming proces
sion, when some 400 of Oribe's troops, from the
town of La Union, marched up and gave three
"vivas" for Oribe. Upon this tho blacks fired
upon them, killing some 15, and turned the re
mainder out of the citj- at the point of the bayo
net. Great excitement was tho consequence, as
it was thought that Oribe would attack the city ;
but nothing had been done up to the 27th, when
the schooner sailed. All was then quiet.
Santa Anna, it appears, when he left his resi
dence to resume his dictatorship of Mexico, had
no preat confidence in the stability of his power,
for he left bis home in Tubaco, with all its furni
ture, cockpits, and every thing ready to receive
him at a moment's warning. A personal friend of
the oue-leggcd hero thinks nothing will soften
him towards the United States but a good round
sum, some millions in amount. Ho thinks the
United States will have trouble with him.
THE FIRST RAILROAD IN TEXAS.
Texas papers of the 2d inst., announce that

EXCITEMENT AT CINCINNATI.
A novel excitement has just sprung up in Cin
cinnati. Some of the market people, both farm
ers and hucksters, have been arrested, fined and
imprisoned, under a city ordinance, for continu
ing the system of forestalling, by which the pri
ces of domestic produce arc greatly raised on the
citizens. The farmers have been charged with
wholesaling the products of their farms during
market hours to hucksters, and the latter with
buying up all of certain articles, so as to com
mand whatever rates they choose to demand in
retailing them. The arrests led to the holding of
a large indignation meeting of farmers last week
at which they resolved to vote for no man for the
legislature who would not pledge himself, in wri
ting, to vote to deprive every city and town in the
State of the power to pass any such ordinance as
the one now in force in Cincinnati, and also in fa
vor of repealing the law creating the Cincinnati
police court, which imposed the fines.
