POLITICAL CAXCULATIONiwS
The Ra le ig h Standard says that Mr,Boo will
lead On. Dockeby by at least Five JPiousand
majority. We think our neighbor is not far out of
the way in regard to the figures, but has put them
on the xcrong tidt; by mistake, of course.
THE JOURNAL.
The Editor of the Journal by no means satis
fies us that the Northern Democracy is any way
reliable for Southern Rights, because 41 of that
larty voted for the Nebraska Bill in the House
and because some of the Democratic papers of
the North stand up fur the South. Those rotes
and that " standing up " are because it is an Ad
mmistr alien measure, and we may expect the
same thing to exist so long as the " s;oils " are
within the reach of the parties named. But what
is the course of the Northern Democratic con
stituency ? We have presented to our readers
their doings in several instances, in which censure
is heaped upon the Bill and all who sustained it,
and on the South into the bargain. If there were
any Northern Whigs who desired to sustain the
South, they could not do so consistently with par
ty drill which required opposition to the Admin
istration. We do not, however, place any reliance
upon the good feeling of Northern Whiggery.
any more than we do on the democracy. So soon
as the Democratic Party becomes extinct, as it
will on the expiration of the term of the present
Executive, we will find northern democrats an
gler new organizations opposing all the interests of
the South. Even Greei.y of the Tribune is with
the Democrats. He says : " Accepting and up
holding those ideas of Public Policy which used
to characterize the Whij party prior to 18o2, an
agreeing substantially with the Free Democratic
Party in all it aflirms in regard to Slavery, we
could wish to see a union of a'.l those members if
the two parties who believe resistance to the ex-
tension of Slave Territory a;id Slave Power the
most urgent public duty of our day. We should
Tjot much care whether those tints united were
-designated " Whig," " Free Democrat," or some
thing else; though wc think some simple name
like " Republican " would more fitly designate
those who had united to restore our Union to its
true mission of champion and promulgator of Lib
erty rather than propagandist of Slavery."
No man can be a friend to the South or the con
stitution, who affiliates with the Northern Democ
racy. We may be sure of that.
Iti relation to the affair of 1Q52, in which a
'Convention Resolution was offered by us and
adopted, and afterwards repudiated by another
meet'iDg : The Editor affects to think we are an
gry because ho alluded to it. Why should we be
angry 1 The meeting which rescinded the Reso
lution had no more jurisdiction over it, according
to all precedent and usage, than had the British
Parliament. The two meetings were distinct and
separate. The first had adjourned sine die before
the meeting of the second. Besides the Resolu
tion which was repudiated by the second meeting
-was adopted, almost word for word, by the Whig
Convention at Raleigh. So if we were weak
enough to be in any way affected by such trans
actions, we had cause f or exultation, and allusions
to them would produce pleasant sensations.
There were no unpleasant feelings on our part
at the time nor are we aware that any others
entertained such. We do not see what object the
Journal has in alluding to the subject. He proves
nothing but what is admitted. He places Fanner
Dock est in the right osition, when he intended
to put him in the wrong, and leaves the conclu
sion iu the shape of an unsolved problem, amount
ing to the wonderment if certain gentlemen will
tupport him for Governor.
THE KNOW NOTHINGS.
It is said there arc a number of persons of this
eociety in this town. We have but little doubt of
it, as they appear to be getting pretty well alorg
shore. We must be careful how we talk about
them, for they kick up a dust wherever they ap
pear. As to becoming a member of that Frater
nity, we say at once, nobody shall know nothing
about it, whether we do or not. Should we say
we would become a member, the first thing we
would hear would be the euphonical sentence,
'' stop my paper !'' And should we say we will
not, again comes, " stop my paper." No, no, we
shall " keep dark " about it, and leave folks to
" guess " as we do sometimes.
As there is much inquiry on the street relative
to the " faith and practice '' of the new order
and as we are aften asked about it though no
body has no business to ask us nothing about no
news, seeing we sell jtWe give below what may
be taken as the adopted tenets of the order :
It Repeal of all Naturalization Laws.
2. None but native Americans for ottice
Si A pure American Common School system.
4. War to the hilt, on Romanism.
5. Opposition, first and last, to the formation of

6. The advocacy of a sound, healthy, and safe
Nationality.
7. Hostility to all Papal influences, in whatever
form, and under whatever name.
8. American Institutions and American senti

4 The following axticleapears in tie New York
Cauritr nd Enquirer r
" The Nebraska outrage has settled for ever the
annexation of slave territory to this Union ; and
what is of far deeper import-JCSSs effectually
ented the admission at any time hereafter of
another slave State into the Union. When Mis
souri was admitted, there was a condition annex
ed, that slavery should not exist north of 36 deg.
80 min. ; but this condition has been repudiated
by the South. When Texas was admitted, there
was a condition annexed that there should be
three other slave States formed out of her terri
tory. Tke North will, in imitalient of the South,
repudiate this condition ; and we now tell our
Southern brethren to be prepared for the conse
quences. They have commenced the agitation ;
they have set the example of repudiating the
most sacred compacts, and of disregarding their
honorary engagements ; and just as certainly as
we now write, just so certain is it, that no new
slave State will ever be admitted into this Union,
and no slave Territory ever again be annexed to it.
" We are well aware that the truth is not pala
table and that we shall be abused for thus pro
claiming the naked truth, and call upon all men
of all parties to look it steadily iu the face. But
it our duty plainly to tell our Southern breth
ren, precisely what is destined to bo the inevita
ble fruit of their recent league of reckless and
unscrupulous political demagogues, to repeal a
compromise as sacred ns that of the Constitution
itself, and which constituted, in fact, the tenure
by which the institution of slavery exists in our
country. For ourselves, we should be content
with, and desire nothing more, than a repeal of
the Nebraska fraud, and the re-establishniei:t of
all the compromises; and wc shall never give our
support to any man for any place, who is not
pledged to such repeal. But we greatly fear that
the North will not be thus easily satisfied. Every
vestig' of the Compromise of 1850, and that con
nected with the admission of Texas, is destined to
be swept away, as certainly as has disappeared
the Missouri Compromise ; and this too, at no dis
tant day. In the Congress which assembles one
year from next December, there will not be ten
members from the North of Mason and Dixon's
line, who will not stand pledged to Use all the
means in their power, to punish the authors and
abettors of the Nebraska Outrage; and if the
Senate dare to resist the will of the people, then
we do not hesitate to predict, that every bill con
taining an appropriation for the support of go
vernment, will have appended to it a section re
pealing the Xebra.-ka Fraud."
0:i the above the Petersburg lntiUigrncT of
Tuesday has the following severe but just remarks:
" There, Southern men, you are m gistcrially told
by your master, the great General James Wat.-o:i
Webb, r.'hat your unpardonable impudence in as

Whigs and coolly and calmly relying on the Ruler
of Nations determine our duty to the country. If
it shall be seen tii.it the safety of the Union and
the South depends on a thorough union of all par
ties, do not let us higgle selfishly about ranks anil
positions, but look to our country, whose salvation
from impending ruin will amply reward every
good citizen. Should we pursue this course, and
the time come when patience on our part will
cease to be a virtue and resolve itself into gross
cow ardice, we shall present a united Southern jco
p!e, tolerating no lory in our uiid.-.t, and each man
ready in the words of the great American orator
to exclaim, " We vivsf fiaAt ! '
DEMOCRACY" OF THE NORTH.
The Philadelphia Register expounds the policy
of the Free Democracy of the North, as follows,
while speaking of the Canada Treaty:
" The dough-faced Pennsylvania which cave a
Dallas to the Union, and thus repealed the tarifl
of 1842, will even, we trust, learn a lesson that
will not soon be forgotten, and what she has now
to pay in aid of Southern policy, will, probably
contribute largely towards bringing her into the
democratic line of IS-jG. We need her help to
wards annexation, and the ratification of this trea-
tv will nrobablv secure that it will be siren. If
so, a great step will have been made tow ards the
curbing of that slave power which has for the
last thirty years rode rough shod over the north,
and the further addition of slave territory, or in
troduction of slave States will, from that time
forward, be at an end. The Provinces would fur
nish four States, giving eight Senators and five
and twenty or thirty representatives, and all of
them would be utterly hostile to the projects now
on foot, or that might at any time be set on foot
for the enlargement of territory on the Southern
border, unless occompanied with a distinct recog
nition of the fact that no future State could be
admitted into the Union in which chattel slavery
was not prohibited. The Fugitive Slave Law
would from that time cease to have an existence,
and we should then be in a fair way towards the
entire abolition of the system by which the coun
try has been so long disgraced."
' WHIGS IN DISGUISE."
It having been asserted that the Know Nothings
are Whigs iu disguise, the Baltimore Clipper re
marks ;
" The late charter election in Annapolis result
ed in the choice of a gentleman for Mayor who
was formerly a whig a majority of the City
Councils who were known as Democrats. Had the
Know Nothings acted solely with the whig, the
whole whig ticket would have been chosen. In
Westminster, the Mayor elect, Frank Shiver, Esq.
and a majority of the Council, were democrats
In Washington, it is true, the Mavor elect, Mr.
iowirs, was formerly i whig and equally true
that sixteen out of the thirty members of the citv
councils were democrats. In view of tl, ahovP
facts, we submit that any man who will hereafter
assert that the Know Nothing party, (if there be
whig partv in disrrnisp
sucn a party,) is the

rilXIBtTTER PREPARATIONS. '
The following from the Memphis Whig may be
true, every word of itj though we invite oar read
ers to receive U with aome grains of allowance,
and "inspend their opinions " for the present :
"From our exchanges and other sottrces we learn
that the ayailable funds at the command of the
friends of Cuban liberty amount to a little short of
one million of dollars, while eight steamers and
four sailing vessels have been placed at their dis
posal, and ean be made ready for sailing at twenty-four
hour's notice. They are also possessors of
between eighty thousand and ninety thousand
stand of arms, muskets and rifles inclusive. They
also have, if we are rightly informed, about ninety
fleldpieces, including cannons, howitzers, and
mortars, and are pretty well supplied with ammu
nition and side-arms.
"The resources have been placed in the hands
of a committee, who are to hold it until the time
set for the carving into execution of their project.
"The entire command of this expedition will be
vested in a gentleman of known ability and skill,
and whose name has already become a house
hold word with the cltfaens of the United States,
in consequence of his brilliant achievements and
successful manoeuvres while in command of a di
vision of the American army during the late war
between the United States and Mexico.
"The second in command will, in all probabili
ty he a "Northern man with Southern principles,"
and who was also a commander of a brigade in
the same war, and who has Mnee held the office of
Governor, and who, if we mistake not, still retains
a prominent civil position.
"Gen Gonzales, whose name has been associa
ted with this movement from the first, will with
out doubt be third in command.
Col. Wheat, Col. Pickett, Col. Bell, Major J.
A. Kelley, Major Moore, Capt. W. S. Edwards,
Capt. King, Capt. J. W. Dement, and Lieut. Frank
Ouilmette, all of whom were intimately connected
with th previous expedition, are, we are credibly
informed, exerting themselves in preparation for
the forthcoming struggle, and will "be in at the
death."'
"The number of nlen that have enrolled their
names and pledged their honor to support this
cause cannot be much less than fifty thousand,
and they are men who are well skilled in the use
of tire-arms, and who are determined to avenge
the cowardly massacre of Crittenden, Kerr, and
others at Havana on the 3d of August, 1851.
"This expedition will, in all probability, leave
the shores of the United States about the middle
of next month, and will land in the Vuelto Abajo
country, nnd thence proceed to Havana. There
will be perhaps ten thousand men throwitainto the
island the first effort, and immediately followed
by reinforcements until thirty or forty thousand
soldiers are there ; and with this force there can
not be much doubt as to which party will be Un
successful one.
CONGUfcSS.
Wsiinton, June '22.
In the Senate n bill to improve the naval ser
vice was further considered and passed, af?"r hav
ing been amended in several particulars. A bill
was also passed providing for the inspection of
steamboats on the Pacific coast. The bill propos
ing to pay a portion of iho creditors of the late
Republic of Texas was recommitted to the Com
mittee on Finance. The veto of the bill to grant
lands for the support of the indigent insane was
further debated. Mr. Toucey supported the Presi
dent'"view., und Mr, Bell spoke in support of the
bill iiiid in opposition to the veto. jThe Senate
then spent some time in Executive session.
In the House of Representative the following
message was received from .'he President of Uni
ted States, announcing that the Government of
Mexico has agreed to the amendment of the Sc:.
ate to the Gadsden treaty, and asking an ap
ropriation of ten millions of dollars to carry tV-J
seam into effect :
Washington-, June 20, 185 1.
To the House of Representatives :
I have received information that the Govern
ment of Mexico has agreed to the several amend
ments proposed by the Senate to the treaty be
tween the United States anil the Republic of Mex
ico, signed on the 30th of December last, and has
authorized its Envoy Extraordinary to this Gov
ernment to exchange the ratifications thereof.
The time within which the ratifications can be
exchanged will expire on the 30th instant,
There is a provision in the treaty lor the pay
ment by the United States to Mexico of the sum
of seven millions of dollars on the exchange of rati,
tifieations, and the further sum of three million
dollars w hen the boundaries of the Ceded territo
ry shall be settled.
To be enabled to comply with the stipulation
according to the terms of the treaty, relative to
the payment therein mentioned, it will be neces
sary that Congress should make an appropriation
of seven millions of do-llars for that purpose be
fore the 30th instant, and also the further sum of
three millions of dollars, to be paid when the
boundaries shall be established.
I therefore respectfully request that these sums
maybe put at the disposal of the Executive.
I herew ith transmit to the House of Represen
tatives a copy of the said treaty.

A GREAT EFFORT.
Theodore Parker, Samuel G. Howe, Wendell
Phillips, C. M. Ellis, aid other leading Abolition
ists are sendiug printed circulars to different
towns in New England, requesting that the usual
Fourth of July celebration be omitted and that
the bells be tolled instead. The Selectmen of
Marblehead, Massachusetts, having received one
of the circulars on Wednesday last, endorsed upon
it as follows ; "The Selectmen, after a glauce at
the infamous suggestions contained in the within
circular, have deemed it unworthy of notice, and
returned it to the source from whence it came."
ABOLITION VALOR.
The following from the Boston Transcript, is a
good evidence of the way the courage of aboli
tionists oor.es out at their fingers' ends wherjinvi
ted to come to the scratch :
Wrc learn from good authority that at a meeting
of the citizens of Abingdon, held in that town on
Tuesday evening last, a resolve was unanimously
adopted "to arm themselves, enter Boston, and
take the fugitive." When a call was made for
those who were ready and willing to back up the
resolution by enrolling their names, but three
citizens responded.
DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.
The Springfield (Teun.) Intelligencer records a
most distressing accident which occurred at Port
Royal Mills on Saturday week, resulting in the
death of three youn ladies. It seems that Mist
Adams, Miss Madden, and Miss Picket, hi com
pany with Mr. 8. Weatherford, were attempting
to cross Red river in a -canoe, when it struck a
snag and precipitated them all into the stream.
Every effort was made to save the young ladies,
but all in vain.

DESTRUCTIVE CONClLACillATlON.
Philadelphia, June 20.
Hill's extensive cotton and woolen mill, at the
corner of Jefferson and Mifflin streets, was entire
ly destroyed by fire this afternoon. It is said to
have originated from the friction of the machine
ry. About 300 persons, mainly females were em
ployed in the building, and the fire having cutoff
their retreat by the stair cases, many were lower
ed from the windows by ropes. A number were
hurt by falling, and it is reported that several per
ished in the flames.
Thefe were 1:10 operatives in the building when
the fire broke out, and the scene that ensued was
frightful. The females screamed frantically for
help, and commenced jumping from the windows.
But for the active efforts of the firemen with their
hooks and ladders all would have perished. Sev
eral .-.re missing, and are supposed to be burnt to
death.
The build ng as occupied by Messrs. fiivcr &
Houghton, Roc fe Phillips, and a Mr. lolt. Each
firm had a large stock of goods which were all
destroyed. The loss will reach 60,000. Thos.
Hill, br.-rf';er fir ihc fi.mief owner of the factory,
went to sleep in the building at 3 o'clock, and has
not been seen since. A man named Markla jump
ed from (he third rtory, and had both legs broken.
A female jumped from the fourth story, breaking
both her legs. A large number were severely
burned in theif hands and fnce.-
Three sisters named McBrNfe, were terribly
hurt, one let herself dtfwn by the rope hatchway
from the fourth story. Another rfrshed down the
burning stairway, and had her dress btfrnt off,
and flesh severely bnrnt. II is: reported that 15
are missing. Three lives are certainly lost -a man
and two young girls.
THE NORTH WILL ACQUIESCE.
The Petersburg LViIy Express has the follow
ing, relalire to the Resolutions of the N. Hamp
shire State Convention:
' The meeting declared unanimously if we are
not mi.-'akeii. that the President s action on this
suljtct. ha-' been acceptable to the New Hamp
shire pe."de ; 5ud this sentiment we are utrongly
inclined to b.'l'ev C, exists much more extensivi-l

as we predicted almost dead alieaOv, The North

of all I lie fury of urn -southern mid-men, u.?d

The fulfillment of the prediction in the above
rests with t:ie South. It depends on the number
of persona here who are willing to sacrifice the
country for the sake of parly names.
FORGER AND MGVMIST ARRESTED.
Mair-hal Gallagher, assisted by Deputy Sheriff
Whitney and a police officer from Davenport.
Iowa, arrested a man in Derea, last night, by the
name of John St. John, charged uiih having com
mitted a forgery of about six thousand dollars at
Davenport, some few weeks since. He was traced
east from Chicago, till his track was lost, but he
was ."nppfysed t9 be somewhere in northern Ohio
A clue was finally gained. Srd last night he was
arrested and brought to this city and thin morn
ing was started for Iowa.
This individual formerly ljvcd in this tJeinby
and about eight years since married into a re
spectable family by the namu of Daily. He re
mained with his wife til! after the birth of two
children, when he went west and did not return
till very recently. During his absence he mar
ried a lady in Davenport, and subsequently took
another wife ifi Indianapolis, making his third
spouse. Not long sJncc, the forgery, for which he
was arrested , was committed; he fled, and was
tracked up and found in Berea. and at the mo
ment of hit arrest was in bed w ith Lis first w ife.
The blow fell like a thunderbolt on her, this be
ii her first knowledge of the base nd criirinal
conduct of her hnsbsnd. SJie smi her family are
said to be highly respectable peopfe, and the
blow will fall upon them with crushing effect
About five thousand dollars iu cash was fouod ie
St. John's possession, also two elegant gold watch
es. He has probably gorws where he w ill be duly
punished for his nrfstk-eds. This will be bad
news for the two wives yet t hear it.

THE CHOLERA.
Dr. J. P. Hobbs, of Memphis, has addressed a
letter to the Mayor of Nashville, Tennessee, in
which be states that by the nsc of cistern water
entirely and exclusively the cholera will disap
pear and never return. The doctor says that
this is known to him by analysis, and by an ex
perience of twenty four years. The editor of the
Nashville Gazette says that from his own observa
tions in the year 1849, when the cholera was in
its worst stages, it was admitted by those best ac
quainted with the disease that those who used
rain water where the disease was most prevalent
were free from it.
PUNISHMENT OF DUELLISTS.
The Louisville (Ky.) Courier states that Messrs.
Pepper and Carlisle, the two gentlemen from
Woodford who were concerned in challenging Mr.
Purley, in Lebanon, during last fall, appeared to
answer a prosecution of the Commonwealth
against them at the present session of the Marion
Circuit Court The gentlemen confessed judg
ment without going into a trial, and were fined
$500 each and. disfranchised for seven, years.
THE IRISH EXODUS.
The Irish journals are largely occupied with
details of the emigration movement. Thousands
of the natives Of the soil were gathering together
their little wordly property and preparing to de
part either for the United States or Australia.
The Athlonc Sentinel says that "every day the
railway station is crftwded with iiersons proceed
ing to America." The- Dundalk Democrat says
that "every boat that leaves the quays carries off
nuntbers of persons from that and the adjoining
counties on their way to the United States, the
passage money in most cases being paid on the
American side of the Atlantic." The Tuam Her
ald notices the departure of three hundred emi
grants, all within a fortnight, and all destined for
the United States. The Waterford News also
chronicles the departure of two steamers, both of
them crowded with adventurers for America.
The Galway Packet says that emigration to the
United States is on the increase, and that "before
the end of the year Ireland w ill be literally deser
ted, and the silence and desolation which now
brood over Connemara will be visible in the more
populous districts of the country." The Sligo
Chronicle says that the "continuance of the rage
for leaving Ireland is one of the extraordinary
features of the times, and is wholly inexplicable
when we consider the present prosperous state of
the country aud the accounts continually received
of the sad disappointments experienced by thou
sands w ho were happy and comfortable at home'
SCENE IN A COURT ROOM.
The party of slaves who attempted to escape
from Kentucky, ohC day last f celt, were captured
through the instrumentality of another negro, who
gave information as to their whereabouts, to gain
the reward offered fbr their recovery. Upon be
ing taken before the U. S. Commissioner, the fol
lowing scene occurred :
While iu the Court room, the claimant of the
old man, Sbadriich, asked him : 'Why did you run
auy 1 You are as well clothed as I be, have al
ways been a well fed, and your mistress ha? al
ways treated you as well as she has me.' (The
master and Mare were clothed precisely alike, in
Kentucky hottiesptin )
Shadiach repliid: 'Vou have always treated
me well, but my wife and boys belonged to an
other nun and I was told they weie all sold, to
be cai red off. That is the reason why I run away
I wanted to save th -m. You and mistress always
used me well.'
The master asked who told him his family were
sold.

DUNCAN K. McRAE, Es4.
Mr. McRae, the American Consul at Paris, was
recently presented to the Emperor, being received
iu plain dress.
The numerous friends of Kir. McRae in this
Slate will be pleased to learn theft hrs health is
excellent. His family joined him some months
since in Paris. His dignified bearing aa4 suavity
of .manners, together with his knowledge of pub
lic ailjirs have given him marked influence in his
sphere; while his courtesies nnd attentions hive
been such as to w!."1 for him the warm regard of
Americans in Paris lb
A WOMAN OF PLUCK:.
We overheard, says the St. Louis ITcrold, a
short confab in the st reet yesterday, which was
highly edifying. A gentleman was standing Ci
the corner, when a lady dressed in black approach
ed hira, and said in an angry voice:
'If yon follow me any further, I II serve you
worse than Mrs. Baker did Hoffman !'
The gent turned pale at the awful threat
thinking, no doubt, cf the first assault npon Hoff
man and stammered out some sort of apology,
saying he was not following her that she was
certainly mistaken, &c.
'Yes you did, you blackguard,' exclaimed the
lady; 'you followed ine fourteen squares!'
My dear madam,' replied the gent, recovering
his composure, 'I never was guilty of follow ing so
ugly a woman !' '
The lady's eyes flashed lightning her face
ciimsoued like a red hot stove she clenched her
hands her lfps rufvefed converts! very she turn
ed, aud went svffft.
SOUTHERN FABRICS GOING NORTH.
The Wakullah (Fla.) Times of the 12th ultimo
states that the brig Herald, which cleared at New
port the 10th ultimo for New York, had on board
twcnty-ihree bales of cotton yarn manufactured
ar the Jeff, rson Southern Rights Slanufacf uflng
Company's establishment, M on ficelle, Florida, it
being the first shipment by that cottrpany. The
same vessel had on board ten bales from the Madi
s m Factory.- The Ccttrmbos (Oa.) Enquirer of
the 3f0ih ultimo say? : 'Some of our Columbus
factories have been in the habit of sending pretty
large orders to New York and Philadelphia for
more than twelve months past.'
AMERICAN ISRAELITES.
A statement is going the rounds of the press to
the effect that there are about 17,000 Israelites in
the Uuited States, and among (hem alt not one
is engaged in agriculture. This statement, it is
hardly necessary to say, is incorrect. One of the
largest planters in Kentucky, Mr. Benjamin Gratz,
an old personal friend of the late Henry Clay, is
an Israelite, while in South Carolina and Georgia
and other States there are many of that ancient
faith extensively engaged in agfJetrlfOre
We may add that the Hon. Mr. Benjamin, of
Louioiana, is extensively engaged in sugar plant
ing, and baa written standard essay npon the
culture and chemistry of that staple published in
De Bow's Review.
A female writer says 'nothing looks worse on a
lady than darned stockings.1 Allow ns to observe
that stockings that need darning look a great
deal worse than darned ones darned if they
don't!
HEALTH' Of G0LDSB0RO
We deem it necessary to make a statement of
(acts a poo the above subject.
Reports have been circulated so exaggerated
and prejudicial to the community and the College
that parents and guardians have been alarmed
and suffer much uneasiness'. To inform, I make
a statement of 1'actS, for which I am responsi
ble 1st. The Dysentery has prevailed in the entire
community, for which we make ho apology, as
the same disease has equally prevailed almost in
every part of the South.
2nd. While Goldsboro' has upwards of 1,300 in
habitants there have been only two adult deaths
but quite a number of children.
3'd. There have been two deaths among up
wards of ninety students in school, one ol
Dysentery the other of a complication of dis
eases. 4lh. There never hr.ve been three developed
cases of disease iu College.
6th. There is no case in College now. and in
every instance in which parents have taken their
children home they have been sick.
Gth- I most empbntically state to parents, if
their daughters are sick they will bc'iuformrd' of
the fact, and as long as they hear nothirg from
me, i hey may know they are well. I do not pro
mise parents that their daughters will not sicken
and die. for the issues of life and death are in the
hands of God, arid I dare not usurp bis preroga
tive in this or any other position but 1 do promise
to do all 1 can to preserve their heulih to prepare
them fordjing, und in every particular, to acj
the part of a father and brother, and for this
the world, as God does, ma" hold me responsible

MRS. BROTHER'S HOUSE.
Mr. Euitor : We have travelled the Wilming
ton & Manchester Railroad ever since the fir t
mile of the same was laid with iron, and in all of
our trips we have hiet with biit one gbod house
on the rdad. I have heard PrtsSerigers say it was
the best LouSc between Arigusta, Georgia, anil
New York. This house is located at Fair Bluff,
N. C, and at present is only a lunch house. We
think for the interest of the Company and Mrs.
Brothers, it should be made a regular eating
house. Persons from Wilmington wishing to en
joy the fine fishing of Lumber river, and have ev
ery attention paid them, need only go to Fair
Bluff and see our friend Mrs. Brothers. Her
table is not surpassed in the State and every at
tention will be paid her visitors while there.
Don't take our word for it, but go and see the
widow. A VISITOR.

Holloicay's Pills. Among all the idle filed ica
ments of the day, the names of which fill the com
mon ear to nausea, we would not include Hollo
way's Pills, Celebrated both here and in Europe,
for their wonderful curative properties. A sound
discrimination has taught us that their reputation
is not ephemeral, but a solid substantial one, based
upon a long and useful existence among the in
telligent, the refined, and the discerning. They
are to be met with in every portion of the civiliz
ed Globe, and in every spot their vlrthes are al
luded to with grateful enthusiasm, that well en
dorses their capacity and virtues. Thev are not
merely designed for a special complairt, but are
depuratives and cure, by removing from the sys

traordinary manner in most all disorders to which
human nature is subject. .Ycir York True -National
