13 cents; Columbia, 11 to 122 : Charlotte, 9 to 10; ;
York, 11} to 13! Notice the figures! Is York
behind ? The receipts of Bacon and Lard in this
place for ten days, has been fully 23,000 pounds,
nearly all of which lias been taken by the trade. .
Aud now Messrs. Editor?, I would ask your
learnrd correspondent to point out a single article
of country produce, on which we do not "bid up" J
to its full value. What arc we buyiug here that j
" will ever pay out ? If there is one article that
will do it, I am ignorant of the fact. This is a
bad state of affairs but it is so.
Your correspondent, also alludes to the bad ;
road?the Laurels between Morganton and Yorkville
and to the Lincolnton and Charlotte plank
road as operating powerfully to take trade from I
York (where in properly belongs) to Charlotte.? ;
In this I agree with him. A plank road from
Morganton here, would do wonders for York, and |
if North Carolina will do her part, this road can j
and will be built. But your correspondent is mis- |
taken in supposing that all the trade is going to
Charlotte and none here?that our trade is decreasing
; on the contrary, our trade is-decidedly on the
increase. Three years*go, the produce merchants
of Charlotte, with the most reckless desperation,
bid outrageous prices, trade flowed into it from
every quarter?York was deserted. Well, what
followed ? A general explosion?a complete 'bust
up," thousands of dollars were lost ; families
made destitute ; then the reaction took place, produce
came down to a paying figure and the trade
which was forced there at so great a cost, is gradually
finding its way back to its proper channels,
and now Messrs. Editors, when our merchants I
are straining every nerve to woo back this trade;
when prices are paid which must result in loss if
"to the buyer," when Salt is sold at cost, and less
than cost, your unterrified correspondent stands j
, off coolly (out of harms way) and says, why don't j
you "bid up."
But enough for the present; another time perhaps,
I may haTe something to say.

TERRIBLE RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
The regular passenger train between Toronto
and Hamilton, Canada, on the Great Western Railroad,
ran off the track at a bridge near Hamilton,
on the 12th instant, and caused a terrible loss of
life. Two first class coaches were precipitated
from the bridge into the water below, a distance
of forty feet. The scene which followed is indescribable.
Sixty-eight persons perished instantly
in the fearful crush. Among the killed are Samuel
Zimmerman, Esq., the great banker; Mr.
Street, the eminent millionaire of Niagara Falls,
with his sister and mother-in-law. Thomas C.
Kacklin is also reported among the killed. Only
fifteen passengers escaped from the wreck alive ;
five of whom have since died. Several Americans
are known to have been on the traiu.
ELEGANT POETRY.
A sort of "cat o' nine tails," down in Chester,
has been "sloshing about," of late, and in his wild
gyrations has administtred to each and every qne
of the individuals composing that venerable esthetic
corporation, yclept the "Muses," a most
tremendous blow. The Standard says, and we
think the man is correct in this instance, that the
writer has some pretensions, and, accordingly,
the "pome" has already been set to music. Sing
it out, dear reader; and by the air of the melody,
take the sentiment to heart:?
I'm just from the South, and I bring you all the
news,
T'-, Imlf n rtnllnr rifrlil Siillflie in 111V sllOCS.
Its much difference between you iiud I?
Its big pig, little pig, root hog or die.
The dandies, uow-a-days, they come out so very
grand,
With Shanghai coat and glove upon the hand.
With a high standing collar that reaches to the
sky.
They go in the sun, shade, root hog or die.
The ladies, now-a-days, they dress so very gay,
With their hoop skirts promenading the whole day,
With their bonnets on their shoulders and their
noses in the sky?
They go it in the sun, shade, root pig or die.
The people now-a-days, they jhave got so very
nice,
They can't drink liquor, without having some ice.
They turn up the bottle and they make the liquor
flyBy
and by, its bound to make them root hog or
die.
THE FLORIDA CAMPAIGN.
A Key West correspondent of the Charleston
Standard, in a letter dated the 10th, furnishes the
following paragraph in relation to the progress of
Gen. Harney's operations in Florida :?
The U. S. sUnni&ip Fashion, Capt. Smith, arrived
the morning of the 6th from Fort Dallas.?
By her we learn that two companies U. S. Artillery
had arrived a few days previous from Fort
Myers, on the west coast, in a half starving Condition.
The everglades were dry and could not
be crossed. The troops followed the beach and
saw no Indians. Thus far little has been accomplished
towards the removal of the remainder, as
far as we can judge at this distance from the seat
of war. The lowness of water in the everglades
has prevented any canoe expedition from approaching
the Indian villages situated upon the
islands; and the Indians have bceu able to keep
beyond the reach of the troops. Until the heavy
rains set in, nothing of consequence cau bo done.
Gen. Harney has disposed of his forces in such a
manner as to be able to take advantage of the first
rise of the water, when we may expect to hear
favorable accounts from the gallant troops under
his command.
REPUBLICANISM.
Mr. Yeadon, of the Courier, was one of the
counsel for the Plaintiff in the case of Dr. Gibbes
? .L- n:.? r>???:i ?< rvi.,mk;? .
CJ LUVJ \jltJ vuuuwii Vl vv/iuiuuiu | nuu uuuug it 10
stay in the metropolis furnished to the Courier his
usual quantum of mixed-up correspondence. Of
course every paragraph is spicy and decidedly readable
; but the following is particularly so, describing,
inter alia, one of the thousand incidents
of every-day occurrence?commentaries upon the
most striking characteristic of this Republican
system of ours :?
On entering the Court House, I was induced
confidently to expect that the Court would soon
plunge into the case of R. W. Gibbes vs. E. J.
Arthur and John Burdell, for assault and battery,
with damages laid at $1<),0'IO, in which I had
come to take a hand; but my budding hopes were
soon nipped and withered by the killing frost of i
disappointment. A short case was first taken up, J
that of John Kinsler vs. The Town Council of
Columbia, for some ten thousand of brick. On
the part of the Plaintiff was that grave, staid and
eminent lawyer, Edmund Bellinger, Esq., and, on
the other side, was II. Walker Adams, Esq., a
j'oung advocate, the son of Ex-Governor Adams.
By a curious coincidence, Ex-Governor Adams
was the foreman of the jury?yes, as a striking
illustration of the working of our republican in- I
stitutions, lie, who was but yesterday the foremost |
man of the State, was now but foreman of the
jury?and lie had the signal virtue to render a :
verdict, exceeding five hundred dollars, against !
the Town Council, in spite of a clever and ingeui- !
ous maiden speech from his own young and pro- I
missing scion, coming down on the defendant like
a thousand of brick. The only principle involv- j
ed and decided in the case was, that the plaintiff, !
who was a brick-maker, but not eithcra mechanic I
or linndi-craftsman, bad a wright to prove his case
by book entry. On the close of this ca.-e, my
senior, associate and myself stood really to launch j
our bark on the sea of litigation, but an interveniDg
case of great magnitude, in both principle and
amount, unexpectedly came off, ami, during^ its
progress onr shallop remains on the storks. The j
case here referred to is that of the State vs.
Charles McCullocb, in which the State sues the i
defendant on a bond in the penalty of $45,000, '
condition for the faithful performance of the mason's
work, and the furnishing of good materials
for the same, for the building of the New State _
Capitol, which was condemned and demolished, in
consequence of incurable defects in both construction
and material. The defendant files a J
discount of $5G,000 and claims a large balance in ^
lii-- favor. The case i< conducted for the State by
Simeon Fair, Esq State Solicitor for tbe Middle '
Circuit, and by .Tolin Bau-kett and Edmund B-l- y
linger, E-qrs., for the defendant. It is worthy '
of remark that the State which has certainly , '
pulled down a wall, uay four walls, and subverted '
a foundation in this case, is represented by ouc ?
(Simeon) who, Scripture tells us 4'in his self-will,
digged down a wall," but who will doubtless not- (
withstanding prove a fair adversary to both the 1
iron sided Edmund and the well stored Bauskct, '
opposed to him,
Spnrtaiilmvg nml Union Railroad.
? e are not 111 possession 01 me luruiui jmieceu- i
inps of the special meeting of this road, held on
the oth and Oth inst. From private, but reliable
sources, we lean, that a confession of judgment, |
for $200,000, was executed to Davis Goudclock, j
Esq., for the benefit of the creditors, with a stay j
until February, 1858. In the meantime, the
President nnd Directors are authorized to use the i
assests of the Company?$117,000 privato unpaid
instalments, and S50.000 subscription of the State J
in bonds of the Greenville and Columbia Road? j
to prosecute the work as far as possible. At the j
next session, application will be made to the Legislature
to endorse the bonds of the Company to
the amount of $7,500 per mile?the money obtained
on such eudorsed bonds to be expended in
iron nnd track-laying. Should the State lend her
credit to the road, ns asked, the confession to be
null and void, otherwise to remain in full force
and virtue.
We further learn that John Coldwell, Esq.,
President of the South Carolina Railroad, was
present, taking an active suggestive part in the
meeting, nnd that nearly all their propositions
were the result of his practical capacity. Mr.
Coldwell urged and cheered the road forward, and \
expressed entire confidence in the ultimate completion
of the work. We hope his bright anticipations
may be realized, and that the State will
lend her aid to the road in the way desired. On
completion, without doubt, the road will pay
handsomely, and it would be a crying shame to
sink $800,000 in failure, where $200,000 or $300,000
more will extend the road to this point, and
pay a handsome income on the investment?Spartan.
A Singular Case?Supposed Trance.?On
Friday last, a young lady, named Williams, died
suddenly of disease of the heart in Cincinnati,

made for her funeral?when the carriages and (
hearse had arrived and friends assembled, a relative,
on approaching the body for the purpose
of taking a last farewell of the departed, noticed
a verry perceptible flush come over the
countenance of the dead, and on placing his "
hand over the region of the henrt, he was sur- J
prised to find it yet quite warm, notwithstanding .
the fact?or supposed fact?that death had oc- j
curred three days previous. A number of raedi- s
cnl men were at once summoned, who, after a J
consultation, advised a postponement of the fu- .
neral, and the hearse and carriages were dismiss- j
ed. Since that time the body has not at all
changed in appearance. The couutenancc continues
flushed, and there is considerable warmth
perceptible in the region of the heart. Meantime,
the family and friends are in the greatest
doubt and perplexity, amid conflicting opinious
as to the nature of the case. Some, who have '
visited the body, arc coufident that death has
actually taken place, while others maintain that
the young lady lies in a trance. Hundreds of
prople have visited the house daily, drawn there
by the singularity of the case.?Cin. Enq.

writer of our national music is said to be Stephen <

where he occupies a moderate clerkship, upon (
which, and a per centage on the sale of his songs, <
he depends for a living. He writes the poetry as
well as the music of his songs. These are sung <
wherever the English language is spoken, while 1
the music is heard wherever men sing. In the l

and reached a sale unknown till the music publishing
business. Of "The Old Folks at Home"
100,000 copies have been sold in this country, and |
as many more in England. "My Kentucky Home"
and "Old Dog Tray" each had a sale of about 70,000.

1>ikd, at Iloylcsville, Gaston County, N. C., on
he l'.Uh ult., AXDKEW HOYLE, Esq , in the
ill year of hi" ago.
Few men in an}* community have hoen more
lighly esteemed or gone down to tlie grave more
reiterated by hi" fellow-citizens, than the subject
.f this notice, lie was distinguished through life
or those sterling virtues ami remarkable traits of
diameter which give a just claim to the confidence
ind affection of society.
In early life his opportunities of education were
xtreroely limited and yet his thirst for knowledge
ironiptcd him to educate himself, and to acquire
i large amount of information of the most intporarit
kind. Commencing the world entirely poor,
lis*untiring energy and judicious management,
ed to the accumulation of n large fortune. This
;oo was acquired by a fair ayd honest means,
without injustice or oppression to others. Perhaps
to honest tnan, ever doubted his word or suspectid
his integrity. His ardent and generous nff'ec:ions
led him to a deep and disinterested concern
"or the welfare ofltis country. The rights of
tthers lie regarded with uniform justice. The
wants of the poor he relieved with the most exemplary
benevolence.
Tn tln? Fnniilv Circle ho was all that could be
expected from an intelligent, geuerous and unmade
man.
But lie was far from believing tlint bis work was
lone, when he had served himself, his family and
lis country. His highest excellence) was his
Christian character. The evidence of his Piety
ivas not found in noisy pretensions, but in thehumjle
and conscientious performance of good work?.
He was for mnny years a Ruling Elder in the
Presbyterian Church, and few men indeed are
Tound to seek its welfare with more zeal and sclfienial.
His time and influence and property were
jheerfully given to its prosperity.
The Presbyterian Church in Dallas was built
jhiefly by himself, and many other Churches sliarid
with his liberal contributions.
A life thus adorned by Christian virtues, was
dosed, under the sustaining and nnimnting hope
if a glorious immortality. "Mark the perfect
man, and behold the upright; for the end of that
man is pence."?Charlotte Democrat.

it a merely nominal cost; and we can assure our

Mr. ROBINSON promises to put it up in good

us in recommending it as the cheapest Press that

ted by the Junior partner, whose reputation as a
! mechanic has long been known to the people of
York District. They are both

In a short time, the spacious Sales-room on the
j first floor, will be supplied with nn assortment of
J CARRIAGES and BUGGIES and other vehicles;
; and they invite all who desire to purchase, and all
| mankind who are fond of the Fine Arts, to call
I and inspect their workmanship. Having expended
largely iu fitting up their establishment, they
trust that the public will give them a generous encouragement
and their work a fair trial. Their
best stock in trade is a thorough knowledge of the
busiuess and an earnest desire to please; and if a
prompt, efficient and careful performance of promises
can avail, they are determined to satisfy all
who may favor them with patronage.
THE HARNESS DEPARTMENT
has been placed in charge of MILES JOHNSON,
who occupies a portion of the shop, and will carry
on the business in all its branches. Saddles,
bridles, and harness of all descriptions, and of
first-rate quality, will be kept constantly on hand.
He is a superior mechanic, and his work will compare
favorably with any in the country.
All our work is warranted to stand good
for twelve months; and if any failure occurs
within that time, the repairing will be done carefully
