Nearly all the counties will show a considerable increase of population. Wake county will reach about 30,000, showing an increase of 6000, while Lenoir, Warren, Henderson, and many other counties, will show a large increase over 1S50. It is said that the cotton crop of North Carolina will be larger this year than ever before, although the drought at one time and the rain now will measurably shorten it. The Washington (N. C.) Dispatch says: "Enough has resulted' from the experiments of a few years past, to settle it as a "fixed fact," that North Carolina henceforth may be set down as a cotton State. The soil and climate of a large portion of the State render the cotton crop the most productive. We learn with much regret of the loss by fire, on Sunday night last, of the valuable Mills of W. J. Cureton Esq., on t&e uatawDa river, 10 iuis i/iamou. rum or five hundred bushels of wheat, besides some corn and a considerable quantity of flour, were consumed with the Mill. The Mill had not been in operation since Saturday, and there had been no fire on the premises for weeks These and other circumstances have given rise to the belief that the fire was the work of an incendiary.?Lancaster Ledger. G. W. Kendall writes under date of September, 13th, from his Texas sheep farm to the N. Orleans Picayune: "If any of our readers, or any of my victims, wish to know how this particular section of Texas looks just now, let me say that all parts of the face of the earth we can see, is as green as a wheat field; that all our stock? horses, cattle and sheep?are fairly rolling in fat; that we shall have an abundance of sweet potatoes; that cotton is growing finely; that our fall gardens give excclleui promise ; and that at the present writing, i. a genial shower is falling." Royalty is on the move in Europe, i Qaeen Victoria has gone to Germany.? Napoleon and Eugenie are touring.to their Southern dominions. Leopold, of Belgium, is visiting, his loyal towns. Isabella Segunda, as becomes a progressive sovereign, is making a progress. The Russian Czar, the Austrian Kaiser, and the Prussian Regent are to meet at Warsaw soon, and will be waited on by a small army of petty kings and grand dukes, and princelets. Victor Emmanuel is going to Naples. The Prince of Wales is travelling over tne unuea| States. Not to be out of the fashion, King Bomba II., late of Naples, has also taken a hurried journey, and is expected soon to be in SpaiD. .v.... We learn says the Charleston Mercury of the 8th \nst., that on last Saturday night an elopement took place at Ridge* ville, on the line of the South Carolina Railroad, about thirty-one miles frotn Charleston, .under very singular circumstances. The parties were a widower and the wife j of a highly-esteemed citizen of Ridgeville, ' ?' ?? ~ "4 timn okoAnf f??Am liAmo I WUU was, au vuc liluc, au^ui Hum uuiug, The widower has abandoned six youug children, and the partner in his guilt leaves three, one of whom is an infaut. The faithless wife left for her husband a short note, in which she rather cavalierly notifies him of her intentions, and consigns her children to his care. The affair has caused a deal of excitement in the neighborhood where it occurred. Garibaldi washes his own shirts when occasion requires. After the battle of Melazzo, finding his shirt dirty and soiled from his personal stuggles, he took it off, washed it in the brook hard by, and huDg it up on the bushes, ate his lunch of bread, fruit and water, smoked his cigar bare-backed, and, wrapt in thought, sat apparently contemplating the dryingof his garment; thus in thefieid or bivouac, shariug danger and hardship with the humblest of his followers. Directly his shirt was dry, he weDt on board the Tukeri, formerly Veloce, lying in the bay on the western side of the peninsula, and personally directed her fire on the fortress aDd retiring masses. In answer to a query from a correspondent, the Chicago Journal says that "Artcmus Ward," whose humorous writings are known in the daily papers, is Mr Brown, the Local Editor of the Cleveland Plaindealer. "Artemas Ward, the show man," is a name assumed by him, though there is really a man by that Dame, and a regular genius in the Show business, who exhibits wax figures "and secb," and makes a great deal of fuD, down in Indiana.?

He don't look like a fuuDy man at all, beiDg "on the contrary quite the reverse," but that he is a funny man none will doubt who have read his queer "Artemus Ward" letters. A good story is related of a conductor on a railroad, who was a strict churchgoing roan, and was always found promptly in his church on the Sabbath. One Saturday evening his train was in very late, and he did not take his customary amount of sleep, which, however, did not prevent his attending divine service as usual. During the sermon he unwittingly fell into a profound sleep, soothed by the monotonous voice of the clergyman. All at once he sprang from his seat, thrust his hat under his arm, and giving his neighbor in front a push, shouted, "Ticket, sir!" The startled neighbor also sprang to his feet, which thoroughly aroused the conductor, who, looking mildly around, and seeing all eyes turned ?oward him, instantly comprehended his position, and "slid," amid a suppressed titter from the whole congregation.

Since the Franco-Sardinian war last year, in pD.e crit which Sardinia came out in many respects tnumphant, Italy has been in a state of transition from a group of distracted, badly-governed, petty little despotisms, to a confederacy of States, somewhat similar to ours, possessing State and federal constitutional governments. Garibaldi . ( is the hero of this united Italy; and Piedmont ^ with Victor Emmanuel as king, and count Cavour minister of State, is the neucleus of the wished- ~ for Italian confederacy. While count Cavour are carefully adumbrates the forbearance of Aus- ^ tria and the connivance of France and the other leading Powers of Europe; Garibaldi, by a series of brilliant and startling movements which have k me opened the eyes of the whole civilized world upon himself, has carried on the revolution.? He has conquered the Two Sicilies; he is now 1 for ready to invade Rome; and the Pope is preparing to fly his dominions, and seek refuge in Aus- pei tria or Spain. YA Count Cavour, though we doubt not be is an ardent patriot and wise statesman, is the power J in Sardinia that keeps in check this popular re- ftn( volution. He has respect to existing treaties, jev "balance of power" ideas and international law by and jealousy ; while "the great reformer," Gari- p?' baldi, relying on the hold which non-interven- asl tion principles have upon the European powers, fac | and on the patriotism of the Italians, goes on ?* "conquering and to conquer" in the cause of 1 Italian unity. It has even been stated, and though ing denied re-affirmed, that Garibaldi has addressed ^or a letter to Victor Emmanuel "demanding the immediate dismissal of Carour and Farini" from tat the Sardinian ministry, and "thirty thousand "it Sardinian soldiers to garrison Xaples." These demands at the latest advices were to be laid by co] the Ministry before thePiedmontese Parliament, rat The Ministry oppose them. Emmanuel in com- enl menting upon them says that he "cannot com- jg ply with such strange pretensions from a man am whose successes seem to mislead him." Nevertheless, what has Sardinia done ? She poi has plunged into the waves of the revolution, cul with the torch of freedom in her teeth ; and must sta buffet every breaker to carry its fierce light to through the darkening storm, or incur the peril jevt of being dashed to pieces if she strives to regain me the shore. Emmanuel has said that he can no has longer control the popular movement, and that wit he must head it or be crushed to pieces. In las strict accord with this, Piedmont has drawn the i?c sword. The grounds for this action are the a 1 oppressive misrule which is the order of the ap| day in the Pope's Professions, and the presence she therein of hireling foreign bands of marauders, spe chiefly Irish, who would sack a town for its rife pluuder, designed to keep down popular demon- lan strations. The excuse is that by heading the tha revolution and conquering the Romish provinces, sea Emmanuel cau then check its progress towards gar Venice, and therefore prevent another imbroglio ^ with Austria. Yet, seventy-four Austrian ves- era sels, mounting 900 guns, have been ordered to rendezvous in the Adriatic ; and Austria declares doe that she feels free, whenever it suits her, to at- twe tack the revolution. inv The proximate cause of. Piedmont's engaging tho in the struggle at this time, is the uprising of the several little towns in the north of the Pope's | hat Possessions. Sardinia, then, in the present war i kee ?for it is likely to be a war before it is done get with?stands pledged to aid the people in the to < expression of their wishss to resist the oppres- a g sion of the Popish government, and to combat j I the tendencies of the revolution to invade its j the Austrian power in Venice. To these ends ha] her king has sent into the States of the evi | Church an army of 50,000 men; who under gai Cialdini have already fought the successful die [ fields of Pessara and Fidaldo, beleagured Anco- pr< ! na with the aid of the Neapolitan fleet, and de- get | molished the papal power in almost every place 7.ei except the seven hilled city. thi The final success of this revolution in effect- of ing the union of Italy, after all the brilliant a wl chieveraeuts of Garibaldi, depends, we opine, of entirely on the power which Emmanuel may ly I ? nntvAoo ?fr cml tr tKn f 1 <, li f limn itu till I pU3?C3=> VU ..v ..fe | ? | constantly accelerating impetus. There is n | of I point beyond which Austria will not endure; lit : and that point is an actual or probable attack 'hi upon Venice. Auother imbroglio with her might esl lose all. It is an anxious hour for the far-and- wt wide-seeing Italian patriot. Liberty is just sh within her grasp. Will she by one rash step fe< bring on another war, and thereby lose all ?? thi | Will the "living waters" of hope and "the gold- se en frui"*" of fruition, recede as the waves and pr branches did from the hungering and thirsting ri( lips of Tantalus? Will she, to grasp the shadow a of Venice, let fall from her mouth the substance tu of an Italian Confederacy? It is an anxious mo ment, we say, for the liberties of Italy, the peace of Europe, and in some degree the prosperity of co the world. To show how we of the South even K> | ?far away as we are?arc effected by these Pr events, the announcement in Loudon of the sim- wj pie fact that the Pope was nbout to leave his to dominions caused a fractional advance in the I price of cotton ; because it was regarded as a | movement looking to a diminished complication sc I and speedier settlement 01 me xuinau question. ? ' Every pulse of freedom in the old-world is felt, ''' "With a gigantic throb acroig the sea." ^ | THE BROGAN MOVEMENT. ^ An enquiry made in a recent number of the u] Southern Guardian, whether 'negro shoes of 01 Caroliua make could be had anywhere in Col j umbia,'together with other advertising influ fl( ences, has developed the grateful fact that more si than one, perhaps between two and three hun P' at ' I dred thousand pairs of brogans are made yearly |e in South Carolina. The largest Factory we to ' have heard of, Mr. Lyuch's of Cheraw, turns out one hundred pairs per day, and is patronized by jj ' planters in various parts of the State. The ijj ' next largest belongs to Mr. Allen of Camden, te who now puts in the "Florida, Alabama, Mis- 'lf nt sissippi and Arkansas market "upwards of g( 15,000 pairs annually;" and is making arrange- fo inents hereafter to manufacture 50,000 pairs per "J annum, to meet the demand which the populari ^ ty of his shoes has created on the plantations of ch the west. We could place our finger on per be haps more than a dozen "shops," in the upper ^ districts, which manufacture each from 500 to w| 5000 pairs of negro shoes annually. be heBe shoes commonly cost from twenty fiv fty cents per pair more than Yankee bro s; while for actual service they are reall; th perhaps one half more. The best mad kee shoe will scarcely last a negro fellow aged actively upon the farm in rain and sun and snow, during the severity of the wintei i home-made brogan will not only do this , if at all taken care of, will serve the negr nd turn on logrolling occasions, when plough in rough ground, at the harvest season le binding fodder at night?in short upon a isions when he needs a shoe throughout th tie year. If we simply take into considers t the length of time the shoe lasts, the hom le is the cheapest; but there are other fact thy of note. The Southern shoe?for th pie reason that it is stouter?protects th : from rain and cold better; and, therefor . better guardian of the negroe's health an . We begin to die in the feet oftener, pei is, than in any other part of the body. The farther from the heart; and hardest, then s to keep warm. The Yankee shoes at ;n made of light spilt leather that soon wear i holes. They are badly pegged, and boo d." The eve seams are stitched in a gallop t soon yawn. Water or snow gets to the m e's feet through these apertures: then a coli umonia, death?an immense loss as well as ne. )ver and above all these facts stands tl r present and ever-pressing need of moi ithern independence, appealing like the sla g cry of a beloved mother to the patriot.i 200,000 pairs of brogans are made annual South Carolina. That would be upwards ) pairs per day; to make which would requi ) men. To feed and clothe these and thet ves, 200 more would be necessary. So, he 400 men to add to the wealth and power State in peace, or form a fine battalion at ) valiantly" on the day of battle. Success, then, we say to the brogan mov nt!

One cot iy is making ear-drops of a composition calli ide, which will sell for gold, but is not wor much as bras*. The other company is man turing gold chains out of German silver, bras oreide. The process o? making was interes : to me, and may be to others.

This is gii erprise jewelry, which is marked "Lady eudid gold chain, $12," "Gent's guard chui ," or "$10," etc. The ear drops cost lei 1 are often marked higher." fhese items come from the pen of a corre ident to the New Hampshire Journal of Ag\ lure; nnd may be regarded as a truthf tement of the case. It is a little humiliatii the Southerner to think that this spurio retry ? iuio nuicuicoo //?ctu?yr ui vuw uun tals with a specious gloss on the outsidei given a greater impetus to the book-tra< h us than almost any thing else within tl t few years. We would be glad to see th reased demand for books, if it really indicati corresponding improvement of the readii jetite of our people; but unfortunately ws no such thing. It marks the desire fi culatiou and empty show which is only ti ! among the young men and women of o d. This is proven by the fact in many case t the buyer of the books does not wish at rcely expects ever to read it, but is simp obling for the jewelry. ?he books, too, are gotten up usually in mi ble style ; and while the proprietors of Gil )k Enterprises propose to give, the purchasi ible "value received," he often makes one i > hundred per cent., perhaps, on the capit ested. We have no doubt hundreds ai usands of our young folks have been bit 1 ir bargains. Indeed, we have seen boys wl i lain in a pretty heavy stock of these "Ya: ! notions," actually have a mock auction rid of them. The whole affair from beginnii end is a cheat, a swindle, that is supported ;reat exteut by Southern gullibility. r\gain, if we look at this "bogus jewelry" bearings upon the security, harmony ai ppiness of Southern society, it is equally 1. It cultivates a taste and tendency f mbling and other immoral speculation. Pe srs find it no inconsiderable source of the ifits while travelling among us; and they a nerally regarded by our wisest and best ci is as a public nuisance. They certainly, ;y do nothing worse, take no little trade o the hands, especially of our country merchanl 10 are our neighbors and friends, and verteb the backbone of the country.

We might pursue tlx oughts further; but we have said enough t each reader to thinking for himself ; and < pc the result will be an abandonment of t actice, if ever followed, of selling his biri rht of common-sense for the poor pottage "Yankee notion" that thrives only as a "pri sal joke" upon our gullibility.

This was one of the most sig ^ nal and important victories of the Revolution. ut As the day oocurred on Sunday, the Cadets of the King's Mountain Military School comraerara orated the glorious event on Friday, by a joint parade with the Jasper Light Infantry, a pic-nic, and a ball at night. The parade was equal to ,se anything we have seen heretofore from the two )0' companies in battalion; and was witnessed by t0 a large crowd of admiring ladies and gentlemen. to Indeed, we have never before seen a company nc* so well drilled at. the Cadets ; and the Jaspers ' are rapidly approximating them in precision, 0(^ dexterity, and harmony of movement. 59e Maj.

Ct8 After the morning drill, the pic-nic, which rs< was altogether creditable to the occasion, was di discussed amid seemingly endless good-feeling 'r' and hearty pleasure. There were no long dry Jn toasts and set speeches thrown off eztemporanend ously with "malice aforethought" to make it a n'j "state occasion," and mar the joyous festivities. rae Wm. Henry Trescot, Esq., had been elected as sn, orator of the day ; but his appointment to the ^rs post of Assistant Secretary of State, prevented e9' him from complying : so had Lieutenant J.

Th< canons of fashion are given forth for the occa sion. The arbitri elegantiarum have spoken up on the item of Ball Costume. One of our read ers in forty may be curious to know somethinj in general of this matter. For that onein-fortj we give the main items of gentleman's dress :? Coat?black dress; skirt extending to thi knee and very narrow ; sleeves full, tapering and cuffless; lapels broad; buttons small.? Pantaloons?black, plain, straight and half large Vest?plain, roll-collar, of black silk. Glovesstraw color of the lightest tint, or pure white Shirt collar?short, standing. Cravat?narrow white. Shoes?pump-soled, low quarters, witl black silk stockings ; or pump-soled boots?tb< latter preferable for the Prince Ball. There! We hope our One-in-Forty is full; satisfied. The style for ladies is detailed with evei greater particularity; but we modestly declin to pursue such a delicate subject. It bewilder us. We beg to refer our lady readers, wh would like to see "all about it," to the Com mission des Modes itself?the highest authorit; on fashion in the world. One item, however mentioned by Genio Scott, in this same connec tion, struck us as quotable. Speaking of extras ne remarks : "I'oint lace snawis, irom six t twelve hundred dollars each, are, by some, pre ferred to the bal sortie." We marvel. But in general just now, we suggest, whoeve wishes to be quite fashionable?e.ltgant d I mort?has only to wear everything d la Princ of Wales. He must get a Prince, of Wales hat coat, cane, boots, neck-tie; use Prince of Wale tobacco, cigars, soap, and tooth brush; hav Prince of Wales paper, envelopes, pens, an seals; must "do things" d la Prince of Wales dancing especially?not forgetting to fall dowi and pull the lady down on top of him ;?mus shave, walk, talk, sleep, and play the fool gen erally, all d la Prince of Wales. We hope, in our own behalf, that the boy wil soon be taken back to his grammar school, an let America get some other wonder to gape an stare at. The Agricultural Fair. The fifth annual Fair of the State Agricultur al Society is to open on Tuesday the 13th of No vember, to contiuue four days. Preparation are already in progress. Everything promise largely.

The annual address is to be delivered on th 14th, by Henry W. Ravenel, Esq., of Aiken. The hotebcapacity of Columbia will be suf ficient for the jam. Committess already hav the matter in hand, and they will doubtless mak "Ample room and verge enough" for everybody and everybody's folks. We ac cordingly hope to see everybody on that occa sion.

The house of \ .

They have just established a t line of packets which will ply between these 3 > cities; and it is thought that the comparative > freedom from fog and ice along the route to be fj . traversed, together with other advantages, will t . enable this line to compete most successfully i: . with New York commerce. The Glasgow Cou- p r rier of a recent date, contains an article from p r Mr. J. D.

BETHEL PRESBYTERY. The late meeting of this body, held at Grindal Shoals on the 5th and 6th instant, will be long remembered by those who were privileged to attend. The over-hanging clouds and contin- | uous rains under which the greater number of i us left our homes, the muddy roads, long distance , and swollen streams, are facts not soon to be < forgotten. So, too, the cordial groeting receiv- I ed from that noble flock and hospitable com- i ' munity around the newly organized church, the < - pleasant sojourn there, and the interesting ] 8 meeting of the Presbytery, constitute u an oo i 8 caaion to be cherished with delight for many ( - long years to come. e d The opening Sermon was preached by the ( d Moderator, Rev. W. T. Hall. Twenty eight t Q members were present?more than half Elders. 1 Rev. J. H. Saye was elected Moderator, and W. t e T. Hall, Clerk. Rev. John S.

A prospect of a church j i about to be ereoted near H&laelville, Cheater s ' * r C' strict, and a new organization expected there, ble-l is reported. There are bat two vacant the urches in the Presbytery. The following I sa' inisterial supplies were ordered for these and stitute communities, during the next six onths. At Unionville, Ministers James, Har- ,j,| i and Hall, preach one Sabbath each. At gjec me Creek, Anderson, Davies and Banks, each ^ ie Sabbath. Near Halselville, Adams, Baird, jQQ( win, Saye and White, supply as many as three jagg ibbaths between them, and as many week days ( convenient. In a community, east of Lan- mQr ister Court House, Craig, Harrison and Smith, each one Sabbath each ; and Rev. S. L. Watn, one Sabbath in a vacant Church or destine locality. You Notice was given, from the committee author- To j ed, to the members of Presbytery, that a con- Sup mtion of Elders and Deacons is to be held in For orkville, on the first Wednesday in August j)ea Jit; and that on the occasion Rev. J. M. H. The dams is to preach a Sermon to the Eldership, ev. S. L. Watson to the Deacons, and W. P. gut rawford, Esq., to make an address to both the lders and Deacons. The objeots of the Con- Too sntion were recommended, by resolutions aopted in Presbytery, to all the officers in our j hurches. My After remaining together three days, and en>ying a blessed Communion on Sabbath, the ^ 'resbyters sought their homes on Monday. In arting from that youthful but exemplary church ^ rith whom we had been so pleasantly a3sooiated, '^n' re recorded our sincerest benedictions, and exressed our bright anticipations of its future rosperous career. It is a monument of what a ^ai mall band of Christians?mostly women, aided y gentlemen of intelligence and high-toned Oh rinciples?can accomplish by the blessing of To lod. This is a church of but one year's stand- Cei ng and fourteen members ; yet it enjoys the Th isstoral services of one of our best preachers, ar half the time. Surely, here is a rebuke to ome of our large churches?having twenty fold he members?who yet are content with less i ban the whole services of a Pastor. 3?

Editors : I see a few lines in your pa ^ per of the 27th September, taken from the Little Rock Gazette, stating that starvation stares the ^ A.rkansians in the face; which statement I am impelled to think is incorrect. I returned a "ew weeks since from visiting a portion of that State; and I am happy to say that I found the Re :rops generally good. I traveled down White River, and thence along the military road on the lorth side of the Arkansas River. I found the _ Re :rops very good ; and I was informed by farmjrs that the yield would be as large as usual.? 3n the Cadron and Point Remove creeks, and >ther water courses, also along the upland val- Ar ies, farmers will certainly make more than "one hird of a good crop." When I reached the Illi- Ar iois bayou, I found the crops somewhat injured )y the drouth. Thence I traveled to Van Buren ?crops about the same. Across on the south iilfi of the Arkansas river, in Sebastian and *^r franklin counties, the crops were very light.? Chis was owing, I suppose, to the slate being 'ery near the surface of the earth, which has a endency during a short drouth to "fire" the :orn. A drouth of two weeks in that State is nore injurious to crops, than one of four weeks n South Carolina. The bottom lands lying aong the river are generally planted in cotton ,nd the yield will be abundant?from 1500 to !000 lbs per acre ; and the uplands will yield TC ibout 800 lbs. per acre. The corn crop will wh 'ield 20, 25, 30, and some lands 40 bushels per J?? icre. The mast crop is quite abundant?a suffilient quantity to fatten their hogs ; and prairies ? ire waving with grass for their stock of cattle. ~ )o you call that starvation ? I would like to O mow where we are to get our supplies? It will CC lot be in South Carolina, Georgia or Mississipii, if the crops are in accordance with what I ^ aw "at a glance" along the Railroad.
