our accounts from North C irolina.
'^Dkar Sin: Having no doubt that you
all,.in Cheraw, feel a ileep interest in
our elections, I write-to inform you of
the complete success of tb? VVhig party,
even beyond our most sanguine expectations.
Morehead is now upwards of 5000
ahead, and will be 8 or 10,0(H). He has
about 180J majority in Guilford; about
3,230 majority in Fisher's District, and
about 2000 majority in this District. The
^ West not heard from.
44 We have ejected one Whig in Robeson,
ami one in Moure, certain, by -J1

Mangum and Graham, and ev^pv member
in Fisher's District, uitl)^ majority
? - fi)r Moreke.\d in every cou^/ ,n hisDis^

so far, is 8; so if tly? w*t of "the^mte
goes as before, we sfH* ',ave a i^ority
of 29. Governor ( lVen is beajpn by 55
votes." '
c In Kentucirvd'e \Vj*ic?\twe carried the

From Alabama we have accounts which
render it probable tho, nol entire'y certain 1
ihat t >e Whigs will have a m;?jori;y in the 1
Legislature on joint ballot.
A counts from Indiana give tlie Whigs
14 in the Senate and the Van Burfen party ,
I. the Whigs 53 in the House, and Van
Buren parriy 9, making 67 to 10 on jo nt i
ballot. L ?st year, on joint ballot the Whigs :
had 30 and the Vans 48.
Professor Elliot of the S. C. College has accep- 1
ted the offi:e of Bishop of the Diocess of Georgia,
and resigned his professorship; the resignni.on 'to J
take effect on the first of January. It will be difficult
to procure a successor to professor Elliot, in
every respect so well qualified to discharge the duties
of the office, and at the same time so acceptable
to the public.
Jacobinison in Boston.?We find in an exchange
paper the following paragraphs, purporting
to be extracts from the "Boston Quarterly Review."
Owing to the monstrous character of the
doctrines au.anced in the extracts, and the great
imprudence which it required to promulge them
in a periodical supported and commended to the
the public by respect tble individuals, we were alinosiJinclinedjKvltenJwe
first read them, to Suspect
that thev must be fortrerfes: but a moment's re.
flection satisfied us they could be. For no respectable
newspaper editor, even if not restrained by
principle, could be fool enough to be guilty of s'ucli
forgery, knowing that detection and disgrace must
be the immediate consequence. We^knewjthere are
many infidels and lazy rogues in the country who
would rejoice at a general division of the earnings
of the laboring classes; but we did not suppose that
the conductors of any quarterly reviexc in the land
could have hardihood enough to make the proposal.
lu this we are mistaken as apj ea -ts from
die extracts refered to, which are as follows.
"We have no faith in Priests and Pedagogues,
I hey merely < ry peace, und-lh.it too, when there
is no peace, and can be none."
"For our part, we are d sposed to seek the
cause of the inequality of which we speak, in religion,
and to charge it to tho priesthood."
44 But,having traced the inequality we complain
of to its origin, wo proceed to ask ? gain, what
is the remedy / Tiu remedy is first to be sought
in the destruction of the Priest."
"Tim priest is universally a tyrant, universally
- .i # l'i. i .1 _ r .
uie nusiaver ui n.u ureiuren, ana tnereiore?11 is
Christianity condemns him!!!" (
'It may be supposed that we, Protectants,
havo no priests;-but for ourselves, we know no
fundamental difference between a Catholic priest
:in 1 a prot<-8:ant clergyman, cs ive know no
difference of any magnitude, in rcLtiou to the *
principles on which they are based, between a
Protestant church and a Catholic church."
Therojmay be no class of men sot apart and
authorized -either by law or fashion, to speak to
us ih tho uaifie of God, or to bo interpreters of
the word of God. Tho word of God never drops
from a Priest's lips!! !"
But one might as well undestnke to dip the
oceanulry with a chin.shell, as to undertake to
cure the evils of social state by converting men
to the Christianity of the Church."
"Wo object not to religions instruction?we
object not to the gathering together of the people
one day in seven, to sing and pray, and to
listen to a discourse from a religious teacher,
but wo object to every thing like an outward
t visible churcli?to every tiling that in the reino
test degree partakes of the priest."
"The hereditary descent of property is an anotnoly
irfeour American system, which must bo
removed or the system will be deal roved."
4,A man sha.l have all he honestly ucquires, so
long as he himself bd'ougs to the world in which
ho acquires it. But his power over Ills property
Must cease with his life, and his proper'y must
then become the property of the State [!!] to l?e
disposed of by some equitable law, for the
generation which t>k s his place!"
" "It js a great measure, and a startling. The
rich, tho business community, wil never volun.
turilv consent tq it, and we think wo know loo
much of human nature 10 bclieve,tbat it will ev.
er bu effected praceabiy. It will be ? ffectod onlv
by the strong arm of ptiysicnl foice."
We h ive nevor seen a nuin^ter of the Boston
Quarterly Review, and know nothing of it*
character, except what maybe inferred from the
above extaacts, and from the fact of its
being ,m;n3tim<>8 commended by party*editors as
an able and efficient supporter of the present Ad.
ministration. I.s support can bo no credit to
any pirty; still'here is no rational ground for
charging upoii the admiiiistiatiou?is is now
done by zealous party editors?the do'ctrines of
the Review merely because the Koview support
the administration party in preferreucc to th"ir
opponents. Wo know not who the editor of the
Itjview js, but it is stated in the Albany Evening
Journal that he is an office holder under the
Federal Government. If this be the case and
t >e President does not immediateiy dismiss him.
after the promulg ltion of doctrines such as Ihosv
umbracod in the above quotations, it will fe'
evidance, not that the President approve^the
dociriues?fortius no one can beliovo bul that
he wants firmness and priuciple do discfeargo a
pnblic official duty when it comes in conflict
with personal interest.
The attempt to identify tho Administration
'party with tho Boston Rwicw because it clings
to them, scorns to us not niuc.'i more rational
than would be an attempt to identic certtrinoegroes
with the vermin that crawfupon th?ij?

the cas^ fa the Southern States. This, how.

pei>l?ent. The relative value and economy of
jfible and green crop manure may depend in"
some measure 011 their relative durability.?
The kind of manure which imparls the most
durable feitihty to land is, of course, other
things being eq a), the most valuable.* Cotton
seed is a rich manure, but its effect lasts
only one season. Indeed some planters are of
opinion that it leaves land in a worse state
after the first year than before it was applied.
1'he durability of unmixed green crop manures
remains yet to be determined by experience.
so far al least as we know, if, as is
latterly alleged, green vegetable matter turned
into the soil und rgoes a fomentation from
wiiloli results an acid injurious to v?gelation,
this may prove an obstacle in the way of manuring
bv this process, but not insuperable;
for the acidity may be corrected by lime or
ashes.

THE ATMOSPHERIC RAILWAY CARRIAGES.
It is upwards ol a year and a half since we
described the experiments made by Mr. Clegg,
in the borough, on the mod j*bf propelling car.
pages by means of exhausting a pipe or tube
with which the carriages were connected,
and then admitting the atmospheric air, and,
as it were, forcing the carriages and train al
ong a rail or tram-road.
These experiments were very suceessful?
indeed so successful, that few persons had any n
doubt about the ultimate success of the prin. l(
cipie of the indention. c
On Thursday; th*1 experiments were exhibi:ed
on a large scab, ftu a railroad which con. 11
nec'8 or is iuleiidcU 10 connect, the line of tlie
Birmingham, the Bristol,v&nd the Thames
junction lines, commencing Within a short dis- '1
lance oi Shepherd's Bush, anft wnning in a M
wesier.y direction for about three^u^riers of 0
a inihi. t.
The carnage put in motion, with the per. ,
sons on it, did not weigh much less than 12
tons bet -t travelled with great ease at the :j
rate oi *d3 miles an hour. The exhausted pipe .
or tube l .id uoiv.i, which was not the propell. |(
uig agent, but the means of i s development ^
was about nine inches in diameter. The engine
by which it was exhausted?namely a v
pump, worked by steam, rendered it tit for the I
operations required, in about two minutes and ii
a half, end from the index, that is quick silver, w
employed at the terment, it was ascertained n
thai the operation was performed simu.tan. .
eonsly at both ends of tl e line.
There was no noise, no smoke, and what is
better, no danger of explosion, or of a power
which could not be governed. In short, the s
experiment was as successful as its warmest
wellwisiiers could expect, and showed that the
agency of steam is not a sine qua non on a
rail road. . 1

Force to preclude the necessity oftfinneling.? q

Journal. It is unnecessary to state the parlJt
ticu'ar advantages whi.cha regular periodical
possesses over all other agencies; or to urge
the im|K)rtance of having, in this country, such
a medium as it affords to make known to the
>e public the facts and principles of the science.
r* The objects of this Journal are to preserve
it, from oblivion the most interesting of Hie very
it numerous facts confirmatory and lilustratr ejof
in the truth of phrenology; to record tho history
n and progress of the science; to show i?s true
r bearings on the education (physical, intsJJictual,
and moral); on t!ie na ure and treatment
~ of insanity; on jurisprudence and crimiuwl leg~
islatiou; on mental and moial ph.losophy; and
? to point out various applications to the unto
provement of the institutions, manners, and
| customs of society
Org nil essays on phrenological subject*
will form part of the Journal, and aiso review^
fs of phrenological and anti-phrenological works;
and, as oft? n a* practicable, we shall transfer
\< to Us pages, the best articles in the Editiburg
n I'l renolugical Journal, There are already eh,n
listed as contnbuiors to the work, many of
the ablest writers and b- st penologists in the
country, as well as several lor. ign correspou"
dents. We hope, as it progresses, to embody
;,t in its pages nearry ail the matter published on
a the science which is of particular interest to
id ihepu die, or can beot permanent valuefor fu?

piny our facts and delineations of ch^ractei
with illustrative cuts.
, Itisnot with the desire or expectation of
gain that it is offered to the community* Uut
,r from far higher considerations?ln?m a desire
d to know and to promulate Iruih. It vi ill be
it, oovious to all, that a woik of this character
t must dependchiefly for support on the voluntary
patronage and co operations of those who are
interested in the subjects it discusses, and it is
hoped that the friends of the science will not
r. only encourage it by their own subscriptions,
of but that tuey will make efforts to extend its
ia circulation in the various parts of the country
v where thev m iy reside. No pains or expense
?e vrill be spared on the part of the proprietor# to
