A correspondent .9f that paper furnishes the following ,orreo tion, which we also feel it our duty to republish: "Is there not some mistake In the article recently published in the Bul letin, and also in other articles in oth er papera in relation to this lady? She is, I believe, the daughter of the late and sister of the present Earl of Carlisle, better known in this 4ountry as Lord Morpeth, and Was born in the year 1806, and was married to the present Duke of Sutherlan.l (then Lord Gower) in 1823. Now surely the en ormities (if such they were) perpetra ted in the Highlands II the year 1811 by the Countess of Sutherland, the mother of the present duke, should not be visited upon the head of her daugh ter-in-law, the present Duchess, who was then but five years of age, and did not become connected with the Sutherland family by marriage ma ny years afterwards. "The Countess of Sutherland, who in 1811 made such use of what she deemed her own, as to her seemed most conducive to her own interest, was the daughter of the 18th Earl of that narhe. Her right to the succes. sion was contested by collateral branches of the family, aid was final ly determined in her favor by the House of Lords in 1771. She died in 1839. The title is an ancient one, goipg back to the 13th century; and Keineth, the third Earl, fell at the bat tle of Hlalidon Hill in 1833. Now, whatever the Countess of Sutherland did with regard to this property, I suppose was legally if n- t momlly cor rect; otherwise she would not *have been permitted to do it, and she mere ly exercised the right which the law in our country gives to an Astor or Gi rard, to do as seems best to them with what is their own. But be this so or not, it forms no ground for unbe coming personalities in relation to the present Dutchess, who certainly in this matter is unof'ending. I do not mean to defend her conduct in sending her address to the women of America, which abounds in errors of facts, and, to say the least of it, is in very bad taste. But let us stick to the truth two wrongs do not make a right, and in this matter the Dutches is blame less." - CIIALZSTON AND THE NORTH CAR OLINA COAL BBDs.-The recent move ments in other quarters seems to have waked up our friends of .Oprleston, to the-impor , of sand early coal fiel i. Hence some nost excel leut articles npon the subject, in re cent numbers of our esteemed cotem poraries, the Mercury and Standard. Recent explorations have rendered it extremely probable, that coal will lbe found much nearer to Cheraw than the Deep River mines. Indeed, the very same formation which produces coal in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and Virginia, and Alabama, pass es within twenty-five or thirty umiles of this place; and it would be strange that it should produce coal in all the a bove States and not in South Carolina and Georgia. Lignite, or charred wood formations, have been found in several places. Such a formation uin derlies our town, which outcrops in tho valley of a creek near its borders, which has hecen penetrated by sever al wells. We have several specimens in our office which are well worth tihe inspection of the curious. -Should1( our reasonable expectations in regard to the coal bearing formna tion h~e realized, the constructio'n of the Northeasterun and Cheraw Rtoads cannot be prosecuted too vigorously. The beds already explored ofler an in exhaustible supply, as wvill be seen by referring to the very interestinig or ticle copied last week fronh the South ern Standard. The coal region of North Carolina must soon assume an importance inferior to that of no och er within the limits of the Confedera cy. It is not capable of suplying the world with coal, but with iron and copper; both of which ill soon be wrought extenusively.

A Sl~uL DUT INvALUADLE CocoHm RKMKDr.-A friend gives us the fol lowing recipe for a very common com plaint in our midst, which he had' ma ny others have tried and found a cer tain cure for coughs: Take a hand ful of green or three papers of dry boarbound, and steep in a quart of water, to a strong tea; remove the dregs; boil down to a pint; then add a teaspoonful each of brown sugar and honey, a tablespoonful each of lard and tar, and boil the whole to a candy. Dose-a small piece about the size oif a pea; to he taken whenever disposed to cough. Therq ai most i 1en epime organzi tion it .rope, "has determined , send ouran agont wlidseXisit is fd the purpose of ascertaining hether o not the cotton growers of the' Soutl ern States are dispobd to throw .oi the Liverpool monopoly ofcottoia.Th propositlonls n6thing more nor les than--for this mammoth. society, in cot junction with the planters of the. co1 ton districts, to create a'continental de pot for cotton." The disposition of few private houses to aid the direc shipment of a few thousand bales of eol ton, could not be regarded as i mat ter of much immediate consequence but the importance which attaches ti the movement -when headed by th company alluded to, cannot fail t< arrest public attention and to produc decided results. We have been shown the corres pondence, which is two-fold. Th first commnieation is from a distin guished foreign Minister on the part o his Government, referring to the Pres ident, of the Company now enlisted This Company writes as such to an of ficial now in this country, stating tha they are disposed to carry out th plan proposed in a continental de pot for cotton. The parties, and th< names, and'the country, we are re quested not to mention; as in matter o .such importance, involving, too, suel immense counter-interest, the friendi of the movement have their reasons foi keeping the details to themselves. Another Infernal Alachine.-Th< capability of Cotton to resist sudden combustion, is well known. A wal of this material, of suitable thickness would resist the best directed broad side which could be brought to be. upon it. There would be no crumb ling or breaking down about it. A 121b ball would merely lodge in it, th< same as a bullet ladges in a thick plank. Taking advantage of this fact a scientific gentleman of our acquaint ance-Professor Grant-proposes 't< take small clipper steamers and covei them outside and in, with bales o: Cotton, so completely as to render them actually impervious to any known missile. These he would us< as floating batteries to protedt-not only our harbors-but our whole coast. The only weapon necessary for them would be simple, and yet a destructive one. It would consist of a long spar. rigged so as to range a considerable distance ahead of the battery, and at some distance under water. The end of this spar would be armed simply with a large quantity of gunpowder, to be discharged by a galvanie battery, on the spar being brought against, the side or bottom of the invad.ng vessel. Wood or Iron cduld 1 ot withit nd such a shock. TheI 'la t might< be""e'ted 1 ameter into 'the v6 4 agh hich.P was directed, and her almost instants neous sinking. The battery at th time of the discharge could be move< ofl, but if any mischance should oceui in any way, the Cotton would preven it froin sinking, while it protected ii and those employed upon it, from an; attacks of the enemy. About two months afa-r, a Mi Nasmyth, of Birminghanm, Englanu took up the sanme idea, and in a lette to the London Times, described 'Floating Mortar,' which he propose to con:struct, to guardi England froa invasion. A great noise is now mad in American papers about Mi Nasmy th's 'Fioatinig Mortar,' whic is nothing but a mxodification of Pr< fessor Giant's idea, published as b< fore stated. A Bu.L. DISPirrED.-'ihe harness fa the horse and carriage to be presente' to Gen. Pierce, was contracted fo and made in Boston, but the contrat tor having sublsequlently charged $1 837 fo~r the same, the committee ri fused to pay it, and ordlered a nca set to be made in New-York. The Bot ton contractor, it is said, will sue th committee for the amount, as the; directed him to make it of the bestc material, without regard to cost. Th mountings on the harness cost over $1I 100, and are mostly of solid silver, an of most beautiful design, represer ting oak br-anches, leaf and acorn. Charles ton Standard. AN IMPORTANT DIScovsaf.-A CL ban correspondent of the Raleigh Stain dard says, that Dr. Finley, an Eng lish practitioner of long expcesence ih Cuba, and a graduat.eda~iirie, has dis covered in the case of his practice il eases of smnh,? 'pox, that vaccine virus after hMe'g once passed through th, "sgroe's system, becomes useless as prophylactis to the white race. Thi fact may in some degrec explain th, rapid extension and tatality of that dis ease whenever it visits that Island. Dr Cartwright, an eminent physician o New-Orleans, who has published al elamborate essay, in which lie argues th origin of the diffe-rent races of mnn kind, has seized hold on the fact de veloped in the practice maintaine< by him.

The: President, elect, accompanied . by Mr. Fillmore, was escorte by an im mense civic and military procession. The following is the substance of. - the Inaugural Address:, The policy of the Administration will not be controlled, by 'timid fore bodings of evil, from expansion of- ter ritory. It is not to be disguised that the acquisition of certain possessions not within our jurisdjetion, are .impor. taut, if not essential, for the preserva tion of the rights of commerce and the peace of the world. Should they be obtained, it will be in no grasping spirit, but in a manner consistent with the strictest national faith. Our for. eign affairs will be marked by just and pacific views. le re-affirms the Monroe doctrine in the strongest terms; the Adminis tration cannot be expected' to retain persons in important positions, under the influence of political hostility and partisan prejudice' to i!, when it should receive cordial co-operation. Having no rewards to bestow, no resentments to remember, and no personal wishes to consilt, he will be governed in his selections by no motive that does not contemplate an efficient discharge of duty, and the best interest of the coun try. I-Ie considers the preservation of the Union as the grand' point to every American heart.. Blot out one star and the whole constellation will .be dimmed. He believes that involunta ry servitude is recognized by our Con stitution; that it stands like any -other admitted right,- and that States,- where it exists, are entitled to efficient'reme. dies for the enforcement of ',Constitu tional pr.visions.
