vades every part Of this happy and en-
terprising Union, and awakens all men
to true sense of their real interest, 1t
is presumed that an object Of so great
importance, as that of enhancing the
substantial wealth of the whole extent
of valuable country that transports its
AGRICULTURAL and other products over
the road from Manases Gap, in the
Blue Ridge, to and from the District
of Columbia, will attract the attention
and cooperation of every efficient indi-
vidual, SO as to ensure perfect unanimi-
ty among those concerned, in adopt
ing and prosecuting, to ultimate &C.
complishment, the necessary means OF
paving the road from the said Gap to
its intersection with the Buckland turn
pike. Arguments on this subjeotwould
be mere supererogation.-Every body
must intui,ively know, that, not only
those whose real property is located
near the route of this road, would be
benefited by such measure; but that
those who live at the western extremi-
ty; these who participate in the gene
raj prosperity Of the counties through
which it passes; those who are inter-
ested in the turnpikes below; and those
whose interests are in anywise con-
neeted with the commerce of Alexan-
dria, would likewise derive proper
tional and great advantages from it
1t must also be obvious to every one,
that this desirable object is within the
control of those concerned; and that
should the present favorable period be
neglected, should failure through SUI
pineness, to secure, without delay faci,
lily so loudly demanded by the extern
siye interests of the surrounding coun-
try, be permitted, the farmers, millers,
distillerS and all others who transport
over the present unimproved road, and
all who would resort to turnpike In
the same direction, will, after the great
canal shall have been completed, and
rendered the district an emporium for
a fertile and extensive region Of the
west, understand the wisdom OF the
proyerb which teaches the danger of
delays. 1t is therefore proposed that
all practical men who feel an interest
in the subject. will attend at Salem, on
the first Monday in August, Tor the
purpose of demonstrating their sen,i-
ments in regard 10 this important sub
ject.
The Editors Of Alexandria, Win
chester and Woodstock, would serve
a numerous population, including ma
ny of their subscribers, by introducing
this subject into their respective pa
pers, and giving publicity to the above
proposal for meeting.

We are grati6ed to learn that the
work of our fellow-citizen, Mr.. RAY
MoND, on Political Economy, has been
adopted in the University OF Virginia
as the standard work on that subject
in that Institution. When We consi-
der the high political as well as litera-
ry reputation of the gentlemen who
are at the head of that Institution, "a
mong whom are the two EX-Presidents
JEFFERSON and MADISON, we cannot
but think this most flattering COM
pliment to the work, and one which
cannot fail to establish its reputation
with the American people.

a public dinner at Charlottesville, but
declined. Mr.. Monroe expressed great
regret at being unable to meet his
friends on such an occasion, and beg
ged that the i'll health Of his family,
and very urgent private business which
called him to Loudoun, might be con-
sidered as his excuse. His acceptance
would have afforded pleasure to many
of our countrymen, who were desirous
to give public manifestation OF re-

Hail. STORM.

MartinsJug, June 9.-On Wednes-
day the lst inst. a tremendous hail
storm was experienced in this county,
in the neighborhood of Back Greek
Valley. Whole fields Of the growing
crop have been literally destroyed, and
other serious damage sustained. A
mong the principal sufferers, we are
sorry to learn, is our worthy fellow-ci
tizen, Capt. Israel Robinson, who, it is
said, has lost about two-thirds Of We
ry promising wheat crop. How far
west the storm extended, we have not
learnt. East Of Hack-Creek, it extend
ed some four or five miles.

HaEfar, IN. c.. June Son Tues
day week last, the Petersburg stage
had proceeded about four miles from
this town, when the passengers discov-
cred that their trunks, three in number,
which had been placed on behind, were
missing. The stage Immediately re-
turned 10 the ferry, but without finding
the trunks. The alarm being given,
number of our citizens, with credita-
bic alacrity, Immediately commenced a
most diligent search of the surround
ing country, and finally recovered the
trunks, which had been deposited in a
wheat field short distance from the
road, and about two miles from the
town. 1t is supposed that the trunks
had fallen from the stage, and being
seen by negro at work near the road,
were taken up and concealed by him:
The trunks were not injured-one OF
them, we are told, contained upwards
OF 1000 dollars. The alarm was given
at about sunset, and before 5 O'Clock
in the morning, with the aid Of moon
light, the trunks were found.

Our readers may, perhaps, remember the
report that prevailed here some days ago, re-
lative to an authorised foreign subscription of
stock in the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Com
pany, and the remarks which we made upon
that report.-Those remarks have probably
drawn forth the following from the Philadel-
phia Gazette. We shall certainly not dispute
the Editors assertion, that no shred ofEhjah's
mantle has ever fallen to their share,-but we
take the liberty to suggest to them, that,
whenever uninspired men attempt to prophe-
CIV, they only develope the secret wishes OF
their hearts.
"a southern paper speaks of some
foreign capitalists being prepared to
subscribe several million dollars to the
stock of the Ohio and Potomac Canal
Company. No shred Of Elijah's man.
tie ever fell to our share, and yet we
will venture TO make one prophecy
We prophecy that the Ohio and Poto-
mac Canal will never be made by a
Company. IL ever completed, three
fourths of the funds must be furnished
by the United States Government"

ToNrxISs, late Vice President OF the United
States, is no more! He died at his residence
upon Staten Island, on Saturday last, in the

illness. The Senate ofNew-York, the officers
ofthe City Corporation, the Judges of the dit
ferent Courts, the members of the Bar, the Of

invited 10 attend his funeral
While the people of the United States re-
member the history of their second war of in
dependence, the name of Daniel'D. Tomp-
kins can never be forgotten.

We publish to-day, the proceedings at a
public Dinner given by the citizens Of Able
vile county, in South Carolina, to the Hon.
orable JoHS c. CALHOUN, Vice President OF
the United States. We omit the volunteer
.oasts, many of which are temperate and good,
but others again are too strongly marked with
the local excitement produced by the Presl-
dental election. The regular toasts, IT we
except q single one, are unobJectionable-
That in which the guest is so highly compl-
mented, speaks, we imagine, the almost u
unanimous sentiment of the nation. Mr. Cal
houn has truly exerted ''his eminent talents to
promote the prosperity of the whole union"
His course, as a representative Of the people,
and as q member Of the Cabinet, has been
bold, decisive and full of beneficial results to
his country He has not, we think, overated
his services in his address to the citizens OF
AbbevilIe; but while we feel pride in &C
knowledging this, We regret that he should
have deemed it necessary to touch the late
presidential canvass-it was not called for by
the occasion. Having done so, however, he
should have been more explicit. He should
have avowed his sentiments freely and clearly
and not have resorted to insinuations. If We
understand the drift of his toast, and the re-
marks which Immediately preface it, he joins
in the clamor of McDufie and Ingham, and
charges the representatives ofthe people with
having betrayed their constituents. The
charge is as unfounded as II is INDIGENOUS. If
he means not this, we have been led into err
ror BY the ambiguity of his language, and on
asubject of such vital importance to the Peo-
pie, he should have been as clear as though he
had been demonstrating proposition from

Intelligence was received in Eng
land, the latter end of April, that a
bloody war had broken out in Syria
between the Druses and the Christians.
Famine was also dreaded by the in
habitants.
During the ten days preceding the
three last, we have had an unusual
spell Of wet weather. At intervals,
some of the most sudden and heaviest
rains have fallen within the recollec-
ton of the oldest inhabitants. In a
few hours, the low lands on the creeks
were completely inundated to the depth
of eight and ten feet. In many in
stances, the Planters prospects are al
most blighted, tobacco, cotton and
corn fields entirely destroyed. Where
yer plants can be procured they are
replanting. Milton, N. c. Go-. 9th.
