JOEL EATON, Esq. Postmaster, Woodstock, Vermont
These letters on one sheet were franked, but
Mr. Eaton, being no longer Postmaster, was com.
oelled to pay 25 cents for them. A Postmaster
1t Woodstock is expected to take on his own
risb, only fifty or sirty copies. How many, we
wonder, are sadded on the Postmasters of large
Cities If in fair proportion, we venture to say,
hat there never was book issued in our coun-
ry, that show so large an edition as the pub

| The less that is spoken Of the better It is really
notifying to reflect that this forcing on the Post.
masters the life Of Mr.. Tyler is going on through.
| ,ut the whole length and breadth Of the land
The Postmaster dare not, with the insnuations
oalpable in these letters before him, refuse 10 take
the designated number of COPIES or he will be
superseded by more proper tool. Letters simi.
lar to these have appeared BEFORE but we have
foEbore to speak Of them, as it is supposed that
nothing mean and ignoble from our Executive
can surprise or interest any one. Like martyrs,
all are waiting the slow lapse Of the year.
GT The WHle STATE CONVENTION of North
Carolina met at Raleigh on the 9Th inst.-lst, to
to nominate candidate for Governor Of the
State Cd, to discuss the course to be adopted as
| 70 the Vice Presidency, and Sd, to select two
| Delegates to the Baltimore National Convention.
! GEORGE E. SPRu1LL Esq. was elected President
of the Convention. Fifty-two Counties were
represented in the Convention, and 200 delegates
were present. From the reports, we find that il
was glorious gathering Of the Wings of Caro-.
lima. Enthusiasm, faith, resolution, unanimty-
all entered into the Convention. Just as it should
be-just as it is, from one end of the land to the
other, among our well ordered ranks.
The Committee ordered TO report on the three
subjects mentioned above brought in for Govern.
,r Hon. WILLIAM A. GRAHAM, of Orange. On
he subject of the Vice Presidency they reported
the following resolution:
ResOred TMat the Wings Of North Carolina will sup
a;ed by that Convention.
For Delegates, it was
ReSoyed, That EDWARD B. DUDLEY Of New Hanover,
md GEoRGE r. BADGER of Wake be appointed Delegate
the Wing Convention which is assemble in Baltmor,
,n the month of May next.
Other spirited resolutions ware passed, and Sc
veral sterling addresses made.
SourH CARoLINA.-The Governor Of this State

non jail when ashore. Right after this, in tb,
| same message, he recommends also not to be owe,
sensitive on the subject OF slavery, as their rights
are too clear and power Of self-defence too strong
| to have any fear, and then branches off into a
| little bombast on the subject, not thinking how
| little it comported with his tyrannical recommen
dation In the outset.
VIRGINIA LEGlsLATuRE.-Mr. Taliaierro, from
the Committee on Elections, made report or
the memorial of William B. Davis, complaining

Queen, was improperly returned The repor
