which are the means OF sweeping OIL Hundreds
and Thousands Of the most blOumlng children
and youth, severing The chords Of affection, and
forever blasting the fondest hopes of the parent.
So great has their efficacy invariably proven, that
they may we'll be called the only certain worm
destroying medicine in use, and the greatest dis
covery ever made for expelling the various kinds
Of worms that frequently and distressingly
annoy both children and adults. They are ceI-

THE MARKETS.
New YoRK, Octc

NEW YORK, October TO-
Since our last, we have received dates from Eu-
rope to the 18Th ult, which has had good deal of
Influence on our market. Flour and wheat have
both advanced in consequence of the news, and
very considerable sales have been made. The
Cotton market, however, has become depressed,
and slight dec Inc has been submitted to. The
filling up of the Erie Railroad has given increased
confidence TO business. This, with the prospect of
continued peace, has given new life and conf
dence. The weather is now delightful, and our
city is crowded with strangers We have rarely
seen SO many strangers in cur streets, and our
hotels overhowing. The travelling on the
North River is truly astonishing; the number of
boats and their extraordinary size is altogether
unprecedented, and the fare has been reduced to
mere trifie. We have never known a time when
there has been much calculation for future busi-
ness at present. Merchants and tradesman of
all kinds making large calculations for the fu-
ture. Manufacturers of every kind doing
most prosperous busInessI-cottons. particularly,
Notwithstanding the increased quantity made,
seem TO be in as active demand as ever. . =

amount due him by bond on the lst inst. And al
so, that he tender to him the payment Of 81 900
due Oct.l 1916, on the deduction ofinterest. And,
in case Mr. Rand should refuse to accept the ad-
vance payment, that the Treasurer loan out the sum
of 81 900 to be secured by a. Bond approved by
the Intendant and Treasurer Agreed to. ss..s

!" Mr.. Calhoun. There appears to ke no doub
that Mr.. Calhoun will return to the Senate in place
of Gov. McDuffie. AT this particular crisis, his
character and experience may be of great service
to the country" '.-.' --.... Il. -
We see the foregoing creditedto the New York
Sun. We presume that Gen. McDutfie will mol
resign, but will return to Washington as Senator
There has, however, been rumor both Of his re-
sgnation and that Of Judge Huger-both from
the same cause, infirm health. Should vacancy
occur we have no doubt that the voice OF the State
would, with entire unaninity, call on Mr.; Cal
houn to resume his former station. We know,
however, that he would prefer life of retirement
and devotion to his present pursuits. But in the
existing state of our political, especially our for
eign affairs, 1--WE refer particularly to the Oregon
question and our relations with England,) his
presence in the Senate might prove highly ad.
vantageous in maintaining both the honor and
peace of the country. And it is, we think, to be
presumed, that if the State which has for so long
a time, given him her unvarying confidence, should
again demand his services, he would not feel at
liberty to refuse them. cFs. .sgsss

THE NEXT GOVERNOR.

The last Wilmington Journal comes out lot
Convention to nominate candidate for Govern
or, but disagreess with the Jefersonian as to the
time for holding it. The Journal thinks the 0th
of January too early, and seems to prefer some
time in February He desires to give the people
full time to hold meetings and appoint Delegates.
The Editor of the Journal concludes his article
with the following remarks:
"From the present position of the State, we
can elect Democratic Governor if we try We
can too, and will have Democratic Legislature.
To secure both these desirable ends our strongest
man must be placed before the people as our can
didate for Governor How can this be done
Some think lhatsthe best plan would De, TOR the
respective counties to hold meetings. and nomlnale
diTectIy whatever individual might be the choice
of such meetings thereby dispensing with State
Convention Others and we think that those who
take correct view of the matter, think that meet
ines be called forthwith in the respective counties
which meetings would appoint delegates to State
Convention to be held at Raleigh. These meet
ings might recommend any individual they chose,
subject to the decision Of the General Convention.
This in our humble judgment, is the only proper
and legitimate way in which a candidate can be
presented to the people. Its true if all the coun-
lies were to nominate the same individual, then
Convention might be dispensed with. But this
cannot be expected. Besides the life and spirit
which Convention infuses into the party, the
mutual interchange of views between the dele
gates, would be of great advantage. Then Con-
Venton puts to rest any little eaousie which may
exist between different sections Of the State. The
man upon whom the choice of the Convention
might fall, will be almost certain to carry with
him through the contest the enthusiastic support
of every Democrat in the State. Whereas if he
was brought before the people in any other way,
there might be some room for dissention. We
therefore 90 for ConYention"

CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR.

The Mecklenburg Jeffersonian has suggested
the idea of having Democratic Convention, for
the purpose of nominating candidate for Gov
ernor, to be held in Raleigh, on the eighth of Jan.
uary next. We think as the Jefersonian thinks
that we should have Convention for the purpose
of nominating candidate for Governor, and we
also think that it is full time some steps were ia
ken, in order that it may be held on the day above
proposed 1t is time for the Democratic party, tc
be organized, and ready for the contest the State
must be regenerated; at the next election, and
brought back &c, her once elevated station, among
her sister States. Let it not be said, that here al
in Massachusetts and Vermont, federalism has O
resting place. Then we say that it is time for US
to be thinking about who shall be chosen, to lead
US on through the approaching contest. = ..
