GLORIOUS NEWS I

We learn from the Providence Gazette that
Charles Jackson, Esq the Wing Derr candidate
for Governor in Rhode Island, has been elected
over Gov. Fenner the regular Wing Algspine
candidate. The people of Rhode Island have
thus declared by their votes for the Unconditional
liberation of Mr., Dorr. The total vote, three
towns not heard from, is for Jackson 1926
F:enner 7,442 The majority will be increased
by the towns to be. heard from. The Hon,
Elisha Potter is defeated for Congress; by Samuel
Il. Arnold, Esq. liberation Whig. Ten good
Dorrte democrats are elected to the Senate, and
twenty-six to the House. It is also thought that
majority of the Legislature are favorable to
the liberation of the patriot Dorr., Thus have
the Whig despcts been rebuked, and thus by the
people viii the principles of the Declaration of
Independence be vindicated and sustained.

HON. DAVID s. REID.

The Globe Of the 2fst March contains an ex
celIent Circular from the Hon David S.. Reid 10
his constituents of Caswell, Rockingham, Stokes
Surry, Wilkes and Ashe. Mr.. Reid has proved
himself an able and faithful Representative, and
we hope he will yield to the wishes of his con-
sttuents and consent to serve them still further
The next session will be an important one and
he would act his part in it, VIC doubt not, with
prudence, patriotism, and sagaci,y.
We shall publish his Circular next week.

RALEIGH POST OFFICE.

William White, Esq has been appointed by
the President Postmaster at this City in place of
Capt Thomas G.. Scott, resigned. Mr.. White
has resided here number of years, is sound
and consistent democrat. and will doubtless make
a faithful and accommodating Officer. A better
appointment, in our opinion, could not have been
made. -as
Capt Scott goes out of Office according to his
OWN desire, after long term Of service, which
has been marked by singular fidelity and honesty.
The frosts Of Time have done their work upon
the head of the gallant old man but his heart is
still as fresh and his nature as noble and generous
in its impulses as it was when, as Petersburg
volunteer, he shouidered his musket and marched
to the defence of his country May many bles-
sings and much happiness be his; and may the
remnant of his days be as bright the regards of
his numerous friends are sincere and kind

The President and a second term We re-
grct to see an effort making by one of the cor
respondents Of the New York Herald to make
the impression that President Polk either has or
ought 10 have an eye TO second term Nothing
would be more pr,judicial TO the success of the
administration than the prevalence of>a suspicion
that Mr. Polk could be induced to become can.
didate for reelection. In accepting the nomina-
ton Of the BaIumore Coventi n, he voluntarily
restricted his services to single term. This
pledge was made after full d4libpration to redeem
it in good faith. The democratic party without
execution approved this determination, aud elect
ted Mr. Polk under full conviction that at the
end of four years he would retire to private life
We feel perfectly warranted in saying, that any
and every intimation, that be has ever for mo-
men entertained the idea of reelection is wholly
unfnunded. He entered upon the duties of his
office with fixed resolution, to- administer the
government with an eye single to the advance
ment Of the best interests of the couutry--relyno
firmly upon the generous support. of his fellow,
ctizens and not doubling that his own reputation.

shall expire, he will assuredIy retire and leave

~ 1t is we'll TO note, as we have been in
formed, that the cotton crop of DR.. T. N PouI-
lain, amounting to 169 bales, which was sold last
week in this MARKET obtained the price of 6 3-8
cents. which was at least cne cent more per lb.
than the average price orother crops in this mar.
ket. This high price,is IS owing to the manner the
cotton was handled and ginncd We learn that
this cotton was ginncd by one of Carver's patent
gins. 1t is due. however, to other gin makers, to
say that they arc. making gins not much behind
IN work, TO the patent ones Should the ginning
OF cotton be well attended to hereafter, by our
planters, we have no doubt that Georpia Cotton
will stand in the. European markets on par with
other cottons. and that the injury of one half of
cent generally sustained by the Georgia planters
IN the sale oftheir produce, will not hereafter be
len, to the amount of about one hundred and fifty
thousand dollars annually. o5o 81 III .. -,

ANNEXATION OF TEXAS.

We have never doubted at any time, since the
agitation of the question, tl,at Texas would be
annexed to the Union We have been for it all
along In 1888 we were for it, and VIC still oc-
cupv the ground from which very many promn-
pnt North Carolinians have. since that period,
recedei Difficulties may be in the way now
perhaps there arc some which it may not be quite
easy to surmount but repeat, whatever others
may say that in our opinion the great question
will soon be settled in such way as to secure
! Texas and save the Union. True, the late intel
fieence from Texas may be regarded as in
slight degree unflvorabIe. The President OF that
Republic, DR.. Jones' and Grn. Houston I've
doubt as to the latter| are said TO be against it.
but, so FIR as we have been able to form judgment
from the public prints, we should say nin"-rnlhS
of the people of Texas are in favor Of annexation.
There may BE-, and there doubtless is, orp ,sition
in Texas to the House Rrsolu ions bnt The bill
Of Mr.. Haywood, which introduced in the
Senate by Mr. Walker, and added TO the House
Resolutions, commils the matter in n great degree
to the management of President Polk, who, we
are sure will leave no effort untricd TO carry Tor
ward and complete the measure. No one can
foresee what may transpire during thr ensuing
summer. Under the latter clause Of the entire
I'LL negotiators may he employed, the terms
agreed upon between the two Republics, ana d
Treaty submitted in few months to the Senate
and ratified This would settle The question al
once
In the mean time we advise the friends ol
Texas 10 stand firm The Coon is stunnFd-ho'

nexation and no device will be overlooked ]"
