HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF NORTH CAROLINA

We have received from the President of the Historical
Society of the University of North Carolina its first report
for which return thanks The association should be
cherished BY every lover Of his State and each citizen should
feel himself especially called upon further the objects Of this
Society: The history of North Carolina has been long
unwnen and she has suffered much from the ignorance
which has in consequences prevailed to the part she bore in
struggle for independence In letter before
dated l774 from of the npest scholars and saga
cous minds in North Carolina to his friend in London
extract " 10 you that North Carolina
will be behind any Of her sister Colonies virtue and
steady adherence such resolves the Continental Congress-
sitting Philadelphia, shall adopt In another letter.
dated 9th August l774, Mr. William Hooper writes to his
friend Judge Iredel The people of Cape Fear have
vessel loaded with provisions for the support of Boston The
subscription in few days amounted to fs00 and in all other
respects they discover proper resentment for the injuries
done that people Again. extract from papers our
possession dated 9th November 1885, During the whole of
the late war, he of the Revolution whenever the neigh
boring Sites invaded North Carolina to lend
them assistance We have in the Of
paign 5000 1000 men Of the North Carolina militia in
South Carolina, their march to its relief and she
counts 1900 1900 of her citizens who fell sacrifice in
Georgia South Carolina their zeal for the welfare the
Union We say nothing of the Continental ne those
who fell within the State while the enemy pervaded every part
Of it. Is probable that such armies could be supported with
out money Surely not. But North Caroline uniformly
supported and paid her militia, though they in the
Continental service and she furnished provisions to consi
derabe part Of the Continental troops in the Southern armies
Who has paid for the consumed by such bodies of
armed In other States commissioners were appointed
to settle the claims Of individuals against the United States
and certificates for many millions issued by those com
msoners but such officers have had occasion to settle
North Carolina because the State assumed all the
debts Of her citizens due by the Unon except small balance
due the Continental line These debts amounted to several
millions" These, have every believe are the
words Of Gen. RoBEnr HowE Of Wilmington, who could
speak knowingly Of the treated Of he commanded
at the South We know that Of the North Carolina
troops in the Southern army paid neither by the State
by the Union but the commanding officer But we have
not room to say more and have already said enough
show that much ignorance prevails the subject Of the early
history Of North Carolina that great injustice has been done
her iustous dead II is enough, them that the
object Of the Historical Society to repair this Injustice to re-
this evil to the hearty cooperation OF every
North Caroinian whose soul il not dead within him.

STRIKING RrsuLrs..The unexampled prosperity of the
Free Church Of Scotland since its secession from the estab-

traiion of the efficiency Of the voluntary principle In the
short space of years this Church has collected and
pended in its various religious operations three millions SIX
thousand and twenty-five dollars, exclusive of $685. 900 for
building schoohouses and for the endowment Of their
college, which would swell the amount to nearly four
millions

$40 churches have been erected expense OF f335 000

Agricultural Fairs almost without exception, If we may
believe the testimony of the local presses have this year been
uncommony successful We regard this as one Of the most
cheering signs Of the times indicating, as i docs that tho
people Of this country beginning to appreciate the relative
importance Of agricultural pursuits The badge Of the farm
er will ere long become the sign Of intellectual superiority IS
it is now to some good extent Of integrity and moral worth
There i no employment which furnishes constant and
heahf stimulus to the intellectual powers which Is beset
with fewer temptations. Why then should farmer be a
mere drudge, moving among the most beautiful creations Of
naure with scarcely more consciousness OF the snnoblng
sort Of farmers annually becoming scarce and trust the
whole race will ere long disappear.

0r1- From the last number Of the Esprit
Of The Times" received at this office, We
infer that Mr.. Kirkman and his sporting
friends who went north with him, have
been most essentially used up--some o.
them broke hat---by the shrewd, calculst-
ing northerners and Guessed Yankees
They have badly beaten his whole stable,
Peylona included and raked'him and his
friends for "a pile.' Well, who cares =
: is any body down but the gamblers!
The mare Fashion isstil the champion
of the turf, and her friends offer 10 back
her for 100000 against any horse IN
christendom. II now conceded on all
hands that she was in bad condition on the
day Of the first match. In addition to this,
she was excessively frightened. Fashion
is represented as timid, docie animal, as
gentle as lady's palfrey, and Of the meek
est possible dispostion--so much so that a
child can manage her. "For more than an
hour before the match, she was in the en-
closed space behind the lady's pavilion,
between it and the railroad, and within
six rods of three locomotives! So excess
sive was her fright that before led on to
the course through the crowd, she was
obliged to be uncloihed and 'scraped' twice.
When brought up to start in the midst OF
dense and turbulent crowd, she was in an
agony of fear, and as much covered with
perspiration as after the heat was run p
So says the Spirit. Peytona, on the con-
trary, is bold, fearless hussey, not at all
dashed by crowd--was in tiptoP condi-
ton at the first match, bu. has not been fit
to run since.
