reader will see that considerable portion OF
our columns are taken up by the Post Master
Generals advertisement of Proposals for car
rying the Mail, on the various routes IN North
Carolina. After this week, we will endeavor
so to arrange matters that this 6 business of
the Departmento will not interfere with our
usual quota of interesting leading matter.
However, we are compelled to publish the mat

His Excellency also calls upon the Coloneis

their men as soon as practicable, and muster
Volunteers according to the present requi-

0GThe Charleston Courier of the 9Th inst,
contains an advertisement OF Capt. Williamson
of the United States Arsenal at Charleston, for
one hundred active, brave, young men, for
the Ordnance Department. The Captain says
that this corps will be the best fed, best paid,
and the best equipped, OF any that has yet
been raised; and in addition to this, that it
will always be in advance, where the hardest
fighting is to bedone. So here is capital
chance for those who wish to distinguish
themselves.

LATEST FROM THE LEGIsL ATuRE.

LATEST FROM The LEGlSLAIURE.
Our limits will not permit us to give the
proceedings of the Legislature up to Saturday,
the latest dates in our possession. We give
in varions forms, those things which
we think will most interest our readers. On
the latter part of last week, a long and deeply
interesting discussion took place on the Bill
for re-districting the State. Mr.. Rayner-the
father of the Bill-received at the hands of
Mr.. Flemming, of Yancey, most terrible
execration. We understand Mr. Yancey's
speech will be written out for the press, when
we will give it to our readers. The election
of Attorney General occupied portion of the
time of both Houses on Friday and Saturday,
but Edw. Stanly was elected on the latter day.
So the claims of B. F. Moore, of Halifax, had
to yield to the Raleigh clique. Well, let the
Feds settle the matter amongst themselves
For our own part we would have much pre-
ferred Mr.. Moore; but as the Democrats had
no voice in the matter, we must take things as
they come. We give elsewhere two short arti
cles from the Raleigh Standard OF Wednesday
which we think will be read with interest
We thank the Editor for his liberal feelings
towards Wilmington. He writes like a liberia
hearted North Carolnian

THE RALEIGH REGISTER ON REDS
TRICTING.


= Well, really we are sometimes highly anu
sed at the cogitations of the Raleigh Register.
The Register has long enjoyed the reputation
Of being somewhat reckless in the avowal of
it's political sentiments Its reputation, too,
for jumping into matters headforemost with
out looking, has been equally well establish
ed. That paper of the 4th inst says
ssThe Bill introduced by Mr.. RAYNER, of
Hartford, in the House of Commons, to lay Oft
the State into new Congressional Districts, pro-
poses the following arrangement of them,
which will be found, on an examination Of
the Map, to be of as nearly equal population
as can be, and to be, in all respects, conven-
lent and proper-with no unnatural association
of diverse interests, for the sake ofgaining po-
litical strength-no disregard of conhguity,
similarity Of pursuits, or harmony of inter
eSts''
Well, according to our reading of the mat
ter, this is about as barefaced a pull upon the
credulity of the people of North Carolina, as
has ever made its appearance in print; econ
venent and proper' Just let the reader take
up the map OF the State and run his eyes over
he counties composing the Eighth District,
according to this equitable" plan of Mr.. RAY
NER. Are the counties of Wayne and Tyrrell
very contiguous-very convenient''-and
very much alike in interest? Bah! Are not
the counties composing the Third District very
compact any very cOntiguous' Just glance
| at the map and see how very contiguous Lin
coin, Richmond and Moore are. Why, there
never was more unauthorized specimen OF
Gerrymandering perpetrated since the world
was, than the present scheme OF the Federal
lists of North Carolina presents. See again,
the two most important commercial towns in
the State thrown into one District; and yet the
Editor of the Federal organ at Raleigh has the
reckless hardihood to pen the paragraph which
we have just quoted A little further on in
his article, the Register says, that the FEEDER.
alists, with a lberalty unprecedented, have
given to the Democrats four out of the nine

gsz-On the 5th instant, the following resolu-
ton was introduced in the Senate OF the South
Carolina Legislature by MIR. Moses. We
learn from private source that there IS no
doubt but that the spirit of the resolution will
meet with the appreciation of the South Caro-
lima Legislature. The State has now on hand
about eight OF nine hundred thousand dollars,
which she has set apart for works of internal
improvement. and there is no doubt but our
road stands as good chance as any other to
get share of this sum-
RESOLVED, That the Committee on Finance
and Banks be instructed to enquire and report
on the expediency and proprlety of providing
by law for the subscription, on the part OF the
State, for an amount of stock, equal to two
thirds of the amount taken by stockholders in
any rail road company, to be chartered by the
State-the same subscription to be paid by
proceeds of sale at par, of any portion Of the
State stock in the South Carolina Railroad
Company due the State-or any portion OF the
surplus revenue which may be hereafter re-
ceived from the Federal Government under
the Act of Congress; and that the said Com
mittee have leave to report by bill or other
wise. The resolution was agreed to.

HONOR TO THE GALLANT DEAD.

HONOR TO THE GALLANT DEAD.
The honored remains Of the gallant Major
Ringgold passed through this town on Tues
day last, on their way 10 Baltimore They
were accompanied by the Committee deputied
by the citizens of that city to convey them
home for interment in his native soil. 1t will
be remembered that Major Ringgold fell whilst
bravely leading on his troops at the ever me-
morable battle of Palo Alto. His remains were
received here with every mark OF respect
The steamboat which conveyed them from
Charleston stopped at the foot OF Market street.
where the coffin containing the illustrious dead
was received by the Clarendon Horse Guards,
Brigadier General MarstelIer and Staff, and the
Military officers of the town, all IN full uni
form. A procession was then formed which
accompanied the corpse to the Railroad Depot,
where it was deposited on the Cars. All the
vessels is port lowered their flags to half-mast,
the Church bells tolled, and the Band played
the appropriate Dead March, during the process
sion. We understand that similar course
has been pursued by almost every town and
city through which the body of the gallant
dead has passed, May his honored remains
s,eep in peace!
Below we publish the letter of DR.. F. S.
Brownson, to Brig. Gen. MarsteNer, and others,
which will explain itself:

Tuesday, IL o'clock, m.
| Gentlemen-Owing to the hurry and short
space of time allowed, the Baltimore Commit
tee, consisting of Major J. J. Griffith, Capt
M. LETTERS, and Lieut.. Settler, had no opportu-
nifty of returning their thanks to the citizens
of Wilmington, for the patriotic manner in
which they were received, and the public de-
monstration manifested over the remains of
Major Ringgold.
The Committee tender to your citizens,
through you, as also to others-to Whining
ton Steam Packet and Railroad Company
their cheerful acknowledge for the hopors
conferred
Accept, also, my Acknowledgements for the
very courteous manner in which the escort
was conducted, and for the Inequalities mani

that the State Of New. York is still DEMOCRATIC,

let it be so taken. But first we remark that
BY some means or other, the whole anti-rent
influence was arrayed against the Democratic
Congressional candidates. Not Democrat "a IS

again the split in the Democracy affected the
Congressional ticket very seriously. But al
ter all is said and done, we are prepared TO
show that more votes were given for Demo-

for Wings. We do not say by whom they

the Wing Congressman received large num-
