Having been absent, we have before this
failed TO acknowled ge the receipt Of the
wisconsin Democrat" a new paper, es
tablished at Madison, by Beriah Brown
We alluded TO the establishment of this
press, few weeks since, and expressed
strong doubts as TO the purity of the democ-
racy it was designed to advocate. Since
then, we have had the pleasure Of person.
al acquaintance with its editor who assures us
that we did him great injustice; that he is
now and always has been Democrat Of the
most radical school; and that the Ethiopian
can sooner change his skin, an the Leop-
ard his spots, than he can advocate aught
else; and TO do him justice his paper thus
far, fully suslains his assurances. We like
his views much and particularly in the last
number do we find an article on .progres-
sIve Democracy" which in the opinion ex-
pressed Of the tendency oftrue democracy

perfection, accords with our sentiments ful>
ly. 1t seems TO us,tbat man TO be good
democrat must entertain honestly, the opn-
ion that such is the tendency Of his creed
at all events, the man who does entertain
such sentiments must always be an ardent
and enthusiastic worker in the cause. We
regret however that Mr. Blown should have
seen fit to establish in opposition TO the Ar
gus,wh!ch we esteem most excellent dem
ocratic sheet, aud worthy of the undivided
support of the Democracy of the Territory,
which il now has and will doubtless keen.

Letter from The North Sale.

You have already been informed that North
Carolina is literally one vast continuous for
est, with here and there a notch converted
into a plantation; and with an occasional &C.
currence Of a village digniied with the
appellation of town, g few, and far be-
tween" In the country bordering on the
sea board, of which that between Whining
ton and Newbern is a fair specimen, this is
particularly the case. Every where, until
You have receded some twenty miles from
the ocean, you are wading through a dense
mass of sand fetlock deep TO your horse,
with lofty pines on your left hand, and pines
on your right hand, except now and then,
which you wallow over a corduroy road laid
on the bottom. The Carolinians of the low
country never throw a bridge over a run,
stream, or swamp, that can possibly be for
ded. Hence you are sometimes brought &c
a full halt on your journey at one OF these
delectable passes after a heavy rain, with
the comfortable alternative of either try
ing yonr luck at swim, or stopping in the
woods for a night or two, or vending your
way back again las you please. And should
the place be tordable at the time, perhaps
you may find the water up to your saddle
pads; and you are compelled to splash on
wards over the submerged corduroy road
half a mile or more, laid on the bottom with
split logs, the sharp corners invariably laid
upwards. 1t is a very pleasant aquatic eX-
%cursion, that same, your horse foundering and
staggering among the logs beneath, and your
self and carriage, with the most perseveTing
competition with each each other, p laying Il

And scourged to bitterest selfdenial.
Thus heart-sick, wrote he line on line,
With hollow cheek and eye of sadness;
While hyacinth and leafy vine

The soaring lark hymned joy unending-
While thoughts day laborer, worn and pale
Over his weary book was bending.
Yet though his heart sent forth a cry,
Still strove he for the great ideal;

And human life this fierce ordeal!'
And when his courage left him quite.
One thought kept hope his heart alive in,

MEcHANIcs.-No class of the community
has cause ofeel greater interest in the sub
ject Of education, than mechanics For what
is it that has cast reproach upon the hon
est exercise Of the mechanic arts in the es-
timation of aristocratic pride, if it is not the
too common want ofeduoation in those who
exercise these arts? 1t is not the perfor-
nance Of manual labor which constitutes the
stigma upon whole class, but the deiicien-
cy of intellectual training,
Hence we find that in those States where
education is universal, mans occupation, if
it is honest, has no influence upon his con-
sideration as gentleman and scholar-many
instances might be mentioned of men in the
highest stations, who were bred mechanics
and have labored with their hands for a
livelihood.
Let mechanics see to it, that their sons
are well educated; not with the silly idea
of dressing them up to ape the idle sons OF
wealth, or strut about young sprigs ofsome
profession, but educate them to be mechon-
ics; let them have the benefit of the best
schools and all the facilities for learning that
can be given them, and at suitable age learn
such trade as their taste may select; and
mechanical pursuits will not only be the
most useful but honorable and respectable
All that are educated will not become dis
tnguished as scholars, perhaps very few, but
no one can say beforehand who shall be sue
cessful. No rank or wealth can secure it.

ed in vain. Sup from some obscure cor

" reasonable men," who are stumbling-blocks
in the pathway Of the Temperance reior-

never been a temperate drinker, there never

an unreasonable one. So long as there are
moderate drinkers, SO long will there be
drunkards. They are the stock from whence
the drunkard springs. They are " beasts''

TERRIBLE STEAMBOAT DISASTER.
From the New Orleans Picayune Of December "a.
From the officers of the Diamond, arrived
yesterday, we learn that on the night OF the
18th instant the steamboat Belle Za'ae, Capt.
Brazier, while on her way from GAINESVILLE,
Ohio, 10 this city, struck snag about twelve
miles below the mouth Of White river, on the
Mississippi, and Immediately turned bottom
up. Ii was about IL O'Clock when the ac-
cident occurred. and the night was bitter cold.
Out Of some ninety souls on board at the
time, upwards offfly persisted By this terri
Die accident, some Of the unfortunate victims
only escaping being drowned to freeze to
death after reaching the shore! AT the time
of the disaster, of course, the passengers
were all asleep in their berths, and so sud
denly did the boat careen and 60 over, that
such as made out to release themselves were
only able to snatch blanket or counterpart
from their beds--they had no time to save,
much less put on their clothing. The Off
GERS Of the Diamond, which came along
short time after, picked up sixteen of the pas
sengers, who, after suffering incredibly from
the cold, were kindly landed at Napoleon,
where the balance of those saved on the Ar
kansaw side, had previously assembled. The
names Of those lost have not been ascertain
ed, except Mr.. Bowen, lady and child, of
GAINESVILLE. There were five ladies on board,
all Of whom were saved, except Mrs. B. The
cargo Of the Belle Zane, and the United States
mail, from Louisville, Memphis, and mouth
of the Ohio river, together with the boat and
fixtures, are total loss. Six Of the unfor-
tunate passengers came as far as this city.
Their names are : John P. Nesle, of Albany,
New York; James Sheridan, John Mick,
Robert III. Foster, J. Gibson, and Henry
Platte The feet Of some of them are SO
badly frost-bitten that they are unable to use
them.
