NAUTICAL AND MERCANTILE
SCHOOL,


INHE subscribers beg leave to inform the citizens
of Wayne and the adjoining counties, that
they have opened an English, Classical, Mercan-
tile and Mathematical School, in the town of
Goldsborough.
The Senior instructor Mr.. JOHN ROBINSON, Is
a practical and experienced Teacher, having for
the last ten years stood at the head of his profess
sion III Europe, as the many fatterng testimonials
in his possession will show. William Robinson
hatters himself that he is already favorably known
in this region, as teacher who has always been
faithful in the discharge of Duty and successful in
imparting instruction and would, therefore throw
himself upon his old patrons OF Wayne, Lenoir,
and Edgecombe-in which counties he has spent
the last nine years-for a share Of that patronage
which they always so cheerfully bestowed upon
him.
Mr. John Robinson will superntend the Eng
fish, Mercantile, and Mathematical department,
and give instruction in the Italian and French
languages-also in instrumental music, If requlr-
ed Vocal music will constitute part OF The daily
exercises of the pupils
Mr.. William Robinson will superintend the
Classical department.
They have built and fitted up a new School
Room, and hope that their effort to establish a
School of high literary merit in this rising and
fiourishng town, will not be in vain. They COM
mence it on individual enterprise, and under the
most discouraging circumstances, and rely upon
the merits of the Institution alone for support
The School is now in operation, and those who
wish to avail themselves CT its advantages, are re-
ouested to make no delay in entering, that the
classes may be properly and advantageously or
gained.
For further particulars, apply 20 either of the
subscribers. JOHN ROBINSON,

English 1aration.-The English govern
ment is about TO propose an increase of expen-
ditures, and of course, an increase on the al
ready enormous amount of taxation. The
sums now levied upon the people, in one form
or another, more or less direct, is, in round
numbers, S4OO, 100000. Of this vast amount,
about three-quarters is raised by customs and
excise duties, stamps, crown lands, &C., $780,
100000 is obtained by local taxation, such as
poor-rates, borough-rates, church-rates, &C.;
and say SAC, 900 by the 1.-THE rent-charge,
including the whole revenue of the church
and the universities not derived from fees. In
this way, it is calculated, the government ap-
proprates one-tifth part of the property of ev-
cry industrious man in the community-that
is, every individual pays in taxes TO support
the extravaganza of the government, twenty
dollars out of every hundred which his labor
produces. No wonder an Englshman's idea
of the United States is land free from tax

DEAR SRA rumor Is in circulation and in
dusriously kept up by designing persons, that
DR.. lien one Of The Democratic nominees has
declared himself in favor Of Tho election OF Gen.
Hampstead. 10 I'LL the vacancy occ0s!Oned by the
death Of Col. Ashley.
This report is circulated by his enemies with "A
view to his injury; and predictions are made by
democrats or those who have always pretended
TO be-thut he would be defe7ted. Strange 10
tell the rumor and the prediction come from
Hampstead men, and tha! ought 10 be sufficient
hint to the most uBsuspcctug, that DR.. Allen Is
dealt unfairly by. These mon being for Hemp
stead. and If they had believed DR.. A. was for
The same man, they would not predict his de-
feat.
A room for cavilIin-, on that subject is re-
moved. DR. Allen who has been closely engag-
cd at home on his farm, and ignorant Of these
unfair attempts to 10 JIre him, has nevertheless
written to gentleman at this place, expressing
his high qualification at loarning that Iu-gc Old
ham has submitted his name to the people, in ref.
orence to the L. S. Seuatorship; and in terms
most culoGislc speaks of Boriand and Oldham
as the men Of his choice. Ilo also speaks OF
Gen. Hampstead for whom he entortains, a very
high opinion, but he does not intimate that his
preference lies in that quarter.
DR.. Allen is one Of your true and firm mea.
without guile aud is distinguished for his mauli-
ness and candOuT; which qualities may make him
a few enemies, but most assured!y secure him
the respect Of the largest portion of his elbow
citizens who know hm. As 10 the opinion tina,
he will DO defeated, ''tbe wish is fainer 10 the

EVERY ONE PLEAsED.-We never witnessed
such happy condition Of things now exists
among our citizens. All sides are pleased with
their nominees. The richest part Of all is to wit
ness the surprise of whig brethren, that we
the news reached here of the nomination of Gen.
Taylor. In vain they hunted about to see sodatc
coun;enance among the democrats. Often did
they inquire how do the democrats take it e"
What puts the democrats.i in such good humor
at hearing of this nomination 90 They could not
account for it and thought that '' something is the
matter" We merely replied that if all the wings
were as we'll pleased with their nomination we
were, that every one would BE pleased, and the
result in November would explain all these mex
plicabe appearances.
Was there ever canvass that the wings were
not sangune Were they not confident when
they beaten by Jackson, Van Buren,, and
Polk? Always. Did defeat ever dishearten
them u! No. Then, why should we be disheart-
ened to witness the eIation in their ranks We
have the best men of our party, and it is
stronger now than it has ever been. The wings
have acknowledged by laying aside their champi-
on-the embodiment; of their principles that their
party is not strong enough. They prefer their
best man-ther most talented one-lhe one who
has for years been the untring advocate Of their
principles, and he would receive the vote of the
whole whig party. But they know the whole
whg party cannot elect President
We know that this admission of our strength
will draw US still closer together, and enable US
to elect the representatives OF our principles
men who were not put up on account Of their
availability, but for the certainty of their Prnci,
pies. And we know for all the reasons above
mentioned that inevitable triumph will be our
good fortune. Therefore, take the news OF
the nomination in good humor, and declare that il
the wings are satisfied, we are. Then, every
ono is pleased
