Editorial Correspondence.
DEAR FRlEND:-

DEAR FRIEND -
Did We think i; desirable to tell you of all
the adventures that have Def lien us since
we last wrote, Of the lre5hets that have eros
Sed our path, OF the heavy roads over
which we have travelled or rather Mrough
which we have plunged, of our getting lost
In the woods on our way to meeting and wan
dering about in the mud and darkness which
were nearly equal in thickness, we could fill
several sheets in which the iudicrous and
melancholy would both be conspicuous
But these things would be less instructive
than amusing. Our last letter, we believe,
was dated from Sligo. Since then we have
held meetings in a private house near Oak
land, at Mt. Pleasant where our expected
audience was prevented from coming-many
of them, at least-by the sudden rising of a
creek between the meeting house and village
where most OF them lived, at Port William,
at Antioch, at New Vienna, and at Beeson's
= Roads. The last named place is in High
land Co. all the others in Clinton.
QUAKER INFLUENCE.
In those sections Of country whore Quaker
meeting houses abound and Quaker influence
prevails, our gatherings have generally been
small, and where to this is added Liberty
party siayawayism it seems about impossi-
BILE to get The people to hear or to reflect
"What is the reason" said we to a friend at
one OF our meetings, "that so few are in al
tendance :" ''Dccause we have two Quaker
meeting houses here" was the significant
reply. At one place where we lectured we
were informed that a Quaker elder contem-
plated making a descent upon US and driving
US from the meeting house, and was only
restrained by the consciousness that her tenn
per sometimes flashed like gunpowder, and
that all explosion would be likely to ensue if
she came in contact with abolitionists. And
yet she probably would claim to be as much
opposed to slavery as anybody, and we sup
pose manifested that opposition by proposing
to a ~neighbor who had invited her TO name
his child, that he should call it Winfield
Scott; whether she wished also to give it the
prefix of Generah we did not learn.
MEETING AT PoRT WILLIAM.
At this place we were offered our choice
Of meeting houses, Disciple or Methodist
We held our meeting in the former, and had
a large attendance both in the day and eve
ming In the evening We had some discus
sion with q secrde. f-om the Pro;estsr, Moth

ries Of resolutions before the Legislature, we
extract the following:
Resoieed, That the General Assembly Of
the State Of South Carolina have seen, with
profound regret, the settled spin. Of hostility
manifested by the free States toward the in.
siItniions Of the South: a spirit which, i fper.
sisted in, must inevitably lead to the mos,
disastrous consequences to the Coniederacy.
Res0iced, That the recent DEVELOPMENTS in
the free States, and especially the attempt
known as the "Wilmot Proviso," to prohib.
It the Southern States from enjoying the com
mon territory Of the Union, raise an issue Of
Startling Importance, which requires on the
part OF the South, frm, energetic and united
action.
Reso}re3, That the State of South Caroli-
ma will regard the passage of any act by the
General Government upon the subject Of
Slavery, in violation ofihe rights of the South.

IMPORTANT FROM FRANCE.

By the arrival of the Steamship Niagara at Boston,
we. are put in possession Of intelligence week
later from FIance.
One of the bloodiest dramas which the history of
France has ever had to record has been enacted in
the streets of Paris. On the 22d of June insur-
rection broke in Paris and for four days the bat
tie ragged between the government troops and the in
surgents. Fourteen general officers, six Deputies,
and 25, 900 men were killed and wounded The in
surrecon is supposed to have been fomented by the
emissares Of Louis PHILIPPE of some of the mon
archies of Europe; and the hope was that the Re-
public would be overthrown. The carnage is said
have been horrible. The streets of Paris for four
days and nights red with blood25O, 900 National
Guards and Government troops opposed to 1O0,-

who thushad their assailants at fearful odds. But
thanks TO an oyerruling Providence, the Republic
the beloved Republic Of the immortal Lamartine tri-
umphed and rode out the storm! May not hope
that this awful contest has given it rmness and fix
edness, which nothing hereafter can shake
We have no room for details, but we may state that
Lamartine and his associates in the Ministry have
resigned, and new Ministry has been formed, with
Gen. Cavignac at its head. The election for Presi-
dent of France win soon take place. Lamartine is
spoken of among others for the Office.

NORTH CAROLINA REGIMENT.

1t appears, from the following extract from let
ter from an esteemed friend at Goldsborough, under
date of the 18th instant, that the destination OF the
North Carolina Regiment has been changed, and that
the men will be mustered out of service at Smith
vile, in this State: ~
81 have Just had the pleasure of few minutes
conversation with Col. Hamtramck, and learn from
him that six companies of the North Carolina Re
giment were left by him in New Orleans, under or
ders for Smithve, in this State and that four COM
panes were the Brazos, expecting to sail soon Tor
Old Point Comfort. Orders to change the destlna-
ton of this last detachment had been issued, but the
Colonel thought would not be received in time to
prevent their being sent to Old Point, in which case
they would be Immediately sent back to Smlthyllie
where the oohoh Regiment would be assembled and
mustered out of service. The Colonel could not
name the different, companies, but Capt Duggan's

thinks the first detachment will arrive at SmlthVllie
about the 25th instant. The troops were In good
health and spirits and the Colonel gives them very
