it strange that last year should have published
and commended FISHERS essay on g The North and
the South" We see nothing strange in it. 1t was
tho essay we commended, not FISHER; of him we
knew little or nothing, and cared nothing for him
We commend that essay as highly now as We did

THE DEEP YADK1N RIvERs.-An intelligent
writer (from PittsboroO in the ASHORE Herald,
mentions the anxious desire of the Cape Fear and
Deep River Navigation Company to effect
ion between the Deep and Yadkn Rivers by means
OF portage railroad or canal He says it is exPeo-
the Deep River to point Franklinsville in
Randolph county. His propositions contemplate not
only connexion with the Yadkin above the Mar
rows but the improvement of the latter river up to
Wilksboro' and an examination of the South Yadkin
with reference to its susceptibility of improvement
and connexon with the Catawba river, &C. He says
the work on the Cape Fear is progressing beyond
the expectations of its most sanguine friends. and
that if the summer be favorable the river will be

The matter created good deal of excitement. There
is no news from Ireland.
In France considerable excitement is said to pre-
vail in regard to new electoral law, now pending
before the National Assembly. 1t is contended, by
those opposed to the law that any attempt to limit
the elective franchise except by constituent assem-
bly,, properly convened, is illegal, and violation of
the constitution. An outbreak has been threatened
in consequence, but the governmental preparations
to put it down too efficient to give any chance
of success. There is every prospect of short crop

From Germany there is nothing new. German
politics consist of the rival efforts of Prussia and Aus

in America, still fully holds its own in the Vari-

We are not in the prcdcament of some OF

have heard the voice of the city Press-Pralse'
