estimate the damage 20 per cent. in quantity, and

dying, want of plants to replant with, and exceed

two-thirds average one.

Of the favorable reports from the country relative

will be larger than any crop since l545, and two
thirds heavier than that of last year. Corn is still
backward, but the weather is most favorable for its
growth, and there would seem at present to be no
to fear short crop. The reports relative TO the

STEAM SAW MILL. We availed ourselves of the
public invitation of Mr.. Snow, the gentemanly and
enerprsing Proprietor to pay visit to his Steam
Saw Mill, about miles from this City, few eve
nings since. Wewere agreeably impressed with the
novelty Of its appearance, and very orciby struck
with lis superior adaptation to the proposes for which
it is used, the water power method. The great
er apidity of saving is, of course, within ITSELF
very important and essential feature but perhaps the
most material advantage lies in the exactness and ia
cility Of graduation attained BY means of the ma
chinery. While we present, huge log, 81
feet in length, was sawed through in about minute
and we were informed that in good days work, in
dependent Of necessary delays, &C., or 5000 feet
of Timber, can be sawed. The advantage Of the
Steam over the Water-power-the latter subject at
all times to irreguariy and uncertainty-wilI thus
be readily and appreciated, in this one instance
alone.
Mr.. Snow is one Of your go-head citizens, that
knows obstacle in the path of enterprise; and as
such. is destined succeed in what he undertakes.
We call attention his Advertisement, in this Pa
per, and bear personal witness to his ability and
facilities in his line Of business.

ly dissolved.
We call attention to the admirable Address to the
people of North Carolina by COL Reid, on the first
to rest many of the charges brought against him by
Mr. Manly and his supporters, and defines his posi-
ton accurately and boldly, without shutting or con-
cealment. 1t is able and digni6ed, and contrasts
strongly with the milk and water affair perpetrated
by Gov. Manly before the Wing State Convention.
Mr. Reids Address should be carefully read by every
voter in the State. He is in favor of Equal Suffrage
but opposed to any alteration in the basis of
tation either in the Senate or the Commons. Such
we believe be the position of both parties in the
East, and, on principle, he is entitled to its united
support. Ne,ooern Republieam.
