bearing the Statue Of John c. Calhoun, just com.
peted and shipped by the artist. There were
five passengers. all lost Horace Summer OF

The wreck took place off Fire Island, about

also a lot of valuable paintings on board.
1t is supposed that the statue will be saved
This is the second statue Mr. Powers has had
wrecked. His statue Of Eve was the first. Pro.
badly it may yet be recovered from the ocean.

THE BASIS" CHARGE.-The election i.
now over, and nothing We can say can alter it !;
but 1t right that this charge should be cleared
up, one way or another. aud we will publish
every thing tending to that end. Therefore We
publish an extract from the Mountain Banner.
showing that Gov. Manly did not deny the charge
of Mr. Reid:
THE DISCUSSION AT MARION.
We visited Marion, the county seat of
Mcdowell, last Friday to hear the discus
sion between our candidates for the Office
Of Governor and although we cannot 60
into any lengthy account Of it, we will
endeayor to notice some very material
points, and to give our impressions fairly
and honestly.
1t being Mr. Reid's turn to lead of. he
did so in plain, unostentatious manner,
frankly avowins his views aud opinions
without any attempt at conceal ment, or
any desire to avoid responsibility. He
alluded to the charges his competitor was
accustomed to bring against him. and met
and explained them all to the entire salts
faction OF every unprejudiced mind--The
charge OF his having voted to sell poor white
men for debt he showed to be only a vote
against the repeal as the vagrant Law. and
that James L. Morehead, the president
Of the very convention tina, nominated Gov
Manly, had also given the same vote. He
showed that his vote OH the Oregon bill
was only to exclude slavery North Of the
Missouri compromise line, and that the
Wilmot proviso proposed to exclude it
from all territory, both North and South,
and therefore he did not vote for the prin-
ciple of the Wilmot proviso. On the sub
ject of Free Suffrage he spoke with his
usual ability and effect, and clearly de.
monstrated that Gov. Manly was. two
years ago, opposed to the whole principle;
and only pretended to favor it now because
he saw inevitable defeat in his former
course. In conclusion he charged Gov
M,anty aciih having ADVOCATED change IN
the basis Of Representation, both at Went
worth and at Germanton. and then trying
to deny it at Salem. We had as well
state here that in the reply Of Gov. Manly
he did not deny This charge-he was silent
on the subject.

INTERVIEW BETWEEN PROFESSOR WEB
STER AND Mr. IITT1 rE1rrn

BosroN, July 25.-Professor Webster
| and Mr. L-ittletield had an interview yes
terday in the Jail, at the desire of the
former.
The professor said that he could not
rest until he bad acknowledged that he
had done LittIeield great injury, and
asked his forgiveness.
He said that Littleficld, in his testimony,
had told nothing but the truth, but that he
(W.) knew nothing about the sledge-
hammer.
The Boston Courier says that the de.
cision of the executive council has pro-
duced no change in Professor VS. ap-
pearance or behavior. His mood has for
some time past been that of a man in deep
thought. When alone. he has book in his
hand. but does not read much. The Jail
officers do not keep strict watch u pom
the prisoner. and they have no fear that
he will commit suicide. He is, according
to the Jail record. in the 55:i, year Of his
age. and is five feet two inches and one
eighth in height.

that they shipped for Chagres, and knew moth

The officers and crews Of the two vessels were

Poor fellow! how hard fate
The Havana correspondent says that the Amer

prisoners. or give them any countenance what
ever He says that the Americans in Havana
were dsgusted with this conduct Of the officers

The two vessels were confiscated.

EXTRAORDINARY Balloon ASCENSION.
A Paris letter Of 9th instant, published
in the New York Courier, says:
"Yesterday was witness, as was all
Paris. of balloon ascension, which was
perhaps unique in the history Of erosta-
ton. Margot ascended in $40, mounted
upon a stag. but both he and stag were
in an ordinary car. Yesterday, NJ. Poite
vim ascended on horseback. and without
car. The horse. & fine and spirited young
white animal, was suspended beneath the
balloon, in the place usually occupied by
the car Bands passed beneath the belly
we'll secured. left the animal in an easy
position. with the legs free. Mr. Poitevin,
clothed as jockey. mounted the horse,
which was saddled and brdIed in the
ordinary manner. and gave orders to cut
loose. The horse seemed 10th to quit his
mother earth. and demonstrated little
when he found that he vas beinging taken
off Of his feet. But once in air he became
as motionIess as though he had been struck
with paralysis. He must. in fact. have
been not little astohished. and It was
probably that astonishment which struck
him dumb and motionless. They moved
off and up rapidly, now hid. now seen
amid the clouds in northeast direction.
We have not yet had accounts of the ies.

happily and safely Affected"

LYNCHED.-!n Culpepper ceurty, Va, week
before last, says the Fredericksburg Recorder,
the citizens assembled at the Court House, and
forced the jailor to deliver up prisoner named
William Grayson, "a nulatto, who had been
twice convicted Of the murder Of David w. Mil
ler,) whom they Immediately hung.
The Recorder denounces this act much in the
same terms he would murder and robbery on
the highway. At the same time he says that the
persons who assembled and did this, were partly
composed Of Magistrates and members Of chur-
ches. Now, it is very evident to US that there
was g something rotten' about that Court that
granted trial three times, after two con.
victions and it becomes still more evident W hen
magistrates and church members take the re-
sponsibility OF reversing the grant of new trial.
We believe there sometimes cases which
justify such extreme measures.
