INTERESTING AsEcDorr: Two young Americans,
after completing their education in Europe, were
travelling with the view Of perfec,ing themselves in
their classic studies. Thus engaged, they were
journing for short time in Vienna. One day, while
crossing one of the streets. an Austrian officer Of
high military rank came dashing along at furious
rate on horseback. One of these Americans, appre-
hending that the horse would run against him, raised
small cane, with the view Of turning the horses
head Il; whereupon the officer struck him with his
whip. Upon ascertainlng the address Of the officer
he demanded satisfaction of him which demand the
officer treated with contempt, ridculing the idea Of
his responding to an unknown American boy. In
this strait the two young gentlemen laid their griev
ance before the American representative at that court
Our charge Immediately addressed the officer, and,
after reeaptulating the facts informed him that he
must either apologize give the satisfaction requr-
ed and that, in the event Of his failing to do so, he
would, over his own signature the representative
Of the American government, publish him ineyery
leading paper on the continent poltroon., 1t is
needless to add that this demand was immediately
followed by ample apology Of the Austrian officer.
But s proper to add that this government then
honored in the person Of Mr.. Stiles. -as=v

A DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION. The Fayetteville
Cdrohnian makes suggestion to which we cordially
respond, to hold a Democratic State Convention to
nominate Candidate for Governor, and recommends
Raleigh as the proper place of holding it. As to the
place. we agree entirely; with regard to the time,
we think Brother Holden's suggestion the best, un-
der all circumstances-let Wednesday tho FIRST day
of May, be the time. As we do not believe, in tho
practice of sending the Candidate all over the State
to drum up votes like Yankee pedlar to look 10
custom, the period between the first day of May and
the day Of election, will be amply sufficient for eff.
organization Of the party in each county, and
the respective candidates of the two parties viii be
| regarded az the exponents. We would recommend
| to the Democrats Of the Eastern counties 10 hold
meetings and appoint delegates to attend the propos
ed Convention. Every county sshorid be Represent
ed, and early action will contribute materially to,
wards securing such result. Nescbern Repu6.

ORIGIN OF NEWSPAPERS. Among the millions who
are in the habit OF consulting the columns of news
are acquainted with its origin. According to Dis
rae, we are indebted to the Italians for the idea al.
though, in ancient Rome, reports of important events
and the doings cf the Senate, were frequently pub
lished under the title of acta Diurna. The period
ical press properly commenced at Vienna and Aups-
burg Germany, in 1924 these bulletins, were how
ever, not printed: Thirty volumes of these manu.
script newspapers exist in the Magliabechan library
at Florence. About the year 1868, at the suggestion
of the father of the celebrated Montaigne, Offices
were first established, in France, for the purpose Of
making the wants of individuals known to each 9TH
or. The advertisements received were pasted on the
wall to attract attention; in the of the Ro-
Inans this ultimately led to systematic and PERIOD
ical publication of advertisements in sheets. The
epoch of the Spanish Armada, is also the epoch of
the first orthodox newspaper. In the British Muse:
um are several newspapers printed while the Span:

1888. 1t was strictly the organ of the government,

to in the British Museum is marked No. so, and is
in Roman, not black letter; and, its contents il
might almost be supposed the model of the I" Lon

of James ], newspapers in the quarto form were oc-
when the exploits of Gustavus Adolphus attracted
the eyes Of the civilized world, we find regular
weekly paper edited by Nathaniel Butler. and pub
lshed under the title of "The Certain News of this
Present Week" which may be regarded as the first
regular weekly newspaper. "
During the civil war in England in l643, there
were, however, score of these s. Diurnals y and
Mercuries in circulation. The titles were quaint
and curious, such as the following ''Truths from
York. ." Warranted Tidings from lreland,'' Spe-
cial passages from various places,' and numerous
others Of more ludicrous character. So important
an auxiliary was the press considered, indeed, that
each Of the rival armies carried printer along with
it. In the reign of Queen Anne, l7O2, there was
but ono ds.y paper published in LSndo I'll. other.
essential element of the press, and Addison sought
devote it TO purely literary purposes; the result
has been the establishment of distinct vehicles for
both. The first journal having the character of a
magazine, or review, was the Journal des Savants,
established in Paris in 1868; in England the first
monthly of this SOFT appeared in l749. From these

Hon. THOMAS L. CLlNeMAN. This comparatively
young Representative deserves warm commendation
for the talented and bravehearted speech which he
has recently delivered. So strong is the yoke of par
ty, that he who breaks it is no ordinary man: he
must possess vigor, self-relance, and high neral
courage. The course of Mr.. Clingman contrasts
most avorably with that of some older politicians,
hackned in the paths of partisanshp, that they
dare not call their souls their ownhe slaves of fac
tion they startle at their own shadows, and shudder
at every new proposition, however sound and simple.
These old Hunkers become tide-waiters on public
opinion, and when bolder men and stronger action
have semmed the tide of adverse opinion, they fling
themselves upon the current, and float like corks.
Like drowned bodies they rise as they rot. We do
seem to be necessary evils. But there higher OBJ
legations than any that party should exact: obl
cations country, to sections families.
We hail MIR. Clingman for his manly and irrefuta-
bic speech. Wilmington Ruroro.

GEN. HoUsToN. In a sketch of Gen. Houston's
late speech in the Senate Potomac of the Balt
more Patriot, says:
''He laughed at the young men, he termed
Messrs. Foote, Davis and Clemens, for undertaking
to teach him what was his duty to the South! Why
he had fought for the South before they born.
He had taken his life in one hand and his sword in
the other, and fought for the South when fighting
was of some account"
We do not desire to underrate the various
dinary achievements; both in military and civil life,
of Gen. Sam. Houston. Nor are we the apologlsts
of any gentleman who presumes to lecture General
Sam. Houston upon any subject! But, brave a man
as he is, if he thinks he has performed,
or read, or heard of I" ightng' which was of more
s' account" than Jeff. Davis has performed, he is
about the only man in America who has been so for
tunate. There has been feat of consummate skill
and desperate valor in the whole history of this con-
tinent, which surpasses the conduct OF Davis and
his Mississippians at the battle of Buena Vista.
Human science could have suggested no wiser move
ments; human courage cannot rise to higher pitch
of devoted heroism. Whatever may be the political
errors of Davis, he commits errors upon the bat
te-feld. 1t is true Sam. Houston was at the onset
of San Jacinto but possibly, if he had been at Bu-
ena VISTA he might have acknowledged that all the
" fighting of any account" had not been used up in
the wars of Texas.
We make these remarks simply in justice to a
brave soldier, who, though he be political adversa-
ry, is true to the South. The crime Of being a
$ young mai" is however, an objectionable one in
Sam. Houston's eyes, But if youth sometimes errs
from ardor, does not age sometimes disgust by its
cunning and ambition! In fact we can imagine no
more odious spectacle than old, gray headed men,
hobbling along in pursuit of pomps and vanties with
the eagernass Of children in chase Of butterflies.
