OCEAN STEAMSHIPS AT BALTIMORE. We are hap
py perceive that sister city of Baltimore. whose
fame for building clipper schooners has spread all
more northern cities, by the establishment of
steamship line. We have long been convinced that
Baltimore, to hold her relative commercial rank and
keep with the growth of other cities, would
have follow this and, in her doing so, we
also satisfied that neighborng places, including
city, will be very materially benefited.
The American of yesterday says:
We are gratifed to state that Baltimore is soon
to have frst-cass steam-propeller ship in her mer-
camille marine. Two enterprising merchants of this
city have concluded all preliminary arrangements for
building ship of this description in which will be
combined all the Improvements. She is inten-
ded as regular trader between Baltimore and Liver
POLL and we confident will not be long in service
before she is followed by others of the descrp
ton. Our ship-builders, who not behind any in
their line, will take due that the pioneer prope
Ter ship shall speak for herself, both at home and
abroad''

Mr.. AvERY's ADDRESS. We have received through
the Politeness of the publisher, Mr.. w. W. Holden,
of Raleigh, copy Of the Address delivered before
the two Literary Societies of the N. G. University.
on the 4th of June last. by w. w. Avery, Esq. Of
Morganton The subject of this address is State
Pride and the orator eloquently inculcates this SEN
tment. We find in it none of that straining after
classical illusions which is common characteris-
tic OF our University commencement addresses. Mr..
Averys line scholastic attainments forbid the idea
that this IS any thing else than the result of his good
taste and tree election. We would not be understood
that classical illusions be ostracised from the
literature of our institutions of learning. We think
that when they illustrate the subject under consdera-
ton, they are highly appropriate. But deprecate
the custom OF hunting up analogies between the u-
itarian ideas of the nineteenth century and the almost
forgotten fables of the heather mythology. When
1t IS evident that illusion is intended illus
trate subject, but to show that the orator familiar
with the source from which it is drawn, we think
that good taste should forbid it's introduction.
On the whole, we think this address highly ere.
dta6e productions and calculated to add to the repu
tatIon OF the author. Fayetteville CtaroIinian.

The Editor of the Register is subject to periodical
spasms occasioned by the non-appearance of certain
speeches delivered by Messrs. Saunders, Dobbin,
Avery, CALDWELL and Person, in the last Legislature.
1t is indeed subject of regret for the Registers sake
that these gentlemen have no. taken pity upon the
Editor and relieved him from these periodical vista
tons. But the above gentlemen are Democrats, and
the speeches delivered by them, made to infu-
ence the Legislature, and immediate result
had they been Wings, they would have written them
out for Buncombe, and scattered them broadcast
throughout the State. But we would remind the
Editor of the Register that sometime last Spring,
the Standard took him through a of stripes
upon Federalism, and its history generally, to which
he promised reply. That reply has never yet APP
peared. Perhaps during the leisure time before the
meeting of Congress, the Register had better under
take this job, and after he has finished it, some of
the gentlemen above mentioned may accommodate
him with copy of their speeches.
