Judge sharkev of Mississippi.

Ii is stated that Judge Sharkey. of Mississippi, has
resigned his seat the bench of the Supreme Court
of that State. 1t will be remembered that this gentle
man was President of the first Nashville Convention,
but refused call that body again together, to at
tend its second meeting He has always been bitter
and decided whg. but acts with the " Union par
ty" in support of Fooe. 1t has been limited that an
understanding exists between them that in considera-
ton of such support, Foote'S friends 10 vote for
Sharkey for the United States Senate, and that this
signation of his Judgeship is with view 10 running
for that office. If such be The fact Fooe ought to be
secuted by every democrat and dspsed by every whg
and so ough Sbarkey. Time will show and show too
much fear Certainly the heart of man is deceit
full above all things, and desperately wicked. We can
stand almost anything ii be open and above board
but these private compromises and bargains we have
no use for, no more than have for the parties to
them.

NIr. Gorsuch,s Letter.

The Fayetteville Observer of the 9th, makes
flourish of trumpets about Rev. Mr. Gorsuch having
implicitly retracted the charges he made against
Johnston, of Pennsylvania. It is too late in the
day to hold any further controversy about matters
in that State. The die is now cast, and the
returns of the I'd Tuesday in October show how
far Johnston is endorsed by the people of the Key
Stone State. 1t is now perfectly evidently that
Bgers majority will be large, not under ten thou
sand-perhaps as much as twenty thousand. Such
know to be the opinion of the ablest and best in
formed politicians in that State. Our object, there
fore, in publishing the letter from Mr.. Gorsuch,
which will be found in columns to-day is simply
to show the fimsy pretentions the prevarca,ions
and the insincerity of the of which the Obser-
has constituted itself the apoogst and defender
The article in that paper of the 9th, is completely
answered by Mr.. G.'s letter. that not another word
is Necessary save to remark, that Mr.. Gorsuch is
respectable minister, and well known to be whig.
Kid Gloves and ConsuIates.
We fear here is little too much truth in the i'm
putaion against the wing party of being influenced
in the distribution of its patronage by arstocratc
considerations and silk stocking morality. Not that
silk stockings and kid gloves are not good enough
ever, neither are they any great recommendation
being simply matters of taste accident, and should
not form the only qualifications for Office, as they
sometimes do: under the present wing administra
ton of our very republican government. Apropo
to this,we publish communication in reference to Col
Walton of New Orleans the probable appointee t.
the Havana Consulate, who it would appear is ont
of these carpet knights and nothing else 1t will b.
seen that the writer presents the of Col. H
Waddl of this State, to which we have no obec
ton, since wing must be appointed although WI
fear that the Colonel, worthy though he may be
stands not the tenth part of chance. The rein
statement of Gen. Campbell would give more gene
raj satisfaction to the country than any other NOV
the administration could make. 1t would place
man in the position of our commercial represen
tatives in Cuba. Since his removal there has bee
no man in the Office, which is now one of the mos
important and responsible in the gift of the govern
ment.

Our Natural AlIies.''

Under this heading the Fayetteville Observer of
the 18th commends to the earnest attention of the
Wilmington Journal and other papersi in like
offending an extract from the N. York Express pur-
porting to give report of the proceedings of demo-
cratic county convention, held at Tammany Hall, N
V some time last week We think that we ght fair
y object to the adnssibility of the testimony since
the Express which the Observer offers as authority
is well known to be bitter in its opposition to- and
systematic in its misrepresentation of the demo-
cratic party the Fayetteville Observer ITSELF and its
statements must therefore be received with many
grains of allowance, for the effects of passion and
prejudice, if they can be received at all.
The matter stated seems to be- that at the meet
ing convention in question, Mr.. Wheeler of the
18th Ward, proposed series of resolutions and a.
mong them several denouncing in round terms, the
action and the nominees of the democratic State
convention at Syracuse. Very properly, think,
the whole string was laid on the table. That por-
tons of them perfectly right, We do not doubt;
but they were unnecessary and the convention ight
fairly lay them the table upon this account alone
without mourning the imputaton ofhostility to their
principles. Besides this these unobectionable por-
tions WERE we have already observed, combined
with Others which read more like studied invec-
tive against democracy, gotten up by unscrupu-
lous political opponent, than the production of
a democrat, looking to the success of the party,
or the perpetuation of its principles. The i'm
preston which the report conveys to our mind
is that this man Wheeler was either factious
ntermeddler, was employed by the clique who
furnish the report (the Express clique) to cast a
frebrand into the Convention by insisting upon the
introduction of irrelevant matter. Let be distinct
ly understood in this matter. We not the apollo
gists of the Democrats in New York. They are not

much in contact with Seward whiggism that like
others who may have been forced to handle pitch,
they have been somewhat defled. But while we
cannot wholly endorse Them justice requires that
should expose such ungenerous attacks as the one
! to which we have alluded. But we must cut short
remembering that as this is purely in reply to the
Observer it only be of interest to those among
our readers who may have seen that paper

resolutions authorizing such subscription runs as fol-
lows:
And ror,ded further, That the said stock shall not be
sold below par either directly or indirectly.

paying quite too much for the whistle and it will
be found. There is such thing as shaving SO close

not much mistaken, this is an instance of it.

There was frost in Louisiana on the Goth Septem-
ber in the vicinity of Concorda. The Intelligencer
says it was quite severe. The Clinton OLa.) Wing
of the LIST inst, says:
Saturday, Sunday and Monday nights cold
and unreasonable. On Monday morning, we are in
formed the thermometer stood at A degrees, and
frost was dscernable on the bottom lands The wea-
Their still continues dry, all vegetation is checked
and it seems to be the general anticipation that the
first rain will bring in its train heavy frost-per-
haps freeze.
The Galveston News of the Sd inst, has the fol-
lowing in relation to the crops:
Our cotton crop appears likely to turn out much
better than anticipated few weeks ago. There
was then prospect that the dry summer which had
been so injurious would be followed by wet fall
But the weather after fine rains, has since
continued dry; and thus far was ever more
favorable for picking, for the maturing of the
bolls On most of the plantations on the Brazos and
Caney, from which have heard the cotton crop
reported to be much better than it last year
and some making quite average crop. If the
present fine weather continues little longer, we
shall confidently expect the total crop of the State
to be much larger than it was last year.
| The weather. remarks the Greensboro Beacon of
the 4th inst, continues favorable for cotton picking
and the crop in this section is, satisfied turn
ing out considerably better than generally anti
cipated month ago. Whilst the yield on the thin
sandy lands will fall something below that of last
year, the black lands generally will give consider
able better yield We had very light frosts on the
nights of the 9th and 28th but they did 20 damag
