; Some years ago there "cirsulated" in
this region of the country man named
O'Rouke, tall, powerful built, muscular
specimen of genus homo, who boasted

tina, could be ',rotted out His principal
business consisted in travelling the wes-
tern waters as deck passenger, and
fleeing the unsuspecting gentlemen from
the rural districts, out OF their 'phunds' al
cards. He had "a peculiarly scientific
way of manipulating the papers, which
together with his gigantic proportions and
overbearing manner, generally brought
him out first best in his card specula,ions.
His tifme, both as bully and swind-
ling gambler, extended from the Mononl
gahela and Allegheny rivers to the Ba-
lize, and his name was a dread to all
steamboat captains.
Zone day, some years ago, he shipped
from this port on New Orleans steam

a short distance down the river before
O'Rouke succeeded in initiating himself
among small party Of Suckers, and
getting up game OF poker. AS usual
the game ended by his winning all the
money and thrashing several OF his OPP
ponents, who objected to his manner OF
handling and distributing the documents
An effort was made TO get O'Rouke to
disgorgc his gains, but his blood billed
up and he swore he would lick the en-.
tire steamboat unless they devoted then
entire attention TO their own private al.

all his might and majesty.
The mate cautiously scanned the state
of affairs, and resolved upon a Group d
stat. He selected and cut from the wood
pile five hickory clubs, and then picked
out of the crew five OF the best men, &c
each of whom he gave club, and nlsc
instructions how to proceed in the game
AS O'Rouke was coming down the
cabin stairway, swearing, toaming, sweat

HE CLOSING SCENES IN HOUSE OF Com
MONS We call the attention of the public to the ar
tlcle in this paper copied from the Raleigh Standard
IN relation to most scandalous scene which took
place in the House of Commons on the 22d ult. the
day fixed on by joint resolution for the adjournment
of the General Assembly. That scene was bem-
ish upon the fair fame of North Carolina State

servatve characte-and disgracefu the guilty ac-
tors 1t exhibited an amount of political arocity in
large portion of the whig representation in the
House of Commons which we could not have beiev-
ed possible had not most incontestible proof of it,
Had 1t not been for the firm conduct of Samuel F.
Philips Esq, of the whig members of the House
from Orange county, and few other wings who re-
fused to bow to the dictates of their party when the
honor and welfare of the State was in ieopardv. we
might now be plunged into the vortex of civil revo-
luton. large portion of the whig representation
In the House of Commons, led on by Mr. Cherry,
avowed their determination to defeat the bill for d.
vIdIng the State into Senatorial Districts which had
been reported by joint select Committee composed of
one aOhlg and one democrat, if an adjournment
without any provision whatever on the subject were
necessary to accomplish the object. Such adjourn
ment would have left without any adequate author
ly In the State for the perpeuation Of the State Sem
ate' and the government would therefore have been
dissolved This we suppose is conservative whig-
gerry! If 1t is not rank moral treason we know NOT

GRAVE OF BEN BOLT.

DYER.
By the SIDE of Sweet Alice they have laid Ben Bolt.
Where often he longed to repose
For there he would knee with the eary sprino fIoxers
And plant DER his darling the rose.
His heart was as true the star to his gaze
When tossed on the pillows alone
But now it is cold and forever at rest
For he calmly lies under the stone
How often his eyes were brimmng with tears
To mingle with others in grief:
But joy would re-kindIe the light of his smile
When pouring the balm of relief
At last ne has gone to the bright-spirit land,
And, free from all sorrow and pain,
He tastes the full raptures of angels above
For he meets with sweet Alice again
Wen gather the flowers from the green shady nook
And moss from the silent old mill,
To strew ocr the graves where obscurelv renoso-
The hearts that death only could chill;
"A nd OF, when the soul has grown weary and sad,
Wen come by the twilight alone

And Sweet Alice lie under the stone - = rs y :

WILLIAM EATON In F.

| The defeat of this excellent man and able o,o,
for Attorney General, at the late session Of tP
Assembly, has excited much regret. This d.f.,
was the result of the disorganizcd condition Of Il,
Democratic party as represented in the Assembly
and it is due to Mr.. Eaton, who acquitted b;pses
so acceptably in the Office, that the facts should a
known.
On the first vote Mr.. Ransom received so rote.
MIR. Eaton 70, and Mr.. Rogers 9. Mr. Eators
namo was then Withdrawn from the nominaticn
he being unwilling to continue a contest for II,
Office, and his friends being fearful that, from tb
cause above referred to, Mfr. Ransom would, on fl,
next vote, be elected over him. He received all the
Democratic votes-saye those of the absentecs, O,
those who had paired off with Whigs-with the
exception OF Messrs. Love, Gotten, and Christina,
who 1t is notorious, did not co operate with the
party in the elections; and he received, in addition
The vote of Mr.. Smith, Wing, of Halifax.
1t is, therefore, not true that Mr.. Eaton wa,
'lther deserted by his party or defeated by con-
siderable majority. His party desired to re-eIec
llm; but being unable, under the circumstances
eferred to, to do So he withdrew his name from
he contest and Mr. Ransom was elected.
