EI-At the meeting of the Stockholders of
the Raleigh and CASTOR Rail road, held in this
City last week, q resolution was passed, 'di-
recting the President and Directors of the
Raleigh and Castor Company to notify the
Post Office Department that they could no
longer carry the mail under the present scheC-
ult, and that il the Department would not so
arrange it rs to allow the Express train to ran
through on their road in tho day time, thts Ia
thcr than submit to such injustice and partiality
thoy would abandon the mil. As things
now stand there is no connection whatever al
Weldon, where the four roads meet, and Pc
teraburg through the Grcensvillc ro,d, also has
direct connection with Raleigh, whose cit
zyns from that point TO CASTOR, have to trave
altogether at night. The change can be made
without Inconvenience to any connection. anc

Bishon Ives.

A cotemporary puts the case of the Bishop
IN q new, and rather more terrible light
The Bishop is selfjudged and condemned
out of his own mouth. The Watchman and
Observer says, that, in addressing his Con-
vention in 1851, the Bishop said:
81 beg to declare my consci-
entious conviction. that our branch of the
Church, styled The Protestant Episcopal
Church in the United States,' and standing
upon tho same firm basis with the mother
Church in England. belongs to that portion
of Christ's body, which is the most Scriptu-
raj, primitive, and truly Catholic in its char
acter, and that no one embraced by holy bap-
tism within its pale, can depart from it, with
out the grieyous sin of doing despite to the
Holy Ghost.
But Bishop Ives before the close Of 1852,
renounced the Protestant Episcopal, for the
Papal Church-lnd he being judge, has done
despite to the Holy Ghost"

THE PITT OGTRAGE.-Wc copy on the first
page Of this paper (from the Spirit of the
Age.) an account Of an outrage perpetrated
in Pitt county, which we regard as no less Il
disgrace to the county than to the whole
State. The actors, one and all, in this deed
of villainy and black disgrace, should be Sc
vcrcly punished. In the absence Of pcni-
tcntiary they ought to be made to dwell few
years within the walls Of some filthy Jail, and
fined severely. As for the man Bynum, who
seems to have been the ring leader he ought
to be kicked out Of the pulpit into an empty
whiskey barrel, and it east into dungeon as
dark, if possible, as his benightcd mind. The
smell Of whiskey and the impossibility to
taste the critter, would doubtless punish the
fellow sufficiently. We take it that u whis-
key barrel is the god this Rcrercnd gentle
man worships. If he knows of any other, it
is doub ful whether any other knows him.
But this is not the only disgraceful riot that
has occurred III this State since our Legisla-
ture treated Il respectful Temperance memo
rial with derison and contempt. Two 9TH
ors Of similar character have been enacted
and all, we believe, headed by men calling
themselves Prcachcrs !-Nilton Chronicle.

 OF THE
 A M E RICAN " HIG REVIEW

FgVHE AMERICAN WHIG REVIEW is "A published Monthly, at No. 12O Mas sau street, New York. Each number contains ninety-six pages of reading matter, and includes a portrait of some distinguished man, usually selected from Living American Statesmen.
 The Review will set forth and defend the principles of the UNITED WHiG PARTY of the Union. It will attack those principles of the opposite party which are prejudicia to the interests of the Nation. It will deal with individ- uas as little as possible, always regard ing them as secondary to the principles they represent. Its past course is a sufficient guaranty against its becoming the organ of any faction; at the same time, its pages, as heretofore, will always be open to the expression of Whig senti- ments from every quarter of the Union.
 The Review will maintain the front rank in the various departments of cur rent Literature, and will not disappoint those readers who have heretofore been accustomed to look to foreign sources for information or amusement.
 The Publisher acknowledges with high qualification and hearty thanks the warm and spontaneous interest which the friends of the REVIEW have manifes- ted for its success since the reduction of its terms. He takes pleasure in saying that the list of the REVIEW has been aug mented by one half since July, encOur- aged by the formation of voluntary clubs, he now offers the final

The paper was directed to one of the associates of his boyish days, and designed for publication:
 "To THE YOUTH OF THE DISTRICT. As I have but a few days to live, l feel it my duty to caution you from following my course of life, if you would live long and be respected by all who lnow you. No matter how humble your situation in life, keep the Sabbath holy; refrain profane company, and, above all things, refrain from that great destroyer, ardent spirits. Look at my condition. Instead of being one of our best citizens, beloved and esteemed by all, you find me in my lonely cell, under sentence of death, charged with one of the most awful crimes that could be perpetrated on earth; from once a plouS youth, the cause referred to above.
