Wilmington journal. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1844-1895, 1853-10-21

ING from VISITING CARD, up to the LARGEST
SIZED POSTERS.
Now, give showing and we will show the public what
can be done away down here in Wilmington in the Old
North State.
bag~The good. kind-hearted souls who have been
telling the people all along how much ground the
Administration has lost, and to what an amazing
extent the Democracy has been split up by the in
trgues of the great disappointed, not a little
puzzled, disgruned and put out by the result of all
the recent elections which has been as one-sded as
the handle of jug. The party which supports the.
President has been successful this Fall
than he himself was last So, upon the whole, all
the discussion about divisions and all that amounts
to nothing; and we are sick of fatiguing read
ders with it any longer. The meeting of Congress
the doctrines and recommendations Of the mes
sage and accompanying documents-their reception
by the people, and the subsequent action of Congress
upon them these, and these alone, can fairly test
the strength and popularity of the Adminstra-
ton and we may depend upon it, that the long
Congress of '53-4 will be among the most stirring
and important in the annals of the National Legis-
lature. Among other things, we will have the Pa
cfc Railroad-the Tariff redEction-the surplus
revenue, and host of equally important questions
The people of Europe fad a great difficulty
in bringing themselves understand our peculiarly
federatve form of government and all interests
and influences and local questions They have no
standard by which to judge We must confess
it strikes us, that. regards European affairs our
people labor under nearly the same difficulties that
Europeans do with regard to ours and that we are
just apt to get the wrong the right end of any
story coming from there That old continent has
artificial enlargements traditional jealouses, con-
fictng nationalites, and all sorts of humbugs-per-
haps natural to old state of societythat we can
hardly begin to appreciate or do justice to- There
fore it is, that many of the shrewdest Yankee
gucSSerS make such egregious bunders in attempting
to pr0gnOsticate the course of events in Europe
whether for peace or war-whether for monarchy
repubcanism. Therefore it is, that the advices
by the steamers in regard to the difficulties between
Turkey and Russia worth simply the facts they
communicate. The specuatons of the press rather
throw darkness than light upon the subject. If ask
ed our opinion whether there will be fight or not,
could only reply, in the language of the Irish
man, with the cudgel in his band Phase God -
and he glanced afectionately towards the "sprig''
in his dexter hand.
These subjects which we have just been showing
the uselessness of writing any about for the
present. have been, and are the staple of newspaper
discussion. Another, and perhaps serious
topic is the pressure upon the money market at the
North, resulting in few failures, which panic
mongers exaggerate into the beginning of crash
like that of 1887, but without any warrant; and in
deed, now, the downward tendency has been
arrested and the storm, or more properly the pan
ic has begun to srbside.

chariot of Professor Carl in the shape of the Hotel
Omnibus. Magni6cently grand, and georgeously
prismatio was the paint on Bill WorreIs nose and
exc his hind legs. Awfully "grand, gloomy and
peculiar was the cavalier with the black mantle
and long hair. Strong, sturdy and stumbubuious
was tho equestrian without mantle at all Quad
rupedal were the horses, vocferous were the boys,
and multitudinous the niggers that went past our
office yesterday afternoon, the whole procession in
tended to keep it before the people, that Prof Carl
was to hold forth at the Theatre at night The pro-
cessiOn very quiet, nice procession. 1t was
moreover, very good advertisement, and we no
earthly reason why Professor Carl should not have
his procession.
We like professions, and can't help commemorating
them They the poetry of street life, whereof
draws and goods-boxes are the prose. 1t is upon pro-
cessons alone that feel authorized TO give scope
10 the imagination and develop the romantic tenden-
cies of our nature. Yes STREE. Oh poetry! Oh
