the morning of the 8th inst. of typhoid
fever, Mr.. Henry johnson, in the 32nd
year of his age, leaving an afectionate
wife and three children to mourn their
loss. The deceased looked forward with
hope to long life Of usefulness in his
neighborhood, where he was highly res
pected and esteemed; but death, the
great leveller of mankind, has sum-
moned him hence to be known on earth
no more for ever. May he who prom~

The Turks, on the 18th, the day the
Anglo French succors were promised,
sailed out of Silistria, and attacked the
Russians in their trenches. A severe
battle took place ending in the total dis
comfture of the Russians, who were
pursued by the Turks and fed across
the Danube, and they succeeded in de-
stroying all the Russian siege works.
It is considered that this victory will
change the face of the campaign.
General Ludders was amongst the
wounded at Silistria. The life of Gen
eral Shilder was also in danger.
It's said that much disuuion exists
among the Russian Generals at head

all cases, but none have come to our know

the same time, thousands of instances have
occurred where It's effects have been so mar

commended. The DIARRHQ1A CORDIAL,

The Gubernaterial candidates are

day of election approaches, the canvass
wakes warmer and warmer, and the
partizans of both candidates appear to
be sanguine of success. The Charlotte
Democrat says:
We 'had the pleasure Of seeing Mr..
Bragg on Sunday evening, and were
glad to learn that his health was much
s1nproved, and that he would be able to
prosecute the canvass regularly until
the campaign is ended. He addressed
a geodly number of our citizens in this
place On Monday, who were delighted
with him; though their expectations
were highly raissa, he aore than reali-
zed them. We understand that never
did man get such skianing as did

of it easily accessible to the means of
high improvement. The Island tract
is we'll adapted to the culture of cotton.
and on it is valua bic lot of Cypress

For THE SOUTHERNER.

According to previous notice a large
and very respectable meeting of the cit
izeus Of Edgecombe county was held in
the Court House in Marlborough on
Tuesday, the 18th of July, 1854.
On motion, William Ii. Johnston
Esq, was appointed Chairman, and
Hugh B. Bryan, Esq. Secretary of the
meeting.
The Chairman briefly explained the
object Of the meeting to be the concert
ing Of such measures as mi gh t be deem
ed by the meeting most conducive to
the ultimate suppression of the practice
treating by candidates for public Of
fee in the county of Edgecombe.
After various preliminary remarks by
differe Mt gentlemen concerning the OBJ
jeot ct the meeting, it was
Resoloed, That Committee of FIVE
be appointed by the Chairman to draft
resolutions for the consideration of the
meeting.
Whereupon the Chairman appointed
Messrs. Jesse G. Knight, William
Thigpen, Kenneth Thigpen, Robert FL
Pender and Robert Noraeet said Com
mittee.
The Committee then retired and af
ter so1ne time spent in deliberation, re
turned and reported to the meeting the
following preamble and resolutions
which were unanimously adopted
WHEREAS, according to notice we
portion of the citizens of Edgccomb'
met in the Court House in the town o
Tarborough on Tuesday, the 18th o
July, 1854, to take into consideration
the practice of treating by the candi
dates for the Offices in the gift ofthe peo
pie; and whereas we look on said prac
tice as tending towards corrupting th,
ballot box, uncalled for, extravagan
and expensive and if continued to in
crease Will in few years debar men c
limited means, of equal talents, tru
worth and merit from ever participat
ing in the couusels Of the State
And whereas much confusion exists i
the minds ofa portion of our fellow Gil
izens relative to the temperance ques
ton
Therefore ResolUed, That we hereb
disclai,n all connection with said order
SO far as compulsory laws are concerned
Resolved, That we 60 for principle
not men; that we will support the gre;
democratic doctrine in preference to al
stract questions of moral reform, rattle
than play into the hands Of the encm
as almost all questions of doubtful St
bility have done.
ResolUed, That we do not deem
proper to impose any restrictions vii

have already announced themselves
candidates for the Senate and Sheriff;
