DA- An exchange paper, in speaking of
the short crops Of grapes, fruit, corn, rye,
potatoes, &C., and the high price the rev ma.
terial is likely to command, says:
"Tho Temperance cause may find an un-
expected ally IN the %unexampled drought
with which the country is inflicted. With
such prices rs food must bear, should the drv
weather prove rs destructive TO crona az Is
npprehened, people cannot afford to paw ex-
orbitant prices for drinks also"
The writer Of the above must be either
wilfully obtuse or wofulIy ignorant, if he
does not know that It is a matter ofthe small
est consideration with wine-makers and dis
t%llers, whether there is much or little of
fruits or grain raised, as they form the very
least part Of the substances out of which
wines and strong drink are manufactured.-
As n proof Of this, it is stated on reliable in
formation from our custom houses, that more
port wine is drank in the United States in
one year than passes through the custom
house in ten that more champagne is con-
sumed in America alone than tho whole
champagne district produces that cognac
brandy costs four times as much in France,
where it is made, than it is retailed for in
our grogshops and that the failure of the
whole grape crop in Madeira produced no
apparent diminution in quantity or increase
in the price Of wine.
The same remarks apply with equal truth
fulness concerning the liquors made in the
United States. It is a well established fact,
that the most deadly drugs are now used in
alarming quantities, to supply the place of
vegetable ingredients which cost higher than
the former, such as %logwood, vitriol, %coculus,
indicus, %strychnine, and various other of the
most destructive p%oisons, in order to give
strength and body to the vile compounds
they send forth under. the misnomers Of
wines, brandy, rum, whiskey, &c. And the
truth is, the question now before the people
Of this country is not so much to arrest the
sale Of alcoholic stimulants, for as such, pea
Sc, there is very little sold, in comparison
but shall the government tolerate, nay, en-
courage, q traffic in beverages of the mos
deadly poisonous nature, that is killing it,
citizens by wholesale everywhere I?
That these beverages do contain these
deadly poisons, lot the reader but notice II
what an incredible space of time liquor kills
off its victims, by delirium tremens, spasms
and other sudden and violent deaths nova
days, to what it did ten or twenty years ago
And this state Of things, in times of %scarcit,
will Of course be increased! And yet it pro
duces no concern scarcely-there being n
law in North Carolina, that we are aware Of
to punish any one for selling or making Ties
deadly, destructive compounds, though the
are known to be such.

North Carolina Schools.

We are pleased to learn that the Male and
Female Academies at Jonesville, Yadkin coun-
ty, under the management of Rev. W. D.
VAN EATON and Lady, have opened their Fall
sessions under the most fattering prospects.
Students are in attendance from four differ
ent States and still coming in. Persons &C.
quainted with these Schools, and competent
to judge, pronounce them of the first order.
tB Louisburg Female Seminary, under
the superintendance of Mr.. and Mrs. Ray,
enjoys an extensive. and well deserved repu-
tation, for imparting a th~oroughness Of edu-
cation to the Pupils instructed there, as at any
Institution in the country. We are pleased
to learn that it receives encouragement to
keep employed the large and excellent corps
of Instructors which Mr.. Ray has provided.
We know of no Seminary of Learning at
which Parents may more confidently rest as
sured their Daughters will be more faithfully
cared for than at that of Mr.. and Mrs. Ray,
at Louisburg.
1SS~ Messrs. Graves & Wilcox are still at
the head of their popular and Furnishing es-
tablishment-the Warrenton Female Insti-
tute. A very large number of young Ladies
are in attendance this session, who are blessed
with every facility for acquiring a thorough
education. We understand new and addi-
tional Chemical and Philosophical Apparatus
have been fitted up in the Institution, and
are employed in calculating the lectures on
philosophy and chemistry which are regular
y delivered before the classes in these branch.
es. Mr.. Graves is one among the most &C.
complished chemists in the country, and car
now give such an interest to his lectures a;
to enchain the attention of his classes and
thus render his instructions more than ordi
narily profitable. The young ladies them
selves very frequently perform the variou,
experiments necessary to the exemplifcatio1
of their lessons, acquiring thereby a conf
dence in their own proficiency to which the,
would scarcely otherwise attain.
B6E~ The Warrenton Female College, tho
recently established, is doing well, we ar
glad to hear, and will doubtless become on
; of the most valuable and useful of the man,
excellent Female Institutions with which
North Carolina is so highly blessed.

Better News Of the Crons.

We are glad to record better tidings of the
prospects of the Crops in those regions where
the drought has prevailed so long and threat
ened to destroy the crops. Below we give
gleanings from our exchanges
The New York Herald states that q city
merchant, who returned on Saturday from
Cleveland, Ohio, states that the accounts
given regarding the drought and its effects
on Indian Corn, have been greatly exaggera-
ted.
The Columbus (Ga.,) Enquirer, records
]copious showers Of rain and a decided i'm
provement in the appearance of the corn crop,
which, it now thinks, will be an average one.
The Chattanooga, Tenn. Advertiser of same
date, also says Corn is very much improved
by the resent rains. We have met many
friends from different sections of the country,
and from them we gather that this crop will
not be much Of a failure after all. We have
news also from South Georgia and Alabama,
which speak very encouragingly of the pros
poets. The corn crop of Tennessee which is
n very large one generally, is expected now
to be an average yield. We have no doubt
the rain has done equally as much good II
other quarters, and that we shall have the
usual cause for thankfulness for the bountiei
Of Heaven.
The Chicago Daily Tribune, says advice
from the corn crop throughout the West anC
South are coming in more favorable.
In the western portion Of Ohio, including
the Miami and Scioto bottoms, and all tn,
northwestern part Of the State, the corn GRO
promises well, and will yield an average crop
In the northern portion of Indiana and ILL
nois, the crop is also good, and the same re
marks will apply to Michigan, Iowa, Min
nesota, and the northern part of Missouri
From the Southern States the advices ar
very encouraging, so that taking the Who'll
West together, there is no cause for alarm
nor is there much safety in speculations base
upon a failure Of the corn crop. We hear
no place, however, where the potatoe crop
good, or even middling.
In Central Missouri, Illinois and Indiana
and in South Kentucky, and the north-wes
part Of Tennessee, northeastern portion {
Ohio, and Western Pennsylvania, there is n
doubt that the drought has proved very dis
astrous to corn and potatoes, and in thes
sections there will be a scarcity.
BRITIsu CRoPs.-In the Liverpool marke
it will be seen by reference to our News hea
Wheat and Flour, have declined very consi
erably in price, and the fine crops made
Great Britain, will doubtless reduce the pl
ces Of these articles much more. Col. We
writes home to his Courier and Enquirer, u
der date Of London, Oath ult., that the Br
ish Wheat Crop is bountiful beyond all
corded precedent, and predicts that Whet
now worth sixty-fve s~hillings per quarter
London, equal to 81 67 per bushel of SIX
pounds, will be selling before Christmas
less than forty-fve shillings per quarter,
hardly 81 l6 per standard bushel.
