The Cape Fear Appropriation.

We have, at length, the pleasing assurance that
the Bill making the appropriation for Bar will
receive the sanction of the President, if, indeed, it
has not already received it This removes the last
doubt upon the subject. Our Harbor is now in the
way of being made among the BEST if not the very
best. the Southern coast The General Govern
ment has done, and, feel assured, will continue
to do its part in the matter 1T remains for our
citizens to do theirs. To place themselves, by the
Road to Charlotte, or other direct communica-
ton with the West, in position to render Whining
ton what she ought to be, and what she is destined
to be-the shipping port for all Western Carolina
The members of our delegation from the West, who
exerted themselves wasmly and manfuly for the sue
cess of our Bill, we feel assured, looked to this
looked to Wilmington-as port for North Carolina
products and North Carolina business, and they mus
not and will not be disappointed.
We feel that violating no private conf
dence-that only doing what Mr.. Ashe would
cheerFully do himself when We add, that while that
gentleman cannot but regard the vote upon the Bill
as peculiarly fatlering to his feelings, he ye
acknowledges, with equal pride and pleasure the OBJ
! legations which he owes to his colleagues of boil
parties to whose active and Jealous cooperation he
attributes much, if not most of the result This CO
operation given nobIy and freely and earnestly
and without thought of party distinction, but in thu
genuine spirit of North Carolnians anxious for th
| honor anu welfare of the Old North State.

Congress Both Houses working along, and
will perhaps, be ready to adjourn at the time fixed
upon at the beginning of next month The House, by
majority of l5 we think has passed the River and
Harbor Bill, pretty nearly as it came from the Com
mittee on Commerce. Also, the Bill amending some
details of the Postage Law. I'VE published the sub
stance OF the amendments some time snce the chief
of which is max ing all postage payable in advance,
except in of letters coming from other countries
Tho Senate continues engrossed with the Home
stead Bill, which will probably pass that body, with
some slight changes from the form in which came
from the House. Spite of the confident assertions of
certain Washington letter walters, we still stick to
our belief that the Bill will be returned to the House
in which it originated, with the objections of the
resident
1t would seem that of the sly ones like Mr..
Clayton of Delaware ard Mr.. Seward Of New York,
begin to smell MICE, and have given the Know
Nothings' the cold shoulder. These old heads have
no confidence in The wind and bottom of the new Or
ganization 1t won't do for long race. 1t is only
goot for single dash of quarter; they seem to
think.
Perhaps they are right The excitement started
too 1t won't hold out for the great in 1856
characterization has been made. Better luck next
time.

Ephraim KiIby icon of Abraham Kir. by) was born Feb. 2s, 1761. Ills birth 's'Feeo'ded on our town Eeco.ds. and we are not aware that 1t is found on the res oords ot any other town.

During inc following year, his father, {" Roger Kir> by of Woodbury." (wlo had long been n lend~hoIder here) gave him homestead in this town, on which he may have res sided several years previously. doubtless took it's name from Roger, the grand- .father of Ephraim.
 As Woodbury was settled at least half century before Lilchfeld, and was much the largest and most important place at the date of which We are speaking, ws know of no good reason 10 conclude that its citizens would be particularly anxious to have tLe record of the births of their children recorded here instead Of there.
