LynchbIiPg.

We publish this week the proceedings
of a meeting held at Lynchburg, by the
perusai of which it will be seen that
the citizens of that place have deter
mined to put in their claims for the fu>
ture Capitol of Butte County. How
the people Of Lynclburg dare to act
thus after the blood and thunder an
nouncements from the few buildings To-
Gated near the ferry in Ophir township
and yclept Oroville, is matter of won
der to Us. If they only had water at
the little village near the Ferry we sup
pose they would inundate Lynchburg
for daring to present herself as candl-
date. 1t has been thundered forth BY
the organ of the Ophir Forty that the
contest was between Bidwell and them
selves. and yet Lynchbu~g seems not to
so understand the matter, and undis-
mayed, presents her claims for the pr'ze.
We believe with the gentlemen of the
Lynchburg committee, that they stand
just as good a chance for the county
seat as any other town, and if there is
anything in the bill, or in our free sys-
TEN of government, which prevents
them from entering the lists for the race
on the 10Th, We have failed to discover
it.
Oroville should now throw up her
claims and vote for Lynchburg, as they
have always stated that their principal
desire was to have the county seat re-
moved to some point of easier access
from the valley than Bidwell. The diff
ference between Oroville and Lynch
burg in this respect is nothing BY sup
porting Lynchbnrg the Orovillians vii
prove that they were honest in their ar
guments for removal, and not governed
by selfish and speculative ends, and a
desire to increase their own fortunes al
the expense of the county.
Come, gentlemen of Oroville, walk u
to the support of Lynchburg, or shos
the emptiness of all your arguments III
favor OF removal. by weak exhibition
of your own impotency. There is no use
of venting YOUR disappointment in
threats. They avail not with sensible
and determined men, and only exhibit
the fact that you feel your little specula-
tion has ssweakened"

Mr.. FILLMORE vs. Mr.. DoNELsoN.-In the Virgini-
an-and enthusiastically introduced-is the synopsis
of speech of Mr.. Fillmore in Louisville in 1863
We copy from it as published in the Virginian. We
ask particular attention to the itdtcsed parts the
italics our own, and put there to attract the at
tention of our readers:
"Mr. Fillmore spoke of the adoption of the COM
promise measures~of 1850, especially of the fugitive
Slave law. This law, he said, hal some provisions
in it to which he had objections He regretted the
necessity Of its being passed at ALL but the const-
tuition required the giving up of fugitive slaves and
it was not for him to decide whether this was conf
pact he had sworn to maintain it, and he would do
so to his last hour.
When the bill came to him from the two houses
in the midst of hurry, confusion and difficulties he
examined it, and doubt up in his mind aoheth
En- 1T acas not unconstitutional denying the right
of ha6eas corpus to the tugitire slape He referred
the question to accomplished Kentucky lawyer,
his attorney General, who gave his opinion that the
law was not a violation of the constitution and,
thereupon, said Mr. Fillmore, gave my signature
to the bill, but in doing SO, drew down upon my
devoted head, knew should, the walls of wrath
from abolitonism and freesoilism."
The idea of any man being sound who palters
with abolitionism by speaking of his COLLECTIONS
to some undccared provision of the Fugitive Slave
Law-who regrets the necessity of its being passed
at al-that is who regrets that the constitution
1ures the abolitoniss to surrender up runaway ne
groes-and who seemed at first to think that fugi-
tive slave entitled to the right of habeas corpus
and yielded at last only to the opinion of the Attor
ney General-the idea of such man being sound is
to our mind preposterous and illogical.

New AND IMPORTANT ,PRoJECT.-It may not be
generally known to the citizens of Norfolk and
Portsmouth that work now projected in North
Carolina may be of the greatest benefit to these cit
les, in commercial point of view. We allude to
the building of short line of railway from the ex-
haustless coal fields on Deep river, in that State to
the Metropolitan city of Raleigh. The distance is
only about SO miles, and charter was granted by
the last Legislature of North Carolina, for its
struction.
We have not at present the space to examine the
merits of this enterprise at length, and will merely
give short statement, SO as to apprize our mer-
chants of the existence of such beneficial and fea-
slble scheme. All are aware that our present road
to Raleigh can be traverscd in day, and the small
addition of thirty miles could be travelled in
the same time. If this road is constructed we would
then connect our wharves, in days travel, with
the immense wealth fthe Deep river region, which
abounds in exhaustless beds of coal and iron, and
mitless forests of the best timber With this con-
nection we would always be able to supply the de-
mands for coal in our market, and could become
port for the expectation of the article. In addition
to the commercial Importance of such connection,
we learn that in all probability Congress will estab
fish National armory and foundry on Deep river,
"a measure for that purpose being now before the
Military Committee ofthe House Of Representatives,
and as we learn receives most favorable consider
alton at their hands,
With such foundry established at the point sug-
gested who can calculate the benefits resulting to
Norfolk with her Navy Yard and coal station for
national vessels We learn that the country in which
these coal fields situated is rich in all agricuitu-
raj products, county of Chatham in which this
road is mostly situated, being the largest wheat
growing county in North Carolina. But intepend-
ent of the agricultural products and the foundry,
the trade in coal iron and timber would amply re-
pay all that is required to be expended in building
this link. The sever roads Of North Carolina would
be fed with freight Dy this important connection
with the coal regions, and the stock of all the
Panies including our Seaboard road would be great
ly inhanced in value.
So much importance is attached to this subject
by our North Carolina friends that we understand
committee has been appointed by the late annual
meeting of stockholders of the Cape Fear and Deep
River Navigation Company, to visit Norfolk and
Portsmouth to enlist their aid ir pressing upon Con-
gross the expedency of establishing national ar
mory and foundry on Deep river and also to con-
suit with our merchants about the construction of
the aIlimportant link to the coal fields of Chatham
Norfolk argus.

BARNUNs Observation-Disclosures has performed
many wonders, but the greatest of all is the follow
ing: 1t consists in nothing less than passing down
the Niagara cataract in vessel constructed for this
purpose The vessel lisa ball of gutta percha thirty
feet in diameter supported in its interior by hoops.
rings OF STEEL and wood. Strings of gutta percha'
coming from four points Of the rings meet in the
centre OF the sphere, where they are fixed to coat
OF mail Of the same material. This is so fixed that
man buckled in it hangs supported by the four
strings safe in the middle Of the ball. At the lower
end of the ball. where the lower part of the mail is
directed, sorna lead is put SO that swimming in the
water the head side will be turned upwards In this
upper part there is hole which may be opened bv
the person in the interior. The bali is so strong Az
tosustain, without danger, the shock of the fall
On account of its size it cannot sink, nor can the
person buckled in the coat of mail suder any harm
from the violence Of the fall As soon as the ball
after its fa has found its centre Of gravity, its in
habitant unbuckles himself opens the flap, and gets
out OF the hold, waving the United States colorss
under the applause Of some $4,000 or 1000 spec.

each, upon the occasion of his first performance.
From every such performance gain Of $4,000 or
