OBITUARY NOTICE.

Died, on the 14th of January inst, at his
residence in the Town of Charlotte, n. c.,
Mr.. Samuel Knownothing. the youngest and
last son of Coonskin Whigery.
His disease was consumption. caused by
too frequent exposure to the night air, whilst
on his nocturnal peregrinations. For some
time previous to his death, his friends in
this vicinity became very much alarmed a
bout his condition and after many private
consultations, determined, and did, procure
the services of The most distinguished Doc
tor they could get. But Notwithstanding
the ceaseless exertions and great skill of his
physician, poor Samuel continued to sink
under the weight of his Affections until the
18th inst, when he died, leaving his disci-
Piles in great tribulation. AS the deceased
was very rare specimen of humanity, en-
tertaining the most deadly hostility to all
foreigners and Catholics, his followers de-
sign preserving his body, by embalming it,
in American Whiskey, and depositing it on
the shores of the Atlantic ocean, in order to
stay the tide of foreign emigration.
The n. c. Wing and other papers friend
ly to the family, will please copy.

KNOW NOTHING CANDIDATE FOR
PRESIDENCY.

Hon. John NJ. Bolts, of Virginia, is now
prominent, and stands the fairest chance of
receiving the nomination, as the American
candidate for the next Presidency. He is
a man, who, in point of intellect, and bril-
liancy, has few equals in the Union Sal
isbury Herald.
Mr.. Bolts repudiates ''the 18th section OF
the Philadelphia platform-and in return has
been repudiated by Convention of the
Order" lately in session at Richmond
He is dancing to the music of the Banks
party of the North, in the hope of securing
the nomination for the next presidency; but
appearances at present indicate that his
effort will be unsuccessful. He has lost his
Southern friends, without securing the re-
spect of the Abolition wing of his party
As a Southern man, with Northern senti-
ments, he falls between two stools. He
would, however, be very proper candidate
for the Know Nothing party. They may
as well die with the Bolts as any other dis
ease.

LATEST FROM EUROPE.
Arrival OF the steamer Baltic,

The steamer Baltic has arrived at New
York from Liverpool, whence she sailed on
the 18th instant. She brings one weeks
later intelligence than the America There
had been a decline in cotton of an Id to Id,
with sales during the week previous to her
sailing of $4,000 bales.
The prospects of peace remain unaltered.
The London Times, says that Naples has
become favorably disposed towards an al
lance with the Allies. 1t was further ru-
mored that she would send q contingent
force to the Crimea
The Paris correspondent of the Times,
says assurances have been again given in
official quarters of the resolution of France
to carry on the war, in the most vigorous
manner, in the event ofRussia not acceding
to the propositions of the allies, and that
the Emperor and the English are determin
ed not to abate one iota of the terms on
which peace is to be accepted.
1t has been ascertained that the lone
talked of alliance between Spain and the
allied powers has been formally consum-
mated. Spain binds herself to send to the
seat of war ten or twenty thousand men next
Spring, and in return the allied powers
pledge themselves to protect Spanish inter
ests, especially Cuba.

OUR RELATIONS WITH ENGLAND

Negotiations between G. eat Britain and
the United States are still open, dispatches
having been sent out by the last steamer ;
but nothing has TRANSFERRED since the Presi-
dents message to change the aspect of our
relations abroad. Mr.. Champions recall
has been demanded, and the exequaters of
the British Consuls at New York, Philadel-
phia, and Cincinnati, it is said, will be re-
vokcd.
Mr.. Buchanan, however, has not been
recalled, and hopes are still entertained that
the difficulties between the two countries
will be adjusted without Il resort to hostile

me impression that war is inevitable, but
admits that our relations with England are
in q very critical condition. We are still
of the opinion that England will yield, as
we are satisfied that our Government asks
nothing but what is right-and England
knowns, by sad experience, that we will
submit to nothing that is wrong.

A STORY SPOILED.

The Know-Nothing papers of the country
have been reading with Indignation"
letter from the Hon. R. c. Puryear, of this
State, retailing conversation he had with
Horatio King, 1st Assistant Postmaster
General, in which Mr.. K. is represented as
declaring that ''if a native-bOrn citizen and
foreign Roman Catholic, both equally
competent, were to apply for the appoint
ment of Postmaster, he should be copelled
to appoint the foreign Catholic" Mr.. King,
in letter which appears in the american
Organ" denies the correctness OF the Hon.
Mr.. Puryear's representations Of the con-
versation alluded to, Mr.. King says: Mr..
Puryear ''asked, if Know Nothing and an
Irish Catholic, both equally competent,
were presented for an office, which would
receive the appointment? replied, that l
would answer by saying that the fact Meth
er of his being an Irishman nor Catholic
would prevent his receiving the appoint
ment, if he was good naturalized citizen.
/ might, also, in strict accordance with the
truth, have added, that in appointment of
postmasters, neither mans birth plcae nor
his religion is ever made the subject of in
quiry; but denial of the obligations i'm
posed and the rights secured by the consti-
tuition is matter which does not escape
attention"

SUDDEN DEATH.
people.

A Painter by the name of JAMES REA,
died suddenly near this place, On the road
leading to Lancaster, under the following
circumstances, as it is said: He had left
Town with two or three other men late in
the afternoon, walking; on the way it was
proposed they should have a footrace, which
they did, and at the end of which, REA COM
planned of feeling badly. His companions
tried to carry him to some neighbours house,
but finding this impossible, they left him
and went in scar oh of q horse, which having
procured. they returned and found him dy-
ing. Some of them posted Immediately for
a physician, but he was dead before any aid
could be afforded. On the 23rd Coroner's
inquest was held upon the body, but we
have not yet learned what was the verdict.
We have understood that some singular
bruises we're found on his person, but moth
ing leading to the suspicion that he had been
murdered. The general impression seems
to be that he died from the effects of cold.
I Chester Standard.
Mr.. Rea, whose sudden and mysterious
death is alluded to above. formerly resided
in this town, where he has a mother and
other relations. His remains were brought
here on the Southern cars, on Thursday last,
and inferred the following day in the church
cemetery.

A large number of strangers and persons
from the county are in attendance, crowding
our hotels to their utmost capacity. Yester-
day the noise and confusion amongst the
auctioneers, engaged in selling property OF

WAR IN HAYTI

Advices from Hayti, TO the 1st instant,
state that an action has taken place be-
tween the armies of the empire and the re-
public (the Haytians and Dominicans) in
which his Supreme Highness the black EN-
peror of Hayti, (Soloque) got the worst of
it, losing considerable portion of his ma
terials for war. The Emperor troops were
with their expectations, and large portion
of them had revolted. Here is coming o
pretty finale to the existence of the Ameri-
can race on the Island. The negroes first
barbarously murdered their masters, then
set up for " republic, which afterwards be-
came monarchy: and now, after life of
degencracy, both in social and political con-
dltlon' are making war upon their black
nelghbors. Let those who believe in their
mequality,and are unwilling to have it recog-
nised' become acquainted with the history of
the negroes in Hayti
1t is stated that the Emperor lost between
200 and 300 soldiers, with MANY of his hest
officers, besides all his munitions of war,
provisions. and the Emperor's military chest,
containing all the funds intended for the
prosecution of the war.

defeat is represented as most complete.

TO the tune of more than a column of that
paper, I'm finding fault with us, for our ap-
proval of the Presidents Message. We
cannot undertake 70 argue with man who
maintains. as this writer does, the absurditv
that the Democrats and not the Know
NothinEs of Congress arc responsible for the
failure to elect Speaker. We will merely
remark tat he is not alone in his condcmna
ton Of those who approve the Message.
Hale, the abolition Senator from New

are equally opposed to it and its supporters.
We cannot withhold from our readers the
last grand flourish of the trumpet of this
writer. 1T Is too good to be lost Hear
him:
