GOV. BRAGG IN THE WEST.

The last Asheville News says: !" Gov. Bragg and
Mr. Gilmer reached this place on Saturday evening
last and left the following day for Cherokee: Both
gentlemen looked in good health and condition for
laborious and fatguing canvass. To our friends in
the lower part of the State would say that are
confident of carrying this District for Bragg by q
larger majority than we did last summer. Know
nottingham is totterng and falling to pieces every
where in this section and candidate who endorses
its denominations, who was opposed to his country
in the Mexican war, who has voted steadily against
free suffrage Mr.. Gilmer has, will find little to
comfort him in the Mountain District Set us down
for twenty five hundred majority for Bragg"

SPEECH OF Hon. ASA BIGGs-We have read with
deep interest the speech delivered in the Senate OF
the United States, the sOth of April, on the Naval
Retiring Board by the Hon: Asa Biggs, OF North
Carolina, which we find in the Washington Union.
Like every thing that proceeds from Mr.. B'ggs the
argument is clear and convincing the facts we'll ar
ranged, and the sentiments sound and patr olc. Its
author is firm and consistent Democrat OF the OLD
school, thoroughly imbued with Democratic Prn-
ciples, which he expounds with ability and f.rce.
We have often thought that the remark said to have
been made OF the venerable and amented Macon ny
distinguished foreigner in Washington, that whilst
same men were Democrats from education, ne lMr.
Macon) was Democrat by nature, is applicable 10
Mr.. Bisgs. He discerns, as by intuition, and in.
stinctively loves Democratic doctrines; and it at
any time We should be found to disagree with him
in relation to fundamental questions, we would ieel
it our duty to review opinions before making
up definite issue with him. We shall take occa-
sion soon to Law his entire speech before our readers

RALEIGH AND CASTOR AND ROANOKE VALLEY RAIL-
RoAps-Mr. James NJ. Bullock recently deput-
ed by the Directors of the Roanoke Valley Railroad,
to attend meeting Of the Directory OF the Kaeigh
and CASTOR Road, for the purpose OF presenting our
claims upon that Company Tor their assistance in
building 4 Depot at the junction, and to represent
our company in any other matter, which might come
up for discussion. 1t is gratifying to us to inform
our friends, that Mr.. Bs mission was completely
successful. He secured the passage of a resolution
authorizing the construction Of depot at the point
desired u,.der the joint superintendent OF the Press
dents of the two Companies, each company to b, ar
an equal share of the cost of construction More
than this, he succeeded in convincing the Directors
of that Company that they might very properly,
and without any detriment to their own interests,
pay over to us a part of the earnings of our road
during the past year. This they consented to do
so that we may re,y on Immediately getting such
funds as will meet urgent demands.
We are pleased to learn through Mr.. Bullock,
that the Raleigh and CASTOR Directory, indicated,
both by profession and action, purpose to pursue
liberal and generous policy towards our company
We arc convinced from all we have seen and heard
of Mr. Hamilton, the President, that he, particularly
is inclined to extend to every aid and courtesy in
his power Such indeed is the dictate OF good sense,
the prompting OF an enlightened seif',nterest.
The two companies reciprocally dependent,
one upon the other. 1t is true the dependence in
the is unequal i'll degree, but still it is re-
cprocal. As the body may exist without the llInb,
SO may they without us. But when they lose US
they lose very important member. The products
of the Roanoke and Dan River Valleys are not to
be discarded as an Insignificant item OF business
One of the most magnificent railroad enterprises
of Virginia, yea of the South derives very flood
tide of trade from this same source. cold 'nd'tf-
erence the part of those who ought to be our
friends, might drive to seek alliances with rivals
or enemies. No feuds SO bitter, so relentless,
SO ruinous as family quarrels
We hope these moral truths may never have
any practical application to the relations Of our COM
pany with the Raleigh and CASTOR company. The
recent action of their directory authorises US to in
dulge such hope. We united in interest," we
ought to be in feeling and in action.
We take this occasion to express our high graf
ification at the recent reelection of Mr.. James Nj.
Bullock to the position of Director of our road His
success in his late mission to Raleigh, while it is an
evidence of his efficiency and usefulness as an OIL
GER likewise demonstrates the wisdom Of the Stock
holders in his reappontment.

We regret to learn that the very high freshet in
the Cape Fear River has done considerable injury
to the works of the Cape Fear & Deep River Navi-
gaticn Company. The temporary dam at Cross
Greek has been washed out. The woodwork of
some dam passed the Clarendon Bridge tearing
loose boats, rafts &c. The Clarendon Bridge, at
Fayetteville, escaped by almost miracle.
The above facts CLEAN from the Fayetteville Ar
gus and other authorities in Fayetteville We have
heard here, from good authority, that the whole

timber part at least, is lodged above the mouth Of

ST. Louis, May 12.-The Steamer Star of the
West which left Kansas last Saturday, arrived here
to-day, with highly important news. Governor
Robinson and family took passage on the Star of the
way hther Gov Robinson was waited upon by
committee appointed by the citizens Of Kansas, and
Motif, that they should dctain him tie ground
that he was fleeing from the territory to avoid arrest
on an indictment for treason, which had been found
against him by the Grand Jury, i'll the United States
District Court. Gov. Robinson replied that h, had
been informed by of the Jury that attempt
had been made to find bill of indictment against
him, but that the attempt had failed. This however,
did not satisfy the committee, and they insisted
that he should remain in Kansas. Robinson finally
consented to remain on the persuasion of Mr.. Par
kinson, the Captain Of the boat, and Mr.. HARVARD
of Baltimore. The committee agreed to send a
messenger to Kansas to ascertain if an indictment
had been found; if not then all expenses attending
Robinson's detention would be paid by the commit.
tee. The committee consisted Of Gen. Shields, Mr.
Sawyer, and number Of the most respectable cili-
zens of Kansas.
1t is reported that despatch has been received
from Leavenworth, stating that an armed body of
men route for Lawrence, for the purpose of
destroying the evidence taken by the congressional
committee.

Ex-Governor Reeder refused to obey the writ,
and appealed to the Congressional Committee; but
they decided that they had power in the case.
Mcssrs. Howard and Sherman, however, expressed
their opinion that Recder protected from arrest
by his privilege; but Mr.. Oliver disscnted and said
that the committee could not stand between him and
the marshal. Reeder said that although his life
in danger in Lecompton, he would remain on his
privilege in attendance at the sittings of the com.
mittee, and he warned the marshal and his assistant
not to touch him at their peril. The marshal then
left but was expected to return the 9th with the
U. S. dragons.
Judge Lecompte charged the grand jury on the
7th May to indct all the State officers and members
Of the Legislature for high treason; but up to the
9th no such indictments had been found by the
Court, so far as the proceedings have been made
public ..- . ......

The TWENTIETH AT WHM1NGroN.-It seems that
our neighbors are about to have time of it, on the
Goth instant it being the occasion of the visit of the
Fayetteville Independents and the Oak-City Guards
to participate in the celebration of the anniversary
of the Wilmington Light Infantry and Of the Neck
lenburg Declaration of Independence. 1t is an
nounced in some of our exchanges that business
will be suspended and the stores closed on that
casion. This is spirited move on the part Of the
citizens of Wilmington, and should be responded to
with zeal by the Fayetteville and Raleigh Compa-
MES. 1t being Court-week here many of the MEM
bers of the Oak City Guards will doubtless be pre-
vented from attending but are certain from the
spirit which usually characterizes them, that res
pectable show will be made. 1t is due to the char
acter of the corps that this should be so it is also
due to our City, whose credit in this respect will
be entrusted to them; and, above all, it is due to
the citizens of Wilmington and their spirited Light
Infantry, that good turnout be made to partakc of
their hospitality. Attention! Oak City Guards
