evening you remain until two o'clock in the morning,
when you start for Raleigh arriving at the latter place
before five o'clock, not in amabe mood, as no night
traveller is AT the hotels you get enough to eat and
fault to find with the grub unless you are cross and
cantankerOus We see no reason for grumblng, and as
little necessity for putting Travelling is nothing in these
latter DAYS even though you went to other side of Jor
dan and bought return ticket. Compared with flush
times the amount Ct travel now next thing to nothing
Raleigh does not appear to be much changed, and we
actually heard talk of hard times which do not appear
to be confined to Wilmington The capitol grounds are
improved and we are glad that something has been done
tOr them. They will look very well in the summer We
may be wrong in our notion but somehow we never did

We found Messrs Holden d Wilson employed as

Our NATIONAL PHYs1oGNoMY.- lata writer on
America one James Sterling, travelling Scotchman,
some time since, in work entitled Letters from the
Slave States made many original and reflective, though
not always complimentary remarks on the United States
That he something Of observer, is evident from
the following comment on the American face:
Some say the Americans have no physiognomy-a
great mistake, think. To me their physognomy seems
most strongly MARKED bearing deep impress of that in
tensy which is the Of their being The features
of the young furrowed with lines of anxious
thought and determined will. You read upon the ma
tons brow the extent of the enterprise and the nens
y of its desires Every American looks if his eye
grng into the far West and the far future. Nay
his mental physognomy is determined by the ear
nestness Of purpose The American never plays, not
even the American child. He nothing for those
games and sports which the delight of the English
man. He is Indifferent to the play either of mind Or
muscle. Labor is his element, and his only relaxation
from hard work is fierce excitement Neither does he
laugh. The Americans, imagine, are the most serious
people in the world. There Is play even in their fan
cy French wit is the sparkle of the diamond that daz

lightning over half world.

The National Democracy.

1t is fair to test the principles of the
modern democratic party by its repre-
sentatives--these representative it is
reasonable to conclude are the opponents
of the party, expressing its wishes and
purposes. That the power Of the great
body OF the democratic party now re-
sides in the slave holding states is mar
shaded and led on by slave holders and
negro drivers, is fact to palpable to be
denied. The present national democra.
Icy is as etfectualy under the control of
the slave holding interest, as is the
slave under the control of his master.
The vote on the Lecompton Constitution
was held by the administration as the
test of democracy; ALL anti, Lecomptonites
of whatever antecedents, have been put
under the ban of prescription, and treat
ed rs enemies of the democratic party
If we would know how the democracy
has put itself on the record, and where
its strength is found, let us take the
vote on the Lecompton Constitution.
The delegations from the following
states voted SOLID against Lecompton !;
that is, for the Crittenden and Montgo-
merry amendment, viz:-Illinois, Iowa,
Maine, Massachusetts,, Michigan, New
HAMPSHIRE, Rhode Island, Vermont and
Wisconsin.
The following states voted solid for
Lecompton, viz Alabama, Arkansas,
Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and
Virginia. The North Carolina delega-
ton all voted for with only one ex-
ception. The other great states were
divided, but voted against Lecompton
as follows New York % to 10, Ohio
10 to ., Pennsylvania IA to II, Indiana
s to 3.
OF the number who voted against
Lecompton 92 were republicans and
twenty two democrats, from the north
ern states; and six Americans from the
South.
OF the number voting for Leeompton,
were democrats and Ameri-
cans from the Southern states, and thir-
ty-one democrats from the free states.

THE USE OF SLANG BY YOUNG Wo-
IEN.-Timothy Titcomb has the follow
ng sensible remarks on this subject:
Young women are very apt to imbibe
another bad habit, namely, the use of
slang. Twas in the street the other
day when / met an elegantly dressed
roung lady and gentleman, on the side
walk. My attention was the more at
racted to them because they were evil
lently strangers. AT any rate, they i'm
pressed me as being very thoroughly
refined and genteel people. AS I came
within hearing of their voices-they
were quietly chatting along the way
/ heard these words from the woman's
lips; "You may bet your life on that"
Twas disguised. could almost have
boxed her ears. ] remember once be-
ing in the company of belle-one who
had had winters reign in Washington.
Some kind of game was in progress,
when, in moment of surprise, she ex-
claimed, "My gracious p Now you
may regard this as fnical notion, but
| tell you that woman fell as fatty in
my esteem as if she had uttered an oath.
