Our New Senator

It will be seen by the reports of the proceedings of
both Houses that on Friday last Hon. T. L. Clngman,
so long the representative from the Mountain District
took his leave of the House Of Representatives and
sworn in as the successor of Hon. Asa Biggs in the
Senate of the United States Mr.. Clngman, although
still comparatively young man, was at the time of his
resignation one of the Oldest representatives in the
House. having served since l843 with the exception
of single term. His reputation is national one, in
the fullest sense of the word. Few men have studied
politics assiduousy and few, if any, better in
formed on political subjects. He is native of that
part Of Suy county now included in the new county Of
Yadkn and in passing through the village of Hunts
ve some years ago. house was pointed out to us as
that in which he was born He graduated with the
highest distinction at Chapel Hill and entered the pro-
esson of the law but having almost Immediately after
wards engaged in public life, we presume that his pro-
fesson must to great extent have been postponed to
his political career Previous to bis election to Con
gre in 1843 he had served in both Houses of the State
Legislature He is now citizen of the town of Ashe-
ve the seat Of justice for the county of Buncombe.
Mr. Clingman is unmarried, is perhaps little turned
of forty years of age but looks younger than he u.s. be-
ing of slight figure and rather thin face very quiet in

that is the impression made upon stranger. He must
however possess high social qualities to have obtained
the hold he has upon the affections of the citizens of his
district among whom he possesses influence almost
without parallel.
Mr. Cngman's political history is fully identified
so thoroughly mixed up with the political history Of
the country that review of one would almost necessa
ry involve sketch Of the other, and for this we have
neither time nor space at present.
Formerly wing, Mr.. Clngman became convinced
years ago that the party with which he had been acting
thoroughly denationazed and that the only nation
al party with which southern patriots could consistently
act with any hope Of good the Democratic party
Even while nomnay wing, his votes showed that he
not bound by the shackes of party far to lend
his sanction to anything nmical to the interests of the
South Or speaking accurately, to the equality Of
the States His influence contributed largely to the
election of Gov Reid and the success of Gen. Pierce
this State Mr.. Clngman has, for several years past
been an avowed and consistent Democrat.
AS we have already remarked Mr.. CIingman's polit
cal history is part of the political history of the country
and it is not necessary for us to dwell upon it
His position, of the leading of the country
will hardly be questioned by friend foe, and few can
doubt that he will sustain the reputation and the honor
Of North Carolina on the floor of the Senate with
marked ability and devotion.

What Makes the Negro Black.

The following explanation by DR.. Draper Of EH
York. possesses interest, chiefly because show
what may be said on the subject:
Human blood ismade up of little cells, containing am
other elements, haematin, reddish substance which,
largely made up of iron. One of the duties of the live
is the removing of the old blood cells and the forming
of new ones and this duty includes the carrying @
from the system of all excess of haematin Ahd&
mate dsturbs the normal action of the blood and a
of the liver Imperfect oxygen attends great heat add
to the darkness of the artera blood, while by the
getic respiration which it involves there is an cVgb
ness and torpidy of the liver The haematn, thertn
by this inaction of the great cleaning agent, th

lower and spherical cells of the cuticle, which it
bronzes from orange tawny to negro black, according
to the heat Of the climate, the inactivity of the HT
and the amount of haematn left as refused in thesyH
Cold checks the action of the liver equally with heat
and, therefore, the complexion of the Est lmaux
proaches that of the Magnolian and negro. This
certainly simple and ineligible explanation. tn
tendency Of coloring matter to deposit itself in the c

it would appear that Providence designed only the ted

His Honor, Judge Manly, having sentenced Scott, :

town in state of feverish and unpleasant excite
ment the whole forenoon.
AT eleven o'clock the condemned prisoners taken
out OF jail and placed in wagon They were dressed
in white with their caps The Military Companies
formed in hollow square, and thus the solemn procession
moved down to the place of execution little outside of
the southern limits of town.
When got to the place of execution, found the
prisoners under the gaows, engaged in DEVOTION ear
nestly led by the Rev. Mr. Andrews. In this both
seemed to engage ferventy After singing hymn, Mr.
Andrews offered up prayer for the souls of those about
to depart. We know little of what he said, but felt
that his whole soul was in it.
At the conclusion of the prayer, Mr. Andrews ad-
dressed some words of exhoraton to the unfortunate
men, shook their hands, and bade them farewell earth
Some other gentlemen did the same.
The prisoners assembled the scaffold about twelve o.
clock Scott made some remarks begging all present to
beware of liquor, for that had brought him there
He expressed his belief that his Saviour had
done all for him. Scott TREMENDOUSLY affected,
but behaved with much propriety. Peter begged
all to beware Of carrying weaponsf they had knives
pistols any other deadly weapon, throw them away
Having weapons had brought him to the gaows He
had hope in the mercy of his Redeemer. Peter was
sepossessed than Scott and looked repentant but
not despairing.
At IL minutes after II O'Clock the props were
drawn from under the platform by wagon, and
the two men, whose faces were covered launched
into eternity. SCOTS neck appeared to have been
broken. The knot slipped little around Peter and
he did not die quite soon as Scott In less than four
minutes all motion had ceased with both.
The arrangements by the Sheriff were perfect and all
passed off with order and soemnity becoming the

for such things. We may add that Peter had been

SERENADE OF THE Observation-Disclosures Buchanan
serenaded Saturday night last-as part of the
ceremonies of rejoicing at Washington over the
of the Kansas Bill. The Union says:
About nine o'clock the Marine Band passed up to-
wards the Executive Mansion in a large omnibus, drawn
by four horses, and followed by an immense con-
course The cannoniers were also out, and thundered
forth salute from their edpiece opposite the north
front of the Executive Mansion while the band taking
its position beneath the portico, played Hail Coum-
bia.'' Before they had completed, dense crowd had
congregaed and constantly increased by arri-
vals until at least two thousand persons assembled
including quite number of ladies. The time, the
place. the exultant cheers the loud booming of the can
non, the patriotic strains of the band-a combined to
form picturesque and imposing scene, which will long
be remembered by those who fortunate enough to
witness it.
At the close of the national anthem three cheers
proposed and given to the President of the United
States and ere they had subsidized Mr.. Buchanan ap-
peared at the window, the hall door, He appear
ed to be in excellent health and spirits and when the
cheering with which he greeted hushed that
he could be heard he addressed the assembled multitude
in clear and distinct voice. with his usual pleasing style
of eOquence.
