New IDEA-The Columbia Carolinian has
a very clever correspondent at the White Sulphur
Springs, Va, in one Of whose letters we find the
following paragraph:
Gov Adams and Mr. Yancey have some SYM
pathizers here, in their slave trade and agitation
schemes; but We find the spirit of large majority,
who are not specially out-spoken is more conser-
vative. We hear it limited that there is pros
pect of some Yankee arrangements to kidnap the
free negroes of the North and sell them to the
Southern planters-no reason existing why they
who are without right under the bred Scott deci-
sion, should not be properly reduced to slavery
as wild ones from Africa. If the slave traders are
willing to encourage wars in Africa, they will show
more chivalry and pluck in fighting the rascally
abolitionists, who protecting the free negroes
against their best interests. The free negroes of
the North fair game, and the abolitionists
should be whipped into surrendering them; if they
are not, they will constantly steal the new i'm
portations. Possibly instead of being whipped,
they may find it to their interest to sell these out
laws to the South. The argument of humanity
will be concerned in civilizihg and making useful
the lazy and worthless free negroes of the North,
who are now l'uges consumere moti-born to eat
corn.

A GREAT WEDD1NG.-The New York papers
are giving glowing descriptions of the preparations
making for "big wedding" soon to take place in
that city. The expected bridegroom is Cuban
gentleman who tiourishes with the name of Esteban
81 Cruz oVieda-the lady's name is Fanny Bart
lett, daughter of Capt Bartlett of Maine, late of
the U. 3. Navy The Cuban gentleman is said to
De worth four millions Of dollars, only. Of course
ne Is none the worse for possessing this small pile
OF money, and of course it had nothing to do with
causing young" American belle, yet in her teens,
to fall in love with Spaniard. She will marry
the man, not the money although the latter ar
ticlc is not Objectionable and will be found very
servIceable. He has already bought 100000
worth of Jewelry for his intended, and other out
hts will be on equally as extravagant scale. The
wedding is to take place about the middle of Au-
gust, the ceremony to be performed first by Pro-
testant minister and then by Roman Catholic
priest. Great humbuggery.

AGRICULTURE IN SwITZERLAND.-A recent
traveller in Switzerland says of farms and farming
in that country, that no good terraced land can be
had there for less than S4OO to 500 per acre. and
the quantity of such land is per cent of the
tire territory. No man owns more than 10 to Is
acres of such ground. In that country investments
are more for security rather than profit, and p
per cent. is usually satisfactory.

bS- " The Superiority of the Present Age" is
the subject of an Address delivered before the
Franklin Literary Society of Mr. Horners School
at Oxford, N. c., by Frank I. Wilson, Esq, of
Raleigh, a copy of which we have received. The
past age is rapidly reviewed and compared with
the present, in order to show the superiority of the
present over the past. If we single out any par
ticular characteristic of the Address, we should
mention that of its practical common sense. 1t
abounds with wholesome instruction to "boys'
Every properly using the term boys instead of
young gentemen) couched in humorous style,
which makes its perusal easy and pleasant The

FRUIT-We return our thanks to Mr. Allen
Brown for nice present of Peaches and Apples
Also, to Mr. NJ D. l.. Moody, for basket of
as fine Peaches as we have ever seen.
The fruit this year seems to be of extra quality,
the peaches especially being remarkably fne which
fact We attribute to the growing interest which is
being felt and manifested by our farmers on the
subject of pomology. We can see no reason why
the science of fruit-rearing not be cultivated
and turned to practical account as we'll in North
Carolina as in any other State. While the east
ern part of the Old North State is manifesting an
interest in the cultivation of the Vine, Several
species of which are indigenous to her soil y the
farmers of the West with their excellent market
facilities, should become generally practical POM
ologists, particularly for those kinds of fruit for
which her soil seems especially adapted.
