The Charlotte Bulletin-Its Democracy.

The Charlotte Bulletin-1ts Democracy.
We have watched with nc. little interest the long
and tedious examination Of our cotemporary, by
the political NJ. DIS, and we find that according to
its own statement Of the extent and nature OF Its
malady it is really in critical condition, 1t IS
kind of democratic, kind of whig, and kind OF
neutral but little m democratic than anything
else. To show its various positions we will quote
from it:
"But through respect to the head of the leader
of the Democratic Press in North Carolina we
answer: We Democrats and always have
been, the Senior dating back his association with
the Democracy twenty eight years."
That's democratic with exception. viz:
the leader of the democratic press, [Standard).
The Standard is not the leader of the Democratic
Press in North Carolina. 1t is the central organ
We Cor one, know no leader but the principles of
the party. But we copy again
Being Democrats expect to cooperate with
the party by voting for its nominee if be or they
are sound and reliable men,
The first portion of this sentence is democratic
the other-pardon US friends Bulletin, if we say it
is arrogance. By this an Editor of paper
sets himself up judge, whose judgment is to
be relied upon more than the united wisdom of
convention of gentlemen, it assumes that the Edi-
tor Editors of political paper know more than
say fifty men! Why, such course of conduct
Is nothing less than anarchy-one man power-the
very opposite ofdemocraey.
The Bulletin says: Yet, will exercise the
right to canvass the claims and qualification of
ali who seek Office or may be brought forward for
position
That's neither democratic whig
The following is the only portion OF the Bulletins
article which we consider demccratic but this
portion alone is excellent, read it:
1--WE will defend and aid to sustain the Democ-
racy when they adhere to the principles of Democ
racy as expounded by its fathers; but rebuko
those who by a temporising process lose sight of
the paramount duties of the party. Let the De

The African Slave Trade

The administration cannot be too highly
commended for the efficient and early steps
it has taken to suppress the African Slave
Trade. In :hs as we'll as in nearly all other
instances, is demonstrated most satisfactorily,
to the people of the Nation, the efficiency, abil
ity and excellent management of those whose
province and duty it is to administer the laws
of the land According to the joint treaty,
with England, the United States is required
20 place force of Eighty guns, on the Afri-
can Coast the administration, however, has
increased the number of Guns to one hundred
and sixteen.
Secretary Toucey, has ordered the following
squadron, with efficient officers 10 each vessel,
to the coast of Africa, The Steamers San
Jacinto, Mystic, Sumpter, Mohican, and the
Sloops of War Constellation, Portsmouth
Marion and Vincennes The Constellation is
the flag ship.
On our coast the steamers Crusader,
Lieut.. Maffit, the Mohawk, Lieut., Craven ;

G. G.. Williamson. These Vessels are intended
also to cruise upon the Cuban shore in order
to detect any Slavers which might elude the
vigence of the Naval force on the African
coast They are of much Iigter draft than
those formerly employed by us hence they
will be the better prepared to chase vessels in
this lawless business in shallow water.

fB@ The New York and New Haven Railroad Company have for several years run special train from New Haven to Bridgeport for the accom- moda tion of Naugatuck passengers, who go to the City of Films. Having ascertaned that this extra train cost several thousand dollars more than it benefit ted the trunk road, it has been hauled of, much to the inconvenience of the public. We cannot, how ever, see that the Directors can be justly blamed for the course they have pursued. On the contra ry, disposed to be thankful for past fvors the surest way of getting more. We have no doubt some arrangement will be made by which passen- gels will be relieved from hours delay at the Junction, and that both the New Haven and Nau gatuck Companies will do all that is practicable to accomplish so desirable a result We know that the Presidents of the two Companies had an inter view recently on this subject in which both parties expressed the determination to accommodate the public to the extent ot their power and far is consistent with the other connections on their roads.

READING FOR THE MILLION T. B. Peterson & Brothers have issued the second volume of their new and cheap edition Of Charles Dickens Works for the Million, to be completed in 28 volumes, one to be issued on each and every Saturday. for twen- ty-dve cents volume. The cheap literature of former years did not tend much to elevate their readers, but the reading that Peterson now gives, at prices which scarcely cover the cost of printing, is of the very best character, and must exercise wholesome influence over the public taste, by ma king all readers acquainted with the works of the best fiction writers in the English language. A reader in the country for one dollar can have the first four of these volumes transmitted to him, or the whole twenty eight volumes will be sent for five dollars. The second volume issued to-day, contains the conclusion of Oliver Twist and the commence ment of Pickwick Papers.

One of tie most striking and lovely i'm provements made in our town for many years, is the formation, in East Bridgeport, of beautiful lake, nearly mile in length. and an eighth of mile in width. This "new crea- tion" has been caused by overfowing the mea- dows all the way from Old Mill Bridge to the railroad crossing at the head of Cooks Mill Pond," at which latter place substantial dam has been erected, for the double purpose of keeping back the tide, and of forming this fine fresh water lake. The high shores which skirt either side of this beautiful body of water will of course furnish 8 number of romantic build- ing sites. The charming grove, only sixty rods east of the Wheeler X Wilson Mammoth Sewing Machine Manufactory, lies directly on the shore and includes some ten acres which will afford a like number of the most delight ful places for private residence in this country. The landscape from this point is superbly mag nificent. Besides the advantage of a beau tiful body of water setting up in alcoves to the very doors, we get from this pleasant local ity splendid view of the salt water, all :he way to Long Island. Although the lake is now only three days old, saiLboats are already riding upon it's bosom, and fiocks of wild black ducks have dropped in' to pay it a visit. This new and valuable improvement has been made by P. T. Barnum, Esq, who it is understood, intends erecting a new Iranistan upon the banks of the lake which, we expect, will soon receive name as euphonious as it's location is romantic and cosy.-Brsdgeport Farmer

Rope walking still fourishes. Gu Wed es- day evening Blondin walked across the Mag ara river, from the American to the Canada shore, most of the way in darkness, two lights which he fastened to the ends of his pole, going out before he was half way across On his return he was surrounded with fire works, consisting of Roman candles, which gave pleasing appearance. He was literal- ly enveloped in blaze. When about mid way he laid down his pole, and stood up erect Inverted. Then he suspended himself below the rope by the heels, and there he remained drumming on his chest until his campfres were all extinguished There he was left, as before, in utter darkness.
 The same day, De Lave walked his rope across the Genessee Falls at Rochester, He had strapped on his back chair and salvcr, upon which were lot of small cakes which were to serve as his lunch. He immediately LOOK up his pole ant, started out When ahout the middle of the chasm he stepped and sat down. Taking the chair from his pack, he adjusted it on the rope, seated hin,- SCH Tn 1t, and composedly ate up the cakes rom the salver, which lay in his lap during .he operation. After delay of ten minutes ne started out again, till he got over the brink or the Falls, and then he carried out his pro- mise to lower himself down to the sheet of wa. ter and dpa draught from the flood. He ii. ea hIs balance pole to the rope, slided down and took drink and then returned to the ron. above with great ease
