be struck at the old party machinery which OBJ

in their own haads, but that it will be welded for

TO our FRIENDS AND CUSTOMERS.
We know that there are few things in which the pub
lie feels less interested than in the private affairs of in
dividuals When we refer to ours at all, wish to
make the reference as brief as possible
DESTROYS to give to the journal local habitaton
as well as NAME" we have purchased lot, and have
commenced the erection of building in which to carry
ON our business to greater advantage than we can do at
present. It is wish to construct this building prop
erly and with reference to the requirements Of
business as also to furnish number Of handsome and
convenient offices We trust that it will not be altogeth
er drawback to the appearance of that part Of the
town in which it is to be located.
All these things require money We never complain,
and seldom dun, but during the present summer we will
have heavy and unusual payments to make in order to
meet obligations incurred for building purposes. If
those indebted to u.s. in larger smaller sums the
may be- will be so kind to come forward promptly
our payments will occasion little or no Inconvenience
May we not ask them to do SO, with feeling oil con-
fdence that fitting response will be made to call
Now is the time when we really need all the money we
can get
We avail ourselves of this opportunity to remind our
friends in the different sections of the State that
subscription books are still open, and that we shall be
happy to receive any number Of accompanied
by the money also to do advertising or job work Our
paper must speak for ITSELF Whether it is worthy Of
support or not is for the public to say. We only
endeaYor to make it SO.

HsThe Northern papers publish rather fuller details
of the by the steamship Nova Scotion than those
given on Wednesday in our Geographic despatch, but
there is really little Of interest The prevailing impress
sion seems to be, that in Europe there is greater conf
dence in the preservation Of peace This is due in
measure to the appearance of pacific article in the
PARIS MOiteu, the official organ Of the French Gov
ernment and in measure asO to the retirement of
Prince Napoleon the Emperors cousin, from the Min
istry of Algeria Having married Italian Princess,
he is regarded as the head of the italian anAustrian
party in France
1t is said that Prince Napoleon docs not ask that
France should intervene in Italy but that she should in
terfere in of Ausrias doing The Austrian in
PREVENTION complained of is in Central Italy, known
the Duches, and also in the Territories OF the Pope
Austria or the Imperial House of Austria asserts re-
versionary right in at least two Of the Duchies-Ius-
cany and Pama-the ducal families being branches of
the imperial family of Austria Hence the Austrian
government claims right to defend possessions which
may at any time lapse to ITSELF
Some speculaons go far as to say that the retire
ment of Prince Napoleon is only temporary-that the
Emperor feels as the Prince doesthat the withdrawal
of the French troops is with the hope that an ensuing
revolution may afford proper excuse for flooding the
Peninsula with French armies advancing from the South
while the Pedmontese would down from the North
taking the Austrians in the rear But these only
speculaions.
We publish elsewhere statement of the armies and
navies of the European powers respectively We rather
think that is not far from truth, save in one par

Many OF our influential and entcrpriSing citizens

No one, who is familiar with the hotel accommodate
tons of Wilmington doubt for a lnoascEt the fact
that thousands OF dollars arc lost to this place every
year in consequence OF our inability to supply the pub
lie with such comforts they readily obtain in any
other town OF equal importance. 1t requires no more
argument to prove the above fact than it dots 10 con
vince ourselves that interests enhanced by cu
tvating commercial intercourse with the neiehboring
States. do not propose to discuss the advantages Of
increased circulation though it is readily admitted
that even increased circulation of thousand
dollars will satisfy and discharge liabilities of perhaps
hundreds OF thousands of dollars in this thriving and i'll
duStrOuS community, III one year. The means or agen
cy that induces the resident who has made his cir
oaating medium elsewhere, to give it in exchange fol-
the produce and industry OF our community, u.s. IN rea

1t matters not whether the nonresident pays his mon

exchange for such merchandise and labor as has been
will be, bought by the produce and industry of
munty, for that agency which induces the trav
eer to spend two dollars with us where he would other
wise spend but dollar is productive agency and
being SUCH it benefits the community in exactly the
same ratio the producer and freighter would be bene
fitted by increasing their exports hundred per centuu
per annum.
It is useless for to ask your valuable space state
what we all know, but when remember that town

population of twelve to fifteen thousand and yearly ex

that NC will construct such building interest
