Scrofula. or Kings Evil,


Is q constitutional disease, corruption of the
blood, bv which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak. and poor. Being in the circulation, 1t
paryades the whole body, and may burst out

from is attacks, nor is there one which 1t may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is yariouSly
ra,ised by mprrurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices. and,
above ali, by the venereal infection. What.

do hereby issue this, my Proclamation, offering re-
ward of Two Hundred Dollars for his apprehension and
delivery to the Sheriff of Mecklenburg county

THEN AND Now.-When it was supposed by
some that Hon. s. a. Douglas was about to desert
the democratic party on the Lecompton question,
opposition newspapers and opposition men were
inclined to compliment and fatter him, and some
individuals even avowed willingness to vote for
him. This was because they thought he was going
to leave the democratic party and turn his intiu-
ence for its destruction. But as soon as they
found their mistake, they changed their tune and
can now find nothing too hard to say against him.
This sudden change in tone was produced by the
prospect of Mr. Douglas receiving the democratic
nomination for President. In this State, the op-
position press even 60 far as to denounce those
who have expressed a willingness to vote tor Nh
Douglas if nominated; but they have no denuncia-
ton for John A. Gilmer, who pursued the same
course in Congress in regard to the Leeompton
matter that Mr. Douglas did-though Douglas was
more consistent than Gilmer. We do not profess
to be the peculiar friends of Douglas, but we think
he is lust as sound the slavery question as
those of the opposition who are now very busy In
denouncing him.

aag- The Fayetteville Observer is mistaken In
supposing that the Charlotte Democrat manifests
any msgvng to the result of the election in this
District We feel confident of the election of
Crage, though we have never published any boast
ing articles on the subject. 1t has been feared
that his majority might be small in consequence
of the neglect of democrats to attend the polls.
The article which the Observer copies from the
Salisbury Waterman, showing how Walkup uses
up Craige is looked upon about here as little in
nocent glorifcation INDUCED in by our neighbor in
Salisbury The idea ofthe General using up Craige
in debate we presume never seriously entered the
head of any one in this District who know the two
men, We do not mean by this to sneer at Gen.
Walkup's abilitcs-we respect him very much
but he cannot begin to compete with such an old
campaigner as Burton Craige, and we suppose
people don't expect him to do so. If our friends
of the Observer and Waterman could just hear
Craigc knock to pieces the Generals stereotyped
charges against the democratic party about ex-
travagance and corruption, they probably would
be very cautious how they published such things
hereafter

sident of the United States rendered the appoint
ment of Minister to Central America to Hon ID.
NJ Barringer of Raleigh. MIR Barringer felt con
strained by personal considerations, to decline the
appointment.
If MIR B. had found it convenient to accept, he
would, no doubt, have discharged the duties salts
fctoriy and with credit to himself and his country
but by declining the appointment he has most ef-
fectuay refuted the charge of the opposition that
he Joined the democratic party in order to get
office. Such men as Barringer and Osborne were
not Influenced to cooperate with the democracy
by mercenary considerations, but by deep con-
