CRIMES AND IT'S SYMPATHl-
XERS.

We observe that the Northern pco.
pie are manilesting their sympathy for
that old bloody william, Brown, in all
such ways as are most disgracelul to
themselves, blasphemous to heaven
and insulting to humanity. These
sympatizing thieves are so stepped in
inlamy as to glory in their shame, and
walIow in their own til;h. They pre-
end that the rcmorseless wretch-ihe
thief. robber and midnight murderer
told Brown. whom allhoncst men must
loathe and detest wherever law is
observed or justice is respected, is
greater than Washington--some Of
these abominablc h%ypocrites 60 so far
in their bIasphcmics as to call old
Brown the Jesus Christ of the nine
teenlh ccniury"--cven that he is
greater than the "dead Christ These
and the like horrible bl~asphemies arc
being uttered all over the North.
1t only remains to see what the
Northern people will do in the pending
crisis. Ii they will put dow these
insurrcctionary organixations-they
will hang the traitors among them
if they will give some Of those Rev.
"colorrd" nero preachers thirty nine
lashes well laid on their bare backs
ifthey will do, what all honorable peo.
pie ought to do to suppress and put
down these miserable w%retches, then
the Southern people may begin to have
some confidence in the North. But if
these campaigning meetings are per.
mitted to pass.beiore them without
rebuke, then we may justly regard all
the Northern people as our enemles.--

HILTON r. Heller OR HELPER

The Abolitionist endorsing this no,
torious villain endorses a scounlrcl
who, for this roguery. ought to be in a
%pcnitentiary. The Raleigh On. c.
Standard, in speaking Of him, says:
"This man, Hinton r. Heller, as we
have said, is a native of this State. He
is a thief aud a scoundrel. While en-.
ploycd some years since in Salisbury as
a clerk, he robbed his employer. The
fact was proved on him, and we believe
he himself admitted it, and offered some
lame excuse for his'picking and stealing
He was exposed some two years ago in
Congress, by one Of our Senators, Mr..
Briggs, whose statements where he is
known are implicitly relied on. That
exposure is a part Of the Congressional
records, and may be examined by Hel(or's
Abolition friends. We cannot just now
lay our hands upon it, but we will repro.
duce it in some future number, TO show
how and by what high authority this
miserable traitor has been exposed and
branded. Bat mean as lie is, he is a very
good Aboli,ionIst. Heller stole money,
and Greeley and Thurlow Weed would
steal and run off slaves from their mas.
tcrs. Heller turns upon the spot that
gave him birth, and seeks to destroy It's
material and social prosperity; Gov.
Morgan aids him in his work, and hugs
the traitor to his bosom. Nay more
the Governor OF a sovereign State, whose
chief city has beeu bnilt up by Southern
trade and slave labor, has subscribed
money to aid in lighting up the flame Of
civil and scrvil war in fifteen States OF the
confedcracy! Is this the message Of IF.
lection which New York sends greeting to
North Carolina? Is this a common

LOVE AS A

A coqls c has been described as a piece
Of finder, which lays itself out TO catch
sparks; but does not always succeed in
lighting a match. There is something Of
point in this little metaphor, but lot
much; for, when a coquete has secured her
match, she finds her power to sustain it
in ignition exhausted, and this is the Sc
cret OF the common domestic unhappi.

contains, in general enough Of the COM
bus,ible TO last it for n reasonable life.
time, under judicious treatment, but the
coquctto completely destroys that COM
bustibilily, if she practice longer her vi
cious game, by killing and cxtnguishing
her affections until their vitality is gone,
and they are soddcn past all restoration.
Love is intoxicating, like any other ar.
dent spirit; and the coquettc is simply an
habi,uaI tippIcr. To her the excitement
ofa continual glass becomes indispensable
to existence; but, her taste destroyed, hc'
appetite viliatcd, her digestion lost, her
system bloated in the process, how little,
alas! is she fitted to appreciate the useless,
though exquisite slimulant of welded
bliss, when she has clutchcd at it as the
only hope Of rescue from her apparent
destiny.

A correspondent writes a long letter

l
A correspondent writes a long letter
for tho Home Journal, in which he
talks about the coming Christmas, and
presumes to deliver a lecture to the
young folks about their manner OF ac'
ton at parties, &c. He says, ironl'
cally, that the young folks ought to
throw nuts and knick.knacks across
the room at one another, because 1t
leaves such a beautiful impress on the
carpet in the morning. lie is opposed
to staying till three o'clock in the
morning, and recommends the con-
gregation of the party sooner IN the
evening, This is sensible talk, and
we coincide with him, lie wants to
see Coalitions danced more than they
are, and Reels dispensed with, and
asks US "what is more beautiful than
a nice waltz, or sshottiSch?' We ans"
wcr by saying that the two last named
amusements arc pretty enough, but
for a gentleman and lady to drag them
beyond the private ismily circle is to
make public a species Of familiarity
anything else than commcndable'
and lift is innocent, let the young man
after he seats his fair partner place
his arm around her and see the result
see the colored cheeks and culver
ing l~ips--for custom must be obcyed'
and TO affect is a game often played
only because casiom saith such and
such is not right. But we all have our
peculiar ideas OF etiquette. We be-
Iicvc that for a lady and gentleman TO
make themselves conspicuous in a
shottisch, while n crowd is waiting to
dance a co,illion or reel, is a gross de-
parturc from common sense etiquette,
for surely the by ISLANDERS would pre-
fer to dance than to witness the two
in question. 1t might be admissible
for n small portion Of the time to be
used up by ladics in waltzing, &c
but by "a gentleman and hdy- never
1t is "a familiarity no Judy shouM per-
nit. But custom saith not so, and
poor us, we are in the minority.
As to the rc!o'mations our cores
pondcnt would bring about, we guess
the publication of his article would
not do it. nor should he care. Socic'
ty has its ways while We have our
thoughts, and if society does not see
fit to alter its ways to agree with our
thoughts, why let society rip. That's
our motto about things Of a trilling
nature. We can have our opinions
and society a have her ways-wo'
men may place themselves in the EN-
braces of young men in public, and il
tAev are willing, all right with us, on
ly, vc say it is in consistent with our
IDEAS of purity in the female charac.
