THE WILMINGTON JOURNAL.
DuDlIn County,


The associate Editor of the Journal has just returned
from Kenansvie which place he visited on business con
nected with this Office this being the week of Duplir
County Court.
He found the appearance OF the town very much i'm
proved by the removal of old house which stood in the
Court House square.
On Monday, the attendance on Court was not large
although the day was very fine. On Tuesday the wealth
er was comparatively cod and it threatened to snow in
the forenoon but turned in the afternoon, and
the attendance was large.
The Democrats held meeting in the Court House
on Tuesday afternoon for the purpose of appointing del
egates to the State and district conventions. Strong
Southern resolutions were passed The proceedings will
appear in day or twoi
The crops of last year appear to have been generally
GOOD. More bacon was made than usual Money ap-
pears to be easy and to circulate quite freely among our
Duplin friends.
There is considerable anxiety manifested IN regard to
the present position of national affairs, and strong
faeno eyinced in favour of non-intercourse with the
North By the way we understand that new Volun-
teer Rifle Company has just been organized at Kenans
Vile, and already numbers thirty members Col. John
J. Whitehead, Captain. The uniform is the same as
that of the Wilmington Light Infantry, very hand
some one certainly, but we would venture to suggest
that uniform made out of North Carolina Cashmere
would be the thing in these noninercourse times. 1t
would look very well too.

From the Washington States and Union

A MERTED CONVENIENTLY following merited
compliment to the Hon. Warren Winslow, we find in
the Washington correspondence of the Ohio Statesman.
As we took occasion to state few days ago. no MEM
Der has been interchangeable III his exertions effect
organization of the House adversely to the A Doll
tiOnists than himself:
" The best manager on the Democratic side of the
House in all these complications, is Governor Warren
Winsow, of \ orth Carolina. He has been here two
terms; is accomplished scholar and pariamenaran ;
an old legislator in his State and has a tact
which, while it will not make personal enemies OF
political opponents control his friends and bring
about results. Ii any could have ploted our party
into successful issue the Speaker, that man is Gov
Winsow. His efforts have been unceasing bis suavty
undimnished his position the head OF the Demo
cratic committee has been to It's full extent but
yet all is of no avail.

Union Meetings.

= We have read good deal about Union meetings at
the North and we have also read datrbes in Northern
Dapers because similar meetings were not held at the
South The inference drawn by these Northern papers
was that the North altogether selfsacrhcng and
the South was altogether selfish
How far do the history of the country and the actual
facts of the case bear out these assumptions With
an almost immateral exception the whole territory coded
by the States to the General Government for the pur-
pose of strengthening the Union given by Virginia
and North Carolina. Why should Virginia and North
Carolina give fresh pledges of theh nationality? One
gave the Northwest as free gift to the COnederacy,
another gave Tennessee Beyond this, we have stood
beside the tomb of Washington in Virginia. and beside
the birthplace of Jackson in North Carolina the latter
being but Sabbath days journey from the place where
independence was first declared in Mecklenburg.
The South has given everything for the Union and
she calls back of her gifts. Why should she hold
Union Meetings? She has done nothing to weaken the
Union. She has attacked the rights of nobody. She
has asked for nothing than equality in Union for
the formation of which she sacrificed than the
whole North is worth Tennessee and all the North
Western States are the gifts of Virginia and North
Carolina to the Union Are these not pledges enough?
We think they All that North Carolina asks is
equality She claims no supremacy. She cannot get
more from the Union than she gave She can hardly
get as much.

Southern Inventions.

On Saturday last Mr.. Napthai Ezekiel, of Richmond

THE PREsAGF Newspapers are sPrlngng up we
have paper and very fair looking country paper too
from Hendersonvile, the County seat of Henderson
County, N. O. Its name is the Presage, but what it
presages we hardly know However it is wing in poll
tics is published weekly by Joel L. Clayton, at 81 80
in advance AS before remarked, it halls from the vii
age of Hendersonville and Hendersonvie lies twenty
one miles south of Asheville; the village was COM
menced about twenty years ago. the County of which
it is the seat of justice having been cut off from Bun
combe in 1887. The location healthy and the scenery
delightful The water is cool and the whiskey refreshing
There are ten stores two hotels military institute,
academy four churches four blacksmith shops, two
carriage shops, one cabinet shop tailor, boot
and shoe maker, livery stable, watch maker and
jeweller baker, four lawyers two DOCTORS and two
newspapers, to wit: The Baptist Telescope and the
Presage. Many of the houses of brick some of
polished native rock and "eegantly constitu
ted of wood
All of which we learn from the Presoge.
The HIGH FoINr REPoRrER-We have the first
number of the above paper of which James Fl. Moore
is Editor and Proprietor 1t is of fair size and appear
although not equal to the desire of the editor who
designs charging and improving it. The tone of the
paper is unexceptonable and We trust it may survive
and become successful and useful.
High Point is wholly the result of the N. G. Rail
road the East side of which the village is built at
the point where it the Fayetteville and Western
Plank Road. 1t is great point for the shipment of
produce from the upper Yadkin country, and for the
forwarding of goods to that country Out of this has
grown up trade, and upon this trade the village has
been built. 1t has now good stores several branches
of mechanical business educational Institutions etc.
AS its indicates it is high point being the high
est point upon the whole line of the NJ G. Railroad
and from its location it is free from local disease
Trinity College, formerly Normal College, is not far
distant, and the High Point Female High School is at
the village and said to be very excellent School
Whether it will sustain paper remains to be If
it can it ought to, nothing else do so much to
bring the rising town into notice abroad.

Teach the Woman to Save.

There's the secret A saving woman at the head of
family is the very best savings bank yet established
one that receives deposits daily and hourly with cost
" machinery to manage it. The idea of saving is
pleasant one, and if the women would mbibe it at
once they would cultivate and adhere to it, and thus
may when they were not aware of it would be laying
the foundation for competence security in stormy
time, and shelter in rainy day The woman who sees
to her own house has large field to save in, and the
best way to make her comprehend it is for her to keep
an account of current expenses Probably not wife
in ten has an idea how much are the expenditures of
herself family. Where from one or two thousand dol
lars expended annually there is chance to save
something, if the attempt is only made Let the house
wife take the idea-act upon it-and strive over it
and she will save many dollars perhaps hundre7s-
where before she thought it impossible. This is duty
not prompting of avarice-a moral legation that
rests upon the woman as well the but it is
duty, sorry to say, that is cultivated very lit
te among those who preach the most, and regard
themselves examples in most matters 81 Teach the
women to save is good enough maxim to be insert
ed in the next edition of Poor Richards Almanac"

I,he City of JeddO.

An American officer on the steamship Powhattan
writing to the Boston Courier from Jeddo Japan, I'M
der date of the 9Th Oct, 1859, gives interesting
count of that remarkable city, which, according to his
statement exceeds in and population any city now
in existence or that has existed 1t stretches some 20
miles along the beach of the bay or gulf of Jeddo and
extends inward some twelve and half miles. The
population is estimated by Mr.. Harris, our Minister
there at three millions The correspondent of the
Courier thinks that it is underestimate, and that in
fact it is nearly twice as pOpuOus.
