Salt! Salt!!

We were highly gratifed with the information
obtained last week from conversation with DR.
Worth, State Salt Commissioner, in regard to the
prospect of supplying the State with salt
Dr., Worth is now manufacturing for the State on
an average 200 bushels of salt per day, instead of
per week. as incorrectly stated by US week or two
oro This salt is divided among the Counties and
sold to the Commissioners Of each County at So 90
NOR bushe which is about the cost of it, Besides
this, private manufactures are producing in the
same region about 500 bushels per day, which they
sci! at from 6 to 81 so per bushel.
In a few weeks, if no untoward event occurs, the
factories in that section will be producing about
800 bushels per day, which added to the amount
which may be procured from the Virginia Salt
Works, will be amply sufficient to meet the wants
of the people of North Carolina This will be graft

Atrocious Personal Attack on Col. Vance.

AtroclOus PERSONAL Attack on Col. vance,
We make the following extract from the State
Journal one of the special organs of Gov. Clark;
ut. might be too invidious to run the contrast,
for comparison is out of the question, between Col
onel Vance and Col Johnston into personal appear
ances and we will touch these only slightly and,
with due regard to Col. VS. opinion Of himself As
they are both married men it cannot affect either
very seriously with our female patriots. COL Vance
is decidedly ugly. Col. Johnston, if not handsome,
quite comely. Col. Vance's eyes have somewha:
the appearance of two twentypenny nails driven in
to the centre of three pound turnip which has
been covered with wig, in comparison with whose
dull, somnolent expression, Col Johnston's are as
two sparkling diamonds inserted in a globe of pure
gold and adjoining counenance radiant with smiles
Col. Nanccs gait is that of superannuated animal
OF the bovine Species azily ambng to the pasture
Col JohnStons that of an Arabian charger saddled
for the chase, when he hears the horn of the hunts
man. Col Vance buys fine clothes, made up by the
most fashionable taorS, but owing to the rotundity
OF his person, and the irregularity of its surface
they never " fit" Hence he is always at war with
himself or with his tailor, and even in his finest
mondays, ms external appearance is that of Dutch
lariner COL Johnston buys good substantial cloth
es, knows how to preserve and how to put them on,
has always good fit" and his whole appearance is
that OF neat tidy, methodlcal American gentle
man and man of business. Col. Vances foot-and
what foot! is like his head out of all shape and
Vi PiOHlSous ululcuSlonS, between no part OF which
and the ground, bug could find shelter from a
storm or refuge from enemy, and is in times like
these hard to protect from stumps in summer and
frosts in winter. Col. Johnston has quite respcc-
table foot but it is that of fairys in size and sym
metry compared with Col. Vance's. Personally, ma
ture meyer intended Col Vance for Governor; and
the people will not violate the laws of nature by
making him one"
A more vulgar more disgraceful--a more in
Oft
asoldier. Comment is unnecessary. Every respec-
table and decent person will loathe the authors of
such an attack on gallant soldier. 1t would be
dsgraceful, if applied to gentleman in civil life;
but what shall say of the vile creatures who thus
speak-not politically, but personally-of a man
who for more than twelve months has been fighting
the battles of his country? Show the above extract
to your neighbors.
