to the Administration on the veto. The as
sertion is probably true, and strikingly yex'
hibits the fearful storm of fanaticism against
which, the friends of the Constitution have '.
to contend. The President appeals not to
parties, states or sections for support, bnt
throws himself upon the good sense and
justice of the people of the entire country.
Recovering from the temporary confusion

Congress and the country, have rallied with
tgreater energy than before, to the contest
Never before has the strength or influence
of party been more manifest than now

RAIL ROAD MEETING.

A meeting of the Stockholders of the
Kings Mountain Railroad Company, was
held in Yorkville, on Thursday last. COL
R G. McCAw was called to the chair
Upon call of the Stockholders, it was
found that one thousand and sixty. three
shares-a majority of the stock-was rep
resented.
Gen. LAW, the President of the Com.
pany, explained the object of the meeting
to be for the purpose of making arrange
ments for completing the road to Yorkville,
and putting it in running order. At the
conclusion of his remarks, he offered the fol-
lowing resolution:
ReSolued, That the President and Board
of Directors be authorized to issue tpeaty-
fOe Monsand dollars of seven per cent
coupon bonds, of the denomination of FIVE
hundred dollars, interest payable semi,an-
az luC IllSI ~NdtlObai oouh, III
Charleston, S. c., where the principal will
also be paid ON the 1st of January 1s7l-
FIVE years from January last-the principal
and interest to be secured by a mortgage of
the road, all its equipments and Depot
buildings; and that the same be legally
conveyed to parties, in trust, for that pur-
pose, and that the President and Board of
Directors be empowered to sell, hypothe-
cate, or in any other way dispose of the
Bonds for cash, and apply the proceeds to
the immediate re. construction of the Road ;
and that from the date of the Bonds, viz :
January lst, 1866, no dividend on stock, or
any claim upon the Road, shall be paid
except salaries of officers, employees, and
the necessary expenses of construction; but
all the nett earnings of the Road be invest
ed by the President and Board of Direct
ors, in such manner as will form sinking
fund for the payment of the issue of Bonds;
that the real estate belonging to the Com

pany, except Dopots, and buildings used as
store houses, be sold, when it can; be done
on favorable terms, for cash, or. on time,
with good security; and the proceeds ap'
piled to the sinking fund. As soon, how.
ever, as the amount, principal and interest,
shall have accumulated sufficient for the full
payment of Che Bonds, then the President
and Board of Directors may appropriate the
nett earnings of the Road. as if no mort
gage existed.
The resolution was adopted with but ter
dissenting votes.
We have been informed by Gen. Law
that he has effected arrangements, where
by the amount provided for in the resolu
tion can be obtained so soon as the bond
are completed and ready for delivery, which
will be in short time.
The Annual meeting Of the Stockholder
will be held on the second Monday in Jul.
next.

EMIGRATION TO MEXICO,

We print in our issue of tbis'week, by
request, two interesting papers relative tc
the advantages of Mexico, as a country fol-
emigrants. Each of these papers come from
highly reliable and competent sources, and
so far as they 60, doubtless present truthful
impressions of the country.
We suggest, however, that these papers
do not 60 far enough. They are silent upon
the social and moral condition of the coun-
try, and its politics. Its future is purely
speculative, and the chances against its
success in the establishment of peace and
the promotion of public welfare. Mex
leo has for early two hundred years been
but another name for revolution. Opposing
clans have swept back and forth over her
territory so often, and revolution, anarchy,
and all the disorders incident to her high
democracy have followed so rapidly in the
wake of each other, that history, or its
present condition alike, fail to afford an en-
couraging view of its future. The disor-

THE FENIANS,

This great movement of the Irish people
for the disenthraAment of Erin from the
British yoke, is rapidly rising to the dignity
of real war. The Fenians have abandon
ed their absurd chickering's about the presi
dency of the coming Republic, and from
the amount of noise they are making, and
the scare created in Canada; we imagine
they are in earnest. While the movement
was conducted for time in such way as
to make its authors appear in most ridicu
lous attitude, their more recent efforts must
colvince the country that they are in ear.
nest.
AS consequence of the movement, Can.
ada is in a state of uproar. Volunteers
guard the frontier Oh every side, and armed
patrols walk the streets of her larger towns
day and night If the Fenians are in ear.
nest for an attack, the Canadians appear to
be not less determined to defend the Prov.
ince against invasion.
A rather ugly feature in the affair is, the
disloyalty of a considerable portion of the
British regular army. Recruited to- a
great extent from the able bodied idle young
men of Ireland, much of its material has
been recently discovered to be unreliable,
and this fact is causing the most serious ap'
prehension to the British authorities. The
uncertain extent of this disaffection, and
the disastrous consequences that may ensue
if bostilities should commence, render the
facts important
The British Minister at Washington has
placed this matter before our Government,
and Cabinet meeting was held last week
it is stated, to determine upon the policy to
be adopted. No measures it is thought have
yet been decided upon towards checking
the conspiracy in this country. Uncle Sam
remembering that pitiful "aid and comfort"
extended By England to his own rebels,
seems disposed to ignore her remoustrances
now against the Fenians.

ders in the body polite there are radical.
No Government, however we'll adapted
or wisely administered, can for long time
aggregate these antagonisms, or control such
q diversity Of principles as Mexico presents
We have but little hope that MACMILLAN,
or any one else, will ever, be able to estab-
lish the supremacy of the law upon firm
basis there The strong arm of some for
eign power may be able, at some future day,
to effect what the Mexican people never
can-a we'll established Government.
We know enough of the morals of the
Mexicans to shrink from such q contact
with them, as would be imposed BY sitting
down there for. life. Bull fights, and
the card-table are not the prime vices
of female society. The men are indolent,
degraded, and proverbially dishonest. The
history of the country is but continuous
record of crime and immortality from the
day that CoRTEz planted the standard Of
Spain there, to the present hour
We would suggest to those persons who
have decided to emigrate, the propriety o.
selecting homes in land where revolution
discord, and internecine strife are less com
mon than in Mexico Its soil is no doub
productive, its climate salubrious, and the
prospects of wealth encouraging; but it'
moral and political stability are too ques
tionable to ever make it a desirable resor
for any but adventures.

MARCH IL, 1855. The President does
not receive the blows of the Radicals and
Senators without returning them as'welb as
he can: BE had not the theatre Of Mr..
Stevens, or be would havemade some points
that weuld have pleased the galleries, which,
by the way, have become quite couserva-
tive. The President follows the example
of General jackson. in bis department TO-
wards his political enemies he sssails them
in public when be has the chance, aud loses
no opportppity,,iu conversations, to carry
the war into the enemy'S territory. gHe has
spoken to many who have approached him,
since Mr. Stsvens's speech, in very strong
language in regard to that member ,aud
some others. -.. ,-. ....a.,.
=. But the President has not yet adopted
the jackson policy of 'srewardiug bis friends
and furnishing bis enemies" by general
system of prescription. The Republican
Senators have expected that the most Of
removals from Office would begin at once
with the heads of Departments, and 60
down to subordinates. They have been s1-
pecting to have the pleasure of exhibiting
their power over appointments. But Presi-
dent johnson has just informed Senator
One of bis chief supporters he will
not make any removals at present. -..-.
Some high and some low Government
employees have left the CITY on leave to
vote ia New Hampshire at the election in
that State to morrow. They go, as is said,
without any restriction, as to their political
objects. They may vote as they please and
will please to vote the Radical ticket. The
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Is a.
mong them. johnson is not disposed to
commence Jackson order of political pre-.
scription. But his friends understand that
be may be forced into it. He has said that
be does not rely upon that. resource for
means to effect a change of the political
views of the people. He feels confident
that they will come right and will give q
hearty support to his policy Of ooucilliatiou
and restoration before the end of the pres
ent Congress. sa. B.. ..4.a.
The New Hampshire election is too ear
ly for seasoaable test. The people hardly
begin yet to appreciate the ruinous conse-
quepces of Radical rale. At the ConserVa-
tive election in April, it is thought that
the popular, "sober. second thought" will
prevail. LEO.
