University OF Virginia.

We had occasion to refer to this veneer
able Institution few weeks since, upon the
reception of the annual catalogue, Since
that time we have had the opportunity of
conversing with young gentleman, who is
a student at the University, who confirms
all, and more than all we then said of its
merits and course of instruction. Its Fac
ulty will be found to consist of some of the
foremost scholars of the South Among
them we recognize the name of our quon-
dam soldier friend, Col. CHARLES S. VEN
ABLE, whose superior scientific attainments
proved of inealculabIe advantage to General
LEE, upon whose staff he served.
We understand that the next session will
open with q very decided increase of the
large number of students in attendance
during the last. The two important Pro-
fessorships, recently created, have not yet
been 1lled.

CITY Posi- OFFICE DEPARTsrENT.-our citizens
were surprised on Tuesday to learn oF the 70
moval Of MIR. j. d. Poisson and the aupointnent
OF q Mr.. Brink, Postmaster in his stead. We
do not know Mr.. Brink, but believe he has been
here but short time in the employ of Colonel
Foster, late Collector of this Port There has
been no satisfaction expressed or complaint
made of Mr.. Poisson so far as we have heard
and he is regarded as a most efficient and comno,
tent Postmaster, as he is most worthy gentle
man, and has given great satisfaction to citizens
of all classes. He has been in the DISCHARGE 90
the duties of the Office, acceptably to The notiro
and Northern residents of our city, who RECON-
mended him, since shortly after the close Of tho
war, and his removal and the appointment of a
stranger comes hard upon the heels of the ru-
NOR that such an attempt was on foot.
Mr.. Poisson is gentleman of advanced vosrs
and has an invalid family dependent unon his
labors.

Terrible Catastrophe the Waccama.v-
Seven Lives Lost

The steamer r. e. Bell, Captain w. I.
GARRISON, while towing the schooner Rho
della Blue up the Waccamaw, on Friday,
the 9Th instant, was suddenly struck by a
hurricane and capsized. SO sudden and
unexpected was the accident, that, al
though the steamer was along side of the
schooner she was towing, out of sixteen
souls on board, but nine were saved: The
Georgetown Times says:
The loss of property, although serious to the
owners Of the boat, is not to be considered, when
reflect upon the terrible loss of life accompany
ing it.
Captain Garrisons loss is deeply regretted by
the community. He G native CT Rocking ham
County, Virginia, and about twenty-five years of
age, with great energy; he was thoroughly reliable
in all his dealings, and devoted to the interest of
his employer These qualifications, added to
department uniform and respectful to all. won for
him the good wishes of people, and made for
him many friends, notwithstanding he had been
among lis but few months. We understand he
leaves widow and one child, who reside in
Charleston.
Mr.. Lemuel w. Daggett whose name appears
among the untortunates, was we'll known to our
community one of our most successful mlers.
His genial snile-hearty grasp Of the hand--and
a nature eIfiowng with the milk of human kind
ness, will long be remembered by all who knew
him.
Nor can we close this notice without naming ono
whose position though obscure and humble, yet
carried with him the good opinion of his employ
ers. We allude to Prince Dunmore, assistant en-
gineer-always at his post-faithful, industrious
and polite to his superors-his death will long he
regretted.
Wo learn from the statement of Mr.. NJ.
Morris. the pilot of the Inflated steamer,
that SO sudden was the hurricane, and SO
quickly was the steamer capsized that no
human precautiou could have guarded
against the accident. The list Of the drown
ed comprised Capt. ". L. Garrison, Mr..
Prince Dupmore, Mr.. Lemuel ". Daggett,
Miss Mary Aim Mcdonald, and three color
ed men, Jack, Cosey and another, lame
unknown

The State Dehf

A correspondent of the Raleigh Standard,
writing from Petersburg, who has been
two years in Europe, inquiries of that pa
paper to know why it is that Virginia and
Tennessee are paying their coupons regu-
larly, while North Carolina pays nothing,
and desires to know what the prospect is.
To which that paper replies as follows:
"We regret we cannot satisfactorily answer our
correspondent. Our rulers in this State are faith
full followers of the principles of the Southern
Confederacy. They promise big things, but do
nothing useful or patriotic. They are taxing our
people enormously, but hear of arrange
ments to pay even the interest on the old Bonds
It seems to us that more wilful, not to
say dishonest misrepresentation of facts in
regard to the payment of interest on the
State debt, could not be conceived of than
that contained in the above lines It says,
in fact, that Governor WORTH and those
who elected him, while rich in promises,
are opposed to the payment of the interest
upon the debt, and the party which the
Standard repres ents is in favor of it, but
being powerless cannot effect anything in
the matter. eve hear of no arrange
ments to pay eUen the interest on the
Bonds If the editor of the Sand
ard is now SO jealous of the honor of North
Carolina in this regard, why did he not aid
those gentlemen who endeavored, with the
assistance of the State Treasurer, to pro-
vide means to meet this payment, instead
of attempting to bolster up the ridiculous
effort of Hon. G. ". Logan, and the ig-
norant calculations of Senator Harris, of
Rutherford, to cripple the income of the
Treasury SO that the ordinary expenses of
the State could not be met ?
The Bonds are held. as general thing,
beyond the limits of the State. and princi-
pally at the North, and the zeal of this
convert to do something to atone for his
great sins, out-runs his discretion. It is
popular at the North to talk OF paying the
interest on the old Bonds, but not quite so
much SO in the State, and the Standard,
and it's followers in the last Legislature

out reconciliation, will prove but a poor
mockery OF the government which our
Fathers founded. and without which the
country will not and cannot prosper. In
the act of joining together the different
portions of the Union the causes of ulti-
mate ruin and disintegration will be gener-
ated. A republic unsupported by the
affection CT its citizens, cannot long exist !;
government founded upon force must
usurp its place. Will this legislation,
marked by the most gigantic illegalities
and disgraceful tyrannies, be sanctioned by
the Northern people We shall see.

Nortb Carolina Railroad.


Atthe meeting of the Stockholders of this
road. WIN. A. WRIGHT, of this city, presi-
ding, we understand that there was reso-
luton adopted, instructing the Board OF
Directors to ship freight, going from the
Middle and Western part of the State
Northward, via Goldsboro' and thence to
Weldon. This is done, of course, with the
understanding that the costto shippers will
be the same. We regard this as Il move
ment in the right direction, and shows a
determination on the part of the Stock
holders to make those connections most adj
vantageous to them, while causing no de-
triment to the public.
We know that the officers in charge OF
the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad have
long endeayored to secure this change, but
for some unaccountable reason they have
heretofore failed. We say unaccountable
reason. for the offer was made to deliver
which the Raleigh and CASTOR Railroad was
doing it, thus causing it to pass over near
ly fifty miles more Of the North Carolina
Railroad, for which they would receive the
same rates per mile as upon the remainder
of their road. This was the more singular,
from the fact that the State had the con-
troll of the North Carolina Railroad and is
largely interested in the Wilmington and
Weldon Railroad both of which corpora
lions are languishing for support, while in
the Raleigh and CASTOR Railroad, which
was receiving the full benefit of this i'm
mense freight, the State was not interested
one silver, and this corporation is declar-
ing very large dividends. We felt sure
there must be ultimately change of poll,
cy in this matter-that the State would not
continue to beggar its own Railroads, SEEM
ingly to build up those owned by individ-
uals.
This arrangement must add very largely
to the receipts of both the North Carolina
and the Wilmington and Weldon Railroads.
The returning freight will also seek the
same channel as that going North. We
trust and believe this new policy will be of
great benefit to the State Treasury.
We learn that the Board of Directors
have elected Hon. JOSIAH TURNER, of Or
ange, President of the North Carolina Rail
road. Jas. Anderson, Esq, the present
incumbent, was reelected Superintendent,
and Mr., f. A. Stage again honored with
the position of Secretary. The former
Treasurer having rendered his resignation,
W. A. Caldwell, Esq, was selected for that
office. The old Directors, on the part of
the Stockholders, have been e-elected, with
the exception of G. ". Mordecai, Esq, of
Raleigh, Mr.. VIM. Murdoch having been
chosen in his stead.

! ment, he was among the sturdiest friends
and ablest adherents ct the rights OF States.
His services in the Free Trade Convention
at Philadelphia, one of the ablest bodies
ever assembled in this country, added in
tensly to his previously ardent feelings IN
these respects
It was in his private relations and life in
which the many qualities of Gen. BLoUNTs
heart shone most conspicuously. Indeed,
in his later years, he seems to have had
loathing for public life, and especially for
the methods by which popularity and pub
lie station are too often obtained. Possess
ing bitter scorn for the slams and masks
and mummeries of this world, he never
permitted an opportunity to escape OF max
ing them the victims of his singing sar-
casm. He took more pride in inaugural
ing an intelligent and successful system of
draining and cultivating the land, improT-
ing the condition of the people by an ex-
ample of industry and sobriety, and dis
pensing a generous hospitality and liberal
charity among his friends and neighbors,
than being conspicuous in the public sta
tons Of life. Much of the success of plant
ing, which has made wealthy large districts
of that section of the State, is owing to
the system he inauguraSed and which made
him the foremost planter in his county.
His disposition to shun public station
apparent wi tn the advance of age. He re
tired within the home circle and preferred
the society of his immediate family and a
few friends, who cheered the last years of
his well-spent life. His tenderness of feel
ing was the subject Of remark by those
who knew him best, for his heart was as
easily touched as a childs, while his high
toned bearing and bountiful generosity
won for him the respect and gratitude Of
all classes of people. who came within
the sphere of his influence. For The rest,
he was sincere, truthful and incorruptible.
He owed no man anything. He lived and
died gentleman. There was often sar-
casm upon his lips, but there was no cyni
cism in his heart. There are too many
living witnesses of his generosity and self
sacrificing devotion to others, to have any
doubts of the benefcencc of his DISPOSE
ton
As his influence was felt most in the
family circle, it is there his loss will fall the
heaviest. There are griefs which nothing
but Time and Power greater than the
power of man can wholly remove-griefs
too severe for words to alleviate and too
sacred to be exposed-over which it is fit
to throw the veil of silent sympathy.

A Visit TO Rocky Point-Thc Crops, t~c

visit to Rocky Point for the purpose of at
tending an Educational Meeting, report
of which will be found in another column.
AS we always make it a point to enjoy tie
present and view life on its brightest side,
whcnpossible, we generally contrive to throw
IL little pleasure into business matters, and it
50 happened that this business visit of ours
was not wholly devoid of enjoyment. AS
the guest OF that hcspitable gentleman,
Capt. r. NJ. MCINTYRE, we received every
courtesy at the hands Of himself and fami-
ly, and were afforded an opportunity to
gather such information regarding the
crops as will possibly be of interest to our
readers.
We found large quantity OF the cleared
lands in the vicinity of Rocky Point
crop, as seen from the roads, i'm
pressed us with the manifest indus
try and energy of the people. The planters
think that the damage sustained from the
recent rains will reach fully one-half, in
fact, base all their calculations upon this
estimate. But, although there are eviden-
ces of the fearful effects of the rains, on
every plantation, still we can see no cause
for utter dependency. The undestroyed por-
tions of the crop look finely, and afford
every indication of a large yield if the sea-
son proves propitious. The farmers are yet
hopeful, and their hope springs from COM
mendable determination to make the most
of their opportunities and bring into &C
tive operation every energy necessary in
performing the task before them.
With our friend, Captain MCINTYRE, we
spent the morning in visiting some of the
fair sojourners III this thickly settled dis
trict. In the presence of the ladies time
never hangs heavily on our hands, and,
enjoying the sweets of social converse,
the morning passed rapidly away. But
the call of business is imperative, and leav-
ing, as we thought, pleasure behind, we
bid adieu to the fair friends with whom the
morning had been passed SO pleasantly,
and sped on our way to where the
meeting was to be held. There we
found many of the sturdy farmers of the
neighborhood assembled, whose good iudg
ment. sound discretion, and sterling COM
mon sense, render their conversation at al
most all times agreeable and often instruc-
tive. In their company, and in noting the
proceedings of the meeting, we spent oar
time, until the snort of the iron horse at
the depot called us away to the ordinary
scene of our labors.
We acknowledge with pleasure the re-
ceipt. of an invitation from several of the
Orleans independent standard. [volume] (Irasburgh, Vt.) 1856-1871, 1867-04-19

DUTCH COws.-The editor of the
New England Farmer recently visited
the farm of Mr.. Chenery, near Boston,
where he saw some of the Dutch cattle
imported by Mr.. G. He gives the fol-
lowing account of what he saw in the
stables:
Entering the stalls we found a
man milking one of the Dutch COWS.
She had been MIXED twice before du-
ring the day, and while we stood 10y
he filled common water pail and
commenced upon another, the milk
still flowing as freely as it did into the
first pail A COW stood near that haC
dropped calf few days before
which weighed at birth 1l3 pounds
And another brought twins which
weighed at birth 153 lbs A three
or four year old heifer stood by, fol-
which Mr.. G. had been offered $1,000
and declined it. All were as splen
did specimens Of cows as we eve.
saw. Two noble bulls of the sam
breed, large and of most exact sym
metry, were also present. Thei
weight must be some 100 pound
each"

ALsIKE. OR SWEDISH CLOvER.-Le-
vi Bartlett of Warder, who has tried
the Alsike clover, which has been cul-
tivated on the experimental farm at
Washington, and with good results,
says:
Il think it far preferable forage
plant for all kinds Of farm stock thar
the several varieties of red clovers
have usually grown. For green ma
nuring L should prefer the large nor
thern or pea viue clover.
Judging from the great numbter o.
honey bees that visited my Alsike c. g
yer patch, | think it one Of the best
honey producing plants that can bt
grown.
Our common red clovers are con
sidered biennial plants, and give thei
heaviest yield the two years succeed
ing the grain crops, with which tn
seed was sown. But the Alsike be
ing a perennial |, does not attain 1t
full growth and luxuriance till the se'
ond or third We ar after it is soWn.-
1t should be so wn with timothy see'
as it is later blossoming than re
clover, and co mes in the season Il
