Of course he will not charge the .Republicans J with "having purchased i ir own men. - -lie talks a "good deal about a "vortex," but what he mean by it, unless he ha reference to the hclc into which be 'dumped' himself last fall, is more than we can say tf(:tr 1 ' Jle ssy "we sliall see what we shall see,' Which is truly a Belf-evident proposition, and then winds up his short epistle with a terrible flourish of trumpets in regard to the immutability of the Democratic party, says lie ia a better .

1853. Messb. Exit. ns:In iniuch si I bare at troubled jou with, a eomcnur.iei.tion i since the Legislature convened, il cony ' not be amis to give yon a short state met? I of the proceeding of this body. There has been a great many -import-' at bill introduced in both branches I more than csn possibly be considered at this special or called session, hence the im-j propriety of catting out so much "work. If! the Legislature adjourns over with the! prisent organizat-cn, and when it meets gain resume it labor where it left off, j and proceed with the business as though there bad been no adjournment, the Slate would incur much less expense than she! must necessarily incur if a re-organ izalion is had. New committees would have to be appointed and elected, and much time would be consumed be fere business could be transacted with any facility . Therefore I think the best policy would be to continue the present organization for the General Session. ' ; The Appraisement bill ha not yet become a law, but I think it will in a few I The revenue question has created some excitement. A large number of the old liner and a few Republicans' are in favor of taxation, as recommended by the Governor, but so far as . my knowledge extends a large majority of the Republican members are opposed to levying a tax for1 1858, and are in favor of borrowing the money to. supply the deficit and to carry on the State Government. .The House has already passed a bill to this effect, which is now awaiting the action' of the Senate to consummate what it proposes. - When the question was before the Senate as to how and in what manner the Revenue should be raised, I made a few remarks on the. question, and I see a statement in the Republican perporting to be what I eaid at that time, which is in part incorrect. What I aid was this "That I was in favor of the resolution first, because the tax would be very unequal on the different counties in the State that Rush county lands were appraised higher than those of any other county in the State that there were a number of counties where the lands were appraised very low under the appraisement of 1851; and that I did not think it right and just to collect a Revenue Under that appraisement that myconatituenls weie not very able to pay an additional tax and their debt?, for ' Rush county would not 3 ield more than one third of a '--crop of corn and hogs, and that it was known throughout the State that Rush was thn greatest hog raising county in the State. Under these circumstances, then, I was in favor of the resolution." . ' The Senatorial bill came to a final passage to day. The vote stood on its passage, yeas 27, nays 22. - The Senators will be elected as coon as practicable and sent on lo Washington to contest the scats of the great "bogi." ... A resolution wa introduced on last Monday lo adjourn slle die on the 22nd inst., but was reconsidered and recinded yesterday. - , ' The Svnate committee on the State Prison visited the Prison 00 last Friday, for the purpose of ascertaining, if possible, whether the . Prison needed enlargement, and to look into the condition of the prisoners. I am dtciJedly opposed to enlarging or building a new Prison a recommended by the Governor. There are some 5C0 convicts in the Prison at present, a majority of whom are boys under twenty-one years of age. - After arj examination of the ' Prison, and finding -so many boys there of from 15 to 20 years of age, I could but feel a sympathy for them, associated as they are with old men steeped in crime of the v orst character. They cannot but receive bad impressions and teaching from these despeiate character?. I am in favor of building a house of Refuge for general offenders, and ol taking about one hundred of those boys from the Prison and confining them in it. Tho Constitution provides that the Legislature may prepire houses of Refuge, and I think it would be the belter policy to erect such a bouse than to enlarge the old Prison. The old liners are greitly rejoi ing over the confirmation of Hugh Miller, which was consumated yesterday. The committee on elections at the session of ICS" reported that Mr. Shryock was the legally elected Senator, yet in the face of this report Miller was confirmed by the casting vote of the President of the Senate.

The "Fayetteville Literary institute,'' meets regularly -every- Friday- night, but the public is only admitted once every month. These public meetings are very entertaining and , interesting to me. The exercises generally consist of origins! orations, essays, and debate on some appropriate question.' 1 believe, the Uev. Andrew Heron, D. D., presides over the so. ciety at this time.

Editors He'uhlictnv, , You will discover I write from a radiating center of literary emanations; but whether these emanations will retain their original splendor or not after being reflected through me as a medium, is a doubtful question. 1 hist night had the pleasure of attending the Pl.iloniathean Society, which is made up ot the .students, and patrons ot this fchool. I found Elder B. F. Reeve Jo the Chair, who is the ' regular presiding officer. Several fine essays were read; and several declamations were delivered, which would - be an ornament to any society. But the main feature of the evening was the debate. . Question: "Has the Indian a better right to complain of the treatment received from those nations called eivdie.il than the Negro?" ; On tLe bfliimative the barbaratieo practiced by the whiles in the Indian wars, tbe. destruction -- of tbe Indian' hunting ground, and the annihilation of the race were painted in living colors. . , f Cn the' negative was shown a picture the most revolting thst eye ever beheld. The poor, down-trodden African, lorn with violent bands, from his native country, from his" father and his mother, and sister and brother, from nil that was near and dear lo him in life, from the pleasant shades of the tree ol liberty; and sold into lliyhting, withering, vnrtlentiug slavery! To wear chains, and to bequeath chains from generation to generation! without any glimmer of Lope for the future,- or any bright spot to look bick upon, were the miin features of the picture. ' The deoate was interspersed with some witty allusions, one of which is worthy of notice. One gent!emn on the afSrmlive had advanced the idea that the Negro was fit for nothing but a slave, be should be civilized or enlightened. Hi opponent, in replying, saM "I don't profets lo be much of a Scriptoreao, but I think I have somewhere read a command "to the apostles, to "Go'ISTO ali tux' "world aid PREACH THE GU5FEL TO EVJr'RT I'REATCRE." "Now if this doesn't include the Negro, I don't see what -right the ArosTi-s Pacl, or Jescs Christ, or God Almigrtt Him", sf.lf or any body else , bad to place u there!" ' , .; Ti e debate was conducted with Veriera I good feeling.

' 07" The President's lamentation over the use of money to influence elections is received with joy among the Clerk at Washington, who have been severely taxed for electioneering purposes. A Washington letter says ol the President's Pittsburgh letter: His letter has produced a most agreeable sensation among the employees of the Government, who Lave been "habitually taxed to ('0 what the President so much deprecate, and as is understood here, by his special direction. They' have all filed away a copy of this letter, so that when another assessment shall be ordered, such as was recently levied to promote the success of Mr, Glancy Jones, the rebuke will be produced as a justification for refuIIobr:ble Accident. On Saturday, the 1 3. h inst., while the steamer Morgan L. Martin was lying at the dock, in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, a son of the owner of a steamer, a boy some six 01 seven years old, nS playing about the engine, and finally droppea somcining oetween tne- Deams sup porting the sliait, and stooped over lo recover it. The engineer, entirely ignorant of the whereabouts of the boy, started the engine, and the crank . revolving came down and.'fctruck the boy on the back of ihe neck, completely revering the head from the body, without giving a momcul'd lime for cry or help. TI,? father being near, " started, caught up the headless body, and the cry-of -"Oh, God 1"-- which - escaped the father's lips, chilled the heart's blood of every one that saw that awful sight and heard that heait rending, invocation. The father atarted immediately for Deperc. with the remains, where be resides. ' ' X-iT" The spiritual intercourse is certainly enlarging. A spirit, not long since, waited on Judge Edmonds and. wanted to take a drink through . him as an eailhly medium. The Pawtucket Gazelle relaus the following pleasant incident of spiritual communication which quite . exceeds the Judge's story; . - i "An enthusiastic believer was relating; to a skeptic the spiritual performances to which he could testify, and among other things said that on a certain occasion the spirit his wife, who had been dead several years, relumed to him, and seating herself upon bis knee, put her arm aiound him, and kissed him as much to his gratification as she, used to when living.2 'You do not mean to say, remarked the ikeptic 'that the spirit of your wife really embraced and kissed you?' ?No, not exactly ihat.' replied the believer,' 'but her ' spirit took possession of the body of a female roedi um, aud through her embraced and kissed me.' We 'presume thai believers are eften .ns willingly deceived as this roan wa. Death from Fright- Mrs. Mary S.
