183C. ly. Roanoke is Pearl, and such was its renown in Indian tradition, that tho main river which fed the Occam, or Albemarle Sound, by degrees received the compliment of its name. All the glorious associations of the word however belong exclusively to tho island. It was there where the good Indian woman, the wife of (Jrangnna-nieo, entertained the fust voyagers of Sir Walter.

In its waters the generous Manteo was baptized a christian aed it was on its soil where he was invested by the command of Raleigh, with the title of nobility, and created Lord of Roanoke. Il was in tho deep recesses of its vine-clad groves that the first Anulo-Amcsiican saw the light of heaven. There the foundation of the ancient citie Raleigh" was laid; and it was there where an English people lived, suffered and died. Mr. I'andolpli had caught some vague idea of the fame of tho word in Indian tradition, and ig-norantly supposing that tho small st-eam at his feet, or at least that pmtion of the main river which lies in the state of Virginia, might be the heir to all its g'orious associations, he did not scruple to adopt it as a part of his own name leaving the world to i fe that there was some probable connection between his ancestry and the Pearl-island of the Savage Lord Roanoke.

Besides, loo, he claimed be descended from an Indian Princess and in his crazy ambition for the empty sound of a title, he embraced the opportunity to complete his aboriginal pedigree, by purloining from the peerage list of North Carolina, the almost forgotten nobility of one of her native sivages. But what does the coi respondent of the Evening Star mean by asserting that the river Roanoke is in the state of Virginia, and that it sweeps over a much wider extent of that state than it docs of North Carolina Has he ever so much as looked at a map of North Carolina Has lr ever studied one of the state ot Virginia or, was he ever at school al all A ne illiterate scribbler" than he is can no where be fo and I doubt very much whether even Professor Tucker hi nself in his forthcoming Memoirs of Jefferson, will be able to xhibit any thing more striking in the way of blnndurin arrogance and ignorance. The river Roanoke in the state of Vi'ginia I wonder the gentle-! man did not claim the Mississippi because ihe Ken i wh i happened to bi in Virginia. The truth is (and if the reader will refer to the map of Virginia will fiiid is so) the Roanoke, as il stalls from the junction of the Dan and Stanton, does not continue in tho state of Virginia for more than forty miles, and then, entering Corolina, in the county of Wnrren, it sweeps over a fertile section of that State of more than one hundred und fif; miles In extent. So much for ihe geographical knowledge of A Virginnn." Let us now try him upon another point of the local history of his own state.

The truth is. North Carolina is full of feeling for the memory of Sir Waller and it would be impossible for the most inatter.tivc traveller to put his foot upon tbe shores of that State, without hearing from the first islander he might encounter the fart that tho country aiound him was sacred to the services of Raleigh.

It did so. This gave me great confidence in it, and as I saw (hat you had recommended it in cases of debility, general weakness, ai.d inactivity of the digestive organs, 1 induced my wife, who had been laboring under these symptoms for a year or more, to try it.

If that noble stream had ever achieved such a triumph over the laws of nature, "A Virginia" would have been at least in tho neighborhood of truth in asserting "that it sweeps over a much wider extent of Virginia than of North Carolina." Mr. Randolph's plantation, then, was not upon this stream, and remembering his ridiculous sqneamishness as lo the title of Woanoke, the world may well exclaim, where ihen was it It was on a creek which courses through the county of Charlotte, emptying its waters into the Stanton, and which said creek has been dignified wiih the name of "Little Roanoko River."
