Mr- Thompson asked what was the matter with it McCabe asked who wrote articles of that nature Mr. Thompson replied that sometimes he wrote them. The words were hardly out of his mouth, when McCabe struck him a powerful blow in the temple, and followed him up, striking. him repeat- cdly.

xj Mr Thompson's nose was broken, and his face terribly battered. After committing the outrage, McCabe but a warrant has been procured for his arrest, lie had a number of "friends" of a well known character, waiting for him at the door, ready to assist him in case of emergency. The outrage upon an unprepared Journalist in his own office is one ot the worst kind, as it is an attempt 'to- silence by brute force the newspaper criticism of New York rowdyism It is to be hoped that some exists in New York city stronger than the machine," which will here in this city punish; but we doubt it. After this specimen of Cagger Democracy we certainly have some right to believa the News' story, that the bullies at Syracuse were certainly not all on the Wood side. And so we go.

But we are better off here in this quiet section of the world. Editorial sins in North Carolina ale generally atonejl for by threats, or, sometimes the reception of a challenge from a party who is generally not very and who is always willing that tho 4i affair should be honorably adjusted but in New York muscle has taken the place of the code, and they knock down and drag out. Mayor Swann, of Baltimore, made a. reply on Monday to the communication of the Central Committe of the Town meeting, touching the existing difficulties there. The Mayor receives the communication in a friendlyspirit and promises io exert his power to insure an orderly election, and fo appoint a special police for each Ward to maintain the peace.

He accompanies the letter with an address, to the citizens, reviews the events of the past year, and defends his administration from the charge of shielding and encouraging the disorderly element.

T. S. C. Lowe, has just been completed in New York, the cost of twenty-five thousand dollars. It is intended for a voyage to Europe in October, and will carry six passengers, besides a letter and newspaper mail A discription of it says "Over six thousand yards of the best material have been used aud seventeen sewing machines have been employed on the work, and, it is estimated, have done the work that would have required two hundred girls to peifoirm in the same -time.

-The. aeronaut does not clim to have invented any new system of ballooning; but he has been enabled by the assistant of friends, to construct a machine in which he is determined to test the practicability of a transatlantic voyage. The entire height of the balloon from the bottom of the boat io the top, is 240 feet, and its diameter 12X feet.

Dear Progress I have not much news to 6en4 you this week as times are so very dull up here, but I hope they wiH soon revive a little as the busy season comes on. Our merchants have not received their Fall supplies consequently there is scarcely anything doing in our little village. We have had for the last two weeks (j great deal of sickness in Trenton nearly every family have been afilicted with the billious fever and chills. 'I here are more pale faces to be seen now in Trenton than I ever saw here before. It seems that it has paid Its visits alike to both young and old without any; exception." A young negro child belonging to Starky Mc-Daniel crawled into the fire' and got burned to death on the 20th of this month at his plantation near this place.

i The dwelling of Mr. James R. Ilargett, six miles from Trenton; was broken into by some runaway negroes, and robed of his gun and am-unition some few days ago. They were seen by some of Mr. Hargett's negroes, whom they threatened to shoot if they ever told who they were; also the house of Mr.

'T. McDaniel some eight milea from Trenton, in the. same neighborhood, but. whether they; succeeded in getting anything or not I am not informed. It seems that their only object in breaking into Hargett's house was to get his gun, We have an old farmer living near Trenton, quite an eccentric old gentleman, in speaking of the Newbefn papers some years ago', remarked, hat he could hail a negro who had a wife six miles from -home and hear more news from him than he could glean from both of the Newbern papers.

22d, 1859. Bear Progress Fred. Cox, a farmer of this county, had a young negro woman to leave him very mysteriously on last Sunday or Monday morning. He was unable to obtain any clue to a satisfactory solution of the mystery, until within the last 24 hours facts have been revealed which leave no doubts upon the minds of any that she has been kidnapped, and ere this is far away in some field of the Two white men named respectively Pulley and Phelps, and a free negro, were arrested and lodged in jail last eveving on suspicion of being, concerned in the matter. The character of these three persons, I understand, are upon' a par; which, by the way, is not saying much for the white men, considering the detestable character of free negroes, generally.

I would heartily. rejoice if the next Legislature would devise some plan to relieve the community at large of such a Free negroes have always been an evil, and the above is but one in stance of a thousand in confirmation of the fact that they are a growing evil."

FROM WASHINGTON. Washington, Sept. 21. Our government has "not yet succeeded in obtaining redress for the late numerous outrages on the persons amf property of American citizens in Chili, notwithstanding Mr. Bigler, our Minister, has been exerting himself with determined vigor for that purpose.

Our difficulties with that country have become more complicated owing to the failure of the late Congress to clothe the President with ample power to prosecute all our unsettled claims against the Central and South American States to an adjustment- The Executive has notj in. this case, the means to enforce a compliance with our just demands. Should an unsuccessful peremptory 7 demand for satisfaction be made, and our Minister demand his passports, this subject will then be transferred to the serious consideration of The forthcoming improved stamped and self sealing evelopes, are likely" to become popular. Governor Morgan, of New York, and other functionaries, have already written to the Postoffice Department on the subject of the supplies. Attorney General Black; recently gave an official opinion that American citizeuship attaches to a child born in this country, the parents of whom are foreigners, and only temporary sojourners.

This is in accordance with the painci pies pronounced in an important case, the particulars of which are contained iu Sanford's New York Reports. -'y The Navy Department to-day received a telegraphic dispatch, conformitory of the statement of the total loss of the steamer Fulton, and has ordered a court of inquiry into the facts attending the disaster. Newport in the Fall. A correspondent of the Hartford Times, draws the following picture: 44 Newport, Sept. 15, 1859.

-The season is over. Newport is dull all but the winds they- are sharp enough about this time. The proprietors of the Ocean House, where so many people have made a sensationr4iave made $10,000 clear profit, (as reported.) the past three months, and have shut up shop. The i Atlantic, Bellevue and Fillmore, have a few still lingering gnests, but will close with September, and the place presents but little of that life that made its streets so stirring and attractive a few short days ago. Gone are the Croesus family, the Potipharas and Joneses, with their attendant train or cullid pussons" and poodles Jenkins, -with his brilliant, alphabet of fascinating Miss superb Miss and divine Mrs.

displayed to so much advantage in his letters to the Morning Glory, has cast his long lingering look at. Downing's oyster room and ha departed. The splendid turn-outs have turned in for the winter the beach looks bare "and desolate, and 44 Resignedly beneath the sky i The melancholy watert STAVE 3,000 received aud disposed of on pri new scheme that we do towards the Danville Connection if the people want the works and want to construct them with their own money, we say let 'em rip. All this patriotic; indignation about the projected roads injuring those already' in operation is all gammon. They will do no such thing.

But there is some good sense in the Watchman's article as wellas some jealousy aud a little Bunkum so here it is: NEW RAIL ROAD SCHEME, It will be seen by reference to the proceedings of a. meeting re'eently held at, Statesville, that come of the people of Iredell desire to secure the Charter of the Railroad from Charlotte via Statesville to Jonesboro', and have called a public meeting with thjat view. i We had hoped Iredell was well enough supplied with Rail road fucilites already, and that tliis project would never attract her serious concern; and even now it seems to us very doubtful whether it has friends enough of thd right sort to ensure its construction. Experience has taught one lesson to the people of Western North Carolina, i. e.

it is. nothing like as easy to build railroads as it is to talk about it. Salisbury and Mocksville did some pretty loud talking about a railroad connection, some yer or two ago: but, unfortunately, it all ended in talk and, until the prospect darkens considerably by the construction of works antagonistic to our interests here. it may not be very easily renewed. We have at least one very good reason for opposing this scheme starred by our friends in Iredell.

Mecklenburg, a the countit which adjoin Snth Carolina, we have long given up as hopelessly lost to our State, in a Commercial point of view. Their products flow into the South Carolina markei, and will continue to do so in spite of the Wilmington, Charlotte and Rutherford Railroad, we think, after the patriotic 'sons of the old North State have exhausted 'themselves in efforts to prevent it, They will go there in obedience to the same law which has for years drawn thither the products of that portion of the State referred to the superiority of the markets. A cotton growing State can always compete successfully for the products of a grain, stock, and small truck producing regiou, for the reason that it is better, to. buy these supplies than to neglect cotton crops to raise them. But Iredell, Alexander, some diher of the counties back of them; have heretofore mostly belonged to North Carolina and like true sons, they have preferred her and her destiny to all others arid Sve had fondly cherished the hope that with theijrpre-sent connection with our system of Roads they would have no' reason to desire a cnange.

But if they are really jn earnest about this new scheme, and should build it, like Mecklenburg, Gaston, Rutherford, they will fall into the lap of S. Carolina, just as naturally as apples fall to the ground. Then build the Danville connection, and let Virginia have the counties on the North-Eastern side of the State, and Wilmington, New-bem and the embryo cities of the have the tar, pitch, and turpentine porti on left to them, out of which to make the most they can; and thus, according to our notion, the prospect of building up a great North Carolina market town for the products of the State, will-vanish into very thin air. The wings of the gull and the fish-hawk may continue to whiten the coast of the-old North, and those feathered sprite of the sea break its silence by their screams but the pressed canvass and gaudy streamers of the merchant ship, and the hearty heave-song of the sailor will go to gladden other ears and other eyes than those of her sons on their native But one of the most important questions in regard to this scheme is, where is the money to come from to ouild it It will cost a pretty round sum, and we believe the. Charter promises no State aid.

The whole amount necessary to build and equip it must, therefore, be subscribed by individuals. The distance from Charlotte to Statesville is about 44 miles. This will most likely, be as far as the Road-will be extended within the next ten or fifteen years, if it ever be commenced at all. The sum necessary to build and equip this division, will have to'be raised at Charlotte and Statesville and on each side of the line between them. It can hard ly cost less than fifteen thousand dollars per mile.

Railroad orators always make low estimates They used to. say our N. C. Railroad could be built and equipped for from $10 000 to $12,000 per mile; but practically tested, $23,000 was barely sufficient If this new should cost only $15,000 per mile, the aggregatesum to be raised will be It won't take a dollar less to do the work. Better call it $700,000 at once, for that will hardly do it, if past experience is worth any thing at all.

Charlotte can't afford to pay more than for this Road, without paying entirely too dear for it. South Carolina won't bid higher than $100,000, and the balance, $400,000, must be raised but of the farmers along the line and the people of Statesville and vicinity. We think it can't or will not be done. The company may make a debt and work along for years, and perhaps, in the end, get State aid but like our. present Western Extension, the Stock will not pay a dividend during the life time of the builders, neither is it likely that Ihe management of its affairs Avill be less troublesome and vexatious than those 'of the Roads we now have.

In conclusion, we have only to add that we are opposed to this scheme also for the reason that it will injure Salisbury. It seems to us, at this time, that it would play thee mischief with Us. So we hope our friends up the country will stop a scheme that will dry up them, establish wrong connections, injure their neighbors, and wither the glory of the State. We confess this latter reason iniurv to Salis i i o- seriber just half the amount subscribed. Artistic 'Excellence.

It is on the Cumberland Plateau, Ten the propeller, which is placed in the bow of the boat, will enable the aeronaut to raise or lower the balloon at pleasure; and to keep steerage way on it.

The Duel that; Didn't Take Place, We have received says the Richmond Whig of yesterday, a voluminous account of this affair too long for publication.

Tho rivals happened to meet at the house of their lady-love, on Friday last, when the barber ridiculed the bar man.
