Ureat It ace. - We ncTer remember to have seen, since the great race between Boston and Fashion, a larger aFsem bliRe of people than graced the Fashion Cour.-e .yesterday. To attempt to enumerate the numbers present will be out of our power, for their narue . was legion. From an early hour in the rooming ontil a short time b. fore starting the horses the "crowd was imber'tug fast, audi b two .V!oci wwy available spot within the enclosure wis occu- pied. There were more ladies on the (.land than . were ev r before seen ia attendance at a race course . in America at least in the North and notwith standing the intereH of the great event of the day was marred by an untoward accident which befel Charleston the day previous, causing his with drawal from the race, yet tbt ir joyousnees and ad miration of what took place were unbounded. Most of them never witnessed a race before, and they vowed that in future thr-y wou'd never miss notUer. They wire delighted the sterner s x disappointed. The accident to Charleston, alluded to above, was occasioned by the breaking of a stir rup in his exercise ou Monday, and the itjury done lira was of such a character that his owner deem ed it prudent to pay forfeit, and withdraw him from the rce. There was much discussion among bet ters as to whether wacers made on the field against Nicholas were void or not, he having been the fi Torite against the field at one hundred to sixty pre vious to th ac idnt. k gentleman in the judges stand attempted to elucidate the matter in a long and unintelligible rigmarole of word?, which were Capital Greek to every bo-Jy but liiinbi 11 as every one was inquiring of I id neighbor the niture of the argument, and what wbtr the "pints." The race seemed long in coming off; although the horses were called at the time announced, the interest having died away with the withdrawal of the Southern champion ; and the belting, when done, was on Nicholas, at one hundred to twenty, and iu some cases at a lower figure. The general arrangements for the comfort of visitors were the ben we have seen, the refecto ries, the police, and everything else being conduct ed properly. At half past two o'clock Charleston was brought before the stand with his near fore leg bandaged, so that the spectators might see that there was no bumbug intended that the injury was real, and that be was unfit to run. He is a beautiful horse, and was much admired; and it was a great pity that be could not have shown the people how fast bis legs could carry him. Nicholas was ridden on this occaf ion by Gilpatrick, the rider of Prioress in the late Good wo yd race. Hid nag yesterday ran much faster than the one he backed iu England, and the time of that celebrated race was beaten into lint. Our space wi!l iiot admit of further comment, we therefore give a brief review of the running: First Ileat Both horses got off at the tap of the drum, Engineer leading. The pace for the first mile was rather slow, the mile being rau in 2;02. The second heat was somewhat quicker the time being 1:55$. And after entering on the third mile, Engineer began to show symptoms of exhaustion, although it was run in 1:56. Nicholas, who had been trailing along the previous part of the race, now made play, and goiug up to Engineer, passed him like a ehadow. All hopes of Engineer win cing the heat were now at an end, and Nicholas led in tbe score, a winner of the heat ia 7:45. Second Heat The second was nearly a repeti tion of the first, except that' the pace was some what quicker for the first three miles, which were run iu the capital time of 5:41. There seemed to be a struggle on the part of the Eopitieer.as to which should lead to tbe end of the third mile, his rider using the most strenuous efforts to force him along without avail, however, as Nicholas went by him as they came the home stretch, and led by the staud at a rapid rate. Here Eugineer seemed to rtlio quiab tbe contest, and further forts on the pirt of his rider was fruitless?, and nothing more could be done than get Lim home to the best advantage. Nicholas won the heat, coming home in a canter, in 7:47. The following is a summary : Fasbios Course, Sept 29. Furse and stake $500 four mile heals. J. Hunter named ch. g. Nicholas I. 11 J.

Look out for ehavers now, who will buy up the issues of the Free Banks at heavy discounts, and those who are fools enough to submit to a shave can do no.

Mr. He Daniel stayed all night at the same house with Skeggs the former going to Tazewell the latter returning with tbe abskts, and professed ignorance of the Bank and its affairs, in every respect!

Tin Tobacco Crop. Our State exchanges bgin to furnitsh reports in regard to the tob.eco crop, wt ieh has happily, thus far, escaped the dangers of an early frost. A forthnigbt'a continuance of the fine weather now prevailing will enable the farmers to xccure a large crop, notwithstanding tho adverse influence of wind, rain and vermin. The Salem Register says : A heavy rain accompanied with violent wind and bail, visited some portions of this country, on Sa turday last, the 19 ib, doing immense damage to the tobacco crop. The bail tell in immense ci.utiki in some instances. Capt. Jacob Miller ralates thai ha had the curiosity to measure one of these, and found it to measure seve'j inches in circumference. Seme farmers lost the largest part of their tobacco crop. Where the hail did it but littld Injury, the wind was so violent as to bre .k and tear it lo pieces. The Fredericksburg Herald say : The cutting and bousing of the tobacco crop Is now employing the agricultural force of this and neighboring coutitsva. As a gener.it rule the crop is a good oue, though we hear of occasional short crops. The seasou has beeu a good one thus fur, and we hazard tittle iu tbe opinion that both in quality and quantity it will exceed thai of last year. The Petersburg Frprex says : We learn from several country friends that tbe tobacco crops in the surrouuding couuli a are suf fering exlennively from the ravages of the tobacco worm. A gentleman raising a small crop iu Cher terfield cn exp rirnent, has now about two pounds and a half of sound leaves in the field. He did not tena it properly, il is true, but the fact forms a striking instance of the voracity and tnul tiplicity of the destructive ui ouster. Narrow Ecaik. The Charlotteville (Va.)

A resolution providing for a conyention of the two Houses of the Legislature, on the 8th inst., (to-morrow,). to elect a Sen ator in the place of Gov. Jones, was adopt ed by both the Senate and the House of Representatives yesterday. This is what might be termed "kurryiDg np the cakes." Gov. Johnson, in the opinion of hisjfriends, must be very hungry, or they would not be in so great haste to spread the board for him. lie, no doubt, wants to eat, and will eat; but the table must be prepared in the proper manner. He has his own ideas about these things, and his admirers would do well to ascertain what they are. Gov. Johnson is a great stickler for the true principles of the Constitution. lie would sooner starve than to eat unconstitutional ly. Iu 1841, in a speech in tbe State Sen ate, on the 16th of November, he declared that the Constitution did not authorize a Convention of the Legislature to elect a Senator; that, the election to be constitu tionally made, must be by the separate and distinct vote of each House, just as they did yesterday in the adoption of the resolution providing for the Convention. He declared that if he should go into Con vention, he would violate fas oath. Euter taining these opinions, how could he accept the position of Senator, if elected by a Con vention, and then take an oath to support the Constitution? He couldn't do it. No; if the sham democracy wish him to rep resent them in the United States Senate they must undo what they have done, and elect him by the separate action of the two houses. We subjoin extracts from the speech of Gov. Johnson, referred to above, as we find it in the Nashville Whig, of Nov. 19, 1841: "He (Mr. Johnson) contended that the Legis lature was composed of two distinct bodies, and iL quired if it was a Legislature, in the proper sense of the term, when in convention. Iu this case, he said the Legislature loses its distinctive ch iracter, the Senate was disiptted in tbe more numerous body. He contended that they should always be kept distinct. Such was the intention of the con stitution, that tbe distinctive character of the two houses could otdy be maintained when they were kept separate that when in convention it teas no Legislature. " Custom had established the mode of election by joint ballot ; he said audi a mode wa unconsti tutional althijXKjh sanctioned by precedent, and it was time that the custom should be aboih-hed, and the election conducted according to tbe true meaning of tbe constitution. We perhaps said Mr. J. should not have thought of thif, if the contest had not been a close one on this account we now resort to firrt principles, and thus ascertain the true meaning of the constitution. In the division of powers, the two houses are checks upon each other, but this can ocly be ia their separate and distuict character; when in convention the check is lost, as tbe two houses form but one body. "In support of his opinion that the election should be by tbe concurrent vote of the two houses, and not by joint ballot in convention, he referred to the opinions of chancellor Kent, Judge Story, the Fed.evaliet and the Federal Farmer, all of whom entertained similar opinions as to the construction of the constitution. Precedent, he said, was en titled to no weight unless it conformed to the true principles of the constitution which he said was op posed to the practice of electing by joint ballot. In the view wbicb be entertuiued of the constitution Mr. J. said he won' d violate his oath and the prin ciples of the constitution if he voted to go into tbe election by joint ballot upon this platform he be planted himself,'1 ic. Shall we Iiave a I. on if Sesaion? From the opening indications, we fear this question will be practically answered in the affirmative. The tendency, of late years, has been, to prolong the sessions of our Legislature, to what appears to the people at large, an unreasonable length. The sesion of 1853-4 was no less remarkable for its duration, than for the small amount of business done for the general interest of the State. The. last sessiou was about the same length, and although it performed more service than its predecessor, yet it was unnecessarily protracted. What shall bo the course of this? From the intima tious of Mr. Speaker Donelson, we imaj ine that the democracy have a vast amount of labor cut out, and we may expect that the present session will yield to none of its forerunners in a want of brevity. We have no idea that any member comes to the Legislature with the deliber ate view of lengthening the sessions un necessarily. Rut it is nevertheless true that it is doue, though unwittingly. There is unquestionably a large amount of time consumed at every session, in the consider ation of useless legislation, and still more thrown away iu gaseous discussions. There is another large measure wasted in thwart iug the smooth operution of parliamentary rules, by nonsensical discussions, as to what they ought to be or really are; nor should we omit iu kthis computation, the inattcn tion of members to tho business before them, and the laziness of Committees in the discharge of tlie'.r duties. TJie difficult and arduous position of Speaker, devolves upon those oflicers, the power and duty of correcting, to some extent, these abuses of time, and we might add, of the public pa tience. They should hare a thorough knowledge of parliamentary rules, and of the ruha adopted for the government of the two Houses, and be ever prompt and firm iu their enforcement. If added to these, they atteud closely to the Order of Business, they will bo able, doubtless, to expedite busiues.s, and conserve the public interests. They should do this eveu at the hazard of being sometimes considered rude and arbi trary. We have uo doubt they will be able, by their general courtesy, to convince tho members that tho public good is their paramount desire and that any apparent harshness is really au act of charity. But whatever the presiding officers may Le able to effect in this respect, upon the members themselves very much depends for the cor rection of the evils. If they would discard all ideas of making a scsaion of the Legis lature a holiday, and come down earnestly, actively and uuremitingly to their labors, discarding all frivolous discussions, and de voting their time and attention to the real business of the people, one half the abuses would already be corrected. If they would consider wrll'of measures before they pro pose Hew, and never introduce a bill utiles it were intended to, andiwould bring real benefit to the State or the Citizen ; ana ll, I after measnres are cronosed. the TariOUS I .

Mr. R. has, for some weeks past, held the position, sub rosa, and has added largely to the interest and en tertainment of the paper, ne wields a vigorous and effective pen. The following is his brief and appropriate salutation to his readers upon assuming the tripod: Salutatory. In connecting myself with the Banner. I have not been unmindful of the resDonpibiliti-s of tbe po sition which I have asRumcd. I am fully aware that the proper discharge of its duties will require all the mental and physical energies I may be able lo command, it shall therelore be mv arm tonoer- t the approval of the Banutr's readers, by filling u columns with entertaining and instructive mat ter. The political character of the Banner will of coure not be affec ted by my connection with it. It shall still be found the same firm and unyielding advocate of true conservative doctrine in has ever beeu. In times like the present of extreme views and radical tendencies, sectional animosities and learlul agitations, the public journal thai platts it- Self upon high conservative grounds, and holds on to me old doctrines upon which our greatness as a nation hap been founded and built up, while it may De unacceptable to some readers, must receive tbe sanction of all lovers ol their country. Iu my brief connection with the Banner,l have taken occasion to express my views with perfect frankness upon gome of the political aspects and tendencies of the day, and this shall be my policy in the future. I conclusion, I have ouly to say, that il is with pleasure that I this morning, for the first time, pub licly greet tte readers of the Banner, and to ex press the hope thai our mutual regard may increase witb our acquaintance. I mdulue the hope also. tbat, adding my humble aid to tbe acknowledged ability and experience of my colleague, we will be ably to make a paper worthy of general regard and approval. JAMES E. RAINS. Seatli of Wni. Ed. Vcnuble, Esq. It was with sincere regret that we read, iu our telegraphic despatch yesterday from New York, of the death of Wn. Ed. Yex able, Esq., the United States Minister to Guatemala. Only a few months ago, he took leave of his friends in this city, on his way to fill his mission, in the finest health, and looking forward with pleasure to a ca reer of usefulness in the service of his coun try. The cholera prevailing in the coun try, on his arrival there he appears to have been almost immediately cut down by it. This event whilst it deprives his native land of an able Min'lter, will be a sure af fliction to his family and friends. Xlie State Fair.

Between the Asiatic slave and fn master there is no bond under the benign influence of which the latter can hope to survive his term of apprentice ship. He is called a free colonist; be is hired for -o many years; bound to his master, whose only desire is to eet as much work out of him for that oeriod as he can. What becomes of him after bis terra of labor bas expired is without the master's consideration. He has no business with him then. He has whipped and tortured the slave into "use fulness."

They belong to tbe planter for life.

The European eovernor'nta, whose organs so vi. olently abuse the American system of African sla verv, might take many humane le-sons from it for tbe management of their AeiaHc serfs. The diff r- ence of the systems pursued by the respective con tinenia is just this : The American system prolongs the lite of the Af rican ; the Europem system accelerates the whole sale murder of the Asiatic. The property system protects the blacks; the apprentice system protects tbe whites. In the Havana correspondence of the Herald we have an outline of the horrors attending this awful system of "free colonists," which meets the appro bation of England, France, and the wildest Aboh tionif-ts of the Northern States. The comtnuuica tion from which we vuote is dated Havana, Sept. 23: "Since last there have been two arrivals of Asi atic free colonifts at this port the first on tbe 15th mat, 250 in rumber, under the Dutch nig. Ihey both came via St. Helena. Ol the first cargo uxty died at sea. "The following circumstances will prove to you the cruel treatment these poor white slaves under go upon the sugar estates in this island: "A wealthy Creole family are the proprietors of several sugar estates.

By this I find, Irom an intel igent Chines-?,' they understand, a conformance to the hours of labor on tne estate, the performing of such work us they may be direct ed to do, to the best of their ability, aud, in short, conducting themselves as good laborers should do ; but they did not suppose they were, under any cir cumstance, to be whipped with th& lash. 'If,' said this Chinese to me, 'any one committed a theft, then we thought the punishment wotill be impris onment, and in bad cases the bastinado. In reply to my inquiry, 'what he would do were he whipp ed?' '1 would,' lie exclaimed passionately, 'first kill the man who whipped m , and then kill myself. I could not live after I had been flogged.'" A momentous Warning's Upon the fair and honest exercise of the power of appointment, must in a great measure depend tbe vij:or, the public virtue, and eveu the safety of the Government. If it shall ev?r be wielded by an executive ex clusively to gratify his own ambition or resentments, to satisfy his own personal favorites, or to carry his own political measures, and, etill more if it shall ever interfere with the freedom of tlectioss by the people, or suppress the hone it expression of opin ion and judgment by voters, it will become oue of tbe most dangerous and corrupt engines to destroy private indt pndence and public liberty, which can afstil a republic. It should therefore be watched in every free government with uncommon vigilanee, as it may, otherwise, soon become as secret as it will be irre sistible in its mischievous operations. II the time shall ever arrive when no citizen can ohtuin any appointment to office, unless he submit to sacrifice all personal independence and opinion, and to become the mere sUve of those who cau confer it, it is not diflicult to fortsee that the power of appointment will then become the fittest instru ment of artful men to accomplish the worst ol pur poses JudgeStory Tbe Survivor off (he Central America, ou the Course of Cap. Moue aud the Lldoradoi In reply to several of the survivors of the Cen tral America, who have published a statement con cerning the schooner Eldoardo, the pilot who took the Eldorado up Boston harbor Buys it was so impossibility for that schooier to lay by the steam er. She ia a large flat -bottomed schooner, drawing ouly seven feet water, and would inevitably have drifted to leeward, without any possibility of getting bitk. She could easily nave accommodated all on board the steamer, but her only chance of succor ing them was to have made last to the steamer. Tbe captain, when be approached tbe steamer, fully expected that they would throw him a line to which he could make fist, but there was but a moment in which he was near enough for this, and that pre cious moment was lost without any nttempt made on board the steamer for this purpose. The Nor folk Argus is informed by the Captain of the brig Marine that Le also rounded to close under the stern of the steamer, and expected to find a boa, out with the end ot one of her large hawsers on board which he might easily have secured and held on by, but to Lis dismay found coue io readiness, aud in a minute more Le was drifting rapidly away, and in so disabled a condition tbat he could not g-t back.
