Shaw, the late member, was unanimously nominated for re-election. Great enthu siasm prevailed. The Democrats and anti-Know Nothings of the First District are already aroused, and are entering the campaign with a spirit and determination that give assurance of victory. But it must be borne in mind that the contest two years ago was close, and that the Know Nothings have again nominated Mr. Smith, who is, perhaps, their strongest man. Every effort will be resorted to to elect Mr. Smith. Our Democratic friends in the District must pre pare for an earnest, searching, energetic, deter mined struggle. Dr. Shaw, we may be sure, will do his duty ; but he must be seconded and sustained in every neighborhood and by every Democrat. With a determined and united effort, and by polling a full VGte, the result cannot be doubtful ; and the sooner the good work of thorough organization is be gun, the better. We will cheerfully publish accounts of the discus sions, and such documents as may be necessary to lay facts before the people of the District Wc are indebted to an. esteemed friend for the fol lowing notice of the Know Nothing Convention of the District : Dear Standard : The " opposition " met in con vention at Winton on Monday 'astfor the purpose of nominating a candidate to run for Congress, in oppo sition to the democratic party. The Hon. Kenneth Rayner was called to preside over the deliberations of this over patriotic convocation of disappointed gentlemen ; and some one, unknown to the writer, was requested to act as secretary. The Convention was pretty well attended by delegates, indeed it was decidedly the most respectable one of the opposition I have ever attended in the district. The delegates seemed to be actuated solely by a desire to defeat the democraticparty ; and it seems that they care not how it is accomplished or by whom, so it it done. I he t onvention experienced some difficulty as to the manner of voting, but that was submitted' to a com mittee who retired and reported that each county give as many votes as it is entitled to Commoners. I'pon the first ballot it wasa tie between John Pool, Esq.. and Mr. W. X. II. Smith ; but upon the second Mr. Smith reoeived a majority, whereupon his nomi nation was declared unanimous. Mr. Smith was present and accepted the nomination. At intervals during the day guns of almost every calibre were brought to bear upon the Democracy- from the nerve held pieces of such experienced artil lerymen as Rayner et id, down to the harmless pop guns of much smaller men. At the devoted heads of the Democracy did these iufnriated and desperate gentlemen hurl every species of abuse and denunci ation. Never before was there such furious but per fectly harmless abuse ; I am sure the most accom plished and experienced gentlemen from Billingsgate could not have surpassed them. After abusing us to their hearts content they adjourned, without even adopting a platform or suggesting any remedy by which the country eould be saved. This convention was a most interesting affair, and if I had time 1 would be pleased to give you a true and full account of its proceedings, but I am short of time. 1 am about leaving for Edenton and have written this in the greatest haste, 'simply to let you know the nom inee. From Edenton yon will hear from me again. G. Gates Countv, X. C. Mav 2-". 1859. Salem Female Academy. 7Ve at ttended last week the examination of the pu pils of this time-honored institution. The total number of scholars for 1S59 was 345. Of these 91 were from North-Carolina, 50 from South Carolina, 30 from Alabama, 28 from Mississippi, 21 from Georgia, 15 from Tennessee, 12 from. Texas, 8 from Louisiana, 7 from Virginia, 5 from Missouri, 2 from Kentuckv, 1 from Arkansas, 1 from the Indian Territory, and GS from Salem, N. C. The Rev. Rob ert DeSchweinitz is the Principal of the Academy, assisted by thirty-five teachers, male and female The examination, which commenced on Thursday morning and closed at about 12 M., on Friday, was highly interesting, and furnished the most complete and gratifying evidences of the superior manner in which the school is conducted. Where oil did so well it would be unjust to discriminate. ('Salem Fe male Academy is now in its 55th year. We may safely venture the opinion that no Female Seminary on the American Continent has been the means of shedding abroad more mental and moral light and influence than the Salem Academy, j The exercises were closed by the Principal with a fervent and touching prayer, and by the Rev. Mr. Bahnson with an eloquent address to the audience and the young ladies. Oxford and its Schools. We ("the Associate) spent a day or two in Oxford last week. It is a pretty place, and its schools are flourishing its inhabitants generally, intelligent, kind and hospitable. We met with many old ac quaintances, and made many new ones. Nearh', or quite, all the past week was spent there in the ex aminations of the various schools, addresses, con certs, parties, &c. We were too late to hear the ad dress of Rev. B. Craven before the Clio Society of Oxford Female College, but it was very highly spo ken of. Mr. Horner's school for boys is in a pros perous condition ; and our opportunities enabled us to know that his pupils not only respect, but love him, showing that he is not only kind to them, but firm in his discipline; for boys respect no teacher who does not govern them. There are, we believe, five or six schools in Ox ford, and we should be pleased, had we the means of doing so, to give a brief account of their prospects, and their proceedings during the past week ; but as we cannot do full justice to all, we will not attempt it with any. The Sixth District. While in Salem we had the pleasure of conversing with a number of friends in relation to the prospects of the Hon. Alfred M. Scales, the Democratic and anti-Know Nothing candidate in the Sixth District. Mr. Scales is maintaining his cause with marked ability before the people, and his speeches are pro ducing a fine impression. He is said to be an over match for Gen. Leach in every respect, except in unscrupulousness and demagoguism. The General, it is said, does excel in these two respects. He is winning his laurels fairl-, and is entitled to wear them as a demagogue of the first water. But he has gone before the wrong people with his trickery and misrepresentations. The impression among well-informed Democrats is, that the Democracy of the District have nothing to fear, provided they do their duty. But steps should be taken to thoroughly organize in all the Counties. It will not do to depend alone on former majorities. The recent result in Virginia admonish es us that large majorities cannot be maintained with out effort, and that perpetual vigilance is the price of victory. The Coalfields Railroad. This work has been finished across Little River. We have had an invi tation from our friend, J. H. Gallaher, builder of the bridge over this stream, to visit the place with a company of our citizens who arc to go there to-day. We regret, however, that business of importance calls us from home, thus preventing us the enjoy ment of a pleasant trip. We have heard from good judges that this bridge is an excellent piece of work manship, and we trust the Company may conclude a bargain with Mr. Gallaher for the bridge across Deep River. Daily Carolinian. Programme on the Arrival of the President of the United States at Raleigh. The following is the order of proceeding on the arrival of the President In this city on his route to Chapel Hill. It will be observed that a change has been made in the point at which the special train will stop, viz. : the N.C.R.E.

ULrt. sun r.n, George Hines, j May 30, 1859. The Virginia Elections. We give below the latest despatches to the Peters burg Express of the 30th : Richmond, May 29, 91 P. M. In one hundred and eleven counties, Letcher leads Goggin three hundred and thirty-live. There are thirty-seven counties to be heard from, which gave Wise four hundred and forty-nine G. Richmond, May 29. 10 P. M. Letcher's chances appear to be growing smaller. The counties of Scott and Lee have just been heard from. They give Goggin a gain of eleven hundred. The Very Latest. Richmond, May 29, 11.45, P. M. Full returns from all the old counties of the Ab ingdon District, have been received. They show a majority of Jire hundred and forty-three for Goggin. Gov. Wise carried the same counties in 1855, by a majorty of 3,540 U J. G., Jr. Should the above dispatches be true, it is possi ble that Mr. Goggin may have defeated Mr. Letcher. The Richmond Enquirer of the 30th says: " It will be seen from the returns that Mr. Letcher will be elected by a much smaller majority than that which confirmed the Democratic triumph of 1S55. The aggregate vote of the State will be found comparatively small. Indeed, in a number of the counties, the entire vote polled is less than two thirds of the vote of four vears ago. Doubt less, from many indications, these returns are unre liable. Most probably the Opposition gain has been seriously exaggerated in some instances. Still, there is enough to indicate a heavy Democratic loss, as compared with the result of previous elections." " No possible calculation, however, is sufficient to give countenance to the expectition of an Opposi tion triumph. Mr. Letcher's election is now shown to be secure, beyond a doubt" Congressional Districts. Tn the Congressional Districts we have the following results: 1st District John S. Millson re-elected without opposition. 2d District Muscoe R. H. (iarnett re-elected without opposition. 8d District I). C. Dejarnette, (indep. Dean.,) elected over J. S. Caskie, late representative. 4th District William O. Qoode is doubtless re-elec-ed though opposed by W. C. Flournoy. oth Dis trict Thos. S. Bocock has no opposition. 6th Dis trict A despatch from Charlottesville says thatShel ton F. Leake " is certainly elected over Paulus Pow ell." 7th District William Smith is doubtless re elected over Henry W. Thomas, Whig, and Henry Shackleford, Democrat. 8th District Alexander R. Boteler, Opposition, and Chas. J. Faulkner, Dem., are the candidates. Faulkner is believed to be elec ted by a small majority. "Jth District The Tenth Legion. The candidates here are John Harris, Dem., and J. H. Skinner, Dem. nominee. It is believed that Harris is elected 10th District Henry A. Ed mondson has no opposition. 11th District Sher rard Clemens has no opposition. 12th District A. G. Jenkins elected over Maidley, opp. 13th District Here, Benjamin Rush Floyd, nominee, is running against Elbert S. Martin. Ind Dem. The telegraph ic reports show majorities for both, but the returns are not sufficiently full to state how the contest has resulted. We expect later news before we go to press. The Result. By the politeness of Mr. Paul, editor of the Pe tersburg Press, we arc enabled to announce that Hon. John Letcher is certainly elected Governor of Vir ginia. We received the following dispatch from Mr. Paul at o'clock Monday evening : Peteksbubg, V.v., May B0, 1859. Authorities vary on the majority of Letcher. The Opposition put it at 1500. Wo "put it between 250t l and 5,000. Thirty-one counties yet to hear from. 33?" We had the pleasure of meeting in Salem, among other friends, the Hon. David S. Reid and the Hon. Thomas Settle, Jr. Gov. Reid is iu excel lent health and spirits. Mr. Settle had just " mar ried a wife," and was looking remarkably well, as he was of course very happy. He was on his way with his lovely bride to the North, where they expect to spend a few weeks. We also had the pleasure of meeting Col. Gordon, of Wilkes, and J. R. McLean, Esq., of Guilford, who passed through Salem from the wedding at Mr. Glenn's. . Ohio Lkmoerntic Convention. Cincinnati, May 26. The Democratic State Con vention in session here, have nominated R. P. Ran ney for Governor by acclamation ; H. C. Whitman for Supreme Judge ; Volney Dorsey for Auditor ; Wm. Bushnell for Secretary of State, and Jacob Reinhardt for Treasurer. Election of a Bishop. Burlington, May 27. On the thirteenth ballot to-day, the Rev. Dr. Odenheimer was elected by a convention of the clergy and laity as Bishop for the diocese of New Jersey The election was declared unanimous. Well Done foi: Richmond. The gallant Democ racy of Richmond deserve the thanks of the Democ racy of the whole State. In the most hotly contest ed election that has ever taken place in the State, the Richmond Democracy have reduced the Opposi tion majority from 978 in 1855 to 460. Goggin loses 101, and Letcher gains 817. In 1855 the vote was, for the Know Nothings 2144; for the Democracy 116(i. In 1859, Opposi tion vote 2043 ; Democratic 1583. Though we have lost the Delegates, which will be deeply regretted, yet we congratulate the Spartans of Richmond on the gradual increase of their vote, and the certain indications of future success held out by the reduction of the " Opposition " vote and the increase of the D'. .oerzey. Richmond Enquirer. Fayettevulb Mutual Insurance Company. The annual meeting of this Company was held at the office on Thursday last, 19th inst.

The officers are the right kind, and this fact, together with the liberal policy of the conipanj-, has been the means of placing this institution in its present situ ation. Daily North Carolinian. Whig Convention. The Whig District Conven tion assembled in this town on Wednesday last to nominate an opposition candidate for Congress in this District. Gen. J. A. Young of Charlotte, was ap pointed President, and Thos. J. Holton, J. J. Brunei-, and C. W. Fenton, Secretaries. We have not had an opportunity to see the pro ceedings, but learn that all the counties were repre sented, except Cleaveland, by 59 delegates. They were not represented bj regularly appointed dele gates, (for all the counties in the District did not hold meetings,) but by persons who happened to be present. Gen. Walkup, of Union, made, a speech and nom inatcd Thos. S. Ashe, Esq., of Wadesboro, which was ratified by the convention unanimously. Resolutions were atlopted, we learn, denouncing the democratic party and harping pretty freely on the tunc of corruption and extravagance. N. Boy den. Rufus Barringer, R. A. Caldwell, Gen. Voting, J. J. Bruner, S. H. Walkup, and Mr. Shober made speeches. Mr. Ashe, the nominee, is a gentleman in every sense of the word, an old lawyer, and is said to pos sess considerable ability. If he accepts, the canvass will no doubt be conducted by him and Mr. Craige in a proper and agreeable manner. But he will have to work hard if he gets any advantage over Craige, who has faithfully represented the District for the la.-t 8 years, and in whom the people have implicit confidence and arc willing to endi rse again by a re-election Char.
