On Monday last, our citizens enjoyed the

The popular mind of Edgecombe is libera
lizing steadily, and we hope in a few years,
t iere will not be found within her limits, a
man unwilling to hear the views of those
trhom he may oppose, or unwilling to weigh
the facts in favor as well as those against
any system. Truth, we all know, is desira
ble, above all things; and we know equally
as well that it can only be attained by ex
amining both sides of every question. Edge
combe is now, easy and independent in pro
perty matters, and it is peculiarly proper
that she should seek the trutli boldly and
fearlessly. We doubt not, that she will so
do notnly as rcgar.ls temperance, but all
other matters worthy of the consideration of
a progressive people.
We once heard an ex-Governor say that
Edgecombe needed only one thing to make
her the banner county of the State, both
morally and physically, and that was, to
uit drinking whiskey, and we verily believe
lie spoke the truth. So may it be.

reply of the accomplished lady of Ex-Trcsi-dent
Tyler to the Duches3 of Sutherland, co

fitly and seasonably given, and as the Liiqut-
rer truly remarks : "We could not have de
sired a more judicious and moro liberal de

ESaync and Webster's
SPEECHES.
Redding & Co.. Boston, have published in
a neat pamphlet of 84 pages the speech of
General Hayne, of South Carolina, in the
U. S. Senate, on Mr, Foot's Resolution, Jan
uary, 1 SCO, and Mr. Webster's speech in
reply to it. Gen. Hayne was an eloquent
debater, and a fine specimen of Carolina
chivalry aud gentlemanly bearing. On the
occasion in question, he stood forth ostensi-
sibly as the champion of the South, and
ventured to break a lance with thc intellect
ual giant of the North. The speech is of
interest as a reminiscence of a period of high
political excitement and acrimony; and is,
moreover, necessary to a competent under
standing of Mr. Webster's reply. This, it
is generally known, has ever been regarded
and spoken of as "the great speech" of the
Massachusetts statesman; as a profound and
luminous exposition of fundamental princi
ples of the Federal Constitution. Had he
never delivered another speech, this alone
would have transmitted his name to tho lat
est periods of tho Republic.
This publication, interesting at any time,
derives additional interest from tho recent
death of one of these distinguished orators,
and we have no doubt will be eagerly sought
after by tho reading public. It may be or
dered from Boston by mail. The price is 25
cents.

WOMEN MATRIMONY.
Jfcw York, Jany 20, '53.
Maidens one and all : are you aware
that you were sent into existence for
some .purpose, that purpose is probably
matrimony, and the sooner after having
obtained the ago of marriage you set
about looking out a suitable companion,
the bettor it is for yourselves and others,
who otherwise would be seeking various
places of amusement, drinking to while
away the time, remaining up late at,
n'ght, and many other sources of dissi
pation equally as contemptible. Now
that winter is at hand, the season most
congenial to wedlock, its long cool eve
nings, bustling parties and romantic
balls, evening parties and teas, and a
number of other sources by which the
sexes aro caused to mingle together;
there is no reason why you should not,
before the blooming of May flowers,
have an encasement on your hands,
provided you should in any agreeable
manner avail yourselves of the opportu
nitics offered. As a matter of experi
ence, tis well enough to "look before
you leap," probably some good old
rran.hu other's maxim; but do not let a
good opportunity pass, for it may never
again be revealed, aud thus your hopes
may be frustrated.
Have nothing to do with some the
young , who neve r entertain a
thought above the general gossip of the
day: such fellows you will find numc
rous, and you will always find them too,
ready to lounge on an arm chair, sitting
on about one half the sofa at once, an I
' very ready to render themselves con
spicuous after you have concuted and

tesy they must compliment you on your
g'tol singing. Have nothing to do
with such fellows, cut their acquaint
ance at once and consider them below
par. But fix your mind on those of
steady habits, and do not wait f r a
man if he is such an one as your case
requires, though he be poor : you need
not mind that poor and meritorious.

ant of humble parents, (ami no doubt

l'rocrastination, it is said, is the thief
of time. Don't let the men procrasti
nate. They should clearly deliie their
position. To be, or nut to be, is the
question. We cannot refrain from ad
miring that proud and n:ibl heart, that
strong passion, which when it is fasten
ed on the object of its pursuit, is not
ashamed to let the world know it. But
there is one thing we do detest, and
that is, these old women match-making;
