NORTH CAROLINA FREE,

The Collar is off the Agrarians are pro-

the Treasury dependents and expectants,
though as thick as locusts, are powerless
and PROSTATE i!
We have private information to this
effect, in advance ofthe Western mail and
from source which leaves no doubt of
the fact. Only four Counties are to be
heard from, aud if all Of these go for the
Administration, which is not probable, the
Wigs will have a mGority Of eight an Sen

FOURTEEN ON JOINT BALLOT! Gov. DUB
LEY is reelected by majority somewhere
between $4,000 and 10000!
If this is not regeneration, we know not
what it is. We have been for the last hour
almost in the condition of honest Robin
Roughhead when he sunk the clown and
assumed the lord, In other words,we have
been seriously debating in our mind whether
we would put any thing else in our present
number than the above pleasing news.
Our good nature prevails, and as we have
some dozen Jackson mot Van BUREN, sub
scribers, who are very clever follows, we
have determined not to proclaim this great
moral victory in a manner SO "gallingly
conspicuous.

you in favor ofthe passage of resolution
by the State Legislature declaring that
Congress ought Immediately to abolish

Slavery, yet at the present crisis, under all
the circumstances connected with the sub
ject, and the great excitement in our ma

prudent TO waive the subject and not press
such resolutions. AS to the second ques-
ton, in regard to slave holding States be-
ing admitted into the Union. for one, am
not DESTROYS that we should add to our num-
Der of Save-holding States, yet clrcuin-
stances may alter cases, so that am not
prepared fully TO say what my action would
be nsuch case.

olR,
Your letter on behalf of the Anti-Slavory
Society is received. Believing it be not
onlv the right, but the duty also of the
electors TO ascertain, as far as they can, the
opinions and principles ofthose whom they
well can, the opinions and principles Of
these whom they select for public stations,
! can have no objection to meet such en-
quiries as any portion Of my fellow citizens
may think proper to make, with that view.
As constant friend to liberty, cannot
but be opposed to slavery and oppression
IN every form as unjust to the sufferer, and
injurious to both parties. In every sina-
ton therefore, in which the people may see
fit to place nc, shall feel bound to use all
reasonable means to mitigate, check or put
an end TO, the evils OF slavery, as opportu-
nifty may occur, so far as nay be consist
ent with the constitutions under which wc
act, and which hold sacred,
Professions however, have been 50 abu-
sed during the tendency of our elections,
rs to have become too often OF little worth;
and the people should rather look to the
character, conduct aud practice Of candid
ates, than to their professions Hence the
best answer can give to your enquiries is
reference to my votes at the last session
ofthe Senate of this State, on the reson-
tons introduced into the House by Gen
Appleton The Yeas and n iys may be
found in the last number Of the Maine Dat
ly Journal. on the two principal questions,
and my other votes were coniormabe 10
them. am Sir, respectfully

GENERAL ORDER FROM THE

CUSTOM HOUSE
An honest yeoman belonging out back,
who keeps rather still about politics, has
Just pat in our hands, an infamous docu-
ment, which certain Custom House scull-
ion put into his hands this morning, and
which was issued from the Telescope Of
fee last night.
The outrageous article, commences by
ordering al! democrats TO "adhere to
their principles" and to ''look out for
bribery" and then goes on in an outrageous
strain of fn!sehood against the Wings,
" 9TH the design to deceive the voters;
alleging that the Wings or feds, as
they call us have always practlced
fraud and are now attempting to detraud,
bribe, and intimidate the free people
to vote as they say Base SANDER! The
Scoundrels who would send forth such
tissue of falsehood ought to be scorned and
hooted at by every intelligent freeman.
We say then; beware of tricks. Look
out for falsehoods and Misrepresentation.
