TOR EFFECT ONLY.

We were under the impression that the
nomination Of Mr.. Calhoun in Charlotte in
preference to being made by The Conven-
ton i Salisbury on the Goth May last,
was certainly for effect, and the order was
no doubt given out that the nomination
should commence at Charlotte and then
they could make great flourish about the
noble stand Of Meclcnburg in l775. That
we are right, the following extract from
the Western CaroIinian clearly bears us
out:
This is highly proptious movement. In
100 Mecklenburg, unaided and alone, with the
daring spirit which struck for Liberty in our
great Revolution first hoisied the flag IT hide.
peFdeBce in q contest that was crowned with sue
cess and glory; and now from the same spot, and
by the sons of the same noble Patriots, We see
the hsg Of Reform flung ont TO tho breeze as the
sigma OF success in great cause that mus, til
uHIh II the South prove true TO herself We
hai it as glad omen, and with this banner on
the outward WALL" under the lead of old Neck
lenberg we'll worthy TO take the front rank in
such cause, many will follow. Her call will be
responded to with enthusiasm from the mountains

noble stand against the expressions of the

lenbig and Cabarrus) at this time .
True as steel to Wing principles. And
where are the descendants of that gal
liant bad who signed the Mocklenburg
Declaration of Independence Nearly
the whole Of them, as We were inform
ed By friend the other dav, are advo-
Gates Of Wing principles. And yet, it
is heralded abroad hat this nomination
has been made by the sons Of the Patriots
who pledged their lives, their fortunes
and their most sacred honor" in the cause
Of Independence in l775-iI is all perfect
humbug, all for effect. There may have
been present some of the descendants of
these patriots, who took an active part in
Inc proceedings but their number is small
IN comparison with the number that is op.
posed TO their proceedings. So much for

RETAINED BILLS.

The President has retained in his hands
two bills, until the expiration Of the Session
Of Congress, which is veto on both to all
lntenis and purposes. The bill repeating
that provision of the Distribution Act
which suspends its operation when the du.
ties are higher than 30 per cent ad valo-
rem, might have been signed by the Pre-.
sident, as he did the Tariff law. one obcc.
lion to both being removed-tliat is, the
coupling Of the questions Of the Tariff and
the Land-but he seems to favor no law
that the Wings are DESTROYS of passing.
The other bill withheld is the bill pre-.
scribing the mode Of taking evidence in
cases. OF Contested Elections. A more
important measure, in our view, could not
have been adopted by Congress. The
New Jersey case must be fresh in the
minds of the people-this bill was intend
cd 10 prevent recurrence of such scene
as a sovereign State being DISTINGUISHED
by Clerk of the House, and we cannot
see with what propriety the President
could withhold his signature, for if there
be any one matter with which the Execu-
tive ought not 10 interfere, il is the organi-
cation of the Legislative bodies, but by the
meeting of the 26th Congress VIC shall
have clue, no doubt, for his withholding
his signature from the bill, or it may even
be found in an extract of a letter from Dorr
10 his political friends in Rhode Island
where he states that the next Congress
will be "largely democratic" and pin
receive the members elected under the suf
frdge Constitution" The President has
been charged with secretly favoring Dorr,
and as his oracle, the Madisonan, has
como out for Mr.. Calhoun, every exertion
will be made by the Capting to defeat the
Wing Candidate for the Presidency.

advertised, on Friday last, but was rather
a meagre affair. What this was owing 10,
we cannot undertake TO say, but the fact
is so, that this Dinner, which has been
