| WILLIAM C. BRoWNLOW.
! This notorious rowdy and backguard fit companion
for such men as John W. Bear, was called upon oy ms
Federal friends al the late gathering in this CITY, ior
speech. And such a speech We shall not attempt
even give its outlines. II was smutty, ultra insult
| ing and basphemous. Among other things he SAID,
that if any Loco Focos present, he would advise
gentlemen to hold on to their pocke-b books
We understand lhis man made speech IN Greens
borough in this State, and Piled to by Dr. Wei
don f Wright, a fearless and talented young Demo
crat from Rockingham. DR.. Wright, We learn, apollo
gzed for noticing the man at all HIS position as
leading Editor aud Orator OF the Federal party and as
Delegate from Tennessee TO the Federal wing va
llonal Convention, gave him some importance, how
ever and the way he posed and lashed him. ought to
be caution TO all Brownlows Bears and Pump-borers
We learn that young friend alluded particularly
to the fthness and profanity of Brownlow rem1rks
and excoriaed him for deil,ng his garments as Mi
mister of the Gospel with the fumes and stencil OF hard
cider and general blackg uardism. The man, seems
made Of the expression in Greensborough that
he used here Just he concluding his harangue,
a stage drove up. He cried out "Genemen, 1t is the
STAGE packed full of good Wings; TO which some one
re Piled "No there sits Democrat" "Then," said
Brow nlow ale, all gentlemen hold on their pocket
books. We have two hundred Democrats in our Pen
tentiary in Tennessee and God knows how many more
ought 10 be there
Is this the way opponents intend 10 eleconcer:
Not content with insulting banners, with songs, and
coon-skins, and hardcider instruments, rs Mir.
Clay called them in his speech Saturday-are they
determined 10 conrince the people by such men as Bear
and Brownlow If so, let them go They could
do nothing better calculated TO advance the Democratic
cause.

Of which he is mcmber-a disgrace TO the Federal
Wing Party and lanen,abe blot upon the escutcheon
Of the Editorial corps. For one, put him from u
with inexprcsbe loathng and contempt and call upon
Editorial Brethren TO give him shove 10 The swamps
and quagmres Of black forgetfuluess.
P. S. Since writing the above, perceive that the
Register endorses the character OF Brownlow, and
holds him up as champion Of Wing principles. Let
his name be therefore enrolled on the same list with the
names Of Badger, and Stanly, and Cherry 10.

Ii affords inexpresshle pleasure the de-
termined and husasic spirit which pervades and
mates the Democracy of North Carolina. From oil
quarters we hear of union and concert, and OF fixed
ness OF purpose meet the adversary at all points, TO
slft and weigh, and expose his principles and to charge
boldly end earlessly into his thckest and strongest
mpment. This is as it should be. But stefner and
still stronger spirit must be evoked. Every Democrat
must forget himself and think only of his country -
No personal aspirations inconsistent with the comp tie
and glorious triumph Of the party should be INDUCED
