ofevery citizen is, to devote himself to the
destruction Of that Union and that Constitu-

honest men in a worse than military despo-

will unfold in noble proportions the princi-

The Milton Chronicle, which had been plead

for Mr.. Kerr on account of General Taylor, thus
notices the election in Caswell County : The

icle, Gen. Taylor has been defeated also -,a,,r
But if the Editor of the Chronicle sheds so
many tears over the result in the Fifth District,
we reckon he will below right ont when he hears
from this portion Of the State. Here Gen. Tay-

friends, for his peculiar standard bearer Henry l.

North Carolina Elections.

5 On Thursday last the people ofthis State voted
for nine members of the Thirtieth Congress. We
present in to days paper all the returns received
up to the latest moment .y.,zf,,,.2 s,, sy-a:,s,sf
In the First District the Candidates were Thos.
L. Clingman and John Gray Bynum, both Feds.
We have no, intelligence whatever from that re-
gion of the State ). t. ~. I..sl
In the Second District the Candidates were Ma
thaniel Boyden and Joseph M. Boyle, both Feds,
and, in the First District, sustained by large
Federal majority. No news from them.
In the Third District the Federal Candidate
was Daniel VI. Barringer His majority was
large, but the Democrats generally expected to
vote for Walter F. Leake, Of Richmond, though
that gentleman had declined to be Candidate,
In the Fourth District the Candidates were A.
H. Shepherd FedcralisL and Junius L. Glenn
mons, Dem ocrat The Federal majority was
some eighteen hundred votes under the Rayner-
mander, but we have no doubt that Mr.. Glenn
mons has reduced it considerably. - .-....e.
Ia the Fifth District Abraham w. Venable,
Democrat has been elected over John Kerr, Fed
eralis by III minority. s..l.,..s,.l s-e.r
In the Sixth District, Gen. Daniel, Democrat,
has been elected over A. H. Arlington and Hen
ry l. Toole, Independent DemocIatic Candidates.
The Seventh District has no doubt elected Gen.
Mckay, Democrat, over Mr.. Hall, Federalist, and
Mr.. Bryan. Independent Democrat s.
In the Eighth District the Candidates were,
Richard S. Donnel, FederaIist, and William K
Lane, Democrat. We have heard from but few
Counties, and it is therefore impossible to predict
the result with any degree of certainly. Mr.
Lane was running well, but the Federal majority
under the Raynermander was between seven and
eight hundred. ,r-
The Ninth District, weregrct TO say, has most
probably elected David Outlaw, Federalis, over
Col. Biggs, Democrat.
The Democrats have elected three certain TO-
wit: Messrs. Daniel, Venable, and Nc Kay, and
we think there is some ground for hoping for the

The Character Of Whig Politicians, as portrayed
by a leading IHhig.
Mr.. Giddings, the we'll known Wing Abolition
member of Congress from Ohio, recently made a
speech al Concord, New Hampshire We find 9
portion Of that characteristic speech, IN the Boston
Wing, from: which we copy the following graphic
portrait which MIR. @. draws of his Wing associ
ates. 1t looks straight into the faces and secret
workings ofhis Whig brethren. 1t pictures them
out in flames Of living Light: .-.
u Those Wings, fsays Mr. Gddings,)
who have got up this movement in favor Of General
Taylor, knowing him to be in favor Of extending
slavery, are men of desperate political fortunes,
who have become anxiuus 10 share in the spois of
Office; they arc men who would sell their party
their country and their God for an ephemeral sue
cess; TO enable them to bask in the sunshine Of
Executive favor. They have moderated The intel
figence Of the people, They believe the masses
to be as politically corrupt as those who seek 10
mislead them. Time will demonstrate their error"
What say you, neighbors of tho Express, the
Courier and Enquirer, The Tribune, the Albany
Evening Journal, the Troy Post, his Excelency
Gov. Young, and their Wing colleagues, who
q have got up this movement in favor of Gen.
TaylorW What say the Wings of other portions
OF the Union, who have been attempting the same,
TO this accusation Can it be possible that they
are all "mcn of desperate political fortunes, who
have become so anxious to share in the spoils Of
office" that they would sell their party, their
country. and their God, for an ephemeral success,
Or TO enable them 10 bask in the sunshine of Ex-
ecntive favor2
And yet such is the graphic picture drawn OF
h"se mon By one Of their o,0n party-one who
las enjoyed and who still enjoys The confidence Of

gree. Can any Whig deny lhis2 Mr.. Giddings

Wake County.

Below we lay before our readers the vote poll
ed in Wake County, on Thursday last, for the
Candidates for Congress in this District The
Wings rallied in all portions of the County on
Mr. Arlington, and generally gave him The sup
port, while Gen. Daniel received the usual Demo
cratic majority. Wake County always votes
right; and if the other Counties in the District
especially Edgecomb and Nash-had done as
well, Gen. Daniels majority would have ranged
between two and three thousand. The following

District formerly represented in Congress by Gen.
Dromgoole, who defeated MIR, Boiling at The re-

Mr.. Meade has achieved triumph, Of whichIthe
Republicans of the Petersburg District may well
be proud Much better would it have been; for
the honor and interests of Virginia, if John M.

Tile french Budget There has, for many
years, been most extraordinary increase in the
expenses of the French government. Napoleon,
when his empire included all Holland, part of
Germany and Italy and contained 43 600 900 of
subjects, managed his affairs with an annual reve-
nue. of 700.000,o00 OF francs. The Boulbons,
after they returned, in 1915, soon run it up 10
l.000000.000 of francs, but then, they had to pay
of The contributions levied by the allies, and in-
demnify the emigrants, for their confscated es-
thtcs. The expenses however, after they had
done all this still continued to increase and new
loans. from time to time, added to the debt and
when they were expelled in 1880 the budget was
upwards 1, 100000 600 of fiancs or more than 200
millions of dollars Since then il has continued
steadily and annually to increase and we now
perceive that the budget for lS4S amounts to the
enormous sum of l,544,O73 627 francs, or three
hundred millions of dollars. The English budget
is about esq, 600, 600 ster Iing-the above French
budget E62 900, ,OO0-under Napoleon. estimating o
his subjects at 43 millions, the budget was about
sixteen francs each--under the Bourbons, with 80
mill of subjects. it was about thirty.five francs
each; and under Louis Philippe, with 35 mil.
lions OF people, it is about forty-lhree francs-be-
ing upwards of eight dollars each The people
OF the United States are taxed by the general gov
ernment, only about one dollar and fifty CENTS
each; besides which, however, they pay State
taxes, which, in many States. is even more than
the amount paid to the national treasury "G-o,j

"PERFEcIIoxIsrs."--W received last week
for publication, the proceedings of public meet
ing Of the inhabitants of Putney, relative TO an
Association in that place calling themselves
" Perfectionisis." The length of the Presidents
Message precluded even notice Of them last
week and we have in the meantime sought for
information on the subject. We learn that,
through the instrumcntality of respectable
friends of members Of that community, and by
the force of public opinion, the Association is
mostly broken up, and that those not belong
ing TO Putney have left. We are also assured,
that friends of some of these deluded people arc
earnestly endeayoring to dissolve entirely the
Association, and believe they have, or will i'm
mediaiely accomplish it
Under this state Of things, NC have concluded
to withhold the publication this week, and wait
for further information. We most cordially par-
aeiPaie IN the sentiments and indignant feelings
expressed by the meeting. tits almost incrcdi-
BILE, that in this intelligent community, people
can be found 50 dcluded, or 50 shameless, as
boldly to avow and practice the doctrines attri-
butcd TO this sect; and we should be much more
amazed if they were for a moment tolerated or
suffered to exist We are only surprised, that
the citizens of Putney have exercised 50 much
iorbcarance and moderation, and have not soon
er eStipaied 50 disgrneeful an outrage upon so
eiety and moral and statute law We forbear
the publication this week, to give those inter
e'ted an opportunity to apply the corrective,
and tins prevent apublic exposure; but IL their
efforts shall not avail, we shall feel It duty to
publish these, and any other proceedings, calcu-
lated to effect the object. a..s
