MORE DECEPTION AND RASCALlTYl
The Goldsborough Telegraph says that David
S. Reid never did days work in his ifs but is a
wealthy anistocnt, and never keeps company with
the hard6sted people Of the State" This is dirty
falsehood, and Alston knew it when he penned 1t,
or copied it from the Times. The same paper con-
tains not less than one hundred infamous fasehoods
and SANDERS against David S. Reid; and in addi-
on to this the Editor copies from the Greensborough
Patriot the account Of the discussion at Salem be-
tween Col. Reid and Gov. Manly, and deliberately
sppresses and keeps back all that part 1t 'ohieh re-
ates to tie School Fund and tie basis Of representa-
tion in tie Legislature! The Raleigh Star is the
only Eastern Wing paper, thus far, which has had
[ the honesty 10 publish the entire account.
That vile concern, the Raleigh Times, (Which BY
the way, we seldom notce,) also copies portion Of
the same account, and sppres.e. and keeps back as
the Telegraph has done. all that part 9 1t ,oh;eA

LATER FROM HAVANA.

The United States mail steamship Georgia, Capt.
Porter arrived at her dock at an early hour Monday
morning. She left Chagres at p. the 26,h
of June, and arrived at Havana at twenty minutes
past o'clock, p. M, on the Both.
The Georgia left Havana on the 4th Of July, at
$50 a.. M, and made her to New York in three
days, II hours. Commodore Mckeever had an inter-
view with the Captain General, and was extremely
satisfied with the result of it, the Count Alcoy giving
every assurance that the prisoners would soon be lib
Grated, and harmony restored. The prisoners are at
present under the control Of Admiral Armero, who
will give information in regard to them, and diff.
ers entirely in his views from the Captain General.
An investigation has taken place, and the Captain
General Is of opinion that many Of the passengers
entirely innocent Of any intention Of dsembarking
Cuba, but were under the impression that they were
bound to Chagres. Admiral Armero is in favor of the
harshest measures, and, 1t is said, has treated the
prisoners with great cruelty. report was circula-
ted, previous the sailing Of the Georgia, that nine
ment prevails against Americans generally-more so
since the news of the burning of the steamer Qua
delquiver arrived in Havana.
1tis generally considered to have been done on pur-
pose, as act Of retaliation. There is also great
citement against the American consul, Mr. Campbell
on account of some letters he wrote to the United
States Department, rejecting, Tin the opinion Of the
Spaniards,) on their navy and militia. The consul
is obliged to keep his house fortified and ready any
moment to repel and attack. He has been threaten
ed with assassination in anonymous letters and does
not consider his life, anG that of his family, safe
The consul takes the ground that the capture of the
two vessels an illegal act, in which he is suppor
; ted by all foreigners and Americans in Havana.
! The Spaniards are assembling large naval force
at Havana. Three frigates and two briggs have JUS
arrived from Spain to Join the squadron of Admiral
Armero. The Catalan party, at the head Of whom
is Admiral Armero, are strongly in favor of war
In the mean time the volunteers are drilling daily
and amount now to FIVE hundred men.

Foul CuAReE.-Mr. REID charges Gov. MANLY,
in his Address the People of the State, with hav-
Ing been a Federalist in the last War!
We cannot mince words in the face of such auda-
city. We pronounce the above charge, by whomso-
ever uttered, to be miserabIy FALSE! Reeister.
1t is useless for the Register to deny the fact.
Mr.. Manly has himself admitted that he was Feder
alist during the with England, and that he was
called to stand draft but told the officer he would
not attend. He says he was but fourteen years of
age when the war begun. Now, we have been in
formed BY two of as respectable citizens as Wake
County boast, that they remember the fact per-
fsctly well, that Gov. Manly Federalist during
the war with England; and one Of them u heard
him make speech, before Literary Society in this
City, in 1912 or 1el3 in sohieh he deplored tie ,car,
denounced Mr.. Madison and .pokeef the bones Of Our
eountrymen ,uho had fallen in that sOar, bleaching
the plain, Of Canada! "a Surely he was more than
fourteen years of age at that time.
The fact is, Mr.. Manly has always been FEEDER
alist. He opposed to the Mexican war, as he
was to the war with England; and he calls himself
Wing, as other Whig leaders do, because the name
OF Federalist had become odious, and because the
title Of Whg is popular. In this, as in other poti-
cal movements Of his, Mr.. Manly looks entirely to
his own promotion and aggrandizement, without refA
erence to candor OF fair-dealing He has good ally
and baeker in the Register That paper seems to de-
vote its whole energies to the work Of msrepresen-
taon, evasion, and double-dealing. Instead of in
forming the people, and placing its principles has it
any before them, it cloaks and conceas, and con-
ducts itself just If fasehood and deception and
nothing else, were expected at is bands.

ator in Congress from N. W in reply to one ad-
dressed to him by distinguished citizen Of Ken

"The popular system with us has exceeded the ex-
pectation OF its most sanguine friends, and
venture to say will ever propose to disturb it so long
as free government remains to 1t has moved a
mountain of prejudice from judicial proceedings and
substituted an active sympathy between the people

and subjected the whole system the healthful i'm

KEEP 1T BEFORE THE PEOPLE,!

The following is an extract from COL Red's re-
cen. Address to the people Of North Carolina:
What is the dearest privilege Of American citi-
zen! 1t is exercise the great and inestmabe right
of suffrage. In advocating this reform do not now,
nor have any me proposed to change the basis OF
Representation for either the Senate or House OF CON-
MONS Let that remain it is. What propose Is,
to permit erery Who IS no,r entitled to cote t the
Commons, to cote also for the Senate.
Our basis of Representation for one branch
Of the ature is taxation for the other it is federal
population. The Aboionsts at the North wish to des-
troy the basis of federal population upon which we are
represented in Congress regard their course on the
subject as misehievous and dangerous and should re-
gard similar movement in relation TO our representa-
ton in the Legislature, aught with equal mischief and
danger"
We copy the following from the Greensborough
Patriot, WAig paper. The extract is from an ac-
count in that paper of the discussion at Salem be-
tween Messrs. Reid and Manly; and this account,
published at length, may be found in the Raleigh
Star of the 10th instant:
Gov Manly then commenced a review Of the public
acts of Col Reid by calling the attention of the auditory
to his fCol Rcid) in the State Legislature the
bill establishing Common Schools. He gave brief his
tory OF the origin and oect of this School fund He said
the fund created school the white children OF the
State and particularly the poor and ignorant portion that
the COL Reid had been to divert it from this
purpose and had been in part the means OF this fund be-
ing divided among the Counties according federal num-
hsrs instead of being divided according to white pop
uaon, Us should haze been done That by these votes
Of COL Reds the West had thousands of dollars
nuaIy and thus the ,ceahy sIarehoding counties Of
the East, where they able to send their children
abroad to school, received undue proportion y the
School fund. .s
He next showed up to the satisfaction of all Col Reds
hobby of free suffrage that if the privilege of voting
for Senators was allowed to every man now entitled to
vote for a member of the House of Commons it would
not COL Reid contends, equaize the right OF suffrage
For illustration The county of Onslow, with 500 voters
entitled to Senator while the counties of Wilkes
CALDWELL Burke and Mcdowell, with 1000 voters, are
only entitled Senator. This is glorious reform
indeed Yet Reid opposed to any change in the basis
Of representation to remedy this CROSS iNJCS7,
