The same paper spoke of the painful anxetvn
with which it was awaiting the action of the Con.
vention and in his paper of the 18th instant the E
tor, in raising the name of Gov Manly, inserts this
doleful and significant paragraph:
"Governor Manly has been re-nominated bv II.
Whlg Convention for reelection in August nexi."
This is all he says. He goes for Mr.. Manly with
evident reluctance, and makes attempt to conceal
the fact that nomination. could have been made
which would have been &" more unsatisfactory to the
Whigs'' Of the Edenton District. And yet the Reo
lister speaks of but one spirit" animating the Whp
journals, and endeavors to produce the impression
that Gov. Manly's nomination is generally accepta
bic to the Whig party!
The Buncumbe Dollar News of the 10Th instant.
declines to raise the name e Gov. Manly at its mast
head. and thus greets the nomination.:
s'In response to the nomination, Gov. Manly an.
peared before the Convention, and signifed his ac.
ceptance, by speech, in which he pledged himself
to carry out the platform laid down. We are anxious
his speech, and all the positions he takes
This platform he did we'll to adopt, as without it he
coudnot have secured the support Of the party .qs
Is, he has enough to do, to ,ensore the difficulties in

brief to day in our notice of the Convention, as we
are pressed for room. Next week we shall give
more extended notice of the Convention, and as we
will then, probably, have the Governors speech
before US, shall be able to speak UNDERSTANDING
ly on the subject
! The Mountain Banner, the organ of the Rutherford
Wings, also declines to raise the name of Gov. Man.
ly. That paper, weeks ago, solelmnly warned the
Central Whig Power against nominating him, and
declared in advance it would not support him. That
paper of the 4th instant, in replying to Commun
cation which had appeared in the Raleigh papers,
over the signature Of ;. Fair Play, +" in defence Of
Gov. Manly's course in relation to the Turnpike,
says: .'E~~
How any Governor of the State under these cir.
cumstances, could take upon himself duty not de.
volved upon him by law, and do such manifest nus.

actuated by improper motives, is strangely igno.

tirely beyond our comprehension. The Governor ap.

The same paper of the 18th instant, announces
Gox-Manly's nomination as follows:
"WHIe CONVENTION. This body met on the lo'h

The Editor of the Register exchanges with all
these papers, and knows well as any one how they
have been warning the Whig leaders against nOmf

clared that he is not acceptable the people in their

an extract. The Wings of Richmond, it appears
