REMARKS OF MIR. FLEMING.

Delivered in the House of Commons on Mr.. Bridg-
es' Resolutions in relation to the North Carolina
Rail Road. =
Mr.. SPEAKER: shall certainly not be guilty of the
presumption of attempting 10 infict speech on this
House after the able. eloquent, and re-
marks just delivered by my honorable friend from
Wake Sir if respect for the House and the gallery did
not prevent respect for myself would prohibit me from
aspiring to the unenyiable distinction of contrasting
any thing might say with the mastery effort which
has extorted so much applause from both members
and lobby. But trust the gentleman from Wake
will permit me to relieve him from all forebodinps
in my quarter. He has intimated that his remarks
and his position this Internal Improvement oues-
ton mas caused all the thrusfs come from his DO
ltcal friends, whose banner he has borne from the
seaboard to the mountains. / can only say to that
gentleman that he has nothing fear from the De-
mocracy of the great Western Reserve. They have
authorized me to say to him, that ass-7,ountain De-
nocracy repudates that though his old friend
from Chatham may have deserted him, recruits are
coming in by thousands-the energy and patriotism
of the country rallying to his standard. And
that though the gentleman from Berthe would insult
us with our beggary and poverty, have only to say
II poor IN property we not poor in honor IL re.
Pudiation must come it viii never come from the
Western Democracy; the East must commit that sin.
Those mountains which in war have poured forth
their legions TO defend their countrys fag will do
the same in peace to defend her honor. will eo
farther, and assume the responsibility of answering
for my Wing friends of District and saw that NO
repudiating voice, either Wing or Democrat will
there be found to tarnish the fair escufcheon of North
Carolina.

MR.. SEDDON's SPEECH.

We have read with increased admiration for the
talents and patriotism of its author the speech of the
Hon. James A. Seldom, of the Richmond District,
Virginia, delivered in the House of Representatives
the 23d of last month, the Presidents Cafor-
mia Message, communicated in reply to Mr.. Venable's
Resolution. Mr.. Seldom shows that the Southern
States have been thus far completely cut off from all
participation in the affairs of California by the action
of the President; that the President has assumed
settle judicial question, in prcclaming the Mexican
law abolishing Slavery still in existence in that Ter
rtory and that the action of the present Admnista
ton in this whole matter is totally variant from that
of President Polk. There other important points
which handled in this speech with the best tenn
per and in the most orcible manner. We shall lay it
before our readers soon make room for it.
By the way, how does it happen that Southern
Whig papers are so cordial and unanimous in their
approval of Gen. Taylor's conduct in this matter
Have they reflected upon it sufficiently! Haze they
examined the documents? 1t is strange indeed that
what should meet the warm appreciation on this SUBJ
ject of the New York Tribune, the Albany Evening
Journal. and the New York Express, should also be
commended by the Raleigh STAR the Raleigh Register,
and other prints we might name. We hope friend
Of the STAR at least, will review his opinion and we
respectfully ask him to read the accompanying doou-
ments carefully, together with Mr.. Seddons Speech.
The North-Carolina standard., 1850-02-06

At the commencement of the session of Congress,
there was some curiosity among all parties to discover
the course which Mr.. Clay would pursue with res
pect to the present administration. Much, it was
supposed, depended on his intention with respect to
being candidate for the Presidency in 1852. 1t is
now pretty generally understood that he will be a
candidate. His trends will. learn, run him. NOM
inaton no nomination. Messrs. Clayton, Ewing,
Seward, ct i'd genus, will strive to defeat him.
He must be fully aware Of this movement, and he
will owe them no good will. little incident oc-
Cured the other day in the Senate, indicating his
feelings. In rising to make few remarks in reply
to Mr. Douglas, of Illinois, and Mr.. Truman Smith,
of Connecticut, in the debate in which Smith came
out the secret keeper of the administration. he
sneered at Smiths assumption of authority TO speak
for the President and cabinet, by the remark that the
senator from Connecticut had the Advantage Of size
the senator from Illinois, but the latter had the
advantage of POSITION, and that he disposed
to interfere between them. We regard the scene as
significant Of his opinion that the championship Of
the powers that be was no very envinble position.
