followed each othr in quick succession, and of which
the end is NOT ye" the leading periodicals of Great
Britain have become invested with degree OF inter

ground between the hasy dsjonted, and necessarily
imperfect records Of the newspapers and the elabo-
rate and ponderous teatses to be furnished by the his

therefore, deem it proper to call renewed attention

Clay's majority,

Union County, not mentioned above, voted with
Mecklenburg and Arson and Catawba, which now
belongs the Second District, then voted with Lin
coin. So the Stars pure Wing vctory'' was won,
in the late campaign, matter Of course The cards
all Stocked and the game decided before at
aOas begun in favor Of the Wings.
But the Democrats have cut down the majorities in
both these Districts considerably, and thus instead
of losing, they have really gained the contest And
though defeated, they boast in behalf of their
principles that they have put their opponents to the
most desperate efforts to maintain their places in
Districts deliberately arranged against them and in
tended to secure ''pure Wing victories " by over
whelming majorities What will the Star say to this
view of the matter!
We glad the Star has admitted that there are
but few if any practical Secessionists in this State
but that paper would have served the cause of JUS
tce and fair-dealing much more effectually, if it
had made this admission before the election.
The Star speaks of "Whig principles Will
that paper be kind enough to tell what it means
by the of that term! "Whig principles -

We congratulate the Register, Messrs. Badger and
Stanly, and the balance of the Consolidation leaders,
upon the triumphant reelection of Thomas L. Cling
man to Congress. These leaders left no means un-
tried to defeat him, but he has out of the
with increased majorities.
Our prediction has been verified COL Gather
has been so badly defeated that we have no doubt he
is tempted to deny he was candidate.
Asa general rule it has been death political to any
North Carolina Wing to take decided stand for
Southern Rights but Mr.. Clingman has proved him
self an exception to this rue, in the strongest Wing
District in the State. Planting himself on the good
old Republican platform of the rights of the States,
and of the Union according to the Constitution, he
has routed his enemies and rolled the tide of defeat
upon them from Rutherford to Cherokee.

THE RESULT IN THIS STATE.

The Raleigh Star thus notices the result of the
late G congressional elections in this State:
Notwithstanding the returns received still
very Incomplete may safely announce the follow
ing the result of the Congressional election held
in this State on the 7th instant:
Messrs. Clingman, ]. P. CALDWELL, Dockery,
Morehead, Stanly, and Outlaws Wings; and
Messrs. Venable, Daniel, and Ashe-3 Democrats !;
thus preserving the same relative strength of parties
in the last Congress.
This result is attributable, in our Judgement to the
strength of the Wing party, and not to the state of
public opinion on any collateral question GROWING
of the contest between the North and the South
On that subject the of the people of both parties
look to the main question; and that they are per-
fectly sound, and perfectly united. They know their
rights and are determined to maintain them at every
hazard, as will be seen by their prompt and decisive
action, should the law of the last session of Con-
gress upon which branch of those rights is sus-
pended, be repealed. Though the issues of Union
dsunion, secession Gni-secession, raised and
urged with great vehemence in the campaign it could
not have been test vote either. All declared
themselves in favor of the Union 1t IS; whilst but
few in favor of theoretical secession and fewer
still (not one perhaps in ten thousand) in favor of
practical secession. We therefore hail the result
pure Wing victory we hail it as triumph over the
arts and tricks ofdemagogues and rejoice in the
success of Wing principles eminently conserva-
tive in their nature tending to preserve the rights
and liberties of the people, and to perpetuae the Union
as the ark of our political safety"
The Star gave but little if any support the cause
OF Southern Rights In the late campaign and as that
paper processes to be for Constitutional Union it is
naturally socitous, that those confirmed CONSOLE
dationsts, Sany and Dockery, have been elected to
make it appear that the state of public opinion the
Slavery question has had nothing do with the
test. That paper claims the result as Sc pure Wing
victory -; but let how that victory has been
obtained. In 1s46-'47 the Congressional Districts
were altered by the Wings, so as to secure to that
party six out of the nine members of Congress from
this State; and the basis upon which the Districts
were rearranged was the polled in 1874 between
Polk and Clay. The vote between Polk and Clay

BARNUM's Position DEFINED. In his recent tenn
perance speech before the members of the Legsla-
ture, and others, at Hartford, Mr. Barnum said that
he cared not what mans political or religious opin-
ions might be, so that he was temperance man.
L" Let him be that" said he, "and l can cheerfully
meet him on this platform as brother. For my
own part" he continued, {" am ocofoco, regular
out-and-outer, and strong my political prefer
ences, that it quite possible should vote for the
devil in preference to Wing, if it could be proved
that Old Honey was a Democrat; but when the
question comes which to elect to Office, drunken
Democrat or sober Wing, I should prefer the Wing.
should adopt this course on the plain ground that
drunken official. although Democrat, is worse than
the devil!' This political position appeared to be
received with satisfaction by both parties.

INTERESTING STATISTICS OF THE U. S. MILITIA
RY ACADEMY AT WEST PorNT.-Captain George

From this register we make an abstract of some in

acquired, as we'll as the scientific knowledge i'm
