The wings comfort themselves with the reflection
that ee-soilers voted the democratic ticket in Ohio
and Pennsylvania Perhaps some did so vote in Ohio;
but it is not at all likely, when they had candidate
of their own to vote for. We, however, should not
be surprised if the democratic party suffered good
deal from imputations of this kind.
The name democracy is popnlar-made so by the
good behavior ard of the party that has won
it. Hence designing men and factionists will as
sumo the name, and perhaps occasionally vote the
democratic ticket in order enhance their credit and
strengthen them to do mischief These freesoiIers in
States style themselves the free democracy and
the wings in New York call themselves democratic
wings.
No faction will call itself the free whigpery, or
assume the name of whiggish democrats. So far
from it. wing candidate for the presidency had to
assure the people of the United States that he was
not an ultra rh.g.
No faction can expect TO win popular favor by an
odor of whiggery; and demagogues, such as Chase
and Wilmot, will shun all suspicion of a connexion
with a run down party. They see which way the
current flows, and want to be in the crowd for the
sake of the sPoils.
We shall not be at all surprised if the democratic
party charged with being aided and assisted by
whigs-even making a coalition with wings defeat
the faithful of the universal party.
Such is the misfortune of being popular. Rogues
will attach themselves to the crowd keep up their
own credit.
Besides, even honest men who differ with the de-
mocratic party will conclude that they had as we'll
give it up, and let the progressive, go-ahead party
take the helm they have almost always had, mas
much nothing goes right in the hands OF their op-
ponents. Louisville Democrat.

rHE "NORTH CAROLINA READER"

Mr.. HOLDEN Since your notice OF the g North
Carolina Reader" by G. Fl. Wiley, others have had
the opportunity of looking into the work and hear
but opinion expressed as 10 its merits and that
in terms Of commentator. The design Of the author
is such as secure the appreciation of all persons
who feel interest in the history of the State and
who desire its youth accurately instructed as
regards its early settlement, well in relation to
our present condition. This Information Mr. Wiley s
book is calculated give. Its &c Lessons not
only useful to the young reader, but others will ind
its facts and matter of value.
There are few errors to dates, &C.; but these
will hereafter be detected when he shall be sufficient
" encouraged to issue second edition.
Mr.. Wiley is the first native author who has done
Justice the State in particulars which 9th
ers, following Williamson and Martin, have greatly
erred. He has not painted 'one Culpepper" as
culprit Sc who had fed from an adjoining Colony to
escape the gibbet for his attempts to cause the poor
plumber the rich -; has he discovered in those
who fell at the battle of Alamance traitors and reb-
els because they first successfully resisted attempt
collect a heavy tax on Tobacco. which the Prime
Minister of the mother country forced acknowl
edge imposed without authority; because they
endeavored to resist oppressive tax, in the collec
ton of which the greatest frauds and exactions were
practiced by the officers of the day. But, with the
intelligent author of the Life of Greene he has rather
chosen consider these I" miniature revolutions as
involving the principles, in 1867 and 1885, as
that g of the small tax the consumption of tea
which led to the great revolution of I776 "a view
which has been adopted by Mr.. Bancroft in his val
| liable History Of the Upited States. These are moi
tire only in which the truth of history should
be indicated. But my State feelings leading me
too far, my object being at present only to call the
attention of the public to this valuable little work Of
Mr.. Wiley, which should be in every family, as
trust it will be, in due time, in every primary School
in the State. trust it will not be long before the
Literary Board shall be authorized to procure full
supply for the of our Common Schools. S.

SOUTHERN PLANTERS CONVENTION. This conven-
tion which met at Macon, Georgia, the 2sth ult,
adjourned on the 31st. Resolutions adopted
recommending the establishment of Central, State
and County Associations, for the purpose of collect
ing statistical and general information in regard
the production and consumption of cotton. A COM
mite also appointed to procure the passage of
such acts of incorporation as may be deemed necessa
ry to promote the interest of the planters; but with
the understanding that the action of this Convention
in reference to the Of charters be not in

mode of operation. Other resolutions were adopted
declaring the expediency of using the utmost exer

slave labor in their factories. Also, urging the hold

lie attention to the importance of the subiect-and
enforcing The necessity Disappointing lecturers
vass the cotton-growing country. There was little
harmony of views among those present. and various
propositions TO provide against the fluctuations of the
prices of cotton rejected. The proposition to
organise association with the capital of $50 OOO,
900, violently opposed, as also one that
than ;wothrds of the crop should be sold before the
LIST of May, and for not less than eight pound
and that the remaining third should be sold at a
time to be recommended by the Central Committee.
That such inpracticable schemes should be thrown
aside, was matter of course.

The invaders and revolutionists had attacked the

Two large fires had taken place in the town dur

FEDERAL FALsEHooD. The North State Wing,
published away down somewhere among the frog
ponds in its issue of the 18th inst, has the follow
ing:
"BEAR IN MIND, That the Raleigh Standard, the
organ of the IS Raleigh Clique which rules the
Democratic party in North Carolina, contends that
Secession is Of the CARDINAL PRINCIPLES in the
Democratic faith.''
Now, we have heard great deal about this g Rail
egh Clque,' and it has been iterated and reiterated
by the discounted whig party time and again. the
ly object for which, it to Us, is just to keep its
hand in at vociferating fasehood. The Raleigh
Clique! indeed. And who are they, and what nigh
ty engine have they in operation that enables them
rule the democratic party in North Carolina 20
One would think that the expression stale,
demagoguical, that any man or respectable newspa-
per would be ashamed to utter or publish it, We
suppose that if any two democrats in the streets or
elsewhere in Raleigh were to be heard accidentally
speaking of the prospects Of the party saying
thing in its behalf. defending its principles plan
ming its success, that they are Clique. Democrats
may not say anything for themselves in Raleigh
AS for any clique in Raleigh governing the DEM
ocratic Party of the State why that's great big -
no-such-a-thing and, moreover, We don't give those
who it, credit fol- than half believing it

SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE. A reliable friend de-
tailed recently the editor of the Memphis Enquirer
the following singular and interesting occurrence:
" Since the commencement of the term of the Cir
cult Court for County, it became necessary for
Merriweather, brother of the gentleman some time
since murdered in county, to attend prosecutor
of Peterson, the perpetator of the horrible crime 1t
happened that he rode the horse that his deceased
brother riding the day of his murder by Pet
eIson. He was in the company of some friends, and
travelled the road. The horse is very fine spi-
rted bay, docile in temper, and with intelligent
eye. When they approached near the scene of the
murder, the horse manifested evident signs of alarm
and restlessness. Observing the singular conduct of
the horse, Merriweather determined to give him the
rein, and watch his movements. AS he approached
the spot of the MURDER he elevated his head and
tail and appeared to be watchful, and frequently
ed that snort peculiar to spirited horses when ap
prehensive of danger. The noble animal finally
sme the ground and trailed the which the bo-
dy of his former master had been conveyed by his
murderer. He finally reached the spot, smelt the
ground and paved and snorted. He then took cir
Gle in the woods at moderate trot, returned the
place where the body was found, and repeated the
ceremony. This he did several times in
ion. And when refined up il was with great reluctance
that he forced leave the place. Is this instinct
reason, what is it! We have the facts from a
well informed and entirely reliable We should
like to have philosophical solution of this remark
