From the Raleigh IN. C.l Standard,
An Abolition Outrage.

A friend in Ashe County Of higl
character and whose statement:
may be implicitly relied on, ha:
communicated to US for publication
an account of an Abolition outrage
which recently took place in Gray
son County, Ma, near ii lc North
Carolina liie.
1t seems that Crooks aud Bacon
have been preaching their Abolition
doctrine in Grayson County, fos
some time past, and have convert
ed to their doctrina and pressed
into their service sdreral citizens
Of that County. They at length
succeeded in forming d company
OF slaves, to desert their masters
and escape TO a free State. The
plot appears 70 have been pretty
extensive, though only four negro
men met at The time and place ap-
pointed, who were armed with
sythe blades, clubs, and dirk knives.
They were discoyered in their
camp, and sufroupddd rby six or
eight men, VIII D attempted 10 arrest
then. In the struggle thatensued
one gentleman by the name of
Bartlett, (br6ther tothe Sheriff OF
Ashe,) was Instantly killed by a blow
with a sythe blade, which cleft his
head quite open. Another gentIo>-
man received cash in the head,
the weapon penetrating through the
skull into the brain. Two other
gentlemen were seriously wounded,
one Of whom received a stab in tie
back of the neck, which greatly
his life. Two Of the
negroes. we learn, have been ap-
pretended, aud an efIrrt is being
made to secure d the other two, as
well as some white villains who are
to be the instigators Of
lie outrage. mo one doubts, ''adds
The correspondent, ''that this out
rase is the legitimate result Of the
reaching OF Bacon and his com
rade; if they are allowed to remain
lmong us, we may expect a repeti-
ion of similar scenes "
Bacon and Crooks, our re aders
yih remember, are the men who
we're driven iIpm Gtilford BY the |
determined behring Of the citizens
# that and ihF surrounding couh-
les. We had hoped that they had .

The subioned, taken from the Mobile Advertiser OF
pending elections in Mississippi democrats. This
circumstance corIoboates the general view we have
taken of the state of parties in the South affected by
the Compromise, and shows that The wings could moi
head the great movement which is in progress TO make
the South unit in the effort to the certain
ton OF the ugi,veslave law. AS party, the wings OF
the South up TO the election OF ls4s, had incurred the
responsibility OF defeating the democratic candidates fol
the presidency who would have administered the federal
government in such to have rendered
cessary any Compromise at all This party in the South
had in truth to share the judgment passed upon it,
as whole, by Mr. Webster in his Abingdon speech in
ls4s when he declared that it e-sol party in
everything but name. Hence the necessity under which
it has been placed in the South Of confding the demo-
Gratis not only the conduct of the Union movement but
of tina, also which is founded in the fear that under
that sacred the old principles of democracy may
suffer some damage-not because there is disunion in
those principles, but because il involves organza
ton, and wthdraws for the moment the supremacy o.
old party tests:
