THE WIG "GULL-TRAPn

We invite the attention. of Southern men 10 the
following article from the Pennsylvania:
"How GEN. ScoTT IS TO DODGE THE GREAT ISSUE
The abolition leaders of the Scott wings have at last
invented the which Gen. Scott is to give for
not pledging himself execute the ugitive-save law
and resist its repeal. We get it fresh from the
New York Tribune, the abest and most reckless of
the sectional organs. The editor and his conespon-
dents hold the same opinions; and this is the way
they preach them.
The editor says, in the Tribune of the 29th u., in
! reply to Mr.. Stephens, of Georgia:
" He tells US the constitution and laws must be
forced, but we have heard serious denial Of this
proposition. He says he will vote for President
who will not unqualifedly pledge himself in favor
of the fngitive.save law and every constitutional OBJ
ligalion.' Buta President swear to uphold and
execute all laws and constitutional obligations to the
extent of his power; and if he cannot trust Pres-
dents solemn Inauguration oath, how can he trust
mere candidates promise ="
On the Both ult., the endorsed correspondent of the
Tribune, writing from Washington, says:
s'The assaults upon Gen. Scott's position on these
measures are really wholly senseless, unless they
designed to extort from him the promise to e1er
else the veto power AS President he must see that
the existing laws executed, or PERU himself
And it is no part of his business to initiate laws, OF
influence their passage or prevent their passage. his
constitutional functions beg and end with their az
proval or disapproval."
The dodge is ingenious, but no more hdiscioSes
at the same time the game of the enemy and the peril
of the constitution. The question is not so much
whether Gen. Scott will obey law he is sworn 10
obey but whether, if the fugitiveslave law be repeal
ed by tie po,oer Of the free States in Congress \: will
use the ueto to the republic 1t is true the Tribune
indicates that pledge of this sort may be expected,
but it does in way that proves the utter emptiness
of its own guarantee that Scott will support the con!
stitution and the laws, if elected President. Is
not apparent that the movement of the northern agl
tators to nullfy TO repeal the fugltlVe-saVe law
Do not the evidences of this fact come upon Us from
every free State? The expressions OF legislatures
the arguments of the press, the DEGREES OF Puone
meetings, and the whole influence of fanatIcsm eh
erted in all its grades and shapes. prove an organic
ton looking this end. alike extensive and powerful
How resisfless popular cry against law constantly
and vehemently denounced may become atIas'' aoun,
dant experience shows. Let the aboitionsts achle1

blow at the constitution will be welded with power

A FRAUD UPON THE PEOPLE.

Inc raleigh Register persists IN keeping uhoer lIs
Editorial head the following Resolution
g ResOived, That regard the series of acts known
as the Is Adjustment measures forming, in their
mutual dependence and conne1ion, system OF COM
promise the most concatory and the best for the en-
tire country, that could be obtained from conflicting
sectional interests and opinions and that, therefore,
they ought to be adhered and carried into faithful
execution, final settlement, in princpeiand sub
stance, of the dangerous and exciting subjects which
they mbrace."-C Resolution Of Wing Congressional
Caucus, December 1, 1857
Now it is well known, and can be proved on Wing
authority, that the above Resolution adopted in
caucus by minority of the Wing members, mostly
from the slaveholding States; but aside from this,
the action of the Wings of the House this subject
and of the Wing Senators and Representatives in their
caucus of the 10th of April, coEclusively demon
strates that they opposed to the compromise
inality, and determined that endorsement of it
shall be had in the approaching Wing National Con-
vention.
When we say I" the compromise" mean, of
course, as the Register does, the fngtve-slave law
Well, let how the vote stood upon the passage
of this law through the House of Representatives.
In that body there 80 Democratic votes in favor
Of the bill, and only 81 Wing votes. In the mega
tive there 81 Wing votes, Is Democratic votes
and Freeso votes. OF the Wing vote, more than
t,Do to cast against this hw; while the Dem
ocratic vote stood 80 for and only against it. On
ly three Wings from the free States voted for this
law, while .tyty-seuen Wings from the same regior
voted against it. These facts from the record
which the Raleigh Register never has and never will
lay before its readers.
Again: On the 9Th of last April the House voted
Jacksons and Hillyers Resolutions. declaring thu
6 compromise y" a fnaty. Mr.. Jackson's Resolu
ton Uoted doaUn, far the vote went, by tn
Wing party of The House-that party, North ant
South, giving 81 votes in favor of 1t, and 81 agans
its and Mr. Hillyer's Resolution, in the hands of thu
same party, just escaped the fate receiving 81
Wing votes ia it's favor. and % against it. Only
seUen Wing members from the free States voted fo
Mr.. Jackson's Resolution, and ten for Mr.. Hiyer's
Again: In the Wing caucus held the 10th O
April the " compromise I" vOted do,On by voe q
46 to 81 3; whereupon Messrs. Outlaw of this State
and other Wing members from the South withdrew
We submit, therefore, that the Wing party of the
United States is against the " compromise - fl.
nality-the facts prove this to be the and
the contrary, endeavour leave impression
to the contrary the Raleigh Register is doing, is
to perpetrute fraud upon the people. Let that paper
if intends wishes deal honestly by its readers
take that Resolution from its columns but if it will
not do that let it publish underneath it the votes OF
the Wing members on Jackson's and Hilyer's Reso-
utions, and the official account of the caucus of the
10th of April.

THE REGISTER AND GOV. RE


The Registers low filings at Gov. Reid are almost
beneath the dignity of contempt; and we notice
them only that the people may and Judge for them
Selves what sort of organ the Wing leaders have
here at the centre.
In one number that paper says it " cannot be said
of the present incumbent that he eleva,es the
pride - of the State home her reputation
abroad -; and in another, the chief Magistrate is
spoken of as an " automaton - obeyng "the move
ment of the man that pulls the string" This is a
specimen, desire the people to know, of the Ian
guage habtually used towards Gov Reid by the Ra-
leigh Register.
Gov. Reds character public man needs no de-
fence at hands, Born to no inheritance either OF
property of arstocratc name he has made his way
slowly but surely, to his present proud position, by
the force of his own energies and talents his ner'ts
and the confidence which those merits won for him
at the hands of the people. have made him what he
is. A ne,v n,an-the first of his name to make his
mark upon the history of the times, and to attract to
himself the respect and affection of the people of
whole Commonwealth, it is natural that certain
class of the Federal party should question his title
Distinction and envy him the honors which cluster
on his path and it is also natural that the organs OF
the class to which we have referred, should seek to
plefse their employers by disappearing and abus-
ing him. and by attempts to cast ana rolcue
upon his services and character To all such we
have only to say, go on-Gov. Reid, we know, is
totally unmoved by these exhibitions OF malice and
envy-you are benefting him vastly more than you
are yourselves. Strong in his own integrity, and in
the love of generous people, whose champion he
is, he may we'll defy-no, not dgy-he may we'll
smile at such reports from the batteries of the
Raleigh Register.
Gov. Reid has borne himself well in the per-
formance of his duties, that his political opponents
haze not been able to bring the first charge against him
and the only specific charge of any sort which has
been preferred against him by any of the Wing Or
gans, was that by the Raleigh Register some time
since, to wit-that he in the habit of mngling
with his fellow citizens in the marketpace in Raleigh.
Yes, that was the charge. The Register grieved
the Governor of the State Lo,Ocring his office
and sinking his dignity, by going occasionally to
ket Such conduct offensive to the aristocratc
nosrils of the Registers and that paper complained
of it in which showed that its feelings had been
touched. We would advise the Register to cease its
talk about automatons" and all that, and go back
its old charge against the Governor of having gone
market for that charge has at least merit and
that is, IS true. If the Register will only do this,
its Editor will enjoy luxury to which he has long
been stranger, to wit-the luxury of making state
ment which every one will believe, and of riding,
booted and spurred, right top of charge, the
rectness and truth of which will dispute or
deny.

THE TWO-THIRDs RULE,

The statement of the correspondent of the WASH
ington Telegraph, published in last, that the two
thirds rule adopted at the suggestion Of Silas
tory of the rule is this :: The Convention of 1882
appointed Committee to report rules govern it's
action in making its nominations. In this Conven-
ton the question raised and discussed with some
feeling, as to what should be the rule of voting
whether the vote should be confined to the majority
States which had voted for Gen. Jackson in 1928,
whether the minority States which had voted against
him, should also be entitled to their full Electoral
vote-when a member from Pennsylvania, de-
ceased, proposed the wo-thirds rule compromise,
which adopted, and reported by Col. King as
Chairman of the Committee. This rule was inten-
ded to the majority States from nominations
against their wishes, which might have been effect
ed by combinations between portion of their own
strength and the minority States On being reported
from the Committee member from Massachusetts
moved to amend by inserting " a majority which
was carried; and then a motion was made and car
ried under the influence of Silas Wright, Dickinson,
and the amented Kane-a Senator from Illinois, who
had much Influence in the adoption of the rule as
any one-to reconsider the vote establishing the
majority" rule, and to adopt and adhere the
thirds rule. The rule again adopted by the
Conventions of 1886 and 1914, and the nominations
then made were carried by the DemocEaiic party.
These facts have been furnished us by gentleman
who was a member of the Convention in which the
rule originated, and also Of the Conventions of 1886
and 1914. 1t is good rule and ought to be adhered

The Tarborough Southerner, in article on the
subject of the late Wing Convention, says, with
much force: " Eastern men. both Wings and Demo-

that the {. Times" whose Editor sat in the Conven-
tion and who is the leader of the ee-conventon par
