A Tempest In q Teapot

The Union has for many day agonized over a
great and stupendous fraud Of most aoicked char
acter! The whole history of this fraud appears
to be that a little while after the proclamation of
Toombs, Stephens & Co., declaring that they
could not go for Gen. Scott, some wag, to bur-
lesque them, paraphrased their proclamation, and
signed the names of Truman Smith and other
well-known Wings to it. The point in it was,
that, as Toombs g. Co. had not acted with the
Wing party for years, their reasons for not going
for Scott were such as would have been given by
other Democrats; and the reasons given in the
article to which the name of Mr.. Smith and
others were attached, against voting for Pierce,
were such as would be urged by the Wings. 1t
was no doubt designed as joke, and laughed at as
such but the magnanimous Union does not scru-
pie to endeavor to produce the impression that it
was prodigious attempt at deception on the
part of those whose names were signed to it.
Those who do not acknowledge the Union tc
evince an astounding degree of stupidity, must
credit it with considerable amount of dis
honesty

North Carolina.

1t is with pleasure we learn that the Wings Of
the sold North State" are making preparations
to thoroughly organize and canvass the State.
Meetings are held nightly at Raleigh, and in
other important towns. Committees have been
appointed, to correspond with the executive COM
mittee at Raleigh, to see that the State is thor
oughly organized, and to distribute documents.
A mass convention Of the western counties is to
be held in Iredell county on the 9th and 10th Of
September. A committee of three, in each Of
the counties of Mecklenberg, Iredell, Union, Ca
barras, Stanley, Rowan, Davie, Surry, Yadkin
Alexander, Watauga, Ashe, CASTOR, Wilkes, Ca
tawba, Lincoln, Arson, Caldwell and Burke, has
been appointed, to make preparations and to en-.
gage speakers. The Raleigh Register of the
25th, in noticing the sizzling meetings in Boston
says: If our friends in Massachusetts, are in
earnest, we can assure them they are laborine
under most unaccountable delusion. If they
expect the Wings of North Carolina to assist in
defeating the nominee of the Baltimore Conven.
tion by uniting in factious opposition, they will
be disappointed. A Webster and Graham ticket
will not command 500 votes in this State.

Our Minister at Buenos Ayres.

Mr.. Pentleton, the American Minister at Bue-
nos Ayres, it appears, lately interceded with Gen.
Urquiza on behalf of DR.. Alsina and family, who
had been ordered to leave the country on notice
of twenty-four hours. The letter of Mr.. Pendle-
ton was written in touching style, and was so
effective that Gen. Urquiza Immediately revoked
the sentence of Punishment, and not only permit
ten Alsina to remain in the country, but also
eral others who had likewise been sentenced to
Punishment. Mr.. P. did not intercede in his of.
fetal capacity, but as personal friend of Ur-

mr.. webster,s Departure.

Mr.. Webster left this city yesterday afternoon
for his home in New Hampshire, where he expects
to remain for two months or longer. A gentle
man who conversed with Mr.. W. before his de-
parture, assures us that he has wholly withdrawn
his attention from the political incidents of the
day, and that he is altogether indifferent to the
subject. Mr.. Webster is accompanied on his pre-
sent journey by our esteemed young friend, Mr..
Pratt, of the State Department, his usual COM
pagnon de Voyage and secretary, Mr.. Lanman, be-
ing detained in this city by engagements Of a
private nature. Mr.. Webster has our hearty good
wishes for an escape from his usual autumnal ca
tarrh, and from any other indisposition, either
physical or political, that may possibly affiict
him. He has yet to complete long and bright
passage in the history Of the century in which
he lives. May its termination be as honorable to
himself as its course has been useful, profitable,
and honorable to his country.

This is the title Of paper by Henry O. Carey
in the Plow, the Loom and the Anvil for Sep
TENDER. The New York Tribune has republished
it in pamphlet form for general distribution. The
Tribune earnestly commends it to the perusal Of
the friends Of Scott and Graham Though writ
ten with no reference to such service, it believes
no document more pertinent and convincing has
been issued during the present canvass 1t is a
lucid and narrowing picture of the miseries
brought upon the people of Ireland by the over
throw of the protection formerly accorded by
Irish Pariaments to their own manufacturing in
dustry, and the subsequent subordination Of their
trade and manufactures to those of England by
British legislation and British free trade. The
conclusions thus reached are not original with
Mr. Carey, but are based on and fortified by ex-
tracts from the writings Of O'Connell, Meagher,
and other eminent Irish patriots 1t does seem
to us impossible, Greeley continues, that men can
read this record-much of it resting on facts to
which Irishmen in this country can bear personal
testimony-and not insist on the protection of
home industry. 1t must produce a powerful eff

"STEALING THUNDER" THE late Democratic
State Convention of Michigan gravely adopted
resolutions acknowledging the liberal and judi

vor of harbor appropriations and condemning
the course Of Wing members of Congress against

If the river and lake States vote for General
Pierce as the friend of navigation improvements
if Pennsylvania supports him because of his
protective principles-if the South supports
him because of his pro-slayery convictions-then
will the competency of men for self-government
be fully and fairly tested. They have oil given
partial evidence of the kind heretofore, but that
was the first time. 1t is said that only fool

The letter of Gov. Graham, declining the nom
nation of Vice President on the Webster ticket
in North Carolina, the Richmond Republican re-
Marks is worthy of the man, and Of the great
Wing cause, Of which he is bright and shining
ornament. His testimony in relation to General
Scott's position on the Compromise question, is
honorable to himself and to that illustrious hero
and will satisfy all candid Southern Wings,
who have not prematurely and irretrieyably
committed themselves to an attitude Of hostility
to Gen. Scott, that there is no sounder man on
the Compromise in the whole Union than the
Wing candidate for the Presidency. Gov. Ora
ham, the acknowledged friend from first to last
of the measures of adjustment declares that
Gen. Scott was equally jealous and more inlu-
entiap' than himself in supporting this national
pacifcation in its hour of trial"
