~ The Greensborough Patriot does not meet the
statements of our Greensborough Correspondent. 1t
endeavors in the first place, to show that MI Kerr
admitted by his silence, when Gov. Reid spoke of
the fact, that he with Gov. Reid the subject
of the School Fund but the Patriot does not tell the
tOhoE TRUTH because it omts to say, that in Speech
of two hours in length Mr. Kerr aoas profoundly Sc
lent in relation 10 that Fund. There's the rub. The
Patriot knew that Mr.. Kerr had boosted, in the East,
that he for the present basis, and for dividing
this fund according to Federal population; and yet
when Mr. Kerr is silent, TN the Vest, on this very
subject and exposed therefor, the Patriot has the
audacty to denounce those who have thus exposed
him as guilty OF " abominable falsehood -! Truly
John Kerr and the Scot-Seward cause must be in a
very bad way when such paper as the Patriot is
driven such conduct.
The Patriot, in its attempted defence of Mr.. Kerr
against the statements of our Correspondent, evil

too in what the Register characerzes its prompt
and fearless article. But Mr.. Kerr, as the Regis

Neither does the Patriot, in this attempted defence,
which may be found in the Register of the 18th,
disagree materially with Correspondent in rela-
ton to Mr.. Kerrs notions about the power of bare
majorities.
The Patriot is evidently vexed. The duplicity of
its candidate has been exposed and it is sorahy. 1t
is firmly convinced that something must be done /;
and it strikes about at its adversares like blind

@LOOK OUTER

We feel it to be duty to caution the people, and
especially the friends of Gov Reid of both parties
against the falsehoods and ISLANDERS which will no
doubt be put forth by inscriptions Wing leaders on
the and on the day of the election. Forewarned,
forearmed. Gov. Reid is just what he was two and
four years ago; he has changed no position. shrunk
from the avowal of no opinion which he holds, but
on the contrary his principles broad and as long
as the State, and every body knows them by heart
He has never been charged with equivocation, with
skulkng, or with carrying two faces, one for the
East and another for the West.
Desperate efforts will be made to trump I'D some
thing of an answer to the certificate in columns
to-day indeed, should be surprised if it turns

DEMOCRATIC MEETING IN GATES COUNTY.
A meeting of the Democrats of Gates County was
held in the Courthouse in the Town of Gatesville
on Friday, the 25th ult., over which David Parker,
Esq, was called 10 preside, at which JOHN WILEY
and ROBERT H. BALLARD. Esq RS. were unanimous
y nominated 1.-The former to represent that county in
the House of Commons, and the latter to represent
the Senatorial District composed of Gates and Chow
counties in the Senate of the next Legislature and
at which the following resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
Reso!red, That we believe IS all political power is
vested in and derived from the people only" and not
from any fifty acres of land, no. from any quantity
of land, from any kind of property of any value
whatever; that the requirement of our Constitution
that free white shall own fifty acres of land to
entitle him to vote for member of the Senate Of
the State Legislature is inconsistent with the first
section of Bill of Rights-with the spirit of a
Republican form of Government-the principles that
we hold, and is violation of right that every free
white man of North Carolina should have permission
to enjoy and that will support man to repre-
in the next Legislature, neither in the Senate
nor IN the House of Commons, who is opposed to so
amending the Constitution of our State, by Legsla-
tive enactment, extend the right Of suffrage to
every free white of the State, who enjoys the
other privileges of free citizen.
ReSOived, That the pursued by his Excellen-
cy, David S. Reid. as Governor of our State, since
he has filled that Office, and the principles he holds
and advocates endear him TO and that we will take
pleasure in giving him votes and our influence to
aid in his reelection.
Resolved That we believe the princ pies contained
in the platform of the late Democratic Nationa! Con-
venton compatible with the principles of our Re-
publican form of Government, and If adhered to and
acted upon in the management of the affairs of our
country, justice will be done to each State of the
Union, the Union will be preserved our country will
continue prosperous, and the liberties of the people
will be Perpetuated!
Resolved, further, That believing the nominees OF
that Convention for President and Vice President OF
the United States-General Franklin Pierce, of New
Hampshire and Hon. William r. King, of Alabama,
hold those principles, and if elected to fill those off.
ces, they will be guided by them, we will therefore
cheerfulIy give them our support.
All of which the Editor of the Democratic Pioneer
was requested to publish, and the North Carolina
Standard to copy.

Ia great revival there at the time, and one ofthe

when suddenly an old gentleman who was
standing in the pew directly in front of Pat,
shouted "glory." "His-s', We clear divil," re-
Joined Pat with his loud whisper, which was
heard by the minister, "be dacent, and dom,

The parson grew more and more fervent in
the devotions. Presently the deacon uttered
ian inaudible groan. "His-st, ye blackguard,

sslhe same moment giving the deacon punch
in the ribs, which caused him nearly 10 lose
