The Why I've beg our Wing friends in this
and other States to mark and remember the 1oiioW-
ing important admission of the Wilmington Journal:
Fayetteville Observer.
Free Suffrage is stronger than a1y man set of men,
the result has been that Co.. Reid has, IN nearly a"
cases, run ahead of has purity uote."
This is unquestionably so but does not begin 10
account for all the large gains which Mr. Reid has
made-even in sections of the State where Free
Suffrage is rather unpopular than otherwise. Be-
Sides Gov Reid advocated the doctrine the last
time, and against unpopular Wing candidate :
whereas, this time his opponent was claimed to be
very popular. How account for his now beat
ing popular man by double the majority that ne
before obtained over unpopular one on the same
issue, unless we take into the calculation the de-
pressing effect which SCOTS nomination exerted up
on his opponent. The local feeling which operated
against MIR. Manly in Cumberland and Rutherford,
had no influence upon Mr.. Kerr, making clear diff
ference of over thousand to start on. 1t was said
that there apathy in regard to Mr. Manly
there no talk of any such thing towards MIR.
Kerr. The Wing party was active and determined
and confident of success, until after General SCOTS
nomination-then it become rather uphill bust
ness; and with all his advantages over Mr.. Manly,
Mr.. Kerr got beat by nearly double the majority
which was cast against that gentleman more than
half the majority against MIR. Kerr is attributable
to Gen Scott

IN the account of the proceedings at the great M
aoara humbug, published in the New York Tribune,
Il is announced that Judge Johnston OF Ono afrseu
with due formalty This same judge made one o,
the great speeches Of the OCCASION IN when ne neiu
forth thus;
the neonle of the world as the Book of Revelations
one book which the efforts of the Bible Socletles
had mt into nearly every log cabin in the country
You may take that book, and read It's history lon'
the Exodus of Moses until the time Saul was crown
ed King and find. no matter who 1t was founo WIN
sword in hand, fighting the battles Of his people,
afterwards ruled the land. He said this to prove
that there was ground for the religious principle
which has gone abroad to the people OF the woriu'
that the man who takes his life in his hand and goes
forth to battle, to shed his blood for his people, sna
rule over them But we need not look to religious
history for this proof Our history would equal
" prove it. He then referred to Washington, jack
SON. Harrison. and Taylor as instances, and traced
this fact to the semireligious sentiment which reghs
in every free bosom, that the man who loves liberty
so we'll as to take his life in his hand and go forth
to battle shed his blood for his countrymen is en-
titled to be exalted by the gratitude of thai people
whom he has served
True, that old book gives rather sorry account
of poor human nature and secular history don I'M
prove it much These blood-letters by trade were
made rulers to scourge the people for their wicked
ness We have reason to hope better things in these
latter days and here is the prayer OF Henry Clay
If. indeed, we have incurred the divine dlspieas-
ure and it be necessary to chastse this people with
the rod of his vengeance would humbly PROSTATE
myself before Him, and implore His mercy, 10 visit
this favored land with war, with pestilence, with
famine with any other scourge than military rule,

This same Judge seems 70 be versed in theology.
Speaking of Scott he says:
'They had brought the cause before the great glo-
rious, and unpacked jury of the whole people, who
would write Meme, meme tekel, upharsin" upon his
evenings brow, and give him a glorious verdict
This is the report of the speech as given in the
great Scott organ, the New York Tribune. This

North Carolina Election.

The Washington correspondent of the Charleston
Standard wrote thus the day before the election;
The result is supposed TO be indicative Truthful
ly the character Of the Presidential contest which
has hardly opened as yet. Both Wings and Demo,
Gratis agree-that if Reid is reelected, Scott will
hardly kick and that if Kerr succeeds the struggle
will be a severe one. The Scout managers, who,
with the exception of MIR. Stanly of North Carroll
ma. his colleague, Mangum, and Gov. Jones of Ten
nessee are exclusively Northern Sewardite Adolf
tonists, seem to be confident of success They have
franked million of pamphlets, &C., into the State,
and have furnished at least 100000 to be used up
on the voters of North Carolina. The Democrats OF
Congress from that State, equally sanguine-
One at a distance cannot realize how essentially
this Presidential election is pure sectional contest
At Washington alone, it is perceptible, beyond de-
NAL, that it is struggle for the preservation OF
Southern rights under the Constitution. The deter
mination of more than majority of the Southern
Wbig members not to countenance the election OF
Scott grows out of this fact. These Southern men
that if Pierce triumphs, Southern rights and the
strict construction which the preservation OF
those rights depends, will be strengthened under

THE FISHERIES The recent movements of the
Imperial and Calonal governments to protect the
North American Fisheries from the unjust and inju-
rious encroachments both of French and American
fishermen. appear to have excited the attention of
the whole American press. Nearly all the papers
we have seen labor under the erroneous impression
that the imperial government is about to enforce
the legal construction given to the Convention of
l8lS by the Crown Officers of England, and prevent
Americans from fishing, except at the distance of
marine miles outside of lines drawn from headland
to headland. We have good authority for asserting
that such is not the quite true that since
the opinion of the Attorney General and Advocate
General was given upon the case submitted by the
Legislature of Nova Scotia the government of that
Colony, upon the earnest request of the fishermen,
has evnced the desire to carry out the extreme le-
gal views of the Convention but the imperial gov
eminent has steadily refused to take that view of
the case, conceiving that American fishermen might
perhaps claim the right to fish anywhere outside of
three miles of any part of the coasts of British
North America, even within bays more than six
miles wide.
1t was owing to these determined movements on
the part of the colonies, that the Imperial Govern.
ment resolved upon giving efficient assistance to pro.
tect the North American fisheries; and this assis.
lance was offered. neighbors will soon learn
not with the view of enforcing the strict legal con.
structlon given to the Convention, but absolutely to
prevent the colonial cruisers from CARRYING out that
very construction, thereby mourning the risk of IN
pleasant collision with the vessels of foreign but
friendly power. 1t was to ensure Continuance oil
peace, and prevent the possibility of hostile
tiers, that imperial government has despatched its
vessels to the shores of North America

Accident en- the RAILROAD.

We learn that the mail train coming down lsat Sat-
urday morning. met with accident while passing
the tresle work about seven miles above Teacheys
depot: occasioned by the breaking OF one of the
wheels of the hndmost passenger car, throwing the
car, in some measure, off the trestle-work, and
knocking the latter completely down. The front
car was nearly off the trestle and escaped with but
little injury the hind is pretty much used up.
Mr. CRoNE, the Superintendent, was badly bruised;
one negro man injured; a negro woman in the same
car escaped unhurt. The passengers, who were all
in the front car, came down with the engine and
baggage car. None of them sustained any injury
BSPThe Newbernian accounts for the falling of
of the Wing vote in Newbern as follows
"About 25 or 80 of the Wings of Newbern must
have tainted On the day of the election. Some
FIVE or six more come near it, to vote for the
party ticket that admires the fainting' candidate
so much"
We should not be at all surprised if the Newber-
MAN will have to double his figures in November
next, as it is pretty certain there will DO much
larger number of finting" Wings at that election
than there were in August; although the weather
will be more pleasant.
