THE NAUGHTY PEOPLE.

The Raleigh Register, the Scott-Seward organ o1
this State, told the people just before the election
that in voting for the Democratic candidate 70,
Governor they would vote as follows:
"REMEmBEe. that by voting for Reid, you support
man who voted for the Wilmot Proviso and vir,u.
ally endorse Franklin Pierce, who loathes the Fu.
gtive Slave Law!
BY voting for Reid you vote away the portion of
the Public Lands to which North Carolina is legi,i-
maeIy entitled, and which is SO SO essential to the
relief of our public burdens and the education of our
youth!
BY voting for Reid you vote for the man who went
against allowing the soldiers, who then fighting
the battles Of your country. slight increase in their
monthly ray, while he was voting for the Wilmot
Proviso ard receiving 90 per day!
by voting for Reid. you deny the most sacred prin-
power is vested n and derived from, the people. {"
Will you do it!''
The naughty people-to givesuch votes as these
According to the Register, the people of North
Carolina have voted for the Wilmot Proviso-have
voted to give away the public lands-have voted
against the soldiers who fight the battles of the
country-have voted to deny and repudiate a
"most sacred principle of Republican government
The Richmond Enquirer speaks of the late elec-
ton in this State the first gun from the South"
and says this glorious result secures the vote of
the State for Pierce and King" The Examiner is
equally reoiced, and speaks of the great news from
North Carolina" 1t is, indeed, "grea, news. 5"
1t seals the doom of Scott-Sewardism in every
State south of the Potomac, and it must depress
and dampen, in no inconsiderable degree, the spi-
rits of the Scott men in all the States. We were
not mistaken when we predicted, a few days before
the election, that the first gun from North Caro-
lima will roll like the kne of doom over the hopes
of the Seward candidate for President.
The tactics of the Wing Executive Committee
at Washington will now be changed. The effort
will now be to get all the votes possible for Scott
and Graham from the Abolitionists of the free
States and hence no means will be left untried to
convince these Abolitionists, Of all shades and COL
or, that Scott is with them in sentiment and Pierce
against them. Mangum, stanly, and Seward, with
Truman Smith and Greey and Weed to help them,
will know how to play that game.
The Washington Union of Tuesday last, con-
tans strong article on the subject Of our elections
which we have transferred to our columns. It
seems that Mr. Kerrs two faces have been heard of
in Washington. The Union says he took special
pains to shape his course in the different parts of
the State so as to concate the feelings of different
localities on all the special issues.

One of the Washington Correspondents of the
Baltimore Sun, noticing the result in North Caro-
lima, says:
ut is now pretty we'll conceded on all sides that
the elections in North Carolina have turned out in
favor Of the democrats, and the opposite party ae-
knowledge - The corn.'' The democrats look upon
1t as an indication that Gen. Pierce will carry every
State south Of Mason and Dixon's line, and that il
New York holds out. their candidate is undoubtedly
elected. On the other hand, the Wings believe that
they will sweep the North, as the democrats will
sweep the South. 1t would be unfortunate affair,
if wings and democrats were divided by geographic
cal line.''

His speeches brilliant beyond any thing Of the

At the time of penning this article (Thursday,)

7slt the majority in the Commons appears to be
1.-The Wing side, with some prospect Of such a
a,rty IN that body as to either tie the two Houses

7,ro majority This estimate, however, gives the

ism in New York. to join in the abolition con.
spiracy against General Pierce. The Journal quo
ting from the Utica Observer notice Of the SANDER,
says:
The Observer is right in 7ronouncing, the story
untrue. 1t has been contradicted by Gen. Pierce's
personal friends who were present on the occasion,
and the denial published in the Washington papers
over the signatures Of the locofoco senator and con-
gressmen from New Hampshire. There can be no
doub, that the sentiments Of opposition to this law at
tribu,ed him not founded upon what he real
" said. The 'whig press,' so far as we have OBJ.
served, have e"deavored to do him justice BY Psb-
IishinQ the correspondence which places him on re-
cord as the firm and devoted friend Of the slave law"
In reply 10 the last three lines of the above, we
would inquire Of the Journal whether it numbers the
Washington Republic and the Richmond Whig
among its whig exchanges!

of the Hard Cider" tom fooleries Of is40, the
Wings at recent ratification Meeting in Maine,
sought to turn remi,liscence of the weakness Of
one Of their candidates to poltica! account in this
wise:
"a loaf Of GRAHAM, bread and generous bowl Of
soup with wooden spoon in it, stood on each side
of the desk, with which the speakers occasionally
RECALLED themselves, and which they pronounced fully

Such nonsense won't take at this day especial
ly as it is devoid of the poor merit Of originality.

bitter enemy Of your cause, and the raducer Of that
glorious old hero, who is destined to carry forward
the standard of his country once more to victory!
