LAST WORDS OF WEBSTER. Daniel Webster,
(says the Pennsylyanian,) short time before his
death, called his confidential friend, Peter Harvey,
Esq, of Boston, to him, and asked him whether
Rufus Choate intended supporting Scott. Mr. H4r-
vey answered, &c do know, but think no.''
g w ell,'' said the amened Webster, 'Choate has
youth and talents, and tell him from not his
future prospects by taking step in support Scott
and tell him, my dying message to him, that after
the Cd day of November next, the wing party,
national party, will exist only in history -
The name of the highly respectable gentleman who
vouches for the truth of the above is left this office.

RALEIGH, Nov. 3, 1852.
To the Editor of the National Era l write TO ask
at your hands an act of justice. On yesterday
friend called my attention to publication in your
paper, purportng be the proceedings of Freesoi
Randolph County, n. c., for the purpose of nomi-
mating Electors favorable to the principles of the
Freesoil party and the election of Mr. John P. Hale
to the Presidency. Whether such meeting was
tuay held, or whether the alleged proceedings were
sent to you as a hoax, know not. But was as
tonished to fLd my name placed on the ticket as
Elector. 1t was done, sir, without my consent,
knowledge, appreciation. In North Carolina the
public need no denial of my having countenanced
this proceeding; but, you have published it in
your paper, doubt because you took it for granted
that such Convention was really held, and perhaps
with the consent of gentlemen whose me,l-
toned, most respectfully request you to publish
this Gard, which l deem proper for my vindicaton.
Respectfully,

For the Standard,

Mr.. HOLDEN l send you for publication copy of
Gard which l forwarded to the National Era
soon as my attention called to the 10
which it relates. The names of several gentlemen,
of the Whig-and Democratic parry, have no doubt,
have been used without their owtedge; but the
matter has been published, and my attention directed
it, deem it proper to give my disapprobation of
their proceedings similar newspaper existence
that no man, here elsewhere, hereafter, may
infer from my silence that countenanced the move

WILMINGTON.

We gather the following interesting statistics in
relation to the trade of Wilmington, from ref-
able source. Extract of Letter Dated
WIIMINGToN, Nov. 2, 1852.
The statistics you ask for are easily obtained
as there is no record of coasting exports i'm
ports kept. The following is the number of foreign
entries and clearances for the year ending the Both of
June, 1852, as taken from the books of the Custom
House:
Entered, 80 Foreign Vessels, 1910 tons.
81 American do. 1885
Cleared, rs Foreign Vessels, 14O95 tons.
152 American do. 1881 ''
These vessels sailed principally, West Indies,
South America, England, Spain and Germany.
The nearest approach to the value of our exports
coastwse is perhaps found in The amount of exchange
brought by the Banks in this place. which was about
two and half million dollars if add to this
about a quarter or half million sold merchants
we have an approximation to the exports of Whining
ton this does not include the exports of Fay eeville
shipped through this place. The total number of
vessels arriving and departing is about 800 annually,
and is steadily increasing in number and size at the
rate of near 10 per cent. annually. Vessels load al
our wharves to IL feet and proceed to
You will perceive that the number of vessels ar
irving from foreign countries is greatly less than
the number clearing for foreign countries; that is
do not import near much from them ship to
them. The reason is that have been isolated
from the balance of the State that had market
for the produce of foreign countries; but Rail

THE ELECTION.

With the setting of to-day's (Tuesday's) sun, the
struggle will be ended. This day great people
will determine whether they still retain the virtues
of their foreihers, have lapsed into that decadence
of the manlier sentiments of the American bosom
which permit brave and faithful old soldier to
he beaten down by calumny and slander.-Registers
We copy the foregoing from the Register issued
on the day of the election.
The answer is, three or four States out of thirty
one for Scott, and all the rest for that bue-nose
and obscure yankee" FRANKLIN PIERCE.
The deed has indeed been done and, according
to the Register, this great people" do not g re-
tain the virtues Of their forefathers Oh naugh-
ty people oh calamitous RESULT Is not the Regis
ter prophet More anon.
w- Vermont seems to be conceded to General
Scott though the returns are not in. We believe
it requires majority of all the votes in that State
to cast its Electoral vote !; and we have heard the
wish expressed that no one may get majority
that the matter of the Electoral vote may be re-
erred for decision to the Legislature and that that
body may postpone i,ade5fnitezy.
Vermont, be it remembered, is the only State
which has deliberately nulifed the fugitive-slave
law.
