to supply his customers as heretofore; and we ART
glad the opportunity presents itself to say word II
his favor very useful and deserving citizen, and
artist of skill and high reputation; and trus
his business may flourish and his enterprise be re

We take pleasure in copying the above from thu
Times. Mr. Fentress was sufferer by the late fire
but his losses, instead of depressing him, have only
served to stimulate him to renewed exertion in hi:
calling. He deserves encouragement.
For the Standard.
Mr. EDlroR: see by the papers that call hal
been made on the Democratic party Of Wake for
Convention at May Court, to nominate candidates 70
the Legislature. Permit me to recommend, through
the columns Of your truly valuable paper, the natn
Of WESLEY JONES, Esq, as suitable candidate 70
the Senate.
1t is unnecessary to say any thing of Mr. Jones, 70
he is well known to citizens and served faith
fully in the last Legislature. With Mr.. Jones, tn,
Democracy can and will make clean sweep in Angus
next in the County Of Wake.
A DEMOCRAT.
The Wilmington Journal responds as follows t
our recent article in relation to Judge Douglas an
the Democratic Review:
"There need be no difference Of opinion about Judg
Dougas-he is certainly of the ablest-one of tn
very ablest men in the country, and we should b
most happy TO do battle under his leadership. b.
we have had doubts, which are fast changing int
certainties in regard TO the real character of th
'' Democratic Review" The impression upon or
mind is becoming irresistible, that it is no, Demo
cratic periodical at all-that its object is to di.
sensions in the ranks of the Party-tha in fact, it
either spy or traitor-a device of the enemy, whc
cannot too soon be exposed"
We fully concur with the Journal in the above n
marks.
