We see that one or two of our Journals say they
mortified at the late sale of our State bonds. We
deem it but just to remark that were in New York
when the sale made in fact, we were present
and the bids awarded; and such the great strn-
gency of the money market and such the rates ofn-
tercst money at the time in New York, that we
know the sale regarded under the circumstances
as a capital one. We understand that number of
persons who had intended bidding declined doing so
under the pressure We felt prouder of State
when we heard it said, that the premium obtained
held. We will further add that we know we speak
the sentiments Of all parties here when we bear tcst

which has attended them. Weekly Post.

The following article from te Norfok Argus makes

The following article from the Norfolk Argus makes
revelation quite appropos to the present time:
A CASE IN POINT. The opposition press are ma
Guthrie to Collector Bronson, and the Secretary is
denounced with the utmost vchemence and bitterness
and the whole vocabulary harsh epithes is poured
out on his devoted head. The Herald denounces the
act as Infamous" Now, it is within the knowledge
of this print that the immaculate Thomas Corwin,
Secretary of the Treasury under President Fillmore,
wrote in 1851 letter to Col Garnett the then Col
lector of this port, commanding him to remove his
deputy and confidential officer, and to appoint anoth-
er individual designating him, in his place, in order
to preserve the "harmony' of the Wing party. This
fact is as notorious here any other in the history
of the place. and will not be controversial Why did
not the Herald and its volunteer contributor express
at that time their holy horror at such enormity
Where was their Wanted patriotism then? Why did
they not have the manly independence to hurl their
hunderbots at this attempted exercise of highshod
prerogative the part of the Wing Secretary? No,
tub, not daring to sound one note of reproof-and
Tor aught we know, actually approved the deed Let
them not attempt to screen themselves the ground
That the officer whom the petty tyranny of Mr.. Cor
WIN sought to remove was Democrat 1t does not
affect the question. The principle involved is denti
caiy the that in the of bIr. Guthrie. If
1t Is not, we should like to the distinction shown.
But 1t was a virtue in Wing Secretary, becomes
crime OF the darkest dye when practiced by Dem
ocratic Secretary. Oh, Consistency thou hast in
deed become pair ofjewels of the first water.

e1sg@ The D1soRGANIzING ORGAN. That sterling
and able Democratic print the Portsmouth Globe
takes the following notice of the proposed dsorgan-
izinr ORGAN by Messrs Cantwell and Whitaker:
To the ability in literary senee of the paper
the Journal refers to- we heartily assent AS to any
other ability, which of course is included in its pro-
ssed mission politically, there certainly be none
of it. The ability of political paper is in proper
ton generally to its value to the party promoter
of its success. The Statesman, from what we learn,
has no other object in view, than if possible to de-
feat the Democratic party. Its chief aim Is to OPP
nose the Standard In opposing that able and fear
less central champion of the party it opposes natur
alIy the party itself There is other conclusion
to come to- True, delicacy might dictate to us to
await receiving the prospectus before pronouncing
Dramatically upon its politics; and would defer
to those Dictates it not that the persons inter-
ested in getting this paper up, have been for some
time foreshadowing its purposes and designs. We
could write its prospectus oursef from what have
heard and not foresta it except slightly perhaps in
It's phraseology.
As Hon. Weldon n Edwards about the first
Justly to remark, there is no such thing distri
button democrat" Indeed, we look upon going for
that measure, as taking most solemn and binding
oath of allegiance to the whig party; and we ex-
pect to participate in the North Carolina campaign
next summer quite warmly as if were there,
we shall not far forget our democracy as to treat
the Statesman any other than open saooTn wing
