Semi-weekly standard. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1853-18??, 1854-06-17

~ We copied into last manly and adj
rnirable article from the Petersburg Intelligencer
Wing, on the subject of Northern Whiggery. The
Intelgencer has shown the deadly hostility of the
Wings of the free States to Southern rights and has
cut loose from them forever We honor Mr. Syme
for his Independent and patriotic spirit In his paper
of the Sth of June he says in addition to the article
we have copied
Randolph, "f Roanoke, " will at once see that we
have cut loose FROM our former Northern allies be-
cause they have abandoned the great principle of
nationality which formed the strong bond between
us, and have identified themselves with the faction
lists, ncendaries and disunionists of the Free Soil
and Abolition school. AS long thought them
sincere and honest in the professions which they
made-as long as we believed them disposed to up
hold the Constitution and the law of the land-we
stood side by side with them in the struggles which
we have had with Democracy, not doubling IN the
simplicity and carnestness of our faith that true
spirit of patriotism-a wide and vigorous conserva-
tism-a genuine and lofty regard for country ami
mated their counsels and infuenced'their conduct
We thought too, that in these respects the claims of
the Northern Democracy to Southern favor were far
inferior to those of the Wings. But the Nebraska
touch-stone has tested them both, and candor COM
pels us to say that the Northern Wigs, haze, an
body, been pr0ren wtterl unsound and untaustocOr
thy, ahilst, wih comparatively teac exceptions, the
Northern Democrats haze been faithful to their Con-
stitutOnal obligations. AS soon the course
of these Wings upon the Nebraska question, we
i
because could not, after such marked and wan
ton display of hostility to the SOUTH and to her
EQUAL RIGHTS guaranteed by the FEDERAL
COMPACT, which is the basis and bulwark of the
RepubIc-we could not we say, after this, hesitate
to sever connection which was forbidden alike by
the dictates of honor, of consistency and duty. We
could not as a member cf National Wing party
become like our former allies the confederates of
Garrison, of Philips, of the Stoves the Giddings',
the Summers and the Stewards, and all the other
treason plottors and anarchists of the North. As
they have thus verified the charge which the Dem
ocracy has always made against them of decided
sympathy for and a secret utilization WITH these I'M
principled agitators leave them to the enjoyment
Of whatever fruits they may reap from their "ev
communications " We are not of them with
them, and henceforward our course will be regulated
accordingly"
We shall have word or two to say in reply to the
low abuse of the Raleigh Register, but in the mean
time call the attention of the Editor to the fore
going. Mr.. Syme is good Wing as he is more
intelligent, and better informed to the condition
and course of Northern Whiggery. He confirms all
we said in late issue, and to which the Register at
tempted reply.
Come out, Mr.. Register and tell us if the record
sh0ocs one Hhig an the free Suites sound upon tile
Constitutional rights Of the South Even the Al
bany Register, the personal and political organ of
Mr.. Fillmore is bitterly against us, shall show
BEHOLD YOUR ALLIES! BEHOLD THE ALLIES
OF GEN. DocKEEY, who says he will "aoait and see"
what these enemies of Southern ghts will do! They
have not gone far enongh-he cannot cut loose from
hem yet
