The Herald don't like the resolutions OF the Demo-
cratic meeting. Didn't expect it would like them
Instead of keeping anything back they talk right out
That's why the Herald don't like them. 1t don't like
the resolution that endorses the National Democrats
of the North-the men who passed the Fugitive Slave
Law and the Kansas and Nebraska Bills. 1t is GER
tain that the majority of Northern Democrats in the
House voted for the latter BILL and that not one Wing
did II was even more decided in the Senate. The
Fuptive Slave Law received over forty Northern
Democratic votes, and three Northern Wing votes IN
the House-not one Northern Wing vote in the Sem
ate If these men have been stricken down IN those
Northern States, where Know Nothingism is now IN
the ascendant. is that any reason why we should
Withdraw our confidence from them The National
Democratic party has been defeated at the North On
this yery ground-because of its standing up for the
constitution and the rights of the South. Should the
South turn against the friends who have fallen fight
ing her battles? We think not. Every principle OF
honor and self-preservaton counses different course
The Herald charges down upon the President in
very nearly the same language as we find IN the
Frpe.soil papers of the North 1t CHARGES him with
having re opened the agitation of the Slavery ques-
ton. Making this charge amounts TO condemnation
of the Kanzas Bill, for it is that we presume, over
which Aboltonism is cavortng. Does the Herald
mean to 90 against these measures? Its condemna-
ton of the President comes TO that.

0G-It is somewhat remarkable how inevitably
things come back 10 the point they started FROM
The result of the election in Maine, is that
the State, which has inseparaby connected its name
with prohibitory Legislation in regard 10 the liquor
traffic. is the first to repudiate it. clear majority
of Anti Maine Law Men has been elected to the
Maine Legislature, and next winter will see Maine
no longer under Maine Law so called. This
world moves slowly. 1t takes long years to make
any radical change in the minds and manners of
men. Any new cause may be pushed on for snort
time with an impetus that to the unthinking seems
bound to endure forever and carry all before it, when
suddenly the reaction comes, as it does after any
species of overtrading, and the game up. Soft and
fair goes far, but these tornado oneidea better than
your neighbour parties do last. The action is
too violent and inevitably creates reaction of even
more than corresponding strength
When we see how overriding things can upset
them even where the object aimed at is unquestiona-
bly, right and proper, need we be surprised if SINH
lar of overriding should so to speak, do oVe
of as doubtful propriety or constitutionaty
as that of Know Nothngism. That the zeal of the
advocates of prohibition at least in the South

"CATALoGUE OF DAVIDSON COLLEGE, FOR 1855 p
very neatly printed thirty page pamphlet bearing
the above title reached us Friday morning through the
mail.
Davidson College is situated in Mecklenburg coun-
w. some twenty miles from Charlotte, and about TOUR
from the redelI county line The location Is healthy
and very pleasant village has grown up The COL
ege is under the supervision mainly Of the Concord
Presbvtery, although we notice the OF six min
listers and as many elders from the Bethel Presbyery
and three ministers, Rev. F. K Nash, Rev M B. Grler
and Rev VIM H. Hogshead, and one elder, Alexan-
der Martin, ESQ, from the Fayetteville Presbytery
The college is literally endowed, indeed the be-
quest of the late Maxwell Chambers, Esq, is munlt-
icent and even part of it, if the whole cannot be
legally received, will place its finances in an envia-
bic position.
The faculty under the Presidentship of Rev Drury
Lacy, D. D., gives evidence of more than average
ability. The number OF Students (81) is not SO large
as it has been, but it is rapidly increasing. Some
difficulties between the faculty and the Students
wear or two ago. rather thinned the numbers of the
latter for the time being, but without any permanent
injury to the institution The greater portion of the
attendance is from the South western Counties OF this
State and the adjoining districts of South Carolina
there being but few from the eastern counties. From
New Hanover we notice the names of Messrs. D. J.
Devane, J. H. Foy, and A. w. Zimmerman. We
presume that with increased means of communica.
ton, larger number Of the young men of the East
will be sent up to perfect their education in cheap
healthy and agreeable section of country. The ex,
penses for session of five months, tuition included
are put down at about sixty dollars.

-, - the way in which the K. N. organs stlg-
at;zed the majority of the people OF the State as

drod Democrats of glorious old Edgecombe were

oninion Wilmington was the very last place from
,Ibicb such aspersions should go forth. We were
clad to get the capital of the farmers of Edgecombe
10 build up Know Nothing Banks here, 10 keep
things going, and it wrong and insulting to talk
of them as ant-Amercans." This is about the
amount of what was said We do not know that
the Bank of Wilmington was referred to in so many
words but that, presume, makes but little differ
ence, the object aimed at not to strike at this
or that Bank, but to show up the Know-Nothlng
cant of calling the whose capital is so largely
used in the business operations of our place. Anti
Americans &c., &c. AS for the talk about a
Know. Nothing Bank" and so on, that is no new
thing; we presume everybody has heard OF it in
private conversation and as everybody in town may
satisfy themselves by running over the names OF the
directors we choose to let the matter stay as it is
There can be but one opinion on the subject
We are not stockholders, and have small say one
way or the other. Some Democrats happen to be
connected with the Wilmington and Weldon Rail
road, and have been placed upon the Democratic Vi
gilant Committee not as Railroad men, but as Demo
Gratis. Unless we are greatly mistaken, the Demo
Gratis are minority in the Board of Directors of that
Company There is no parallel whatever between the
cases. We hope the Bank in question may make
money, and help others to do so too; but this does
not prevent our agreeing with Dr. Vikings in what
he said about people using and controlling the capl
tai of other people and then sneering at them as
"anti-Americans" simply because they choose to ad
here to the Democratic party. Wilmington wants
to extend her relations with all these people, and
she is already under obligations to them as stock,
holders in her Banks and her public works
