Ratification Meeting.

The Democratic Club met at the Court House in
Raleigh, on Saturday evening last, the 7th ins at
O'Clock, and called to order by the President.
Considering the shortness of the notice. quite large
number were in attendance.
The President stated that he had called the meet
ing to ratify the nominations of Buchanan and
Breckenridge-the announcement was greeted with
applause.
W. W. Holden, after making some remarks, read
the proceedings of the Cincinnati Convention, and
then offered the following resolutions, which were
unanimously adopted:
Resolced, That we have heard with qualification
of the nomination for the Presidency, by the Cincn
natl Convention of that eminent long. tried and ex-
perienced statesman, James Buchanan and that we
pledge to him, and to his distinguished and worthy
associate on the ticket. j. G. Breckenridge, of Ken
lucky, our hearty and united support
Resolred, That we cordially and entirely approve
of the principles proclaimed by the Cincinnati Con-
yention.
Resolued That it is evident that the contest for
the Presidency is between the Democratic party and
the black republican organization; and that, in our
opinion, it is alike the interest and the duty of all
Southern men to take sides with the national Demo
cratic party-the only party which holds out strong
and reasonable assurances, by its harmony and its
numbers that it will succeed in saving the constitu-
ton and the Union from the combinations that now
encompass and menace them with overthrow and
destruction.
Messrs. A. M. Lewis, Geo. w. Brooks, Pulaski
Cowper and Capt. DeCarteret in answer to calls,
addressed the meeting in spirited speeches, which
were well received
The meeting then adjourned.

MEssRs. EDITORS In your last issue you speak
OF the state of political parties in Chatham and We
ry properly state that the prospect of the Demo-
cratic party was never better than at present With
sound Democratic ticket the county can no doubt
De carried. With Mr.. Rives in the Senate and Gen.
Gotten or his brother, DR.. S. w. Gotten. and two
other democrats in the Commons, the county, in
August next, will come out the right side up You
further inform us that Turner Bynum is a candi
date, and represent him as "a thorough qoino anti
hnoo Nothing" and leave your readers to infer
that ne is candidate to be supported by the Dem
ocratc party. If understand the matter Alright,
that is great mistake. Mr. Bynum is candidate
upon his own hook. He has not, as yet, made any
general declaration of principle but understand at
the last election in this Congressional district, he
voted Tor Reade against Kerr and is for Fillmore for
PRESIDENT if he thinks he can be elected. 1 under
stano ne is against Gilmer, but says he is so upon
personal pei considerations You see therefore, if
am rightly Informed, that Mr. Bynum is not tho
lougn gong anti-Know Nothing nor is he such a
candidate as the Democrats of this county can sup
port without an abandonment of principle If Mr..
Dyhum will declare himself favorable to the success
" tne Democratic party, and is willing to stand by
us s nominee against the black republicans as well as
uie Anow Nothngs, the Democrats of this county
Ml stand by him, without enquiring what has been

democrat, consistently with his principles, can sup.
port Mr.. Bynum.
