Whereas God in his all-wise providence
has called away our late beloved fellow mem
Der, Alexander Martin Hogan, from life
whose early morning had just begun to shed
around him the bright prospects and cheer
ing hopes of usefulness and honor to himself,
his friends and his country, and as we all
loved his virtues, honor his memory, and
mourn over his death; therefore,
RESOLVED, That while we bow to the decree
which has summoned him away, we shall
ever cherish in our hearts those sentiments
Of esteem aud affection, of love and friend
ship, which his life and his character, his
gentle bearing. his amiable disposition, the
noble impulses Of his soul, aud the kind cha
rites Of his heart, have impressed US.
ResOired, That whereas by the dispense
ton of God, the highest hopes of his rela-
tons have been blasted, we sincerely con-
dole their irreparable loss, and mingling our
tears upon the common altar Of grief, we will
endeaybr to soothe the anguish Of that fami-
" who must feel most sensibly this stroke Of
death.
Resolred, That in testimony of our sad be-
reayement we will wear the usual badge Of
mourning thirty DAYS.
RESOLVED, That copy Of these resolutions
be sent TO the friends of the deceased, and
to the Hillsb0rOugh Recorder, Raleigh Stan
dard, and University Magazine, with the re-
quest for publication.

comes in the garb Of philosophy or in that Of
brutality. We have supported, and will continue
to support, Colonel Fremont for the Presi-
dency, on the highest principles Of statesman
ship and the most approved sentiments Of policy;
and if any Of our contemporaries in the same
camp begin to show their old instincts and old
follies and old brutalites we shall first quietly
counsel them like friends and if they prove re-
fractory, we shall next kick them out Of our way
like "border ruffans," who ought not to be treat
ed otherwise in a dignifed controversy.
Colonel Fremont, by combination of various
causes and influences which we understand per-
fectly well, is now something ahead OF his two
competitors, and will, in all probability-if his
friends conduct themselves with dignity and pro-
priety-be elected President of the United
States. If he should be SO elected President of
the United States, and should organize and con-
duct his administration on the great conservative
principles of the constitution and enlightened
craftsmanship we shall support that admnistra-
ton, and 60 for his reelection to the Presidency
in 1860. If, however, he should fail in realizing
the hopes formed of him in that respect we shall
oppose him as warmly, as strongly and as deter
minedly as we have ever opposed the imbecile
administration Of Pierce. That's all.

are now planted on the grand platform of oppo-
sition to Buchanan and the democracy, and ulti-
mately in favor of Fremont and the revolution in
politics The Buchanan partizans in Pennsylva-
MIA are endeavoring to encourage their followers
by calculations based upon the old issues, but
they have neglected to take into account the
great religious element which is opposed to Them.
They have omitted to notice that the united
religious press of Philadelphia, as well as New
York, is almost unanimously opposed to them,
and that in consequence the rotten democracy
will be defeated in Pennsylvania as they have
been in Maine. This religious element has not
appeared in politics in this country during the
last quarter of century, but it has lately been
awakened in the fullest force, by the atrocious
policy of the Pierce administration in relation to
Kansas, and there is the strongest reason to be-
lieve that it will sweep Pennsylvania, in opposi-
ton to the Buchanan party, both on the l4th Of
October and the 4th of November, inaugurating
one of the greatest political revolutions ever
known in the history Of our country.

Philosophy Our or TENpER.-Our amiabic
contemporaries OF the Tribune should never, by
any chance lose their good temper. A philoso-
pher il poor stick at best IL he cannot govern
his temper; and politician is of little account
unless he can not only govern his temper but also
smooth the RULED tempers of the hungry crew
about him. The Tribune wisely thinks that there
is no necessitv for mixing up the Presidential
election with the municipal one. We are of the
same way of thinking. We have put forward
and supported John G. Fremont as the best repre-
sentative, In the general government, of the adj
minis,rative wisdom Of the people Of the United
States. We have defended him against q series Of
brutal personalities unparalleled in the history Of
politics Our c?temporary Of the Tribune concurs
with us in support of the same Presidential can
didaie and in reprobating the brutal personal at
lacks Of his calumniators and enemies Why not
make this mode general principle Of political
conduct
In the municipal election, and probably In the
State election also, II seems that VIC may differ
and most likely viii differ, with our philosophers
Of the Tribune; but in order to give the same
tone Of high moral character to these contests
that we have endeavored to give to the Presi-
Dental contest, we shall lend our support or in
icrpose our opposition TO candidates in the one as
we have done in the other. We shall avoid and
frovn upon personalities and miserable private
affairs Judging Of the public capacity and fitness
Of candidates without favor or affection.
A great many sensible persons Ia this city who
originally opposed Fernando Wood for Mayor
arc now in his favor, believing as they do, that
good government is more attainable by renewing
bis tenure Of Office than by discarding him, with
all bis experience, and taking up another and
an untried man, for no other reason than
that Mr.. Wood has personal foes and
rivals In his own camp as well as in the camps of
his opponents. The Tribune is perfectly welcome
to oppose or to support any one IL pleases for the
Office Of Mayor; but we think we have a right to
express our opinion on the proprety Of its course
and on its consistency of temper and tone in sup
porting one candidate in one way, and opposing
another candidate in another way.
wthregard to our acts or professions in the sup
port OF Gel Fremont for the Presidency we shall
never 90 far out of our way to have them verified
by the appreciation Of the Tribune. We will do our
duty without regard to cliqucs. We can smile
