Mr.. NENABLE CoMPLIMENTED BY THE NEW YORK
TRIBUNE.-We copied into our last an article from
the New York Times, black Republican newspa-
per, showing the sympathy which that paper has
with Hon. A. w. Venabe in his opposition to De-
mocracy; and we copy to-day, as follows, from an
article from the New York Tribune the most infa-
nous of black Republican journals, showing that
that paper also has good word for MIR. Venable.
That paper of the oath June says:
"The signs OF the times forebode change. We
notice that Mr. A. w. Venable, OF the ablest
and most influential Democrats in tile 3Oth and 31st
Congress- from North Carolina, has announced him
self an independent candidate for the next House.
Massachusetts, bids fair to elect two three inde-
pendents; Pennsylvania will add to their number;
so, we are confident, will New York"
The black Republicans North, and the more ultra
Of the Know Nothings South, are keenly alive to
every demonstration of opposition to the admins
tration of James Buchanan. Mr. 3uchanan's last
and crowning sin, in the estimation of the black
Republicans, was the part he took in approving the
pro-slavery Oecompton) Constitution of Kansas,
and recommending the admission of Kansas a
saveholding State. At the South, Lecompton is
also opposed, but upon different ground. Objec-
ton is made to the quantity of lands claimed in the
ordinance accompanying the Constitution but SO it
is, both the brigades" North and South, oppose
Lecompton and the administration. The New York
Times commends Mr.. Venabe for his "efforts to
promote the public good" and the Tribune, evil
IDENTIFY rejoiced at the iumor that he is an indie.
pendent anti-administration candidate for Con-
gress, speaks of him one Of the abest and most
influential Democrats in the 30th and 3lst Congress
from North. Carolina" And who does not believe
that these papers would not rejoice if Mr. McRae,
the opposition or independent " candidate for Gov.
ernor in this State, should be elected9 They would
hail it another evidence of decaying strength in
the Southern Democracy; and while they would re.
oce, the true national Democrats in the free States
would be discouraged and depressed There can
be no doubt Of that.
Let the real friends of the administration there
fore, rise in their might and crush out Duncan K
McRae, A. W. Venable, and others, their followers
and satellites, who, from whatever cause, have de
serted James Buchanan and the Democratic party
of the State.
The Washington Union thus notices the mistake
of the New York Tribune in supposins that Mr.
Venable is candidate for Congress:
"INDEPENDENT CANDtDATEs.-The New York Tri
bune is evidently disposed to encourage the idea o
independent candidates for Congress, especially II
districts giving democratic majorities. The case
Mr. HaSkin is the one Immediately under its eve
and to sustain that gentleman in his Independent
announcement for reelection, il mentions by way
of precedent. that Hon. A. w. Venable, of N. G., i
an independent candidate for the next House. Thi
is entirely mistake, the Congressional election
| in North Carolina is not held the present year ant
candidat, s are not in the field. except to fill a va
cancy in the 9Th district. Mr.. Venable has tried tn
independent movement in his district once, and, W
| presume, to his entire satisfaction"
