THE NeMbern Delta.

This paper which, however, can plead youth and IN
experience as an excuse for its mistakes takes occasion
in its issue of the 9Th the character OF men
for in some matters which, had it reflected better,
it would probably have let alone Abiding to an
article in the Journal of the 9th instant, headed
''What is it to U.s." said article being reply to or
explanation of one similarly headed in the Raleigh
Democratic Press, the Delta says, the Wilmington
Journal also of the 9th inst same day of the Stan
ard-contains transposed edition of the Standards
article" ETC., etc. The Delta simply makes the slight
mistake of saying that the Journal of the 9th, is the
same day with the &andard,-it was the day before,
and published the day before the Standard reached Will
mington. The Standard Of the 9TH contained an article
similar to that n the Journal far the statement OF
facts in reference to State printing at the disposal OF
the Governor was concerned 1t not strange that these
facts correctly stated should look very much alike in
both papers. AS for the fight between the Standard,
Press and Warrenton Necs we have nothing to do with
it, and have said so than But any attack
upon the Democratic Executive of the State is certain
y another thing also any reflections upon able and
reliable Democratic candidates like Messrs. Shaw and
Scales who had been endorsed by the Democrats OF their
respective Districts in Convention assembled whence it
must appear that denunciations Of or reflections upon
these gentlemen must extend to the Democracy OF their
Districts for be it known that Dr. Shaw lost no votes
he poled more than he did before and rather think
that Mr.. Scales held his own too.
If the Editor Of the Delta had reflected little, perhaps
he would have seen the absurdity of the following
mark contained in his article under consideration ??
q Now Notwithstanding that the Journal appears to
have accepted the commission Of AiddeC Camp already,
we must first look at things while ask, What is it to
usp
We must have accepted it before it was rendered, then
although the Delta insinuates that we accepted it in pur
suance Of call in a number of the Standard received
after acceptance, sort of propheca dongs as one
might say!
No one who knows anything Of the relations of the
Standard and Journal would suspect them of any pri-
vae understanding, and little would any person, at
all acquainted with the Of the Journal suspect it
of playing second fiddle to anybody. Its way is to
be independent Its conductors have lived too long to
make noisy professions of such a thing
We assure our Newbern cotemporary that we offer
these remarks in all respect and kindness The editor
of that paper has been sick We are pleased to that
he is better and able to attend to his duties But his i'll
has inerfered with his keeping the run" of mat
ters and things generally while upon in particular
he may not yet have been posted.

Tarboro' Branch Rail Road.

We regret to learn that no further action will be had
on our Rail Road, until the Annual meeting of the
Stockholders OF the W. q w. R. Road in November
next 1t seems that the estimated cost of the Branch
will exceed the limit specified in the call meeting and
the Directors do not deem it advisable to proceed fur
ther, without the sanction of the Stockholders
There must be some mistake in the above paragraph
which we Clip from the Tarboro' Somherner By refer
ence to our advertising columns it will be seen that the
W. W. r. r. Go. have advertised for proposals fo
the grading of the Branch Road to Tarboro, It ma,
be that the amount required for the completion of th
road will be larger than at first contemplated Rut
appears to US that the Directors are disposed to 90 ~
WIN the work. AT all events, so it would seem from
their advertisement

The following from the Petersburg Press, very
to expressing our own views upon Judge Douglas
and his position. We do not and cannot agree with
Judge Douglas Harper manifesto, but at the time
he is not either AbolitOnst, is his position as
bad as Black Republcanism, nor anything like it:
We have endeavored to show the objections to Judge
Douglas dogma of territorial sovereignty with enough of
precision to satisfy the most careful the most careless of
readers that condemn from beginning to end Hearth
Iy condemn it, however, subscribe the
sentiments which the enemies of Hdge Douglas have indus
triOusy propagaedha it as bad than Black
Republicanism-Or Black Republicanism in disguise.
We neither in the dogma ITSELF in the argument
by which is sustained in the political life of stephen
A. Douglas the smallest evidence OF hostility to the South
her institutions her rights We in it marks of
onalism fanatcism Nothing of the sort Judge Doug
las makes appeal for the negro. He proclams
between the sections He advises of legislative
prohibition against slavery. He does not with the WmOt
proyisosts insist on the duty of prohibition He claims for
Southern men the right to be heard in the territorial legis
latures, as much Northern He makes discrmi
nation between slave property and other property bringing
all property, OF all kinds under the general rule
Whether not his doctrines would operate against the
teress the North than the South is question far
too nicely balanced for hasty conclusions.

Let tell you my fellow citizens that those who may

The WarrentOn News.

We have no disposition to do the NeocS the slightest
injustice neither is it custom to anSnuate, as the
Neag appears to charge In the hurry of moving, and
in the difficulty of handling papers, or of writing incl
dent to disabled hand have not paid that careful at
tentOn to the articles of the Nec that we would have
done under other circumstances and unfortunately the
papers containing the " Plain Truths" series have
from the same cause, been mslaid What comments we
make we wish to make urderstandingIy. Would it be
asking too much of our friend Of the Neas to request
him, if not very nconvenient. to favor with a copy
of each of those numbers of his paper containing the
articles referred to- and then shall endeavor to point
out the particulars of disagreement with the Neav
together with our reasons for such disagreement.
By the way, we take occasion to say that the NeqrS
has not, to knowledge belief, assaed Gov Ellis
and if our article headed What is it to 81" is under
stood as conveying that IMPRESSION it fails to convey
our meaning correctly.
B9~ We are happy in the prospect ofhaving day O
rest tomorrow for the matter stands pursue know
ledge under difficulties, cutting out copy and writing edi
torias by proxy, or sometimes making odd pencimark
after new system invented by ourselves.
TO others besides the days rest will be welcome
Among the toing millions of this country and of Eu

weared frame will have opportunity to recuperate
many family separated during the week will have
chance to be reunited and be enabled to cultivate tn
kind feelings appropriate to the domestic circle
Many one, to whom no earthly thing affords couso

with spirit strengthened and refreshed by partici
patton in the holy exercises of religion and study
