plain; and the Register is wholly mistaken in its
scriptural figure about Lazarus and Dives. There
is no "gulf" between the Standard antt the Denoc-
racy of the county, of the State. The Editors Of
the Standard have never disorganzed, or attempted
to disorganize the Democratic party. They hhse
never sold themselves for price, and then crept
back into the fold. They have never made their
own promotion requisite for their adherence to
Democratic principles and Democratic organization.
They have never gone astray after strange GODS
begged their way into any convention of delegates,
or any where else. They pin their faith to no man
or set of men, either for reward or the hope of re-
ward. They act upon principle; and they feel con-
fident that good principle never lead to bad
conclusion. They join no cliques or combinations
for personal promotion. They now stand, as they
have stood since they have been editors the
broad platform Of the national Democracy, advoca-
ting and defending its principles, and exposing the
designs Of all dsorganzers, without regard to per-
sonal consequences. If any throw stones at us,
mark that he who casts the first one is himself with
out the sin Of INSTRUMENTATION. Hhe is not his stone
will fall short of its aim There is no fear of others
throwing them.

Wake Superior Court.

We announced in our last the verdict in the case
of Hogue, indicted for killing Parish with malice
aforethought On Friday the prisoner was brought
into Court and was sentenced by Judge Dick to be
hanged on the Goth day of next month. His coun-
sci had previously moved for trial, but failing
in that they appealed to the Supreme Court after
sentence of death had been pronounced.
Edward Robbins was convicted of bigamy, and
was branded on the right check with the letter B.,
and sentenced to be whipped on Tuesday of May

On Saturday couple of free negroes were sold

Railroad Freights.
April 18th, 1859.

We made no allusion to the Warrenton Ne,os in
our article of the I'd Railroad freights yet that
journal has thought proper to reply, and to dispute
some of our statements. We assure the Ne,os that
we had good authority for our statements in regard
to freights on the Roads mentioned. What the
Neaos and the people of the counties through which
the CASTOR Road runs complain of is, that the
charges are or have been too high for short dis
tanccs. This complaint is well-founded; and Maj.
Wilder has already succeeded in making arrange
ments with the Petersburg Road by which these
charges will be reduced That he will be able soon
to make similar arrangements with the Seaboard
Road we do not doubt The Neacs says it stands
"ready to do Maj. Wilder ample justice when he
does justice to the people Of Warren and Granville,
by making an equitable arrangement of the present
unfair tariff of freights" This would all be fair
enough, if Maj. Wilder controlled the Raleigh and
Castor Railroad Company, and could control the
Petersburg and Seaboard Companies; but it is un-
fair to expect every thing at the hands of one man.
and he only an administrative officer
The Neacs is incredulous as to one of our state
mcnts. Very well. We trust "our contemporary
will pardon our incredulity" as to several of its
statements in its first article on the subject
The Neacs also leaves the impression on its read
ers that we are disposed to endorse Maj Wilder's
"tuture course" That paper would have shown q
fairer disposition towards US if it had quoted-no
one line, as it does of the sentence the whole
sentence. The Neacs says:
"The Editor of the Standard considers Maio,
Wilder, peculiarly well qualified for the place he
fills" We have never heard anything to the con
trary. He also, "does not expect to change his
opinion of him." Now, while we would not 60 so fal
as to endorse any public mans future course'' &c
Now what we did say was this:
For our part lie consider him peculiarly vel
qualified for the place which he fills; and such is
our confidence in his business habits, Judgment ant
energy of character that we do not expect to change
our opinion Of him. At any rate, we are determin
ed to give him fair trial as President of the Road
and this in common justice he is entitled to- as vel
from those who complain as from those who do not
| Now it strikes us there is no small difference be
tween endorsing public mans culture course
and saying that such is our confidence in him, OF
account Of his peculiar fitness for an office, "tha
we do not expect to change our opinion of him"
But the Neps, as its first article shows, is rere
with Maj Wilder, and cannot, therefore, be expect
ed to do him entire justice.

W The Giraffe, noticing the trial of Hogue,
says: "Mr. Hogue, much to his SURPRISE no doubt
and the surprise Of most of our citizens was found
guilty of murder" Now this is unjust whether
Intentionally so or not we cannot tell-to Messrs.
Smith and Lewis, the counsel for the prisoner 1t
is fact that ninety of the citizens
of this community expected that Hogue would be
convicted This conviction was not to the "sur-
prise of most of our citizens" His counsel man.

speeches to the jury in manner which would have

PERsoNAL.-On Friday last we had friendly visit
from our valued friend Mr. W. T. Balm, keeper Of
the hotel at Raleigh near the Capitol, formerly Gui
ons. He is not public man in the full meaning of
the word but he is greatly esteemed and beloved by
a large circle of friends. He keeps an excellent
house, distinguished for good order and propriety-
to the satisfaction Of ALL we believe, who favor him
with their custom.
On Friday we were favored with call from j. L.
Pennington ESQ.,, editor and proprietor of the New
bern Progress. He looks in fine health, and was IN
good spirits-so suppose that all is going on well
with him in his new enterprise. Mr.. P. deserves
great credit for his industry, perseverance and en-
ergy. He is man we'll qualified for his present
position, to which he has attained by the good quail
tiles enumerated -Goh7sboro' Tribune.

DEAR SrR NV sttsntion has been called to- your
account Of the proceedings Of the convention on Mon
day last, in which find the following paragraph:
"Mr. Busbee admitted that custom had given the
practice of instructng delegates the sehablsnce Of
right yet it was nevertheless, sorong in raneiple
There had been no primary meetings to appoint DEL
egates to this county meeting This was not DEL
egated body, but mere handful of men, squad of
about twenty Democrats, who had no right to dele
gate instructions. The principle was wrong, COM
mon custom to the contrary, Notwithstanding"
If YOU bad labored with your most astute ingenu-
ity to misrepresent my position before the conven-
ton, you could not have more efectually done so,
than your total misapprehenson of my remarks has
led you to do in the above paragraph. Ibid not
admit 'that custom had given the practice of in
structing delegates the sembance Of right yet new
ertheless, it was wroDg.in principle" On the con-
trary, contended ii soas not customary in an as
semblage composed of so few members Of the party,
to instruct their delegates; and that handful of
some twenty-five or thirty had no right to bind by
their action, eighteen hundred Democratic voters.

convention, and is now as all who distinctly heard
me, very well know. =.
There are other matters in your report which,
with reason, might complain Of As others, how
ever equally interested therein they if they
think proper, set themselves right.
As for the charge appearing in the report, unex-

entirely with those who entertain that opinion.

political course and history entities their sentiments
to in regard to organization and exactly what value
is placed upon those sentiments by the Democracy
of Wake county.

favor

Sickes for killing Philip Barton Key is progressing
at Washington City. On Friday, the fifth day of
the trial. the District Attorney closed the evidence
against the prisoner. This week will be devoted to
the evidence for the accused and the speeches Of
counsel. The general impression appears to be that
the jury will return verdict Of justifable homi-
eide -.
