PROPOSED Fusion IN New YoRK.-The effort to
unite the Breckenridge and Douglas men in New
York appears to have failed. There is but little
ground to hope for union against Lincoln. The
Breckenridge committee characterize in severe
terms the conduct of the Douglas committee in re-
fusng fair terms for afuson. The proposed fusion
having failed, great "Union Meeting" was held at
the Cooper Institute, New York, on Monday night
last Speeches were made by Mayor Wood, Mr.. Hill
lard, of Alabama and others The journal of Com
merce however, despairs of the result of
this latter movement unless with the aid of the
Douglas and Breckenridge parties and that can
hardly be hoped for. Present appearances indicate
that New York will vote for Lincoln

JUDGE DoUGLAs.-Mr Douglas addressed large
gathering at Clifton Springs New York, on the 18th.
In answer to question propounded to him he said
Il cannot believe there is man in America of Or
binary intelligence, who does not know that hold
that the people Of a Territory, Uhile a Territory
and during Territorial condition, may introduce
exclude, abolish or regulate slaUery just as they
please / have said that North and South and held
the same doctrine every where" Is there man in
North Carolina who holds that doctrine? If the
people Of Territory can exclude slavery while in a
exercise sovereignty in State Convention, then the
Territories belong to the people who inhabit them,
and not to the people of the several States.

State Medical Society.

We are under obligations to some friend for q
copy of the minutes of the eleventh annual meet
ing of the Medical Society of North Carolina held
at Washington in April last
The officers of the Society for the present year
are, Dr. N. j. Pittman of Marlborough, President;
Drs. Summerell, Murphy, Hodges and Norcom,
Vice Presidents; DR.. Thomas of Wilmington, Cor.
and Rec Secretary; DR.. Graham, of Kenansvi.le,
Treasurer. DR.. D. L. Tayloe, of Washington, is
the orator for the next meeting DR.. G. E. johnson
and Dr. S. S. Satchwe are the Editors of the Med
ical Journal The following gentlemen were ap-
pointed delegates to the American Medical Associa-
ton, which is to meet in Chicago on the first Tues
day in June, 1861: Drs. Dickson, Arendell, Sum-
merell, Howard, johnson, Thomas, Happoldt, Hall,
Tayloe, Custis Warren and Strudwick
The whole number of members of the Society,
since April, 1850, when it was organized, is 233.
Of these Drs Norwood, Stith Meares, Watson,
Moore, McTnnon and Benjamin have removed from
the State; and Drs. Taylor, Seawell, Tucker, Jef-
freys, Cameron, Battle, FaIson, Long Speller, Tay
lor, Gotten and Bingham have died.
The next meeting of the Society will be held in

miugton, and is very handsomely executed.

with might and main against Bell Does none of
the old fire animate your bosoms when you see US
thus engaged with the common Adversary
Whatever the result may be elsewhere, we feel
sure that North Carolina will vote for Breckenridge
and Lane. AT one time we entertained doubts as
to the result but recent information fully sustains
US in claiming the State for them. But if
by possibility, the State should vote for Bell,
what load of responsibility will rest on those De-
mocrats who differed with and opposed the majority.
Are the Douglas men of this State, who seek only
to defeat Lincoln, and not Breckenridge, and who
would be mortified to the State vote for Bell,
prepared for this responsibility? We appeal to the
Douglas men to think well upon these things. The
country is certainly danger We all see and feel
that it is. Union among Democrats can alone pre-
serre the UnIOn-preserve it from commissions from
alarms, from imminent danger, if not from disrup-
ton ITSELF Let forget men, let us sink pride of
opinion let overcome prejudices let US act like
patriots and men in the crisis which is upon us,
not thinking of the past, but only of the best way
to provide for the present and the future.

~ Gov. Wise has written letter dated Sep
TENDER 9TH, in which he denies that Mr. Breckin-
ridge petitioned for the pardon of John Brown.
Such denial was hardly necessary. The Governor
closes his letter as follows:
1T is time that the slave States were ready for
the revolution which is coming inevitably, with the
purpose to take from them not only their personal
property in negro slaves but their political property
in this glad and glorious Union. Let neither class
of rights be invaded; tight first and don't let the
invaders seize the power to dsarm you"
w confess we do not understand the Governor.
In one letter he says he will flight in the Union,"
leaving the inference that he will not secede on &C.
count of Lincoln's election; in another he says
fight first, and don't let the invaders seize the
power to disarm you" Now, we opposed to
fighting. The slaveholdng States are not so weak
as to fear the abolitionsts They can take care of
themselves in any event They will fight when
their honor ard their vital interests require it, and
not before. Mr.. Wise is an alarmist. Our "per-
sonal property in negro slaves" is in no danger.
If the abotionists want our negroes, let them come
and take them. They might come, but they would
never return They know this as well as we do.

H The Senior Editor of the Fayetteville Oh
serper, writing to his paper from New York under
date of September says:
81 regret to see that Col F. A. Lumsden, one of
the Editors and Proprietors of the New Orleans
Picayune, was lost, with his family, in the awful
steamboat accident on Lake Michigan this morning
He was native of Fayetteville, of siderable
ability, great enterprise and remarkable in
life. Like many other successful men, he graduated
in printing Office Tin Raleigh.) He was one of the
orignators of the Pieayune. which soon became the
most popular paper in the South ...
/ am sorry to see that the Breckenridge and Doug
las committees of this State have not been able to
agree upon any terms of union. l am not advised
of any further effort to unite but hear that there
will be, for without it this State must go for Lin
coin"

GIN. WALKER-The next news from; General
Walker is likely to be, that the grey eyeG man Of
destiny" is near the end of bis career if indeed it
has not already terminated He was in full retreat
from Truxo, having failed to receive accessions TO
his force from the native population and liable at
any time to encounter an Overwhelming number Of
the enemy, both volunteers and regular troops It
will not be strange if every man In his company,
not exceeding one hundred in all, share the fate Of
Lopez. Several vessels are reported to have sailed
recently from Southern ports with recruits for Gen.
Walker, but they will be singnlarly fortunate If
they can evade the British force which is co-opera
ting with the native government and effect ajunc-
ton with the main body. If the reports which
have come to hand at all reliable the great ll
buster has reckoned without his host in thus at
tempting to revolutionize all Central America.
