For the Standard
Mr.. EDIroR:-By reference to this weeks Stand
ard see that R. P. Dick has made call to the
friends Of the Douglas ticket to meet at Raleigh, in
convention, on Thursday, the 3Oth of August for
the purpose of organizing for the Presidential cam
paign. Now, as an entire private in every respect
politically in the language of that gentleman, say,
leone together National Democrats, and let see
if we can unite on Breckenridge and Lane" Does
any sane man believe that if both tickets run in
this State that either possibly get majority
over Bell and Everett? think not; then why talk
of running Douglas ticket in the State, when near
ly all the Democratic presses in the State have de-
cared themselves for Breckenridge and Lane. and
when three fourths of the delegates from the State
helped to nominate Breckenridge and Lane; and
when numbers of the electors for the different dis
trcts in the State have resigned their Office because
they were in favor of Douglas? speak the minds
of myself and numbers of my neighbOrs (who were
in favor of the nomination of Douglas by the ma
tional convention) when say that / have lost all
hope of carrying this State, unless the Democracy
can unite on Breckenridge and Lane. l will. and
must admit that during the time of the Baltimore
convention waited impatiently, hoping to hear ev-
cry day that Douglas was nominated; bnt looked
in vain, but to my sad disappointment the news
came that the convention had split, and each wing
had nominated its separate candidate, neither con-
venton being what wonld call national, yet both
of them claimed nationality. 1t is well known now
that Breckinridges friends at the North are now
uniting on Douglas, and that Douglas friends at
the South are uniting on Breckenridge; ard say
why not let each side give mp their preferences as
to men and go for the Union against Lincoln. Let
Douglas friends run their ticket where Douglas is
most popular and let Breckinridgc's friends do the
same, and each side elect their electors, and then
which of the two gets the strongest vote, let
all of the electors unite on the same. consider
this is the only way the Union can be preserved,
and the time has come for US to let men 90 and
save the Union--the Union of course would be safe
with either Douglas OF Breckinridge; but how
would it be with Lincoln? Then, national Demo-
Gratis, come to the convention, with an inscription
written in the centre of your hearts, for the
Union and not for men.

DOUGLAS MEETING.-We publish to-day, at the
request of gentlemen concerned the proceedings of
a Douglas meeting held in the north end Of this
county some days SINCE While we do this cheer
fully, as matter of courtesy it is equally due to
the Democratic party of this county, that we state
few facts that they may not occupy false posi-
ton before the world.
In the first place, we have every reason to believe
that the meeting in question did not originate with
Democrats but the gentlemen who have generally
acted and voted with the Opposition. We do not
question their sincerity in seeking to promote the
cause Of Judge Douglas. But we do object to their
action being taken as an indication of Democratic
sentiment
In the second place, those who oficiated in the
meeting-at least the majority of them-are men,
bers of the Opposition party, and are not therefore
proper counsellors for the Democracy.
In the third place, the Democrats of this county
are for Breckenridge and enthusiastically and
unchangeaby so,-and to represent them in any 9TH
er hight would be to place them in false position
In the fourth place, the Democracy of Buncombe
fully understand the nature of the present compli-
Gated Presidential fight, and need no advice as to
their line Of action.
1t is well known that there is no Douglas electo-
raj ticket in this State; and there will be none-
Breckenridge and Lane the choice of the people,
and the only effect which could possibly result from
Douglas ticket would be the confusion and proba-
BILE defeat Of the party in the State In such an
event Bell, and Everett might possibly carry the
State; and we may add, the only hope the friends
Of the latter have of carrying single Southern
State is based upon division of the Democratic
party between Breckenridge and Douglas. Let the
Democracy look well to it that no such division oc-
ours, and frown upon every attempt to create div
erson in favor of Douglas at this late day Nothing
but mischief can come of it.
We have deemed it our duty to make these re-
marks intending no disrespect to the gentlemen en-
may be Of their way Of thinking -Asaev;lse Nesos.

BRECKENRIDGE AND LANE RATIFICATION
MEETING AND PICNIC, AT DIX. DAVIS
MILL IN FRANKLIN COUNTY N. G..

According to notice, there was Breckenridge and
Lane ratification meeting at DIR. Thomas Davis Mill
on the 3lst July. There was large crowd in at.
tendance from Franklin, Nash. Warren, and Halifax
counties. Loud demonstrations from the Cannon's
mouth were the first exercises and that it was that
called the people to the spot the ringing of bells
betokens the beginning of exercises in cities. The
meeting was organized on motion of DR.. Davis call
ing W. D. Coppidge to the Chair, and requesting
Benjamin j. Bount of Nash, to act as Secretary
At the request of the Chairman Mr.. Julius Guon,
of Nash, to explain the object of the meeting,
and in doing so, he had to explain himself; for he
said he Graded in Whggery, reared in Wing
gerry, and entered manhood in Whiggery but that
now he sees the error CT his way that he sees the
true Democratic party to be the hope of the coun-
try; the only Unionsaving organizations and that
in Breckenridge and Lane are conferred the hopes of
the country. That it has been through its benign
influences that the country has advanced, step by
STEP to its present enviable position in the great
family of nations Notwithstanding this, old party
friends cried that 1t was running the country. I
would like to follow him through his speech, but
should signally fail to do him justice He conclud-
ed by offering the following resolutions which were
UNANIMOUSLY adopted by the mesting.
Resolced That we approve of the action of our
delegate in the Baltimore Convention, in promptly
withdrawing, when he saw the Constitutional rights
of the South about to be compromised
Resolred, That we recognize Jno c. Breckenridge
as the only regular and true candidate of the Ma
tional Constitutional Democracy for the Presidency
of the United States and Gen. JOS Lime as the only
true and regular candidate for the Vice Presidency
and that we do hereby endorse and ratify these
nominations, and pledge them our warm and un-
wavering support in the present campaign
Resolred, That in our present Chief Magistrate
we recognize true and trustworthy statesman,
whose large experience and patriotism are devoted
to the best interests of the country.
After the reading and adoption of these resolu-
TONS the large assembage repaired to the table to
partake of refreshments in the shape of the best of
everything in the way Of eatables and drinkables.
for which We were all indebted to neighbors. and
particularly to the energy of Dr. DAVIS. After this
feast went back to the feast of reason and were
feasted on eloquent speeches from J. NJ Stone, of
Nash, who endorsed fully the resolutions adopted,
in a sound able, convincing speech. DR.. Thomas
Davis, who made patriotic, stirring appeal to the
country to stand by their nominees, and declared
the resolutions all right and by various other gen.
tlemen Of note. Frank Johnsons Brass Band was
in attendance, dscoursing sweet sounds, inspiring
the crowd with patriotic feelings.

MEETING OF THE STATE EDUCATIONAL
ASSOCIATION.

BRECKENRIDGE AND LANE IN FLoRDA.-The Pensa.
cola Observer speaks of late meeting in that city
to endorse the nominations of Breckenridge and Lane
that cit was one of the largest most harmonious,
and enthusiastic political gatherings which have ever
been in Pensacola at this season of the year.
The old war-horsF of Escamba democracy, Judge
Jordan on taking the CHAIR was exceedingly happy
in the delivery of his pertinent patriotic and stir
ring speech, which was so warmly welcomed by the
admirers of the young Kentucky statesman ...-,
Senator Mallory being loudly called for, assembled
the stand and addressed the meeting for over an
hour in an eloquent and convincing argument in
vndication of the action of the Southern delegation
at Baltimore, and in support Of the nominees and
platform of principles which was called to ratify.-
He said that the gentlemen composing our national
ticket able, patriotic and constitutional men,
and stood upon platform of principles that no
Southern man should disapprove. He reviewed in
an interesting manner all the important incidents
connected with the split at Charleston and the two
nominations at Baltimore and closed with an appeal
to all democrats to rally around the standard of
Justice, Equality, and the Union.'" r.
We cannot refrain from expressing our gratlfica-
ton that Senator Mallory has thus vigorously taken
up the active advocacy of our glorious cause His
counsels will have deserved weight in the campaign
The other speakers were Hon. I. j. Judge and Col
j. F. Clements, Of Alabama the latter of whom de-

dicted far stealing slaves in Tennessee. 1t is diff
cult to how interior State could go further in
dissolving it. But the Constitution being the Union,
the Union can never be dissolved by the assertion
of rights under the Constitution.
A slight consideration of the motives which led
to the formation of the Union, will cause the most
timd to dismiss all fears of its dissolution The
anti slavery sentiment was as strong in Massachu-
sets in 1889 as now the people of New England
as open to consideration of interest now as they
were then. 1t was not any scntimentalism towards
the South, which induced them to unite with u.s. under
the Constitution, nor was puritancal fanaticis,n
avaing to prevent it. They agree to the provisions
Of the constitution respecting slaues in consideration
Of commercial advantages; that consideration is as
great now as it was then. Interest rules nations
and upon the motires aohich formed the Union aoe
must rely for ITS preservation So long as the South
produces cotton and the North consumes it so long
as the North manufactures and imports for the
South, the Union is safe.
For the same considerations which then moved
the Northern States, they would enter into similar
agreement tomorrow. They will not risk those
solid advantages, which have made their wealth,
either to consummate costly injustice or to crafty
o morbid fanaticsm. The North will not dissolve
the Union in preference to giving us our clear and
adudicated rights If it ever does So it will form
new one on better terms for us, in less than week
I afterwards. t-..s
1t is idle, then, to hold up the dissolution of the
Union as scare-crow to brighten Southern meu
from the assertion of their most precious rights
into submission to measures, which will result in
the loss Of things dearer than the Union which the
Union was entered into to protect-life, liberty and
property. trust that the people of North Carolina
will unanimously join in the claim of rights which
the Democratic platform has made for them sc
that if finally evils should come the people Of thu
