The Meeting Yesterday.

The meeting which assembled at the Theatre
in this town yesterday afternoon was large
and respectable; besides very full attendance
from the town there were large number pres
ent from the country. We are glad to say
that the best feeling prevailed and that the en-
tire assembage seemed fully to realize the alarm
ing condition Of our common country.
The people Of Craven do not want dsunion
If they can remain in the Union and enjoy all
their constitutional rights, but if they cannot
get their rights, all of them, as members Of the
confcderacy they are net only willing but de-
terlnincd to strike for independence and equal
ity out Of it. They love the Union as does all
the people of North Carolina, but they love their
honor more; and while they are not to be led
by the action of any other State, they will
make common cause with the people Of all or
any of the Southern States in 4 struggle with
a common foe.
If the North will undo what it has already
done to deprive Us Of our rights and our prop
crty and give us guarantees for the future,
North Carolina will still remain in and fight for
the Union; but if not, though her people can
not forget the gories of the past and the pres
ent grandeur of the mighty Republic, they will
pluck their star from the constellation and seek
that peace and those rights out of the Union
which have been denied them in it. While
her people are ready to go as far as any peo-
pie for the maintenance of Southern rights and
Southern honor they wish to act in concert
with, and not in advance of other Southern
States.
y number of ladies graccd the occasion by
their presence.

Census Report.

We are indebted to the kindness of Mr.. j.
H. Mason for the following census statistics
for the South side of Neuse River, in Craven
County, he having just completed his work
Whole number of whites in town and coun-
try, ,643 whole number of slaves in town
and country, 4,416; whole number Of free ne
grocs in town and country, 1,0l6 Total, TO-
O75. Number of whites in town, p 3+2 num-
Der of free negroes in town, ia number OF
slaves in town, 2,27O. Total, 1926. White
females in town and country, 2,410 white
males in town and country, 2,235.
Number of deaths during the year ending
June lst 173; number of deaths under 10
years Of age, 70.
Number of dwelling houses, 1860; number
of families, 1925 number Of farms, 214.
Mr.. Mason wishes US to return his thanks
to the citizens of that part of the county
through which he has travelled, and especially
to those whose hospitalities he has enjoyed.
His expenses for board in carvassing has only
been ttty cents, which certainly speaks well
for the hospitality of the citizens of Craven.
We will publish the statistics for the other
side of the River as soon as we can get the
statement.

News by the Mail Last Night.

Thanks to the promptness of our special cor
respondents two interesting letters were re-
ceived from Raleigh last night but we were
too crowded to get them in. VIII appear to-
morrow.
By private letter from Raleigh last night
! from distinguished source, we learn that the
| committee on Federal Relations will report to-
day. They will report in favor of State Con-
vention to meet in February.
Twenty-one young men were examined by
the Supreme Court on Monday for County
| Court Incense and passed
commissioner from Alabama has arrived
in Raleigh, and it was thought would commu-
nicate with the Legislature yesterday.
The news from Washington City is exceed
ingly gloomy. No hope seems to be entertain
ed of the perpetuity Of the Jnicn A dispatch
says:
The leading idea here is 8 central govern
ment, embracing the middle Western, and bor-
der slave States.
A State Convention assembled in New Jer-
sey on Tuesday. A dispatch says:
The Convention to consider the dangers
threatening the Union is largely attended Col.
VIM. c. Alexander was chosen President.
Com. Stocton chairman of the committee to
prepare a address, presented an address and
resolutions, both of which were adapted amid
much confusion. His address declares that
the North has committed great wrongs against
the South, and must retrace her steps by re-
pealing all laws preventing the execution Of the
Fugitive Slave Law, and allowing all citizens
of the Southern States to travel North with
their property All this the South has clear
right to, and looks not for indemnity for the
past but security for the future
The Louisiana Legislature has assembled

President to perform the duties of the Treasury

successor is appointed.

ARGUMENTS AGAINST SECESSION.

ARGUMENTS AGAINST SECESSlON.
The Alabama State Sentinel presents to its
reades the following arguments in opposition
to the secession of Alabama from the Union,
and the formation of a separate Government
The editor of the Sentinel has long been lead
ing Democrat of that State
1sDissOlve the Union and you dissolve the
fugitive slave law Do this and you convert
every State into u Canadian province. You
could not of right demand your slaves in Ar
kansas When did you ever recapture slave
from Canada or Mexico?
Now turn to the Map of the United States.
Look at the situation of Delaware and Mary
land What is to prevent their slaves from
going to PENNSYLVANIA and New Jersey? Turn
to Virginia and Kentucky. Side by side you
have Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Hi
nois. The river is frozen in winter. 1t is
drv or shallow in summer. A man can swim
it. cross it in boat, on plank, a raft, or log,
at any season.
Look at Missouri, Arkansas and Texas,
particularly Missouri There is Illinois on the
east Iowa on the north, and Kansas on the
west, all free States. Dissolve the Union, and
they become to Missouri, each Of them, foreign
Governments, precisely such as Canada and
Mexico, where your slave, once he enters, had
as well be dead or free
ssIn the Union as things remain, the slave
knows he is liable to be pursued and brought
back, and will not hazard the attempt TO e6-
cape Out of the Union, and he soon learns
that every farm house, every hamlet and vii
lage is the city Of refuge, and beyond question
would 90 any length to get over the line
Here are five States in this condition. They
cannot dispense with the Constitution and the
fugitive slave law
But we will form treaties Yes, when one
can make a bargain and have things all his own
way We have treaties with England and
Mexico, but none we know Of reached the case.
If we cannot live together under the Constitu-
ton, or consent to have the laws enforced, it is
folly to delude ourselves with the hopes OF a
treaty for the return Of fugitives from either
Justice or labor.
But we will pursue our slaves, if need be,
with hundred men" Yes, and they will re-
sst with two hundred men" Then we will
bring five hundred" ''And they will bring a
thousand"
'sWhat comes next but an armed invasion,
and proclamation offering freedom to the slave:
These five States poll nearly half a million,
more than two-fifths Of the entire vote Of the
South"

The SenafOTSllfD.

The most gratifying piece of intelligence
about the State Capitol is the fact that there
are not CIingman men enough in the Legisla-
ture to elect that arch-demagogue to the U. 5.
Senate, His defeat which is thought to be
certain, will he hailed everywhere by the mass
es with rejoicing. 1t is such otfice-seeklng,
time-serving creatures as Clingman that have
brought the present troubles upon US, and if
the peoples representatives elect him to satisfy
the dictatOrs about the Capitol, let them be
made to feel the peoples displeasure.
DEAD BRoKB.-Uncle Sam has suspended !
Dead broke and unable to pay his debts. The
poor under clerk implores for wages already
earned the weather-beaten tar who has faith
fully discharged his duty in the service of mis-
country is discharged without G5ry red, and
has to meet his wife and little ones after an
absence of two or more years with an empty
pocket And how, pray, has all this been
brought about? Let Mr.. Treasurer Cobb,
President Buchanan, and others who have had
the inside track answer We are confident
there is something rotten in Washington.

Then the angel touched mine eye-lids,
And touch'd the forming cloud,
And its sable rim disparted.
And it fed with murky shroud.
There missing Pleiad ...--..
Mid all that sister race,
The Southern cross shone radiant forth,
And the Pole-star kept lis place.
So knew it was the angel
Who woke the hymning strain.
That at our dear Redeemer's birth
Peald out Ger Bethlehem's plain,
And still its heavenly key tone
My listening country held,
For all her cousteilated stars
The diapason swelld. L H. S.

WATCH WELL-We see that a secession
writer in the Columbus (Ga.) Times advocates
the establishment of monarchy by tn people
of the South and the substitution of a HING for
President. Are the people of North Caroli-
ma, slaveholding or non-slaVeholding, ready to
bow the neck for the kingly yoke2 II not we
warn them to pause before they follow the
Cotton States" out of that Union which has
hitherto protected them. If we dissolve the
Union the South is not likely to become Re-

# there is to BE- q division OF this country
let the New England States from whence ali
the trouble orig. g.n"Iiy sprang be LETT hiSh and
drv to themselves Let tbcm dwell alone in
unity and JrfoI2m-Nria1 It to thcir hearts cor

comDltt can be fara.oI out OF the Southern,
Middle Western and Southwestern States.
We bclicvc in preserving the Union i1possib!c,
consist ent with our rights, but il not let New
England be left out in the cold to take care Of
her own isms Will South Carolina ''wait for
shc Wagon ?" We hope So If she will good
can come out of Nazareth yet, for New York,
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois and other States
would rather re-embrace slavery than to cut
loose from the Southern States. Touching
this point of reconstruction of the Government,
in the event Of a separation the n Y. Journal
Of Commerce. says:
Now, what we proposes is that the New
England States, with Massachusetts at their
head, withdraw from this disgraceful alliance
with Shareholders, and leave the Middle and
Southern States to preserve their heretofore
peaceful and friendly relations. This done, we
will soon have peace and quiet.
New England out of the Union could have
national bank, could increase the fishing bOun-
ties. give bounties to their manufacturers on
their exports, have a tariff for protection, and
make such laws as would suit their peculiar
notions.
In case of o foreign war, they would not
have to support it if they deemed it unjust, nor
threaten to secede, by appointing Commission
ers to meet at Hartford to embarrass the gov
ernment, as they did in the war of 1912.
While the South stood by the government
through all its embarrassments, the British fleet
was supplied from the New England States with
provisions and supplies and blue lights were
were thrown up at New London to inform the
fleet when our ships of war attempted to get to
sea at night, so that they might be captured
by the enemy All these outrages we had
wished to forget; but few years prosperity
has made her troublesome again. Her object
is to rule this government upon her own ideas,
or to ruin it. This the national and conserva-
tive men Of the Middle States and believe;
and this we will not submit to. So, the sooner
we separate from New England, the better for
all concerned.

THE PREEIDENTs MESSAGE.

This anxiously- y-looked-for, and very remarka-
BILE state paper has made its appearance. We
speak of it as a remarkable document, and
never was there stranger document issued by
Democratic President. 1t is an appropriate
conclusion of one Of the most unfortunate and
disastrous National Administrations that ever
was called upon by the American people to
preside over their destinies. Timid and incon-
sistent in it's policy, wavering and unfaithful to
its friends, and crouching and suppliant to its
enemies, almost from its birth, it forfeited the
support. and now at its death giving utterance
to oppinions utterly at war with the basis of
the States Rights Democracy, it has, also,
lost the respect ofthe party that caledit into ex
istence.
Born Federalist, James Buchanan has, in
this document, abandonded the party that
elevated him to his present position, and re-
turned to his first love Let him go.
