DERArE IN THE SENArE-Mr Davis, of Mississip-
p, addressed the Senate on Monday last in support
of resolutions heretofore introduced by.him on the
subject Of slavery. These are the same resolutions
adopted some weeks since by Senatorial caucus.
Mr. Davis justified the action of the seeding delega
tions at Charleston. Mr.. Clngman followed Mr.
Davis in reply Mr.. Douglas gave notice that he
would reply to Mr.. Davis on Thursday.
These Senatorial caucus resolutions are destined,
we fear, to be prolific source of dscord to the Dem
ocratic party Whether designed by Mr.. Davis or
not to "precptate the cotton States into revolu.
tion," their discussion and adoption can be of no
service to the countrythe opinion of the fre-eatng
disorsanizing, secession Washington Constitution
to the contrary notwithstanding.

ganization, and it is said to have for its object the

RALEIGH. N. c., WEDNEs DAY, MAY IS, 1860.

GooD NEws.-A gentleman, from Surry county,
whose business is entirely one of travel remarked
last week that Gov Ellis would largely increase his
vote in Surry and Ashe, stating that his victory
would be more decided than that in the'last cam
paign. Another writing to us from Haywood, up
on business says: "Pool will do very little up
here, we have antiad ralorem wings and ad ralo
rem democrats. the former will vote with US, the
latter do not believe in this Convention system to
attain an object which according to Mr.. Pool ought
to be Incorporated in our Constitution at the earliest
possible day. they know that this plan will not in.
corporate it for years if at ALL therefore they will
vote with U.S." ,-..--.... .....-
Yet another from Cranes Creek Moore county,
says: The wings arc hocking to US. Our men
stand firm. Fay. Carolinian. - s... -
We have recently heard from Forsyth, Chat
ham, Johnston, Pitt Craven, Lenoir, Greene, and
other Counties and we can truly say, that the ac-
counts are all encouraging. Mr.. Polls PROPOSE
ton to tao erery thing meets with no favor in the
Democratic ranks, while to many Of his own party
it is not acceptable. Mr. Pool no doubt thought
that he had discovered and was using the Democrat
ic ad ealorem, but the gentlemen is mistaken. Mr..
Pool in his attempts to play the Democrat reminds
us Of the ass in the lions skin.
We learn also that the recent unfortunate seces-
sion of portion Of Southern delegates at Charles
ton, has had no injurious effect on the Democratic
party in this State. The truth is, sense of dam
ger has drawn the party closer together. Its COL
umns are now compacted, and it is more vgi!ant
and determined than at any former period. Glo-
rious old party! 1t is equal to every crisis. 1t
carries the ark of the Constitution on its shoulders,
and though it may stumble it will not fall. 1t
looks to Baltimore for the man to lead us against
the foe, and it will not look in vain The 18th of
June, 1860, will be memorable in our annals. 1t
will witness the reunion and reconstruction of the
only organization which is national in its spirit and
purposes; and from that period up to the election
the Democratic flag will fly in every State, to be
crowned in November with the most important vic
tory ever achieved in this country Brother Demo
Gratis, stand to your guns! Wait for the word. It
will be given in time, and the cry will then be- as at
Waterloo, up Guards and at them!"
