They ara not Disunionists.

John c. Breckenridge and Joseph Lane arc not
dis,mionists Both of them have peried their lives
"n the fore front of the hottest battles" to extend
the boundaries of the Union and TO vindicate its
honor They are just as loyal to the Union accord
inc to the Constitution as any men that breathe,
and they would be among the last to advise nasty
action looking to the formation of Southern Re-
public"
In supporting Breckenridge and Lane we arc not
striving for the destruction but for the preservation
of the Union Every movement by Southern Brock
inrilse men, and every word uttered, the tendency
of which is towards disunion except last resort
is calculated to injure, and ooW iure the Of
Breckenridge ard Lane. We shall not cease to pro-
test against such movements and such language.
We intend to go with North Carolina Whatever
she may command we will do, but we shah insist on
having an equal voice with our fellow-citzens in de-
termining what shall be done. The people are not
to be moved by infammatory appeals, nor by calls
in advance "to arms" We are for the C0NSTI-
TUITION and the UNION and therefore for the con-
sentative men of the day-BRECKINRIDGE and

RICHMOND. Va. Oct 9nth 1850

RICHMOND, Va, Oct 3Oth, 1860
Mr. EDITOR: To one, unacquainted with city life
proper, as am, Richmond is great town, Boosting
population of upwards of $4,000 SOULS with long
streets densely built up, and community as eager
after excitement as is New York, though not on so
large scale Since my arrival, l have attended
several political meetings; have heard Herschell
V. johnson, before an audience of $1,000 He is
forcible debater, and quite good hand to plead
bad cause his audience, representing all parties
applauded him yociferously, and | doubt not, the
Georgian has laid the deceptire JUNCTION to his sunny
SOUL that his ticket will carry Virginia. Well, per-
haps it may, but, with the lights before me" |
| don't believe it Lincoln's election, and the proba-
bic consequences absorbS every other topic. There
seems to be fearful looking forward to the threat
ening disaster; and old men, of whatever party,
trembngly deplore the present state OF our below
ed country; and, while the union men declare that
their voice is still for peace" they protest against
any action on the part of the North to coerce any
Southern State that may choose to withdraw from the
Union, back; and, they swear, with tear of sor-
row in their eye that the Lincoln league never
cross Virginia. So Mr., Editor, it being conceded
that the archtraitor to his country, Lincoln ao be
elected, we as nation, are now upon the brink of
civil. war
On Sunday, (morning and afternoon) military
| funeral passed my boarding house. On each occa-
sion the turnout was immense, and the idle popula-
ton seemed 10 ency the scene hugely for the streets
| and side walks thronged.
There are several importing dry goods houses in
this city. One Of them sold in one day. last week,
one hundred and fifty thousand dollars worth of
goods to Southern merchants, who had been North,
but becoming disguised with the political aspect of
! affairs retraced their steps to Richmond.
The number Of Medical students in attendance on
the Medical College, is 1872 North Carolina sends
secenteen, and the County of Wake, seren of this
number. The N. c. delegation consists of Thos j.

~ The last number of the Church Lnteuigencer
makes the following truthful remarks in relation to
the present critical condition of the country:
1t is not duty a religious organ to enter
even into any detailed account of the political con-
dition of our common country. We accept it
fact, which we believe none will deny, that never
since the beginning of our existence as United Re
public has there been much real cause for ankle
ties and fears for the future, as at this present
time. We will not even touch upon the causes Of
this lamentable condition of our beloved country
With the past we now have nothing to do, but the
future may yet be one of peace and united interest,"
if we wise in time. One cause only will we
venture to mention as in measure conducive to
our present difficulties; that good and Cirtu0uS
men, Christian men, have, from love of peace and
ease kept back too much from performing their
duties as Christian citizenS-have given up the
ballot box too much to ignorant and corrupt men,
and have given up the reins of government to men
who have made politics trade. If we would have
our Republic a perpetual blessing it must be al
ways governed by the virtuous and wise"
The only hope for the country is in God and the
people. We fear the politicians will not be able to
save it.

all of the 3lst compliments unknown and I'M
mentioned portion of its fcllow-ctizens, as follows
Look out for lies on Bell and Everett between this
and next Tuesday" Who it is that is to do this
lying the Herald does not state. We beg that pa
per to be easy. We do not believe that any portion
of our fellow-citizens will crafty those who may
be on the "look out" for this swarm of lies pre-
dicted by the Herald, for the reason that if they
were disposed to lie, Bell and Everett too weak
to justify it. No. Mr.. Herald, the biggest liar in
the State would content himself with telling very
small lie on Bell and Everett. The ticket is too
weak to bear chopper.
The same number of the Herald calls on the peo-
pie to "strke till the last armed foe expires" This
is correct. 1t would be wrong to strike even an
EARNED foe" after he had expired" The Herald
also advises the people to "strike for their affairs
and their fires" Very good. This as fire weather.
