THE NORTH CAROLINA ELECTION 1T appears
to be certain that North Carolina has gone against
"prompt action" but not for submission. The
Raleigh Standard (Union paper), speaking Of the
result, says:
"In speaking of the successful party az Union.
lists we must not be unders God saying that they
will submit to the administration Of the Govern.
ment on sectional or Black Republican princi-
pies, but that they are anxious to preserve the
Union on a CONSTITUTE onal basis, and to obtain
such guarantees as will lead to permanent re.
construction Of the Union. The Unionists enter
tain hopes and nearly all Of them strong hopes,
that the Union can and will be preserved, and
they are willing to show their faith In this respect
by their works. They are opposed TO disunion
at this time, and would regard Il at any time az
fraught with numerous and great calamities; and
they are also opposed to the attemp DTS which are
being made to Mexicanize this Republic, by
breaking itup, and mourning the hazards of revo-
luton, simply on account of the election Of MIR.

THE END OF THE BoNAPARrK-PArTKRsoy
CAsK.-This case closed in the French Courts on
the 9Th ultimo, and judgment was to be rendered
on the 18th. The indirect imputation cast upon
the honor Of the French by Mrs. Patterson In
sewing her papers In her garments, and In leav-
Ing some in tn; country, has had rather preju =
dicial effect against her. 1t is thought that the
judgment will be similar to that OF the Attorney
General; 30 that matters will stand as before The
baltimore children will still bear the name of
Bonaparte In France or elsewhere, and they will
will not at the same time, be admitted to the
succession Of the Prince Jerome, nor to the rank
OF Princes Of the Imperial family. This strikes
one, however, as strange compromising Of the
law, and sounds much more like a decision man
ufactured for contingency than regular opera.

presented with frmness and frankness that are
In themselves commendable He does not expect
to be misunderstood, and he foreshadows his pol

pecaton that IL was TO contain a relinquishment
OF United states authority In the seeded States,
or promise TO recognize the Government there
set up, and IL they have, 1t 10 not probable that
the address win leave them in doubt upon this
subject.
"Whatever may be the differences OF opinion
throughout the country upon the various subjects
OF which the Address treats IL will be very gene

Of the policy Of the new Administration. Itiscer-

he has never recanted, in which he dist nctly de-
ciares bis inability and his indsposIton "to inter.

And IL we regard him as the representative of the
nation, the only portion Of his Address that can
be construed extensively Is that portion which
most emphatically insists upon the essential unity

to his hands,
The Baltimore Sun, as was to be expected,
abuses the Inaugural without stint.
The ErehaHgs thinks the measures Of Mr.
Lincoln "mean war"
The Clipper heartily commends the Inaugural
"as genuine Union address worthy Of the fullest

man In the South as well as in the North and not
In any way obnoxious to the ultra, but honest
advocates Of Southern Rights"
