THE CRY OF PAgTY.-He who raises the cry of
party this day is neither good citizen nor good
man.
Democrats, Wings, and Opposition men, should
act as brethren to-day in a common cause against
common enemy. He who awakes slumbering polt
ical quarrels and resurrects buried political feuds in
such crisis this deserves the execrations of all
honest patriots. Argus.
So says the Norfolk Argus, disunion paper, and
so say We. The issue now is Union or disuniOn.-
Some weak preudiced or corrupt persons are still
striving to use the old Democratic organization to
advance the schemes of the diSunionists We warn
the people against these persons No true follower
Of Jefferson and jackson can be a disunionist De-
mocracy implies confidence in the people and in
their capacity for selfgovernment Disunion for
existing causes means civil war; and civil war will
destroy Democracy slave property, and every thing
we hold dear.

SEWARD AND THE DIsUNIoNrsTs on THE SAME PLAT
FoRM.--The disunionists, in order to sire the
Southern mind and drive our sober people into rev.
oluton, are constantly reminding them that Seward
has advanced the doctrine of 'irrepressible
fcf between free and slave labor In his late speech
in the Senate Seward shows signs of backing down
from this position. He says: ~
1.-The different forms of labor if slavery were not
perverted to purposes of political ambition need not
constitute an element of strife in the Confederacy"
But this doctrine of the "irrepressible confict"
is now taken up by the disunionists. Mr. Spratt
the commissioner from South Carolina in his speech
before the Convention of Florida, says:
"Wlthin this government two societies have be-
come developed, as distinct in form and constitution
as any two beings in animated nature. The
one is bond or free labor and the other slave labor
There as and must be an irrepreSsible conflict
6etceen hem and 10 best to realize the truth"
If this doctrine Of the "irrepressible conflict" be
true, ohat is to become Of the ,ohte la6orers Of the
South?
As Col. Brown said, in his speech in the Senate
OF this State the 18th December last agitation OF
the slave question "between the extreme North and
South, thrown like shuttle back and FORTH" has
been kept up until the Union has been involved in
deadly perils The two extremes have done this
work. Northern men have obtained seats in Con-
gress by agtatng the slavery question, and South
ern men have obtained seats in Congress in the same
way. Let stop be put at once and forever to this
agitation.

DR1v1NG OUT Poor WHITE MENl-The Mobile
Mercury, of the 9th ut., leading secession organ
in Alabama, comes to US with leading article
headed "Vigilance Needed" and among other
things, says:
SD. Slaves are constantly associating with low
white people, who are not slave owners. Such
people are dangerous to community, and should
be made to leave our CITY,"
This is the spirit of secession all white people
who do not own negroes, are slow white people ~
they are dangerous to any community, and ought
to be made to leave the cities and towns and States
where they are! This accords with Rhett's doc
trine of allowing none to vote but those who own
land or negroes.-Louisburg Eagle

the purpose of expressing their deep sorrow at the
death of their fellow member, j. G. Littlejohn, the
following preamble and resolutions were unanimous
ly adopted:
WHEREAS, God, in his mysterious providence,
has seen fit to pluck from our midst, while yet in
the bloom of youth, our much beloved brother,
j. G. Litteiohn, whose death has occasioned an IT.
reparable loss both to his family and society, there
fore be it,
ResoIpea, 1st That while we do but recognize
the hand of the Almighty in this affiiction, We
would nevertheless express our bereavement in the
loss of one so Young so aniable and so virtuous :;
ore whose usefulness as a member of this Society
was felt by all, and whose accomplishments gave
promise of usefulness to his country.
Cd That although nothing but the corroding hand
of time and calm resignation to the will of God,
can obliterate the memory of this affection from the
hearts of those bound to him by the tenderest ties
of nature, yet we would mingle our sorrows with
those of his dear relatives in this their rreparabe
loss.
Sd. That we offer to the family of the deceased
warmest sympathies, and affectionately recon-
mend them to the guidance Of Him who docs not
willingly afilict or grevc the children of men,"
4th. That our Hall be draped in mourning and
each member the usual badge of mourning
for the space of thirty days.
9Th. That copy of these resolutions be sent to
the parents of the deceased and also be sent to The
Charlotte Bulletin, Louisburg Eagle and the Ra
leigh Standard for publication, with the request that
other papers copy.
