U0 JEFFERSONIAN ’ ■ * * Charlotte, North-Carolinii. TUESDAY MORNING, APRIL 18, 1S13. GENERAL SAUNDERS. W? arc pleased to see, lhai ihe democracy of the Wake district are unanimous in their preference of the Hon. Romulus M. Saunders as iheir candi date for Congress. We some time since published the proceedings of a meeting in Wayne county, at which he was nominated ; and to that nomination a meeting of the democracy of Wake havt; responded in gallant style. After the resolution of nomination was adopted, a committee waited on Gen. S., who appeared in the meeting; and, (in the language of the Standard) “ spoke for one hour or more with great forcc and eloquence. He pointed to the broken promises and faith of the last Congress, in terms that carried conviction to every hearer, though tem pered with the most respectful language to our po- I litical opponents. He advocated a reform of the ! abuses and expenditures of our General Govern- ' ment. Is in favor of a material and thorough mod ification of the Tariff He opposes the distribution act, and the assumption of the State debts. Every i person who heard him could see in every blow of , his battle-axe the veteran standard bearer of demo- I cracy in 1840, and could but feel that “ woe be un to the political onnOlienl who ventures a lancc with Democratic candidate for President of ihe United States: JOHN C. CALHOUN, OF SOUTH-CAROLLNM. Democratic candidate for Congress in the 2d Disfricf, BUUTON CRAIGE, OF CATAWBA COl'NTY. " The great populnrpart y is already rallied almost maxse around the banner which is loading the party to iie final ter- uniph. The few that etill lag will soon be rallied under the nmple folds : on that banner ii^ inscribed FnEP. Tbaoe; Low i)uTiEs ; No Debt; Separation fbom B.\nks ; Kconomv, Rethenchment, and a Strict adhebence to the conpti- TUTtON. Victory in such a cause will be great and glorious; and if its principles be faitlilully and firmly adhereti to after i . .-r It is acbit'vcd, muclv will it redound to the honor of those by | i meetiri^, at ^ h -rvMU won; nnd long will it pcrpptuatc ibc i preeiued on yesterday liberty and pros;ierity of the counlry.’^’—fohn C. Calhoun, I people of Wake, lor t political oppOO^if^l him.” In obedience to a resolution of the meeting, Gen. S. afterwards wrote the following report of his speech: April, Ith. 1843.

On the receipt ot' the resolutions adopted at the mee ting in Wayne, proposing me as a Candidate for Congress, I resolved to await the action of other portions of' the District,, and unless the people of my own county should respond favorably to the noini- I nation, 1 should not accept, even if consii>lent with 1 my inclination to be a candidate.

In regard to the Presidency, whilst my preference was for Mr. Calhoun, as mosi likely to carry out those grrat measures of reform, w’hich the interest of the Country required and tlie people demanded, I should most certainly submit to the nomination of any other Democrat in whose favor a majority of the great body of the party might unite. Tliat in order to ascertain correctly the wishes of that ma- joritj', I thought a national Convention should not meet earlier than May, 1S44; after having the ac- I have fiefbre referred, sliould be known; that ihe Delegates to the Convention should be se lected from districts, either Congressional or Elec toral, or that in Convention they should not vote by States, but per capita, that is, each delegate for him self. That a nominatian by a Convention thus con stituted and thus voting, would carry with it such moral weight, aa to defy division or opposition.— That as a Representative, whatever might be my individual preference, I should feel bound to carry out honestly and faithfully the wiahes of the major ity of the i3emocrata in ihe District as expressed at the ballot box. Such I believe are the material points embiaced in my remarks, which arc entire ly UV yonr |iisp03al.

It is not our business, however, lo interfi^rG in these w’hig squabbles. We have our candidate in the field, and we intend to elect him if we can, though there should be a dozen federal candidates. Of one thing we are well satisfied—we can beat Col. Barringer as easily as w'c could any w'hig in the district. ^ ELECTIONS. Glorious Ylclory in Connecticut.—In the recent elections in Connecticut, the democracy of the nut meg Slate have gained a glorious victory. Gov. Cleveland is re-elected by 250 votes majority over the federal and abolition candidates; in all four of the congressional districts democrats are elected; nnd a majority of both Houses of the legislature are democratic—on joint ballot, about 30. The mem bers of Congress elect are—Thomas H. Seymour, John Stewart, George S. Catlin, Samuel Simons. Well done, Connecticut. Another trial was made on the 3d instant, to elect members from the five districts in Massachusetts, where no choice was made at the two former trials. Charles Hudson (fed.) was elected in the 5th, but no choice in the other four. In Rhode Island, the old Charter, or federal party has Bucceoded in ^acting their (jovernor and a ma jority of both brf^ncbcs of the legislature. Alas I poor Rhode Island.

Revival of the Humbugs of 1840.—A late num ber of the Richmond Whig, the leading Federal paper in Virginia, has in its columns the picture of inst, to nominate Rohcj-t H. Morris, Esq, ‘JjG pre sent Mayor as a candidate for re-election ; and from the proceedings thereof, as reported by the Herald, we extract the following: “ Mr. Frank Waddle then rose and presented the following resolution: Resolved, That in the opinion of this meeting, the Democratic National Convention for the nomination of candidates for President and Vice President of the United States, to be supported by the democracy in 1844, should be held in the month jf .May of that year, and that each Congressionnl Djstfci shou'i>!. elect its own delegate, to attend in person, and vote in accordance with the wishes of his constituents. and passed with great enthusiasm ] I look, said Mr. W., on that as one of the great est doctrines, which could, at this crisis, be presen ted to the cruicibJe of your discerning judgement.

Jacob Shipman,Ti confiOtintiai agent for the Banks and Brokers of New-Yo’Jt, lately “ cut slid” with about 6^1-20,000 of other folks’ money in his pock- ct, Jacob knew who he uas robbing. Ever since a certain occurrence in Mississippi, repudiation^'' has been a.stereotyped phrase of contempt for the democracy in the mouth of every Federal Whig. We were “ repudiators,'^ scoundrels who would not pa7 our debts or regard the sacred obligation of contracts. If the democracy gained the asccndency in any Stale which owed a public debt,they would exclaim—“look out forras- cality—they won’t pay the public debt of the State —they’ll * repudiate,’ and ruin our credit at home and abroad;—oh, these abominable locofoco repudia- tors !” Now. behold their consistency. New-York u'as overw’helmed with debt by her whig rulers when the democrats got the ascendency there in 1842. No effort had been made to decrease the debt, or to pay any portion of it. The Demo- crjits had to euher see the plighted faith of the State violated and her credit ruined, or to lay q tax and gradually pay ofT her debt. As an honest party would do, they laid the tax, and preserved the faith and credit of the State. And w'hat said the Whigs to this? They immediately raised a clamor about “high taxes,” and the oppressions of locofoco ru lers! An exactly similar scene of whig hypocrisy on this same subject has been cnacted in Pennsyl vania, and another is now progressing in Virginia. Virginia has a larg^ and increasing public debt hanging over her, the only way to meet which is by increased taxation or “ repudiation.” As they should have done, the late democratic legislature passed a law increasing the taxes on the people in order to meet iheir public debt; and the whig press in that State aie now busily at work to make politi cal capital for the coming elections (on the 20th in stant) out of this very law ! Hoxe was a fair-issue —increased iaxc^. or repudiation. The dem.o- crals, hiic honest n, saiJ, let us have increased taxes; w'e’ll cheerfujly ,4>ky. ihem, to preserve-fife toir-name anil credit of ihe\J6%ol3*Comtnonwealth, 'and for thi? they r;rc denounced and villified by the The Court Martial in .\'cKenzies case have ren dered a verdict of acquittal for hanging Spencer and others, and the verdict has been appeared by the President. roR THE JEFFERSONIAN.

Mr, Calhoun is more popular at this moment in this city than any other Democratic candidate that can be named. There is a report in town to-day, that if Mr. Van Buren does not get a majority of the members of the Legislature to nominate him, he will withdraw his name. We hope it u’ill prove true. By a dignifi ed withdrawal of his name, he can secure once more ! the ascendency of the Democratic party, to whom } he owes a debt of gratitude for past elevation which any sacrifice of personal ambition and love of power he may make can hardly repa}!

DESCRIPTION, PERFORMANCE, L ATH is a fine bay, without white, 15 fiands Sinches high, with good hone and capital action. At 3 years old lie won the produce stalte at Columbia, 2 mile.s heals, beating Mr. Taylor’s filly Daisy, and Capt, Snann’s rnlf /..o £ Wo wccKS auerwards he won the Jockey Cluh Purse, 3 mile heals, at Augusta, healing Kite and distancing Black Bird, At Ciiarleston ho was beat en by Clodhopper, for the Jockey Club Purse, 3 mile heats; being very much amiss he was withdrawn after the first heat. At 4 years old, he won the Joc key Club Purse, 1 mile heat-s, at Camden, beating Sir Kenneth and Dorahella at 3 heats ; lossing the first in consequence of bolting when several lengths in advance of the field, just before he reached the judfjes’ stand ; and getting entangled amongst the carriages, he sustained an injur\' which occasioned his withdrawal from (he Turl’. LATH was a racc horse of the first class, wliich j he evinced in l»is trials with Bay Maria, Charlotte ' Russe and Kitty Heth, and in point of blood he is inferior 10 none, whether iinporte*! or native. His constitution is robu.st, having never been sick, and his temper good. His color, fbrm and action, spea'c for them.-^elves. In a word, Lath unites in himself as many claims to public patronage, as any youn‘»' Stallion thit 1 Know. " W. HAMPTON. Will wood, Jan. 22, 1S39. j From the above Certificate of Col. Hampton, who bred and liad LATH trained for the Turl, it w’ill be I seen tliat he consiilered him a Race horse of the I first class—nat ')i)ly from the races he has mention- t ed as having run publicly, but from private trials he. j lias made with horses wiiich are now on the Turl, I and running with considt‘rable success. It w'ili also [ be observed by ids certilica'e, that he considered I Lath of the purest blood—not to be surpassed by ' any horse, imported or native. I consider it entirely unnecessary to attempt to eulogise Lath, either lor iiis performances on tho Turf or as to his blood, since, in every respect, he is so w’ell attested. But will remaiU that Lath fias not only descened from pure biood, but has come from Slock both Sire, Grandaire. Dam and Grand-dam, that are of the running blood. For instance, hie sire Godolphin made his four miles in 7 minutes and 50 .arrondrt J his Grandsire, ihe Eclipse, so well known at the iS'orth and South, made his time in the great luaich r.ice, ihc North against the South, .^20,000 aside, in 7 minutes and 37 seconds, which Eclipse won with considerable eclat. This racc gamed him the memorable name of the Champion of the North. His danj, sired hy the renowned Sir Archy. whose reputation as a racer, &c., stands un questioned both in England and America. The gran(i-dam of Lath, Old Lottery, bread by iJie great Southern Amateur of horses. Col. R. SingletcTn, of South Carolina, which has produced more line race horses than any other mure m the. Union. Thus it will be seeii that there is united in Lath two of the best studs of the South, Hampio i’s and Singleton’s, crossed with Gen. Coles’ of the Norih. The public is now presented with such an oppor- tun’.ty of improving the blood of that noble and use ful animal, the liorsc, as rarely occurs in this section of country. R. VV. L.
