THE INAUGURAL We invite this attention of the reader to the ! r extracts below, in relation to General Harrison's Inaugural Address. The disagreement among the Locofocos as to the merits and character of that pa per, we consider a decided commendation showing at once that their animadversions are founded in a settled porposel to opposrr ii whatever its merits Certainly indicating that there are no glaring faults.

" We are rroUdisposed lo be captions in com menting upon this State Paper pbat one cannot but be 6truck with the marked difference between the Inaugural of Harrison and the productioos of the upright and talented Statesman who pre ceded him, and Of the immense intellectual su periorily of Mr. Wan Buren, as well as of al the . other Presidents, over the present incum bent." . i ' : 4 .

'i The Camden Journal, after raising some doc trinal objections, says y 'The paper is ably drawn vp', and U occt sionally etowenf. f - How very different are the optics through which these Locofocos see things 1 -:' Of that part of ithe Inaugural which allude? to the subject of abolition, tht Standard says - " His remarks on the subject of Abolition arc very unsatisfactory." Oo the same part, the Ballimore Republican remark? i , jn ine sooject or ouiuh.!. ne is more ex- Jicit, avowing his disapprobation of any attempt on the part of the! people of one State to inter-; frre with the institutions, and internal concerns; of others; and it is the only, or almost the only one respecting which ie jsso."

A QUEER MOVE. - In the fayeltcvxllc North Carolinian of the 6th of Fehruary, there was, an article headed Thomas Loring, eq. Editor of the Standard, calling upon us lo pnblish certain articles and expose some of i the doings of the Federal 'Whiggery at Haleigh. This was all very well : none could ovject to the zeal manifested by thef Editors of the JYorth Carolinian. We wrote an answer to this call ;' it was not published by our friends of the Carolinian. We published several articles of the character indicated in the call ;J those have not been co pied. .vAIhoogh ihe call was entirely 'gra tuitous, having neither hastened the publi cation of our articles, nor added to their im port, yet we took it in good part. e The Tarboro Press also published the call,' but failed lo insert our dnswer, and, we be lieve, printed but n sma'l part of the matter called for. Whai is the meaning oj all this Raleigh Standard. x ' Sure enough, Mr. Loring, what is the meaning of itt .'Do the , Carolinian and -Press doubt your statements ? Have you varied from well known truths in one or more partictilart f and can it be for 'that tea" son t hey rlecl i nfe pu bl isb ing y ou r 'expose of the doings of. the Federal Whiggery at Ra leigliT Lash them into measures Lc-ring ; or frighten "them by your thunder at Mt.
