(J We give below a communication from one of the leaders of the Van Bu rcn party of this County, in answer to Randolph, that appeared a few weeks ago, explaining tho manner in which Mr Loring, Editor of the North Caro lina Standard, at Raleigh, obtained his "credentials rrmlhiiCouft presentative in the late "Demcratie Republican Slat Right Convention? which assembled in Raleigh on the 8th of January Jast, to nominate a candidate Tor Governor, to be run in opposition to Mr. Moat mad. litre's the thing ir laUm it spellalum: ' FOB THE ci'tixem " Noliccing coma remarks in your pa tier resnectinir the Democatlic meting at Joab Parrkes negro hiring you1 spoke of it as being cal'd without anv previous notice being given As to that part of vour remark 1 can aay that there was a "gejrierol notice given tho the notice was cort 1 lor one nera oi uie meung " ee or ten days before 1 also notice'd a com munication in your paper by oni woh calls himself Randolph (if i mistake not) who calls on Mr. Loring to Sho his rthority for acting as the Dellegate of Ksndo on countv. 1 can imorra mr Randolph that in case none of the Del- legates front Randolph eould attend the convention some one of the number was to orthreisa ioma person to act for the couniy this subject was discus') at; the meeting cVagreed to by the body & ow ing to the inclemnancy of the weather one of the dellegatcs fearigg thai lh County wold noj, be represented, wrote to Mr. Loring in case none of- the deli legates did attend to act for the county, this I can say is the true history of thV case, Believing that you wold be willing to corect the misapprehensions that has bin published here tofures the cause of my .addressing this letter to you which I wish you tp publish 1 t, II. Julian March 2l st 1810 We beg leave .to differ with Mr. Julian, when he says "that this is a true history or the case.' and that too on the authority, and in the words of the Chairman of the meeting. The Chair man will not deny that he told two re spectable citizens of the County, both whig, that Mr. Loring wis not named in the meeting at Park's, and that be knew nothing of his representing the County, until the Convention at Raleigh had adjourned. Esq. , who was in the meeting at Parks and appointed a delegaje, also says that there was no thing said about Mr. Loring m the meet ing. we think air. Julian is also mis taken in saying that there was a general notice given of their intention to ho!d a mm .. t m ' i a ; - a meeting on the day of the negco hiring. We never even suspicioned that a meet ing of the i "democracy" of Randolph would assemble lo near the Chatham line as Joab Parks', when wo have public Court-House. And further, we believe we should not be very far wrong in saying that more than one half of the people at the negro hiring knew nothing about (he meeting. ;; There were several gentlemen at the negro hiring from this place and two of them say that they left there after 3 o clocj, ana never beard such a thing as a political meeting named during the day. "RECKONING WITHOUT HIS HOST," , -The - following - is - copied .' from the Washington correspondence ot the Wew ork Courier and Lnquirerj "Mr. Romulus Remus Saunders, the f Van Burcn candidate for Governoi in North Carolina, if at present in this city. i lie arrived sere via lenncssee, K.cn tucky, Ohio, &c, , He thinks, r afiects to think, that Van yuren, is yet saw in Tennessee, but says that the prospect is very .blue in Ubio. Of hit Own chance of success, he does not appear to be ran guine. , He is of opinion, -however, that if the information which Mr, Fisher gives him of his strength in the Salisbu ry district, be correct, he may be elec ted by three or lour thousand majority but that it will be a hard battle, - We have no doubt but that Mr. Fish er did give Saunders the assurance a- bove stated, and we have as little doubt but he thinks be can make it good: If, however he hat promised him thema jority of a single county of the district u is a woeiui miscalculation, itowan was the only one where we ever thought he stood a chance to succeed, but any man who was here hut week (at the CoarHtqd Generalriusfer,)nd--4ook ithe hast pains to ascertain the state public opinion, must have become tho roughly convinced that this chance is out.

We cannot shut our eyes toJhe fact, that a heavypressure now exists in this community.
