I certify, that I was at Lanesborough on
the 26th day of July, when Deberry and
Morris addressed the people, I was also in
the room with them, at the time when they
examined the journals, and I distinctly re
collect that when they were about to leave
the room, Mr. Deberry put his hand on Mr.
Morris's shoulder, and asked him if he would
not acknowledge to the people that day, that
the journals disproved Montgomery s letters.
And Mr., Morris replied, that he could not
acknowledge any thing, only that Montgo
mery had made one mistake, in not mention
ing one small appropriation; and that when
he stated three small bilU not named, he
should have said four. And also, I heard
them address the people, and am certain that
Mr. Morris fully redeemed his promise.

REPUBLICAN MEETING IN MOORE.
At a numerous and highly respectable
Democratic Republican Meeting, held at
Carthage, Moore County, September 21st,
1839, on motion ot Daniel McNeill, Esq.
Niven JVlcLeran, Esq. was called to the
chair, and William R. Berryman, and Pat
rick M. Blue, were appointed Secretaries.-
The object of the meeting having been ex
plained by the chair, the following gentle
men were appointed a committee to draft
resolutions expressive of the sentiroeuts of
the meeting, viz: Wm. D. Harrington, Alfred
Oliver, Daniel Wilson, Alexander Cameron,
Holden Cox, Joseph Buchanan, Donald Mc
Donald, Julius Glascock, Joel Sullivan and
E. Mcintosh. The committee retired, and
having returned, submitted the following in
troduction and resolutions to the meeting,
which were seconded, and without a dissent
ing voice, adopted:
The never-ending, still-increasing, dark,
designing, midnight machinations of the in-
1 vcici jic iiuu uiiuiniipiuiiii.niij enemies ui
constitutional and popular government in
the United States, but more particularly in
North Carolina, to advance to offices of the
highest trust in the republic, men, whose
political views are in unison with their own,
and consequently at war with those held by
the great body of the free and independent
men of North Carolina, -and of the United
States; The abuse heaped upon those whom
the people hive honored, do honor, and will
honor, speak louder than the "brass cannon's
roar," of the utter detestation in which that
dominant faction hold3 the e amnion will,
to revere which, is the genius of our constitu
tion the rock of our political salvation.
The shameful impositions palmed upon the
unsuspecting and credulous, by the would
be "great and wise!1' throughout the late
canvass in the 7th Congressional District,
all cry aloud, in language not to be misun
derstood, to the Democracy of Moore, of the
course likely to be pursued to affect the
aonroaching elections, and that thet hitherto.
dormant potvers of Moore's Republican sons,
must be roused and brought into the field of
political warfare.
The sovereignty of the majority, the
subordination of the minority, being in
cumbent on us to keep inviolable, to aug
ment and perpetuate the blessings of liberty
to future generations through the means of
good and equitable laws; laws not exclusive,
but affecting alt equally, the high and low,
the rich and poor, iti other words, Democratic
laws. To aid in preserving immutable those
universally vivifying principles, and in sweep
ing to oblivion the noxious views of Federal
ism, Bawkism, Abolitionism, or to sum these
three in one-. New-Light Whigism, we, a
portion of the Democracy of Moore, have
publicly assembled. And believing this can
be truly and effectually done, by a Osmo
cratic union to secure the election of men to
the gubernatorial chair, the Senate and Com
mons of North Carolina, and the Senate of
the United States, who will sustain the well
known political views of our able and patri
otic President, Martin Van Buren: We do
therefore j
Resolve,, That he on whom the Democra
cy of North Carolina shall concentrate as
competent to fill the Chair of State of North
Carolina, and who shall become a candidate
for that high office, shall receive a warm and
energetic support from the Democracy of
Moore county, a support not inferior to that
evinced in the late Tennessee election of
Governor. Being well aware of the compe
tency of W. H. Hay wood, Jr. Esq. of Raleigh,
as ajurist,a patriot and a Democratic Repub
lican, we nominate him, as a fit person to rill
the office of Governor of this State. We
lurther
Resolve, Th?t!.rin-"! confidence in the
capacity, patriotism and republicanism of
Ed ward McCollum of Montgomery county,
we recommend him to the Democracy of
Montgomery and Moore, as a fit person to
support their views in the Senate of North
Carolina, and will lender him our warmest
support during the canvass, and our united
suffrages in the ballot box. We further
Resolve, That highly applauding the
course pursued in the Legislature of this
State, and having full confidence in the Re
publican principles and patriotism of Daniel
McNeill, Esq. our present representative, in
the Commons House of the General Assem
bly; We nominate him, as a fit person lor
the same representation, and will give him a
similar support to that which carried him so
triumphantly overNew-LightWhigchicha ne
ry and cajolery, in 1833. We do further
Resolve, That seeing, as we do, in the
whole course parsued in the last Congress of
the United States, by the Hon. Bedford
Brown and Hon. Rebert Strange, but more
especially in their brave stand against that
mammoth but noxious institution ycleped
"The- United States Bank," an institution
whose interests are, the augmentation of
taxes, and a large, overflowing surplus re
venue, and which is calculated, above all
other institutions, to draw destruction , on
society, having on one side a wealthy aristo
cracy, on the other a poor, oppressed pea
santry, as in England, in their opposition to
the execrable Tariff system, so destructive
to the agricultural interests of the republic;
and alo in their ardent support of that con
stitutional repository of our national revenue,
"The Independent Treasury," the interests
of which are, the reduction of taxes, and no
surplus revenue, and better calculated than
any other repository, to give the people full
control of their own money; seeing in their
whole course palpable traces of pure and
sound Republicanism, and of souls high
strung to the inspiring anthem of "the best
gift of heaven," sweet liberty; and having
full belief that their future will be in full har
mony with their psst; we will support them
by furthering their election to the Senate of
the United States, as Republicans ought,
openly, fairly, unflinchingly and unanimous
ly. After seconding the prereeding intro
duction and resolutions, Col. John Morrison
made some comprehensive remarks on the
leadingpoHfical questions of fhe day, amongst
others he said, "From the appearances, he
had no doubt but the New-Light Whig mask
would be thrown aside, ere long, for a pa
tent roquelaure to be called New-Light Re
publicanism." On motion, The following gentlemen
were appointed delegates to meet in Conven

The Amis tad. We have laid before our
readers the Spanish view of this subject from
the rsotieioso do Ambos Munaos, a Spanish
Journal printed in New York. The N. York
American of Thursday states, oh what it deems
good authority, that M. Calderou de la Barca,
who exercises the functions of Spanish Min
ister until his successor shall be received and
accredited by the President, has formally de
manded the surrender' to the Spanish authori
ties, of the vessel, cargo, and alledged slaves.
A correspondent of the New York Express
takes the ground, that the Executive of the U.
States has nothing to do with the surrender
but that under the treaty with Spain, as well
as under the Constitutional provision, the
Judiciary is the proper tribunal to adjudicate
the question of property, or pi" surrender.
Ia Prussia a law has recently been pro
mulgated, providing that no children under 9
years of age shall be employed in manufacto
ries, mines, or workshops, &c. and none un
der 16, unless they have regularly attended
school, aud pursued their studies, at least 3
years, and are able to read with facility, and
to write legibly. None under 16 are to be
permitted to work more than 10 hours per
day, except that in particular cases, to be de
termined by the local authorities, an hour a
day may be added to the 10, but for a period
not exceeding a month. They are also to be
allowed one quarter of an hour in the fornoon,
another in the afternoon, and an hour at noon,
for recreation. They are not to commence
before 5 in the morning, nor to work after 9
in the evening. What a blessing it would be
to thousands of our manufacturing population
if such a law existed in our own country.

Saturday Morning, September 28, 1839.
REPUBLICAN NOMINATION.
FOR PRESIDENT.
martin Van Buren.
We proceed further, thi3 week, with the
investigation of the grounds upon which Mr.
Deberry, in his address, indecorously attri
butes to "A Freeman," skill "in the language
of falsehood and billingsgate." It is our ob
ject distinctly to define Mr. Deberry's posi
tion; and to show clearly, that so far from
one single charge of A Freeman's" against
him, being "false," he himself, has in almost
every instance admitted their truth.
He has not only admitted their truth, but
has succeeded very illy in his feeble attempt
to apologize for the bad vote3 which "A
Freeman" has shewn he gave in Congress
votes, which he would never have permitted
his constituents to see or know if he could
help it.
The 4th charge of "A Freeman,'' in hi3
letter to the Whig member elect is, "You
voted to increase the army." In reply to
this charge, Mr. Deberry says, "I did so
vote." Well then, there is no "falsehood"
in this charge; the culprit pleads guilty to
this count in the indictment, and let us see
what excuse he gives for it. In his apolo
gy for this vote, he says, "We were driven
to the necessity of increasing the army, or of
keeping in constant service several thousand
of our militia, for the protection of our wes
tern fron'.ier, against the numerous tribes of
Indians, which the bad policy of the Admin
istration had settled down on that frontier."
This declaration contains an avowal which
we did not expect to hear, from a man so
anxious as Mr. Deberry, "to subserve the
cause of justice and humanity" towards the
Indians, as he expresses himself in another
part of his "ex post facioJ"
This gentleman then thinks the removal
of the Indiana beyond the Mississippi, "bail
policy in the Administration." In the first
place he knows full well that this measure
did not originate with the present Aministra
tion, nor with the one next preceeding it.
But that it has been long the cherished ob
ject of all philanthropists, all the unaffected
friends to "justice and humanity," of both
and all parties. Mr. Deberry votes "to en
tertain John Ross's memorial," and objects
to the settlement of the Indians on our fron
tier across the Mississippi. Why? Why,
we ask, does he profess to be opposed to this
"bad policy?" Why does he think it "bad
policy" thus to rid ourselves of these Indians
and place them in a happier and more inde
pendent condition? It was simply because
he wished to make good by any and every
means, his oft repeated charge of extrava
gance against the Administration.
Is Mr. Deberry opposed to the fulfilment
of the treaty with the Cherokees, by which
they are now happily settled on our western
frontier, with more and better land than they
left in North Carolina.
Is he opposed to the sale of their lands, to
which that treaty extinguished the Cherokee
title, and the proeecds of which amount
$350,000 paid into our State Treasury, there
by relieving us from that amount of taxes?
If he be not so opposed, he surely cant call
it "bad policy" to remove these Indians
across the Mississippi.
But perhaps he may like well enough, to
get his own State rid of the Cherokees, and
receive the $350,0C0 to help pay his own
taxes perhaps he may like this part of the
treaty, but may think it "bad policy" in the
part of the same treaty which removes the
Georgia Cherokees or if he should not
think any part of the'Cherokee treaty "bad
policy," he-probably means the "bad policy"
of which he speaks, to apply to the treaty
with the Creek Indians, by which Georgia
and Alabama were relieved from the mur
derous maraudings of those blood thirsty sa
vages, and an immense amount of acres of
valuable land, converted from Indian hunt
ing grounds, to valuable cotton and corn
fields. He may be opposed to this Creek
trea ty, because he hates the Hero President
and General, that distinguished himself in
conflicts with these most savage of the sav
age race. It may be this haired for the ven
erable ex-President and hi3 successor, that
kiudles up in his breast the nice sense of "jus
tice and humanity" to the Indians, of which
he writes. - -
If Mr. Deberry is not dissatisfied-with the
Cherokee,-nor yet with the Creek treaty,
perhaps it is the treaty for the benefit of the
people of Florida, by re moving the Seminoles,
that he alludes to. If so, we hope he may
never take it into his head to buy the rich
hammock lands of Florida, to make a settle
ment upon; for the loss of a patch . on his
Congressional cranium, by Sam Jones's scalp
in knife, might make him think it not "bad
policy tos remove Sam, and the whole tribe
who figured at Dade's massacre, at any ex
pense. A nearer vicinage to Tiger Tail and
his gang of murderers, might alter his refined
notions about "justice and humanity."
We appeal to every impartial reader,
whose mind is not biased by the petty colli
sions, which a canvass for Congress is always
calculated to engender, between those who
differ in politics. We appeal to every such
reader, now that his mind is at rest, aAer the
canvass in this District is over, to say, in
candor and sincerity, what he thinks of this
strange, unaccountable position taken by our
member elect. He votes to increase the army,
to protect helpless women and children
against the savage Indian, pronounces the
vote extravagant, (his own vote,) admitted
by himself, and then lays the blame "on the
Administration," and justifies his charge of
."bad policy in the Ad minist ration," by a
profession of a sense of "justice and human
ity" to the savages. Does Mr. Deberry feel
this sense of "justice and humanity?" Does
he not merely profess it from partisan hos
tility, as an excuse for his opposition to the
wisest, most humane policy, ever adopted by
our government towards the Indians? Let
the reader reflect, that it is not merely the
treaties with the Cherokees of Georgia and
North Carolina, and the Creeks of Alabama,
and the Seminoles of Florida to which Mr.
Deberry's party zeal makes him opposed. It
is the treaty for the removal of the Choctaws
of the State of Mississippi: The Sacs and
Foxes of Illinois and Wisconsin: The Po
tawotamies, and other numerous tribes to
the number of twenty or thirty in the States
of Missouri, Indiana, Michigan, and the whole
West almost, by the ratification of which, ef
fected principally by Gen. Jackson and Mr.
Van Buren, within the last ten years, and
extinguishing the title to about one hundred
and eighteen millions of acres ' of valuaole
land tha our sage politician and philanthro
pist, the lVhig member elect, objects as "bad
policy!!" That the member elect should be
in favor of the United States Bank against
the government is "bad" enough "policy."
That his northern Whig Abolition friends,
should be in favor of the negroes against the
government is "bad"' enough "policy." But
that our Whig Representative should join
the Indians. That he should enlist his ten
der sympathies with the Black Hawks, San.
Joneses, Oceolas, and Tiger Tails,ond other
butchers of his fellow-citizens, is we think,
the worst 'ipoliry'" of all.
If this opposition to these Indian treaties
be good policy, the wise polit ician, the sage
lawgiver who professes it, should carry it
out: He should "make his foot marks" in
Congress, by opposing Mr. Clay's land bill,
and instead of distributing the proceeds of
these 118,OCO,000 acres of Indian land
amongst the States, he should immortalize
his name as a New-Light Whig philanthro
pist, by introducing a resolution to sell these
lands and appropriate the money to building
colleges and churches for his frUnds, the In
dians, across the Mississippi. He should
have a Cherokee University to rival the Gi
rard College, and make his friend John Ross
Professor of Ethics and Political ceconomy
in it. The member elect himself might emi
grate, buy a "small library" (with the Che
rokees' money) and have himself appointed
Professor over the "humanity" classes. He
should go further, and have a military acade
my erected for his friends the Seminoles; it
might be called New West Point, and Tiger
Tail would make a good superintendent; in
stead of professorships of engineering, infan
try and artillery tacticks, he should, make
Sam Jones principal Professor and Tactician
in the dexterous use of the Tomahawk, Ali
oator in the use of the bow and arrow, and
Abram chief instructor in the classes that
studied the sublime art of dexterity in taking
off a scalp. He should establish a class in
cavalry, and get professors and horses from
the Camanches. Indeed, with a part of the
money, he might safely erect an Indian Gov
ernment Bank; Black Hawk, Junior, would
make a good President; he might become a
second Biddle. The deposites might be made
in buffalo and bever skin.3, and as for the cur
rency, the myriads of Camanche horses and
mules, we u Id do very well, by only .calling
them jor notes. Mr. Deberry would do
well to think of this. It would not be such
"bad policy." He would get to himself a
name. It would never be said by an "insolent"
"Freeman," that he had not left "his foot
marks" in' Congress. We cannot hold con
verse with the member elect, any further at
present we may notice other heads of his
address hereafter.
MR. MORRIS'S STATEMENT.
We this day lay before our readers this
gentleman's statement of facts touching cer
tain events growing out of the recent Con
gressional canvass in this District. We
might iu publishing this staterneut barely
call the attention of the reader to it, but as it
treats of matters, ia which the public are in
terested, and more particularly so, as much
misrepresentation has gone abroad touching
them. We would particularly call the atten
tion of the reader to the two prominent points
in the statement. The first b, that Mr
Morris, in bis public addresses and private
cornmuuicatious in allusion to the facts stated
in Dr. Montgomery's letter to the Editor of
this paper, was particular in using the lan
guage employed by Dr. M. in relation to Mr.
Deberry's .course iu Cougress, as derived
from the Journal, to wit:) that his, Deberry's
name, was recorded against but one appropri
ation Bill, to wit: the Harbour Bill, and th ee
other small appropriations not enumerated in
Dr. M's. list of reference. Mr. M. shows
conclusively that although Mr. D. sought to
break the force by changing the terms of the
charge to suit his situation; yet, that he, Mr.
M. corrected hij, misconstruction time after
time, so that Mr. D. was left without excuse
for his assertious that Dr. M. or Mr. Morris
affirmed that his, Deberry's name was record
ed in the Journals, iu favor of certain appro
priation Bills. The second refers to the
statement made by Mr. Deberry here "and
elsewhere, as to the examination of the Jour
nals at Lanesborough, in Anson county, and
the understanding which took place thereupoa
between Mr. Morris and Deberry, which Mr,
D. alledged to be that Mr. Morris was satisfi
ed that the Journals disproved Dr. Montgo
mery's letter ia every particular, and so ex
pressed himself, and that he promised to make
such a statement to the people then assembled,
(which much to Mr. D's. surprise, he failed
to do.) Mr. M. takes Issue with D. on
this charge, aud gives it a flat contradiction,
and produces the certificate of Mr. W. H.
Gulledge, proving most conclusively that D.
has made an unfounded statement touching the
transactions at Lanesborough. Mr. Morris's
statement is drawn up in a proper temper,
and puts to shame the coarse and indecent
communication recently addressed by De
berry to the people of this District. We may
allude to the facts contained in Mr. M's. 'ad
dress again.

of such of our readers as it may concern, to

The Health and the Weather. On

The weather has been warm for the last
day or two, though not disagreeably so; about
3 o'clock this morning, a very sudden change
was experienced, and blankets aud woollen

was also observable about three .miles from

however, can lead to beneficial results, aud
we must only hope for the best, without the
