PROOF FROM THE RECORD. ndo: the old Constitution of North olini, the Governor was elected annu- byhe Legislature, but in 1835 the istitltion was amended, and, among er things, it was provided that this im- tantright should be thencetorth exer- ed bj the people. In 1834 a bill pass- the Lejis ature providing for a Conven- i w o u vnitWfi i make alterations in the t,ontitu- , . r- i tu n to m ani William A. Graham, the Scott Mndidate for Vice President, was a mem- r of thtt Legislature. While this bill i nendini? before the House, it was oved te strike out ol said bill 'that ause in the 13th section providing for the ection of Governor of the State by the ee white men thereof," and the question on was decided in the negative, yeas 94 William A. Graham voting the House of Commons, session of Jt, page 220. J'he truth is, Mr Graham has always n regarded as a conservative Federalist. ideas of government have been drawn m the teacr.insrs ol trie liamiitonian . mm . bol; and hence he has always consider- It sound nolicv to limit the people in r exercise or power on the one hand. to render them prosperous on the r bv uanKS, uizn larius, otc. nie eralists, it is well known, regarded it primary duty to take care of the people at is, to watch, overlook, ami restrain lest they might destroy themselves ing in too much liberty; in other ederalism means power in the the few, and submission and yience on the part of the many.

THE DISCUSSION, Announced for yesterday afternoon, was commenced at half-past three o'clock. 1 eron led off in a speech of a bo at an hour arid a half.

Person read remarks from Whig papers of N. Carolina, and from WJiig speeches in Congress, in order to show the inconsistency ot the Whigs of the South in their support of Gen. Scott. He also showed that the Whig party had abandoned all their old issues of national politics. His speech was one of argument, deep, sound, hard-fisted ar gument, if we may be allowed the expres sion, every word of which told as it was uttered. We wish we could print it. Alter paying a high compliment to the character of our candidates for the Presi dency anil Vice Presidency of the Unite! States, Col. Person concluded by intro ducing to the audience Jas. Banks, Esq., of Cumberland county, who replied in a speech of about the same length of time that had been occupied by Col. Person- Mr Banks is evidently a fluent and humor ous speaker ; but vhen it come to princi- pies, he, in good laitli to his party, was lacking. His party had no principles to contend for, and of course he had to get - . i. . i . over tne iliicinma in ine uesi hwihici ne could, and branched off in an euloy upon the hero of Lundy's Lane, Chapultepcc, &c, &c, not forgetting to pay a high ; -, . f t ,un !Tk tribute of merit to the ch ru-xm v lion. Win. A. Graham, tli aracter of the the W his candi date for the Vice Presidency ; but not the first argument advanced by Col. Person did he answej, or scarcely touched. t The discussion was carried ou in a spirit which vc should like to see in all political de bates of the kind. If was honorable to both gentlemen. Mr Banks bavins con cluded at about half past six, the audience adjourned to meet again at the Court House at half-nast seven, when tne uiscussion was continued, Cl. 4'eison QpeftSffgMtHfr a rejoinder. In tiis first speech, Coi. Per son had merely set lorth the principles 01 his party as we have stated above ; ami showing that the Whigs had abandoned all their old issues- None of his argu ments having been answered or met. he m a most happy manner, refuted the charges promulgated against ben. fierce, aim tne Democratic party generally. His re marks were highly eloquent during the greater portion of his rejoinder, which lasted about two hours. Col. Person hay ing concluded, Mr Banks again replied, in an eulogy on Scott and Graham. He wound up by stating that the Whig party had been charged with abandoning their principles. That they had given up the idea of a United States Bank, a Protective Tariff, &c, &c, and their opposition to the Independent Treasury system. He granted they had, and they were right in so doing, because the people had repeated ly pronounced their erdict in opposition to the policy of the Whig party in regard to these measures ; and as good Whigs, they did abandon such issues. If they had not ro done, they might then very justly have been charged refractory" to their principles. But when Mr 15. came to the ' I ' .. . , - ll,..i..i b- ".mini cmnel hi nr to complain of. How was the Sub-'I rea sury law fulfilled? Where was the money kept? That was the rub. In the banks. or where ? This charge was met by a friend of the Collector here, who knew how the matter stood, by simply stating that Mr Aloore kept the Government's money where he is bound by law to keep it in the vaults prepared for it in the Custom House. So even opposition; to that Democratic measure was given up and the discussion concluded at 1 1 o'clock 'at' nig rt'iivnrtihjiaiKLmKHWwHaff assembled to hear the same, returned to their homes in the best of humor and good feelings towards each other, and all, no doubt, highly pleased with the manner in which it was conducted- CtJBear in mind that James Binks, Kqr. , Whig Sub-fclector, in the political discussion in this town on the 1 4th inst.. distinctly stated that Gen. Pierce had been charged by some of his party with loathing (he Fugitive Slave law, but that he made no such charge. He knew the contrary to be the fact. He knew that Franklin Pierce had manfully defended that law in his own State, and that he gave him credit for so doing. He went farther. He was not going to charge Gen. Pierce with being an abolitionist. He made no such charge. This is the substance of what Mr Banks said relative t charges of this nature brought ajjainit Gen Pierce. W"e do not pretend to give the precise words. These admissions have been joade by the Whig Sub-Klector fur this district, and we accord to him all candor in ma-king them. We believe he was sincere in so doing. I Wilmington Journal. . jvox. la -up. 700.

A young couple were sitting together in a romantic spot, with birds and flowers about them, when the following dialogue ensued : My dear, if the sacrifice of my life would please thee, gladly would 1 lay it at thy feet." Oh, sir, you're too kind! But il just teminds me that I wish you'd ' stO using tobacco." Can't think of it. It is a habit to wl'ich I am wedded."
