Who can tell how full of meaning, or how fraught with events of the most portentious and alarming character will be 1860 ! The hand of time on the "Dial Plate" of the universe, will run its annual round but twice before we find ourselves standing on the confines of that year the most important m the history of this government. The storms of frenzy and fanaticism, that have thus far "dashed themselves in vain against the firm . and unshaken I Ote mdrethaa thelf haTe to the exports of the country, yea, more than all the Northern and Western States combined, they pay more than their share of the Tariff to support the general government, in times of war they are the first to rush to the place of danger, and the last to desert it, they love their country, the whole country, and and are willing to make any honorable sacrifice to preserve it from destruction. In the great battle of 1860, we hope and believe there will be but one party in the South, there is no great political question now to divide us, the only issue, in our humble opinion, will be between the National De mocracy and the Black Repnblicans, aided by those reckless spirits who want to defeat democracy and eare for nothing else. Will tho law loving and law abiding portion of the South join in this crusade, or will they join hands with tho democratic party to save the country from Black Republican rule. We will see.- The voice of our beloved country is calling upon us ; the remnant band of Fathers, so rapidly passing off from the stage of active life, calls upon us to press on amid the fragments of tljp fallen and tho wrecked, and strike once more for freedom's cause, "Strike, till the last armed foe expires. Strike, for your altars and your fires. Strike, for the green graves of your sires, God, and your native land ! HOW. - JESSE Gr. SHEPHERD. We are glad to learn that our esteemed fellow citizen, whose nnmA ini?i tbta o - 1. . a.." rock of the Constitution" at present appear to be sented to let his-uame conie before the next Te.m s- B , .TdT RV,W , :.i: i. A lOSV" fiiwu BAUt? UV DIUO Willi un' Dima viui'imui clajmng a common brotherhood and a common in terest in the victories of "King's Mountain' and 'Bunker Hill", seem to have taken flisrht. The gallant band who raised the proud stripes and stars over an infant republic, within sight of the waves of the Atlantic, to be planted by their de pendents in triumph on the shores of the Pacific, "have all long since passed away, and with them, the admonitory advice of the Father of his country, Is forgotten. Pure and unsullied devotion to lib erty, ardent attachment to our country and her interest, have given way to party prejudice and sectional strife. In the better and purer days of th republic, worth and merit were the only pass port to power and place, and no. matter how widely they might aiffer as i0 the best mode of administer ing the affairs of government, they all united in the preservation of equal rights, equal laws and! equal privileges, unuer tnat Constitution they Bad all sworn to support and defend. "They marched to no tune that did not keep time with the music of the union." Their party flags all bore on their broad and ample folds this inscription: "Xo North. No South, No East, No West, but a common band of brothers, under the Union and the Constitution," choosing always to be right rather than successful, "the only ends they aimed at were their country's . good, their God, and truth." How different the times upon which we have fallen. The recent elections in Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Ohio, are well calculated to cast a gloom over the future, and cause the true patriot and philanthropist to inquire, Where will these things end? If those elections had turned upon some great political question, as for instance, the Tariff, the United States Bank, the Sub Treasury, or even the Dis tribution of the proceeds of the public lands, or the lands themselves, or if the administration had been charged with extravagancoT recklessly expending the public money, or any question upon which two great political parties might differ, and still claim for themselves a willingness and abilty to guard, protect and defend from wrong, every interest and every section, we might then see in it nothing but a party defeat, nothing but the triumph of an bon oraoie political adversary, ijut we conress to a very different feeling, we fear this is only "the be ginning of the end." We love the Democratic party and its principles ; wo think, and long have thought, that upon its success depends the perpe tuity of the union ; we think the principles of that party best adapted to our institutions and best cal- cuiatea to auvance tne interest ot our common Carolina. Judge Shepherd is now riding th first judicial circuit under the appointment of the Gov ernor and his council. It was at first doubtful whether he would consent to hold the appointment longer than the meeting of the Legislature, but we learn that he has consented to let his friends in the Legislature show their approval of Gov. Bragg's appointment by his election to fill the vacancy oc casioned by the resignation of Judge Person. Judge Shepherd has always been a hard student, he is an able lawyer, and will reflect credit on the bench. His associates at. the bar in tho counties where he practised will regret to part with him. Courteous and respectful to all with whom he came in contact, he enjoyies the confidence and respect of all parties. He will carry vsitli him to the bench the best wishes of all who know him. Of his elec tion by the Legislature there can be no doubt. SPOILS. The strongest feeling the opposition have in the use they make of this sterreot-ped slang is a desire to succeed to the place of the "villainous spoilsmen." They have been barred from the "feast" so long their rapacity has outgrown their cunning, and betrays itself in alarming outbursts against the "plundering army headed by the Administration. What a righteous sot they are; their political phiH osophy springs from the pvo fountains of virtue and morality, and was not hatched from the miasma of bigotry, prejudice and intolerance; they would'ut have the spoils, oh, no! No Editor in their ranks would receive a farthing of Government patronage; no brawling orator from their rabble host would have an office; they would cheerfully work for nothing, and carry on the business of Government upon such economical principles as not. to cost a cent. One of our cotemporaries, speaking of tho de mocracy says, "This great army of oxpectatants. K-r ,io ranks or rrrivatrs, but are all leaders.' What an inducement for him to join! He could never be a leader in his own party, but was always very successful in making the tail end very promi nent. From the same sage quarter another dis covery is mide, that "all the tatcnt is leaving the whig party" for the tempting field offered in the dearth of that commodity among the spoilsmen. Happy thing for him if this depletion continues, for after all the talent leaves he maj- attain to some distinction. The world is a Httla too intelligent to take the old garbage of a defuct party for fresh political wisdom, even if it is borrowed from that antediluvian hetacomh, the National Intelligencer. ti.o Democracv have suffered defeat from the country:; we love t'o advocate its principles, and Black republicans in the free States having also to publish to the world its success ; it is with anything but pleasure we can witness its defeat, but if is only a political defeat, only a partv e?at' 'vo cheerfully submit to the decision of the majority, trad with good grace admit that "we have met the enemy and that we ar But when we see our country defeated with our party, when we see them defeated by a combination of all the odds and ends that can be found to break down the only true, the only rational, the only conservative par ry in this country, because that party has proven true to itself, true to its country, true to the Con stitution, and true to our section nnd our interest as a slave holding people ; when we see section array ed against section, and designing, disappointed, am bitious demagogues taking advantage of popular prejudice and excitement, to elevate themselves to places of honor and distinction, instead of standing forth as faithful sentinels to give notice of the ap proach of danger; while we hope for the future, we must confess that we have our fears for the safety of this republic; w must confess that we have our fears for the result in 18G0. Who will be our standard bearer in that contest? lr - .- CM1 .tS.Ga , 0.. 3 . tional Democratic Convention" which will assem ble in Charleston for the purpose of nominating candidates for President and Vice President, will select some sound, conservative, national democrat, some man worthy of the confidence and support of every lover of his country, whether he comes from "Pennsylvania;" the old "Key stone of the arch;" in the person of our present worthy Chief Magis trate, the Hon. James Buchanan, the profound jurist, the able Statesman and true patriot, or from the "Granite Hills" of New Hampshire, in the person of the Hon. Franklin Pierce, the finished and accomplished scholar, the bold and fearful defender of the right, the tried and faithful public servant, the national man, without fear and without reproach, we know that the national, the conser vatiue 'South wiD with a bold, united, undivided front, rally as.Sne man, to ensure their triumphant election to the highest offices within the gift of any people npon earth. The recent triumph over the administration in tates of Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana, ay tsnjoyed by tho BUck Republicans, and disapfJinUd, miscalled "democr ef the North . with some "Know nothings of the" SoutKT4 with all good, and true-men;- of all parties, and front ajj sectipna who desire thtf-ifeace and prosperity of the wbole country, it will be fagtifed upon as a triumph over the democratic party at. tye .expense of the best and dearest interest of "the country. The elections in all the Southern States are favorable to. the administration all that the South asks of any administration, is to a dminister the govern ment according to the Constitution they contrib- struggle against an arm of the same party that rules in the Town of Fayetteville; the same party that claim Forty thousand votes in North Carolina. Against this ignominious coalition, leagued with every bandit crew of political pirates abolitionism could marsh all, a brave and noble band of national men battled for the supremacy of the democratic party and the safety of tho union, and was over whelmed in the conflict, a pitiful enemy it was that could see no motive to influence, no impulse to ani mate that heroic minority save "plunder." To one not familiar with American politics, or rather, with the slang of the opposition, this "plun der and spoils" would suggest that the whole coun try was given up for pillage and sack, and the suc cessful party constituted into a baud of wholesale robbers. The gunpowder fame of Gen. Taylor, gave the much coveted "spoils" to the whig party, and their appreciatioh of the opportunity for "plunder" was so superior that nearly the whole revenue of the Government was absorbed in one operation upon the public crib. They would like to repeat the experiment. STCOPHANCY, If there is a class lower down in the scale of humanity than any other; if there is an object of fathomless degradation, too pitiful for a mark of contempt, it is a fawning, boot-licking sycophant, a living, walking libel on manhood. Such toads never forget their origin, which must be as abject and beggerly as their character. The law of circumstances may make divisions and grades in society, or a contrariety in tastes, habits, and inclination, dispose classes ; accidents of birth and education may distinguish station, but there is not in the economy of Gd, or in human laws, or the casualties and discipline of life, or in the dignity of reason, an apology or licence for such a creature as our subject describes. There is no mistaking the character, no con founding the one with another. Homage to creat ress, deferance to superiority, or even man-wor ship Jrom enthusiastic admiration, is allowable and common, but this lowest order of animals we are describing, is something else. A man that can reduce himself to a toad, to recognise the swelling importance of a siuiilar object, and feel himself elevated by such degrading servility, is less respectable than the meanest urthat licks the dust. FEimsTLVANIA, OHIO AJtD Ttf- TVT ATM A "ET.'ECTION'S . mi.. ii.- it Qofua onaistinsr of xu opposition ill tuese Kiwy, c Black republicans, know nothings, wbigs, anti Lecomptonites, plug uglies, and every striped, streaked, cut-throat order of politicians, nave obtained a decided victory over the National democracy, electing 35 out of 57 members to Congress. Of course this result gives great satisfaction to the Southern wing of. the oppo sition, who are heralding with great emphasis and exaltation, the overthrow of the Democrat ic party. ' While we regret this seeming discomfiture of the National Administration, we see in it as little cause for serious alarm as in the croaking -,wn,t f tho rmnnsition. It is well known that in 1854. when the measure for "a repeal of the Missouri Compromise," agitated every po litical circle in the country, that only seven democratic Congressmen were elected in the three States of Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana.i Two years after, in 1856, Jas. Buchanan was trin m nhantlv elected President of the Unitea States, and with him. an increase of nearly! thirty members of Congress, in the same States mentioned. We see nothing to discourage tha democracy in these recent elections, two years. more will put them straight, and with the brave old flag of democracy,. we .wilL.sht.OVeCwlbe )iattlMa( 1858. --Kcw York promises to rMiA Pennsylvania, and with her score of "true men" the American Congress may once more be national. The following is from the Fewnsyl- vanian: . . . The Election on Tuesday. - - A characteristic trait of the Democratic party is that it never refuses to be comforted over the past. It may and does look back on the path trod by its gallant and devoted follow ers, but only to draw from thence threads of wisdom and knowledge by which to make com pact the woof of the future. When defeat comes t'.ie past is searched for parallel cases, in order to re-animate the spirits of the faithful, and bid them gaze with unfaltering eye on the coming duties, be they ever so fierce and exacting. The present defeat in our State is widespread and terrible. Some of our most cherished champions have been unhorsed, and many Dis tricts, which have heretofore been considered impregnable, have fell before the attacks of the allied forces. This state of things would seem to indicate a complete prostration of the De mocracy in the old Keystone. It is so con sidered by the opposition, and already- their presses are jubilant over the prospects for 1860. The friends of Seward an 3 Crittenden are sep arating on the question of nominating their respective candidates, and thus the fight opens with all the evidence of a fresh and exciting contest. But the opposition' are mistaken as to the character and extent of this defeat. It is not unparalleled. The great victory in 1856, which elevated James Buehanan to the Chief Magistracy of the Nation, was heralded by a defeat compared to which the present is a sum mer flaw. Then the qnestion was the endorse ment of the Kansas-Nebraska bill which had been passed under the administration of that fearless and indomitable Democrat and utrirht public servant Franklin Pierce, and the result n tne nve states ot Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylva 20 21 11 28 4 former nia. Aew xorfc ana jn ew J ersey wm o ivjU Dem. Opp. In Pcnna., the members returned were, 5 Ohio " " 0 Indiana " " " J New York " " - " 5 New Jersey " " This was a sad falling off from the elections in these States, at which the returns stood 12 members from Ohio, 23 from New York, 5 from New Jersey, 16 from Pennsylva nia, 10 from Indiana. Yet, notwithstanding this defeat in 1854, in two years from that time the Democracy, not only of those States, but in all sections of the Union, rallied for the fight, and after one of the most desperate political contests on record, carried the Union, endorsed the Kansas-Nebraska Lul, paid a just tribute to Fraukliu Pierce, and placed in the Presidential chair the present worthy and patriotic officer, iUr liuciianan. vvno would nave thought that such results would flow from the defeat of 1854? let they did, and similar ones will follow the present overthrow if the party be true.to itse'f, true to its principles and true to its organization.

Great rejoicings in advance in whiskey. being equence W. W. HOLDEN. We see in the' Standard of the 20th, a card from the above named gentleman, addressed to the Democratic party of North Carolina, noticing some charges that have been recently circulated against him, to the following effect; " First, It is charged that I am exerting myself to "punish" (that is the word used) those who opposed my nomination for Governor at Charlotte. Secondly, It is charged that I am seeking a Senatorship in the Congress of the United States, and that I will contiune to do so at a sacrifice of the harmony and integrity of the Democratic party. - Thirdly, It is charged that I wrote, or. sug gested, or advised, or instigated the articles whfch have recently appeared in the Warrent'ori' iews in relation po "f ederal and estate ap pointments." " We intended to publish the card entire, this wsek, but are prevented from doing so we will publish it in onr next. It always affords us pleasure to give place to such statements as those contained in the card alluded to. If there is any man in North Carolina that deserves credit and the applause of his fellow citizens, without refdrence to party, that man is W. W. Ilolden ; if there is any man entitled to the thanks of the Democratic party, tnat man is W. W. Holden. It was his lot to be born in humble circflmstances, he is indebted to his own efforts for what he is to-day, he is a self-made man, a North Carolinian of tb right stripe. The position he occupies before the country is one any man may feel proud to occupy. In honoring him the people WDuld be honoring themselves. Mr Holden has the confidence of the demo cratic party in North Carolina, and, is above the shafts of envy and malice. EFWe have received a communiation from Gray's Creek, recommending the formation of a Volunteer Regiment, and suggests the 28th of this month as a favorable opportunity to introduce the project. The argument of the writer on the sub ject is good and we are sorry it came to hand too late tor insertion. We hope this notice will call Military attention to the subject. ... are not so wedded to noli tina as to be unwilling to wti anythin el t, eontra. T We have ever hein ft innniprinna m, fnr A P'd. The following essav treats the mh. ject very seriously and very prettly.

We beloved. for I may lie 4t 10 thy sight 'neath tfie same Mue sky ; ne more thou hast loved, the less thy pain, - ie stronger thy hope till w meet again-; And forth on thy pathway, we do not know, Y lth a load of love my soul would go. There is one kind of love which, though bet ter, perhaps, for a man's soul, than the absence ot all love, is yet. even in its most'desrenerate form, " of the LM ; jr.. .".,-- - yr" iu cope with the impurities or sense and Ethe corruption of time - Alack for the sorceries of 'Julia nnd Fausti na J The fair ministers in the temnle of AdD- rodite Pandemos are heaps of hideous bones.

Plato loved the spright ly damsel who came up from Ctsiphon better than the republic: that noisome dust is the beauty of Archconassa. . Draw the shroud tighter around the carrion, and leave it to the worms. But there !s another love to which these pen JrtJ&f.do pot attach a -love strong in its, weak-, ness,; prouu in us numiiuy, joyiui m its self- abasement: a love that can see the bloom of hope and the vigor of youth nay even t he in nocent purity of the child's heart depart, and yet feel that what is taken away does not detract from the worthiness of the beloved ob ject, bat only adds to the deep tenderness of its regard. The white hand may wither, the smooth cheek wrinkle, the eye become dim and clouded, the body bent and altenuatad: these nay change, but that love changes not, for its f divine instinct of self-sacrifice leaches over the mortal and penetrates the essential life which God has made indestructible as his heaven. "Strong Son of God, immortal Love!"' Yes, we thank God that there is one love which can defy the worm and despoil the grave, and which, knowing well the mutibility and adherent perishableness' of man's strength and beauty, knows it without fear or quaking, or that terrible misgiving of the - heart which the tragic poet has declared to be the hardest of all mortal woe to bear. I How charmingly fresh and vivid, as of to dayas if that has been bequeathed us of pure love in the Pastoral East though it was pain ted in the old times "aye, ages long ago!" 1-Jow it beams out upon us in its simple human oeouiy, inongn tnai oinerwise grim, foal, blood besmeared past ! I ' Who is this that cometh up from the wil derness, leaning upon her beloved? As the ilv among thorns, so is mv love amonr the aighters. My beloved spake and said unto me Rise p.my love my fair one, and come away; for ;the winter is past, the rain is over and gone, c flowers appear, the time of the sinffinar of lirds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land. The fig-tree putteth forth her green leaves, and the vines with the tender grape give a' good smell. Arise my love, my fair oie. and come away. - Oh! my dove that larWDine cieits ot tne rocKs. in the secret pia- let nieear thy voice; for sweet is thy voice, and th countenance is comely. "My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feed- eth among the lilies. Come, my beloved, let s go forth into the field; let us lodge in the villages; let us get np early to the vineyards; let u see if the vines nourish whether the ten der grapes appear and the pomgranates bad forta, there will I give the my loves. The manlrakes gave a smell, and at our gates are all manner of pleaseiit fruits, new and old, which I have laid up for thee, oh! my beloved. "set roe as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm; for love is strong as death; jeloasey is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hatha most vehement flams. Many waters cannot quench love; neith er can tho floods drown it. ' If a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would be utterly contemned. Awake oh! north wind, and corae thon south: blow up on my garden, that the spices thereof may flow outv Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruit." fe could not resist copying this beautiful picture, more especially since some solemn im becilities have said in their folly that the poem from which it is taken is impure an opinion even more false and uncritical than that which affirms that it is not dictated by, and does not describe, the tenderness of the human ipassion, but is only meant to represent certain esoterit mysteries of the church. In other words, that Dante, when he drew Beatrice, thought of the Catholic hierarchy, and not of Beatrice a damnable heresy that once prevailed in Chris tendom, but that has died cnt once since meu's minds were quickened to the wider truth, i f'Love is sUong as death: jealousy is cruel as the, grave." The man who penned these wordwas not writing on the mystical relations of thai religious life. . SATIRICAlh The "opposition" are harmless enough in voting but their satire is awful, what can be worse than this: For Vice, President, ' JOHN A. GILMER. Now this is really malicious, but Certainly a very graceful mode of expressing their contempt for the administration and tha high office of Vice President. " Not having the private conversation of Mr Breckenridge to retail, and his offici.il character being like Mr Buchanan's, too high for their mud balls they have chosen to insult his high office and himself at the expense of Mr Gilmer. Vice President, forsooth! The latter will be lucky enough if he ever can show his nose in Con- gress agiin. Perhaps Mr G. will decline a re-election since his colleague Giddings has not been re-turned. Hi9 melancholly would unfit him for tno proper dis charge of his duties to find the place of his beloved friend filled by another. We hope tho democracy of his district will again give him battle in the gal lant Williams, or JohnKerrof Caswell. Rock Valley, N. C. BY W. F. WIGnTMAJf.

The Black Republican majority in Ohio is less than 15000, a loss to that party since 1856 of 18090 votes.

OILED Coffee, it is well known, is superior to coffee made after the French fashion, by straiti- inc: but. when boiled in an ordinary coffee pot, the fine aroma goes off with (be vapor, leaving the infu sion flat or bitter, hence a resort by many housekeep ers to the French biggin. Recently, there has been patented a new coffee pot, which entirely removes the common objection of waste of strength and flavor by evaporation in boiling. It is called the -'Old Do minion Coffee Pot," and is made with a condenser at the ton, in which two syphons are arranged. After the coffee and water are placed in the coffee pot, the condenser, containing a small portion of cold water. is put on, and the spout closed with a movable cap, so that not a particK1 of vapor can escape. As soon as the coffee begins to boil, the vapor, instead of being given off into the room, passes up one of the syphons, and is condensed by the cold water, into which as much of the aroma as was carried off with the vapor, is discharged. As the coffee continues to boil, the vapor loaded with the aroma, continues to pass through the syphon into the water lield in the conden ser, until the water is raised above the level of the other syphon, when the whole passes back, by suction into the coffee below. Thus the coffee is boiled, and yet does not lose a particle of its fine aroma or strength. Home Magazine.
