THE CHARLOTTE BULLETIN.
Tl.i journal has printed for our satisfaction and
al - o to correct an impression that Mr Hell sustains
Judge Douglas' views 'on territorial autho ity a
speech by that gentleman giving his views for I. is
opposition to the Kansas Nebraska bill. The posi
tion of the Bulletin is as lame as the speech of Mr
F,,ll, which we think when placed together makes '
rather a lame crowd.

reliance to he place'! u;on the opinion of the Bulle

him a clear record as t .c-tSeSTro by the BuIUtin to
e'l-ct hiin wiU be to ccomplih it.
As proof of Mr Bell's inconsistency, look at page
V2th vol , Congressional Globo, 1S50. On the
20 Pb' of that XMr. M? Bo11 said : "whil 'AfF-
I ent organization of material creation stand, Afri-

M 'x-r How clocs thc Blieti ke that? How
is Mr Bell's prophecy- carried out? New Mexico
h is established African slavery, and that by virtue
of ;h theory of S. A. DOUGLAS, of Illinois I
This is as consistent as the position of Mr Bell
when thc Kansas bill was introduc-d, II E pledged
his rote for it and baeled out fuv fear of losing
Northern popularity ! ! It is about as consistent aa
Mr Bell's position upon the Clayton compromise,
and for fear our friends of the Bulletin may have
forgoiten that bill we will refresh his mrmorv, and
e-ive him .nrt l.-r -lohn BpII nitT
We presume that the Editor of the Bulletin
might have heard people talk about the i errito -
ry added to the Union by Polk and the Democratic
party, and that out of that Territory wc were to
make some States, bavins slavery in their eovern-
' mant
'Ihis Territory lay between Missouri and
the Pacific.
We also hid a line called the Missouri
line, which extended to Missouri ; all Territory
South of that line was to be left free sin open to the;
people of all sections to form cither free ot slave
State on the North slavery was prohibited. Now as
that line dfd not lay off this " con i red Territory to
the South of it,, it was considered by the North as
open only to Northern Institutions. This of course.
created no inconsiderable opposition: in -the- South,
for "they "considered this Territory theirs -equiTry
with the North. Mr. Clayton, of Dckware. A
WHIG inst like Johny Bell, only that he may be
consicic?rea trom tne xsortn, brought in a bill to cx-
tend the M'isfcHiri line to the Pacific Ocean, thereby
giving the South the begerly advantage she possessed
under the compromise (?) and Mr Bulletin. John
Bell, of Tennessee, John Bell, one of ttt& from the.
South, voted against it!! S. A. - DOUGLAS voted
for it !.'!
Friend Bulletin, before you ntrtempt to lecture
Democrats upon Douglas, go and look up your
favorite's record. Fy, for shame!

HURRAH FOR THE NOMINEE.
That's it but who in crAtion is it ? Well, it i3
hard to tell hard as it was when the "Constitu
tional Union Enfoicenent of the Law" party met
in the city of Baltimore,' as to who should receive
the nomination. Crittenden was too sound for tho
coon trom Massachusetts. wouldn't do to run him
he voted For the Clayton compromise he wasn't
sound on the Northern goose question. But Jonny
Bell was the bo-h-o-y ! He had voted both ways,
and fitted both precisely,!! Jonney Bell had voted
for the repeal of the rule adopted by Congress to
prevent ablition-discussions a rule adopted by the
wisdom of past generations, to put a stop to the dis
cussion of "slavery. That rule provided for the laying
of abolition petitions on the table without debate.
Mr Bell, in his wisdom, thought that would not do
hit cousins, must nave an opportunity of protest
ing against the-eriZ of slavery us lie thought.
This was the first blow struck at the South the
first bulwark for her protection was swept away in
purt by the vote or" John Cell ! Rut we are digres-

GIVE US A WHISTLE.
The Wilmington Herald after sheding crocodile
tears over the difficulty in the Democratic raflks at
Baltimore says :
No Democrat can carry Pennsylvania, first be
cause the free trade notions so generally prevalent
in that party, are peculiarly distasteful to her peo
ple ; and next, because there is a bitter and irrecon
cilable, feud- between the Douglas and Buchanan
wings,, which renders it impossible for theia to act
in harmony. We can carry it, and that makes tho
election of our candidate a certainty, if they South
rn Democrats Will only do what they have so often

ally upon the strongest man to break down the Re-

Oh, for a whistle ta kep us from laughing at the

Symc of the Register is anxious. in his ad valorem
passion to declare thc law 'executing: a slave for
murder as uncqnst-nft'ional ; also that the execution
of a slave for rape as unconstitutional. He finds
fault with the democracy for declaring thet they are
both persons and property. Mr S. holds up his
dijets in holy horror and declares that abolition
doctrine.; that they are property alone for all pur
poses of legislation !! J
You cannot execute the property, of a num. as
property for murder, nor can any law sanction the
; execution of a chattle alone for rape. Property is
j not responsible for an act committed by itself er.
1 8os are. Property cannot be arraigned before a
irxr p.,- :., i;ftt...,.
The Abolitionists strive in the Northern. States .to
get a negro out ot difficulties of the above nature,
by the very arguments of the Register ; but in va
ritnis instances, tho Court has decided that negroes
are both perso and property. The Constilutioi,
has so said; the fugitive slave law has, saW "it.
The New York Tribune, of a date last week, stated
that the cry of ad valorem in. Virginia nd North
Carolina was but the creation of a free labor par
ty, which in the succeeding Presidential elections,
would be a powerful anxilaryto tho Republican parn
ty. Let us know friend Syrae, when you intend to
beconge an aux.'lery to the Tribune ; wo'nt you ?
We look for it with deep interest.
V. may have been considered premature in
hoisting the name of J. C. BRECKINRIDGE, as
the candidate of our party for President. We are
willing however to submit our case to the judge
ment and decision of the party in the United States
at the election in November next. We have put
tip because he is Zc facto the nominee of the
party and also because he has. always been our
first choice above and over all others ! Our position
in regard to Mr. Douglas is; simply this : we consid
hitn a great statesman, a. Democrat and would not
therefore allow him to be traduced and vilified by
men or parties who were not his equaL This much
we consider due to Mr. D.
THE NOMINATIONS.
We have read in the Journal of Tuesday a de
fense of the course of North Carolina for seceding
from the Bal imore Convention. It is clear, pointed
and vindicates the coarse of the delegates.
The Goldsboro Tribune, has put up the names of
Breckioridge and Lane. The Standard has not vet
taken; a position. Iho Charlotte Democrat did not
haviQ intelligence of tho nomination when going to
press. The Goldsboro Rough Notes advocates the
holding of a State convention to decid upon the
course to be pursued, but is for Breckinridge nnd
Lane. Does friend Robinson wish to censure the
Delegates, or will he support 'their action. The
Charlotte . Bulletin wiU also sapport Brockioridge

B'ALTIMORE. "
Plugugly ism, blood-roughism, and all the" isinis
inci lent to the K. N. city has seemed to take pos.
session of the Democrats, and if they do not make ,
nominations, they will make black eyes and bloody I
faces.
Big Bill Montgomey from the twentieth Congres
sional district of Pennsylvania has had a chance to
show his pugelistic capabilities, and he has done so j
pretty handsomely. BUI is a quiet man till aroused,
and then look out lor squais. lie it in words or j
blows, dill always makes his strokes felt. He has j
always been a favorite of ours, but we fear his being j
defeated for re-nomination to Congress makes him i
exasperutod, and that he is begming to show a rath
er crusty disposition, and we will have to repudi
ate our first choice for Speaker during the lust ses
sion of Congress.
What is tln Convention going to do? "Aye
there's the rub." Well, it will not require the aid
of prophetic agency to tell. We can see it as
plainly as the noe upon the face of oiir "-d.ecil;"
and, ot course, we may ah wta mae up our minU
for the VCry WOl St. !
The Convcatioi will "'bust;" that is certain as 1
shQ0tinT. At any event, Douglas is and will be the
nominee of the party, and all attempts to defeat him i
- " '
will prove aooruve. in mo ex ent oi a rupture, tiio ;
nomination of Douglas will be made by acclamation;
and in the event of adhesion lie will control 173
votes upon the first ballot, leaving bet 30 to gain for ,
two-thirds. '
It is said that should there be a secession, the se-
ceders will assemble in Baltimore and nominate a
fsiket. That will be another illegal Convention, for
they were not accredited to any except Richmond
and the National Convention. It is also said that
two delegates from this State will withdraw hy
surmise, wo. should say this is friend Fulton and Mr.
Avery. In the event of this being so, they, or

Such a result would inevitably expose the country
to thc of sectional strifo between the Northern
ami Southern partisans of Congressional intervention
upon thc subject of Slavery in the Territories. I
firmly and conscientiously believe tliat there is no
safety for the country no hope fiy the preservation
of the Union, except by a. faithful anI i igid adher
auc tk tk doctrine of nort-iiitemeiittorby Congress
with Slavery in the Territories, lntervcntioiv means
disunion. There is iv. ditference in principle be
tween Northern and Southern intervention. The
one intervenes for Slavery; but each appeals tq the
passions and prejudices of his own scctic.u. against
j ttae peace of th,e. wlto'e country and the right,, of sclf-
