both as regards number and standing Those assembled were very attentive ; and though many f litem xt ere those who have heretofore ranged themselves under the banner of "Tippecanoe and Tyler too,' they did credit to themselves and the coun ty of which they compose a part, by the courteous manner in which they' attended to the speaker. There was little or no ii .terrupiion; and so far as I have been able Ho ascertain the sentiments & feelings of the larger part, of lite assemblage, the speech will not lie forgotten It is destined to be jemembered, talked about, leflected on, and, so forcibly were its propositions pro veil, that I am-convinced, it will be by many, believed and acted on. Indeed I have beard some of the wing party of standing and influence, declare they were done with wbiggcry, and its advocates. You tuny depend upon it sir, Mr. Henry lias not visited the mountains for nothing; and if yon ask me for he proof of tliis as sertion, I give it to you in the excitement and trepidation in the fears and exertions, made by those of the whin leaders (whose opinions truth cannot reach) to counteract Mie effect, and render abortive, the altenipt so successfully made, to expose the false promises heretofore made by themselves, their inability to govern the country and the manifest signs of ruin and defeat which attend every where. Mr. Henry is a very able debater. Dignified without haughtiness, acute with out craftiness, winy and when occasion demands it sarcastic, without scurrility, eloquent without being pompous, he ne cessarily injures attention and commands the remembrance of his hearers, lie is pemlemanly. you know full of humor in public speaking, he has a manner pecul iar to himself very droll, be nud;es a cro wd laugh in spite of itself and at times, very eloquent, though different from Judge Saunders. Some of the Whigs are trying to misre present hi? arguments, and to destroy their effect; they were very busy the evening fier his speech. Still, I tell you, you may count on a change, comparing the coming election with that of 1840, or I am wofully deceived. Yours &c. THE WHIG CONVENTION. This body assembled at Raleigh, on Monday the 4;li insi. There were 3.") Counties represented, und about 250 dele gates in attendance. They passed a num ber of resolutions, lamenting the death of Harrison; expressing full confidence in Whig principles; denouncing Tyler, and disavowing all connection with him; nomi nating Henry Clay for ihe Presidency; ap proving of the conduct of John M. More head, and nominating him f r Coventor; and disapproving of Mr. Tyler's recom mendation to repeal the Distribution law The Raleigh Siar says: "As suon as the Resolution nominating Go Morehead had lie n ailoyicd, that 3islir.guil id gentleman, w ho had been waited vycn ly n Com mittee, appeared before the Convcntionvaiid in an eloqucnt and appropriate address accepted lie no mination, and avowed his undiminished confidence in T big measures and Whip prir.cii Irs. lie said he had gone into oflicc with the determination to l.c the Governor of the statc, and not of a party, ' and whatever others might allege ag-.tim-l him, he Al that he had rediwmcd the pledge he then made, lie dwelt Uj)on the coaditkn of th c W hig jsrtv and expressed his confident belief th at in the ensu ing contest they would achieve a glorious icloiy. So John M. Morehead accepts the nom ination. We are heartily glad of it. The Convention passed one resolution, which shows that its members are becom ing alarmed at the signs of the limes- It is as follows: And although this Convention are sensi ble of the objections which be against a canvass of Hie Siato by an official person age like the Governor, and cannot, as a general practice, recommend or approve llie same, yet considering the efforts now making by the Loco Foco Candidate for thatoince", as well as by others of the par ty, by artifice and misrepreprescntalion, to delude the good people f North Carolina into the support of that candidate for Governor- "jui!ii e mmiIi idem ihe whig cause and whig principles, this convention deem the present an occasion on which, all objections against the practice should yield to the welfare of the people, the su preme law of patriotic minds; and there fore, Resolved, That Coventor Morehf.ad ought, in the judgment of this Convention, and he is hereby respectfully desired to meet ami address his fellow citizens, when and where he shall deem it necessa ry, in order to prevent the success of those efforis, and to promote ihe cause of truth and sound political principles. Thev think it wrong for an official per sonage like the Coventor, to canvass the Slate; yet they recommend and desire their candidate to be guilty of that wrong, in order lo promote the success of the parly! Very patriotic men, to be sure ! HOUSE OF- REPRESENTATIVES. J - April 4, 1842. The General Appropriation bill being under consideration in Committee of llie whole, . 0:i the clause miking appropriations for the mini at Philadelphia, an I the branch mints at Charlotte and Daiilonega, Geor gia. Mr. Willis Green intimated his intention, whn the proper ti ne ca ne, to move to strike out all appropriations for these branch u' in :s. The committee then proceeded, and when the clause appropriating a sum for the payment of the workmen at the Dah ni(ga branch mint was u;iJjr consideration. .Mr. Garret Dm moved lo strike out that appropriation, and contended that' the mint at l'hilidelphia was ah!e to make all the coinage req-iired, and thai the expenses of coming at the branch mints were greater in proportion than at the mint at Philadel phia. - Mr. G. W". Caldwell inquired how the gentleman from Kentucky proposed to ac complish the "reform and retrenchment" about which he talked so much? Suppose his motion now prevailed, would he abol ish this rnin:J No. Would he save one cent to ihe Government? No. Would lie then deprive the officers of their salaries? No. Why then should he consume the time of tli3 committee witfi these projects of 'retrenchment and ' reform," when his motion, if it should prevail, would save nothing at all? Was not its effect to be merely to show to ihe country that such a motion had been made, that credit may be obtained for prop .ing "reforms," although it is known at the time that by it no "re form" can be effected? The gentleman ta'ked about ihe. savings that would lie effected bv all the coinage being done at Philadelphia, but he should be glad lo see it demonstra'ed bv figures. lie could show tit at the coinage costs less at the branch mints than a: Pennsylvania, and if" any should be abolished, he could show thai ii should be ihe mint at Philadelphia. That mint cost $60,000 per annum to keep it up, which was $43,000 more than ihe expense of ihe mini ai Charlotte, and more than the expei.se of ihe branch mints al logether. lie, however, did not now pro pose logo into an argument on this ques tion, but whenever it properly came upon a proposition to repeal ihe law establishing the branch mint ai Charlotte, be would show that all the arguments of the gentle man from Kentucky were worth noth ing. Mr. Willis Green having made some ob servation.. Mr. Mack said the gentleman from Ken lucky was behind the proper time with his motion: it should have beejn made at an earlier period, and not on an appropriation for the payment of ihe workmen of one branch, v hen ihe committee bail passed tiie appropriations for others without objec tion. Mr. H. went on to give the amount of gold coined at the mints of Georgia arid North Carolina, and the amount coined at the principal mint at Philade lphia, from which he showed that the annual expense of the branch mints was less in proportion to their amount of coinage., than thai of ihe principal mini. He then went on to show the impolicy of abolishing the mints in the tegion wiiere the gold was produced, when ihe expense and risk of transportation, to gether with the great inconvenience of the producer, was taken into consideration Take away, said he, the gold of Georgia, the Caroltnas, and Virginia, from the prin cipal mini, and whal would it have to de pend on ? Merely the foreign bullion brought into the country. And if the for eigh importation was any consideration, the mint at New Oilcans should he retain ed, or one established in New York, and the principal commercial rhies, where the most of the bullion is received,' instead of depending alone on the mint at Philadel phia, an inland city. Mr. B. contended ti.at on the score of economy, the branch mints should be retained, as the expense of keeping them up as less, in proportion to the amount o! coinage, Hiait thai ol v.c Philadelphia mint. .Mr. 55. showed the "real inconveniences and losses that would be sustained by the owners of ttie mines, and the laborers employed on them, by abolishing ihe mints, inconsequence ofihe speculators who surrounded the mines, and who speculated on litem to a ruinous extent. .Mr. Garret. Davis explained. Mr. Hlack said the gentleman's inten tions were one thing, and his acts another. Me then drew a parallel between the gentle man's conduct in this instance, and what it would be o i a question for the protection of domestic manufactures. This, however, was not a question of protection, but of the rendition of equal and evenhanded justice. The question was further debated by Mrssrs. Hlack, Habersham, Morgan, and Caldwell. Mr. A. V. Brown opposed the amend ment, and contended that the mints should be kept in the region in which the gold ws found, and if any were pulled down, they should begin and pull down at Phila delphia. Mr. Graham also opposed tbn amend ment, and spoke in support of the branch mints. Mr. Everett participated in the discus sion, and Mr. Gilmer next obtained the floor, but gave way for a motion to rise. Hie vote on which was laken by tellers, as follows ayes G2, noes 41, which was Jess than t quorum. The committee rose and reported that fact to the House, and the House l'en adjourned.
