BGU Tie editor U absent this week, in attend ance on the Convention t Charlotte. " Is tub Mipit of Life wi are in Death." -Within a very short period of time, death has tawi from this community fivo of its most car teemed and beloved members. Wo have been expecting that some of the numerous friends of each would .have prepared and forwarded, to us, for publication, obituaries giving thort histories of their lives and deaths fur the edification and ; "rbCl of bur readers. It is well thus to. do It is)tfrjNur bpiuibn,'a duty which surviving rela tives and friends owe to the memory of the dead apd to tho living. It is, as it were, a voice from the grave, saving to all, the world, " Repent ye, . for tho Kingdom of God is at hand." Had ire the time, and were we possessed of the requisite information, we would cheerfully, for the sake of the Iking, who are speedily to die, perform this duty, and esteem it a " labor of love." Rut, a we have not the one, and cannot, in tho nature of things, be expected to possess the other, we uiut leave this duty.to those to whom it legitimately belongs, and wash our hands of all accountability in the matter. ' Rut there is one of whose death we fain would fpcak. One of whom we have learned more sir.ee his decease, than possibly we should have known had he and we lived for many years, for so gently did he pursue the even tenor of his way, and so unostentatious and unpretending was his life, that we should not have '-dreamed (as indeed we did not) that Walter R. Leak was the friend, the counsclhr, the adviser, the instructor, the moral father of many a wild and wsy ward youth, whose after life is the best evidence of the happy influ ence exerted over them by him whom they grate fully characterize as. thei:--" best friend." fie was the tciilow't and the prphan's friend, and many, yea many, are they who will hallow the irueniory of the man whose kindness sought them out, and not only relieved their immediate and pressing wants, but provided fur their future by giving them the means to prosecute success fully, and acquire honorably, the comforts of life. Such a man is a loss to any community, and his "death will leave a blank In AnJSft whicTITahnol. be speedily, if ever, filled. Those who sorrow for his loss should not forget the consolation that is theirs, for they sorro-x not without hope. "JJIeMed are the dead who die in the Lord, for tliev ret from their labors, and their Works dofolluwtuem! ' "There is, therefore, a rest fur the people of God! " teS lion. John A. Gilmer will please accept .our thanks for valuable public documents. 3Ttie Southern litcrar? Messenger fur May has come to hand.

We adopt the article of tho Richmond H'Aiy, introducing it to its readers. It had been previously committed to paper, that he. might deliberately weigh every sentiment and word he should utter. It ia the first time in his lifu that Mr. Rives has ever written political speech previous to its delivery. Ho was, thorcforo, naturally somewhat embarrassed and confused ia attempting .jo follow out hii written remarks, and, his mcu.ory failing turn in tho wholly unac customed attempt, bo asked tho indulgence ol tho audience until hii manuscript should be brought him, which being done, he proceeded with his speech, and delivered it with gnat earn estness, animation, and effect. It was listened to throughout Ly tho vast multitude present, with the most respecful and profound attention, utid produced, as it could not have failed to do, upon the minds of all candid and impartial li on of both' parties, a decided, and, we believe, a deep aqd lasting impression. It was the speech of a calm, enlightened, wise, aud patriotic states man, whose long political experience and obser vation necessarily impart to his utterance un usual importance and weight. It was addressxd tJ tho patriotism, tho intelligence, the indepen dence, and the manliness of the country, and dis dained all resort to partisan clup-trup and all appeal to mere partisan passion nnd prejudice. It was a speech which should be carefully read be pondered be meditate don; fur its elevated doctrines and patriotic sentiments are worthy of being inculcated and impressed upon the minds of the whole people of the Union, without dis tinction of party or section. " This conservative speech of a great con servative statesman, who h.is discharged, with distinction to - himself and with credit to his country, high public trusts, Loth at home and abroad, we commend to the calm and thoughtful pcrustl of our readers. In this speech, Mr. Rives has pot tray cd tho extravagance, the abuses, and the corruptions of the party in power in tho liveliest colors, in a most vigorous nnd masterly manner; aud has deinotistratedtue im mediatepressing, absolute necessity of nfurm, in all the departments of the national adminis tration, if we would guard the public morals, de fend the sacred deposit of the public liberties, and perpetuate our noble free institutions. So man of any party can read this portion of Mr. Rivcs's able and admirable speech, without being convinced that wo have fallen upon evil times, end that duty, patriotism, self preservation de mand a change a prompt, 'thorough, radical change in the administration of the Federal Government. According to Democratic admis sions, there lias never before c'xisted so much aud suth "UliblUshlng coffupfiulT asTriow prevails in all tho departments, great and small, of the General Government which corruption, from the by-ways and high-ways of tho Government, as the. Washington Statt tells us, -sends forth an insufferable stench ! Surely,, the honest and patriotic voters of nil parties will agree with Mr.. Rives that reform should be the watchword and the battle-cry of all who would rescue the Gov ernment from tho hands of spoilsmen and plun derer, and forc it to its pristine simplicity and purity of all who would not see tlie public gtilfcd, and our glorious free institutions -overturned-. . We invoke the people- to " reflect, calmly and deliberately, upon the present condi tion of the country, as depicted in such just and vivid Colors by Mr. Rixcs. For from such re flections on the pnrt of the freemen of the county will follow a deep nnd earnest con viction of the necessity of change and reform; gkj-" During Ui Administration of Polk W.wer Involved In war with Meiioo, aud' in the roar years of his term we find the expenditures only $Joo,881,. 024 .68 being an annual avarage expenditure of f 41 .. 8M,260ftu. Now, take tlint holy adminlstratloa of Mr. Fillmore la a time of peaoe and plenty, and what do wt find ?

I ' The above extract is taken from the Fayette villo AWA Carolinian, of tho 7th inst. We beg leave, in tho politest possible way, to say to tho Curolinian, in its own language, that in put ting forth this statemett it lies under mis take ! Now, tho editor of tho abovo named sheet knew, or ought to have, known, that although Mr. l'olk created the war, ho did not pay any of tho debt contracted in consequenco of that war. That responsibility was shoved on to Fillmore's administration, and nobly did ho acquit himself of that responsibility w nobly that even De inocracy itself was constrained to pronounce his administration WaJii'iigtunian t Rut those things are patent to everybody, ami. the Caivliuiau, in giving publicity to such false- lioods, is doing an injury to the cause it would uphold. Indeed, as a general thing, the Demo cratio papers of North .Carolina, by tho course they are pursuing, are cutting their own throats. For tho benefit of tho Carolinian wo publish the following extract from a speech of Hon. Thomas lienton, at Jackson, Missouri, on tho 30th De cember, 1352, which ire consider good Demo cratic authority : '-An 1 here let me Jo'Jiistioe. Party warfare throws thr I lime of tiee $W',(0,(H O on the piexrst Whig (Fillmore's) administration!

Now let us have Buchanan on the stind. In I is annual message of December, ISjS. he says: "The publio expenditure during the I'c.il year en-lii ,iotu June, looH, (unounte.1 to eijrhT-cne mil lion five Ininiircd and eishty tire thousand s x hundred and sixty-seven dollars ami serrnty-six raits, ($81,. -.. i. iu,) of wltcb niue million six hiudred and eiKh.y-four tiious.-ind lire huadred aud tnrty seveii uoiinrs an l miirtr-nine oent- were applied M the iny- lu.-nt of the public debt and the redeiuptiui of Tieas ury doU-s with the interest thereon." Mr. Buchanan, in one of his letters in 18o2, complained that oir Government expenditures were as high as fifty-two millions, and argued that there must be corruption and extiavagance Mr. Ruchnnan knows, and so do these Demo cratic editors know, that nearly the whole of the Mexican war debt was thrown over from Folk's Administration to Fillmore's. The quartermasters'- returns weranot fully in as late as 18.32, and one alone, Colonel Hunt, disbursed over ten mil ii.n? in. money,.aud .had chaiga-of - an orwrmous amount of public property. The demagogues bhut their eyes to all this, and would fain have the people to boas blind as thcoiselvcs. 1 ....
