This gentleman ia the one whom tbe Opposition at the Convention in Raleigh last week, during the second day's session, elected aa car taadard-bearer for tho Guberna torial honors of the old North State. Mr. Pool is said to be every way Cited for the post ns well as eminently qualified with all that U requisite to secure it. He is some thitty-Gre years of ape, Its been in political life since he reached bis majority, and since which he has bad abundant opportunity to acquiro the necessary experience to conduct a political campaign, lie contributed very cffectiiely by his labors and influcrffo to the election of Hons.

After a session of three whole days, and nearly counties, and the President promises to carry oil qur cotton crop of J 801 nejrt year if our people will have the grading finished by tho time tho Pee Dee Dridge is ready. Only think of that fellow citiaens and -redouble your energies, increase your forces; let some of our strong citi zens tako op the unlet work and rush it through ; it is but a single short strain note arid the trouble is over forever. The signs are certainly brighter fur an early completion of tho woik than any of us hare imagined. The switch from tho main stein will be put in, but a new survey ia first necessary, as the last was not as good as was desired. Tbe Directors wish the best and most satisfactory that can beobtiriired.

He has record, capacity, energy and by the end of the year will probably reach Shelby, - Wilmington, Charlotte and Rutherford Railroad. The President of this Company has been with ns for several day past, and from hi intercourse with oar citiiens, we ire highly pleased to be able to state that the prospects of this heavy enterprise were never brighter than I at present. ' The Company have employed on tbe eastern end quite large force, some engaged in keeping up the road already laid tome in laying track iouie in building trestle ind the largest lore in grading the unbnislicd section Lelow Lumbertont A soon as this latter foiee finishes in Robeson,' it will move op to Richmond and continue its labors until it reaches the Pee Deo. The Company have also as' strong force at the Pee Dee Dridge as can well work on it- The railroad to tako tho rock from the quarries to the bridge site is nearly complete the flats to convey the rock to the piers in the river are nearly ready. The machinery for raising the rock is now on the way, and the whole work will be most expeditious ly done, the state of the water and weather per mitting. A force of one hundred hands will shortly bo put to grading tho heavy sections be tween Charlotte and the Union county line and for the triadinc through Anson and Union ooun- I . t . . .i , aci j, iiiv nKHiT. ion u tniiinifui, auuidticwoi lull ties, reliance IS placed on tho cituons dfTlie twoi,,, .t'theiu, lr the sake of common decency three whole nights, this body adjourned on Sa-Hn the Convention, that Senator Douglas' views turday night, the 18th, and, say the Richmond Whig, no account, however graphic, ean do just ice to such an infernal pow-wow. We have never seen continues the )'h!g not eveu at the fa mous Petersburg Convention such disorder, such tumult, such wild and frantic uproar. No at tempt at description could convey even faint idea of the scene. Not having room for fuller particulars, we give tbe Whig'i retumt of tbe proceedings of the Con vcntion i " 'Measures not men,' la tbe professed motto of the Virginia Democrat, and yet, during tbe entire seuion of the Convention, 'men' were the sole and absorbing topic, while 'measure were not even treated with the cold respect ef a passing notice. Could anything demonstrate more eliarlylhat tbe so-called Demo cratic party is simply and only an 'Imposition' party? for long years past, ami especially lor the last few months, these men have been constantly prating about the rights of the South, and the interest of the South, and the honor of the South, all to be upheld and main tained by tbe Democratic party aloue. And yet Wise and Hunter, and Hunter and Wise, were the only themes which these peculiar frieuda and guardians of tuesjutn seemed to take any pleasure in discoursing npon and upon these themes upon tbe question of mere 'men' they were particularly eloquent, and aery, and nguty, and uproarious. 09 A Mr. R.'R. Collier, a dclognte in tho Virginia Convention, from Petersburg, declarod experience, We place Mr; Pool's name before the "people of Xorl'.i Carolina, fur the Ciuht-rnntorial chair, upon hi'i roundd. We urge hi? claims on account of his .pceuliar fittiem for the position on ac count of his experience, his aliHty, his energy, his recoril unobjectionable alike to Knst and West his great popularity, and the fae ilil'ij with whii-h he makes friends. These are the . . .... . reisons which actuate us iu presenting tinn to the people of North Carolina. - There is no Tlflubr but that .Vrr PouT will ac- I titty four miles from Charlotte. They are ahead of us, there--and why? Because they had fuith in their own energies at the very beginning, and have labored incessantly through a dark night of troubles. Day, a ljng pcrpctutd day, now breaks upon tbeir visions, and they will enjoy in rest the fruits of their labors. Let us, then, though com mencing late, by redoubled energies regain lost time, and like our Western friends sit down under , vui vmm iuv aim u nee. us mi uiiiic, co operate, and path on the good work. rept the nomination, and wc tin's acck place his name at o jr ni.vtlicaj. - The OM'OsrtioN Convention The editor kas not yet arrived home from the Convention, but wc ate asrnired by our exchanges, and dele gates who have arrived, that it was one of the largpsfj-most enthusiastic and powerful in point of talent that ba? ever been held in the State, and although differences of opinion nay hare existed f ' even to tbe extent as some confidently predicted 7 of a "split" in the party all discordant ele ments and jarring opinions were most amicably and harmoniously adjusted. On the Equalization of Taxation question, members of the Convention from different sec tions naturally entertained somewhat different views but for the common caute all these were buried, sod at parting the utmost unanimity and enthusiasm prevailed. East as well as West the cry went np " Hurrah for Pool aud Equal Taxa tion," and with that for. their watchword, the delegates started homeward, not a dkDting voice heard or a countenance seen on which did not . beam the cheerful tokens of hope and victory. The delegation frour Anson were first called upon .in the Convention, owing to their initial position, and they cast their votes the right way every time; and the M'higs of Anson, to con tinue the good woik and ratify the nomination, we are requested to say, will assemble at the 'ourt-House on Tuesday of April Court, at which time, it is utrlerslood, delegates will be appointed - to attend a District Convention at Salisbury, onJ Ink of May, (which all the delegates in the State Convention front -the district decided to call,) fur the purpose of selecting delegates to a National Convention of the National Union party, to be - lield in BaltimoreyTind tonehooseTao " Elector for the district.

Acting on these newspa per reports, the House of Delegates of the Le gislature of Maryland adopted a resolution, re Mediocrity is Office Noaign of the times (says the Xasbvillo Banner) is wore unhealllifuj than the numerous suggestions which one meets ou every hand introducing the name of third fourth and fifth rate men for the first positions in the Republic. Time was when no man's name was ever scriously'considered in connection with the Presidency, who by age and long and illus trious public aervice had not identified himself either with the civil or military history of tbe country. Now obscurity, accident of residence, adventitious circumstances of every variety, and any ingredient which goes to mnke up the sum of Availability, will suffice to . make any irn "prominent" for the nomination of tha0 jj,at convention as the Presidential can jijatC) and probably President of thi' -eat nation A precocious vo--og Congressman, with a sprightly inUViecl, popular address, and voluble ionjrjnd frequently a facile political oonsoienee, nas hardly ventilated his vocabulary in the House of Representatives before the Vice Presidency, at tbe next election, becomes the inevitable dream of his arubitionkand he immediately commences to instigate a bevy of brainless admirers, or a retinue of hungry expectants to push his " claim," for that high distinction. It was not so in the earlier and purer- days. Then it required a long, laborious and useful service as legislator to earn distinction even in that capacity,' and after attaining sac-h a position they were content to serve the country as faith fully as Jacob did Laban for tho hope of higher promotion. It was by such means that the great statesmen who-have been forced into retirement to make place for the Lilliputian politicians of the present day entitled themselves to the grati tude oHhjsjeople, and the honors of the Re public, and rendered themselves .competent to administer the high functions of rulers and law-g'vcra- ..J". ncb schools ;rere trained a Lowndes, the Gilaes, the Masons, and their like.-;- Snd common boner ty, to indulge in no mors disgust' ing humbug aud bnlderduali about the endangered rights and honor of Virginia sad the South, for tbey re nut the men to uphold the one or defend the ether. It is their peculiar prurince, after their recent exhi bition, to s.juubblo only about men and the spoils; and this question of meu is at Inst only a question of the spoils, and this was the animating and eoutroling consideration with the lw& personal factions, wUiclj made np the late so-called Democratic Convention. ' "As to the sentiment of tbe Convention on the ques tion of preference between Iluntof and Wise, a ma jority of the 'sweet oices' ot Uie delegates were de cidedly in furor of the latter, but the Jluntcr men re sorted to parliamentary tactics to defeat an expression of preference for Wise, and were necessarily successful, inasmuch as thirty or forty men ean stave off a vote on any question until doomsday, if they unlirrtaod me tricks an I ruses or, parliamentary law. Jlut this unjust and illiheml conduct on the part of the friends of Hunter will avail tucm nothing in tbe preference of llio masses or tbe irginia Democracy, a large ma jority of whom are evidently in favor of the 'tearless tribune of the pe tpl-,' formerly of tbe classic spot called llnly,' near (lusncock, iu the county of Acco m.ic; and all the devils, big and little, in the Hunter faction, can t take the wind out of bis sails. There is really ho use in these fuctious Hunteritcs kicking agiust the pricks, fir their favorite ia a dead cock in the pit, and it is nut in the power of the Democracy of Essex and Rockbridge combined to restore him to po litical life and health. But we invoke the Wis men tote np and doing in regard to the appointment of gates to the several district conventions, or else the tacticians anu wire-wormrs of tbe Hunter clique will assuredly pack those ConventiCaS, and thereby defeat the, will and wishes of Vu'e masses of the Viigiuia De mocracy. Gentlemen of both factions, we implore and beseech yea to ttan l to your respective colors, and ncv;r give up the ship! , "There was one curious fact connected with the proceedings of the convention jon..
