BUT ONE FACE. Democracy, be it remembered, says the Raleich Standard, ' Aa but oneace and but one platform, and that platform is large enough for all sections and every interest. There will be no blinking nor sliding' in our ranks. Our doctrines and principlesare 'known and read of all men.' We bold them ud nroudlv before all sections, and knowing them to be true and sound, we court tlie fullest investigation of their merits. Thus confabulateth the Standard with its readers quorum parltt tumut and therefore we shall avail ourselves or the invitation sa kindly given, and take i stare at the aceand platform of Democ racy. 1 And the first thing that we haje to remark of tha face ia, that it ap pears to us to be like many other faces that we have teen : its cheeks are evi dently painted for exhibition and if the rouge were (rubbed off we doubt whether it would be much admired, Agaia we retaark if Democracy baa bat aoe tace.it is e, it expert ia facing bout aad exhibiting iu feaf ares ta those behiad. as well as before it.

Bat even, ia North Carolina, it has often looked difereat ways, with rrhat earnestness, within the memory ufmaa. At one time it looked with the atmot benignity en internal improvements, and serioaal arged the State to borrow three millions of dollars for the purpose of bailding; roans tur the convenience of the dear people. Ia a very short time after- wants, wnen twa or three attempted works of internal Improvements had in a great measure miscarried, and tha stibjecthad become anpopglar.thit same Democracy set its face against alt im provements whatever and denounced, the Whigs as the M internal improve meat party."
