J -THE GREAT COIUVENTION."
Tbi Convention which met in this place on the
20ih instant may in truth be called "the great
Contention "for in. point of numbers no assem
blaze of the kind ever held in North Carolina can
be compared with it. It looked rather like a pats
meting, to use a Whig phraae, than any thing else.
When at fOVclock tbe Convention waa aurhmoned
to the grove, whertf a atand and acuta had been pre
pared, the crowd was to great, and luch anxiety
wm rrianiTeateCj, to hear the speeches, that it waa
entirely of the question to think ol consuming
time by gmnft through the alow formality or call
ini over the humea antl location of Delegate pres
ent. Ai food a the Convention was organized by
the appointment of the officers and committee,
the speaking began, and waa kept op with a short
luleroal-et noon, duriag the day, and resumed at
night. There were many able and eloquent speech
m delivered and it was cheering to witness the1
.pint in which they were recoived. The speakers;
by'llieir Stirling appeals infused tho fire of patri
otism into the bosoms of their hearers and the
hearers in turn reflected it back on the speakers
by their enthusiastic applause. Although we were
not able to get ths names of all the Delegates, we
hazard nothing in saying that. there a-ere more
than 400, who added to the visitors would swell the
aoemblage o considerably over 2,000 men.
W have not been able lo ascertain all the Counties
represented There wee perhaps sot more than
Mi. .This, however, it is very evident, was not
oing to any want of zeal in tbe Counties from
which no Delegates appeared, but to the hardness of
).c times brought on the country by Whig misrule. ;
I'.ui it matters nothing since wo bavs assurances
from every quarter that the fire of the 20th of Mar, j
173, is blazing forth, n on the 4th of August
wit, the State will be illumined with its glorious
light from the Atlantic shore to the Tennessee line.
. In truth we had a cheering and enthusiastic
t me of it. Nothing marred tho high enjoyment

cnereu nis neaun to unuergn iov imiguv
nUmrnt of such an effort. Tbs aniiety.l the
Convention and the people to sen and hear him
3 very great, and wo have no doubt Mr. Henry
would hav made the attempt but for tho counsel
This physicians and f friends, who seeing his
ndition sbsolutcly interdicted it. Though una
,lc ii 4roru5unco a long speech he appeared in tho
Convention, and took a proper occasion to make a
hart address evjplnijnmfJthii statejr biahealtb,
received with spplsuvo and" as a sutii
cicnt spdfogy' fbf not speaking at length.
Oa'the morning of tho 21st the Convention met
at 9 o'clock. ( After receiving the reports of Com
itiiiees, 'adopting a series of very, bold and strong
Resolutions, and bearing letters from absent friends
nd distinguished members of tho Democratic par
ly read, the speaking eras resumed, and continued
with extraordinary animation, until 1 o'clock. First
one and then another was called op, all generally
responding faS!!Ort bat eloquent speeches which
were most attentively listened to and received with
tnthuwaatie approbation.. Finally the Convention
adjourned a the best possible atate of feeling,
muny with their slock of information enlarged, and
ill ih a fresh and more determined impulse, to
kills without lack of seal or energy in the holy
riuse of equal rights and liberty. ,
Governor Morehead in the Field.
From the accounts in the papers, and what has
come to our ears in other ways, we hava reason to
believe that Ilia Excellency, Governor Morehead,

excite common interest b? his addresses. TKis" is

will attract the eye of the reader and most richly

commend them to the earnest end sober attention

PROMISE toniranlei ttith PRACTICE.
The Promise.
The Federal Whig leaders in 1840 told the
people that Mr. Van Bureo'a administration was
- entirely too outrageously extravagant that 22
millions was greatly too much to be spent in one
-l year, and solemnly plddged themselves that if the
v Whigs were put into power ihey would forthwith
commence a speedy retrenchment, and soon reduce
the expenditures down to the economical standard
of 14 or 15 millions a year. This va$ tie prom,
ite.
The Practice.
Waltei Fobwabd, the Whig Secretary of tbe
Treasury of th United States, in report to Con.
gress of date the Oth instant, estimates that tbe
ordinary expenses of the 'Government for 1842
1843-1944 will be as follows t
' For 1842. VttfiM&S fi5-nesrly 34 millions of dolls.
im. 32.IN8.054 95-more than 32 millions.
1844, . 320i f)9. -
Ti i the fulfillment of Whig promise.
With these lacta before the eyes of tbe country, can
we wonder that 19 out of 20 States bave already
kicked Vhiggery to ths doga'f! Can wewoo
der that the hnoMt (wopU of the land are every
Hr anMiKiag and turning against the de
ceivers! "".
J PREDICTION."
We predict that John Cataline Culhoun will
be nominated for the Presidency by tbe Loco Foco
Convention which moots at Salisbury, this day.
We should like to see the first meeting between
-bim and Mr. As the latter thou)jht all
NufliKW Wars Traitors and deserving of death, he
would wan la Gallows as high as Human prepared
for Mordrca'. for this Prince of Nullifiers."
The above extract is from the leading Federal
journal in the State of the 20th instant. We say
nothing about tht middle name applied to Mr.
, CalholllJLilJ?orthjyo the decepcyj'l party
and particularly of this 1 alitor who has growu ex.
cocdiiig witty of late, though it would take the
acumen of a Whig to discover the wit of this.
As to the " prediction "the result proves that
the Editor of the rteghwf totongt'TO ' the stliool
of "false prophets " for Mr. Calhoun was not
nominated, nor was any thiug of tlie sorj attempted.
It is however true, that nine-tenths nay nine
teen twentieths ot all who were here are decidedly
and strongly in fkvoi of Mr. Calhoun for the next
Presidency ; but Solomon tells us that thero is " a
time for all things," and in our humble view, if
the Federal Wbigs who met in Raleigh on the 4tb
of April bad been Solomons they would not have
done one thing they there did do.
, As the Editor 61 the Register will certainly be
surprised that no nomination was-made, we will, io
ail candor, tell bim the reason why ; it is this,
The Federal Whig Convention of the 4th of April
presented to the Democratic Republicans of North
Carolina several important issues upon which they
wish to conduct the present contest. Among these
issues are, the Distribution Law the Bankrupt
Bill a United Slates Bank a National Debt
extravagant expenditures a Protective Ttiriff
Henry Clay and high taxes. The Republicans
hsve met them on these issues and we do not desire
to mako nny now ones at present. It would in fact
be uncourtfous in tbe Iemocrata when their oppo
nents have designated the points ol contest, to come
forward nnd thrust new ones into tho Scld. It ia
true, we believe that 'Mr. Calhoun's name would
give great strength to cur cause in tho Stuto and
especially in the West, but we aro atrong enough
without this to beat tho Federal Whigs in August,
and then when the proper time comes, wo will beat
Henry Clay the great Hank and TaniT champion,
with Mr. Calhoun or some one eUr. No the
Federal Whigs havo made tho issues, and we in
tend to beat thenron ground of their own cliowing.
Mdrm and Resolutions of the Democralie
Convention.
Tho Address and Rcsolutiona of last week's
Convention will be published as soon as they are
handed over to us by the Committee of Publication.
Our Democratic frieuds iu ihe Counties around
will do well to let us know forthwith whnt number
ol copies they will want respectively, so that we
may provide accordingly, and forward to their
directions. 1
03r The Vglailajiire of Connecticut now in
Scsmon. has resolved to offer its mediation macule
tho difficulties between Ihe two pnrtics in Rhode
Island- i is to bo hoped that body may succeed
in prevailing on the belligerents to lay aside their
blo7dy iiuenls, puFuinbelrfnandswordr and
listen to reason like sensible people aa they ouRht
to be, especially as their dillerence may bo settled
quito at satisfactorily before cutting ona another's
throats, as it possibly could be after performing
that unnecessary operation, and probably with no
less comfort to the subject on both sides. -
Hon. John M, Nitet has been elected bv the
Legislature of Connecticut! United Siatos Senator
from that State for si years from the 4ih of
March next. . , .
OCT Wa ate indebted to Mr. Calhoun of the
Senate, and Messrs. Rencher and Caldwell oT the
UouHe of Representatives for various interesting
docuoients and speeches in the course of the pre
sent session oi Congress.
03" The Editors of the " lliithland Mcucntrrr "
stated after Mr. IlonryV speech at Ashvillo, among
other things, that Mr, II. had made ue of some ex.
prcasionsso indelicate and vulgar as to have driven
the ladies who wore present troro the Iioue, and ths
Editors further " positively refuie" lo invert in their
piper the obnoxious remarks. Tho Federal prints
irom me negisier down to the lowea' in the State,
bave been, raising their " decency rmnde in horror
they are shocked at Mr. Henry's indelicacy, and dyina
wiin curiosity to know what it was he asid. Now it
strikes us that the Messenser has got ioto something
of a quandary about this matter. JS"v"cril gentlemen
ot the Whig partv of high respectability who were
present, say that they not only did not bear ths shock
ing expressions alluded to, but that they did not see i
single lady present at any .time while Mr. Henry was
speaking and Mr. II. himself declares .that he saw no
lady in the-1 loom!. So much for the contradiction.
winch makea it Incumbent on the Editors of tho Mes
senger lo show proof en both counts, as to the ladies
present, sod ss to the expressions used, or stand con.
victed of tbe no very reputable coinage andpropigatiori ot
what might be ailed bjrhsrd name. We pause to
hear from our modest Buncombe errteraswrat iesr
Extract 6fm Letter to the Editor : I
" Mr. UxjibV has done hinwelf no good in tho
Mountains, buton the contrary, barm. His failure
to speak at Bitrke and Rutherford, after making bis
appointment, on the pretoxt ol ill health, when ho
losked as Well as usual, has produced great mur
muring and dissatisfaction. Especially, as hiaj
fusal tu speak; is attributed by most persona to the
fesr of being replied to. My word for it, Henry
will never meet Morehead, if he can avoid it. lie
has no notion of venturing his arguments, where a
reply may bo expected."
Tie foregoing from the Raleigh Register is a
specimen of tbe "extracts of letters" weekly pa-
rsded in tbe columns of that paper. If the Editor
believes them he is as grossly imposed upon and
humbugged as thousands were by the Whig prom
iaes in 1840. His correspondents are nlavinir ihe
Whignms on bim strong. ,Whw lukJ
himself perfectly ridiculous in this part of the Slate.
If the Whiggery were pleased at the " harm" that
Mr. Henry " has done himself in the mountains1
there would be a very comfortable state of general
gratification on all aides at his visit to the West,
for there is no mistake about li e fact that the Dcrn.
ocrats are not only satisfied, but highly gratified at
the impression Mr. Ileory has made every Where,
Thsy will be delighted to have the same .tort of
" harm " done to their cause all over the Slate.
The next sentence in this pretty little " extract"
is fair and decent : " His failure to sjak, on the
pretext of -ill bealih, when he looked as Well as
usual."- Now this is exactly the thins for some of
the dirty sheet's," or for somo of the tools of the
party to circulate, bu, really we thought the Editor
of the Register had more liberality or at least more
Kgardjbj,wmbte
paltry, contemptible insinuation of this sort which
he would be very simple, to believe : "pretext of
ill-health "when tbo Editor cannot but know
from Ihe statement of his own party papers that
Mr. Henry was violently ill at Rutherford, and he
is moreover doubtless aware of that geal'eman'a
physical "inability from a severe injury received
some time ago. Hut the secret is, it seems, he waa
afraid of " being replied to "afraid of getting
"used up" again by lawyer Clingman the young
Buncombe thuiiderer, or by Ihe renowned General
EJney, of course. They arc certainly dangerous
.men such orators and such singe ra. .V , .
This correspondent's" word for i Henry wlil
never meet Morehead, if he can avoid it." We
are afraid not indeed, from tho way bo avoids the
Governor. Mr. Henry made his appointments in the
West, long ago ; Hta Excellency has been in this
part of the State since, returned to Raleigh and was
so anxious to meet our candidate, and so duter
mined Mr. H. shoutd not "aVoW him, that he
nial es hit appointments some three hundred miles
or farther right (IT in ihe .u', while Mr. Ileory
is avoiding him here in the MVsf acvortling to
previous appointments. The Governor timk a wide
circuit to " head " him perhaps eh f Well, Mr.
Henry i gone Wn that way lately to " avoid "
His Excellency, and wo hope the Governor will not
now, conclude to come westward after him, pe
dally as ho has an appointment m FuyHt'-villo
shortly, and it is possible he map catch Mr. Henry
ilw rn if hn keeps a sharp look out.
Thero has been dreadful times in Georgia On
the 2d of May, commenced the week's session of
Sumpter County Superior Court. On that night
did Court House was forcibly entered, and every
paper i" the olRro of the Superior Court Cb.rk
