We have recent intelligence of the most cheer in character from Stanly's District. But little doubt is entertained of his election by either Whisrs or Democrats, notwithstanding the out rageous Gerrymandering, which was resorted to, to defeat him. VVe saw that gallant young champion of. t1 ,. , ...J2, iN&Y XT ash, tne other day, and he is in the finest possible spirits de termined to do his duty, and if practicable, to leave his competitor, Mr. Daniel, at home to enjoy the olium cum digniiate of private life. In our own District, the Whigs are greatly an imated and encouraged by the result of the meet ing at.Fayetteville, and are determined to imi tate the zeal and earnestness of their standard bearer. Mr. Rayner, who has been necessarily detain ed here for some time, leaves the City to-morrow, to enter upon the canvass in his District, and knowing his diligence and ardor in the cause, and his powerful capacity before the people, we have little doubt of his triumphant success. In the first and fourth Districts, the Loco Fo cos have no candidates. In the third District, it is confidently believed that Mitchell (Whig) will be elected. In the second District, where there has been great doubt of Whig success, in consequence of our having two Candidates in the field to one Loco, we are rejoiced to state that a compromise has been effected, which settles the question and ensures a glorious triumph to Republican prin ciples. Messrs. Babeingek and Edney have published Cards, in which they agree to refer their respective claims to a Convention, to be composed of one Delegate from each Captain's Company in the District. Col. B. says in his Card "Id know myself, I am the last man that would intentionally throw any obstacle in the way of the tri umph of our principles. Having been nominated by a most respectable and numerous Convention, 1 was not placed in a position to decline with honor. But concession to the will of the people for the sake of united action, and for principles that are believed to 1 important, involves no dishonor. If the nomina tion heretofore made is not sustained, I shall cheer fully submit and unite cordially in the support of the cause. 1 1 it is confirmed, I shall still continue to maintain with what ability I have, and with an hon est zeul, the principle which we believe essential to , ilie welfare of our common country." Gen. Ehkey says " If I have any one principle more deeply riveted m my heart than another, it is the triumphant success not only of the Whigs of this District, but of this na tion, for the achievement of which, I have heretofore taken an humble part, and shall upon all future occa sions lnd my best assistance. I humbly and earnest ly trust, thai by this concession and mutual adjust ment, of the collision in our ranks, that the Whigs will "Sum reinvigorateu, ana take an active and zealous interest in attending said meetings, and forwarding we glorious causa. "1 am convinced, by a mutual and cordial co-ope-ntion, that iUe Whig Flag will be again unfurled in joe coining contest, and float as proudly upon the breeze as U did in the memorable canvass of 1840 ; and with that lofty spirit which called a Washington JI'U a Hancock together, to consult for the good of ur country, let us all aain mutually tally under our beloved Flag bearing uprislit ils lofty standard, r perisli under its folds." . All that we have to do, to ensure a nrost glo rious victory on the 3d of August, and thereby prove that the victory obtained under Harbison was not caused by a restless desired for change. dui proceeded from a firm conviction that the Lo co Foco policy was destructive of the best inter ests of the countryall, we sav. that we hav to i do, 19 to show the solid phalanx of 1840. The evils, against which we then contended have not been eradicated. We have acntrVd tk- not killed it." We have had open foes and se cret traitors to contend against We have yet to ar against the Office-holders, many of whom, if possible, are more base, servile and detrraded. than were those under Van Buken ; for the first are traitors to their Drineinlea. while th Umt always true to their mistaken views of policy. - (- 1 w (imii w va, t T r njva . j vucii, every ming to encourage us. e have the riirht 0. . n9 the riffht tTin w;k t . . - it jvu uicoci w auaii 00 "vincible, for Jhere. lies a hidden Tl strength in a just cause, 'at nothing can resist." ALL IS NOT GOLD THAT GLISTENS. A few daya since, a Gold Watch, the face of which was, orginally, German Silver, but which through the new Galvanic process, had been neafcJ ly gilded, was exchanged for a good Silver Wehf with $20 to boot, to a travelling Pedlar. Goods purchased of Pedlars are generally imperfect, and cost higher than good articles. There is no ware so deceiving as Jewellery, and persons wanting it, had better always purchase of the regular dealers. TRAVEL. To use a homely phrase, it is cheaper to travel, than to live at home. One can now go from Georgia to Maine for a comparative trifle. We see that Passengers are now conveyed from Bos ton to Portland for $1. People need not live bo ongas our grandfathers did, for we can now travel farther, and do more in one week, than they could in six months. GENERAL APATHY. The total indifference to the political concerns of our Country, shown in the conduct of too many American Citizens at this critical period, which demands the exertions of all, is greatly to deprecated. One would suppose that they do not consider themselves as possessing a common in terest with their countrymen ; but that amid the general wreck, individuals will be able to ride out the storm. This conduct reminds one of the Anecdote of the honest Hibernian, who, in a tem pest at sea, being entreated to lend a helping hand, in working Ship, replied with more dignity than wisdom Arrah, honey ! and what care I for the Ship, who am nothing but a Passenger !" WHERE SHALL I GO! This question, asked by Mr. Webster in his Faneuil Hall speech, appears to become more and more, difficult of solution. Of one thins we are glad, says the " New Bedford Bulletin,' Mr. Webster has gone out of the Cabinet, and so fat, the question is settled satisfactorily. But where is he to go now ! To Boston, for a Din ner and a Speech. But where is he to go then To Bunker Hill for a Procession and an Oration And whither then ? To New Hampshire, bird ios and ruralizing. But where then? Where is finis, the ultimatum, the terminus of Mr. Web aier a wanaennga ; nv. is Uie uueolvea ana insoluble question. AWKWARD. A man has recently returned to Louisville, af ter a twenty years' absence, to findjhat his wife supposing him dead, had married and buried, in the interim, two other husbands, and was jn her mourning weeds waiting for a fourth applicant They were mutually rejoiced to see each other, and forthwith called in the parson to " hitch" them again, which was done in due form. BULLETIN FROM THE WHItS HOUSE. The Madisonian apes the airs of Royalty in this wise : " Mr. and Mrs. Robert Tyler left the city to-day, on a visit to Thos. A. Cooper, Esq.

LOCUSTS. Our exchange papers in various parts of the country, mention the return of the Locusts. They are said to visit lis once in every seventeen years. . These insects are similar in habits and appearance to those so much dreaded by the ancients ; but they are different, inasmuch as in this country, we seldom hear of their causing in jury, or even trouble, while they were always the scourge f oriental countries. The Scriptures describe them as running "like mighty men," and the devastation they produce is referred to by Joel when he says: "A fire devoureth before them, and between them a flame burneth : the land is the garden of Eden before them, and be hind them a desolate wilderness : yea, and noth ing shall escape them !" QUACKERY. A knowledge of Medicine is supposed by those L who patronize Quacks, to come by intuition. The boy who carries his master's medicine to the pa tients, no sooner is emancipated from the shop, than he commences business on his own ac count, thinking like the Parish Clerk, who an nounced his intention to go into orders, that " it is the duly of every one to rise to the top in his profession ?

Mr.,Gales i During the discussion oath 6th instant at Fayetteville, between General Saun-J ders and myself, 1 had occasion to. re view the course of Mr. Calhoun, on the question of the United States Bank, and. stated that he (Mr.' C.) reported to the House of Representatives the Bill for the establishment of the Bank in 1816, which bill met the approbation of Mr. Madison, and as is well known, brought into existence that very institution, the recharter of which was vetoed by President Jackson in 1832, and which, though extinct, still came in for a full share of General Saunders' denunciation. He denied that Mr. CaU houn reported the bilL I had not the Journal with me, and therefore could not support my declara tion by a reference to it omce reaching here, however, 1 have examined the Journal fully, and find, that I was correct in asserting, not only that Mr. Calhoun, who pretends now to have a holy horror of a National Bank, voted for and sup. ported it in 1816, but that he was the very identi cal person who reported the Bill J These are the facts. On the 6th of December 181 5, that part of the President's Message which had refer ence to the Currency, was referred to a special Committee consisting of Mr. Calhoun, of So. Ca Mr. Pleasants and Mr. Tucker of Va., Mr. Hop- kinson of Penn., Mr. Pickering of Mass., Mr. Ro bertson of Lo., and Mr. Macon of N. C. (See 26th page of Jo., II. R. 1815.) On the 136th page of the same Journal, I find the following : u Mr. Calhoun from the Committee on that part of the President's Message which relates to a unitorm iNauonai currency, reported a bill lo incorporate the subscribers to the Bank of ' the United States, which was read the hrst and second times and committed to the Committee 4 of the whole House." This was on the 8th January, 1816, and on the 14th of March thereafter, the question was finally taken on the passage of the bill and carried by a vote of 80 to 71. f See Jo : H. R. page 489.) Mr. Calhoun, Lowndes, King, (now Senator from Ala.) Ingham, Forsyth, St. Geo : Tucker of Va., Edwards, of Warren Co., N. C., Yancey, of Cas well, and a large majority of the Republican Par ty of that day voting for the measure. It passed the Senate by a vote of 22 to 12. Of those who supported the bill in the Senate, seventeen were Republicans and five belonged to the Federal Party ; and of the twelve who opposed it, seven were Federalists and five belonged to the Repub lican School. In the Ho: of Rep. there was majority of 38 or 40 of the Republican Party, who were the advocates of and voted for Mr, Calhoun's bill ! It was also a Southern measure. nearly two to one of the delegation from the South be in? in favor of it -The vote of North Uaroiiuti fiA nd thtee. against the bill. and that of South Carolina was sfirn for, arid bW one against it ! Here perhaps I might stop, these facts being sufficient to falsify the allegation sb frequently made for political effect that a Nation al Bank was and is a Federal measure, and that the Whigs in avowing .the belief that such an institution is necessary to restore prosperity to the country, and furnish a sound and uniform currency, have departed from the principles of the Republican Party ; but I desire to call the attention of the voters of the 5th Congressional District, to the course taken by Mr. Calhoun on the Bank question in 1814. On page 504 of the House Journal of that year is the following : "The Resolution which was reported as an amendment by the Committee of the whole House was again read, viz : Resolved, that it is expe dient to establish a National Bank with branches in the several States." A motion was made by Mr. Stanford, to amend the resolution, by striking out the words, icilh branches in the several States" Decided in the negative, Yeas 14, Nays 138 ; Mr. Calhoun, and the entire South Carolina delegation, together with nearly Ihe whole of the Republican Party, voting in the negative. The question was then taken on the resolution, and it passed, Yeas 93, Nays 54. Mr. Calhoun voted in the affirmative. Again : In 1834, Mr. Calhoun favored the re charter of the Old United States Bank, and de clared in substance that it owed him more than any man living, and that it would not have been chartered in 1816, had it not been for his efforts. In the face of all these facts, of so recent a date, and so well authenticated, Mr. Calhoun is laud ed by his adherents, as having been uniformly op posed to a Bank, and the measure itself isdenounc ed by them, as dangerous to the country, and its liberties, and the Whigs held up as Federalists for advocating it In support of the opinion which they now entertain of the policy, and constitution ality of a Bank, the Whigs have the authority not only of George Washington, who presided over the Convention that framed the Constitution, but of James Madison, James Barbour, Nelson, Giles, Lowndes, Forsyth, Crawford, Gallatin and a host of others, who were high in the confidence of the Republican Party. Add to this the decis ion of the highest Judicial tribunal of the nation, composed of sound Jurists and upright men, as to its constitutionality, and what more does any reasonable man wish 1 In the address put forth by the late South Car olina! Convention nominating Mr Calhoun for the Presidency, it is assigned (amongst others) as a reason why the people should support him, " thai few men have been so efficient in saving the liberties of the country from that most dangerous of all the instruments of Federalism, a United States Bank .'" Astonishing, indeed, is it that such an attempt should be made to deceive the People, not only as to the true character of the Bank question as a measure of public Policy, hut also as regards the part Mr. Catkoun has acted in connection with that question. He supported it in 1814-15-16, denounced Gen. Jackson and his party for their war upon it in 1833, '4, eulo gised it as an efficient regulator of the Exchanges, affording a sound and uniform currency, but is now presented to the American People, as having been heretofore a consistent, and being now, a sincere opponent of a National Bank ! But I trust the people will not suffer themsslves to be deceived by such means. They know too well the political opinions of John C. Calhoun ! They are beginning too to see and feel the dis tressed condition of the country, owing to the want of a sound and uniform currency, and know ing to what our fathers resorted for relief, under similar difficulties, they will ere long I trust, ap ply the true remedy, the establishment of a Nation al Bank, well-checked and properly regulated. I should not have troubled you with this long letter, but I desired to place myself right before the public in relation to Gen. Saunders' denial and I'have been carried farther into the subject than I intended. I am, very respectfully, Your fellow-citizen, HENRY W. MILLER. ' FOURTH OF JULY. At a meeting of the Citizens of Raleigh, held at tfie' Town Hall on Friday afternoon last, to make arrangements for celebrating the ensuing Anniversary of our. National Iadependence, the ntehdant of Police took the Chair, and Maj. L. W Peck was appointed Secretary : On motion, it was Resolted, that the Citizens of Raleigh will cel ebrate the approaching Anniversary of American adependence, and for the purposee of making the necessary arrangements for the due observance of the day, that a Committee of five persons be appointed to confer with oher Committees repre senting the Raleigh Guards, Mechanic's Associa tion and Temperance Society. Cel. John H. Manly, Gen. R. W. Haywood, Major Lewis W. Peck, and P. Busbee and Wil- iam H. Jones, Esquires, were appointed a Com mittee under the Resolution.

Extract of a Letter to the Editor, dated Warren County, June 5. Mr. Gales : I have just received the "Regis ter" of the 30th ult, announcing H. K. Nash. Esq. as a candidate for Congress in this District It gives me pleasure to say, that I have seen a number of Whigs, every one of whom join heart ily in the nomination ; and so far as Warren is able, she will give him an increased vote, receiv ed bv anv Whig for the last ten years. We have, of late, been too indolent but for the fu ture. will redouble our energies to make up for lost time. Mr. Nash, I know well, and he is just the kind of man for the times willing and able to stand up against the odds, without count ing the cost, or taking into consideration the chances of defeat Men of this class are seldom to be met with ; consequently, the more to be re lied upon in a crisis. I am glad to know, that your candidate tor tne same station, henry w Miller, is another such fellow. He deserves great credit for throwing himself in the breach "From the signs of the times, Van Buren is about to be ' snowed under in this State, though in this County, he still has the call' of my old friend of South Carolina We have no good feel ing between the little great men htre, who claim to be the leaders of the two wings of the Loco Family. Thy could not agree upon the nominee for Congress, in their Caucus at April Court By the try I should be pleased if some one would let the public know iiow -Jit? J1niel obtained the nomination. The Vanites don't like'iiJ-Jjut cannot help it They appear, of late, to have lost all the tact for which the adherents of the magi cian, heretofore, have heen remarkable. Should these hasty lines meet the eye of my friend Nash, I take this opportunity to invite him, in be half of the Whigs of this County, to spend as much of his time with us as possible We pro mise him a hearty welcome. " I think a large number of our opponents are quite sick of Jacksonism and all the evils attend ant They begin to want to see the light after being in political darkness for more than fourteen years. Heretofore, many would not hear or read a word from a Whig, because General Colonel and Mr. Such-a-one, told them not who received their cpinions from old Mr. Mekins, who, you are aware, had a good opportunity of judging, as he refused several years before his death, to read the political news of the day. I am much pleased with the 44 Whig Clarion." It is just the thing. Many of our friends have re quested me to write for it I thank you for the Whig Addresses. Please send me another bun dle." y " ' Extract of a Letter to the Editor, dated Caswell County, June 6, 1343. "Col. Mitchell, the Whig Candidate in our District is now in this County and has been for a week or more. Jaaglng from informal ion, great ly to be relied on, he is making the most favorable impressions by his intercourse .with our people. Democracy is not so violent with us as it has been. The course pursued by the last Legisla ture, has, as it is well-calculated to do, produced an impression upon the public mind here, unfa vorable to the party who were in the majority, in that Assembly. " I think the nomination of Col. Mitchell by our menus in this District a very fortunate one. He is a temperate, but firm politician, possessed of superior intelligence, and great amiability of char acter. As a Whig, he is sound to the core, though I confess I feared the contrary, until I saw him, conversed with him, and heard him address the people. In his speech to the people of Rocking, ham, .he declared himself for a National Bank, both upon the grounds of constitutionality and expediency. He is an ardent Clay man, and is in favor of the principle of distributing the proceeds of the Public Lands among the States, though opposed to the policy of making that distribution when the Treasury is in need of the supplies from that source of revenue. Upon the subject of a Tariff, his views are in strict accordance with those of a large majority of the Whig party of the South. In regard to the policy of immediate distribution, I confess I differ with him ; but I can, without hesitation, waive all objection to him on that score. M I am inclined to think he will get more votes in this County, than would have been given to any other man, who could have been brought for ward as a candidate oy tne w nigra, tie has a number of near relatives in this, his native coun ty, who are fondly attached to him, and who have just cause to be proud of his elevated standing. If his own County, Wilkes, will do its duty, his election I think is certain." 44 ONE MAN POSTER." The Whigs of Roxbury, (Mass.) at a late meeting, among other good Resolutions, passed the following : Resolved, That as Marcus Morton has twice come into office by the vote of one man, so now he ought to be tarned out by tbe wliole people, at me man. GuiQuutokiai. Nomination The Whig State Convention of Massachusetts met at Wot cester on Wednesday, and nominated the Hon. John Davis for the Office of Governor. He, how ever, jJeclined. They then, with great unanimi ty, nominated the Hon. George N. Briqgs, of Pittsfield county, for Governor, and the Hon. John Reed, of Yarmouth, for Lieutenant Governor The election takes place in November. WHIG MEETING. At a highly respectable meeting of the Whigs of Franklin, held at the Court House in Louis- burg, on Saturday, the 3d June 1843. On motion, Joel King, Esq. was appointed Chairman and N. B. Massenbvsg, Secretary. At the request of the Chair, the object of the meeting was explained by Mr. Thos. K. Thomas, in a few concise and pertinent rematka, after which, on motion, a Committee of five was ap pointed to report Resolutions expressive of the sense of this meeting. Whereupon, Paniel S. Hill, Isaac IL Davis, Major Joseph Sims, Benj. Foster and Thomas J. Blacknall, were appoint ed the Committee, who, after retiring for a short time, reported through Daniel S. Hill, the follow ing Resolutions, viz : Whereas, we have received a communication rotn our Whig brethren in Orange, informing us of the nomination of Henry K. Nash. Esq. as the Whig candidate for Congress in this Dis trict ana 01 nis acceptance of tbe nomination, provided the Whigs of the other Counties com posing this District concur therein Resolved, therefore, by the Whigs of Franklin,that we having the utmost confidence in the ability and energy of Henry K. Nash, and in his sound Whig principles, unanimously second his nomination and recommend him to the voters of this County as worthy their confidence and support Kesoived, 1 hat we again express our abhor rence and indignation, at the manner in which the Congressional Districts in this State have been Gerrymandered by the majority of the last Legislature an act anti-Republican in its char acter, revolutionary in its tendency, subversive of the rights of the people, and well calculated to bring a stigma and reproach upon the character for fairness and justice, which our good old North state nas nitnerto uniformly maintained. Which were unanimously adopted. On motion of Nathaniel R. Tunstall, it was Resolved, that a Committee of five be appointed to inform Mr. Nash of the unanimous concurrence of the Whigs of Franklin in his nomination, and to request him to visit us during our next Court week and address the people. Under which Resolutions, the following gentle men were appointed, viz : Nathaniel R. Tunstall, Daniel H. Hill, Nicholas B. Massenburg, Thos. K. Thomas and Benj. F. Foster. On motion it was Resolved, that we forthwith organize a Whig Central Committee for the County to consist of VZ persons, any six of whom shall constitute quorum ; and that the Central Committee appoint Committees of Vigilance and Correspondence in all the Captains' Districts in the County. The following gentlemen were appointed the Central Committee, viz : N. B. Massenburg, Joel King, N. R. Tunstall. Daniel S. Hill. Richard Noble, Jos. Sims, P. Foster, Jos. Murphrey, J no. E. Thomas, Jos. A. Whi taker, Benj. F. Foster and Marcellus Williams. On motion, it was Resolved, that the proceedings of this meeting be signed by the Chairman and Secretary, and sent to the Raleigh Register for insertion, with a request that the Star and Clarion, and the 'Whig papers in this District be requested to publish JOEL KING, CVm'n. N. B. Massenbxtrg, S& SHERIFF'S SALES. If such facts as the following, do not awaken our people to the importance of advertising Sales by the Sheriff, and Public Sales of any kind, then argument is useless, and Shylocks may thrive ; while he, who has labored and toiled for years to make himself and family a home, mu6t look with out remedy to4he witnessing of deeds for pro perty worth $6,000, conveyed away for two hun dred dollars ! From the Natchitoches Herald. SHERIFFS SALES. Mr. Editor: It you will allow an old Subscri ber to occupy a place in yeur columns, on the subject of advertising Sheriffs Sales, you will not only confer a favor on him, but on the com munity at large. I am, sir, in favor of our Re presentatives repealing that odious and abomina ble law, which says, that after the goods and chattels of unfortunate debtors shall have been seized by the Sheriff, they shall be disposed of in tne darK, without making hve citizens in the Parish acquainted with the sale. Sir, I speak as one of these unfortunate men, who, during the past year have had their houses and home sold off by their creditors. I have a right to speak, and an equal right to be heard. Look over the books of your Sheriff, for the past year, and you will hnd there a tale, shameful to your legislators. You will find there, sir, the sale of ray Plantation of 650 arpents, for a little over $200 which coat me $6,000. At that sale, sir,' there were only two bids, and this iihong a white population of 7,000 people. Since that sale, which has thrown to the winds the labor and toil of years, I have been told by several citizens, who at the time would have bid as high as three thousand, that they knew nothing about the sale. And as a fur ther assurance of this fact I can assert positive ly.thatthebuyeratthe SheriffSale, who paid a lit tle over $200 for my land, has since been offered $3,000 by some of these individuals. Let any man of the least degree of human feeling esti mate the Dainfulness of mv unhannv lot and I 1 f I A J feel satisfied he will condemn the dark and steal thy manner of disposing of poor debtors property at Sheriff sale. In conclusion, Mr. Editor, let me beg of you to urge this matter on the atten tion of the legislature. With much respect &c UNFORTUNATE DEBTOR. In Hillsboro', Mr. Daniel D.
