In this State, the Election took place on Moa-1

election contianing for three days) in a number of
counties. We can only announce as certain the
election df JohV .WI&ite Wblcl . to represent
1 the Sixth district in Congress, without opposU

. . . . ; THE .ELECTIONS.
The retnrns" recerved from Tenjcessk, war
rant us to believe fhal the good cause is in the
ascendant, in that powerful State. Should this
prove teite so, it -will insure the election of two
Whig U. 3. Senators, and give our party the ma-
jority in that body. The great issue made in
Tennessee was Hekkit Clay and his Principles.
Allthe Whig candidates avowed themselves to
be "H favor of the Great American Statesman for
the Presidency; and-the Whig Victory will prove
the . forerunner of a yet more glorious triumph
in 1844.. Lj-
The'!Na6h,aie Banner ex of the 5th, gives
a long list of returns, which it prefaces thus :
u The returns so far warrant us in the expres
sion of the confident belief that Governor Jones
i re-elected-by a considerably increased majority.
Several of the counties mentioned in the subjoin
ed list were regarded as the strong holds of Loco-
focoism."

It hos one thing: That Governof Morehead waa

Gov. Morehead which is outrageously, unjust to
his course and character. In these days of crinsr-
iog and venality amon public men, if there is an
independent politician, and a man of stern politi
cal integrity, Mr. M. is that man ; this cannot be.
denied, whatever objections beside may be fan

his vote with a minority of only nine in the As

old Hero, when in the height of his fame and
power. But eventually boih trentlemen found
themselves on the same ground, opposed to inor
dinate Executive power and a state of corruption
which their -souls abhorred : the Whig standard
was placed in More head's powerful hands, when
Mr. Mendenhall became his steadfast political as
well as personal friend, and has exerted for him
an influence more thorough than perhaps that of
any other-individual in this part of the State. He

THE ELECTION.
The " glorious and untemned democracy in
this district are triumphant Stanly the gallant '
and talented Stanly its beaten, and this district j
must he misrepresented in Congress for the next
two years ; for that Arrmgton possesses not one
.'mole otialifiealion for the nost to which ' ha Ytnn
been elevated, is conceded even by the dernccrafs
o t 1
themselves. to We are not voting for Arrington
they said in Edgecombe and Nash--but against
Stanly."
It Is an old saying thai Falsehood wiB travel a
thousand miles, while .Trvlh: is putting on bis
boots. And the correctness of Ibis ashorism has
been demonstrated by the result of this election.
Mr. Stanly has been beaten by the falsehoods con-
cerning him that have been scattered,4 broad
cast over the district, and Which Truth, slower,
in his motions, has not had time to overtake and
correct
Never before, - we believe,- has -so much' foul i
pky been used in any election campaign, as in the
one we have just passed through: In Nash and
Edgecombe the Locofoco wheel horses would not
let the people hear the truth as witness the
scenes at Stantonsburg and at Stanhope. Some
of the other vile means resorted to,' to defeat Mr.
Stanly's election, we have heretofore noticed.
Others we shall expose hereafter, as a warning
tn the rwnnlA not to hp ao-ain deceived.
The ratH, JKwever, which poured down in aW"e 8U,r eF p"
most ceaseless torrents duringthe day of election,'
contrrbnted largely to our defeat, in keeping frbm

secoudly, that for ourselves we are not vastly
disappointed at the result v is true we are
tnortifiet-et the loss of Stanly, 'the gallant
Stanlyi ast the Whig press style hirrlr, from
the councils of the nation.. We arc cha
grined too at the fact, that owing to" unto
ward circumstances, the whole Whig strength
was not brought up in thetontest. For while
we contributed our mite to secure his elec-
tion, while we kept our banner to the breeze,
and eiulearoured to cheer en the Whigs, we.
nevertheless had oitr fears from the first;
And why ? Not because we did not believe
that even here, in a district cut and carved
by Locofocoism, that the numerical streegth
wa3 with the Whigs; but because we feared
it would not be brought out: it never has
been brought out any where, we believe
since 1840. Many of our eitizens and
those the most substantial are not warm
-party politicians : these are generally Whigs,
and only put forth . their strength on very
important occasioi-s. We knew too of the
deep and settled opposition of Mr. .Stanly ;
that h hnd nrnonk! iho Vmnf. K I. a
is "XJns
of tneir
clear and somewhat tart exposure
mal.adtmmstraiion of the government when
in power, and the injurious tendency of their
measures; that he had especially roused the
retaliating and stern opposition of Edge,
combe and Nash ; and we knew what they
could da, antf we were satisfied they would
leave nothing undone in order to crush him.
For these reasons we say we were not with-,
out apprehension as to the result. But we
were not without hope, thai his command
ing talents; his unquenchable zeal in what
he regards the cause of his country! his
devotion to the best interests of the district;
and hisdiligeut alletiti-on to business, would
call out even such of the Whigs as are or
dinarily indifferent, ajid that portion of the
Democrats that have more concern "for the
welfare of the country, than the mete ad
vancement of their party interests. In this,,
however, we were mistaken: many of the
Whigs did not go to the polls, either on ac
count of 1 he inclemency of the weather, ot
Df their strong conviction that in a
j ,.6 . , v . .
Conte!1 orcd U.Pon them.bJ 1,16 unfair deal-
ingf the Legislature, there was no chance
of success. "For this they are blameable.
The casespecially called upon them to bat
tle with the opposition. Nothing should
have kept them from the polls. Mr. Stanly
was greatly needed In the next Congress to
aid in checking thefdominant spirit of the
Democracy, flushed with their late victories;
to stand forth, cry aloud, and spare not, at
any infringwent upon the Constitution, that
may be attempted to be made by them ; to

of interment of this gallantsoldier of the Revolu
tion. They had no difficulty in doing eo. In the
burial ground attached to the Methodist meeting
house, about half a mile above "Kulpsville, in
Towemensing township, Montgomery county,
there are four graves, (three in gootf preserva
tion,) with head and foot stones, placed there by
the neighborsiby whom the traditienW the placei
is affectionately cherished. Thd largest and most
northwardly grave is" that of General Nash ; the
others are those of Major White, of New Jersey '
an aid of General Scllivan, Colonel Boyd, and
the other is iwknowri. They were alf Officers of
ranx; who died of wounds received atj German
town. There are yet Irving more than one with
whonf weonversed who distinctly recollect Gen
eral Nash's funeralj and are positive as to his
5rave- 4 T
The burial ground is entirely seclnded, though
quite accessible, at the distance of about twenty
four miles from Philadelphia, and a spot of as much
picturesque beauty as can be found in that neigh
borhood, i - . , .
The object of this communication is respectful
ly to call the attention of North Carolina to the
almost forgotten, burial place of her heroic son.
The resolution of Congress, passed when grati
tude was fresh and active, has never been acted
on. And how could it more appropriately fee car
ried into eflect than through the activity and
liberality of ftorth Carolinians, 'to huild. an ap
pnopriate monument on the spot' where almost
within sound . of ; the battle where : his mortal
wounds were received, the soldier of, the Revolu
tion lies! . .r"
It is not beleired the neighbors will consent
to part -frith 'these remains. rTh jutere&t theyt
plain Germ partners of another generation,
seemed to take in' them, was oae. xf the most
agreeable exhibitions which our inquirers 'ob
served. ' .v .
The name of the writer of thirccrofauWcaion,
one of the gentlemen who made the examination,
is left with the Editors 6f the Intejlrgehcer; ' It i
hoped this appeal will not be mvaku lU"! madVt
ta the surviving, relatives of General Nash, and
if to those it fails, then to his native State. .
OLD MORTALITY.
NOTE, BY THE EDITORS. X
In a private letter to his brother. General
WashIkotoh, rpeakinsr of the action at Get&iah-
town, observes, 44 Our loss in killed arid founded
was about one thousand men. General Nash,
of North CaxplinaV was wounded, taid died two or
4 three days after. Many valuable officers of ours
4 were also wounded, and some killed. . jm a word,
4 it was a bloody da. Would to Heaven I cduld
4 add it had been 'a more fortunate oae., bth
vol. Sparks' s Washi ngton 103.
General Sullivan, in his letter to the Presi
dent of New Hampshire, (same vol. 466) s'ays
" w.e lost some valuable omcers, amoncr whom
was the brave General Nash, and my two aids
4 de-camp, Majors Sheebukne and White, whose
