OUR OWN CANDIDATE-; ahnTA. th character of the candid ly e ' GoTerBOr North Caro etes of oar opponent, for W0' ,f . Qf., J Una, and for the Presidency w c w--We will now proceed to place in ;f yniUhe Whig Candidates for those two high and Important offices! v Chasms Maklt is well and favorably known throughout the length tnd breadth of North Caro lina, as a teorltng man. He has never held any sin pcare offices of emolument. WheneTer he has held office he has had to render services adequately e quiralent to his pay. He is emphatically a man of the People. He is a self-made man. Dependent upon the People for a support at his profession, he has mingled with them and fully understands their wants and Wishes. He is no new convert to popular schemes but Is an old, well-tried Republican, of slain, unostentatious demeanor, of unimpeachable rTrty nd of sterling virtues. The breath of malice cannot sully his irreproachable fame. With the Constitution for his guide, he goes heart and hand in sustaining the hitherto proudly won fame of glorious old North Carolina. He stirs up no feelings of enmity to that sacred instrument which he will hare to swear to support, if he be elected the Chief Magistrate of the State. His interests, his hopes, his all, are identified wjth her prosperity and adTancement, and to the promotion of them will his vbole energies be applied, whether in public or in private life. Such a man is Charles Manly choose ye between him and David S. Reid. Of Zachait Taylos, the Whig candidate for President, naught can be said, naught dare be said, that is not noble, exalted, praise-worthy. Unlike Gen. Cass, he has nefer been found at the foot of power, vilely seeking favor. In his own emphatic language he " asks no favors, aBd shrinks from no responsibility I" Spoken like an honest, bold and independent man, as he is. He is no equirocator ei ther of the rights of the South or of the North. He carries his heart in his hand. The thunder of ar tillery, nor the clash of arms, nor the tumult of strife, erer create " so much noise and confusion" but what his sentiments can be heard. In whateTer emergency or situation his country calls for his sc-r-Tices, he has always been found there, nobly doing his whole duty as a man and as a soldier. Honesty is his came Integrity his motto, and Dttty his watch" ord. He has probably nerer seen a Vice King or President, and knows nothing about bowing before the royal robe and regal sceptre. He is plain old 7. ack Taylor honest and incorruptible the man vhom the People delight to honor ! Such is Zch ary Tyloe, and no man who believes in our pure Republican Government, can doubt for a moment that the People will justly appreciate and reward his meritorious deeds. MR. MANLVS PROGRESS. Our accounts from the West, represent the Whig candidate for Governor as even excelling himself in that fine healthy region. A letter just to hand, from a gentleman competent to judge, and who has heard Messrs. Manly and Rtru in several Counties, con tains the following : u Our friend Manly stands the fatigues of the cam p ngn much better thaa I expected. So far as I hare hearl him, he has sustained himself most admirably, in every instance proving himself greatly an over match for his opponent, and winning golden opinions from his friends, and even from his political enemies. A prominent Democrat of this County declared the other day, after hearing Mr. M., that he considered him superior, as a popular speaker, to either Gra ham or Morebead. In fact, no man could occupy -his present position with more success, or give more general satisfaction to his friend, than he does. His coarse is so conciliatory, so fair and just to his polit ical opponents, yet so firm and decided in his own political principles, that all parties are pleased with him. He offends no one, even the most fastidious, whilst he fastens the affections of his friends to his person and principles as with hooks of steel. No man could have been selected of our party who would Ime proved a more worthy and successful leader; and unless I am greatly mistaken in the signs of the times, you will hear the Whig thunder of the West boomiug over your Eastern plains in August next, striking political terror and dismay into the ranks of onr opponents, and convincing them that new is sues, got up on the eve of an election, mere ad eap tanAvms, won't catch our Western Whigs. So far as I know or have heard, the new issue pre sented by CoL Reid has had no effect among the Whigs ; while, on the contrary, many of his Demo cratic friends repudiate it. Although they may not Tote against him on that account, yet 1 am persuaded that the intelligent and thinking men of his own party disapprove the principle." The last Asheville "Messenger," contains the fol lowing: Our paper is ready to go to press, and we have hardly room to notice the discussion which took, place between the two Candidates for Governor, at this place, on the 4th of July. They spoke from 1 till 7 o'clock, P. M? and were attentively listened to, during that time, by a very large and intelligent number of the people of this and the other adjoining counties. Of themerits of the two speakers, we do pot (nor do we suppose any candid man can) hesi itate to gite the decided preference to Mr. Manly. In fact he is one of the best popular speakers we ev er listened to, and it has been our good fortune, to hear some of the best stump speakers in the country. Chaste and elegant in his language, he intermingles with sound and lucid arguments numerous well told and appropriate anecdotes and illustrations, the tell ing effect of which, nobody" who has once heard him can forget His opponent is remarkably gentlemanly, and courteous in his conduct of the canvass, and though mnrutely inferior to Mr. Mauly as a speaker, man ages a bad cause with considerable tact Mr. Manly has surpassed even the hizh exDecta- - tions of his friends in this quarter, and the reputa . tion which preceded his coming among us was in- vreasca Dy Lis very happy effort on the 4 th.

Andrew Stewart, of Pennsylvania, recently made another of his effective speeches, in the House of Representatives, in the course of which he fired a succession of shots into the Locofoco camp, which produced the greatest confusion and dismay among the enemy. He dwelt upon a varie ty of subjects, connected with the general politics of the country and the Presidential question, and the inflictions he visited upon General Cass, President Polk, and the Locofoco party in general, cannot fail to be long remembered and felt. Among other things Mr. Stewart charged Mr Cass with intro ducing and passing, during the present Session, a bill to take from the Volunteers, after they had gone to Mexico, more than one-third of the amount allow ed them for clothing. Here is tho Act, word for word, as reported and parsed : A bill to provide clothing for Volunteers in the ser vice or the United States. Be it enacted by the Senate and House ef Represen tatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That in lien of the money, which under existing laws, is allowed to volunteers as a commu tation for clothing, the President be, and he is here by, authorised to cause the volunteers to be fur? nished with clothing in kind, at the samo rates, ac cording to grades, as is provided for the troops of the regular army. Can anything be plainer than this? The Presi dent is authorised and directed to cause the volun teers to be supplied with the same clothing as regu- ars, in lieu of the amount of money previously sl owed them, vix : $3,50 per month. Now the aver age value of the clothing of regulars was but $2,35 per month,, as stated by the Adjutant-General, and 'or infantry but $1,91. But it is now pretended that the bill gives the Volunteers the option to take the money or clothing. Can any thing be more ab surd 1 If this was intended by Gen. Cass, why did he not say so in his bill ? Why not say that the volunteers might draw their clothing from the pub lic stores, at the same price as the regulars, and then that it should be deducted from the $3,50 per month, and not as the bill says, in lieu of the $3,50 in mon ey 7 This would have been honest and fair. But, no ! they were bound to take the clothing in lien of the pay. But to say that, after the indignant volun teers had hung and burnt General Cass in effigy, the construction of the law was altered, won't do. t only shows that Gen. Cass's law was so bad, so unjust, that they dare not execute it that being a palpable violation of an executed contract, it was unconstitutional and void, and could not dare not, be enforced. If Gen. Cass could take a part, he could take the whole, the principle was precisely the same. Gen. Cass can charge and receive while living at Detroit, in luxury and ease, $30 per day of the peo ple's money, and Test it in public lands, in that town and its vicinity, now constituting a princely fortune but does not hesitate to take from the brave, poor Volunteers, part of their pittance of $3,50 per month or clothing not so much as wonld pay for a hat or pair of boots. What will the Volunteers, what will the friends of the volunteers, the honest and patriotic people, say to this? We will see in November next Could Old Zacr have acted thus ? No, never ! He would rather give the volunteer his own hat and shoes, than take a cent from him. Here is the law, it speaks for itself it is too plain for any ingen uity to explain it away. To say it was not enforced only make the matter worse. It admits its injustice and unconstitutionality. Mr. Stewart deserves well of his country, of eve ry honest man, for having thus exposed this bare faced robbery of the public treasury, and this scan dalous attempt to rob the Volunteers, and their fam ilies of the pittance allowed for the perils, dangers and sacrifices they encountered for their country, in a foreign acd inhospitable clime. Is such a man fit for the chief Magistracy of this nation ? We say no, and we expect to hear the ma jority of nearly three millions of voters, when the question, is he worthy 7 shall be put to them, re ply in a voice whose united volumn shall drown the loudest thunder that ever burst from the skies 1 n o LAYING OF THE CORNER STONE, Or the National Monument or Washington.

MANLY,- AT. VILKESBORO To tbs Emtov of , tbs RtaxsTts : Knowing that you feel a deep interest in common with the whole Whig party of the8tatein the progress of the present political campaign for the Gubernatorial Chair and the success of our gallant Whig leader, I propose to give yon a hasty sketch of several 'dis- cussions between the two rival candidates, which it nas oeen my gooa rortnne to hear in some of the western Counties. -' HsBneninz to be at WnirMham on th ap pointed for the discussion at that place, I there had the pleasure for the first time of heating Mr. Man ly, of whose reputation as a popular debater, 1 had previously heard much through the medium of the newsnaners. The dav was fine, and at an early hour, that gftlla'rit old Whig County poured in her hundreds of the bone and sinew of the county, ea ger and anxious to bear the strains or truth and eloquence from the lips of the noble standard-bearer of their party nor were they disappointed for bravely did he perform, his duty. It was Mr. Man ly's day to lead in the discussion, and there being a goodly number of highly respectable and intelligent ladies present, Mr. M. opened with a beautiful and eloquent sulogium on the virtues and influence of the sex, after which he proceeded in a masterly manner to review the course of tbe present Admin istration of the General Government, particularly in reference to the War with Mexico the Sub Treasury humbug and other subjects of national importance, while those matters of State policy which have been brought into the discussion were not forgotten. The unconstitutionality and utter want of neces sity of the Mexican War were clearly shown the vast national debt, not less probably than $150,000, 000 which has been incurred, at the same time tbe party in power were cutting down the Tariff which afforded the only means (except direct taxation,) of paying bis debt the great amount or numan sui fering which has been endured the loss of life ei ther in battle or by the diseases of the climate of some 20 or 25,000 of those gallant spirits who vol unteered their services in the cause of their country, many of whom acted upon the patriotic principle of defending their couutry, right or wrong, and the flagrant injustice perpetrated by tho Administra tion towards that noble old htro Gen. Zacbary Tay lor, were all pourtrayed in strains of glowing truth and burning eloquence. The new issue of pretended equal suffrage and equal political rights brought forward by Col. Reid, and in the aspect presented by biro, was shown by Mr. M. to be so unequal and unjust as to be posi tively absurd, if not ridiculous so much so, that even some of CoL ReiJ's Democratic friends charac terized it as a mere fanciful idea. While Mr. M. professed the most profound reverence for our glori ous Constitution, the best perhaps in the United States for the security of life, liberty and property, and the guarantees of civil and political rights, a constitution framed by the ablest and purest men of all parties, he nevertheless felt himself bound to yield his assent, and aid in its amendment whenever it could be shown that it contained radical defects, or whenever it failed to answer the great purposes for which it was established. As yetj however, he had heard of no complainfl against it no grievances under it bat said bf I complaints shall be made, and there shall be fdwl grievances to exist, let all parties, Whig and Democrat unite. together and by the instrumentality of the ablest men and purest patriots of all parties remedy those defects and redress those grievances' in a sober and deliberative manner, divested of all party feeling and free from all party excitement. You will doubtless recollect that Col. Reid's proposition is simply to amend the Constitution so that all thoe who are now entitled to vote for a member of the House of Commons shall also vote for a member of the Senate. He repudi ates all idea of abolishing tbe present basis of rep resentation in the Senate, to wit, taxation or the property qualification required for members of both Houses, but at the 6ame time professes to be the great advocate of equal rights. Now let us see how this scheme would work, and how near it would come towards making all men equal. The County of Hertford, for instance, on account of its taxation, forms a Senatorial District, and sends one Senator to the Legislature. This County at the last Gu bernatorial election gave, all told, 560 votes. Tbe Counties of Wilkes, Caldwell, Burke and McDow ell form one Senatorial District, and send one Sen ator to the Legislature. These Counties gave at the last election for Governor, 3873 votes. So J hat if Col. Reid's scheme be adopted for making men e quaL he would make one man in Hertford equal to nearly seven in Wilkes, Caldwell, Burke and Mc Dowell. And by the same vote of equality he would make one man in Warren equal to nea rly five, and one in Nash equal to four and a half of those in the" Counties before mentioned. This would be equali ty wi th a vengeariWjp CoL R. will hardly get the mountain boys toTTgree to this, at least in a physical point of view. Various other subjects of less importance were introduced by both gentlemen into the discussion of which I have not time to speak. 1 he debate conti nued for at least six hours, and through the whole period the audience was attentive and respectful The Whigs of course highly delighted with their champion, and many of them while pronouncing him fully equal as a popular debater to Gov. Graham or Ex-Governor Morebead, would enquire if we had any more of the same sort left. From Wilkes, Messrs. Manly and Reid proceed ed in the order of their appointments, to Caldwell, Burke and McDowell, in all of which Counties I had the pleasure of hearing them, but as the discus sion in all these Counties was necessarily of the same general topics, and the points st issue presen ted in the same general aspect, it would be tedious to particularize. It is due to both parties to say, that the discus sion in all these Counties was conducted in a spirit of fairness, with becoming dignity and respect, and avoiding all personalities as well as bitter denuncia tions of either individuals or parties. This isosit should be. and in all future contests for the same high distinction, the example of these gentlemen will be well worthy of imitation. Justice to Col. Reid and a disposition for fair dealing, requires me to say that he maintained his positions with a respectable ability, and considering that it must be an uphill business to defend the ad ministration for its course towards Mexico, and es pecially towards Gen.Taylor, in attempting to throw unon him the responsibility of bringing on hostilities, his political friends have no reason to complain of . .... i i . the manner in which be discharges nis auiies. In conclusion, Mr. Editor, permit me to express the opinion, founded as I think on reliable informa tion, that the great and glorious Western Reserve will be found on the day of election, as heretofore, to use a cant phrase, rctde arcake and duly sober, ana that both in Auzustand November, it will be found as firm to its principles and as impregnable to as saults, under the gallant lead of Manly andTaylor,as were the eallant and victorious troops of the former under his lead on the ever memorable battle field of Buena Vista.

Ms. Editor '.While passing through Oxford, on my way to a summer resort in the eastern portion of lois otace, i was prevailed upon by many or lis nos pitable inhabitantants to spend the ensuing day, and partake of some of the festivities and enjoyments that were to take place upon the celebration of the 4th of July. " , Early upon the ensuing morning, I was aroused by the ringing of Church bells, and the discharge of volley after volley of musketry in commemoration of the glorious occasion. I found business, animosities, and the cares of secular duties, all laid aside, by rea son of the holiness of the day ; soul was commingled with soul, and worldy anxieties forgotten in the rev elry of delight About 10 o'clock the procession was formed by the Marshal, CoL Richard Taylor, and preceded by Mr. Hargrave's band of music, .began to move down Raleigh street to the Baptist Church. I joined in the procession. And as I approached, I found the Church nearly filled with the bright faces of the la dles with which portion ofjts population, Oxford can challenge a cdiriparison with any village of the South. ... . , The exercises were commenced by an appropriate prayer from the Rev. Mr. Devons, and after ah, in terlude, tbe Declaration of Independence was read by Dr. Henry Herndon Washington's Farewell Address, that chaste and elegant legacy, of a patri otic sire, was read by the Hon. R. B. Gilliam. The Orator of the day, Mr. Wm..R. Wiggins, a gradu ate of Washington College, Pa, then came forward, and with a graceful and easy manner, chained to him his audience for about half dri Hour, with a beautiful, chaste, and highly interesting oration. He was peculiarly happy in the selection of his top ic?, and the manner in which he treated, and link ed them together with rhetorical booqaets He was frequently cheered by the enthusiastic pUudits of his audience. After the delivery, of the oration, I repaired to the Union Hotel, where my host Col. W. W.Young, had prepared for the occasion,. a festal board filled with the delicacies of the season, and the costliest wines that could be obtained; and to hia hospitality I recommend the wearied traveller. A fter spending a pleasant day, I left Oxford highly pleased with the celebration, and the kindness of the inhabitants and almost persuaded to return and spend there a portion of the Summer season.

Yes, take it, and nurse it for me, So innocent, fragile and fair, There's nought can avail for its nurture But a mother's affectionate care. Yes, take it in all its fresh beauty, With eyes of so lovely a hue; O, what upon earth so enchanting To you, as their delicate blue? Its gentle, young face is unsullied By traces of sorrow or sin ; The light which beams from it betokens, The peace of the spirit within. Its smiles, like tbe beam of the morning, Can chase the dull shadows away, While the ocean of love in thy bosom Grows bright 'neath the beautiful ray. its first lisping words will enchant thee, Its first tottering steps will delight, And numberless charms still be springing, Like flowers, to gladden thy sight.

The "Union" con- tains the ratified treaty Which was signed by the President on the 4th of July. It has not been al tered since it passed the Senate. The twelfth article states the "consideration " which the United States' will pay for this exten sion of territory. Tbe money to be paid is fifteen million of dollars ; three million of which is to be paid to Mexico on her ratifying the treaty, and the remaining twelve million to be paid in four annual instalments of three million each, with in terest at six per cent. The United States, more over, agrees to assume all the claims, of every kind, against Mexico by our citizens, on the day of the signing of the treaty. Dead. Rev. Thos. Goulding, DD the vene rable pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Colum bus, Georgia, died very suddenly on the evening the 21st of June, in his 62nd year. He officiated as usual on that evening-at his Church, and on his return home was seized with a spasmodic affec tion of the heart, to which he had long been sub ject, and in less than one hour after his voice had been heard in the sanctuary, it was stilled and cold in death. Adjacent to the spot where the corner stone of tbe monument was laid in the city of Washington on Tuesday last, was erected an arch handsome ly embelished. The National Intelligencer says : But its most interesting and attractive orna ment was a living American Eagle, with its dark plumage, piercing eye, and snowy head and tail. who seemed to look; with anxious gaze, on toe unwonted spectacle below. This, we understand is the same eagle which. in Alexandria, surmoun ted the arch of welcome there erected to Lafay- ette ; and to complete us nonors and its public character, it has since been entrusted to M Vat- tern a re to be presented to the National Museum in Paris. He is now forty years old, but is suffi ciently vigorous to warrant the idea that the Ea gle lives a centuryi Vaic BorwTs Nomination. The following papers in the State of New York have substituted tbe name of Van Buren for that of Cass, at the top of their editorial columns : The Democratic if niont Jefferson county, tbe Folton County Demo crat, tho Palmyra Courier, and tbe Easton State Journal. The following papers in Massachusetts hare done the same : The Norfolk County Dem ocrat, and the Bristol County Democrat.

Fowle, Dear Sir : I have been induced at the sugges tion of many of my friends, to make known to the public through you, the great benefit, 1 have deriv ed from the use of the medicine called M WJSTARS BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY," in the hope that others suffering from lung complaints mav find the same lenef by its use that 1 nave done. The latter part of last summer, and in tbe fall, I suffered greatly from a severe cough, pain ' in the side, difficulty of breathing, less of appetite, and oth er svmntoms which indicated a rapid decline. Three of the most learned and intelligent medical practition ers pronounced my case consumption, and stated to me that nothing but a change of climate' could be of the least benefit tome, as my lungs were in a very inflamed and diseased state. . At this time, in hopes I might find a temporary relief for my cough, I bought a bottle of the Balsam, which not only gave me the relief that ray failing strength required, but seemed to give me new life and energy. . After taking several botUes of tbe medicine, my appetite returned, with it my strength ; my cold en tirely left meas also the night sweats, which previous to this had beenytry profuse. In five weeks' time I gained eight prounds or flesh rand have been able ever since to take my accustomed exercise, a walk of from three to four miles a day, and attend to my regular business. I should be most happy to have you refer any one, who may wish further particulars, to me, at my place of business, No. 305 Washington street. Very truly yours, WM. H. IIOLBROOK.

As a general rule, we have a profound contempt for patent medicines and infalible nostrums; but Hastings' Compound Syrup of Naphtha is working such well-authenticated cures in Asthmas, Consump tions, &&, all around us, that we hail it as a most important discovery, and recommend it to the no tice of those whom it may concern. Many of our medical friends have tried experiments with it, which have been astonishingly successful. For further particulars of the efficiency of the a bove medicine see advertisement in another column of to-day's paper.
