AUTHORIZED PUBLISHERS OF THB LAWS OF THE UXITtfD STATES.
The Register-air. Stanly Gov. Walker.
The RegUter, we are glad to observe, deals addi-.
tional and still heavier blows upon the traitor Stanly.
That paper is now in advance in this respect of sev
eral of. its K. N. coadiutors of the press in this
w - m
State ; and though our neighbor did not maintain
bis original position in the Scott campaign, but suc
cumbed, and went at last with' the Scott-Seward par
ty, yet we have seen nothing since the formation of
the black Republican party to cause us to doubt his
fixed and lasting opposition to it, or to incline ns to
believe that he is not ""true to the land of his birth."
Certainly we do not, as the Register intimates, " rank
ourselves among those who takeuhto themselves
the exclusive guardianship of Southern rights;" yet
the fact is plain, that so far as parties are concerned,
the only reliable and effectual guardianship which
Southern 'rishts now have, or can have- in the fu
ture, is to be found in the national Democratic par
ty. That the Register feels and sees this to be so,
we do not doubt, however he may be restrained by
prudential party considerations from admitting the
fact.
But the Register is in advance in this respect, as
we have said, of several of its K. N. coadjutors of
the press in this State. But few of them denounce
Edward Stanly's treason' as he and the Milton
Chronicle have done ; while the majority of them
are either "silent or looking for a soft place to receive
the traitor in his fall. The Kinston Advocate, for
example, is a little troubled, a little sorry, a little
indignant, and greatly mortified at Mr. Stanly's
course ; while the Wilmington Herald, more out
spoken than the Advocate, expresses itself as follows :
" We admire his. (Stanlv's.1 moral courage. He
has the nerve to express boldly the sentiments en
tertained by many Southern men whose lips are
sealed by. policy.
The meaning of which is, tluit many Southern
Know Nothings are ready to unite with Mr. Stanly
and the llack Repvbliean parly against the Demo
cratic party, but tbeir " lips are sealed by policy,'
and they lack the moral courage to announce their
position. And Mr. Stanly seems to understand this,
for in one of his letters which he is reported to have
written since his nomination, he says : "
t tcf ' uno vnorf v nflr T had flprllnpl Viv
word and by letter, I was nominated for the office
iUWt 1. V. W u m w , " - - - J
of Governor. I take no new principles stand on
no platform but that of a North-Carolinian on his
nrutt. life and exvressed opinions. Of course, I do
not think I can be elected the hope of success does
not animate me. I shall get a very respectable vote,
but I hope will not be elected. My wish is not to
remain here, and, if elected, I would be kept two
years any how.
My heart is in North Carolina. I run not to be
elected, but to oppose Democracy." -.
Though the nomineeand the candidate by bis
own consent of the black Republican party, Mr.
Stanly nevertheless declares that he has taken "no
new principles" that he stands as a " North-Carolinian
on his past life and expressed opinions."
That is, he still claims fellowihip with the Know
Nothings of his native State, and expects them in due
time to co-operate with him in the prime object of
his existence, opposition to Democracy. He hopes
he will, not -be elected who believes it? for his
" heart," he says, " is in North-Carolina." This is
all gammon and blarney. Edward Stanly knows
that he has deserted the best interests of his native
State, and that the triumph' of the party to which
he now belongs, would degrade and disgrace, and in
the end destroy North-Carolina ; yet his " heart" is
with us, and he wishes to escape political honors, so
as to return and remain among his old constituents
and friends! He is paving' the way for 1860, and
he is looking to the South for such aid as will make
a show for his party of nationality in the campaign,
in which he hopes to play a conspicuous part
44 Opposition Jo Democracy" is his watchword, and
in this be is seconded by the Know Nothings of the
South and the black Republicans of the North. Dis
agreeing in some things, they certainly agree in this.
Here, at least, they are a band ot brothers ; and the-
next campaign for the Presidency will more clearly
reveal the fact The national Democratic party will
not only have to settle finally the Kansas question,
and to compose-the difficulties in its own ranks
growing out of disappointments" in office-seeking,
and out of an unequal, and it may be an unavoida
ble dispensation of honors and patronage, and out
of ultraisms in both sections in relation to Gov.
Walker and Kansas; but it will have td gather itself
up, and meet, and again put down' the ; combined
forces of the opposition North and South, by what
ever name called : and it will be called upon to do
this, not as an ordinary -or common-place political
achievement, but as affording the' only means for
administering the (Constitution in its true spirit, of
preventing a geographical triumph, and of thereby
saving the Union. . That greaf old. party . now has
ItaiMrii
control in air the departments of the government,
with the Supreme Court sustaining -its position on
the slavery question, and it , is stronger than it was
in 1856 when itelected its candidate, Mr Buchanan,
by so-small a majority oter the black Republican
candidate ; but .we; must bear in mind that in the
next campaingn it will be met by a united' opposi-
turn, with one candidate sustained and urged by
nien who would sink every thing : to defeat and de
stroy it, and to clutch once, more the spoUs of office
But the .foigfcr, endeavors to off-set Edward Stan
ly's" treason by imputing to Pre3identsB,uchanan a
'disposition and a. consequent use of the means to
make Kansas a free State. That paper says : -
J' In its haste to impute to us a too moderate cen
sure, of Mr. Stanly's course,.the Standard seems en
tirely to have forgotten how very amenable it is to a
similar, aye. a much heavier rebuke.- for" its own
iourse in the matter of Buchanan, Walker, and Kan
sas, ine atanaara belongs to the Order vf Viam
pions par excellence of Southern Eights. This time
one year ago, the Standard proclaimed . from the
house tops that the salvation of the South depended
npon Kansas comin? into the Union as a slave State.
ana tnat the election of Mr. Buchanan was jndispen-
saple to that result Mr. Buchanan was elected, and
sq far from accomplishing. the main object of his
Southern supporters, has set deliberately to work,
through his agent, Walter, to frustrate it, by bring
ing' in Kansas as a free' State. This is notoriously
true, and where, we ask, have slept the thunders of
me xuueign acanaarar; .
Nothing could be more unfounded than the above.
We have never said that the " salvation of the South
depended upon Kansas coming into the Union as a
slave State." We have maintained, and still main
tain, that the Missouri restriction was unconstitu
tional, and ought to have been repealed, leaving
slavery to spread itself out under the laws of nature,
that is, of climate and soil, unbarred by arbitrary
lines ; that the people of Kansas, in Convention as
sembled, alone have the right to determine whether
they will have slavery or not; and that their decis
ion, when fairly arrived at and made known, ought
to settle the question, not only in Congress and ia
Kansas itself, but in all sections of the Union. The
election of Mr. Buchanan " was indispensable " to
secure to the people of Kansas this great right of
self-government p but Mr. Buchanan was elected
neither as a pro-slavery nor as an anti-slavery man.
The ' national Democratic party have undertaken
neither to propagate nor to restrict slavery, but to
protect it where the Constitution protects it, and to
leave it to its own course, alike unhindered and un
favored by Congressional intervention, in the com
mon territories. Mr. Buchanan was elected to con
tinue the work commenced by Mr. Douglas, Mr.
Cass, Mr. Badger, and the national 'Democratic par
ty, of keeping the question of slavery out of the
halls of Congress, and of referring it for solution
and decision to the people of the territories ; and
most faithfully thus far has Mr. Buchanan met the
expectations of the great body of those who elected
him. The Register will convince no one in North
Carolina that Mr. Buchanan is a freesoiler, or that
he has gone "deliberately to work, through his
agent; Walker," to make Kansas a free State. True,
it has asserted the fact, just. as the black Republicans
of California and of the North are charging that Mr.
Buchanan is seeking to make Kansas a, slave State.
And herein we see exemplified the tactics of the
common opposition to the national Democracy just
referred to. The Register and other Southern K. N.
journals affirm that, the administration,- and that
Gov. Walker as its agent, are doing all they can to
put' down slavery in Kansas ; whereas, the New
York Tribune, the New York Post, and the other
frtesoil journals of the North, with Lane and Robin
son and their followers in Kansas, are quite as
severe in their denunciations of President Buchanan
and Gov. Walker for their efforts, as they say, to
make Kansas a slaveholding State. We might fill
column after column with these denunciations.
Wilmot, for example, of Pennsylvania, who is sup
ported for -Governor by the "Americans" and black
Republicans combined, in a recent speech in Greens-
burgh, in that State, "attacked the Supreme Court
for their decision in the Dred Scott case " " assailed
I .
Mr. Buchanan as the tool of the South, and rated
about the wrongs of Kansas" The very sectional-
ism which is now a prominent feature of the oppo
sition to the national Democracy, is so used as to
inflict more injury upon the country and upon De
mocracy than if that opposition occupied a national
platform and agreed in all its views. At the North
it is ultra Northern, and at the South it is ultra
Southern ; one section accusing the Democrats with
a purpose to spread slavery over all the territories
and even into the .Northern States themselves, and
the other section holding the President up as a free
soiler and as bent upon limiting and destroying
slavery. " Opposition to Democracy " is the watch
word, uttered by the traitor Stanly in California,
and taken up and echoed in all the Atlantic States,
" opposition, to Democracy" whatever the result
may be, now or hereafter.
The Register says the "acquisition of Kansas asa
free State would be an abolition triumph, and an
eternal bar against "the extension of slavery." 'We
do not admit this ; but admitting it to be true, for
argument's sake, how does it affect the Editor of the
Register and those who act with him ? He thinks
the country ought to have' adhered to the Missouri
restriction, by which Kansas would have betn bound
hand and foot to the abolitionists.- lie would have
given the South no chance in Ka-nsas, but would "have
barred them out forever by Congressional interven
tion. Nay, more than this, the old Whig-party
with which he acted until " Sam " seduced himfrom
his party fealty, and the K. N. party with which he
now acts, with Mr. . Fillmore at its head, would not
only have maintained this odious restriction, hut by
the Wilmot proviso would have placed an " eternal
bar against the extension of slavery" into any and
-all the territories, of the-Uriion. Does our neighbor
deny this? Can he have the assurance to insist that
he had any agency, or that'the K. N. party had any
agency in opening Kansas to Southern. men?
In conclusion we: invite the attention of our ex
temporary and of all who think with him on this:
subject, to the following article from, a late number
of the Washington Union: r

Snocco. See an interesting letter in another col
umn, lrom the i'etersburg Express, dated Shocco
Springs. The tournament, to take place on the
15th, with the balls and parties to succeed it, will
attract a large crowd. By the way, we see that our
friend of the Warrenton Xem has been to Shocco.
. He returned to his sanctum delighted with his trip.
Our neighbor of the Register, it will be remem
bered, challenged us to meet him at Jones' and
Shocco, and we accepted the challenge. Our little
"affair of honor" was unusually interesting. We
went, we saw each other at Jones', and we mutually
conquered. Our neighbor was deliberate and firm.
He boro himself just as he should have , done on
such an occasion, except that once he was somewhat
Startled and lost his equilibrium by the premature
popping of a champagne bottle. We excused him,
however, and our second, Col. T., overlooked the
circumstance, seeing that our neighbor and antago
nist was not used to such reports. .
And now, but for the advanced age of our neigh
bor, we would challenge him to a tilt in the tourna
ment on the 15th at Shocco. That is a considera
tion, however, which puts it out of our power, ac
cording to the code, to call him to the field. That
he would go if challenged, we make no doubt ; but
then, while we wou"id appear as the Knight of the
Handsome, he would be there as the Knight of the
.Venerable and Rueful Countenance. We have no
doubt that in a tilt the best horses of course beinjr
provided our neighbor and ourself would miss the
ring five limes out of fiver We should thus be even
again, leaving him, however, the advantage which
must always be accorded to a Knight who at his
age enters the lists against an ardent and enthusi
astic youth, like ourself I
The Saratoga Waters. The Senior Editor of the
Fayetteville Observer writes as follows from Sara
toga :
-44 It used to be the jocular wish of a former citi
zen of Fayetteville, in his convivial moments, when
extending a generous hospitality to his friends, that
he could have upon his plantation a. spring that
flowed champagne unceasingly. Every body knew
that his wish was as much for his friends as for
himself. We have here a better than a champagne
spring one that exhikrates without intoxicating,
that rejuvenates mind and body, not temporarily
and to be followed by langour, as in the case' of the
wine, but permanently, giving health and strength
- one that cannot be adulterated, but that gushes
unceasingly, perfect, froni the hand of the great
Maker of all good and perfect things. I am thank
ful that it exists, and that of it I have been so often
permitted to drink and be healed. I wish that we
had such, a fountain in North-Carolina. Possibly
we have, in some unexplored wild, its delightful
water running to waste, as too much else that is
good is permitted to run to waste in North-Carolina."
. We learn that there m a spring in Western North
Carolina Wilson's spring, near Shelby, in Cleave
land which is said to be nearly if not quite equal
in virtue to the Saratoga waters. The proprietor,
however, has -not improved the premises to any
considerable -extent, and declines to sell, having
been offered, we learn, as much as $75,000 by a
company for the spring and a portion of the grounds.
He annually realizes a considerable sum from vis
itors." ' ' .
$W The Register heads one of its leaders as fol
lows : " False accusations against the American
party." We beg that paper to explain.. What does
it mean ? Is there such a party as 44 the American
party?" If so, we trust our neighbor will point it
out Let us have its 'platform, its appearances, its
, dimensions. .Let us hear something of its hopes.
Really, our. neighbor must be joking. But perhaps
.he -refers to. the Fifth Mr. Gilmer's District-tcAicA
voted against Free Suffrage, -la that the "Ameri
can party?" Where else shall we look for it? In
Stanly, Randolph; Montgomery, and Iredell, which
also voted against Free Suffrage ? Let us hear from
ydu, neighbor. ,

Surplus is the Treasury. The Fayettevile"05r
server, assuming that there are. now $20,000,000 in .
the federal treasury, and that the tariff will produce
the present year $80,000,000, estimates that there
will be on hand at the end of the lineal yearj $50,
000,000. Without intending to endorse what the
Observer sayar to reply to any part of it just now,
or to explain some mistakes Into which he has fal
len on the subject, we give his article as follows:
"All parties, we believe,- are agreed that the mo-'
. ney must not stay in the Treasury. - It must be got-.
ten nd ot in some way, and the only question is as
to the way. This question has passed from the
hands of the people into those of their Representa
tives. -And these latter have been instructed all
through the South if indeed the results of popular
elections are indications of popular sentiment not
to distribute the proceeds of the public lands, by
which in great part the surplus has been secured.
The same results have , quite as strongly endorsed
the votes of nearly all our Southern Congressmen
in favor of depositing that same surplus with the.
States. . It is to be hoped that our Representatives
will heed the popular voice, so strongly expressed, '
and that they will again vote for deposite, and early .
enough in the session to have the bill put through .
the Senate.
It is true, as the Wilmington JiwmaJonce wisely
remarked, that there is not a particle of difference
between distribution and deposite. - But that is so
much the better. All parties will be pleased. The
Democrats, (all except the Journal, which has been
disposed to draw too fine a point,) are in favor of
deposite. The Americans are all in favor of distri
bution. Either plan will give ns the money. We
are for the money. Therefore we are for distribu
tion and deposite, either; or both, and will not quar
rel with the title of the act. Distribute the money
if you can. But if the majority insist upon depos
king it, and the" only difference is in the name, why .
in all conscience deposite' it Like the rose, the
public money will smell as sweet to Mr. Treasurer
Courts, (don't he wish he may get it T) whether dis
tributed or .deposited in his hands. But we are
aware that the Treasurer thinks there is a vast dif
ference between distribution and deposite. We
think that he thinks very curiously in thinking so.
Yet as both of us want the funds, as the funds can
not reach us except through his hands, and as he is
opposed to having them distributed into his hands,
though quite willing to have them deposited there,
why, like reasonable men, we say throw distribu
tion to tho dogs. Deposite is the word."
Affairs rs Kansas. The Washington corres
pondent of the New York Tribune says: "Gov.
Walker's manifest complicity with the ultra slavery
faction in Kansas, has already crushed Southern re
bellion." Again :
" Gov. Walker has been much frightened by the
threats of rejection by the Senate. lie is now heart
and hand with the extreme pro-slavery faction. He
.has eaten all his past fair promises, and sent most'
humble dispatches from Kansas for the Southern
market. Whitfield, who is now here, reports Walk
er as at present the pet of the border ruffian. Since
Walker's conversion, nobody doubts the perfect suc
cess of the intended border ruffian invasion from
Missouri of the polls of Kansas." -
The Tribune, referring to the probability of the
constitution of Kansas being silent on the subject
of slavery, says:
" The constitution has of course been already con
cocted in some pro-slavery conclave, and the con
vention will merely go through the form of adopt
ing it They doubtless know a good deal more about
its features in Washington than in Kansas.
" A constitution silent as to slavery," framed by
a convention elected under border-ruffian authority,
will be a pro-slavery constitution ; slavery is already
in Kansas, so far as usurpation bogus law can plant
it there, and a Convention springing from the bogus
authority does not need to legalize slavery there to
say nothing is to leave slavery legalized and estab
lished. No intelligent person can honestly dispute
this."
And yet we are told by the Southern K. N. press
that Mr. Buchanan' is a freesoiler, and that Gov.
Walker is playing into the hands of the abolitionists.
Who believes it ?
Cocntt Fairs. The fourth annual Fair of the
Orange County Agricultural Society will be held

89T" The Washington Star is greatly pleased at
Beverly Tucker's appointment as Consul to Liver
pool. The Star feared at one time that Mr. Tucker
would not accept, but adds in a postscript to its arti
cle that 44 we have' just satisfied ourself that Mr.
Tucker this morning formally accepted the Liverpool .
Consulate."
Edward Staslt. The base treason of this base
traitor to the land of his birth, can only be account
ed for by. his desire to be made President of the
United States. We confess that this man has de
ceived us and a crisis has arrived when e hardly
know who to trust. We commenced
this article, however, to apologize to the Raleigh
Standard for denying the truth of its assertions,
years ago, when it 44 charged Stanly " with Freesoil
proclivities. For once, it seems, the Standard was
rigut but wuat does it think ot Old Buck ? -
Milton Chronicle.
We think "old Buck" is right, as he always was.
' Missouri. The official result in Missouri is as
follows : For Governor, Stewart, Bcmocrat47,975 ;
Rollins, Emancipationist, 47,641 majority for Stew
art, 834. The Wilmington Herald does not state
tho fact that Rollins was supported by the united
Enow Nothing and black Republican vote. - Every
where the Democratic is the conservative party, and
the surest stay of dotnestic slavery. That party is
breasting the abolition current is Missouri, just as it
did in Kentucky some eight or nine years ago.
Time is Mosey, We have seen Watson's Twelve
Dollar Sewing Machine, and take pleasure in calling
the attention of the heads of families to it The
machine is exceedingly simple and can be worked -by
a mere'' child.;- The rapidity arid-neatness with
which it dashes off its work are truly marvelous.
It will take any length of stitch required, at the rate
of three hundred per minute; but with the addition '
of a little power, which' is supplied by a treadle, its
speed is increased to nine hundred stitcjies per min
ute. The machine is quite complete for twelve dol- '
lars, and will ornament any lady's work-table ; but'
a Aeat iron stand, with ' treadle, gearing and a 'com
plete outfit, will add some ten dollars to.the cost. It
I- is well worth a visit . Those having large families
and numerous servants would do well -to call and
examine it, at Copcland's Gallery, , oyer the Post -office.

"WAsnrNGTOJT, Sept 2. The letter spoken of by
the press from several Professors and Doctors of Di
vinity in Connecticut, will be published to-morrow
with tha President s reply.
The former is couched in language, and abounds
in expressions, highly inpulting. It intimates that
the President has violated his oath. They say :
They see with grief, Walker openly represents the
President, and is employing through hhn the pres
ence of an army in Kansas to force people to obey
laws not their own, nor those of the country. That
by the foregoing assertion, the President is procaim
ed as violating in. its most essential particular, the
solemn oath he has taken to support the Constitu
tion." ' - -
They also say : 4He is held up to mankind as
levying war against the Union." They conclude by
saying, "they have also taken an oath to support the
Constitution, and will pray God to make his admin
istration' an example of justice, beneficence, etc"
-Mr. Buchanan replies in etiect tnat those are
heavy charges, and if well founded ought to consign
his name to infamy ; but he adds, that common jus
tice and christian chanty, required before making
them, that these charges should have been ascertain
ed to be well founded. If not they will redound
with withering condemnation on the authors. ,IIe
asks if they have performed that duty. If so, he or
they, have been laboring under a strange delusion.
Should this be the case, it presents a memorable
example of the truth, that political prejudice is blind
even to the existence of the plainest historical facts.
He then reviews the history of the territory. Says
he found the government of Kansas as well estab
lished as that of any other Territory, and it is his
duty to sustain this government to protect it fiom
the violence of lawless men to prevent it being
overturned by force. It was this which caused him
to order troops to Kansas to act as a posse comilatvs
to aid the civil magistrate in enforcing the laws.
He administers a withering rebuke to their assum
ed piety, and says they can greatly assist him in
arriving at the blessed consummation of making the
administration an example of justice, by their influ
ence in allaying sectional 'excitement on the subject
of slavery. ' "
He places his trust in God, and hopes to be in
strumental in restoring harmony and peace. He
has entire confidence in Gov. Walker, and knows
that the troops will not be employed, except to re
sist actual aggression in the execution of the laws.

Charlotte Female College. We are pleased to
learn that the Trustees have secured the services of
Rev. Mr. Burwell, of Hill&boro', to take charge of
the Female Co'lege in this place. He contemplates
opening the Col'egc for the reception of pupils about
the middle of October. Mr. Burwell has conducted
a female school at Uillsboro' for 20 years past, and
has earned a high reputation as a competent instruc
tor. From what we know of the gentleman by re
putation, we congratulate the friends of the institu
tion at their success in selecting him as Principal,
v Facilities, for educating young ladies in Charlotte

the citizens of this section will take advantage by

New Orleans, AlAg. 31. Mass Was celebrated
yesterday in memory of Lopez, and minute guns
were fired.
. The deaths last week, amounted to one hundred
and two. ' "'
The total receipts of cotton here last year amount
ed to 1,330,000 bales. The exports amounted to
1,517,000 bales. The receipts of the new crop so
far have been 130 bales against l,6o0 bales to same
time last year.
Thb Crops. In the adjoining counties of Forsyth,
Stokes and Rockingham the fields are burdened
with the abundance of the cropa ' Corn especially
never looked more promising and with the assistance
of the gentle ram now descending, many farmers
will be compelled to build new barns for storage.
From .the severe winter, tobacco plants were late,
and consequently this crop is not quite so forward,
but with an accommodating- Fall the markets will
be well supplied.' The above is what we have seen
and corroborates with reports from all parts of the
countrv. Greensboro Times.

recently arrived at Frankfort Maine, from Cuba,'
with a load ot sugar, states tnat immense quantities
of sugar are field in store in. Cuba, awaiting the re
sult of the sugar crop in Louisiana, in. the hope' that
frost will impair it, and still enable the Cuban specu
lators to keep up the -price. "If the Louisiana croD
turns out well, as there i good reason to believe
the holders have got to let go both sugar and exor
bitant prices, which they have biterto controlled by
combination till the article has accumulated on their

Hosl Bedford Brows. Last week we nad ' the
' pleasure of seeing and renewing the acquaintance of
the Hon. Bedford Brown of. Caswell county. . He. is
one of the "old time" democrats, and a conversation
' with him was both pleasant and instructive to us.
. Mr. Brown was first elected to the Senate of. the U.
States from North Carolina in 1828. and wis re-el ect
. ed for .another term, which position he occupied,
with Hon. Robt Strange of Fayetteville, aa his col- --league,
until instructed out .by a whig Legislature
with K. Rayner at its head.. As a sound, reliable,
consistent democrat, Bedford Brown, has no superi
ors as a courteous, affable aid unassuming gentle
man, but few equals. , While in the Senate he 'dis
tinguished himself by speeches in opposition. to what
was known as the 44 Force Bill" (for subjugating
South Carolina,) and jn favor, of the, Expunging
Resolutions. He discharged bis doty to his consti-
tuents and party faithfully, satisfactorily ahdfear
lessly. ' . .-...
After leaving the Senate be removed to Missouri,
but a few Tears airo he rftthrnnA tn KnrtTi natwlin&
to spend the remainder of his days among, his old
friends and acquaintances, which we hope will be' as
pleasant and agreeable to hinyas it will be to his
numerous party admirers. . Char. Dem,
