Tuesday, July 9, IS I I. FOURTH OF JULY. The. recent Anniversary of oar country's in dependence the Jubilee of American Freedom -was celebrated in this City with extraordinary ' othuiiaitn. - ;", ' Thsdawn wis ushered in by a discharge of ... Cannon, at wh.cn time the National Flag was ". displayed froih the Whig Liberty Pole.'" " " . uhAI Sunrise, Religious exercises took place at "till iOTbyterii-n Church,, the moat interesting feature oTtfcn'ww ,n Address by Rev. Mr. Edwabds of the i."thodiBt Church, whose taste and eloquence have been so """en felt and admired. At 11 o'clock, a Procession was" formed at the Court House, by Chief Marshal Coti-iNs', assist ed by his Aides, Messrs. Polk and Reynolds, and under the escort of our really splendid In fantry Snd Cavalry Companies moved to Capitol Square, where convenient arrangements had been Tnade by the C -tnmittee, for th$ large auditory as sembled. Th Declaration of Independence was read by Perrin Busbee, Esq. and an Oration pro nounced by Duncan K. McRae, Esq. which eli cited the plaudits to which it was so well enti tled, by tbe originality of its conceptions, tbe elo quence 'of its style and the animated and graceful manner of its delivery. .Id that part of his Ad dress, in which -he pourtrayed with most impas sioned language, and in their dark and appropri ate colours, tha consequences of disunion, the pa triotic indignation of the audience was .aroused. In tbe spirit, if not in the glowing language of the Orator, we say tooHe who raises the first arm to strike a blow at our political Union who makes the first effort to blot out one of the stars from our National banner will richly deserve the anathemas of a divided and ruined people to all posterity. Be his the Traitor's fame, the Traitor's doom I After going through a number of evolutions and firing?, the Military partook of an excellent Din ner prepared by Mrs. Stuart, of which we shall be pleased to publish a particular account, if fur nished to us. The friends of Sunday Schools, and'the pub lic, generally, attended at 4 o'clock at the Pres byterian Church, to join in the celebration of the Union Sabbath Schools. Appropriate Addresses were delivered by Messrs. S. B- McPheeters, Daniel Dp Pre, Jr. and T, J. Lemat. The Music was most excellent and appropriate, and well received by the immense auditory present. And to crown the whole, a plentiful Collation was served up for the Children, to the number of near three hundred. , At night, the Streets were brilliantly illumina. ted, as was Capitol Square. At 9 o'clock, the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence was read by Mr. Hampden Sidney Smith, of this City, prefaced by eome very eloquent, sensible and patriotic remarks, reflecting equal credit on his head and heart. i After an exhibition of Rockets and Fire Works. to their homes, well nleased with iIip o-lnrions - i a, celebration of a glorious day ! THE COUNTY CAMPAI0N. We were present at the Precinct, known as Spikes', on Friday Inst, and again had the plea sure of hearing our County Candidates discuss the great questions of the day In no County of the State, will Whig principles be more ably de fended, or Loco Foco heresies mare fully exposed than1 in Wake.' We hive the right sort of men in the field. Discreet, able and temperate, yet prompt, boUnd fearless, they strip sophistry of itsdisguises, demagogueism of its mask, and Dem ocracy of its false professions, a nd do it so fore i b !y too,that he wha funsi nTay roa''' We say it in no spirit of boasting, nor with the view to pro duce effect elsewhere, but We" do believe that in this County, from all we see and hear, that its political character is undergoing a change for the better. It is less than a month to the Election however, when it will be seen whether we are right or wrong in our impression. In the mean time, let every Whig be industrious, and do his whole duty, and we, may yet " astonish the na tives.' It is impossible tjiat the people can re main longer hoodwinked, with such opportunities as they now have of receiving political, light. STICK A PIN HERE ! ' The ' Independent," tha Editor of which was, at the time, Hie organ of the Loco Foco party, states in his last number, that notwithstanding the apparent zeal and fury of the members of that party who composed the Legislature of 1842-3, on the subject of the Banks, they told him they did not intend to do any thing with the Banks ! So, as the " Independent" says, all their display was to blind the eyes of a deceived and betsayed people, and to verify the demagogical cant with which they hat! insulted the public ear. KDITOR'S L CORRESPONDENCE. vv ' t) CllEKRV- H t tho request of the wings of Martin, rolllired t Wi'lliami.ion on the tli mil to meet the only mass of inldlect, and lumpMf Umledgt the State contains, (Jcn. Saun- Mr. Cherry MR. HOKE AND DISTRIBUTION. The Loco Fu ."ocant''l'a,e fr Governor asserted in his Speech in Rid.."""1"! County, (as we are informed by a gentleman v'!." was present,) that North Carolina had not received anything, under ihe Whig Distribution law, from tie proceeds of the sales of the PubSc Lands. CJen. Dock Eitr, who replied to him, denied this, and as serted that the State had received upwards of 20,000 frorn that source. This, Mr. Hoke de nied ; whereupon, Gen. Dockerv deliberately gave rwtice to the people, to mark what each of them said on the subject, as he would prove his statement to be true. Mr. Hoke thereupon said, he would not say positively it was not true, but be did not think it was. .Tuaid Col, Host's memory, for we learn he has made the same statement since, we refer him to the Acts of the last Legislature, in the hands of every Justice of the Peace, at page 115, where he will find a Resolution directing the Public Treasurer to transfer to the credit of the Literary Fund, the sum of $22,917 97, " being the amount lately "received from (ho General Government, for " the portion to which this State is entitled of "the proceeds of the sales of the Public Lands. " under an Act of Congress," &c. Aspiring to the Chief Magistracy of the State, it was Col. Hoke's duty to have known this fact. And, if ignorant of it, he ought to have ackuowledged the factr when properly informed by those who knew better. ET The Locos say Mr. Clay is a great 'Stfeatn boat politician.' This is not to be wondered at. btaaiji-ooatuien have not forgotten, that had it Dot been for Mr. C&y, l!,e Mississippi would saw-belong to old England, the higti-SheritTOf the Seas," and instead of the eight hundred Steamboats now ploughing that mighty stream the British would have it lined with the sinew of war, and be ready al any moment to commence her outbreaks upon our people. America owes him a debt of gratituiln for defending her inter ests at tho critical moment when the right to na vig ite this noble river ' the ocean's eldest born' was about to bo surrendered to the English by the Treaty of Ghent. NOT SO FAST. A Loco Foco paper, in speaking of its Candi date for the Presidency, says that he Ins, here tofore, been elected and re-elected Governor of Tennessee. This is, we believe, an error. Mr. Polk was elected in 1339, and was a candidate for re-election in 1811, when one of the merest accidents in llio world prevented his success. It appeared, on counting tho votes, that " the other man's pile was a leclle the largest ;" and what is very extraqrdinazy. the same, accidsad happened- in 1843. We have never understood that his failure, at either election, was owing to any want of exertion on his part, or the part of bin friends, but simply to the want of votes. We all know, some very fine situations have been lost in this way. LOOK OUT WHIGS! A political Missionary left here on Saturday last for the West, with a wagon loaded with documents ! Never, before, were such despe rate exertions made to hood-wink and 'deceive the people, as are now making in North Caro lina; but if the Whigs will only do their duty like men, Loco Focoism will be totally annihi lated on the first day of August. That cause must be rotten, which requires such clandes tine efforts to sustain it. Again, we say LOOK OUT WHIGS ! ELECTION TICKETS. Our Whig friends, in the adjoining Counties, would do well to send in orders shortly for Elec tion Tickets. ANOTHER ELECTOR. Daxiel B. BaeEB, Esq. of Wilmington, has been nominated as Whig Elector for that District at a Convention just held. fcT ATTENTION THE WEST XB What say you People of the West, to Gen.

TEXAS AND NULLIFICATION. The proceedings of the disunionists in South arolina, whilst ihey develop the trus spring f tbe Texas agitation, are calculated to alarm very Patriot, whatever his politics. At several these meetings, they have openly declared in vor of dissolution of the Union, rather than bandon their Texas hobby. This is what has n frequently charged ; that the Texas move- !0t evr phrase for Nullification, and it is to be used as a fire-brand, a pretext for iissolution'of the Union, and the formation of j Southern Confederacy. Those who go for a dissolution of the Union, ought to favor annexa- .bat those who wish to retain the union of the States unimpaired, should resist all such propo litjons aa will manifestly tend to disunion. O" The "Signal" gets over the difficulty of Mr. Clay's absence from the Senate, when tho Bankrupt Act was repealed, by ...citing h.is.yote,of. January 1842, on that subject. If the Editor mdans to say, that that was Ihe vote he had in his mind's eye, when referring to the subject, we have nothing more to say on that point ; but nine out of ten of bis readers, would infer he was speaking of the vote on the bill, when it was re pealed. JT TIie M Globe," io speaking of the admira ble management of the fiscal matters of the Na tion by Gen. Jackson, and especially of his course towards the United States Bank, says: " He removed the depoeites from their unsafe "keeping, and thereby saved the country from "the loss which they would have sustained, had, " the Bank retained them." Gen. Jackson did remove the depositee there is no doubt about that, but what did he save to the country by the measure? Whilst the Bank was its fiscal agent, the Nation never lost a cent of its depositee, never suffered from a moment's delay in payment, and was saved millions sy the act of the United States Bank, in placing its funds where Government payments were required. And what became of tbe money which was re moved ! But, it is folly to argue. The removal of the depositee was unlawful and wicked ; the results were disgraceful, annoying, and most in jurious. The.Old Thirteen States and their Lciritimale Offspring. An ignominous death, and a felon's grave, to the trail6r that 'will dare subscribe to the sentiment of Annexation without the Un ion,' rather than " The Union without Annexation.". The above sentiment was given by John M. Botts, at the dinner lately given to him at Rich. mood. We respond to it warmly and unquali fiedly. Gttlon H.

Polk get sore on Ibis subject, they have nobody to blame but tlioir own indiscreet leaders and Editors. They provoked the investigation, by eulogizing him as a Hero, and by representing his "ancestors" as e.licient Patriots in the days of the Revolution ; so much so, as to have been conspicuous even in j getting up the celebrated Mecklenburg Declara tion. In 1841, when Col. Polk was before the people of Tennessee as a Candidate for Governor, a spurious copy of the Mecklenburg; Declaration was published, in which was interpolated the name of Ezekiel Polk, bis Grand-father, as one of the Bigncrs. This roused the old Mecklen burg Patriots, and one of them went forw ard and gave'the following Certificate, which leaves not "a loop to hang a doubt on" as to the Toryism of the said EzekicL The old soldier, who give the statement is still living, and his character unas sailable.

BJt to the subject. The General at 1, P. M. commenced an address of three hours continuance, which was eharac- "Jlau uy ooid and unblushing assertions, insid ions insinuations about "what others s.iy," and that kind of quibbling upon word, for which ho is so proverbial. In short, ho acted the Brigadier to p;rlei lion. He began by thanking ihe audience lor Iht-.r alU'iiddiice on hia-siniointtnen!. assuring them ol the purity of his motives, and disinlcrust" ednets of his feelings, tho fairness and impartial ity of Ins manner, his coi.rtesy of debate, the tenderness and kindness whi.-h dim,!,! r.,.,r.,in. izo Ins language, and yd the independence and manliness which should govern him in dealini'' out lads f.ir their instruction desired t hum to relied upon those f.ict.-, and, if Democrats, to re main firm in ihe l.tiih, but if Whigs, In learn lessons of wisdom from the trre.it Gamaliel, the uminoim orb of iiitelli.rnnce and mirror of win. oin, who had put himself so far not of his Way o appear before them. The above is tho 8Ub. stance ( lii.e.ni-.li:u n,. ,I0M r,,aj )e yi , creed, from a p e 'e of paper on which was a Coon aad likcncfa of Cj.av, bowled !'-C,htj and Prater- i ion, anil Ihen read Ihe Democratic creed, by adding " we are opposed to all this, &c." stated the Coon vvas'tho iiiMgnia of Whig principles, but remarked that the "Hickory tree'' was em blematical of Democratic principles, "deep root ed," far spreading, under whose protecting boughs ho meant to do baltlo during tins campaign, (shewing at the same tiino a tree drawn with n pencil on the Coon paper as he called it.) And here, lie thundered up Olympus, until he nearly burst himself and our snug littlo Court House. which was not built purpoucly to suit tho stento- . . i. ,iii in um ouutj ut lor office.' When he let himself down, he com menced upon the U. S. Bank, the constitutional, ityof which he passed over lightly, hut came with a vongeanco against its expediency ; which, he alleged, consisted in bribing voters, corrupting tho people," destroying their liberties, and oxpedi- etu onty lor gambling politicians to speculate upon. A-nd at. this stage of the gamo, he deified Gen. Jackson's iron will, and placed him on the Calendar of Saints. Then, he pounced upon tlyj Tariff, the ahomi. nablc protective Tariff ; and on tins subject in particular, he displayed tho bitter and r-.alignnnt feelings of a broken dtnvn gamMer, rather than the calm and dispassionate feelings which should always be part and parcel of an experienced Statesman, when treating of national measures. But no ! Tho Norlh was arrayed against the South in every breath, and sectional feelings of the blackest cast appealed to, but it was "love's labor lost" on the intelligent audience ho had. He admitted, however, lie went for protection, so far as raising 1 1 to necessary revenue would do ii. On the expenditures, he tried to prove that the Whigs were now squandering about four million dollars per year more than Mr. Van Btircn bad done, and went on to tell how the Democrats had reduced the expenses if Ihe Army one and a half millions. JJu' some one in tho crowd contended that a Whig Congress had done that ; and he sneaked out, by saying the Democrats xolei with them. On the Veto, and one term principle, he contended that the Whigs were traitors to the Gonstitulkmt and-pathetically called upon the shades of departed heroes In roine to the rescue. Here followed a contrast of Graham and Hoke, in which Hoke was made everything, and Gra ham a Federalist iiihcart and principle. He con trasted Clay and Polk, at which tho Whigs laughed, and Democrats drooped their heads ; but the General went on, and Mr. Clav came out wanting. The General contended that Polk was better soiled to bo President than Clav, as ho had not lived long enough at Washington to be corrupted or deprived of ins common sense a circumstance which always followed a long resi tlence there, (hough he had been saved by re maining at homo for a number of years. But, on this subject, llierc is a difference of opinion between him and many who heard him, for 1 can assure you I thought Oil! wnd tome powr tl gifiie gie us, To see ouritd'i n iihers tee ut'. Ho next pounced upon Mr. Ci.at's Kccch in Raleigh, denied that tho principles of the Whigs were the same as tliohe of '99 growled at the Democrats being called Dorrites, and not a taw abiding people stated ' that he thought Gov. Morehead might have whispered in his (Clay's) ear Touch light upon Dorrism, for a few years ago the West teas Dcrrile in principle, in try ing to amend our Constilu'ion, and had the East ern counties not been patriotic on that question, ice might have been Dorrites in practice. Out the East was palrittic, and saved North Carolina in that emergency " And last, but not least, came Texas. Here he should be sorry to think there was any dif ference of opinion frorn him in old Bertie, which had stood shoulder to shoulder with Caswell County in 1812-13, advocating the last war, and for which he still loved her so much. And, af ter sounding kettle, bugle, trumpet, drum, can non and thunder, tho General took his seat, con siderably exhausted.

On the TnrirJ', lis was equally triumphant, and kept the General rising occasionally to explain, which in him is tantamount to saying "Stand off Sir, you tread too roughly on my corns." Tho Distribution, tho Vclo, and one-term prin. ciplo, were disposed of in n like mnslerly tn inner, lor kingly attributes nnd Federal dogmas appear in Ciikuhy'b hands, despotic, black and bloody. He, too, compared Polk and Clay, hut said it was comparing a torn tit wiih an caglo. Who was Polk ! lie had been elected to Congress, Chairman of the Cumnnllee of Ways and Means, and Speaker was elected Governor, and twice beaten for ihe same offiro this was tile whole length, depth and bread: h of Jamik Folk's his tory.

And all he could say .of Folk" was, Wise had lull him ho was the contemptible tool of a petty tyrant, which ho pocketed, and that ho had gained soipo notoriety as Speaker for packing Committees. Ho next contrasted Polk and Dallas on the Bank, Internal Iinpri.vc. ment and Tariff, and wished to know how tho people, advocating Ihe principles of the one, roiild swallow both! Ho next spoke of Graham, Clav and Fkllinuiiuvskn as became tho men, and in the finest strains of the Speaker; claimed for Graham a superiority in intellect over Hoke, and contended that Graham was at least Us equal in everything else, especially w hcu,furo "Ltl genu ine American feelings wcro concpmer And last, but not least, his Cjessful overthrow of the General's position that Sir. Clay was in consistent on the Texas ouestion, cave a blow lo the General's character for invulnerability from which he will not soon recover. He thrust Upon the other parly Ihe disorganizing tendency of the measure, an 1 cited the proceedings of the chivalry" as proof. Ho could liot contradict positively, the General's statement, but doubted whether Houston could have written, to Jackson and Jackson lo Tyler. He contended that tlte Democratic p irty had stolen tho Captain's thun der on this subject, for wbich ho should sue their leaders in a Court of Justice, and recover damages. But they took it in their need. They found they had not a place to put their foot upon in tho Uni ted Slates, and they had gone to Texas just for a strip of land to put Jamie down on ; and here he concluded a two and a half hours Speech, and resumed his seat amidst loud and prolonged applause.
