STAND OUT OF TS WAY
The old Worlh State Ji tulngr
Wa crowd into thi paper, all the returui tbat
ha come to band, of our recent State Electioaa,
Hi! though we feel the moat entire confidence
that the Wkiga have achieved A glorioua victory,
and secured both a Whig GoveiW aod Whig
Lcjialature, yet aa some of our mjbritiea and
gains a,r made on the statement of Way-billa
and bimngw we think it the wisest plan to
state fact, as we believe them to exicrt, and re
serve oar commentaries, until the precise result
is ascertained.
If our reported gains for the Legislature be
correct, and vre have no doubt of any of them
but those front Bartie, then have we not only
overcome the Loco Foco majority of 24, in the
last Legislature, but wo have already an ascer
tained majority of 12 on joint ballot. But we ex
pect to gain besides in Hyde, in Craven, in Burke,
in Gates, and perhaps, elsewhere. We shall not
be. surprised "if our majority rsne up to 23 or even
higher. '
Graham is certainly elected Governor, but by
what majority we cannot say, as HoXE runs ahead
of his party strength almost every where. His
majority cannot, however, we should think, fall
short ofour or five thousand.
We dare say our Whig friends will thii.'k we
ought, at once, amid a flourish of trumpet, to
proclaim an almost unparalleled political victory
We have, ourself, net the slightest doubt that
.iH;J.obfl!( l day; or two will de.
termine the whole matter, and it is so unpleasant
to lead the public astray on any matter, particu
larly one of such great interest, that we had
rather incur the imputation of saying (oo little
I wan .too much of ou achievements. But just let
our menus took at our Tables, and each man can
j udge for himself. '

The glorious news from these two Counties
produced quite an electrical effbet in this City, on
Saturday last. Whig stock rose rapidly in the
market, and while every Whig countenance was
radiant with smiles, the faoes of our Loco Foco
friends were exactly the length of a Coon skin,
with the tail on. The Whig Flag was display
ed from the Liberty Pole during the day, in com
pliment to our gallant friends in Orange, John
ston and Chatham. It is a source of regret, tbat
that fearless champion of Whig principles, John
McLeod, should hare been beaten in Johnston,
but he,;ww jyersoatodtiiif, wore than fuUy .ftBi.

OFFICIAL PROMPTITUDE.
Mr. Jones, the Sheriff of Warren, has been
the first to settle his Public Accounts this year

The Whigs hare again been defeated in this
County, though the result ahows a small increas

more faithfully discbarge their duty than our's
did. They deserved to succeed, and are entitled
to the gratitude of the Whig party for their vigo
rous and able detence of Whig principles.

ANOTHER SCREW LOOSE I
N.J. Palmer, Esq. of Milton, in this State,
who has always been a Jackson, Van Buren
man, took occasion at a public meeting on the
26th ult. to declare the reasons which impel him
to join the Whig's. They are, in substance, pre
cisely those given by Mr. Lohixg for his aban
donment of the party. Mr. Palmer will be an
important acquisition in that quarter, and we con
gratulate the Whigs on his accession to our ranks.
After the Candidates for the Legislature ceased
speaking, Mr. Palmer rose not to make a Speech
time would not permit him even had he the in-
clinatipu. lie was no candidate for office he do
sired no political distinction. he appeared before
the people as an humble individual who felt a
deeper interest for the welfare of his country
than he did for the selfish interest of a party.
Actuated by an honest heart and a pure con
science, candor compelled bin) to declare that
he could not subscribe to the monotrous posi
tions now assumed by that party much less
could he consent to be led by men who were
daily plotting the overthrow of our happy Union.
Who, he asked, were they that now stood at the
head of the Democratic party in the South !
Sir, said he, they are men whose voices are
echoing " nullification !" "disunion !" He could
not consent to bo tied to the coat tail of such
men as these. Ho had been in favor of the an
nexation, of Texas, but a recent personal inter
view with General Thompson, our late Minister
to Mexico, convinced him that annexation was
not the thing it was cracked up to be that ii
w.otild ruin the present Southern States tbat it
would inevitably involve us in a disgraceful war,
if, indeed It did not dissolve the Union. Besides,
he found that he had been "going it blind" for
Texas he had been going for it without "count-
: .1 .i, .j . , .
wg iiiu cwi sue was over neau ana ears in
debt her debt had been represented at $10,-
000,000, but the truth was Texas did not know
how much she owed ; he ventured to say that
Texas owed 10 times that amount, for it was not
reasonable .to suppose that the Florida War with
a handful of Indians should cost the United Slates
$40,000,000, and the Texas war, a war of eight
or nine years standing, only cost $10,000,000
Mr. P. reminded gentlemen that they would hare
the Texas debt to pay. Mr. Palmer begged leave
to differ from the gentlemen who' had just ad
dressed the people, on the tariff and distribution
questions : He did not think the Tariff of '42
oppressive for his own part he could find no
cause for complaint he bought as much mer-
chandise aa most men, and be got his goods as
cheap. as be bad ever been able to boy them :
He thought the hue and cry against the Tariff
unjust : The Government had to be supported,
and the Tariff ought to be large enough to do it,
without taking the Public Land fund from the
States. He considered that Mr. Van Buren bad
been shamefully cheated out of the nomination
by the disunionists he could have supported
Van Buren but be couldn't go Col. Poke the
company be kept, or rather the company that
kept tbe Colonel was too obnoxious to hie taste.
So b found himself called ipon to choose be
tween Henry Clay, Texas and Disunion and
who could hesitate which of the two to choose !
Mr. Palmer said be would at a future time give
bis reasons In detail for refusing to go for Polk
and Dallas, Texas and Disunion. .
ID" We have referred to the fact that tha re
cent outbreaks in different parts of the country,
and which are regarded by thoughtful men with
the most serious'' apprehensions, are directly
chargeable to the spirit of Locofocoism. They
are. tbe legitimate offspring of that law defying
principle. No man at all familiar with tbe causes
of these disturbances, and with the mode of their
Origin, and their consummation, can doubt this.
No man, who will thoroughly and deliberately
examine the principles of Locofocoism, can won.
der at'it. There is nothing which more striking
ly marks the distinction between the two great
parties, than the reverence for law, and the forms
of law.n one side, and tho contempt for them
oa lnea9Ule When a wrong has been accom
plished, ojjjat tempted, through a violation of the
Sacred forms of few, the support "and the'sym-'
pathy have come from the Locofoco party ; the
same party which pressed the admission of Mich
igan, which raised up the Mormon power in Illi
nois, which justifies repudiation in Mississippi,
which perpetrated the Elliot frauds iA New Or
leans, which encouraged Dorr'ism in' Rhode Is
land, and which, by the flattery of the foreign
population, prepared for the .riots in Pennsylva
nia ; the same party which now seeks, by .the
violation of solemn treaty stipulations, by the sac
rifice of national honor, and by the commission of
the grossest public perfidy, to forcibly annex
Texas and a large portion of Mexico to this Uuion.
This party is now appealing to (lie public for a
perpetuation of power, and in a few months tho
great question will be decided whether the peo
ple will again entrust to such hands the guar
dianship of their free institutions. It is not a
time when "a man, imbued ever so slightly with
conservative feelings, can pause. There is but
one party with which the conservative interests
of the country are safe, and that is the Whig
party. He who hesitates to support that party
upon any grounds of temporary expediency, sac
rifices tho government itself to S question of its
administration.

Extract of a lettor from Washington Citv:
" The Locofocos here are getting desperate ;
they are disappointed that Texas will not carry
the people off I think from present prospects
that Mr. Clay will get more States than Harrison
did. I saw yesterday Mr. Crawford, one of the
Whig Electors from Georgia ; he says Mr. Clay
will carry that State by a larger majority than
Harrison got. Evety thing is right side up in
New York and Pennsylvania. You will see the
elections carried by tbe Whigs with a perfect
whirlwind,
- 'WOMAN'S CONSTANCY.
A man named Timothy Douard was horribly
mutilated recently by an explosion oo the Ger
mantown Railroad. A young girl to whom he
was) betrothed, no sootier heard of the accident
than she hastened into Philadelphia to the bos
pital, and has since continued to go backwards
4 forwards, ministering to bis wants with that
devoted attachment tbat woman only knows.
Although young, Douard is probably a cripple for
life, yet still, to her praise be it said, she continues
o f 1'Ag with a deeper feeling of love to. him,
like a'true-bearted woman. Young Douard is
poor, but hardworking man.- Such incidents as
these reconcile us to the numerous frailties of
human nature.
