VIRGINIA ELECTIONS.
The " Richmond Enquirer" of the 28th ult. thinks
it vary doubtful, which party has carried the State.
Aa far as heard from, the Whigs have gained 9 mem

the writer himself, a man's public and not his pri
vate conduct, constitutes his qualification," (some
times aUs-qualificatioa f) for office." A close Ob
server" opens a tremendous battery on the Governor,
because "hs baa involved tha Stats in a heavy debt"
in buying in the Rail Road at a single bid, for $300,-
000, the amount of tha Bonds, and lbs interest there

large Stockholders, who wars standing by, would not
have Jet him. " The Governor by law was obliged to
make it bring the amount which it actually brought,
to wit, tba amount of tbs endorsed Bonds and inter-eU?-or
be was directed to bid it off for tbs Stats.
Does A close Observer" suppose that those gentle
man standing by, aud so deeply interested, would not
have run the road near to the required sum, and then
let it fall oo the Governor, who waa obliged by law to
make it cover the liability of the Bonds ?, There they
were, ready. Suppose one of them had bid $360,-
000 he knew it would not fall on his hands, because
the Governor waa obliged to make it bring at least
$303,000. The Stockholder then had it in his pow-
to make the Road bring $363,000. And the
"Clone Observer" may be. sure, that it would have
been done.
But the " Close Observer" thinks K would have
beeu so edifying,, for the Governor of the State to
ave chaffered and higgled, and when a Stockholder
bid $50,000, the Governor would have winked to
the Auctioneer, and said, ' Fifty thouaaud dollars
aud five cents" ; the crier dwells on the bid atjast
one hundred thousand dollars is bid by soma Stock
holder " aud five cents," says the Governor. Two
hundred thousand dollars is bid ; " five cents more,"
says the Governor. "Who's afeard! Go it boys '. You

MR. SHEPARD.
Thie candidate of tha Loco k'oco party for Govern
or, who is indebted for his nomination to tbs Editor
ef tbs " Standard," is said to be excessive in hie abuse
of tha Whig party, in all bit public Addresses, That
gentleman knows that ths Whig party deserve ne
abuse from him. He knows that a purer, a more pa
triotic party, never existed, than that which he new
deems il bis interest to attack. But a few years have
passed, since fie waa " one of them," and we call up
on bim now to say, whether he ever saw, or knew, of
any corruption, designed or accomplished, or even
talked about, among his Whig associates. Let him
pot his finger upon the rnau.or the act, or the design.
We challenge him to the proof.
Until Mr. Snsnan cams to reside in ths " Demo
cratic" County of Wee, it will not be denied, we
presume, that ha was a professed Whig. Put a change

ances, if any, were used for his conversion, he beat
knows. Oue thiug is certain lie waa a Whig, and
became a " Democrat" and was toon appointed by

of Wake, and had the glorious opportunity iu the Se

House Of Commons iu 1844, where he cut such " high
fantastic capers," that even his own party, (always
excepting the Editor of the " Standard,") were mor

things may happen without political dishonesty, but,

It will be seen by a notice of the Secretary, in this
! paper, that tha Commcnckiiixt of the University of
North Carolina, will take place on Thursday, the
4th day of June next. We do hop,-iat earnestly
that this annual opportunity of enjoying a rich Intel
Isctual treat, will become more and more fashiona

and we have no objection to faeh 'um, when its im.
pulses tend to our moral or mental culture. The at

If every friend of Education only knew, what an
effect is produced upon the Student by the conviction
that an interest is felt by the community, (especially
ths fairer portion ef it,) in the objects to which he is
devoting bia morning of life, it would, in the absence
of bigbei ; motives, be sufficient, of itself, to induce a
genaraf attendance at these annual festivals of learn
ing. , As We observed on a former occasion, when a
little younger than we sow are, it is the first young
buddings of fotps to a Collegian, to see on Commence
ment day, an ocean of bonnets and ribands, and the
banka of snowy gauzs wavingand rustling at his ap
pearance, as if the gentle South had breathed upon
a Wheat field ; but, I the full bloom of popularity,

the emotions that roU deep beneath the surface.
MR. misM&jfcoX -ttrSTRAVELS.
We learn from a friend, that Mr, ShCTard made
his stereotyped Speech at Columbia, Tyrrell, en the
day of appointment, and was replied to in gallant
style, by Mr. Halbe late member from that Coun
ty. The auditory consisted often Locos, aud about
two doxen Whigs I Ms. S. commenced hie address
by charging Gov. Graham with being partial in bis
efforts for Internal Improvements, saying that they
were confined to Raleigh and Hillsboro.' Mr. Hal-
sit reminded bim, in his reply, of Gov. G's. exer
tions in the U. S. Senate, iu favour of Nag's Head,
which, ouftaformant says, "seemed to take him all
abaek."
Mr. S. then got upon the Governor's bid about the
Railroad, but Mr. H. convinced the people, that ths
Act of Assembly left the Governor do discretion in
the matter. "
He then -took op the Tariff, and made a worse eut
than on State maiters. His principal argument waa,
that K oppressed the poor; and gavs no protection to
Agriculture, (he was addressing Farmers.) Mr. H.
replied most happily. Hs referred with great effect
to the fact, that Massachusetts alone consumes more
m the bread -etufB of the United States, than all Eu-
S --". .. ..
-pe, in consequence of ner citizens beiug-engaged in
Waaufoctares and Commerce.
This, of course, is a mere sketetoa ef our Corres
pondent's Letter. He adds a Postscript as follows :
" P. S. Mr. Shepard spoke at Plymonlh, Wash
gton county, and I understand from rood authority
hat be nads several Whigs."
Will the reader be good enough to compare this
lain statement of facts, with the " Standard's" boast
f last week, that Mr. Shepard had 11 broken down

may differ ! " A close Observer" would have clap
ped his hands for joy, at all this. But Gen. R. M
Saunuk.is, who has lately guit tjtese petty strifes, and
could speak the honest sentiments of his heart about
these things, a few days ago, pronounced this attaok
upon Gov. G. about his Rail Road bid, as a very con
temptible affair. He said publicly, and in the pre
sence of at least one distinguished Democrat, that
Gov. Graham had done right ; and he would have
(jesfl ashamed, for one, to have seen him bid for the
Road as for a horse selling at Auction. He said he
would support no man for Governor, who would use
such " miserable slang." That is what Gen. Saun
dirs called it the very word.
Neither " A close Observer," nor the Editor of
the " Standard," who vouches for bim, can attack
the authority of Gen. S,, for their Barnes are both
signed to a note of the 20th ult. asking him to a Pub
lic Dinner, in which they speak of their "apprecia
tion of bia high abilities as a Statesman, and his vir
tues as a man."
" A close Observer" says, that for two-and-a half
years, the State has been entitled to the income of
this Road, by a decree in W ake Equity Court ; aud
iu all of that time, " the Road has not paid the Stale
the first red cent." If the writer means that the
Road baa not paid a good many red tents to the State,
within the latt two yean and a-half, he had better
observe a little more closely , out of regard to his own
character for veracity. The Road hat paid monies
to the State, and monies too, which,accrued before
the sale of the Road to the State. What " A close
Observer" means, is difficult lo learn j but ihe means
that the State has received no monies from the Road,
arising from profits made, before the State made the
purchase, he is quite mistaken. In making heavy
charges, the " Close Observer" should be quite sure
of hit fact ; and also, that his opinions and personal
criticisms, should so far resemble those of sensible
men, aa to screen himsell from ridicule and contempt.

THE RIGHT PLAN.
The names of a Bumber of prominent Whigs in
Rutherford Ceunty, have been presented as suitable
Candidates for the Legislature. It is evident that
union canuot be obtained without a County Conven
tion, and we are happy to see by the last number of
that genuine Whig Journal, the " Rutherford Repub
lican," that this course has been resolved upon.
When a nomination is once made, let the past be
torgotten, and every Whig put his shoulder to the
wheel.

MILLLRISM.
We hear Utile about this ism now-a-days. Occa
sionally the passing news affords us a developement
of the fruit which the corrupt tree has borue. We
learn from the Springfield Republican, that a Miss
Gleason has been arrested in that town and commit
ted to jail, on a charge of stealing $40 dollars from a
Millerite sister, Miss Sarah Granger. As we under
stand the story, it is this : Louisa end Sarah, both
maiden ladies of no particular age, became enamor
ed of Mr. Miller's doctrines, and embraced the theo
ry of the speedy consummation of the world's histo
ry. They subsequently fell iu love with each other,
and fearing that time would not afford them an op.
portunity of making any other disposition of their
love, they entered into a domestic co-partnership, and
took each other for better or for worse. Sarah was
tfte richest, and physically the w eakest. She had
some property ; and by mutual agreement she was
to furnish capital, while Louisa Was to do the house
work ; and the profits that is, as long as time and
the money should last were to be divided equally
between the two. Finding, however, that Father
Miller's predictions as to the end of the world, were
not likely to be verified, Louisa's temporal hopes
began to revive, and she deserted her advent sister,
taking With her $ 10 of the root of all evil, being the
whole of Sarah's available pecuniary interest in this
world's goods. Sarah, coming also to the belief that
the money might be of some earthly use, caused the
faithless Louisa to be arrested ; who, unless it should
turn out that she committed the unnatural ded iu a
somnambulic sleep, will probably have to undergo,
within the cool walls of a prison, the penulty ot the
law in such case made aud provided.

False Rumor. A rumor has spread through
the country that the small pox is in Greensboro1.
The village has lived down too many glanders of
a similar character to be lonrf injured bv thia false
report. No plape between the ocean and the topi
01 me joiue natige tint enjoyed a better state of
health than Greensboro' does at thia moment, and

A Figure or Speech In the laudation article
of tba Union, on the subject of the Notice, we
find the following ;
"The stone which the President's message, by
a fling, cast on the top of the Rocky mountains,
but which congressional procrastination suffered
to roll almost to the bottom, is once more raised
to the top. There on a rock stands the Chief
Magistrate, a man of peace and slow to anger."
Now what business the President has to be
throwing atones up the Rocky mountains, and
then to be standing up there on a rock, is more
than wo can divine ! Ale jr. Gai.
