Perhaps the most imposing of the many interest

the assemblage of the Sabbath School Scholars of the
Presbyterian, Methodist and Baptist Denominations,
in the Presbyterian Church, for the purpose of lis

the Rev. Mr. Bcrton; of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. The spacious Sanctuary was filled to over
flowing, with the beauty and intelligence of our City,
to hear the Reverend Speaker on this important sub
ject of Sabbath Schools. And most amply were they
rewarded for their attendance, if deep pathos of
thought, high, intellectual refinement of language,
and happy and appropriate introduction of simile
and contrast, could accomplish it The topics selec
ted by the Speaker, were, the improvement and
march of mind, and the moral culture and education
of the heart Upon the former subject, he said the
youth might well join in the prrfyer "Give me

H. W. Miller moved the appointment of a Com
mittee of five persons, to report Resolutions for the
consideration of the meeting. The motion prevailed,
and the Chair named as the Committee, the follow
ing gentlemen, viz : Henry W. Miller, Hon. James
Iredell, Weston R. Gales, Stephen Stephenson, and
Dr. H. W. Montague.
After a. short retirement, the Committee reported
through Mr. Miller, the following Resolutions, viz:
Resolved, that we, voters of the Sixth Congres
sional District of the State of North Carolina, be
ing assembled in the City of Raleigh on the 3d day
of July 1847, do hereby nominate Major General
Zacharv Taylor, of the State of Louisiana, the
gallant Hero of Palo Alto, Resaca. Monterey, and
Buena Vista, as a Candidate for the Presidency of
the United States, at the next Presidential Election,
and we believe that by his distinguished public ser
vices, his ardent patriotism, his readiness at all times
to sacrifice his comfort, and peril his life for his
country, he has entitled himself to the gratitude
and support of the whole American people.
Resolved, that should Uen. Taylor be elected to
the hi eh office of President of the United States.
his sterling abilities, incorruptible integrity, and
true independence and firmness of character, afford
the most ample guarantee, that h will act, through
out the performance or that important public trust,
with a view to promote the interest and honor of
the Country and the whole Country.
liesoiiea. that we nave witnessed with the highest
gratification the enthusiasm with which the nomina
tion of General Taylor for the Presidency has been
received, in all sections of the country, wheresoever
such nomination has been made, and we hail it as a
sure indication, that if his friends prove as true to
him, as he has been to the country, be will be eleva
ted to that honorable station by the overwhelming
roice of the Nation.

" THE STATES OF THE UNION 1
the adamantine fetters of hopeless poverty, deprived Session of Congress, to fix a vote of censure upon
of the higher and nobler enjoyments of soul to be
drawn from the rich wells of intellectual research,
and which can be secured only by delving with un
tiring industry for the bright gems of literature
which lie hidden deep beneath the surface of the
maxy mounts of that eminence where uFajnes proad
temple shines afar'., And asthe inhabitants of the
torrid clime of the Cae of Good Hope, bowed down
and oppressed by the enervating suns of that re
gion, are rendered callous, indifferent, profligately
idle amid their luxurious indolence and ease; so,
likewise, with those who are nurtured in the lap of
independent wealth,- sensible of their affluence and
feeling totally above the need of effort y they relax
into indolence and supineness, and from such nurse
ries rarely, if ever rise that species of intellect which
adorn our Councils, " charm listening Senates," or
by their brilliant military achievements spread a
blaze of glory around the proud fame of their com
try. The necessity for Effort, is the Crucible
through which the master spirits of mind will ever
be tried and purified, and the lustre of a Nation's
character be maintained and adorned. The parts of
his Address to the Teachers and Pupils were admi
rable and to the pointj and the whole, of rare excel
lence and beauty. :
The sounds of gay piusic from the City Hall, at
about 8 o'clock, P. M, gave notice that the " Ral-
ticm Tetot a lers," were preparing to commeuce
their part of the exercises of this great gala-day.
The large Hall was immensely crowded, and at about
9 o'clock,the auditory was addressed, we understand,
by Mr. William H. Campbell, in a manner which
did great credit to his taste and intellect The sub
jects of his Address were choice and well-selected,
clothed in patriotic sentiment, and abounding in ar
dent and invigorating feeling. The cause of Tem
perance w,as amply sustained too, we learn, in the
remarks of the young orator, and the effort in gen
eral, one upon which his friends may with pride
-congratulate him and themselves. The Address
was warmly received and rapturously applauded, and
we doubt not all were delighted with the intrinsic
excellence which we are told it possessed, as well as
with the happy and unsophisticated manner in which
it was delivered. This being over, the party pro
ceeded to demolish the " good things" prepared for
the occasion, and we have no doubt, that ample jus
tice was done to the! delicious Lemonades and Ice
Creams which were; circulated in great profusion
among the large Assembly of whom, we learn, per
haps two-thirds were of the " fair sex.": The even
ing's entertainment was closed with a " trip upon
the.hght fantastic foe," and the hilarity and mirth
of the occasion was enjoyed to the fullest extent by
every one present. x
The Fire Works at the Capitol Square, too. at
tracted hundreds of admiring spectators ; and it is
no small compliment to our friend, Mr. William H.
H, Tucker, to say, that his efforts on this occasion,
to please, exceeded any of his former brilliant dis
plays. We would like to particularize some of the
magnificent peices exhibited, especially those which
displayed in letters of fire, the 'names of Buena Vis
ta, Bryan, Bragg and, Taylor, surmounted with min
iature artillery, which threw in rapid succession
their fiery ."grape shots high above the heads of
the delighted throng ; but our limits admonish us
that we should forbear, and must therefore, be con'
tent with simply saying, what we know every one
who witnessed them will endorse, that the enterpri
sing getter-up deserves and receives their unquali
fied thanks for his most successful effort to 'contri
bute to our pleasure and amusement. Th e loud Ar
tillery proclaimed the close of the Exercises of the
day, and thus ended the gay festivities of the Na
tioxal Anniversary of 1947
General Taylor, for the capitulation at Monterey,
which act of capitulation was -sanctioned and ap
proved by the ablest officers rh his army : And; had
such a proposition passed Congress, it would have
been an act of the blackest ingratitude to General
Taylor, and most injurious, if not degrading to our
.National character.
J2mmJ,, That as American Citizens we, are
proad of the character and fame of "Xacharv Tav-
lor. We are proud to know that, amidst every
danger when surrounded by the moat appaliug dif ,
ficolties when neglected by hia own Government
when assailed by partizan presses and demagogues
when threatened with being supplanted for party pur
poses in that command in which he had won so much
glory for his. Country, he iweiykd not from, the
performance of ma duty th uo difficulty, danger,
or ingratitude could daunt him, but that he went
forward with a resolute heart, and relying upon his
own genius, and the indomitable courage and patriotic
devotion of his gallant little army, achieved a victory
on the plains ot Buena Vista which struck terror into
th enemies of hia Country and commanded the ad
miration of the civilized world.
Resolved, That we recommend to those through
out the State, who are friendly to the election of
General Taylor to the Presidency, to hold meetings
and give public expression to their opinions, and that
they be requested to appoint Committees of Corres
pondence. .
Resolved, That the Chairman of this meeting ap
point a Committee of thirteen, to be styled the Ex
ecutive, Committee for the County of Wake, whose
dutyjt shall be to promote and carry out the objects
of this meeting.
rrenously, however, to reading the Resolutions,
Mr. Miller, in strains of commanding eloquence,
and cogent reasoning, assigned the reasons why they
should be adopted. A better political speech, for
such an occasion, was, perhaps, never delivered. A s
soon as he concluded, and the Resolutions were read,
E. B. Freeman moved that they be adopted by ac
clamation, whereupon the enthusiasm could no lon
ger be restrained, and .three loner, loud, deafening
cheers were given for Old Zack.
On motion of Mr. Gales,
Resolved, That the President of this meetinir
communicate to Gen. Taylor, a copy of the Resolu
tions just adopted, accompanied by a letter, expres
sive of the grateful feelings entertained for him by
this meetingjand of the enthusiasm felt in his behalf.
Henry 1. 1 oole, of Edgecomb (a Democratic can
didate for Congress in this District,) being loudly
called for, rose and addressed the meeting at con
siderable length, avowing himself a Taylor man, out
and out, without caring what his politics are, u If"
said he, " he is good enough for the Whigs, he is
good enough for me."
un mouou oi jacob aioedecai, tne thanks or the
meeting were voted to the Officers ; and, on motion
of Johnston Buses e, the meeting adjourned.
