The last "Standard" in an article. entSUl
" The Disunion Organs," holds the foregoing an-
The insolence, to say nothing of the falsitv. of!
the foregoing charge is so gross, that were itlnot '
stated that Whigs sustained the "Standard'! in '
.c tusauon, we snouia not take any notice of
it. We do not hesitate to pronounce the charge
untrue in loto, and to express our belief that! no
good and true Whig ever intimated that the course
pursued by this paper was unpatriotic or tended
to encourage " disunion." But if we should be
mistaken in our belief, and Whigs have made anv
such statements, as charged by the " Standard,"
then we have this to say : that the assertion that
this paper has, at any time, done anything to po
mote disunion sentiments come from what quar
ter it may is false and doubly false. We chal-
. . g - -
lenge the Editor of the " Standard" to produce a
single fact as evidence of the charge, or to pojint
out a single sentence that has appeared in our Col-
umns, that, by any sort of distortion, can be made
to favor, or has the slightest leaning to a dissolu
tion of the Union. We defy him to make good
his charge and we defy him to furnish the nabe
of a single responsible' Whig who has sustained it
in so libellous an allegation ! f
This is not the first time iu the history of Our
paper, that the Editor of the " Standard" has
charged us with unfaithfulness to the South. At
the time of the annexation of Texas the source
of all our present calamities the same charge
was made. When the Mexican war was forced
upon the country, for the acquisition of the very
territory the future condition of which is nw
threatening to rend the bonds of the Union asun
derour course subjected us to the charge of
" moral treason," and unfaithfulness to the Soulh.
We survived, however, and our predictions tAen
are history now. J
We are again charged with infidelity to Ihe
South, and with being hostile to the Union. And
how are we seriously to meet an accusation tjiat
is, perhaps, too contemptible to be thus regarded
unfaithful to the South? Is there any ques
tion of interest to the South, on which we have
failed to speak out ? Have we been silent on Ihe
question arising from the attempt to prevent the
people of the South from an equal participation
in all the rights of our common country ? Hive
we not uniformly resisted the passage of the Wil
mot Proviso 1 Have we not time aDd again de
manded a fulfilment of the guaranty of the Con
stitution in relation to the delivery of fugitive
slaves? We may not have been as rampant as
others in our determination to resist every aggres
sion on qur rights, but we commenced resistance
about asfsoon, and expeot to maintain that resis
tance fatly as long, as those who, in their rr)ad
and fiery zeal, denounce all as traitors who will
not join them in an unholy crusade against the
Union. 1
Butt we suppose we are blamed because wefae
sire to see the national difficulties adjusted Ion
terms honarable to both the North and the Sorjth.
This i the great sin we have committed, injthe
eyes of the " Standard." And has it come to tfiis,
that a man is to be set down as a " disunionfst"
must be taunted in the most offensive language,
because he wishes to see this glorious Union rlre
served, and peace and tranquility restored to ur
agitated and distracted country ? Are we td be
charged, with indifference, with unfaithfulness to
the South, because we dare to express the belief
that there is enough virtue and wisdom in !the
country to save the Union from surrounding rer
ils, and at the same time to maintain the honor
and defend the rights oflhe Southern people? I H
we are to be denounced for such causes, we shall
take no pains to shield ourself from denunciation.
If, for such reasons, censure and. abuse are to fall
upon our heads come from what quarters ttloy
may all we can say is: Let them come-ilet
them come, We love the South j we are as ar .
dently attached to her as any man who treads her
sunny '.soil, and will be as ready to ward oil the
blow ajnied at her rights and safety as any of the
more noisy and violent of her sons. We Were bOrn
and raised upon her soil. Our parents and our
kindred lie mouldering hi her bosom, and we trust
that, when we hare run our course, we may Re
pose" by their sides. But because we will pot
abandon our love of the Union, and repudiateall
exertions to maintain it, and unite in a wild and
reckless scheme which may result in its ruin, itve
are to be accused by these wretched Hotspurs and
fanatics; of disloyalty to the South. Out upon
such base and hoUow-heartedtaccusatioBs f j
We Have known , and felt the wrongs of he
South as keenly as others; but because we could
not agree to Jhe reme4yl-the Nash ville COnvfen
tioiwfftoposed for such wrongs, we are to I be
called "idisunionists." Very well, -; S

DEATH OF AIR. CALHOUN.

Mr. Butler announced the death of his collea
gue, the M Hon. J.,hn C. Clhaun, and proceed
ed to give a historical nd biographical account
of him, wi!l an eulogium on bis public and pri
vate character. v
Mr. B.ulpr closed by offering the customs ry
resolutions Jn honor of the memory of the deceas-
iMr. Clay rose, and in an impressive manner,
eulogized the character of th deceased stated
man. His Acquaintance with Mr. Calhoun com
inenced lhif,ty-tight years ago, in a time of great
political eaitement and public danger in the
iwelfih Congress, which presented a galaxy of
talent unequalled in our hinf.ry. Among those
eminent men vhnho coospicyously the etr which

If Mr. Calhourr had reachej the highest eleva
yation in thef pubiie service, for which he was em
inently fit, jhe country, he believed, would have
been safe urider his patriotic and able guidance.
In the order of nature, he, Mr C-y should have
preceded M4. Calhoun,, for I fe!, said Mr. C-y.

Charge larthlully our duties here, and he re dV
to resign life, with the composure that marked hi
end. ; -
Mr. Webber hoped, he said, that it would not
be deemed presumptuous in him to add a few re
marks. Hit acquaintance with Mr. Calhoun be
gan in Congress in 1811, He was of the same
age with h;tn, and during the whole per.ol 01
iheir services together, though sometimes de
greeing as tb questions of pub'ic poi.y, they
have been oti the best terms of personal inter
cnurse. j '
Mr. Webster proceeded to draw a strong and
vivid picture of Mr. C-ilhoaji'a moral and mental
qualities.. The Senatarial decorum and dignity
of Mr. Calhoun had impressed ua all, and never
more than wrjen, he last addressed us, in a tone
and manner thai but indicated' his physical weak

hour, reviewing in strains of affecting eloquence
the early life, the Bolipicai history, and the emi.

Mr. Wimhrop, of Mass., delivered a beautiful
eulogy upon the moijal character and gigantic
mind of the great manj who has just departed.
By bis decease, be said, a e.tar of the first magni
tude had brien struck from this sphere, and exal

could not speak of the grpat men of the South

with intelligence, without one indication or suf
fering or pain. I watched his countenance, and
the lustre of that bright eye remained unchang

it went out iri tnstantaineons eclipse. When I
removed my hand from closing his eyes, he
seemed as one falling into a sweet and refresh
ing slumber. Thus, sir, closed the days of
John Caldwell CalhounJ tne illustrious American
statesman.
An inscrutable Providanre has removed from

But it is not extinguished. From a height to
which the shafts of malice or the darts of detrac

gloriously sending its rays oyer a more extended
horizon, and blessing mankind by its illumination.
The friend of const itutimial liberty will go to bis
writings for truth and ta his life for a model.
PUBLIC MEETING IN RALEIGH.
At a large and respectable Meeting of the citi
zens of Raleigh and vicinity, without distinction
of party, held at the Town Hall, on Tuesday e
vening the 2d of Apriljat 5 o'clock, to give ex
pression to their feeling of sorrow occasioned by
the announcement of the; death of Johic C. Cal
Hocn, and to offer some -tribute' of respect to his
memory, on motion of iPerrin Busbee. Esq., the
Hon. James Iredell wadcalled to the Chair, and
Benj. B. Smith and WiUiam W. Holden, were
appointed Secretaries, j -
On taking the Chair ,Gov. Iredell spoke as fol
lows : j
Mr Fellow-Citizens : A most sad and mourn
ful event has called hs figeiher this evening. A
great man has fallen injour country ; one of the
most luminous intellects of the world has been ex
tinguished on earth forpver. John C. Calhouh
is dPad ! John C. Callionn. whose name is as fa
miliar to us as household words John C Cal
houn, who stood among the highest and proudest
of the eminent men of any country, is laid low in
tlw dust. While thousands and millions of our
fellow-citizens are lamenting this loss, it becomes
us, too, to offer a fit memorial of our grief and
sympathy. It was my fortune, in which I felt
both proud and gratified, to enjoy for some years
a social intimacy with this illustrious man. I
found him always mild, amiable, courteous ; in
deed, the perfect gentleman. I have always res-"
pected, admired, loved him. In all his domestic
relations he was distinguished for fits tender, af
fectionate dispositions. Notwithstanding the fierce
party strifes through which it was his destiny to
pass, the tongue of slander npver ventured to de
file the beauty of his private character. But I
do not mean to speak the eulogy of Mr. Calhoun.
I came "to bury Csesar, not to praise him." His
fame and reputation are spread throughout the
length and breadth of our land. Any effort, on
my part, even if I hadjthe eloquence ol Demos
thenes, to add to the splendor of his character,
would be as vain and idle as an attempt to inerease
the brilliancy of the beains of the noonday sun.
I am happy to have! heard by the Telegraph
to-day, that on yesterday, when the death of this
great man was announced in the Senate, his only
intellectual rivals in this country Mr. Clay and
Mr. Webster vied with each other in most elo
quent tributes to his character. It was Worthy of
them, and worthy of hibi.
I thank you, gentleman, for the honor vou have
conferred on me by calling me to preside over this
Meeting, and will no longer detain yoti from your
appropriate duties. j ,r
At the conclusion of the remarks of the Chair

" Jca.,a- "c,e"iereu congress in the celebrated
war session of 181 lf2 ; and though surrounded
by such men as Lowndes and Cheves as his col
leagues, and Clay, Randolph, and others as his
associates, be at once took a prominent and lead
mS Paj l" tUe. imPrtant discussious of the day.
e had served for two sessions in the Slate Le"-
Snre nVhuaLbrouht wUh him a hiSh repS
tation and that character he fully sustained fee
was placed second on the Committee of Foreign
Relations, then the most important CommiWof
the House The President's message detailing
our difficult.es with England, was of course refer
red to the Committee. They reported in favorof
meaSUres preparatory to war. The debate which
lollowed was one of the most interesting and ex-
-uug c.taracier it was opened by the Chairman,
Gen. Potter, followed by Felix Grundy, men of
high character ; but to Mr. Calhoun was assigned
the reponsible duty of answering Mr. Randolph,
the champion of the ami war party. This duty
he discharged in a manner which at once placed
him amongst the first men of the House and the
nation ; and that position he has maintained to the
present tune. He has filled the highest trusts of
Representative, Secretary of War, Vice President.
Secretary of State, and Senator ; and though it
uws 1101 oecome the occasion to detail the manner
in which he discharged their vanous duties, it is
sufficient to say he has, during the whoie period,
enjoyed the uninterrupted confidence of his con
stituents, which has increased with his age and
terminated only with his death. Nor has politcal
defamation at any time dared to cast a shadow on
his private character. His life has not been a neg
ative, but an active one ; nor his fame, like that
ol those which glitters in ihe morn, becomes dim
at noon, and extinct in the eve ; but it has increas
ed with his years, and will fill one of the highest
pages of his Country's history.
At the conclusion of Gen. Saunder's remarks,
Duncan K. McRae, Esq., rose and seconded the
Uesolutions, in a brief but eloquent speech.
The Resolutions were unanimously arlnma .
after which on motion of Mr. Busbee, the Meet
ing adjourned.

DR WEBSTER THE SENTENCE.
At the; close of the arguments of counsel on
both sides.in the case of Dr Webstbr. 'convkted
at Boston on Saturday last of the murder of Dr.
Pa rkman. Chief Justice Shaw, with much emo-
Hon, stated to the Prisoner iliat it t,;

to Say, Or anv er nlnaf ion

Professor Webster rose, and, in a very dis
tinct voice, maue a few remarks :
. B-ston April 1 Professor Webster was
broui'ht into Court tins morning in ..i...i.
fe . v j t vyv f .
and received the dread sentence of the law. Ii
was pronoum-ed by Judge Shaw, and closed as
follows;
You, John W. Webster, after a fair trial,
and with every opportunity for defence, have been
found guilty by a jnry of your fellow citizens, ol
having, on Friday, the 23d day of November, in
the year of our Lord eighteen hundred and forty-nm-
with malice aforethought, murdered Doctor
Geo. Parkman, in the private room, in the Medi
cal College in Grove street, in Boston.! It is now
the duty of the Court to pronounce upon you the
sentence which the law imposes upon such rrim.
It is therefore adjudged, declared, and comman
ded by this Court, chat you be taken hence by
the proper officer to the prison of the county.and
i here kept in close custody until such lime as the
Chief Magistrate of this Commonweal h shall by
hie official warrant appoint, when y.,u shall be
taken thence to the place of public execution.
nd there be hung by the neck until you are,
dead. And may God. in his infinite goodness
have mercy on your soul ! .
The prisoner heard the sentence with an un
blenched cheek, but, as it appeared to the eye . f
the spectator, with a troubled and saddened
heart.
He was immediately removed from the Court
to the prison, followed by the crowd, who were
curious to catch a glance of his face.
It is not supposed that the execution will take
plape very soon, as it is the desire of every one
to give the prisoner full ti ne to make his peace
Wji:h Heaven ; and that, if any one knows ought
which would lighten his crime, or remove the
charge from him, opportunity may be afforded lo
produce the testimony. '
