In the ibscrutable designs of an aU-mercifuI PioriJence, it has pleased Almighty God to put jaeodtojhe mortal existence or GENERAL ZACHAUY TAYLOR, late President of the biied States! His illness commenced on ji'rklay last, with an lack of ordinary Cholera Morbus, which ap- peared to yield to raedical treatment, but after jarJi assumed a 'different and fatal type. He ttfeaihed his last on Tuesday night, al half past o'clock. ;.. The Patriot, the-Hsmo.'the Chbistiaw is no :re! The event, from, its suddenness, seems most a terrific vision, at which the people stand WJ gaze in solemn amazement a drama of start- lioi grandeur, which the unlifted curtain has un- f .eipecieilty revealed to the wondering and ri vetted suits a an .assembled nation. Would to God, it were some coinage of the brain ! fothis great National bereavement, we cannot srinj ourselves to believe that any individual will tfase to sympathize, whatever may be his polit al creed. It is an event to touch the hearts of whole People, and History will embalm it. jits contemplation, all political prejudices wil .ne way an pariy oicKenngs bejeast aside and J asperity of feeling be, for the moment, fonrot ! en, in the reflections necessarily incident! upon appalling a calamity. It exemplifies most for- iD!r " what shadows we are, and what shadows ie pursue;" and teaches infatuated mortals, that " The Spider's most attenuated thread hand is cable to man's brittle tie! On earthly bliss." ." But liule more than one short year ago, amidst be breathless silence of aa immense multitude, riih clear and solemn voice, the illustrious man, iiciy almost a nation's idol, called God to wit is that he would discharge faithfully the duties if his l.igh office note, summoned to the pres uceof that God, he lies in the calm, deep slum- w, that knows no waking until the final day. ihose deeds of glorious service to his Country fiiich were familiar to the lips ol thousands, and lat fidelity to his Country's good, so fervently ipressed in his late illness, and, we believe, so en-ently felt these, and all else that graced his haracter, have followed him to the bar of the tdge! ( But, w;hile mourning for ourselves, there is no ause of tnourning on behalf of the deceased. fiie ray of his country's gratitude shone in full splen lorcn his departing hour.

Millard Fillmore? is em phatically a self made man. Of obscure1 paren- tage and humble circumstances in early fife, he j aalendn3en. of the Constitution is no party mat has won his way to fame and distinction, by force i tep 'hat it does not belong to the Governor that of indomitable exertion and the highest ofder of i talents. As a man of ability, he has few supen- ors in the Country; as a conscientious and high- mifded gentleman, he is no less distinguished- as a Statesman, he is, we firmly believe, patriotic conservative, national, in his views : while as a I trltig, he is, and always has been, the warm and i unwavering advocate of our cherished principles. There is consolation, in the midst of our $orrow, that the principles for which, as a Party, we have ' always-battled, willuffer no tarnish in the hands of Mr. Fillmore. There is no John Tyler in him ! who had invited him to a celebration in that City, on the 4th inst., going the rounds of the papers. It breathes the proper spirit for the crisis : Washisgtos, June ID, 1850. . Gentlemen : Your invitation to participate with the Democratic Whig citizens of Philadelphia, in their Festival, on the approaching anniversary of our In dependence, has been rtceivrd. Nothing could. I assure you, give me more pleasure than to; be per mitted to unite, on that occasion, with the Whigs of Philadelphia, in rendering "renewed demonstrations 0r attachment and fidelity to the Union."

Mrs. Webster declared her unwavering confidence in. her husband's innocence until he made the ad mission to Dr. Putnam, and averred; that it was through her persuasion that the petition for par don on the ground of entire innocence which he had previously sent to the Court, was drawn up; and presented. The council had consulted three eminent Surgeons, who gave it as their opinion that a blow struck with a stick like j the one de-t scribed in Prof. Webstei's confession, would not cause death in ten minutes. f he opinion is said to be universally expressed in Boston, that no commutation will be granted. j ; The Boston Transcript says that ja reconciliaj tion has taken place between Littlefield and the prisoner, and that a mutual wish forjan interview has been expressed, which the'sheriflj has consent ed to grant. - : , ' DEATH OF S.

Manly. Never before has any man, holding that high and re sponsible Office, been assailed with more partizan rancor. What has he done to call down upon his hjead such vituperation 1 Nothing nothing ! "the front of his offending is, that he is a Whig AND HAS BEEN FAITHFUL TO THE STATE AND THE Union ! : J ust as we expected and predicted,Mr. Manly's absence in the, extreme West has been seized up on as a Ct opportunity to put in circulation such misrepresentations of his opinions, and such per version of his past acts, as are calculated to do him injury in the Eastern section of the State. We have warned our Whig friends, heretofore, agamst these things, arid we again WARN them. ' In the last Standard, there is the "piling of Pel- ion upon Ossa" in the way of falsehood. That Mr. Manly was a Federalist in the war of 1812 that he is the nominee of a "Raleigh Clique," that the late Whig Convention was controlled by stich a Cliquf that his address was altered, and parts of it suppressed by such a ( it'ou? that he has been ready to surrender the rights of the South that he has affinities to free soilism that he is j "arraying the East against the West," that he is slandering Mr. JReidin charging, that he voted for the Oregon Bill, wi h the principles of the VVilmot Proviso in it these and such as these, are but slight evidences of the facility with which that paper can manufacture falsehoods, to suit the purpose it has in view the defeat of the Whig Candidate at all hazards and by any uiccms! 23ut there is one misrepresentation which we cannot permit to go unnoticed, viz : that Manly is advocating a change of the basis c Mr f re- presentation in tlie Commons and Stnat? ! Now we undertake to say, from all the infor nation we have received, that the Standard has most grossly distorted and falsified the facts. Gov. Manly stauds upon the Republican platform laid down by the Whig Convention, that the lt ls l'ie PE0FLE'S business, and that Mei and they alone nave the r'Sht to alter or ameud their funda- men,a 'aw, and that in this respect tlteir wishes should be consulted, and their will carried out ,bat ,0 ln's will, fairly and clearly expressed, ALL should submit ! Can any man object to this prin- c,P'e Is 11 not lQe foundation of all popular gov eminent? Is it not one of the most prominent features of our Bill of Rights? To submit all Questions which m;iy arise touching the amend meht of the Constitution, to the People, without distinction of parly, is the principle of the Whig Resolutions and the rrotind .tioon which. Gov J He deprecates now, as he did in 1B4Q, me mix ing up questions of Constitunotral reform with par typolitics believes, as his political friends do, that they should be kept aloof from such preju dices and extraneous influences, and left, each to be jdiscussed, and decided, upon its own merits, without the bias of any one man's or set of men's opinions, and without dictation from Candidates orfconventions, and that what alterations should be'made to the Constitution, is a matter in refer ence to which the Legislature or the People should firit move. that they are the sources of reform, ami that the Governor has no vote, should exercise no Legislative control, cannot arrest the passage o a law, or the Legislative will,and that if he attempts it, he is guilty of dictation. Can any man, in view of the character of our government, object to these principles t We should think not. Certain ly no Whig can gainsay them. ! But how really stand the facts as between Mr. riridzndMr.Manlu? In 1848, they were both nominated for Governor, each by his particular Party. Neither Convention, making such norm nations, recommended, or alluded in any manner whatever to, an amendment of our State Consti tution. Mr. Reid, upon his own responsiDiin ns 1P now Dretends. dragged into the Campaign the issue of " equal suffrage' as it was termeu . by w;m Hp had become, all ot a sudden, a ereat friend of popular rights claimed for htm self a marvelous degree ol credit tor nis issue, as some newly discovered panacea. He claimed to fee the champion of equal rights and political priv ileges. It was the object of Gov. Manly, (as welt as "the Whig press),distrusting the sincerity of Mr. R td, and believing that the manner in which the issue had been made up and was about to be used, would pervert the Constitution which should be the bulwark of our rights into the football oj parly it was their object, as it certainly was their duly, to expose the inconsistencies into which his new born zeal had driven him. He was lor amena- ihg therxnsiiTuTierrsoras toDreaKuown m perty qualifications for members of the Senate. This he called "equal suffrage." It was con tended by the Governor that this was not equal suffrage and to reach that object it would be ne cessary for Reid to go farther and break down the taxation basis of the Senate and the federal pop ulation basis of the House of Commons. He il lustrated this by citing the county of Hertford, which gave about 600 votes, electing a Senator, when the Counties ol Wilkes, Caldwell, Burke and McDowell, polling nearly 4000 votes, elected but one by which, one man in the former coun ty has as much political power as seven men in either of the latter Counties. We have before us now the file ol our paper containing accounts of various discussions of the Candidates in 1848, in which Mr. Manly used this illustration. He ci ted it to shew the demagoguism and inconsisten cy of Jleid' position. There was no concealment about these illustrations in 1848. They were used in the East as well as in the West aud no misrepresentation was attempted then in reference to them. But now the condition of things has been changed, and whilst Gov. M. is too far in the West to correct falsehoods about his opinions, and lies upon its motives, and the election is too near at hand to enable him to make his personal appearance in the East, the opportunity has been seized upon to misrepresent his views and falsify tacts. I But what else could have been expected from a priut that goes week after week to the RALEIGH, Nv C, JULY 17, 1850.: public laden with falsehood and misrepresenta tion 1 What else could have been exnected from a Candidate, who has given reapeated evidences that no reliance is to be placed in him 1 We intend next week to present this miserable artifice of Loco Focoism in y et a stronger light. We content ourselves to-day with simply brand ing this attempt to excite prejudices against Gov. Manly, as an underhanded movement, unworthy tne Mart or liana of an honorable man ! And as such, we call upon highminded men, East and West, to stigmatize U and U authors! KEEP THIS BEFORE THE PEOPLE ! Keep it before the People, that David S. Reid deliberately sacrificed the rights of the South, in voting for the Oregon Bill with the Wilmot Pro viso in it. The more this matter is looked into, the clearer becomes the proof that Reid voted lor the genuine Wilmot.Proviso, and under circum stances that made it an unmistakeablem inndt to the South. Let it not be forgotten, that he voted for the Wilmot Proviso and nothing else, and that his denial but adds to his guilt and increases the injury to the South ! Keep it before the People, that David S. Reid is in favor of the stand-still, do-nothing policy, that has prevailed in North Carolina for so many years past. He nas opposed every scheme of In ternal Improvement that has ever been adopted by the State. During his Legislative course, we have his recorded vote against every proposition to improve the condition of North Carolina, and the assurance now, that, had he been a member of the last Legislature, he would have voted a gainst the Central Rail Road. And yet, he has the impudence to say, that he is now.aiid always has been in FAVOR of a fair and judicious sys tem of Internal Improvements! Keep it before the People, that David S. Reid voted to keep upon our Statute Book the law by which " poor neighbor white men" could be SOLD! Keep it before the People that David S. Reid voted, while in Congress, for the odious and hate ful Jake Thompson Proviso ; that while he pre tended to pass a vote of thauks to the illustrious warrior, who has just closed his mortal career, he designedly voted to censure him, for his HU MANITY shown to the women and children at the taking of Monterey ! Keep it before the People, that David S. Reid is an arrant Demagogue. He has endeavored to make the people believe that he has always been in favor ol "Free Suffrage," even before he was a voter : and vet we find him. when a mpmhpr nf the Legislature, sitting quietly by, and seeing it tuicerenionwusly killed! Keep it before the People, that David S. Reid is infav rof drafting boys, tf 14 years of age, Jjy&SU? A R ' He calls Gov. Manly a Fwl. Keep it before'tjae People, that while David S. Reid pretends to be the People's candidate and the Poor Man's friend, his whole course as a public man "ives entire contradiction to such pretension. He has never yet advocated any measure, which entitled him to be called the friend ot the poor man ! Aad, lastly, keep it before the People, that Da vid S. Reid, allied with the "Standard," has de termined to use all sorts of means, except fair and honorable means, to defeat our excellent Govern or aud to ride into power! .' We warn the slaveioldors of the State that their vital interests are in jeopardy ; they have only to open their eyes and see that Abolitionism is rearing its horrid crest in their very midst!" jjast Standard. Yes and that too in the person of one David S. Reid, who helped the Abolitionists of the North to pass the Wilmot Proviso! Oh, that the people would " only open their eyes'' ! "He (Mr. Reid) wilj shake off these lies, as the lion shakes the dew-drops from his inane." Sta.idrd. While shaking, he had better be careful not to siflfccoff the " ItonV skin, and betray himself! " Irf teply, Col. Reid alluded to the courteous and respectful manner he had uniformly observed towhrdGov. Manly, and pronounced the charge thaiLhe had at any time voted for the Wilmot Pro viso, trs false as perdition, com fromwbat source it might." Standard. How decent and mealy mouthed the Organ is becoming! It is reported that Mr. Reid "pro nounced the charge," as false as H-U! Gov. Manly, of course, treats such vulgarity with con lemDt. and the People will rebuke such outrages from one who is soliciting their support. The " Standard" is " ashamed of its friends." A late number reported Gen. Saunders as having only said, " that they (the Democrats) woukl go, Sfc. rU JV"iJt. A ad ,"ioch liberties, too, with the General's language, after he had figured ill the saloons of " Isabel, the Catholic" ! " Recoguizing, as we do, no test for office but that of Democracy." Standard, So it seems. Fidelity to Southern interests is wo test, when " Democracy" is in fhe way ! j "And to complete the list of infamous mea sures against the South, New Mexico lias just set up for herself as a State, and excluded all slave holders from her borders !

The Loco Foco party is alone responsible for the whole of them, for they would take this territory, though admonished of the curses which would certainly cling to it! OS- A. II.

This distinguished Gentleman, who recently visited North Carolina for the purpose of recupe rating from the effects of the late abortion at Nash ville upon his nervous system, is Out with a letter in the "Standard," "defining his position" on the Missouri Compromise. That journal asks us to publish this'letter, and to do Father Abrara jus- tice. We will endeavor to comply with the lat ter part of the request, although we feel persuaded that so much compliance on our part will disap point the "Standard." Our task is not an easy one, however, for the letter in question is a very curious one a piece of Mosaic whether con- j sidered as a whole or in detail. As a whole, it seems to be a sort of admission that he may have said what was attributed to him, about the old line, viz : "that he would have his rio-ht arm torn u, aiciH, ueiore ne woujd vote tor tne Mis- j a new Cabinet willbe immediately formed eon soun Compromise ;" while it denies that he ever ' sistinsr. in nart. a ixn,, . I aim 11 aoout trie new one, that the Nashville Con vention recommended as the "price of peace." In one place, we are informed that "he uniformly declared" the old Compromise to be unconstitu tional, unjust to the South, and the cause of this ..... agitation now that the whole South in 1819 ought to have resisted it at all hazards." In an other place, " these are still ray opinions," he says, and notwithstanding the assertion, immedia tely afterwards declares " to his Constituents and to the world that the South can accept nothing less without degradation",'! What miserable stuff aud nonsense. I The truth is, Abraham has been so extreme and ridiculous upon this subject of Niggerdom, that even lut is getting ashamed of himself. Besides, that political panacea, the Nashville Convention, which was to have eradicated all the old diseases and constitutional taints in the body politic, and restore it to its former sound condition, prior to the year of our Lord 1819, has failed of its pur poses, and these political ultraists and quack Doctors who have been tampering with the con stitutional health of our political system, have been discovered at their tricks, and are now, ami a perfect confusion of dust and w rds, en deavouring to retrace their steps. No wonder then that We should find him, who is most garr ulous of them all, discoursing so incoherently and contradictorily. READ AND ANSWER! 1 Are you a Whig a North Carolina Whig ? !
