The "Standard" is anxious to have an exores- sion of our opinion concerning ivhat it is pleased to term the recent ,disorr:irfuI Pn,nT? ;n ,ua State of New York. In answer to all its clamor. we ask attention to the following facts, for the forcible-presentation of which, we are indebted to a Virginia J j J, ' At the lale conference oi Whisr deleorntes at Albany, it was agreed that a State Convention should b heid at Syracuse on the 1 1th of Sep tember next, (the day after lhe Dejuocrntic Con vention) for the purpose of nominating State offi cers. The platform agreed upon has been the 8'ibjcctof Locofoco censure; jirst at the inoment too, that John Van Buren and other prominent Freo-soilers have been invited to Tammany for the purpose of amalgamation and a reunion of "black spirits and white .fi i Ai d what is it, by lhe way.the Democratic bab-. biers call asurrender Ii is simply the acknowledg ment of an abstraclibfr the right to discuss any ineasure of public int'resl the very right which the Southern Pemocrats are now using jind en joying to'the largest extent even to the extent ol aitempiing to dissolve the Union. And this right is exercised unrebuked, without even a breath of censure from the grumblers at Whig opinions. The committee at Albany ljave ngrued upon nn unqualified commendation of the course and policy of the Administration. And what is that policy? Mr. Fillmore in his annual message has expressed it in plain and unequivocal terms, so far as re. gards the hitherto-exciting topics of the day. Let him speak for himself : ''The series of measure to which I have allu ded are regarded by me as a settlement, in princi ple and substance a final settlement of the dan gerous and exciting subjects which they embraced. "By that adjustment wa have been rescued from the wide and boundless agitation that surrounded us, ami have a firpjf distinct and legal ground to rest upon. And the occasion, I trust, will justify me in exhorting my countrymen to rally upon and maintain" that ground as the best, if nol the only means, of restoring peace and quit to the country, and maintaining inviolate the integrity of the Un ion." Can anything be plainer or more emphatic 1 In commending the President's measures, thus en forced, could his best friends ask a-more complete and perfect triumph ? He has declared the Com promise a "final settlement" of the slavery agita 'ion by Congress, and he exhorts his "country men to rally upon and maintain that ground? The opposition Whigs of New York have sur rendered, and ex passed their willingness to noiie upon that basis nJetetl authorized, from th.is declaration, to jirolahft&tiat the Fugitive. laye bill, as one brar.cb of trie Compromise, cannot ie disturbed during President Fillmore's continuance in office, either during his present lerm or another, If tKA Wrmrv'A oli.iil on 1 tut film Then we have a safe, and reltablerahdniiinch. ing President in the chair of State, whose acts speak for themselves, and have won for hkn un qualified approbation from the conservative por tion of the people in every pari of the country. The Southern Whigs have themselves teen agree ably disappointed, the candid Southern Democrats are disarmed, and honest men in every quarter forced to admit that Millard Fillmore is a national President onewbo stood by the Constitution in the darkest time of peril, and one w ho has now no motive but to maintain gloriously, under thp flag of our Union, all the great principles incul cated and enforced by Washington and Madison. The day has gone by -for produci ng any effect by the Loeofoco humbug of a "Fillmore surren der to Seward." Just the reverse is the fact. The National Whigs of New York have had a signal and glo rious triumph over the u Wooly Heads." The Compromise measures arc everywhere, except in South Carolina, acknowledged to be unassailable and paramount. And the President has the nerve to maintain his position under all circumstances. Who can aek more? SYMPATHIZING MEETING IN NEW YORK The Cuban syropatlrzers of New York held a mee ting in the Park on Friday evening last, to express their iudignatioii at the duijrec of the Spanish authori ties, as well as that of our own Government, in re gard to repent events in Cuba. E, F. Plkdv presided. The speakers were Captain Rynders, Thomas a ' Carr, Judge Green, of Cincinnati, Mr. Reed of New Orleans, and Mr. Price, of Kentucky. Having adop ted a series of inflammatory reso'utions.the meeting adjourned. As a sample of the spirit of the meetingr it may be stated that Mr. Carr. in (he course of his address, stated to the crowd that later intelligence had been received from Cuba than that contained in the newspapers, which was, that "Gen. Lopez had gained a conquest so great that there was nc hope of stopping the progress of liberty there." This was re ceived with l ud bursts of applause. The cause of liberty, ha fcaid, was spreading from Cuba to Mexico, and he predicted that in less than one year the whole Continent from here to Patagonia, by G d, would belong to the United States.' Of the Massachusetts Democracy the Wash ington Union tays: Thp. annunciation bv tho Democratic party in Mas sachusetts of acquiescence in the Compromise, and of a determination to maintain it, will be most gratifying intelligence to the great body of the party in all sec tions of the T mou. We should think it would be much more gratifying to 'the rarty,' if the Massachusetts Democracy' would not send to the Senate such Freesoilers as Sumner and to the House, such as Robert Rantoul and Horace Mann.

The idea hat the " Standard'V-the raouth-pieee of that fraction of the Democracy, who contend for the right of Secession,' and pre fer even Disunion to a denial of that right should lecture the organ of the "National Democ racy" upon the impropriety of its course, as c ilcn lated to destroy the unily of the party, struck i s as no less ludicrous than the famous protect of John Van Buren, during the last Presidential cam paign "why would Gen.

From the ''Washington Union." THE RALEIGH STANDARD AND OUR SELVES. We rejjre.t to find an article in this democratic paper which falls far shon of our estimate of what is due to the gre.it questions involved in lhe par ly rela'ions of the country. We reler to the ar ticle of ihp 23d insiant.in which the editor remarks lhat "the Washington Union newspaper has been oj but little, it any, service to the Siate dunnc the late ca npairrn and. indeed, tha I iiniy ki una i impression of many of our Iriends is. that it has raiher crippled and injured us in our efforts against the common adversary. , That paper has been and itflw, l iking part wiih Cobb and Foote, against McDonald and Quitman , and we do not remem ber to tiaveseefl at any lime in its columns a defi nite and correct statement of the positon of the democracy, or nl the Suih generally, in relation to lhe so'called Compromise." This is not quite as harsh a criiicis.n as that .be stowed bylheuvotved organ of the secessionists here upon our introductory address. We were then denounced as having separated entirely from the democratic party, b cause we i reared the Cum promise as such a settlement of the slavery ques lion as should prevent the future agitation of that subject. Eu: we were not driven, from Ihe field by such-denunciition ; nor do we feel that the impartial judgement of the great ! oJy of the dem ocratic pny wiU concur in the opinion entertain ed by tr;e Raleigh Standard of our efforts. Ir has bt en the aim Tof-ihe -Wahin2ton Union toieconcile thefcotMUrv: fo lthT&mproruise, not at a mfs-urepineKi in ait lis -uerail, or oe Ol full justice to the South, but as ajrainst which no complaints could be made to justify tho extreme, action urged by :-'outh Carolina, and ihose lead ers at the Nashville convention who insisted on the immeciaie forma:i n of a southern confedera cy. The execution of the fugitivr-slave law was the feature in lhat measure lo be insisted on as lhe condition of ihe preservation of the Union , and it has been insisted on by us in such terms of ear nestness and justice as our humble abilities could employ. In doing this, we have certainly abstain ed trom all such loeic as (hat which has been em ployed in demonstrating that the Compromise was a fraud or a cheat, by vvhich ihe Norili gamed ev erything and the South nothing. IJ tais had been true, all tbe southern members who voted for that measure deserved to be banished from the confi deuce of their constituents, ai.d the measure itself ought lo be st Jl expunged from the records, by drawing black Jiues around lhe journal which Contains i, as was done once before on a meniora ble occasion. It seemed to us to be vwre consistent wi h patriotism and truth, aud with tlie dignity of the democratic cause, lo do juslic- to thr able and experienced men who votedfor lhe measure .s the best thin a that could be done to allay excitement, and to disarm those agitators, Norili and South, who aim.d really at the destruction of the Union. We entered our protest at the time against such doctrines, (Secession, &.c.) and can never be brought to believe that rhey are compatible with lhe State rights taught by Jefferson and Madison Is it for insisting that the democratic party must niiiinlain lhe Compromise, and I adhere to the Counsels lefi by ihe patriots of lhe revolution , lhal the Kaleigh standard has taken olience at our labors? Such would seem lo be the case from the only specification ii has been pleased 10 present as eviuence of the inadequacy of ur labors in the democratic cause. I Ins specification is lhat we are friendly to lhe elections of Cobb and Foote, and nol 10 those of McDonald and ttuitman. Be fore this specification can be made available to an impeachment of our labors, it is incumbent on the j accuser to show that Messrs. Cobb and Foote are I not good democrats, and that iheir defeat is ne- cessary to tl t successful protection of the rights of ineootiin. in oilier worus, me tiaieign csiauuarq must show the democracy is safer in the hands of t hose modern lights in the South, w hich reflect the views of Messrs. Chevesand Rhett, than in those which warn us, as Mr. Jefferson did, to preserve the constitution in all its vigor, and to regard the will of the majority, constitutionally expressed, as the law fn m which there is no appeal but to Uic prjncip e ol force or revolution. We stand where Jackson did when he said our federal Union must be preserved not opposed to State rights, or to the reserved sovereignty of the States or the people, but anxious 10 correct the tendencies of our ry stein to impair those rights, by the mild and peaceable means created by.the rights themselves, and necessary to their preservation. Bui we are unwilling to suppose lhal the Ral eigh Standard, although dissatisfied with our course,can desire to break up the democratic party, because a mall fraction of it, regard ng the Com promise a serious injury to the South, is anxious 10 make it the occasion oi asserting a principle of the American r lag, and was placed in ihe city whieJi can have no other effect at this moment ; prison as a place of safety. The Liberators be than fb weaken he bonds of our Union. This ! t ame clamor us, and demanded that the Spanish principle is that of peaceable secession, with or Without cause, at the pleasure of a Stale. All admit that, if the grievance is intolerable, the right to get rid of it exists, and is jnalienabl , whether as applied lo individuals or States The only in quiiy, then, js, Is ihe Compromise such a grie vance?

Common sense an swers No! And we roust be permitted to indulge tbe belief that our attempt to shield tbe democratic party from ine consequences of such assumption, 3 although it iias nol secured us the good opinion of :. I the IviletU Standard, has been responded to by CAROLINA' GAZETTE. thegreai body of our friends with satisfaction, and with assnra ces, bulb us to the past and future, which will I avt vs no tame if regret. ANOTHER ABOLITION OUTRAGE! A friend in Ashe County of high character, and whose statements may be implicitly relied on. lias communicated to us for publicatiou an account of an Abolition outrage which recently took place in Gray son County, Virginia, near the North Carolina line. It seems that Crooks and Bacon have been preach - j ing their abolition doctrines in Grayson Couuty for a. 'ue time pa-t, and have converted to their doctrines and preyed into their service several cit.zens of that County. Thi'J at leDgth succeeded in forming a com pany of slave?, todc?rt tueir masters and escape to a free State.

A force of abaui fif ty pelicemen are on the ground endeavoring to restore peace. - The cigar shops kept by the Spaniards)!) differ ent parts of the city were destroyed during last night. The most painful part of the affair remains to be told. The Empire City brought therema ins of Col, Crittejoden nephew of Attorney-General Crittei den) and Capt.

He always appears as the wounded "Don," and goes through the same performance without alteration of iheroie. The last notice we have seen of him' is contained in the following amusing extract from a letter fo the Mobile Her ald, written from "Hollywood," a delightful wa tering place on Mobile Bay. No one who has ever seen him can fail to recognize the portrait : Rich. IVhig. " Ifl h id the time, I ha ye the material to inter est you wi h many amusing incidenis, which have already occurred since hiy visit to ihe eastern shore. For lhe present one must suffice. Jusi iwo weeks ago a distinguished guest arrived at Hollywood, and was registered "Don Carlos Va lencia' His foreign air, brunette complexion, beauill'ul imperial and moustache, and gallant mein; soon won lhe aJmiraiion of tlie B'bys gen erally, and the young ladies in particular. No wonder, for as Shakspeare, through Ophelia, said, he was "The glass of fashion, and the mould of form , The observed of all observers." He exhibited resiimonials of distinction and ere- denla , honof J? integrity and renown ; such lor sooth as Santa Anna and Gov. Quiinian "the latier of whom "' granny anu noDly spared his life nt lhe haute oi era Cruz, wh-n under the sword of a brave Mississippi He represented himself -s having been a lieutenant under Aiista received a lance in the side, the wound from which had not yet healed; it was still ulcerating and bleed ing. His lungs were known noi to be vigorous, but it was hoped, especially by the ladies, that they were not 'seriously diseased. ' But a few days ago he had a hemorrhage, which, mi a. anon ierjou, mrew us almost into a par- cxysm of despair. He became verv feeble and Plebeians stood aghast and mourned the unhappy lale whicli excluded tbem from a participation in joys so unspeakable, while the "Brunimels" of Europe, and the Est, and the upper lens of Mo bile and New Orleans, revelled in the luxuries and entertainments, the feast of reasun and the flow cf soul, furnished by lhe F Etranger dislingu?. Jusi as admiration' reached its summit, and the ladies had perlected their preferences, other visi tors, b ith known and unknown, arrived. Of these were Mrs. L, and daughter, who recognised his honor, having seen him in ail his phases in Rich mond and Fayetteviile also, Mr S. of New Or j leans, at wvhose house he had spent a season, aud Mr. . ' . who knew him well in the city of Vera Cruz. They soon discovered lhat the "Don" was the hero of Holly woodt and could not fail to observe that the cunning little archer Cupid had thrown from the bow or "mouftacfte'' of their fa mi iar Mexican acquaintance, some fatal shaft. A first l hey were loth to speak ; but soon it was seen that envf and jealo sy were possessing the minds of his numerous air admirers, and lest they might result in hatred and strife, it was thought advisable, at once, to unmask the lmpo-ter! To lhe profound astonishment of all Holly wood and the overwhelming mortification of the ladies the 'gallant Lieutenant," the friend of Arista and Q,uitman, and the '-heroof-' Hollywood," turned out to be a Vera Cruz "Barber! !" m Mrs. D. knew that he was published in Ricli mond and Fayetteviile as an impostor. Mr. S. was minus a gun, which be accused the barber of -ho king." Mr. -, had had a loleraole shave and shampnomng by the distinguished gen tleman in his shop in Vera Cruz. The hemorr hage was an artificial fluid which he swallowed and vomited at pleasure, and the wound from the lance was a sound spot covered with plaster, bes meared with an artificial fluid which resembled unhealthy blood, and the outpourings of an old ulcer, and the paroxysm was a well acted panto mime : Presently, 'L 'Etranger Distingue" 'decamped,' without sett ing his bill, thus leaving poor Free man, as well as certain misses and-maids, 'to mourn his loss. His departure was sudden and mysterious. The Hejen had not borne him away, and tlie coachmen declared that he did not take the stage There were a thousand conjectures wiih regard to his whereabouts, borne thought lie bad follow ed into the vast deep the famous tribe of Abori gines, and doubtless expected the addition of an agreeable note to the mystic music of bur choral waters. Others thought he had vanished, as did the sweet with odors which he had been invigorated. and toe regaled, on a memorable occasion above referred to. A friend was on the point of writing hisobi u ary; but the return ot the coachman this morn ing rendered it unnecessary and put an end to conjecture- The delicate Valencian, tho "wounded and bleeding" tieuteaant theCa-tilian consump tive "the beautiful, darling Don," had walked thirty-six miles (he qigbl of his departure, and was still playing his tricks en route, to Pensacola, on strangers. "Sic transit gloria mundi." May we not profit by this affair! It is hoped that the ladies will learn an important lesson from the forcible moral taught them ia the4f"Story of the Don." rp ITIIL.es A.
