W yf ill show our love for South Laroli os, not by running off to some new country but Vf itring, and dying here and teaching ourbildreii to remain here alter we are dead and gone. Instead of going to the North to soend our money and our summers, we will visit the mountains of our own be loved Siate, and build cottages ihere, and live there during the hot and sickly teason. We will learn to manufacture and import our own goods, and raise our own horses and hogs, so that we may be neither dependent on the North or the West. i The effort to destroy the Union and form a Southern Confederacy, by appealing to the fears of the slaveholders, and telling them thai their, property is m danger, has signally failed, and they never can be excited to the same madness again. The people have dis covered, and will discover, that the great ob ject of secession was disunion, not the de fence and security of slavery. The institu tion of slavery was made, or attempted to be made, the means of accomplishing this great and cherished object of the secession ists fit was well known that nothing could divide the Republic but this great interest, and that nothing less would unite the South in opposition to the Federal Government. Hence it was seized hold of, with ?uch avid ity, by the disunioniits, per te. They soun ded the alarm, and continued to agitate and agitate, after all danger was over. The effect of the storm which we have jest passed, not only in South Carolina, will tend ro strengthen i he Federal Union. The people throughout the southern States will hereafter be more on their guard against all insidious attacks on the existence of the Re public. A great Union party has sprung up in all the southern Stales, composed of an overwhelming majority of the people of each State, who will not hereafter permit a march to be stolen on them by an appeal to their fears: This storm, too, has had a most salutary influence .'at the North, and has taught the northern people ibe danger of interfering, in the slightest degree, with the institution of slavery. ! 1 bey now see bow sensitives the otubern people are on this subject, and how easily they are stirred up to madness by the least interference with their constitutional right. ; Already the northern people have commenced fighting our battles, and an over whelming majority ot them are disposed to stand ty: the Federal Constitution and the Union of the States. They have a deep in terest in the preservation of the Union. This they know and teel, and will observe and re member: This storm, too, will have a most salutary influence on the legislation of our country. We shall never see Congress again spending a large portion of the session without organ izing and being ready to iransact the busi ness of the country. Hereafter it will be the great object of all the patriotic members of both Houses of Congress, from the North and the Souths the East and the West, to abstain from all questions touching the subject of slavery It is true these questions cannot be excluded from either House. The abolition ists Of the North, and disunionists of the South, will.no doubt, continue to thrust these subjects before Congress, but they will meet no countenance from the wie, and virtuous, and patriotic. "All the questions likely to come before : fJoogressconnected with slavery have alrea dy been settled. The question of slavery in the Territorries is settled forever. The ter ritorial governments are expressly prohibited by the Compromise from legislating, on the subject. . The admission of new States into . the UiHon is likewise settled by the Compro mise, and they come in with or without slave ry, as they please. The capturing of fugi tive slaves is likewise settled, and the Presi- ! dent is clothed with the whole military pow er ot ine country to maintain the constitu tional rights of the South. Slavery in the uisinct oi uoiumbia is the only chance that the abolitionists can have for agitating this question. The Federal Government must necessari ly, confine it legislation to foreign affairs, and leave to the States the entire control of their domestic concerns. What a beautiful system of government we live under. A National Legislature to watch over the com mon, interests of the whole country, and - thirly-gne State governments to regulate the ' internal affairs of their respective States. A Houseof Representatives in which th peo ple, me sovereign people of the United States, are all, whether fich or poor, equally represented. And a. Senate in whicn the States the sovereign States of the Confeder acy, whether great or small, are all equally , represented. The executive combines the two bases of representation, and js elected by a mixed power representing both the , States and the people of the United States. , jyeverjbiforeiwas there so wise a govern, meni organized on earth, and never before have st people, in ancient or modern times, j been so prosperous and happy as the Ameri can people hare been under this Govern- ment. let us preserve u, uu, u w 6 age of our great political father and saviour, the immortal Washington, properly estimate its ralue, and frown indignantly on the: first ;ntrnv Bttpmnt to alienate one por i!nn of it from another.' In the language of another noble patriot of the Revolution, let our motto be, "Liberty, union, and inde pendence, now and forever, one and insep arable." WHIG STATE CONVENTION.

We see no good reason for chang !n ih nlnre from the Caoi'al of the Staie, sund we think a time somewhat later would probably be more convenient man me u5 proposed, when travelling will be difficult and unpleasant , These are minor points, however, about which, as in all other matters, we are quite willing to,defer to the will of the majority. It ii especially gratifying to learn, that the whigs of Guilford turned out m force, and exhibited much enthusiasm in the caue, honoring Fillmorb and Graham as the Na tional Standard bearers in the next cam paign, and proposing to do their duty tolheir party and tneir country in me prciuumij State canvass of next Summer. We respectfully sugzest to the Whigs in this and the neighboring counties tojfollow the (rood example of Guilford, by holding meet, fngs at their Courts during the ensuing three months, that all may be represented in the Stale Convention, with a spirit which will not think of another defeat.

This I conceive to be the attitude of the Southern States, in accepting the Compromise measures of THE WHIGS OF NORTH CAROLINA THEIR DUTY. We published last week the proceedings of the enthusiastic Whig meeting held in old Guil ford, and we publish to-day the call tor a similar meeting at our ensuing County Court. We learn that others have been called, both in the Eastern and Western part of the State. We earnestly hope that these primary meetings of onr friends to prepare for the political campaign of 1852 will be well attended, and that a system ot org nizji tion may be adopted which will secure union, harmony and zeal in the whole Whig Par tv throughout the State. We are aware of the This is a self CTtde.il propo.itionrie t! ha ,he last Congress, a, . gnal adjasfment, of the f that there bu Wb tome d of heart. requires no process of reasoning to make it delicate and exeuiaj Question of Slavery. On the , 4 . , ,. j .L: , THE nalnabla to everv candid mind. Hut we will mention one single fact, which will dis play the ludicrousness of this assumption in its proper light. It is this: One of the most prominent leaders of this exclusive De mocratic party, a conspicuous aspirant to the rresidencv. a Democrat par excellence, a vervDemocrat of Democrats, is well known to have made the declaration that, if he had one drop of Democratic blood in his veins, he would have recourse to phlebotomy, and rid himself of the penlous stuff" forever And there are many of the leading men of the party who, if they never uttered a simi lar declaration, may well be supposed to have; conceived it, since it is a matter of u niversal notoriety that they imbibed hatred to Democracy with their mothers' milk, and displayed it in ail their actions, until it be came politically convenient to receive a coat of Jackson, or Van Buren, or Polk whitewash, and, with the old stains of Federalism thus covered over, to come forth into ihe world again, bright, brilliant Democrats, as good as new- (J temporal U mores: The skilful angler adjusts his bait most carefully to the species offish he hopes to capture, and our Democratic "fishers of men have, with qua! dexterity, adapted the ex ternal appearance of their doctrines to the tastes of those whom they desired to catch PRESIDENT AND THE ABO LITIONISTS.

He speaks of them as "attemp'ing to murder men," "for resisting the operation of the law :" and throughout the whole document abors to convey the impression that they, and they alone, are to be held responsible for the Compromise, and for the enforce.

With the friends of the Union at the North, who have so nobly sustained aud maintained the com promise measures, the Southern Whig9 will cor dially unite in the choice of a Chief Magistrate for the nation, but with the fanatics and "higher law" factions they wil! not affiliate; or very quietly submit to any further agitation of the Slavery question, in the National Council. As In tie as 1 have seriously apprehended any imminent danger of a dissolution ot our confeder acy, I believe ine next presidential election will be the test Oi its permanency, and that great wis dom and prudence will be required in the selec tion of the candidates, and in concentrating the Union Conservative party of the nation. The failure in an election ofihe people.uhould be avoi ded if possible. If he goes to Congress, a thea tre will be presented for all the ambitiou?, design ing and evil spirits in the land, to plot mischief and treason against the Union. The Northern Abolitionist and the Southern Secessionists, will find it a field for the accomplishment of,all their views and for which they are now striving.- Tue Democratic party are making strong efforts to rally the party upon old party issues, dure warding recent dissensions, calculating, in the e- vent of a defeat belore the people, upon their strength in Congress and this wisdom would admonish us to "Utrd against, for notwithstand ing their boasted abhorrence of tree soilism, they have shown in the whole history of their partv that when it becomes necessary to insure politi- hoiited the names of Millard Fillmore and Win. A. Graham, for the offices of President and Vice President of the United States. At that time, we were solitary and alone, be ing the only paper in the United States with that ticket at the head of its Editorial columns, but now, more than 300 papers have Fill more s name hoisted tor the Presidency, and over 50 have the name of Wm. A. Graham at their mastheads for the Vice Presidency. We venture to assfrt, lhat such unanimity seldomtver before prevailed, in regard to the nomination tor those omccs, at so early a period preceding the Presidential election. We have honesty and candor enough to assert our belief, that Millard Fillmore is the only whig in the United States who can, be elected to the Presidency, at this time. Ii is useless to deny mat tne wr.ig party is weaker than in former year, and 'tis only by nominating the best, most patriotic, learned and conservative statesmen in its ranks, for the Presidency, that it can ever retrieve its former power and glory. Mr. Fillmore, though a Northern man, has shown, beyond question, his determination millions would cause the well-balanced scale of party ascendancy to preponderate in Lr-l ! il !!

They had felt the iron heel of oppression -tne re sult of monarchical and aristocratic institu tions upon their bended necks, and Demo cracy would oe to tnem out anotner name for liberty, security, and happiness. Demo cracy, then, must be "the watchword and the cry" the bait to catch these foreign voices, and swell the votes of the party into triumphant majorities How easy to per suade the unsuspecting emigrant that by be coming a Whig be would only change one iorm oi aristocracy ior anotner. "We are the Democrats, and our opponents of course nor Democrat, for you see they are opposed to Democracy, and must therefore be aristo crats and enemies to republicanism." We have beard just such reasoning as this, and have known it to be eminently successful. Under all the circumstances. I think a nation al Union Convention, disregarding old party lines would be the course of wisdom ; but it that can not be effected, there ought to be a national Whig Convention, aud all of the Southern btaies should send Delegates to it ; but under instructions, tore' quire the adoption of Resoluions by the Conven tion, that no candidate for en her the Presidency or Vice Presidency should be put into Domina tion, who bad not, or would not, make an expli cit declaration of his approval and support of the Compromise measures, nd especially of the fugi tive slave law; and his disapproval of any repeal or modification of it. And without such explicit declaration bf the Convention, before proceeding lo the nomination ot the Candidates, to withdraw from any participation in the Convention. ihese are, hastily, my views.

But we trust that all such difficulties have been forgotten, that we are again united as a band of brothers, that, feeling the great importance of the present crisis not on ly te onr own Stale, but to the whole Union, we are prepared to buckle on our armors and go into the conflict with a firm and resolute determination to conquer. This we can do, if we are true to the cause ; acd we can but believe that the Whig Pariy in North Carolina, in the approaching State and Presidential elections, will rise above all sec tional prejudices, and bend tbeir whole efforts to secure the triumph of those principles which have been so fignally illustrated by the present patriotic Administration.

The letter indicates in the strong est possible terms the determination of the Ad ministration to enforce the law, without respect to persons or localities, and is in keeping with their enure conduct in this and every similar in stance.

Sir: The President has learned from the newspapers, with the'deepest regret, that a dis graceful outrage has recently been committed by a lawless mob, who have by force rescued a lugi live from labor ftom the custody of the marshal, thereby resisting ihe execution of legal process and setting the law at defiance. He hopes thai the 8ta.leinenis respecting the occurrence are er aggerated, especially as it took place at your re- iYi thr VTrrmTjn ht'i nvn titf. srpnTT a On the 22nd of last month, the "nnternfled Democracy! of Tammany Hall, in New York, had a "grand gathering to ratify the nominations of their Party. From all the accounts that we have seen, the meeting was characterized by many eurious inci dents, and we judge that ihe "progreasiveness" which illustrated the principles pat forth in the Resolutions adopted, will make some of the "Southern allies' feel that they have at last bej come associated with strange bed-fellows. The? solemnly resolved that our Government should "adhere no longer to the dogmas of neutrality in our Foreign policy" a sentiment which will meet with a cordial response trom the Cuban sympa thizers, plunging us, as it necessarily will, when carried out, into all the heated and bloody con flicts of European Governments ! How will the Southern Democracy relish the policy of identifying our Government with all the conflicts which may be carried on in other parts of the world, for popular rights 1 Will they dis card, ic this particular, as they have dons in others, the warning of Washington and other great fa thers of the Republic ! Will they sanction such a policy, whilst they declaim so patriotically against interference from abroad in our own domestic affairs 1 But there was a yet more "carious" resolve, by the "untarrified of Tammany," m the following words: "Resolved, That we hail with delight the recent Democratic victories achieved by Cobb in Georgia, Biglek in Pennsylvania, Foote in Mississippi, and WOOD in Ohio, and we rejoice that the pa triotic DeoDle of ihese States have thus evinced their determination to stand upon the established principles of the Democratic faith, a strict con struction of the Uonsluuiion, ana a jawijui ad herence to the laics. Really, this is a salamagundi of political princi les ! The triumphs of Cobb and i'oote are re- T pndiated by the real Democracy of the South, and by them denounced as triumphs of "timid Demo crats, base submissionists, and craven consolida- tioniats I" We were under the impression all sinner, that to a PTeat decree, the election of ev o o Cobb and the success in M ississppi were Whig triumphs! The great majority of those who achieved them were Whigs, and, if our memory is not treacherous, McDonald and Quitman w re held up aa the real simon-pure representatives of the true "Dsmocratic faith," and a "strict con struction." We presume, however, there must have been some mistake in all this. It is a matter of congratulation that the "unterrified of Tam many" are rejoicing so heartily over the prostra tion of Secessionism and the success of Ukiosism at the South! ; In the same breath, nevertheless, they are founa rejoicing over the aucces of Wood in Ohio, who is a bitter enemy of the Compromise, especially the Fugitive law, and owes bis election to a fou and infamous combination between the Democra' cy and Freesoilers ! This, too, they call a triumph of the bDrinciDles of the Democratic faith'" of j 2 "strict construction" and "a faithful adherence to the laws." W7hat an accomodating set of prin ciplcs the Democracy have ! How elastic is their platform ! But we have yet in reserve the roost striking feature of that irrand iratherins," or rather omnium gatherum. Mr. Foemky, the Editor of theuPeunsylvanian," the leading Democratic press of Philadelphia made a speech, and in the course of it uttered this sentiment : "I have no hesitation in deliberately announcing this as my doctrine, that I had rathek vote FOR THE WOEST DlHOCKAT THAT XVEA LIVED THAU THE BEST WHIG THAT EVER LIVED.

The want of a self apply iDg conciene causes much of ihe best of preaching to fall like rain upon a rock, from which it soon runs off; or, if a little is caught in j a hollow, it only stagnates, and then dries away, leaving no blessings behind. A sermon, however true and lorcible, thus disposed of, does no goou to ttiose among whom it is so silently distributed, while it leaves him who squanders its treasures to perish al last in the poverty and empti ness of his soul.

In August, 1852, a Legislature is to be elected, which Legislature may have to elect a United States Senator, though the term of Mr Atchison will not expire before March, 1855 But a vacancy may occur, anc Mr. Benton is too old scdier not to provide in season against such an eventuality. 'At all events, he designs to en ter, at the beginning of his seventy-first year, into a contest as fierce, vindictive, and implacable as was ever waged between political and personal opponents, for the mastery of the party in Mis souri.

Reid has appointed the following Judges, w noia opecial lerma of the Superior Courts : Judge Caldwell, Buncombe, firat Monday ia December, 1801. Judga Ellis, Moore, fourth Monday in Norem oer, 1851. ? Judge Battle, Wake, second Monday in Jan uary, 1852. Judge Dick, Randolph, third Monday in Jan. uary, 1853. - Benhett, of the New York Herald, says : "The election ot 1852 will be decided upon great principles. Men will be nothing military glory will be nothing agricultural speeches will be nothing grand orations will be nothing. But every thirrg will depend upon a fair, liberal, hon est platform, for the South and for the North, and a foreign policy up to the new exigencies ofithe age." He thinks also, that in deciding the eon test for the Presidency, "making love to the la dies at the Springs, and the Sovereign People a long the Rail Roads, and delivering learned lec tures to practical farmers at agricultural fairs and cattle shows, on Durham Balls and Berkshire Pigs and Irish Potatoes," will al! avail nothing. In this list, Senator Douglass appears to fare worse than any. He has been here and there de livering "learned lectures" on agriculture, &c, and knows as little, we imagine, about farming, practically, as PUloic did about" digging ditsh es."

The Newark Daily Advertiser publishes a Utter dated Marseilles, which states that Kossuth wumach excited at the Perfect of the city allowing him to land only on condition that no demonstration ihnM be made. The letter states that Kossuth lu addrer sed rather an abusive letter to the American Con sul at Marseilles, in which he denounces the Coonil and Captain Long of the frigate Mississippi, jin that he would leave the ship at the firat port ib stopped, and that he would proceed by prirate coo veyanee to the United States. The writer of tkt letter to the Advertiser thinks there is no jut ctutt for such conduct on the part of Kossutb, and doubU if he ever intended visiting America. The facts, as they more distinctly appear from tht Europa'e advices, seem to be ; Tht a mwunderfUn. ding occurred between Kossuth and the officers of the Mississippi, arising from Kossuth's proceeding! at Marsedles. Tluy were anxious, that he, Thileona national ship, should do aothing which might compro mise the national government, in respect to its rela tions with a friendly power. Kosauth took offeDet at these very proper representations, and left the ship and landed at Gibraltar. . Kossutb bas doubtless been led into so error oi judgment, and, in the enthusiasm of his nature, and admiration of the liberality of the United Statet to wards him, may have expected too much, and hem experienced chagrin and disappointment, when he found it was necessary that his movement should U somewhat circumscribed.

MR. GORRELL'S ADDRESS. We are indebted to a friend for a neat pamphlet copj of the address of Ralph Gorrcll, Esq., before the two literary Societies) at Davkkoa College, on tbe 13th of August last printed at the office of the Greensboro' Patriot" "We do not know when we have perused any literary production, from which we have derived greater gratification. The subject of the ad dress is: lThs influence f Educated men upon So ciety ;" and in pointing out where that influence may be best exerted, the able and patriotic Author shows the great wants of our State in the way of improved rJeana of commerce and travel, in improved modes of qtjriculture, in popular education, and in staying the tide of emigration. The "Greensboro' Patriot" justly remarks of this Address: Abounding m practical thought , and the eloquence of common sense, the Address will be read with pecu liar zest and profit by every true North Carolinian into whose hands it may alL Desirous of giving as wide a circulation as possible to sentiments so excel lentmd so agreeably expressed, we commenced mar king passages for our paper, and found, when we got pencil marks.
