THE MESSAGE.
We have the pleasure of laying before our tea
d.rs. to-day, the greater part of the President's
Message and Jt noble document it is. We hate
omitted such portions of it, as are not ot general
or particular interest, in order to accomodate it to
the state ofjur columns. " We have not room,
even, to speak of it, as we desire to do, and as it
deserves to be spoken of. In our next, we shall
take occasion to no'ice its prominent features.
We may say of it, however, in passing, that its
,pirit anits letter show even more conclusively,
if possible, than any of Mr. Fn-Wtofis's previous
acts, that the Goverment has fallen into safe, hon
est and competent hands. To the South, espec
Ully, it commends itself, as a fearless and unbias
ed recognition of its rights, under the Constito-'
tion and the Laws-but to ttt whtUt Cbwtir$i
nevertheless, as a patriotic comprehensive and
SalUwd State paper. More we shall have to say
ol it less we could hot now have said.
MISSISSIPPI CONVENTION.
We learn from Jackson, the capital of the State,
that on the 15th instant the State Convention cf
Mississippi passed the Union Resolutions reported
irom the Committee of Thirteen, a copy ol whuHT
w as publisher ia our last paper, some slight amend
ment having been previously made to them.
These Resolutions declare, as the reader will
remember, that the People of Mississippi abide
by the serios of measures sanctioned by Congress
in 1850, usually called "the Compromise," and ex
plicitly declare the opinion of the Convention that
-the People of Mississippi will abide by the Union
as it is, and by the Constitution of the United
Ftntrs without amendment
The equally strong declaration against the pre
tended Right of Secession on the part of a State
or Slates, as a subversion of the Union, and
amounting in its effects, and consequences to a
Civil Revolution, was passed by a vote of seventy
nine yeas to seventeen nays.
We heartily congratulate our readers on this
expression, Which we believe to be the true one,
of the sentiment of the People of the State, in
which originated the Nashville Convention, whose
projects, had not the sound sense of. the People
been awakened in time to their real character,
might have led :o the downfall of that Union to
which every Southern State has in one way or
other manifested its intention to adh ere. -
The Mississippi Convention probably adjourned
on the I7:h ult.
CONGRESS.
The House of Representatives was organized
as our readers were informed through a Telegra
phic Despatch in our last, on Monday, by thel
elcetion of the Hon. Lyjjk Boyd, of Kentucky, a.
Speaker; J. W. Forhet, Editor of the Pennsyl
tanian, as Clerk ; Mr. Glosbrensek, of Penn
sylvania, as Sergeant at-arms; and Mr. Johssoh
of Virginia, as Postmaster. The Whigs of the
House, generally, voted for Mr. Sta.ily, of this
St:ite, and Mr. Cbasdlee, of Pennsylvania, for
Speaker.
The President's Message was sent in on Tues
day.
We learn from the '-Republic," that the caucus
of Democratic members, previous to the organi
zation of the House, was attended by about ninety
members, and that its proceedings were lively
and protracted. It says:
'Mr. W. A. Richardson, of Illinois, was in the
chair, and Mr. F. P. Stanton, of Tennessee, and
VV. P, Hall, of Missouri, were Secretaries. After
the meeting was organized. M:ijor Polk, of Ten
nessee, offered a resolution cordially approving of
the series of measures known as the Compromise,
and pronouncing them a final adjustment of the
questions to which they relate. This gave rise
to a debate.' in the course of whirh Mr. Stanton.

laid
After this division several members left the
meeting. The vote on the nomination for Spea
ker was 80. For Clerk, Mr Forney received 60
votes: Mr. Youn. the former incumbent. 20. A
hnt of candidates appeared for the Doorkeeper
shin : and we understand that a compromise in
regard to the apportionment of the offices con
trolled by the Doorkeeper was found necessary to
secure the nomination ot Mr. McKnew, Messrs
Glossbrer.ner and Johnson were nominated by ac
carnation.
The coalition of Massachusetts was represented
by Mr. Rantoul that of Connecticut bv.Mr
Cleveland. The JYeesoilers of New York were
represented by Mr. Preston King. Resolutions
in support of the Compromise measures were laid
on the table, we understand, by a majority of nine
votes. On the repudiation ot these resolutions
a number ol the Democrats left the caucus, ana
the remaining members, including Messrs. Ran
toul, King, and Cleveland, made the nominations
we have mentioned.
If Mr. Boyd and his associates should be elect-
ed, they- will be indebted to the gentlemen we
nave mentioned fur their nomination, and t wu
only require the votes of Messrs. Colcock, Wood
ward, Wallace, Bocock, Venable, and men

tW The Republic answers completely and
satisfactorily, ihe assertion of Mr. Rencher, in re
ftrencr to a dereliction of duty on the part of the
President, with regard to the Fugitive Slave Law.
It shows that ihe President has never failed n hu
duty, and that lie ana his administration stand
ready at all times, to exert all their constitutional
powers to have that law enforced, and to punish
the nullifiers who would obstruct its operation.

Great telegraphic feat.
On Tuesday last, the 2nd inst., the President's
Message was delivered simultaneously at all points
between Washington City and New Orleans
the Postmasters at each place having been pre
viously provided with copies, and only awaiting
the orders of the Postmaster General, which were
given at one o'clock, (soon after the assemblage
of Congress,) by Telegraph. On the same day
and at the same time, probably, the whole Union
was placed in possession of the views of its Chief
Magistrate. What a change! what a revolution !
What a stride over the slow going motions of our
good old fathers! Years ago, the old posters were
whipped up to a speed of ten miles an hour. A
little later, the Locomotive bore the document at
the rate of forty mi'.es, and then it boasted of the
annihilation of time and space. But this modern
innovator, the Telegraph, has brought the whole
Country to Washington ; and the Message was
read fifteen hundred miles off, before the Clerk
of the House had finished his reading to the as
sembled Congress in the House ofv Representa
tives. On the same day, the New York and New Or
leans Offices interchanged messages, without in
termediate re-laying ; writing direct from one
paint to another, a distance of communication
never before attempted or attained on the surface
of the globe being upwards of 2000 miles by the
wires ! !

The Organization JJr. Boyd and the Compromise
The Whig Caucus Resolutions Thorough
Adherence to Hie Adjustment -Measures.
The House is organised, and Linn Boyd speaker.
Previous to his election, George VV. Jones, of
Tennessee, declared he should vote for him, not
because the caucus had voted fr him, bu; beeause
he was a good compromise man. Tiiere is truly
no he'ter compromise man in the House than Mr.
B yd, and certainly no more honest and straight
forward a man on the wh le continent. Of course
all the other caucus nominees ar.? electt-d ou ihe
same principle Forney by 50 majority.
The Whigs held a caucus this morning in which
they passed the follow ng highly satisfactory re
solution: Resolved, That we regard the series of acts,
known as the adjustment measures, as forming in
their mutual dependenre an I connection a system
of compromise, the most conciliatory. and the best
for the entire country that could b' obtained from
conflicting sectional interests and opinions;and that
therefore, they ought :o beadh r.d to and cariitJ
into faithful execution is a final settlement in prin
ciple and substance of th dangerous and exciting
subjects which they embrace."
There were betweeen fifty and sixty whigs in
cancus, a majority Northern men, and there were
not more than five or eight who vold agninsi the
resolution or let! the room The democrats pro
posed to beat that all hollow. They went to mus
ter their whole s rengih in Congress and pass the
compromise resolutions, with the whole strength
of tlie parly under drill. Thf fact is the whigs
went at the resolutions without looking to office,
which was beyond their rach; while the demo-
rats exhibited ihe phenomenon, called by a.strono
uiers the ptrallax; that N, they suffered themselves
to he drfUiied from a straight line by the m'dium
ltrous.li which thev passed: but all will be mine
ight in a tew days
This is rejreshin! Last ynar the diunionisls
nd tree-soiiers denounced tne Union as'A cur-
e," a mere wanton. Now the fashion is to wor
hip at her shrine. The Union is not only the
vowed bride of every irue American heart, but
Iso the fashion of thedav: disunion will soon be
n obsolete idea.
I forgt t to state, in my last letter, that the Presi
dent, in his message, will hnd Kossuth ovc to
ngress.as it was by a join' resolution of Congress,
ntrodueed by Gen. Foote in the Sen ue, that the
nate Mississippi was placed at the disposition of
Kosuth, and the orator-statesman of Hungary in
vited to our hospitable shores.
Since the above was put in type, we have re
eived, through the Washington papers, the offi
cial proceedings of the Wh caucus. Mr. Out
law, of this State, presided, and Mr. Moore, of
ennsylvania, acted as Secretary. The loliowing
is tne resolunon adopted on the occasion, with
but two or ihree dissenting voices. The proceed
ings, in full, ."hall appear in our nejt. .
Ilesolvel, That we regard the series of acts
knoivn as the adjustment measures, as forming,
in iheir mutual dependence and connexion, a sys
tem of compromise the most conciliatory and the
best for the entire country that could be obtained
from conflicting sectional interests and o pit. ions;
and that therefore they ought to be adhered to
and carried into faithtui execution, as a final set
tlement, in principle and substance, of the dange

CO-OPERATION CONVENTION
IN
SOUTH CAROLINA.
Charleston, December 1
The Co operation Convention met at Colum
bia on the 23ih, when a committee, which had
been appointed at a previous meeting, consisting
of Langdon Caeves, Senator Barnwell, Chancel
lor Jay, Johnson, and James Chesnut, jr., T. N
Dankins, A. P. Aldrich, and John Townsend,
made a report on the present aspect ot aflairs.
lhey dcem.it inexpedient to do more than indi
catc by a few simple resolutions a platform upon
which, according to their judgment, the people of
South Carolina placed themselves by the recent
election. 1 he following are the resolutions :
Resolved, That we regard the State as having
decided that, whilst the right ol seceding is a fun
damental, indisputable one, the exercise of it by a
single btate, without a well grounded assurance
of concurrence and support of other Slates, is not
an appropriate remedy lor existing grievances
nor a sufficient safeguard against those which
menace us in future, and that any attempt, direc
tly or indirectly, to accomplish sucn a purpose,
would be a contravention ot the clear declaration
of the public will.
Ri sohed, That we regard these declarations of
public will as having removed the cause which
separated those who advocated separate secession
from those who advocated co-operation, and that
we would feel a sincere satisfaction should they
now unite iu pursuing the same policv which the
State has marked out for herself, in strict accord
ance with the principles heretofore maintained by
.the State
Resolced, That we think it expedient that the
organization of those who desire to promote co
operation should be persevered lit.

ICorrespondence of the Baltimore Sun.
Washington, November 30.
The Democratic Caucus and Tabling of the Com'
promise Resolutions-'Withdrawal of Members
Only one Majority Candidate for OJjves of the
House The Votes. ,
Th.re was considerable animation in the Dem
ocratic caucus last evening, and, contrary to all ex
pectation, the Compromise resolutions were voted
down; that is to say, they were tabled, though a
motion was pending to refer them to a committee.
A motion to adjourn was also voted down, though
that would have given absent members a chance
'to be heard.
But fifiy members voted against the Compro
mise that isfor tabling it and thirty one or
thirty.nine for it that is against tabling it. The
short sense of along story is.tha Compromise was
kicked jut of caucus oy about nineteen majori-
y
A number of members then withdrew, or ab
stained from voting. Among them were Judge
Bayly ol Virginia, German of Indiana, Geo. W.
Joces of Tennessee, Froeman and Wilcox of Mis
sissippi, and a good many others.
Among those who remained and voted were
Messrs. .Rantoul of Massachusetts, Preston King
of New York, Governor Cleveland of Connecti
cut, and others of that persuasion of politics.
None of the caucus nominations received a ma
jority of the Democratic vote in Congress but Mr.
Johnson, the present postmas er of the House,
who was renominated without opposition.
Colonel Forney received 6U votes for Clerk, and
Linn Boyd 51 or 57 lor Speaker. Yet both these j
men are known to ba staunch Compromise men.
so tint, afier all. the intentions of the mMonty of !
the Democratic party have been faithfully carried
out in their selection. i
What effect the voting down, or kicking out, of
the Compromise resolutions will have on the coun
try, remains to be seen. An enect will no doubt, Te
made to offr similar resolutions as soon as Con
gress shall organize; and some think they will
pass; but that may safely be questioned. It they
pass, they will pass by the joint vote of Union
Whigs and Union Democrats.

The ground on which the Southern Union men

Mr. Richardson, of Illinois , acted as chairman
of the meeting, and Messrs. Stanton of Tennessee
and Hall of Missouri, as Secretaries.

got over. The resolutions were laid on the table,
but whether to be taken up again is not stated.
But some of the members withdrew upon this
movement, and it is openly and confidently sta ed
that the Union m-?n will resort to a separate or

THE FIRST MOVEMENTS OF THE OP
POSITION.
We nun ish in another column certain letter
from the well-known correspondents of the Balti
more Sun, in illustration ot the views ol the De
mocratic members of Congress touching the Com
promise resolutions tliat were laio on tne table in
ihe Democratic caucus on Saturday evening oy a
vote of 59 yeas to 50 nays. These ieiters wi;l
now be read with great interest. They show the
great importance which was attached by the lead
ing men of the partv to the passage of those re
solutions before lit" caucus. e are curious to see
wiiat sloss will be put upon the actual course o!
the Democratic members by the same correspon
denis aier (te caucus.
Ihe tact has gone lorln to the country, alter
nil the?e preliminary announcements, lhat the
Democratic caucus refused to endorse the mea
6ures ol Compromi.-e Why? Simply because
he Democrats proper were out-voted by the Se
cessionists and Abolitionists. 1 here was a ma
jority of the latter force in caucus. The Demo
cratic parly proper the boulhern Kih's party ol
the South wuh iher leaders ano presses, are
Secessionists and Disuniorusts, do not approve
of the Compromise, and do not intend to acquiesce
ait. 1. ney have been struggling against it in
Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, and other South
em States, and huve no idea of being committed
to it in any national caucus. So it is w ith the
Northern Aboli lonisK Mr. Kaotoul waselected
expressly on the ground of opposition to the Fu
gitive olave law. Mr. rrestop. King is a tree
so i ler, and has been for years lab ring to hand
over the Democratic party of New York lo the
tender mercies of the Van Buren taction. Mr.
Cleveland occupies the same position in Connec
ticut as Mr. Kanioul in Massachusetts, and Mr.
Preston King in New York These men. with
their Secession allies in the Democratic caucus
were strong enough to impose terms on the Na
tional Democrats. They insisted that the Com
promise measures should not be endorsed, but
that they should be left open tor political agita
tion. Now it cannot be denied, nor can it be explain
ed or palliated, that the Democratic party, as such,
from deference lo the Abolitionists tnd Secession
ists in their ranks, have refused to place them
selves on tne compromise measures, and have
nominated and elected their Speaker on the Free
soil and Seceusiou negation of the finality of these
measures.
And what has been the policy of the Whisrs?
At the Whig caucus, publicly called through the
two Whig journals in this city to assemble at
nine o'clock on Monday morning, nearly all the
Whig members of the House were present as
many as were within reach of the announcement.
At this meeting a resolution was offered, endors
ing, in ihe language of President Fillmore's last
annual message, the series of measures known as
the Adjustment, and recommending adherence to
tbera as a " final settxemekt" of the dangerous
and exciting subjects which they embrace A
motion to lay this resolution on the table failed
a very small minority voting in its favor. It was
then put to the meeting and carried by an almost
unanimous vote three gentlemen, whose Free
soil tendencies overmastered their Whiggery .with
drawing from the caucus.
RALEIGH, N. C, DECEMBER
Thus fiat the nohcyxTa Vhir Administration
been sustained by the representatives in Congress
of the Whig party.
In the House yesterday, as will be seen by the
reports in another column, the Democratic party,
counting in their number Messrs. Rantoul, Cleve
Inud, and Preston King, succeeded by a majority
of eleven votes in electing Mr. Linn Boyd to the
Speakership. In accomplishing this result, the
Democratic party has been secessionized and abo
litionized. The Whig made bo nomination to
the Speakership. They were prepared, many of
them, to vote for any party presented on the Com
promise platform, the ground of the Administra
tion. They were in a hopeless minority. It would
have been idle for them to nominate a candidate
of their own; but they were ready to take up any
Democrat, known to be sound on the questions of
Adjustment, if they had been allowed an opportu
nity. But this opportunity was not afforded. The
bargain had been too strictly affirmed. The Demo
crats h id sacrificed the Compromise to conciliate
the votes of the ultras of the North and South.
The Bufftlo Convention and Nashville Conven
tion had every thing their own way; and the pre
sent Speaker of the H use of Representatives is
the creature of a coalition as corrupt and shameless
as that which in Massachusetts elected Mr. Sum
ner to the Senate and Mr. tlntou) to the House
and which in Nev Tf1f irret! an almost
en ir ticket of Freesoilers to all . he important
U3tte offices.
We confess lhat we were in hnpes of a different
result. We thought the time had arrived when
the friends of the Union and the Constitution,
on the Democratic as well as the Whig side of
the South, were prepared to make up the issue
with disunionists ol all shades and comp exions,
and to compel the men who think alike to act to
gether. We did not imagine; that a caucus of
either party wou'd shri'ik from applying the
Compromise test to its members, an ! from abi-

ble public sentiment would have been fiirly
represented in the Congressional caucuses of both
parties, and that neither party would have sought
by any base allegi.-ince or supple truckling to se
cure temporary advantages at th expense of the
Constitution and the Union. We have been dis
appointed. The Democracy Inve pursued their
old policy of sacrificing principles to the pursuit
of powr. They! have" adopted and endorsed the
coalition of Massachusetts, and reinforced it with
the Secession phalanx f tfreSouih. Such is the
character and position of ihe opposition to Mr.
Fillmore and his Admin. stration, and it was a
fitting finale to their whole arrangement that the
oath of office should be udministered to the wil
ling nominee of the Democratic caucus by Mr.
Giddings, just alter he hid declared himself a
free Democrat, a lid urged n immediate election.
We were singularly stru?k by the appropriateness
of this denouement, and ihe cordial extra sh.tke of
the hand t y which the ceremony was concluded
was but a faint type of ihe warm felicitations with
which the allied forces o! the Democrats and Ab
olitionists contemplate' the first movement of the
session upon the Compromise meusures and the
Administration. llppi, blic.

because I know he deserved it, and it is hearifelt
on your parts. After DeBernif re commenced
studying law, his mind seemed to develope and
Save evidence ol power ol which he. as well as his
friends, were before not conscious. His close ap
plication to study made him a tit example, which
you will be trie more encour.igeJ to follow, be
cause of his evident and rapid advance in making
hirnseli master of the Fcience of law, and his de
votion and actual love for ihe study.
Yours trulv,

MARRIED.
At St. John's Church, in Favetteville, on Tues
day morning, by the Rev. Joseph C. Huske, M'
Jos. B. Starr, of the firm of St;irr &. Williams, to
Miss Soph;a S nith, second daughter of the late C
C. Smith.
At his residence, in the county of Sampson, on the
27ih ult., Dr. George W- Stith, for many years a
resident of that County, lie left a wife and nine
children to mourn his loss. To them, it is a sad be
reavement; theirs is not only the loss of a father and
friend, but of a companion from whose pure example
and tender guidance they have learned many a salu
tary lesson. He was for many years a pious Chris
tian and a strict member of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. The w.iy iu-which beived. the veneratloa
paid to the deceased, and le heartfelt sympathy of
Ins triends and ne;rubor3 p'aitilv indicate that Ins Kss
in the community in which he lived is one deeply
fe't and lonir to ba m.mrned. To bis wife and orphan
children, let a word u comfort be spoken ; Grieve
not too much , for it is the summons of his master
which he has obeyed. He orders all things and in so
doing acts in his wisdom Let them feel assured.
that the same being that 'tempers the wind to the
horn amb, will administer consolation in this time
of iheir bereavement, if they do but humbly call up
on bun. loins friends there is a consolation that as
the jrood deeds and christian virtues of this life are
rewarded in the next world, he will have his reward
in heaven : and let them strive lhat ''iheir last end
may be like his." Then death shall be without its
sting, tor we. are told that a voice camj out trom
Heaven, "saying, write', from henceforth blessed are
the dead who dte in the Lord : even so saith the spir
it, for they rest from their labours,'5 Com.
Iu Char'eston,, S. C, on the 25th ult., Johnsnn Mal
lett DeBernfere, Esq., of Marion, N. C, aged about
twenty one years.
Mr. DeBerniere graduated at the University of
North Carolina, in June. lr49, and immediately com
menced the study of Law. In June last he received
licence to practice his profession in the Superior
Courts of the State, and w:ig just commencing a career
of which his friends had formed high hopes, when he
was arrested by death.
The aunouncemeiit of his u:ititne'y end will fall up
on their ears like the solemn tolling of a funeral knell.
He bad not interested public attention ; his voice had
not been heard in the forum ; his counsels were not
sought by deliberative assemblies; listening multi
tudes bail not learned to hang with rapture on his ac
cents ; his name was not associated with great events ;
the great world knew him not. Life with him was
but a short dream, too short for a destiny like this;
hardly had he time to give more than an earnest of
what the future might have beeu ; hardly bad be es
sayed those powers which argued fortune and fame
to come. Uut who t-hall blame his friends, if they
mourn for one cut off in the pride of youth, and in
the dawn of his talents, when life seemed so beauti
ful bef'ire bin, so full of glorious anticipations?
Tifey knew his worth; the gentleness of his disposi
tion, the purity of bis heart, his manly sensibility to
the dictates ol honor and his generous scorn of all
that was unworthy. Surely.it may be permitted to
them to drop a tear to his memory, while the earth is
yet fresh above his body, and to cherish an affectionate
regard for his character. is
