The meeting resolved to establish itself into a
Party to be called the "National Republicans ."'
cut it seems the meeting did not consider, af-
1i r nil, Ifmli ffin Whig ?nrf j iriin iaat cure, for
it not only selected its Candidate for the Presi
dency from its ranks, but has actually appro
priated, againjst his own will, expressed in a
letter publishpd a few days before, its Candid
ate for the Vice Presidency.
But we are somewhat apprehensive that this
may embarrass Mr. Graham, for if he should be
elected Vice President by both the Whig Party
and the National Republican Party, with their
respective platforms, what can he do ? And if
elected by tho latter alone, why, where is he
(should he accidentally become President,) to
get officers for his Cabinet, and all the other
places, both great and smallj which are neces
sary to carry on the Government t Not from
amongst the "NatioiisC Republicans. Oh I no,
they will not touch office ! Tlhy believe all the
evils of Government to flow from the corrupting
influence of the "office holders."
But, in all candor, what do our former friends
of the "National Republicans" expect to accom
plish by such a movement as this ? They say
they approve the principles of the Whig Plat
form, and they profess to be the political and
personal friends of Mr. Graham. Can their ac
tion end in any thinjr, but the miuryof their
own Caudtdate for the Vice Presidency, and the
weakening the strength of their own principles?
Are they not playing into the hands of the
friends of Pierce and King ? Are theV not do
ing gross injustice to Mr. Graham ?
HERE IS A SHORT ACT WHICH MAY BE
WORTHY OF THE NOTICE OF THE
SOUTH.
; An act authorizing Edmund Brooke to remove
to the District of Columbia two slaves, owned
by him prior to his removal from Virginia, :
" Tie it tnrirtjj rtv That F.dnrmnd P.rnnlio n
Georgetown, in the District of Columbia, be au
thorized, and permission is hereby granted him,
to bring from the State of Virginia into the
said District of Columbia two negro slaves,
namely, John and Alfred, the property of the
said Brooke, and to have and to exercise the
name ri crVi fa nf rirnnnrtv ond nf ownei-ickin nver
the said slaves as if they had been brought by
the said Brooke into the said District of Colum
bia, any law, custom, or usage to the contrary
notwithstanding. This act shall be in force from
its passage." Approved June 30, 1834. (Vide
Little & Brown's private acts, p. 600.)
This bill came up in the House of Represen
tatives June '12th, 1834, when Mr. Wardwell
moved to lay it on the table, which failed, yeas
69, nays 9oj f ranklin Pierce voting tn the affir
mative ; and thereupon the bill passed, yeas 106,
nays 47, Franklin Pierce voting in the negative.
I viae 11. iour., ist.sess., sa uong,, p. ito.)
And yet this man is called a friend to the
South 1 The vote in question was phactical
abolition, and we defy the Southern locofoco
press to justify or excuse it, or to produce any
thing in Gen. Scott's history half so insulting
and inimical to the South !
The Scott and Graham Club had Quite
an interesting meeting on Monday evening last.
The President being absent, Sion H. Rogers,
Esq., was called, to preside, and Claudius B.
Sanders requested to act as Secretary. Mr. B.
F. Tant was called out, and after some very ap
propriate remarks, sung, to the admiration of
all, a good campaign song. Mr. Gould sug
gested that the Hon. James T. Morehead was
in Town, and moved that a Committee of three

appointed. In a short time the Committee ap
peared, and Mr. Morehead was introduced to
the Club by G. W. Haywood, Esq. Mr. More

hour in an able and interesting speech.
On motion the thanks of the Club were unani

on further motion the Club adjourned.
: The principles of the Whig party are the prin
ciples of General Scott, and looofocoism, we
take it for granted, has no fitter embodiment
in these latter days than is to be found in the
pubhe character of Gen. Franklin Pierce. It
may not be time mis-spent, therefore, to con
trast the public services and personal merits of
the two candidates.

Gen. Scott s civil services place him in the
first rank of statesmen, and entitle him to the
lasting gratitude of the American people.
When only 28 years of ago he was offered a dis
tinguished position in Mr. Madison's Cabinet.
Ile settled our difficulties with England in re
gard to the N. E. Boundary, and savod us from
IJ m aTr naon- IIe brouSht the cele
brated " Black Hawk war" to a close, in a man
ner which reflected the greatest credit on his
ability as a civilian, and secured a lasting bles
singto his country. & :
His services in the removal of the Cherokees
were invaluable, and must forever give lustre
to his name. He was mainly instrumental in
saving the country from the horrors of civil war
m the times of Nullification, and displayed
therein all the qualities of a patriot and the at
fanbutes of a statesman. In conducting his
hmzak campaign inMexico, he showed him
self possessed of admiBistrataieTqaaBfiesef-trie
highest, order, and clearly established that his
ability as a civilian is only transcended by his
pre-eminent talents as a soldier. Under all cir
cumstances, he has exhibited patriotism, integ
rity, generosity, intellect and courage. He has
shown that he loved the Union, respected the
rights of all sections, and hated fanaticism wher
ever manifested.
Though a general, he loves peace ; though a
soldier, he is still a christian ; though raised in
th4 camp, he is intimately acquainted with the
principles and policy of the government ; and
his election must prove a blessing and an honor
to the American people.
Here is one of his noble sentiments : "I pre
fer an honorable peace even to a successful
war."
. Gei. .Quitman, a Democraris Govenjur.saysof
him. ' "As to his being controlled by Seward,
that is all stuff! I know the man, and he will be
controlled by no one, contrary to his convictions
of what is right." And again, "the mof& his
character is canvassed, the higher will be this
stand in the admiration and gratitude of his
countrymen." Messrs. Clav, Webster, Spencer,
and Ililliard, all unite in tliis opinion of Gen.
Scott. Dr. Chauning, an eminent Minister of
the Gospel says "lo Gen. Scott belongs the
rare honor of uniting, with military energy and
daring, the spirit of a christian: his exploits in
the field are obscured by his glory as a peace
maker, and a friend of mankih-i."
Gen. Scott is the hero of ten pitched battles, and
of three distinct wars. His whole life has been
spent in serving his country, and in so doing, he
has not only covered it with glory, but won for
himself a name which posterity will honor and
reverence throughout all time.
Displaying an executive talent unsurpassed
by our ablest statesmen, an honesty which noth
ing could corrupt, a courage as true as the steel
of his own tried sword, and a talent for military
affairs unequalled in the history of the world; he
well deserves the most fervent gratitude of the
peopie, ana me nignest honors ot his country.
Reasons fur Opposing Oen. Pierce,
Gen. Pierce is opposed to distributing these
lands among the States. He wishes them used
for national purposes, so that no oue may be
benefitted, and the people left to improve the
country and educate their children at their own
expense.
Gen. Pierce is opposed to a general system
01 improvements oy tne trovernment. He is
unwilling thus to advance the best interests of
the country. He does not desire to protect
commerce, and wishes farmers to take care of
themselves. He thinks the opening of inlets,
the removal of bars, and increasing the facili
ties of navigation, wrong, inexpedient and un
constitutional. Gen. Pierce, with the Democrats generally,
is opposed to a tariff, and wishes to build up
and foster the manufacturing interests of Great
Britain at the expense of our own. The Bri
tish papers arc urging us to make him Presi
dent, because his election would be the triumph
01 tneir principles ana policy.
Gen. Pierce refused to reply to a letter written
before the nomination, asking him whether or
not he favored the compromise; ha- was first
nominated by a school of rank Abolitionists,
and is now sustained by the most prominent
" free soilers" of the North. He has admitted
that ho loathed the Fugitive Slave Law, and
would never consent to the capture, and deliver
ing up a Slave to his Master.
Gen. Pierce is the champion of Locofoco prin
ciples, (those principles, as defined by Cass,
Douglass, and other leaders of that party, as
partially radical in their character,) demand
ing such an intervention in be! alf of foreign
nations, as must necessarily plunge this coun
try into an unnecessary, unconstitutional, and
disastrous war. The election of Pierce, thus
committed on Kossuthism, must prove a terri
ble curse to America.

at Nashville that the Compromise had become
the law of the land, he denounced i ; in a public

; Gex. Scott. We have seldom read a mora
eloquent and noble tribute to Gen. Scott than
is contained in a communication which appears
in the New York Courier and Enquirer of the
6th instant. The writer, after commenting cn
the priceless public services of Gen. Scott, pro
ceeds as follows:
It is true that Gen. Scott is a military hero,
but is he nothing mure ? Is he nut throughout,
of thegrand heroic stamp in all that regards man
kind '? Who more wise in council ? Who
more patient of toil ? Who more unwaveriug
of purpose ? Who ?nore sagacious in the adap
tation of mean to end ? Who more prudent and
prompt ou the battle-field ? Who more careful
of the soldier's bloxl ? Who more forgetful
of injuries? Who more magnanimous to per
sonal enemies ? Who more generous to public
ones? Who more: constant and confiding in
private friendship? What man can say he has
maliciously wronged him ? What woman that
an impure look, or word from him has offend
ed her modesty or that ho has laid an unchaste
hand upon her ? No aTtatr, Yerigiptfujror social,
has Winfield Scott ! ever profaned 1 With the
prophet, ruler and ; patriot of old, he can fear
lessly challenge his people to say what man has
suffered wrong at his hands.
But some man will point you to what he calls
the foibles of Winfield Scott. If he has foibles,
who has not? What is the identity of each
man but his foibles ? Take those away, and
you leave not a being, but an abstraction of vir
tues and vices. In a long life of public duty
longer consecutively than that of any man liv
ing,) discharging trust after trust of the most
varied and often of the most complicated char
acters, in what he has failed ? What public
interests have these much magnified foibles
marred? Not one. Success, uninterrupted
success, has attended fivery affair of the people
which he has had to manage5. How his own
interests have sped he has little recked so that
his country's have been secured. Who shall
gainsay the truth of this ? The writer of this
repeats, call Winfield Scott to the bar of pub
lic scrutiny, and let impartial justice decide.
No, no ; there is nought there, thus far, for
America to regret, There it msitSst -but for
what sober reflection will show them that they
have deep cause for gratitude to the Great Dis
penser of events. Nought but to lead them to
pray that they may ever have Winfield Scott in
their hour of need.

which actuated all its members, for they were
passed by an unanimous vote. The resolutions
declare first, that as Whigs who had agreed to
a National Convention to nominate candidates
for President and Vice President, they are bound
by the action of the Convention ; secondly, that
the platform of principles, laid down by the
Convention, was fairly adopted, and that every
Whig is bound in honor to sustain them with
gooa faith; and that in the public and private
character of the Whig nominees, there was
everything to entitle them to the support of
every true lover of his country. .
The proceedings, of the State Convention and
these patriotic declarations of its members,, dis
sipate all fears of the vote of Massachusetts if
any were ever felt-t-and ensure that it will be
cast for Scott and Graham. Republic.

the steam ruhd out between decks, tore down

her passengers were at dinner. Every bodjr
here was either killed or dangerously injured.
The steam then passed up the chimney and
came out of the smoke pipe, which fell across
the hurricane deck, and broke it down. Above
deck no injuries were received except by 'the
engineers and cooks, but many persons threw
themselves overboard. Below, however, it was
that the great destruction took place, as the
boilers were underneath. We cannot yet give

PiTTSBORof, Sept. 5th, 1852.
At a meeting of the Whigs of Pittsboro' and
of its vicinity, held in thaiCourt House, on the
afternoon of Saturday, 4th of September, the
following Preamble and Resolutions were offer
ed and passed : .
That as we believe the ircat conservative re
publican pnnciples of the Whig party, are those
which are the best calculated to foster and de
yelope that civil and political liberty which it
is our peculiar privilege as citizens of the Uni
ted States to enjoy, and to ensure the perpetui
ty of that union which is our palladium ; there
fore be it Resolved,
1st. That as Whigs, we approve and pledge
ourselves to sunnort that 4u.ui;nn ,.r :r:
pies proclaimed by the Whigs of the Union, W
and determinations for the establishment and
maintenance of which our organization as a
party is effected."
2d. That in the time honored veteran, Gen.
Scott, the hero of Lundy's Lane and the con
queror of Mexico, we recognise a good Wlii",
an experienced statesman, an unflinching patri
ot, and a pure man.
3d. That as we have the most satisfactory and
convincing proof, not only from Gen. Scott's un
qualified adoption and approval of the Whig
platform, but also from tho uniform tenor of his
whole life, that he is tructo the South, and that
if elected President he will execute in good
faith the Compromise Measures, the Fugitive
Slave law included; we will, therefore, most
willingly and cheerfully support him as our
candidate for the Presidency.
4th. That in William A. Graham, our candi
date for the Vice Presidency, we recognise one
of whom North Carolina may well be proud,
and one into whose hands we may safely trust
our standard.
5th. That for the purpose of disseminating
political knowledge throughout our county, of
co-operating with our friends throughout the
Union, and of thereby ensuring our success in
the coming campaign, we form ourselves into a
Scott and Graham Club. '
Cth. That the f.iIlowino-U
gentlemen are hereby
elected officers of this CluLTto wit
A. lorrence,
and J. Man-
President, J. C. Poe, Treasurer,
ning, Jr., Secretary. :
7th. That a Coniinittee'of three be aonointed
by the President of this meeting, to draft a
Constitution and Bye-Laws for the government
of this Club.
8th. That this Club shall meet hereafter eve
ry Saturday morning at 11 o'clock, in the Court
House, at Pittsboro', and that the Whigs
throughout the county are earnestly invited to
attend. , ;
9th. That with the " Great Pacificator" and
" old Soldier," Gen. Scott, and North Carolina's
favorite sou, William A. Graham, for our cham
pions, we ha,ve nothing to fear.
10th. That as Whigs, fully convinced of the
correctness and importance of our principles,
and of tho merit, sincerity, and patriotism of
our candidates, for the office of President and
Vice Presidentj we will do all that Whigs and
honorable men may do, to securo their election.
11th. That a copy of these Resolutions be
sent to the Raleigh Register, Fayetteville Ob
server, and Hillsboro' Recorder, with a request
for publicatiom

RECOMMENDATION OF GEN. PIERCE.
In the speech of Colonel Kidder, before the
West Randolph Granite Club, we find the an
nexed statement of the whereabouts of the Free
Soilers in the present canvass, which we advise
our Democratic contemporaries of the Southern
press to copy. Col. Kidder thus speaks of Gen.
Pierce, with a perfect gush of "enthusiasm."

Felt cold to the sleepy flowera,
A smile passed o'er her Ups, she warf
To brighter worlds than ours.
They parted on her silent brow,

Who used to climb my knee-

As if they envied her that'world
Brighter than theirs, or ours.

And rule in heaven alone,
But he must fall in ashes yet,
