DISCUSSION IN RALEIGH. Agreeably to appointment, the two Candi dntes for Governor addressed a large number of their fellow-citizens of Wake in this place, on Wednesday last. Mr. Bragg led off in a speech of two hours length, consisting mainly of a reiteration of " . . . . . . e i.- j j, i .v.: I frage. He denied what he said on the occasion of his deota in this IT . . Oity, a few weeks since. As we gave then a summary of his leading points, we shall not trouble ourseives,jor our readers with a prolix repetition of them, now. Mr. Bragg commenced with some allusionj to the passage of the Nebraska Bill, very freely d;nouncingthe Northern Whigsfortheirhostility to the measure, but studiously avoiding to men tion the fact, that forty-three "Nationality" Democrats from the same section voted againstit! He lauded the President to the seventh Ilea, ven for his promptitude in enforcing the laws against the Boston rioters, but purposely re frained from informing the people that Mr. Fillmore, for a greater degree of promptness and decision, received nothing but unstinted denunciation st the hands of locofocoism ! lie re defined, with evident embarrassment, his position upon the subject of Internal Im provement. He now goes the extensions, "from time to time," as the means and resources of the State will prudently allow, if, whenever that is, at some time or other, 4c. 1 And though he expressed a willingness to see the Rad ex tended upon the same terms that the North Carolina Railroad is being constructed, yet be shifted the responsibility of the declaration from his own shoulders, by stating that that matter would, after all, rest with the Legisla ture, the Governor possessing no power in the premises. It is a significant fact, too, that Mr. Brags failed to answer Gen. Docrert'h pointed interrogatory - "Have you ever showD, prior to this Campaign, by speech, writing, net, or in any other manner,, that you were friendly t Internal Improvements? On the contrary, did you not, in 184o, stump the county of North ampton, endeavoring to show that ike Whig party teas responsible for the investment of the . public money in the Wilmington and Raleigh, and Raleigh and Gaston Roads ? and in order to show this, had you not carefully prepared statements, giving the names of Wltiy wh. Toted for and the names of Democrats who vo ted against works of this character?" The ' truth Is that when' Mr. Braoo attempts to ex plain his position upon Internal Improvements, he struggles like a man in a morass. His friend of the " Raleigh junto" will have to drill him better, before he " trusts" himself to go " West 1" Upon the subject of the Publ'u Lands, Mr. Bragg was sufficiently explicit. He is out and out against our having any portion of our rights in them. He grossly under estimates their val ue, in the first place, and contends, in the se cond, that if they are as valuable as they are represented to be, we can't have them because a Imocratic President will veto any bill mak ing provision for their Distribution. ( Mr. Bragg seems to think that the Democracy have a per ptuity in the Presidency.) Besides, he tbonght the lands should be retained to meet any exi gencies that may arise. There was, no telling bow soon we might become involved in the pending European struggle, there was even now imminent danger of a collision with Spain. And here. Mr. . Br ago unqualifiedly declared himself, in case Spain, should kick. up an extra dido or two, in favor of taking forcible posses Sinn of Cuba, and, with an air of triumph, de manded to know Gen. Dockert's opinions on the subject I .Mr. B. next explained and en dorsed the President's doctrine of "prudent proprietorship" a doctrine which admits of his sanctioning large donations of alternate sections to Western individuals and corporations, which w ill not conOict (so says the "Washington Un ion") with his sanctioning the Homestead Bill, in the event of its passage, but which does conflict, constitutionally and materially, with donations to all the State, for purposes of the noblest charity 1 He alluded to Whig promisee on the subject of the Public Lands, and said that that party had been holding them up to seduce the people from their propriety ever since the days of ; 'Tippecano4 and Tyler," too. (Here the Editor of the "Standard," and one or two others within hearing of Mr. Bragg, were b served to wince.) But Mr. Tyler had vetoed the Land Bill ! Gen. Docksrt subsequently in formed Mr. Braoo that that was done after' Ty ler turned traitor and locofoco ! Mr. Bragg's argument on Free Suffrage a but the re-hash of what every, body heard from Oov. Keii, xcept" that the former is much more denunciatory of the Conventional mode of r.m?nding the Constitution, and, according to his own admissions, much more distrustful of the West, than the latter ever was. And here, the most indiscriminate abuse and offensive de famation of Whig! men and Whig measures; and he treats his competitor with an impertin ent affectation of superiority, -as ludicrous as it is unbecoming. Mr. Bsaog, too, clearly belongs to the society of "admit nothings." He denies everything. He would almost deny his own iden. tity, we verily bejipve, if it were necessary for him tosi;' But with all bis malignity and venom, with all his inflated assumptions, and all his abortive i Polk had ingl.iriously hacked out from 54 4CK, attempts at facetioosness, the heroic Brago is ; As an effective public speaker, Gen.

(Mr. Brago, in the course of his rejoin der, ridiculed this proposition, ai.d appealed to several young " limbs of the law" before him to sustain him, rwhich, of course they were very much delighted to do. Gen. D. replied that he was not learned, in Constitutional or any other kind of law, his vocation in life bad confined him to humbler pursuits, but, plain as he was, he knew enough of law to know that it tras based upon the rights of the people and common sense!) lie asserted, and offered to prove, that; Mr. Braog, in the East, had declared that it would be dangerous for the people of that section TO TRUST THE WEST in such a Convention as that proposed t by the Whig resolution, but that the nearer be aproached the West, the more silent he became on that subject ! (Mr. Brago will doubtless be a Convention man, if, provided, when, d-c.t by the time that he reaches the mountains.) Gen.

There was a time when the dame and Farewell Addres of Washing ton were held in reverence ; but who regards the latter now? Who studies his precepts, follows his advice, or heeds his caution? If he were now living, and were to give such ad vice and caution to the American people, he would be set down as the veriest "old fogy of the age." The idea entertained and earnestly impressed upon the American people by Washington, that we should deal justly by all nations, that we should keep our faith sacredly and inviola uly with them and with each other, the idea of Jackson, which is the same, but differently expressed, that we should "do right, and sub mit to nothing wrong," have become obsolete notions, an old woman's whims, very well for a nation which requires time and peace to become strong and powerful, but quite unbecoming, useless and ridiculous for a nation which has become sufficiently powerful to do as he pleases, to dictate laws to others, but obey none him self. In short, those ideas were very proper for that Jourg America whieh had just thrown off the shackles of sul jection and set up for himself without much capital, save his integrity and good character to sustain him ; A noble sentiment, nobly uttered I Were not j but quite inappropriate and inconvenient for the cheek of locofocoism made of bronze, it i the new "Young America," who, having out would have blushed under such a withering re buke. , Internal Improvements next claimed the General's attention. It was only necessary to consult the Legislative records of the State to ascertain where he stood and where the Whig Party stood, upon this question. lie had al ways been fr Internal; Improvements, and had shown his faith, on many occasions, by his works. He spoke, of the benefits they bad al ready conferred upon the State paying, in this connexion, a very handome compliment to the town of Wilmington, and expressed: the confident belief that, with a Railroad from Beaufort to the mountains completed and in operation, North Carolina would rank second to none of her sisters. In connection with this question, he discussed that of ths Public Lands. With our share of those lands, the onus of taxa tion would not fall so heavily, if at all, upon rich wi'low at vv asnington, ttiat matrimonial . mart, nii is now travelling in Europe, ; has found a shorter cut to the Pacific.
