THE STAXPARD BAXTLINO. In oar Ut iim wt promiM to pj oar reopteU to-Jy to th precious "li'tle one,' which after m much tnrtil bj the Standard, Vutatbered into this breathing- worlJ, half ma Ja p, half foraeJ," on "VVedneadaj laat. We nodentaad oar friend' tactics full well, lie and the portkm of the Democratic partj with whooi he eo-operatea,hare,anfortanatelj for them, got bold of the weak aide of the Land ueoe, and oar neighbor seeks to hide the weakness of his position bj kicking up a dost of words aboat it- When the Standard lijs down tx calkeJr what it and what ii not Democracy, we Ten to re to inquire of him whence cooks his authority for so doing ? I'nlcsa Democracy takes new phases with erery piralel, and njeridiaa of latitude and bngitnde, and yet, by a loco foco miracle, beeoates the same erery where, we are sore that ia dirers portions of the United States the Democracy would repudiate the Stand ard's authority oa the Land question. Ala. him is a Southern Demoeratio State "after the most straiten sect" of the btate Ilights school, and yet she deems it eminently proper and exceedingly Democratic, to take the Public Lands girea to her by the Federal Uorersmeot. It will not do for the Stand ard t say that the Lands are within her Urritory, for the Standard mast either aban don his position or admit that- these Lands belonged to the FtJtral Govtmntht, and that Alabama acquired them by a gift from said Gorernment. It affects not the priuci. pie in the slightest degree, that these Lands were situated iu Alabama. If it would hare been unconstitutional to gire to Alabama 1'uUm Lands si to ted a thousand miles from her," it is no less mcomtitutional to gire to her the Lands situated in her territory. So, here we see, that the Standard on its own logic, would repudiate the Alabama Democ racy, and - be in turn repudiated by them. 'Such is the Catholicity of the principles of modern Deaoeraey ! ! Again, when we turn our eyes from the XiJ4-vest, and look towards the .Yurlh west, what do we see but erery one of the , six StatM, all demoeratio to the back-bone, greedily el etching at etsry aere of public land within their reach. Let as look at Illi- cots, demoeratio Illinois, the home of the Littlj Giant, who could at any time, if he were the candidate of the Party, git the earnest support of the Standard. Under the lead of Doaglas let us see what Illinois has done The annual reprt of the Tllincu Ceitral Rail road has just been mide, by which it appears i hit the grow earning of he road the pit jeer ' hTeheen $2 476.000 The prerioos year they were, 1,53000 locreaae,' ?944,000 The number of piseeDgpr was one-third larger tltAO the preriuu year.

The stock u n w seeing for $1S7 tr $ 100 given by the original holder. . These Lands were given away by a Dem oeratio Congress to a Demoeratio State, and yet the Standard proclaims it unconstitution al to give North Carolina and Virginia a fair share of that domain, no longer needed for any legitimate purpose of the Federal Gorero . ment, as if the same Constitution did not ap ply to Illinois and Alabama, that applies to North Carolina and Virginia Sack are the straits into which a bad cause will ran its advocates. Has the Constitution been chang ed since the days of Jefferson, Jackson and the better days of Gixxard Foot, or, to come down to later times, since -a Democratic mem ber of Congress from this, IUleigh District, who died in fall eommanion and fellowship with Democracy Dr. Mo.ntoom tar advo cated Distribution in a circular letter to the Toters of the 8th Congressional District of North Carolina, in manner and form follow ing to wit :" Housed jcumeut No. HJ, from the Secretary of the Treasury, Uit the whvkle aiuunt wV pubJic lanis, iq eicu of the SttU oJ Terr to res, to be 3 V)M,'2i2 acrn.

Was Dr. Montgomery erer repudiated by his rartv for this! Never. The Doctor lived in the county in which our neighbor wis born, and we have no doubt was in rub lio life as a Democrat before our neighbor was born. Can it be supposed that all these Democrats were either ignorant of their coun try's Constitution, or regardless of their oaths to support it, and defend it from violation, and that a sort of Joe Smith revelation to the Loiter Day Democratic Saint of the Raleigh Standard has brought the informa tion that , Distribution is unconstitutional ? Jefferson, Jackson, Wise, and Montgomery, all Democrats and all wrong, and the Ral eigh Standard all right on a constitutional poiLt ! ! Verily modesty hath not altogether left the. world, and it does our benevolent heart good when we see it manifested by a near neighbor, and he, too, a member of the fraternity to which we belong. It is really amusing to look at the fidgetty motions of the Standard. 'He seems to find no rest on the plains, on the ocean, or on the summit of the mountains Thus he gets tired of land, and, fitting out a large federal squad ron, "goes a siiling, a sailing," and tiring of that, "makes the light" on Hatteras wreck strewn shore, and actually, in denauoe of charts, breakers and rocks, brings in his fleet so near the land that at one bon'rd he 'jumps" (arrah ! bat he's a erayther to joonp) from the quarter deck of his flag-ship to the top of the Pilot Mountain, which he no doubt ho pas "will fall upon hi.n and cov er him."-- , It gives Uf pleasure to cone eda air abilities to the Standard, and we need nietter evi dence of the extreme weakri of bis cause, than the preposterous shifts ho resorts to to keep up a t4otr of discussion. 11 is running a parallel between the building of a navy for th purpose of "distributing" it afterwards, aad a fsir distribution of the lands oeded to the General Government, for certain now ac complished purposes, does not even approach the dignity of an argument um ad absurd um. It is unmitigated nonsense and nothing else. The lands were in existenc jby the fiat of the great architect of the Universe, they were not 6ai7 to b distributed, but were given by those who owned them to the General Go vernment on certain conditions, and trusts, and these trusts having been performed, and the government no longer needing them for any lawful purpose, the conditions require that the property remaining undisposed of shall revert to the original owners, or be dis tributed fairly among all the States accord ing to the deeds of cession. What earth ly parallel, then,' is their between the case of building np a monstrous navy for the pur pose of d;stributing it, and that of distribu ting lands already existing, and exercising upon the Federal Government the most cor rupting influences, as we are told by the highest Demoeratio authority, Pesident Bu chanan : Our neighbor seeks to divert attention from himself by twitting us with having left the Whig party to go ino the "culvert." Now, if this were true, it illy becomes the Standard to allude to it. When he ratted the Whig party, he went straight over, with out one moments pause, to the enemy's camp, and held concerning his old friend, the same "vituperative language,' mutatis mutan-tis, that he so freely used about his new. We, on the other band, never betrayed our old friends and joined their bitter enemies, nor did we eease to be a .Whig when we became an American. II UT WATER IN TUE PETERSBURG OOXGRESSIOXAL DISTRICT.

Hawks, D.DL. L.D., Fayetterille, N. C. Published, by E. J. Hale & Son ; Raleigh, IJ.-D. Turner, W. L. Pomeroy." We are' indebted to the Publishers for the first volume of the above named work. The high reputation. of - the author, aad the fact that to him it was a labor of love, to write .the history of his ownMs native State, caused the appearance of - his first volume to be ea gerly looked for by all, whether native, and to the manor born" or not ; for while the na tives of the Old North Stater either "the dwellers at homo" or "the dispersed abroad," will take especial pleasure in reading the history of their State, as chronicled by one of her most distinguished sons, the general reader cannot fail to be interested in a book shedding light upon the early attempts at colonizing the country, and tracing the his tory of one of the "Old Thirteen," down to the present time. ; The volume now bjfore us embraces the period between the first voyage of the colony under the auspices of Sir Walter Ralxigh in 1584.' and the last in 1591. The Messrs. Hale will allow ns to oongraU j ulate them on the handsome manner in which they have "done up" this volume. They have shown that a book can be well publish ed at the South, and we hope that this move in the right direction for "State Rights," may bo followed np. . . , - . - - r- 1 t tt7" The following resolutions were adopted by the American and Whig Convention which recently met iu Edenton, and nominated W. N- H. Smith, Esq., for Congress: j . Euo'vtd, Tint we hive unimpaired confi dence in the correctness of the principles of the American and Whig party, and a full apprecia tion of the necessity of introducing them into the administration of the government, for the p-.rpose of protecting our liberties and the insti tutions of the country from the dangers of an insidious fareiga influence which is. seeking to corrupt aud finally to destroy them. tUsdvid, That we bea-Uly approve ana nail wih pleasure the union of the American and Whig parties by the action of their National Convention parties, bound together by tne common ties of patriotism, by a distinguishing conservatism of views and feelings, and by op position to every species of corruption and double-dealing in the administration of the affairs of Government. . ; . Resolved That our late defeat, effected by the continuance of ambitious politicians in givins aa undue, promt nence to dangerous and exciting sectional issues, has not abated fine real in main taining the principles for which we contend, or our confidence in their success before the Ameri can people. j , .Resolved, That the question of slavery in the territories ought to be settled by the vote of the citizens of the United States permanently resi ding therein, at the time they form their consti tutions preparatory to admission into the Union as a State ; and that, at such elections, none but citizens should be allowed the right of suffrage. Resolved, That the wasteful appropriation of our public domain 16 private corporations or to the States in which they are located, is grossly unjust to Southern States of this Union, and es pecially to our beloved State, whose citizens are opposed with taxation to pay for public im provements, constructed in the new States by the General Government, out of -the public lands, which is the common treasures of all the States. . Resolved, That our thanks are due to and are hereby tendered to our late representative, the Hon. R T. Paine, and in voluntarily resigning to the hands of the people the trust which he has so faithfully kept, has proved himself emi nently entitled to their confidence. Resolved, That we will give the nonr'nee of this Convention our heaity support in the ensu ing election, having full confidence that he will use his efforts for the promotion of his country, and the good of his party. Serious Ai-feat at th Univemitt or Virginia Two Students Shot, Src. A cor respondent of the Richmond Dispatch states that on Saturday night last two of the stu dents at the University of . Virginia, ealled at a drinking house kept by a man j named Mtnnoni to get a drink, but finding that he had closed, they commenced knocking at bit door, when Mannoni went to his window and fired a shot gun at them, tne load taking ef fect in their faces. The Doctor examined their wounds end extracted therefrom some half dozen shot. He thinks the shot in the ear may prove fatal. The students, the next day, arrested Mannoni and two of his broth er, took' them out into, the woods, and were about lynching them, whem Dr. Manpin ap peared on the ground and persuaded them to let the law take its course. Whereupon, they returned to town and placed Mannoni and his brothers in prison. It appears that Mannoni'e brothers are in some way implica ted in the affair. ' ' i" A correspondent of the Alexandria Gacette states that the students who were shot are named Martin of Virginia, and Baxter, of Georgia. ' Martin was more seriously hurt than Baxter.

An Ikpostsr. A man calling himself Col. J. W. White has- been lecturing in the western part of this State and in portions of South Carolina, professedly for the purpose of raising funds to aid the pro-slavery cause in Kansas, but, as it now turns out, with an eye siugle to his own interest. ' White, it is said, has appropriated ,' all the money he las raised to 'his own individual use. ' He per suaded a number-of "people in Mecklenburg county in this State to sell out their earthly possessions and . emigrate to Kansas, prom ising to bear their. ., expenses thither ; bnt when they! had all assembled on the day ap pointed for starting, the gallant Colonel was missing, nor has he been heard of 9ince. He is denounced as an abolitionist, and we think it more than probable that he ts a represen tative of Yankee land. Should this imposter again venture to show himself in the western part of this State, he will doubtless meet with a warm reception from his unsuspecting dupes.
