Let Distribution candidates for the Legislature be brought oat in e?erj count j, and lt them go before the people, and aet forth their cause in a plain, business like manner. If there ever was a plain, bn aiaeas question, it is this one of Distribution, and if it is pat before the people, onembar rimed bj iasnes wbieb are in truth not real iwiee at all, ihare caa be no doabt that the common eeae of the voters of North Carolina will return a verdict in eoosonanee with their tro interests.

If tbwe things are pnt right before the- people, it were a libel on pcpalax intelligence to doabt the result. Piitributioa candidates for the Legislature bare a bright example in the patriotic coarse Uye Piitribulion candidate for tbe office of Ge terror." With a selFaenfieing spirit wor tbj of all praise, Dan ran K. McRae is de leting bis time and talents to a canvass of the State, with the view of awakening the people to a true sense of their condition, prospers and rights. Every where he is re warded for his arduous labors bv seeing scores upon scores of voters ralljing to bis staadard, and there can be no doabt of bis election, if Distribution candidates for the Legislature will come 'oat, and thoronghly caavaM ueeouniieA. it mail oe rememoer ed that while Mr. McRae is doing all that man can do, the very nature of bis canvass forbids him to speak at more than one place is a county, and it would be unreasonable net to suppose .that a good many voters will be unable to bear bio at all, bat will have to rely for information concerning bis views upon the garbled and unfair accounts given of the diseaxsion by the correspondents of asti Distribution newspapers. Now, all this class of voters can be reached by Distribu tion candidates for the Legislature. These candidates will have time to see and talk to all the voters in their respective counties, and thus be able most efficiently to co-operate ia accomplishing as great and glorious a rc rt as any patriotic people ever proposed to tbeouelres. Let candidates, then, come oat verjwhere, and give a portion of their time and talents to North Carolina, who now calls loudly on every son .wbo can serve her, to rally to her rescne from the bands of those wbo are preying upon her vitals, and vampire liie, sacking the blool from her veins. Granville, Johnston, Fraiklin, Bertie, Wilkes, Beaufor, PasqioUnk, and o ber counties, bare act glorious examples let them be followed by eyery county in the State, and let the snout go up from Curri tuck to Cherokee, from the Roanoke to the Cape Fear, "XortCanJinIler Prosper tyt Her Property, and Her Rights .'" THE CITIZEN AFFECTIONATELY EN TREATETII HIM. Mr. D. W. Spivey, of Franklin, must be a kri-beirted man if be can be deaf to the &ctiocat entreaties of the Standard to kek oot of the eontest for the Senate. The Cirixa'a bowels yearn most affectionately to rd Mr. Spivey, and bs has Mr. S. case wir praTerfol consideration.: Yoa bad better," Mr. Spivey,' we tell you, - Spirey, yQa had better -back, out, and cake your peace while the Citizen is in an ticLate mood, for if by bdaraey yoa tara bis lore for you to wrath, he will of a , tnity, tx, rtjtcf M4 utterly repudiate' Jra a a Democrat, throw you oat neck and Vildn, and slam the door in your face. U amd, Mr. Spivey. ' The letter of "Postmaster," to bis Kvr?oeetour Congressional Padre, deserves JVDUE r.LMS ASI) THE STANDARD Ar f.O;;ERU EADK HON. A. W. TENABLE. Citisen IlolJea after readi-g us a lecture uppn the tone of an article of oars, proceeds tod note a column of deoanoia ion to the Hon. A. W. Venable because he dared, with ont eonsohi g tbs Standard, to urge an old friend of his to become a candidate for the Legislature as an advocate of Distribution. This onalaaght will not surprise or injnre Mr. Veoable. He was fully prepared at any time for any amount of vituperation th Stand ard might level at him. He knew that the Standard had never forgiven him for beating his ardent admirer -mho did not think a seat in the EUecuive chair would add a feather to his cap out of sight. Bat the object of this article is not to defend Mr. Venable, for he need no defenoi at the hands of anybody from any assault made on him by the Stand ard, but to show bow widely the Stand vd and his fmvoriie and cherished candidate, Judge Ellis, differ in their estimate of Mr. Yenahje's conduct in t he-memorable campaign of 1853. () ' No longer ago than Monday week, Judge KUis declared at Oxford, that while he did uat know what Mr. Holden had said, hereto fore, about Mr. Venable, h, Judge Ellis, thought that Mr. V. had never been a duor- ginizer, and although it was not neoessary for him to say how he would hive voted had be been a voter in the District when ena ble and Lewis ran, yet he had said to a gen tleman in Granville, and still adhered to the opinion, that opto this time Mr. Venabh had Ypten tnii to the Democratic Prf.' Jiot, Jad ge Ellis, although he may have been ig- ii t i. i i, i . r 6 intof all the abae leveued at Mr. Vena- noran ble by the Standard, must have been aware that the Standard had anathematised Mr. V. as "a diaorganiier," and his endorsement of 31 r. Venable a a true Democrat at Oxford is just equivalent to saying to the Standard, "Yoa shall not do say thinking for sse, my fine fellow' We advise the Standard to write to bis favorite and cAe is W candidate, the Judge, and talk very eerious'y indoed to nun. it wiu never ao in tne wona xor any sr. . i i m body to be permitted presumptuously to en dorse one whom the Standird has excommu nicated. If Judge Ellis is allowed, with impunity, thus to fly ia the face of papal an tbority, we shall soon have every stump-tailed candidate for the office of oonstabla snapping his irreverent fingers in the very faoe of His Uoliness, and fearing his thunder not half as much as they do tbeoic "bull." Such "dis organization" must be crushed in the bud. Our Oxford corr Pendent, '-Grant Me," it will be aen, atavs that Jude Ellis said if he hsd been xoifr in the District, be would have voted for Mr. Verabla in 1S53, in hit conUSt with the Cit- lien's "ardent admirer." FREIGIITa ON TIIR RALnGH- GAS- TON. RAILROAD. We see by the last Warrenton News that there is a great deal of excitement in the counties of Warren and Granville, in rela tion to the freights on the Raleigh and Gas ton Road. We have been aware for some time that heavy complaints were made by the people below the j auction, of the discrimina tion made in favor of the upper counties, but hoped that relief would before this have been furnished. We are, however, glad now to be able to state that a committee has been appointed by the Raleigh and Gaston Com pany to confer with a committee of the Pe- tersourg company in maxmg a revision oi tae rates, ana we nope ana oeiteve mat mat ters will be adjusted to the satisfaction of all concerned. We cannot, we eonfeas, see tne jastice .or sound policy of dis criminating in freight against the freight producing country. We do not pretend to speak accurately, bat we are sure we do not err much when we say that four-fifths of the freight goingdown on the Raleigh k Gaston Railroad, and on to Petersburg and Rich mond, are taken up at and below Henderson. We cannot help thinking that, on the usual principles of trade and common sense, if dis criminations sre made, they should bo made in favor of the wholesale instead of a retail' customer, nor can we see that a man sending a hogshead of tobacco from Hendereon, 45 miles from Raleigh, to Gaston, should be made to pay very nearly as much as the man sending an article of equal weight and bulk from Raleigh to Gaston. We admit that a customer using the entire length of the Road should be charged something less for his freight than one using it a shorter distance, but the discrimination in favor of Wake and Franklin counties producing comparatively little freight for the Road complained of by our Warren and Granville friends is, we cannot help thinking, too great. In conclusion, we repeat our hope and belief that matters will be adjasted in a manner satisfactory to all parties. Whether Mr. Venable will "lead the boysn in Granville, remains to be seen. We trust be wilL Ltt him take tne field, and oar word for it, the gillant and Indomitable Democracy of that coun ty will ao finish him aa a politician that be will nsver again disturb our ranks by his selfishness aid treachery.- Standard. Your ltcordt for it ! In the contest for Congress between Rogers, Tenable and Lew i, your hcord turned out to be worth noth ing at all, for you then said Lewis was a stronger man in this District than Venable. Tour trord ." The people of Granville have been taught by jour past predictions to place a proper estimate on your 'word.' And even here in Wake, if yoa want to see the broad est smile that the human face can exhibit, just ask a Democrat what9was the 'VDord of the Standard aa to tho respective strength of Tenable and Lewis ?

THE BENrONTRE nr.TWEr.N MESSRS incRAE AND ELLIS We were very much in hopes that the rencontre between Mews. MeRae and Ellis which had been settle! in an amicable and honorable manner would have been given over to oblivion. It wis an ooourrenoe maoh re gretted by tVe parties and their friends, and after its adjustment, thera was a general wish that no more should be said about it. We were, therefore, sorry to find an article in the latf. Standard in reply to a paragraph in the " Watchman," whioh is well calculated (we da not believe it was designed) to beget auraosjion wnicn cannot possibly do any good, and which may do hirra. We are very sure that neither of the candidates desire to make capital out of the rencontre, and, as a friend of Mr. MeRae, we should have been content to have left the matter in the condi tion in wh;ch the e ird of Messrs. Uaughton a d Whitford plaoed it, but as the Standard roundly charges that Mr. McRae "gave the first insult," and thereby wrongfully provok ed the fight, justice to Mr. McRae requires that we shall give the testimony of an eye witness.. We shall give the testimony as it wis given to us, and then dismiss the subject forever, In Judge Ellis opening speech he charged that Mr. McRae's election "would be a tri umph of the Black Republican Party." To this allegation, Mr. McRae replied as follows, "My election a triumph of the Black Repnb licans! -my election, howl how!" At this point, Judge Ellis rose with violence and exclaimed, "Yes, I say it would." Mr. Mo- Rae.in reply, said "Why!" Jadire Ellis MM AaA i ... ... .. ,, . reponded, "by umUng with them," or words . .. . . ..t. , , , lumk eujoi, iu wuica bit. iuense repiiea, "that is false." Judee Ellis then struck Mr. McRae, and promptly got a blow in re turn. This account is more than confirmed by another eye witness, the Editor of the Kin s ton Advocate, who says that when Mr. Mo- Raeeaid, "encouraging Abolitionist, indeed! flow!" Judge Ellis replied, from bis seat, "I say it would enoourage them," and at this point rose from his seat and advanced to wards Mr. MeRae, "in a very excited and threatening manner, with clenched fists, mak ing some remark which we (the editor of the Advocate) could not hear, to which Mr. Mc Rae replied, "I say it is falsa," whereupon, J udge Ellis struck him the latter returning the wow," &o. , - ! As this is the first time we hare published the particulars of this difficulty, we hope it will be the last time that wa shall have oeca- "n w a vert 10 ir. aoe fctandard, wuose editor did Hot set the fight, dwells much on Mr. McRae's "insnltine manner." The Kin- , .

We leave an intelligent publie to decide which is the most reliable testimony as to the facts that given by a witness wbo was far away from the spot at which they traas- pired, or that given by a witness who was present and saw all that did transpire. A MASONIC EDITOR NOT PLEASED WITH HIS INN. The worthy Editor of the Weldon Patriot visited Wilmington a few days since, to at- ten(U meeting of the Grand Chapter of Roy- al Arch Masons. The trip was a pleasant one, except in one very essential particular. His hostelry was by no means to his taste, inasmuch as be found that the quality of the entertainment was in the inverse ratio to the quantity of the charges. But we will let our contemporary give his exposure of the "Car olina Hotel" in bis own words : Arrived at Wilmington, we took an Omnibus and drove down to the Carolina Hotel, where we found a sufficient amount of etiquette, if not of comfort. This House is kept, we believe, by a man of the name of Uage, pernaps from the peculiar Ulent which he has of measuring the exact capac ity of his visitors' pockets ; certain it is he got pre cisely to the bottom of ours, and such we under stand was the case with most of our friends who had the mi-fortune to stop at this high-sounding establishment. Hair brushes nor coat brushes are kept in said establishment, as it is said that persons visiting the Carolina Hotel, are peculiarly apt to take a fancy to steal such articles, the sad consequence of which was, that neither our head nor Editorial coat were brushed during our sojourn of five days at the Carolina Hotel : besides, we have two eggs due us there yet, which we ordered on the morn ing of the 10th and 11th inst-, and which we have no doubt will be ready and forthcoming by the time we make our next visit Our friend Hyett, of Guilford, fa also minus a plate of clam soap, which he was politely told wOuld be ready by the time be came again. So much for the Carolina HoteL We wish the proprietor would change the name to Virginia Hotel, or some other, as we fear we sre not the first whose patriotism has led them into that terrible place. So much for the Caroli na Hotel. THE GREENSBO ROUGH PATRIOT. The editors ot this ably conducted journal have Just issued their paper in an entire new suit of type, printed upon a new power press, and in a much enlarged form. The Patriot is now the largest paper in the State. The editors have also very appropriately, we think, dropped the "Flag" part of the name of their paper, which was added to the "Patriot" sometime since, when the Lex ington Flag was purchased and merged into the Greensboro' Patriot. We congratulate the editors of the Patriot upon the evidences of their suc cess which the improvements they have made indicate, and wish them in the future prosperity commensurate with with their ability and fidelity to the right cause. Wilkes Co'cktt. We understand that Mr L. B. CArmichael, a distinguished gentleman of Wilkes County, has announced himself a candi date to represent that county in the Senate of North Carolina. Mr. C. is a staunch distribu tion ist, and will, without doubt, be triumphantly elected. We are glad to see so many of our dis tinguished men coming forward to accept seats In our State Legislature. t& Mr. W. H. Putney having determined to remove temporarily to Morehead City, requests ns to withdraw bis name as a candidate fbt the J Ooe of Shexiat oC WaJaa County. TOB TH BEGI3TEH Haywood, ChRtbara Co., N.

In no manner can this end be so effectually accomplished as by the wide spread circulation of a Great Central Newspaper, which shall contain th disenssions of Congress, the official papers of the Government, nowerful editorial reviews, foreign and domestic intelli gence, inventions and discoveries, brief notes of tne arguments and proceedings of the Supreme Court of the United States, scientific, aommercial. and miscellaneous papers; all, in fact,, that can render a paper useful, instructive, and amusing. ao accompiisn tnese ends, "The Daily Union" will be reducad in price, and the Semi-WeeWlr and Weekly editions will be much enlarged. The different editions will be forwarded to subscribers at the following prices always in advance." Xow, sir, I am not aware that my duty as Post Master warrants the expectation that I shall aid in the circulation of any Newspaper,' whether it be a KJreat Central Newspaper Organ," or an outside 10x1-2 concern, and you must really excuse trie for not complying with your request I am well aware that the "Democratic Party" is in a stato of terrible alarm at "the threatening condi tion of " their "affairs," but can do nothing to relieve them, nor can the Washington Union. hy, sir, if I was to try to circulate the Wash ington Union, I couldn't do it.

Spivey, Esq , of Franklin, is to be snuffed out, " disowned and utterly re pudiated," because forsooth he too, has the auda-ri-ty to exercise the right of a free citizen under our constitution, and become a candidate for the Leg islature, without the consentof the Snuffer out General of the Standard. By what authority dose Mr. Holden claim the exclusive control of every man belonging to the. Democratic party ? And wbo informed him, as long as this in ad vance of the election, that Mr. Spivey cannot be rlecUsi'Have the peopla of Franklin transferred th right pf selecting their representatives to the ed itor of the Standard ? If so, when ? and where is the record of the transfer to be found ? -Perhaps some of those strong men that had come out for Lewis against Venable, that the editor was so frequently hearing from during that canvass, have again come out Tho people of Franklin hve notforgotten the game that was played then, and if the Standard dont look well to its right the good people of that County will undertake to act for themselves, and elect just who they please inspite of the dictation of that paper. They have independence of character, and a j tist sense of their rights, and self-respect jenough o rebuke this attempt of the Standard to tres pass upon their peculiar prerogative. Go on, 3Ir.

A let ter in the Alexandria Gazette states that great ex citement prevails at Washington, Rappahannock county, Va., in consequence of the alleged poi soning of a wife by her husband. The writer s-ays : The Wife of a man named Johnson was persuad ed by the latter to drink a glass of lemonade, which he had prepared for her. She tasted it, and told him that it was bitter, he then told her that he had put aloes in it, and that it was "good for her health." She drank it, after which he mounted his horse and rode off. . In a short time after his departure, her shrieks attracted the at tention of persons in the neighborhood, who re paired to the spot, but it was too late the fatal draught had performed its work. . An inquest,having been held, Johnson was com imitted to answer, but it was feared he would be ! rescued by the citizens and lynched. The Remains of President Monroe, as we learn from the Whigj will arrive in Richmond on the morning of the 5th July, (the 4th being Sun day,) aboard the steamerj Jamestown, and be con veyed to the Capitol, where they will remain in state, with a military guard of honor, until the afternoon. They will then be removed to Holly iwood Cemetery for final interment, under tie es cort of the entire military force of Richmond, and, perhaps, a detachment from one of ., teer regimen U uf New Tork city, i P. S. Since writing the above we observe that the services of the ftb. regiment of New York have been offored and accepted as an escort to con vey the remains of President Monroe to Virginia, the regiment agreeing to bear all theexpences, for the privilege. They will bring at leat 600 men, and have chartered the steam boat Alabama for the purpose. It will cost the regiment from $10, 000 to $15,000. ! The Canvass tor Congress.

NEWS OF THE DAY ; The Paris correspondent of the London Times gives a copy of the convention concluded between theGo vern ment of Costa Rica and N icaagua on the one part, and Felix Belly, ; acting on behalf of Mil laud & Co , of Parish on the other, relative to tho concession of the inter-oceanic canal by the river San Juan and Lake Nicaragua. The document is dated May 1. . , The ' company " are to commence work in two years, and complete it in six, and the channel of the canal is to admit two of the largest ships to pass abreast It is to be entirely under French direction, and that Government is to have the exclusive privilege of keeping two ships of war on the water of the route throughout the whole period occupied in the instruction oi the canaL The duration of the concession is ninety-nine years from the opening of the canal, and the line is to be open to all nags at a moderate unilorm toil. The Times pronounces this scheme imDrac- ticable, the capital being estimated at ten to nf- tecn . millions sterling. Appended to the above convention is a declaration . signed by the Presi dent of Costa Rica and Nicaragua setting forth the sufferings. they have endured from the filibus ters, a.id the risks they still runfrom fresh inva sions known to be in preparation, and, in reality, under the patronage of the United States Govern ment and appealing to the great Powers of Eu rope to sustain them in their independence, and not leave tne coasts of Central America at tne mercv of marauders, but enforce the observance of the public law. The destruction of life and property by the heavy freshets at the West is terrible. The last dispatches announce the breaking away of the Great Yazoo Pass in the Mississippi River, below Memphis. ' The water formed a new channel on Thursday night, thirty yards in width, and rapid ly increasing.; The deluging of the entire Yazoo Y alley Is apprehended as the result of this new calamity. The accounts from the upper portion of the Mississippi River are frightful. The town of Brooklyn, on the Illinois shore, has been nearly swept away. The City of Cairo, at the junction of the Ohio and Mississippi, ia entirely inundated ; but a later dispatch intimates that the destruction of property, in consequence of the overflow, will be less than was anticipated from the earlier ac counts. Ihe Ohio is falling, and the Missouri Valley Is reported nearly free from water,. Tho losses along the line of the Mississippi are the most serious, i News from Salt Lake City to the 11th of May ftates that Gov. Cumming had returned to Camp Scott, but that he was expected to go back again immediately, j Everything was quiet and indica tive of peace in the Mormon capital. The army at Camp Scott is reported in very good health. They had provisions sufficient to last until the 10th of June, and Col. Hoffman, with a supply train, was only a few days' march from the Camp. Up to the 9th of June nothing had been heard from Capt Marcy at any of the posts on the plains. Additional telegraphic advices from Utah, in form us that 70 Mormon families had come into Camp Scott and claimed protection, which had been accorded to them. From our Mexican files received by the Ten nessee at New Orleans, we learn that Sonora is in a state of the most complete anarchy. Guayama was unsuccessfully besieged for one week by two thousand Indians. Whole villages had been burned and the population murdered. Santa Cruz de Mayo hod boen entered by Indians and every man killed. The women and children were: con fined in a church and burned with the rest of the town. A battle had been fought on the plain of El Saucoto, between Pesquiera and Gandara, in which the latter was defeated and killed. 1 The former had pronounced in favor of Juarez. , The acting Mayor of New Orleans has pro claimed an amnesty for the proceedings of the " Vigilance" crisis.

Kane arrived here last nigrhti bringing dispatches from Govern or Cumming, whom he left at Camp Scott on the 16th ult ; The dispatches were at once delivered to the President of the U nited States, 1 heir pur Dort has not officially transpired, but it is ascer tained that many of the accounts with wh'ch the public mind has been occupied, are erronHil3-and calculated to deceive the country - in respect to Utah matters generally- To this fact many, at tributed the uncourteous refusal of Col. Kane to communicate with the press. There was great hope in Utah, as elsewhere, that the war was at an end. A peace party had been formed and was sufBcienty strong in time to arrest the march of the Mormon forces aeainst our own last spring. It was the impression In Utah that Brigham Young, who openly espoused the cause of the United States, would, in this re snect be able to maintain his position. There was at onetime stronenposition to him, before emi gration was resolvedupon, but ever since this feel ing of hostility has been subsiding. All tne nor thern settlements are evacuated with the exception of the few Mormons left to guard the public prop. ertv at Salt Lake City, i Besides these, there are no Mormons within forty miles of that citv. .
