KAL.EICII. X. C. S VTrRDAT MORS1XO, JITLY IT, MR. 1 B. S . . We inrite tbe attrn'ioo of ocrreaders to tU letter cf Mr.. P- Saader to tie Senior Kditor of the Slandard. The course of the Standard toward 'Mr. Sander has been, to ne the mildest word, crrecdingly illiberal. lUvaise Mr S.,in the exercise of his right as a frreir.an, set forh in a eoraaionication to the Standard, hi tiews on a snbjet of vital importance to the S'tte, he w taken up by he Senior Kditor rf that paper and Ignominy 1 oafly expelled from the Democratic party of which be had alwajs.beea a faithful and ef ficient mrxnbcr, and a member too, when the maa vbo nafrocked htm as a Democrat, was aging as nolent war upon Democrats as he j now waging upon hii former friend.

They know their in fvrfcitcd his right to foil fcllowhip with the J tercsts, and fiod iu Mr. McRae an advocate iVmucratic party, it. was peremptorily de- J much more eloquent, and fair, and practici aied to hiu, and consequently he was ent off j ble than bii opponeut. For he knows and from a hearing before all the readers of the j everybody cle knows thai there aro not Standard Lo do not take the KegisUr", half a doen Democratic candidates iu the Tins was the Standard's condutt to Mr. San.

We particularly call atten ion to Mr. bander views on the fioances. He has serv ed several years in the Legislature, and is well informed on the subject cf which he treats, ills statements -are eminently wor thy of the grave consideration of every man aha values the prosperity and the credit of the Sta'e. Mr. Saaders gives no idls ror chtsfit guesses.or conjectures about accounts to be met, bat takes Mr. H;Utns oxn Jij urtt, and shows what mast be paid if Mr Iloldes's views and recommendations are ao ccWced in by the Legislature. We are per fee'Iy iiDcerewhca we say that so election" in the last hJf cea'ary has beeafraaght with cocsf qaenees so vval to the best intcre?ts of Nonh Carolina as will be the one which is to tak- place in August. If we know cur se If, we do not speak as a party man, seek ing a mere political triumph on federal party ground. Tbe time has come when State in-, teres ts, too long subordinated to federal pir ty politics, should cease to be so. What ben efit does a Demccra, a Wbigr, or American derive from a triumph in federal politics, to rompeaiate for peeing either the S:ate credit prostrarcd with excessive State debt, or tbe State's citixens prostrated or driven beyond her borders by excessive taxation? Answer this question, Mr. Iloldea. Tell ua if the voter in Johnsfn, or Wake, or any other county, when he pays next year one-third more taxes than he paid this year, will find any consolation in the fact that he helped to lect Judge Ellis, who stands npoa a platform staining Mr. Buchanan's Administration! Or, tell us if the farmer who is compelled by hizh taxes to break up aad move from the :te, leaving the, homes and the graves of , 1 U fathers behind hiiu, will find much to sus tain Liuiio his jjurney to his new aad dUtaut hoiue in the reflection that he helped to elect ; a Democratic, antPDb:ribuli;n Legislature h-ch impofKlbigh txcs on the people, while it ohatica'cly refused to claim projny be locgbg to tLe Stmtc, and which, iu b rpis-w.-sion, would obviate the ueceseity of any taxation whatever? These arc plain question. Will you as wer theis oaliigbt, and cease to obecure and eccfovad the aiuJ ol your readers by luiacr alle yarty appeal, loo?e and I-.fry genera li ';s. and wretched efplurieo? JlDCi: ELLIS UPON I K.

We ma?t hare Railroads, lished statement in tbe Standard to sustain ana nmuif w....,fc taxation'. That is the doctrine of patriotism. . . . j j . i It u the positum supported and advocated with surpassing skill and eloquence by Mr. McRae. His rea.onfe in that rugged, tut patriotic portion ef the State. No corps of reporters and puffers fill the papers with fle and ridiculous accounts of hid achievo- menu, but his arguments fill h the people whom he add rc,, and bn march has been one of triumph. In the counties of A?he, Watanga, and CMdwell alone, we are assureu ma oe win ar-ra irmu io iwv on the vote of Mr. Gilmer. We are also as- sured that the feeling cf the people West of hce counic?j has been grossly misreprcsent- Teuuefe-ee line, without first providing otue ; t i - .. i way ot paying lor u ot$iae, oy increase wr- , ation. The Democratic party cannot, and U nut, make that Road on a credit. They j talk alout it, and thiuk the Western people are soft enough to trust their promises. They will i.ot perform their promises. They do not intend to perform them. They never have intended it, since the. last session of the Legislature. Mr. McRae has seUthis matter all right io the Wen by explaining his posi tion not by dianging it, as has been false ly alleged. The people. there see that he is right hece these tears ! At Lenoir, in Caldvell county, there was was much enttm- mm and the streets were made vocal wi:h hurras for McRae! - At the meeting at Wa tauga of the candidates for Gubernatorial honors, after full discussion, though one-third of the people at least were Democrats, there were not half a jfozea oat of 150 who were fcr Jadge 1115." Ia truth His ex-Honor is evidently alarmed, aad, io many iastacces, is counting without bis host. He counts on friends who will surely vote for Mr. McRae, and who do not choose to say so publicly, be cause they have no relish for the appliance of party screws which would surely follow. They choose to do their duty quietly, but it will be done effectually when the day comes. Let the friends of Distribution take courage. The work is progressing bravely going on. . We are not working agiinst hope as the De mocratic papers say. We play not the game ot'brag. We leave thai to our neighbors. Rat we are assured that a hopeful and con fident feeling i abroad and gaining ground. Mr. McRe has had. to fight his way up, al nfost alone. His fcingle-hanl.-d brave-spired contest with tbe myrmidons his won tbe admiration of all. He has done well nobly. Let the friends of Dis'ribution, and of their country, do half a well as be, and our hdnest old inotLer may yet hold up her head among tbe proudest States. We hope the friends of tbe cause will dare to do their duty. We believe it. Come up to the good work, all who appiovc it, and success is certain with at lea Ul'.m.'U to epae. ' TI1K TAXES. The different sheriff of this State are nw crgaged in making a feeling and irresistible appeal to the people on the subject of taxa tiou. Their arguments are so forcible that they miy well be characterized as "knock down" argument", for if one of tbeir hearers j turua a deaf ear to to au earneet appeal, he ! wi'l soon find hijaj roperty knocked down to j the highest bidder, and see the proceeds, or apuitiwnbf the proceed, q iietly placed in the Ci ller .if the State. The time was when the peoj le f North : Carolina were not star tled by the hriflV cry cf "settle up." A t4X gathering was a bociable gathering of 1857.

The power of the free gate pemocracj ; ,hc next National Con- vention will be overshadowing, and if a i goutte rn man, or a man trne to Southern I Rights, gets the nomination, he must owe it j to Northern votes. Is it likely that any j eucb candidate will be nominated? We ( tliink nof. The Democracy of the Northwest are divided, hopelessly divided, and it is yet j to be seen whether the Douglas or anti-Le- compton Democrats, or the Administration j or Lecompton Democrats, are in a mj )nty. Let that, however, be as it may, another question recurs, to wit: Supposing a man satisfactory to tbe Southern Democrats shall get the nom-mttion) wiI1 ho g;,, a BnfScient number o( eIeotoral vote8 the vorth to effect j,;, eiectjon i xtg are qneai0I)a well calculated to startle the Democracy of the South the party which, while affecting to be tbe extremest sticklers for the Constitution, have, in fact, so far ignored it as to rely for protection on a Northern organization of party politicians, instead of its plain and ua- tnistakeable provisions.' .We, as a Southern man, have always felt humilia'ed at the idea that the Rights of the South depended on the action of Northern politicians, instead of upon the provisions of a contract binding on all tbe States alike. We will not detain our readers longer from a perusal of the article which we copy from the Virginian : . j Tnr PaosprcT. The numb of votes in the electoril collece at the last Presidential election was 29C etcb Suite b"ing entitle to as many as the aggrpate of her Representatives and Senators- Thus, Yngiiiia, with thirteen representa tives and two Senator, nas fifteen votes in tne Electoral O'lle. Kentucky, with ten Rppre entatives. has twelve; and Florida and Delaware, though with only one Representative esch in the lower House of Congress, are yet entitled to three votes apiece in the Electoral College. The small est States thus have an advantage in the Electoral College, according to their relative population, over tbe larger. . Since tho last election, Minnesota has been add ed to the Union, making four more votes to the Electoral College. Thi. carries tho number up to 300. And before the election of 1860, it is very probable that Oregon, Kansas and Nebraska will ulso be brought into tbe Union, making nine ad ditional votes. There will thrn be 309 votes in the next Presidential election, and it will require 15 to elect. -; The whole South, united, can east but 120. It will then require the unanimous vote of tLe South, together with 35 Northern vots to elect a candi- ! iiue. can tnefe mirtv-nve. former n vote he counted on for any member of the Southern De mocratic party ? - j The Democracy are under an implied obligation to run a Southern man as their candidate the next time. AVith the exception of Tolk, they have not had a Southern candidate since 1832 a period of 25 vears. fiut what is the prospect of the nomi nation of a Southern man in the next Democratic Convention? It is well known that the "two thirds rule.'7 as it) is called, is always adopted by them. It will thus require two-thirds of 309 to nominate which is 206. The next' Democratic candidate- mw-t get 206 votes in the National Con vention and the South only casts 120. Can any Southern man we mean a Southern man in truth, not a tcmporiier and dodger receive 86 votf from the North ? We rgard itas vry doubtful ; and. unlcs he does, the consequence will le the j nomination of-anothcr Northern man. This, then. U the only show that the South ha.-, ( in the next election, from tbe Democratic party. Two vry improbable things must occur first, that the ove-ynolming Northern majority in the Democratic Convention will consent to the nomi nation of a Southern man and, secondly, that a Southern mn. so nominated, will get 5 electoral votes in the .North, besides tho entire South.1 Is the prospect a pleasing one ? " ; 5; ? -Toe Democracy have always claimed to be the especial and peculiar friends of Southern, institu tions. We are not aware thai tbe South basthriv d so particularly well undr their rule but. jfv ing them credit for all they elaiw, we ask what U their prospect lor the next election? Can, they name a single Northern State in which they have the thgiiiertehance of aucce&s ? Experienct:, then, having demonstrated tbeir utter incapacity to mtvo or aave the South, is it &ot best that they yield their organization, and cor.fefs ttemlvj unable.to preserve Southern rights and Southern boner? That party having proved entirely ineul cienr, would 11 not be better for the people to re po their cor.Siencc in soma pthr ? W e fubmit the question. ' , . , . . . ; - .. . i - .

It mighsj read with the same sig nification, "To the victors belong tbe spoils." We recommend to our neighbor, as very ap propria'e, and coming home to the hearts and the backs of his Democratic brethren, the following truly characteristic sentiment which wis urged with great unction in a late De mocratic State Convention : "It is charac teristic of a'good Democrat, that he is as per fect tn obedience as be is absolute in command While he is a private in the ranks, he feels : . , , .

NIAGARA AND THE GREAT LAKES VIA NORHERN CENTRAL RAILROAD From the Baltimore "Exchange" of JuJy 7. : By the new Vail way schedule of the Northern Central Railroad Company, which will be found in our advertising columns, also in the Raleigh Register, it will be seen that the hours for the running of, tho train 3 have been changed. This modification has been made to accommodate the through travel over. the road, now that close con nexions have been formed with trains over the Williarasport and Elmira and the New York and Erie and Cannandaigua roads. A simple reference to the schedule will show bow great a saving in point of .time and expense travellers to the Lakes or to Niagara Falls may experience by taking this route to Niagara and the Great Lakes, as compared with the route via New York. If we add to the noticeable difference in distance some two hundred miles less by the Northern Central railway than by. way of New York the picturesque character of tbe scenery through which tbe Northern Central railway passes, and the perfect ease with which Buffalo and Niagara can . be reached in about seventeen hours, the route winch possesses these advantages can scarce rv need further commendation.

HoLDKV-Sir: , . -, Over twelve months ago, in the exercise of your assumed prerogative as dispenser of benifices to and dictator-general for, tho Democratic' r party you formally read me out -of that party. , ,Ir, my reply, 1 vindicated and established my opinions and positions, and showed, " unanswerably," th&t deposit was a federal-measure--tbat ; to borrow money, from the Treasury of, the United. States was not Southern policy was not Democratic doc trine. You refused to publish that reply, thereby cutting me off from all defence against "your charges, and doing my friends, the readers of your paper, the injustice to keep , them in ignorance of my opinions. After retiring from a controversy in which you felt.you.were, and would be worst ed, you permitted a number of articles to appear in your paper over the signature of 44 Pinebur Moccasin," in which you undertake to ridicule tha unpretending and unambitious name I bear, thus protecting yourself behind a battery . which you felt assured I would toot assail. .'"You have there remained safe and secure for more than a year. observe, to-day, that ifi your paper of the 23d of June, you have ventured out from your place of concealment, and charge me with 4 consorting " with others in efforts to disorganize and prostrate the Democratic party. Now, sir, be brave, stand your ground andfieht like a man. Do not retreat again behind a breastwork which you know wjir not. attack. But you may fear and tremble. for my shot will not miss their mark. They are well nimod and directed by a steadyr though un practiced arm. - v - It is a fact that Mr. Buchanan and Judge Ellis areb6th jn favor of the alternate section prihciple a principle or tne Cincinnati piatiorm upon wnicn the disposition of hundreds or millions ot dollars worth of public land depends. It is a fact, that W.'-.W; Holden, Editor of the Standard, the feat friend and especial advocate of both these gentle men, who. damns every man with fa spot" who differs in the least with him or them, is directly, without equivocation or reserve, against it. We would vote against it." ' Whose language is that, Mr. Holden? Dare you diner with the Presi dent and Judsre Ellison so important a question ? And differing from Tn em as you do, now dare you claim to be a Democrat? VV hy, sir, you read yourself out of the party, the result of habit; perhaps. You disorganize the very forces which vou assume to lead. 1 leave you in tne dilemma, Get out if vou can. It is a fact, "that you, W, W, Holden, are for - involving thevState in debt fur the completion of the Central Railroad to tho Tennessee line "at once." . " Our belief ia, that the sooner this extension is made to the Tennessee line, the better for the State and all Its roads," &c, " Would it not be better, then, to vncrease oar Shite doht at once, so as to complete our svtem. &c ? - Who uses tb'n language ? V. W. Holden, E-hj , the great rcader-tut and arbiter of political destiny in North Carolina. See Standard, July 7th, 1858. Why, sir, I thought, according to the platform, that internal Improvement was to go on by degrees, M as Jar as tne means and resources of the State would allow, and the people be able to bear." Ihis is wtat you have been "aying au along ; and now you tell the . Depocratic party they miist take 'the. ,whole dose at once Do you think they will swallow it? . If they do not, will you read them out, or will they read yoa out ? You propose to add two-thirds of five millions two the Wes'ern Extension alone. (The cost will be nearly, u not quite double tnat amount, fcut i take your own figures.) This will, increase taxa tion two hundred and eight thousand dollars. Add this to the interest now paid by the State, 420,000. and vcu have the beautiful sum . of 3628,000 of interest to be paid annually by taxa tion. Nor is this all. . In 1859,. next year, ycu have to pavi $200,000" of principal, and the year after, I860", $500.000. ; Tak the last, add it fo the amount of interst,$628,000, to be paid when the bonds for tha .Western Extension are sold, if oid by I860, and you have to tax the people to pay ?l,l28,"ft1jor- that year. And tbtsls not all. . You must addithetprdinary expenses of adminis tering your State geweassaent, about 535,000, making $1,213,000, to be paid ra 1860, besides the endorsemenuyou may have to pay, to what amount no one can now . tell. Can tne people bear all this taxation ? Is this your Democracy ? Is this the construction to be put on the Charlotte platform? ' Is Judge Ellis with you on this ques tion? If so, und tbe people of Johnston can.be induced to believe it,' his vote will be small in this County. But this is only part of the system. The Fayetteville Road, the Rutherford Road alone the South Carolina line, &c., &c, must all re ceive State aid, by endorsemen ts or other wise. Stop, Mr. Holden, stop. "' in the name of the democra cy , which you profess, I beg yon to stop, and do not use your powerful influence to the uttetf ruin of the people of you native State. Remember, our resources are limited. We are poor, as a State, and already owe as much as we are able to pay. Before you urge us lurtner in dent begin to calculate and show us how we are to pay the In terest only, to say nothing of the principal, which is now bojrinning to fall due."- A man who owes so much that it takes ail he. makes to pay the in terest on his debt U in a bad fix, and - is likely to leave a poor inheritance to his children. So with a State. Look you, sir, at the present revenue of the .State, $524,000 in round numbers, add the in crease of taxation which you propose, then put on the principal, which will fall due from year to year, and must be .paid. Calculate, figure, show us, east and west, how we are to pay it, and until vou do it, stop charging Democrat wh6 are against you on this question . with being disorganize!- Democrats who are tor retrenchment and relorm who are for looking before they , leap who are against creating a debt which thy are unable to pay. The Democrats of Johnston teel no hostili ty to the west. They would be glad for them to have railroad tacuities; but they-. .think it would ruin the State; both east and west, undertake to build them now. in debt as we. are. and. likely to be for yearFtd Come, and they askou not to urge a measure Wh!cn will so greatly increase taxation. They do not consider themselves pledged to it, and will not support the men who advocate it. Upon this question, then, they are . against you. - Will you read them out of the party, or must they read you out? ,1 leave you,w this second dilemma with a hope of seeing soon how you get out of it. Perhaps, you say, you did not read me out of the party upon Internal Improvement, but upon the question of Distribution; .Very well, let as look at that a little. Over a year ago, our Representa tives in Congress declared that there was a surplus in the Treasury ' of the United States of about, thirty millions of dollars ; that it must not stay there " to feed hungry cormorants and strengthen the hands of power ;'" that it had better be ('sunk in the boitom of the ocean j" that it ought to be returned to the peoDle who had been robbed of it, and they all voted to lend It to the States. It was siiid that deposit "amounted to distribution;' that it -" was one and tbe' same thing," for it never would beCalled for. In all this, you sustained tkein. I never did anything ty indirection. I saw dan gir In, the' proposition to .lend money to. North arolina in this way. -It was said deposit would " fter and-encourage works of Internal Im provement.
