Oat liberal contemporaries of tL G reensbo rougk Patriot will please do us tbe favor to exsase oar not being ia tbe slightest de gree mortified at being called bj them tbe ostensible organ, or bjr their reference to tbe p'aee of oar nativity. We never claimed to be aa organ, eitber real, or ' os tensible, nor are oar mental "perceptions scats eoosgb to tee what earthly connec tion there la between a Railroad from (ireeos boron gh to Danville and party poli ties. This Road is suppor ted and opposed bj Democrat aod Whig, without reference, to part j polities, and we would suggest to tbe Pal not that if tt desires to: get tbe con nection bill pasted at tbie time, it would be rather unsafe U rge it as a Whig measure. Tbe following senleuee, ia their editorial, ia a Terj imprudnt one for tbe advocates of eonneetioa, and if they write many soeh, they will tare us tbe trouble of writing anj thing more against tbe eonneetioa .scheme, and girt occasion to its friends wof all j to exclaim, Save as from our friends J" ; II baa been a source of much regret ta its that we bare been ao often compelled to diflVr with tbe orteniU organ- of our party ia regard to blatters of Slate policy, and we bad hoped that lb Danville Connection wm a nMMirt on which could agree, and that we could - heartily co ojrate ia carrying cut, what, ia this respect, we conceived ta be tbe wishes of tbe "Whig party. Now, we will not be ongeteroos and un- Dagnanunoas enoagb to take ad rentage of tbe abore sentence, and impress npon a Democratic Legislature tbe fact that tbe Pan til le eonneetioa project is, ia tbe estima tion of one of its champions, a scheme com manding tbe wishes of tbe Whig party." For one, we do not believe that eitber Wbig rerjor Democracy is any, the slighest element ia tbe question. To as the ilea is utterly prepoateroas that' partj polities can enter into tbe calculation as to whether the eonneetioa should be allowed, or how the measure could be deemed expedient, or inexpedient, as it might effect tbe relatire strength of tbe Whig and the Democratic party. Why, just look at it Got. More head, a Whig, is the advocate of connection, and be has Mr. Speaker Settle, and all the Democracy of Rockingham and Caswell, as co-operators with him. According to the Patriot, if Got. More head succeed, it will be a Whig triumph, and of course, a Dem ocratic defeat. Messrs. Settle 4 Co. would, we take it, kick up high against inch a con clusion ; and justly tbej might, for the question is simply one of domestic Slate policy, and ia do other point of view can it be regarded, and we would not treat it in aay other light, if we were, instead of the " ca'ecaible the thrice annointed and oni Tersally acknowledged rml " organ of tie Whig party f North Carolina. We cannot see any inconsistency in oar pre test position as contrasted with tbe one we oe cspied when we supported Mr. Me Use for the tfice of Governor. We regarded Distribu tion as the great issue in the campaign, and it m so regarded throughout the State! At tbe Tery outset, when the candidates met at Charlotte, it was expressly agreed by them that tbe Danrille eonneetioa should not be as issue in the canvass, and each gentleman declared that if be was elected Governor, he mld refrain from suing aay ofitfiel- infla me, pro or com, on the quest too of the Dan vuie conaeettoo. SI PKEWC COt RT Jl'UGC The election of Jaige Ruffin to the Sn rtme Coart Bench will give great aatisfae tioa ia all quarters of the State, ami is one hem to be set down to the credit of this Democralio Legislatere. It m true that it isaViabtfal whether Jadge RnSn wSlaeeept, k'it that e ire omstaace decs net deprive tbe Lefislstare of the credit of making aa effort to tec ore to the tate the service, , as a Bcmber of her highest jedieial tribunsJ, of se of the most profooad lawyers ia the tnioo. Since the above was written, we have re ceived information which we are gratified to mj warrants the belief, that Judge Roffin ill accept tbe office to which be has been tlec'ed under cirenmstancee so creditable alike to the partj elected aod the body Seeling. .

In oar advertising columns will be ' found tbe Prospectus ftf the JVew York Ledger, which contains all the particu lars relative to Mr. Everett's engagement to writeL for .that paper.-. Tbe Louisville Jour nal, ia speaking of this engagement, says : - "The Hon. Edward Kvereli baa paid over to the Mount Yernoa Aaaudalion ten tbou!and dollars, received by him from the editor of TAeNt York Ledger, in. coasialeration of his giving to that pa per, throughout tbe coming year, original weekly rontribotiooa, uader tbe head of "Mount Vernon Paper." This, iftdeed, is sucb aa arrangement aa do other publisher in tbe United States, it in the world, ever had the liberality and boldness make. Edward Everett ia the most accompluhed scholar now living, and we know not where to look for. his equal in taste, and knowledge and and genius, and in grace, beauty, splendour, and magnificence of thought and diction. Tbe fact that a writer like him baa engaged, at an extraor dinary rate of remuneration, to contribute regu larly to a weekly family newapaper, must, of course, create an immense demand for Ul paper every where throughout the nation ; and when it ia known that, in addition to bis aplendid con tribution, tbe same paper be the regular services of twenty or thirty other 'writers, each of whom has a national reputation,1 the aggregate of tbe salaiies paid out amounting to at Feast thirty thousand dollars a year, and probably more, sure ly tbe demand cannot fail to be literally tremen dous, Tbe Ledger's present circulation, of nearly half a million, may be expected to rise rapidly to a million." ' ' FROM "WASHINQTOX. Tbe Democratic Senators on Thursday, in can cua. Toted to exclude M r. Douglas from the Chair manship of the Committee on Territories, and the acT was, without uoubt, consummated on slonoay, though a severe struggle was anticipated. The fact that this action ia in accordance with tbe wiabeaif the President was sot attempted to be concealed, though a part of thee who voted lor the exclusion did so for the alleged reason that Mr. Douglas is expected to be absent until Janua ry, Others, however, were candid enough to de clare their tree- reasons. Several prominent Southern Senators opposed the movement Brown, of Mississippi, reminding his fellow Democrat that the rejection of Martin Van Buren's nomina tion as Minfew to London, made him President, and warning hem to beware of the results of their present action.

Mr. Turner offered an amendment to strike out " Clingman a Peak" and insert u the highest peak or tbe famoky Mountains." Mr. T. said he was induced to offer thissme; ment because of the unfortunate controversy to give the name of Clingman to a peak of the Black Mountain a controversy which ended in the death of Prof. Mitchell. Since which time it has been clearly proven that in 1835, he (Prof. M.) measured tbe very peak which Senator Cling man claimed to have measured in 1855. So his claim was twenty years too late. To name this peak Clingman, Mr. T. continued, at proposed by the bill, will be to do great injustice to Prof. Buck ley, of New York, who ia now asserting hia claims to this very peak. He claims to have been the first to place a barometer upon this mountain, and that it is higher than Mount Mitchell. lie had no acquaintance, personally, with Prof. Bn but be had some reputation as a botanist both in this country and in Europe, and he would not vote to give such advanuge to a politician over a merito rious Professor, whose claim . to this peak on Smokey Mountain might be as clearly established as bad Dr. Mitchells to Black Mountain. This amendment was rejected. After a spirited discussion of about an hour, in which Messrs. Thomas, Edney, Carmicbael and Gorrell, favored the'paasare of the bilLand Messrs. Turner and Pool opposed, the bill passed its 3rd reading. supaxxx COUST JUDOK. A message was received from the House propos ing to go Into an election for Supreme Court Judge to-day at 12 o'clock.

He knew the high opinion which every member of tbe House entertained of the distinguished man. Some of the members had remarked that he was far above any man in the State, as to legal knowledge, and he believed such was the general opinion. Many remarks had been made as ' to whether he . would accept the office or not; coming irom juage Katsn s county, it might per baps, be expected of him to speak knowingly But all he could ssy, was that judging from what he knew of Judge K, it waa his opinion that he wouia not uecime so great an honor if tendered to bun by the .Legislature. He thought there was a prooaouiiy oi nis accepting the position. In any event, whether he accepted or not, there could be no harm in payine so richlv deserved a mm. pliment to the first jurist of North Carolina, one wno naa ior so many years reflected the greatest creau upon our j uaiciary. Mr. Dortch thought that this was a matter lu which party ties should bind no man, that party prejudice and feeling should be put aside. It was an office which should be given to the man of the greatest legal talent, and as he thought Judge Ruffin would not accept, he would nominate one who was at least his second in legal - attainments W T TiaT d. r . aioore.

As an indication ef the popularity of the LEDGER, we seed only state the simple fact, that its eirealatloa is larger than that of any other TEN literary papers ia the country.
