THE RLEIGI1 STANDARD AXO TI1E PEMOCHACY--A QtEER STATE OF AIFAIKS, r A more extr.o dinry spectacle than the one now exhibited by the Dmocr-y in ana about iVh.c- unty, it has rarely, if ever, been . our lot to wimees-. -1 - In the firt place, the Kaleigh Standard, . the organ of its party, is opposed to every proiuinen' measure' advocated by President Buchanan to epecifio du'ief the Pacific Railroad, con-'trpe'ed by the Gneral Got;, eminent, and to the Thirty Million Bill and yet expresses the greatest confidence in the Tresidenr, and proclaim that ''his adminis tration" not one prominent measure of which the Standard, approve "iri be re garded in after times as one of the brightest in our country's history ! ' Bat for cer'ain reason a which we know the Standard has to be cautious with Old Buck, we should absolutely "think that it was poking fan at him-and indulging id a rich strain of irony towards Lim and his) administration. Thi is now the Standard's posi.ion, and next let ns enqnre into the position of the Democ racy of Wake. At the mee'irg on .Monday Mr. Frank I. Wilson, the -Associate Editor of the Stand ard, introduced the following resolution : "RemJred. That we are opptd to specific du ti for national revenue that we ppoted to a PaeiSc Railroad to te built by the General tfov-ernnu-nljand that we are al orP"d to entrust .intr the President with $30,000,000 for the pur chase of Cuba r for' any other purpte.M This resolution waa laid on the table, and the Democracy of Wake, by so disposing 6T it, proclaimed, eubtantially, that they were t'H. favor of .specific duties in favor of a Railroad to the Pacific, to be constructed by thr Federal Government, and in favor of giving the President , the sum of Thirty million of dollars thus abandoning all their opposition to protective tariffs and Internal Improvements by tho General Government, and advocating the creation of a corruption fond of an-enormous amount. Bu this is not all.' The actiin -of the Waks county Democracy has placed a gap as wide as that between Lmmi and Dives be-j t ween themselves and the Kaleigh Standard, heretofore their acknowledged organ. The Standard can no longer speak their voice, for it is opposed to every measure which they advocate. , ; What a kettle of fish t Was the like ever seen before ?

Democratic Oraan which -professes to know all - about Mr. Buchanan. and the (Jitney r s. ' . From the Washington States, 1st. The President, instead rf porsieline in "is patriotic policy, on a sudden, and without apparent excuse, withdrew his demand for the ab rogation of the Ulayton-Bulwer treaty, and ini tiated negociutions tor the adjustment of the Istu nv'an controversy on the basis of a perpetual ob servance of that abominable engagement. Nay, more: bv the concession of ihe faithful organ, in in ai article now before u, he admWed the. Eng lish Envoy into the secret of his diplomacy, and mad Sir Wtn. Gore Omley the representative of his policy. At the instance of that wily and un scrupulous adventurer, the President repudiated the regular British Miisterj who was ready, as we are prepared to p-oee, to accept a renunciation of the Clay ton-Bui wer compact and with Sir Gore Ousley concocted a plan of settlement which that impudent personage proposed for the avowed purpose of perpetuating a treaty repugnant to all the instincts and interesta ofthe American peo pie. Nor ws that all. Such ' was the infatuation f Mr. Buchanan, that be even; deruted Ousley lo execute the agreement ; and while the Bri'ih envoy was assiduously ope rating to soure England's foothold on the Isth mus, the American representative was instructed to g eorvd hi enures, and the American squadron ordi-red to prevent aiy interrupt'on to their pro gres by the inopportune interposition of a fiili- bust r enterprise. Why did Mr. Buchanan con sent to lilay the part ot accessory to the disgrace and di-parasrment of his own country ? It was not, we do him the jus'ice to admit, with a delibe rate intent to betrav American intetests. i Mr. Buchanan is a victim of misplaced confi dence. He is the dupe of Ousley 's artful diploma cy. IIo klip; oeed himself "to be' , persuaded ithat England would negotiate in the spirit of the, A merican1 comtniction 'of tha Clay Wn-Bul wer com pact, and would batten, if left alonQ. to abandon iier usurred dominion over the Musquito coast. and the .Day Islands. As an aqdiUoual induce ment to the acquiescence of our government. Gore Ousley stipulated to insure the-ratification of the Cass-Yriffari treaty. Mr. Buchanan was credu lous. He gave ear to Ousley, accepted his propo sals, dismissed him with a benediction, and confi dently anticipated the triumph of bia diplomacy, and the ful Ailment -of hia pledge. : . ; j ,: His diplomacy is t-iUnlf hant, but his pldges what ot -them? The story is already told. "Suf ficts it to say in Vecapitu'ation, that by the con ventions which Gore Ousley has negotiated, so far from renouncing England's pretensions in Central America, he has secured their confirma tion. Neither the Musquito protectorate nor the Bay Island colony is abandoned, while, to aggra vat" the injury, the Casa-Yrissari treaty is reject ed with every circumstance of contempt for flbe resentment of the United States, i Ignoble consummation I "Will tha country submit to so shameful a sacrifice of its rights f Does it not blush at this truthful picture of its humiliation ? At the hazard of. tedious repetition, we must entreat the public to recollect these factar that Mr. Buchanan onci advocated the repeil of the Clayton -Sal wer treaty ; " tha ho . subsequently shifted his policy and commencednegotiations on tbe basis of perpetuating that engagement, that be refused an asurance from Lord Napier of a read iness on the part of the British legation to annul the Clayton-Bui wer compact, and gavef ah his confidence to Ousley, who desired nothing so much as to consolidate English usurpation on the Isthmus under cover of that convention. - These-are facts of which we dtffy contradic of jve 4 tion. . Thi Tawbobo' Uoif NBcnoK. A correspon dent ef the Petersburg Press, writicg from Taw boro, N. C,, in relation to the proposed branch railroad between that town and Rocky Mount, says : . - '. ; ' On last Thursday, 31st Mr. J. Bullock and Mr. R. R. Bridgera, in company with Gen. ; Mc . Rae, of Wi'mington, sorted from Rocky Mount on horseback to take a view of the proposed route for this railroad. They found it one peculiarly adapted to the purpose ; the country being for the most part level, and free from deep cuttings or tunneling." Tbe estimated oost will bo 10,000 per mile. 'and perhaps under that sum. This road, it is thought, will be carried on to Washington, N. C, distant from this place 50 wiles, and will prove of great advantage to the merchants and farmers, the only means of transportation now- being by wagons and by flata to the rivr. The people of Wilmington have offered, I understand to take $25,000 worth, of stock, provided the cost is not, as I have said, over $10,000 per mile.
