We take the following communication from the UstCaKtnton News : ' Ml Walsh 5 It tae ml that in the few rx "JrsTiTenaarta made by me before the ratifica tion meeting in Warrenton, an expression escaped me, that has been deemed I will not say how properly worthy of comment by l be Opposition prues. It I alated that I ea:d " I pre fen od Mr. IittxJ n to Mr. Douglas" . Sapposing that there is bo purpose to report me uoiruly, and that it is not improbable I may have so expressed myself in the hurried language used by roe on tnat occasion, and in order that 1 may not be misquoted in future, and that my opinion of however little value may rot be appropria te to uses not designed by medesire implicit ly toaay, that my opinion tune wu tken and I intended o to declare, that the mode of exclusion from the common Territories advocated by Mr. Lincoln U not as objectionable as that indicated by Mr. Ikmglas, tor the reason, that if an issue is to be made and decided in regard to the Equality of the States and the rights of SuUtAem citi:ens, there would be more safety in submitting it 'to C-ttyrrss than to a Territorial Legislature, be- cause in the former, those great interests would be represented and heard, and might be as they hare been Heretofore successfully defended by able statesmen from every portion of the Union supported, as they would be, by all the gvaran tret of the Constitution each House of Congress being a check upon the other the Executive re to a.check upon both and, in the last resort, the shield of the Judiciary might be interposed to ar rest wrong, but before a Territorial Legislature, the inestimable privileges of representation and defenee, and the other anjcmiard alluded to, could not be commanded. Mr. Lincoln asserts a power in Congress, professing subordination to the Con stitution, to excludo from the common Territories the property of citizens oflhe South. Mr. Doug las assert tie same power in a Territorial Legis lature, which, according to his theory as I un derstand it acts above and beyond the Constitu tion, thus shifting, it would seem, the' WUmot Prurigo from a responsible to an irresponsible body J I say nothing of the obligation resting upoar Congress, to make due compensation for private property taken from its owner under its authori , tr nor of the total absence of all meant in a Tcr ' rUurial Government to make such compeisalion 1 admitting even it ware bound to do so. Nor will I speak of the consequences to the institution of slavery, which would result from the exeicise of the potter of &rclmoti py the one or the other jurisdiction the difference being, I conceive, tim fly one of time. Choose ye, then, between the two modes. My preference is decided, fixed, un alterable. I can never consent to forego any of my rights under the Constitution of the United States, for any expedient, however plausible or in genious. - As to a e ho ire between the two gentlemen, I did not feel called upon to make or declare any.. If the necessity shall ever arise for doing so, I shall be fully prepared to meet it. For my pre ferences, or my reasons for them in that contin gency, I should have no apologies to make. . W. S. "EDWARDST ' Poplar Mount, 54th Sept., 1860. Mr. Weldon N. Edwards is a gentleman for whom, as do all who know him, we feel the greatest personal respect and esteem, and therefore feel all the more regret at seeing him place himself in a position so utterly in defensible as the one which he now occupies. Mr. Edwards cannot be said to be in private life, and therefore unamenable to public crit eism. He is a leading politician in, bis own section of the country.1, On all o ceasions he is put forward and made prominent j and on no occasion does he fail to impress his own views upon those who for many years have been accustomed to look up to him with a respect jtnd deference only surpassed by that which was paid to Nathaniel Macon. Under these circumstances as a publio Journalist; we cot only feel authorized, but obliged by a sense of duty, to expose the mischievous tendency of Mr. E.'s remark that be prefer red Lincoln to Douglas for the Presidency. The communication on which ,we shall comment,' does not mend matters much for Mr. Edwards. Soon after we charged him with making the objectionable remark attrib uted to him, the Wilmington Journal stated that it had been informed by Mr. Edwards, that he did not 'intend'' tar be so under s cod, and that be preferred Douglas to Lin coln. Ia the communication to the Warren ton News it will be seen that he gives rea sons vky Lincoln is prtferabls to Douglas. How is this to be reconciled with bis state ment to the Editor-of the Wilmington Jour nal ? But, without taking in the slightest degree the part of Douglas, let us look at the reasons assigned by Mr. Edwards for his pre ference of Lineoln over Douglas. Mr. E. Uysjnat he "intended to declare that the mode o exclude slavery from the common Territories advocated by Mr. Lincoln is not so objectionable as that indicated by Mr. Pong las," for the reason that it. would be safer to try the issue befors Congress than- before a Territorial Legislature. Now, we do not nnaereund Mr. Donglu to h?e indicatedW , tiA i- c ip.. vnac Riavery snomii uo wiu ium sm tcrics, but etmplj to bare said that it might be when the People of the Territwica were prompted bj self ' interest to exclude it, and this is the position, of Gen. Cass, Senator Mason, and other prominent Democrats with whom Mr. Edwards is now co-operating. Mr. Douglas contends that the People of the Territories will exclude slavery if slave ry is not profitable, and will, not exclude it where it pajs, and where it- is the interest of toe people to sustain it as an institution. Sueh is Mr. Douglas' position. ' Now, let us see that of Mr. Lincoln. Mr. Lincoln js the author of the "irrepressible conflict" doctrine: He makes the issue that slavery shall cease to exist in all of the States and Territories, or bejwrmitted to enter into all,' and be takes the ground, that it shall cease ; in all. The Black Bepubt icans have already possession of the House of Representatives and the Free States a majority in the Senate. This Free State majority in the Senate have not yet exercised their power in the Senate, but who can tell when they will Who can tell that there will cot be, in the course of a few years, a freesoil, anti-slavery, irrepressible conflict majority in the Senate ?, Neither Mr. Edwards cor any body else. Now, sup pose an "irrepressible conflict" man like Mr. Lincoln reaches the Presidency, would not a Black Republican Congress pass a Bill ex tirpating slavery everywhere in States, Ter ritories, and the District of Columbia ? Most assuredly this would be done, and would J cot there then have arrived the time when every man in the South would be for fevola tion and disunion? Certainly. Andytt,vntk this programme before his eyes, Weldon JY. Edwards, one of the great, leaders of the Breckinridge Democracy inXortk Carolina, vxuld prefer the election of Abraham Lin coin to that of Stephen A. Douglas, who says that Congress has no right to interfere at all xcith slavery in the States or Territo ries, but that the People of both shall manage that subject as they may deem best for their interests ! ! ! Need we say " more to point out the utterly indefensible position of Mr. Weldon N. iliwards to show the abhorrent nature of his proposition to every man who docs cot want the Constitution and tho Union destroyed ! ! Which is it safer t follow, such men as Mc- ftae. Miller & Co.. or your old tried friends, Wel don 2. Edwards, L. O'B.j Branch, A. W. Vena- ble, Dr. Pitchford, Major Drake, and tho host of other Democrats, whose names have been fcr years "household words" .'among the Democracy of this district 7 Choceo'between thorn under- stamticgly, and wo have no fear of your decision . Irarrrnton n. Give it to the "Renegades," Cardinal. You can't "hit them a lick amiss." But 1st us call your attention to some of those to whom you advise your friends to 'tie." The Democracy of Mr. Weldon JV. Edwards has, time and again, been impeached by the Ralefeh Standard, when that caper was re cognized as the Organ of Democracy in North Carolina. -r. L. O'B. Branch was within the last two years unmercifully satirized and dramatized by yourself, and has within the last few months taken the precise ground on Squatter Sovereignty, or " non-intervention1 which Mr. Douglas now occupies, and hich makes him so objectionable to yourself and others. Jlfr. A. W. Venable, the Breck inridge Elector, has been, over and over again, read out of the Democratic Party by the Raleigh Standard. As for our friends, Messrs. Pitchford and Drake, we don't know that their Democracy has been impeached. ' They, we expect, have been consistent sinners, although the servi ces of the latter to the cause of Democracy do not, judging from his defeat last August, seem to be very highly appreciated by the Democracy of Warren. . THE ROBBERY BY BALL. In our account of the robbery committed by G. W. Ball on Monday, we omitted to state that the thirteen mules he was driving when arrested by officer Betts, were stolen from llamas' Stable. The horse1 on which Ball was riding, was also stolen. We wrote our account for Wednesday's paper very hur riedly, and we admit that it was something like the play of Hamlet, with the part of Ham let omitted. Later accounts show that Mr. Walker did not surrender to the commander of the Jcartis in con sequence of, or in pursuance ot the demand made upon him under date of the 21st August lie did not surrender at Truxillb at all, but at a place called Rio Tinto, or Black River, some distance therefrom. He did not claim American citizen ship, and consequently it is folly for any Ameri can journalists to be making a fuss over an adven turer, however brave, who voluntarily dissolves all the ties that connect him with his country. The government and people of the United States have no more right, rnd consequently no more obligation to interfere on account ofanything done to Walker, than tbey; would have, were he a Frenchman or a Spaniard. He claimed to belong to Nicaragua, or that Nicaragua belonged to him. Wilmington Journal. s v We eoncur f ally in the above remarks, and add that Walker's fate was precisely what bis life deserved. A filibuster and freebooter be deserved death long before be got it." - . " KF" On Thursday last '. Robt. G. . Lewis, Esq., was appointed by Judge Heath .Clerk and Master in Equity for the County of wake.-. ' ;'v--T I the great union meeting at sal- I. 1SBURY NEXT THURSDAY ANDFHI. DAY. We learn from all quarters that there will be a great out-pouring of the people at Sal isbury next- Thursday and Friday. : They see cow that the Ucion is in danger, in imir cent danger .they kno w : what it is. worth to them and their posterity ; they foresee, as far as such terrible results ban be foreseen, the horrors consequent on its destruction, and they are determined to save it. They will flock to Salisbury in multitudes, and will meet with a cordial reception from our Union friends in that town, who have made ample arrangements for the entertainment of the hosts arrayed un der the banner of the Union. . Great speakers from this and other' States will be present, to raise voices of eloquence and patriotism ia behalf of the great oause of the Union. d9 Does not our neighbor of the Standard think it would be more fair to quote our lan guage in the connection in which we used it, than to separate a sentenoe from the context and make bis comments on it ? We did say that perhaps Mr. Breckinridge might cot now be a Disunionist, but there was co telling when he might be one. We then went on to say, (all of which is omitted by tho Standard) that but a very short time since Brackinridge was a decided non-interventionist, and that cow he was as decided an interventionist, and that this, coupled with the readiness and vanity with which he allowed himself to be made a tool of by the Democrats, warranted any body in feeling no surprise at hearing any day that he is a Disunionist. At any rate, he is at this moment the supple tool of Disunio cists. t r Wc have not quoted our article, but mer its the substance of it. We hope: tho Stan dard will play fair. j The Petersburg Bulletin has repro duced an article condemnatory of Mr. Ever ett which appeared in the Petersburg Intel ligencer of March 2nd, 1854, and the Wil mington Journal attributes that. -article to "John W. Syme." Now, for the benefit of our friends, Messrs. I' Anson and Fulton, we state that John W. Syme" not only did cot write a line of the article, but as old UToney Veller" would say, can prove a "Aalibi." 'C - , fror weeks prior to the appearance of that article, and for weeks afterwards, J. W.1 S. was in the State of North Carolina at the bed-side of a desperately ill daughter. Over and over again since the - article appeared has J. W. S. spoken in the Petersburg In telligencer in terms of warm commendation of Mr. Everett. The gentleman who wrote the artiole of March 2nd, 1854, is still a resident of Pe tersburg. , , ' NORTH CAROLINA EASTERJI CENTRAL FAIR. We return our "thanks to Mr. J. C. Sh cumb, Secretary of the N. C. Eastern Cen tral Agricultural Society, for a ticket of ad mission to the Fair which will commence at Goldsboro, Oct. 23rd, 1860. Several mili tary companies are expected to be in attend ance, and during the Fair a handsome flag will be presented to the best drilled compa ny. We are. requested to invite the Oak City Guards to go down and contend for the prize. Order out your soldiers, Capt. nigh, and go to drilling them at once. 1 BAILEY'S VARIETIES. This troupe will give two more entertainments in this city on this (Fridpy) and to-morrow (Sat urday) evening. They will perform this evening "Our Amorican Cousin." Master George Bailey is considered by many of our citizens ot.e of the best comic actors they have ever seen. His acting is certainly most pntural, and ho will doubtless take high rank in his profession. - PARKER'S VARIETIES. s Many of our citizens will be rejoiced at the an nouncement that Old Joe Parker with his troupe will give a series of performances .at the .Town Hall in this city, for six nights next week, com mencing on Monday evening. Parker's Varie ties are too highly appreciated by our citizens to need any commendation from us. .

Bell and Everett candidates for Governor, Congressmsn, asjd the Legislature. ' The town of Fernandina gives John Milton (Breckinride) for for Governor a majority over Gen.

Judge Bibb, of Alabama, a very influential Democrat of that State, in a letter to a friend states that he had heretofore declined to commit himself to the support of any one unulhe could bj better inform ed as to the individual who might be most success ful in defeating Lincoln, and adds: t. .

By those wnoare not very par ticular in their pronunciation . of na ues he is sometimes called Mr.'Funny Green, and really it was amusing to see and near now ne pitched in to the le.ter of Mr.L. O B. Branch, sent out to his people in' May last' Now; I . dont mean to Bay that he mentioned Mr. Branch's name at all, for he did not, - after I got there, but he certainly labored hard in opposition to the positions assum ed in that ; lettor so accesaful was .he, that I really thought it hard for Mr. B. to get it so on? all hands, for the Douglas men are constantly throwing this letter at him, and in addition to this, he finds it looming up before him, and get ting right between him and th people, whenever he mounts the stump in this campaign. Taking this view of the subject, I doubt not had Mr. B. been, present, he !would havp agreed with mo that if Mr. Green's name really ; is Funnv, that he was certainly appropriately-named. I should, have contended it was, because I wa amused he would have contended that the Green was right, on account of the manner he put it to one of his own friendj, &c, , When the speaker proclaimed his attachment to the Union, with tbeaidof the Bell and Everett men present, a sufficient amount of "racket" was made to cause the chainiian and secretary to cnango ttieir positions, wnoreupon some were satisfied that the prevailing drowsiness had not entirely overcome tnem ... , , The speaker possibly thinking this a good time to drop tne subject did so. A little more "racket" nsued which was given with sufficient rim to arouse from ' his seat a young gentleman, a Mr. Cox, I think ia his name, recently from Tennessee, candidate for Legislative of Wake. but more recently a honors in the county Whereupon Mr. C.'" proceeded to read a paper writing. 1 could hear something about "resolved" a Museum in Baltimore, and Breckinridge and Lane Club, getting people to vote &c &c. After 'this ho said it had been reported that a meeting of the Democracy of Wake county held in May last, at which be was present, had endorsed Judge Douglas he denied being present but said he subsequently endorsed the proceedings That they did not believe in Douglas then, but thought mm available and were willing to go hence on that account, &c. fthey Used to sav Democrats went for principles not men.) He said that the Breckinridge and Lane men bad .acted with a great dal of forbearance to- wards the Douglass men inj this county, (wonder if he was at the Fair grounds at the late meeting) that they had not eVen organized a Club, until the .Douglas men had, &c, &oj,, W hereupon finding things so dull 1 concluded to leave, before Jlr C. had finished, and on reaching the street, was on able to determine which was the most gloomy Of thi- too, the niist out doors, or the meeting inside. MR. YANCEY REFUSES TO ANSWER. The Washington States anil Union in alluding to the speech delivered by Mrj,Yancey at Wash ington last Friday night, from fha balcony of Col, Hoover, says : Our citizens are aware that'Mr. Breckinridge cannot or will not, answer questions,- they are equally aware that the Constitution, the President's organ, is governed entirely by the wishes ofMr. Breckinridge; but what will they think of 'Mr. Yancey's refusal to respond to a very proper inter;- rogatory last night? A gentleman asked Mr. Yancey "what would tho South do in case Lin coln were elected?" Mr. Yancey did not answer the question, but left it to be answered by the gen tleman himself, alter painting the probable evils to be inflicted on the South by Abolitionists and Black Republicans. Mr. j Yancey should have mado a response. We cannot imagine why he did not do so, unless his mouth has been sealed on the subject of disunion by tho entreaties of Mr. Breckinridge. We add the following communication for the information of our readers; Hon Wm. L. Yancey--Sir: In any remarks you may make m Washington, your opinion on the following is desired: I "Will the election of Abram Lincoln as Presi dent, in your lodgment, bo a iusUfiable cause for a dissolution of the Union of these States, or for the secession of any of them: or will they justifia bly rely upon the judicial department to arrest unconstitutional action l ' Very respectfully, .

OSortb CarolinaTiad voted for Franklin Pierce, and npon his beng withdrawn, Mr. Avery said: ' When the State of New Hampshire, in a spirit of conciliation, abandoned her favont son, we toll it a duty to pay a tribute of respect and gratitude to the distinguished son of Illinois, Stephen A.
