We will'not eohsent to ."cde or dissulre tho Union for existing" causes ; and he who woutd deliberately dUsolve an.i des troy the national Democratic party, while ii stands upon its old and well-known doctrine of non-in-Wvention, HAS BUT ONE 3IORE STEP TO TAKE TO BECOME A DISUNION 1ST." JIIAT WE SAID ABOUT THE BANKS AND TIIEIR SUSPENSION OF Dla ' COUNTS. We promised ia oar last paper to notio e an article wkicb appeared in tbe Raleigh Standard is relation to a piece which we pub lished ia the Register of. the 10th, statiog tbe fact that the Banks bad suspended dis count, and going' on to show why they hid dooe so. We hire nothing to take back about that article of oars.. So far from it we have not only to repeat what we did say, lut to prove that we were right as to facts, and inferences, and show the quo animo of the Editor of the Standard in replying to it in the mode which he has thought proper to telect. We shall speak plainly, and if we show up the Edi'or of the Standard in a light in which it is not pleasant to him to be seen in, be mast remember that be has, with, out rhyme or reason, bat for no other than utterly uowortby motives, made aa insinua tion about as which is as utterly wanting in truth as it Is destitute of justice, propriety, i&d delicacy. It may be regarded as a very strong expression, bat we shall nevertheless ttse h. Wt art no more the organ . of. tank ofYorik Carolina, or any other 2? 'a the Raleigh Standard u the organ the Democrat it forty, although we confei " our necessities required it, that we shou hke to have more credit with the forme: than the Baleigh Standard bas with the la er. Before the article which the Standard jo unfairly eriticixea was written before we ' were aware of the faot, it was known on the streets of Raleigh tiat the Bsnka hid sus pended the discounting of new paper, and the information of the fact when it did come to us, vat not imparted by any President, Director or officer of a Bank in Raleigh, and whoever asserts to the 'contrary, or in sinuates to the contrary, asserts or insinu ates a falsehood. So much for this attempt to take from the force of .what we said, by placiog us in a false position. Let us now proceed to expose a quibble of the Standard. It says the- Banks do discount. Now, why did it not say that it renewed accommodation paper, curtailments being made oa stipulated terms? Nobody denies that Ihe Banks do tiis sort of discounting, bat we re-assert the fact that the Banks did not, at the time our article was written, (wbat they are jioirig now we don't pretend to know,) discount new paper. Nor is this suspension of discounts confined to KaleigB. . The last Salisbury Watchman, in commenting on an article from .another paper, says : Without knowing the cause, we know the fact that the basks in this place have shut down, ilr. Badcrer thinks it is directly charges ble to the Eresen tunsettled state of the country. Inhuspeesh ere he said, the bills of our banks come returned upon them within a few days after being issued, in the original packages, and the specie demanded; and that this thing 'had been going on until the ( banks were driven to the necessity of putting a stop to emissions all showing tnat mere was a lack of confidence on the part of Pnorlhern men, to whom our notes were paid in discharge of debts, as rerardi .southern credit. As respectable a gentleman as lives, and one too who resides ia the vieinity of Dan ville, V., informs us that the Banks of that town, having a capital of $1,000,000, have ceased to discount new paper. This, and other information, authorized us to say what we did. The Editor of the Standard bas so i v ? i r u: k .(Va.U.m long Deen paju iwr speaaiug --ajj ouuviij that be . thinks no man can say that he is "authorized" to state any thing unless be bas a fee in bis pocket for so doing. ' But, sayi the sagacious financier of the Standard, if tbe Banks are stringent, It is because the Brokers are after them. Wonderful disco v ery : Ana wny are irosers now, more man at any other time, after tho Banks ? Be . . 1 , .1 cause there is an alarm among the capitalists and business men at tbe North, consequent upon the threats of the Breckinridge Disunion- ists and Fire Eaters to destroy, or attempt to destroy the Union. Credit is a sensitive thing, and a much slighter cause for appre hension than now exists, would unsettle the business relations of the country. Bat it does not suit the Standard's present views that we Bhould draw this inference. The Standard, after having been forced to sup port Breckinridge, wishes to signalize its seal. It may do so, bat no captive of tbe bow and spear pr bulrush of the " Democratic Press," late Live Giraffe, which performed for years much to the gratification of the little boys and gals and little niggers, and whose retirement upon it as from thai stage, to re-appear the organ of the Breckinridge party of North- Carolina was very much regrei'ea oy W atoresaia mue ooy. auu gaia .....1 TtT L - It I ana utue niggers, can cag us. e snaii staie such facts as truth will warrant ua in stating, and we shall make such deductions from them as fair logic wil) warrant ns in making, and the Standard and its party may make the most of it. In conclusion, we extract the following article trom the Richmond Whig : THE FALL IN THE PRICE OF NE- " GROES. ( . We call attention to the following timely, and suggestive article, which we take from tbe last is sue of tbe V alley ftar, a Democratic paper pub lisbed at lexington in thisbtate. 1 he .Star says : "We have always maintained that the whole secret of the seceders, in breakine up the Demo cratic party was to dissolve the Union, in order to open the African Slave Trade and bring down the value of negroes, tbat tbe profits upon cotton mizht be higher. lrgtnia is already having a foretaste of what is to come. We understand from reliable authority that No. one negroes have already fallen more than 2 per cent, and seeond i . i . . J r nn . . n a ana intra rsie mcai mini ou 10 su per cunt. What bas produced this sudden decline? Does not every man see at a glance it is the cry of disu- union raised by theso cotton planters, producing foeiineor uncertainty a want or confldence in the holders of slave property. Yes, Virginia is now being bled to the tune of thousands of dollars, to enrich tuose wbo by their clamor about Uisun Ion oave itexignrtuy created tmsj panic. vitn a debt of forty millions, her taxes paid by the sale of negroes, impaired in value 30 or 40 per cent.. is not Virginia well prepared to go for a dissolution of the Union. We call upon the people to look this matter in tne race, and to remember tbat if "hard ti aaes," high taxes, come upon them, it was those wbo endangered tbe Union, tbat were its authors. Look out, ye supporters of Breckinridge, ' the blow falls alike upon us alL . We can only say it was not our aoinga The facts noted in the foregoing paragraph should seriously considered by the people of irginia. xne pecuniary interests of tne people ot tbe Slate, nave air say oeen seriously affected by the threatening aspect of public affairs: Slaves have denrecisted in value here in the Richmond market tne largest slave market in tne union Kme thro or four hundred dollars, within a very short period, as we are informed by many persons uh full opportunities of knowing wnat they are talking about. 'And they will continue to depreciate unless a slop is put to tbe threats or. JJisamon, which are o freely indulged in by tbe Ureckin- ridge leaders.' It is time that the people of Vir ginia Whigs and Democrats alike were open ing their eyes to the present and prospective con dition of public afikirs. Just consider a moment. While the people of Virginia, in consequence of the Disunion agitation, are compelled to dispose of their slaves, at a loss. on original prices, of three or four hundred dollars a head, how stands tbe case with the people of the imion disum wun me people of I an cey s state, Alabama; and all the other Gulf States? Why, these Cotton Statee gentlemen want to buy ne groes, and they are obliged to buy them; and they are obliged to buy tham of Virginia, too. And what is more to the point, they are now buying them, in great numbers, and buying them cheaper, by three or four hundred dollars ahead, than they have been enabled to buy them for long year past. And, why do they "get them cheaper now? Why, for the simple reason that, in consequence of their own agitation and threat about Secession and Dis union, the price of negroes has fallen : in the markets of Virginia! And thus these Cotton State gentlemen are making money out of their agitation, and making it at the expense of Vir ginia! In a word, these Cotton State people, who want to buy negroes and who are obliged to ob tain their necessary supplies of negroes ; from us, are interested in keeping up agitation on the ques tion of Disunion, knowins that such agitation will keep down the price of negroes in Virginia! In woru, any aisiuroance or uneasiness among tbe iwo mgiuai KiKreratu tiitt pecuniary au- vahtage of the people of the Cotton States; and aware of that fact, these Cotton State eentrv are interested in creating and fomenting disturbances and alarms among the people of Virginia. And it is well, therefore, to keep.asharp watch upon the agitators and Secessionists of the Cotton Statee. We fear that the desire for cheap negroes, and not a regara tor ine political Tibts of the South, is at the bottom of all the disunion' agitation in the Cotton Statee, and of the whole policy of the Cotton State politicians. ' In view of these facts and s ingestions, let the people of Virginia be admonished in time. Let them at once, in deference to their own interests and their own safety, turn their backs upon Yan cey and his candidate for tbe Presidency, and re solve to give their voices and their votes in behalf of the election of Boll and Everett I Er" The Salisbury Banner, whose editor was born and raised in England, andvwho, spending three-fourths of his life there, and of course imbibing all that love of the insti tution of slavery which emanates from Exe ter Hall, and wakes up old Lord Brougham to insult oar Democratic Ambassador, Mr. Dallas, who submitted to it like a spaniel, is peculiarly severe on the late Union meet- mg at Salisbury. Among other things, this wfng-o-Pro-Slaverist says, "We have no hes itation in deolaring that better black repub lican doctrine could not be desired by Lin coln himself than we heard preached here daring Thursday and Friday last." We "have no hesitation in declaring" that we ieei tenaeriy lor tne ngfo-fro-61averist ol the Salisbury Banner. He has each a deep interest in the existinoe of .slavery He bas invested so largely init, that he has an un doubted right to be ramarkably suspicious of Graham, Badger, and others, who spoke at Salisbury ; who were born and raised in the midst of slavery, and who, though not own ing so many slaves as the .tfngo-Pro-Slaver-ist of the Salisbury Banner, yet do own some, uonbtless the tfnirfo-l'ro-claverist . J . - of the Salisbury Banner went to bed on "Friday" night as much concerned about the value of his negro propeity as he was satis fied with his veracious account of the num ber and the proceedings of the meeting. In conclusion, we would advise the jJnglo-Pto- Slavenst not to sell in a "panic" any of his vast number of slaves. GOOD NEWS FROM THE SEVENTH DISTRICT. We have seen a letter from a prominent and well-informed gentleman in the Seventh District, addressed to the Chairman of the Union State Executive Committee, which gives a highly gratifying accou&of the con- dition of affairs in that section of the State Tne Union men are folly aroused, while their opponents are disconcerted and deject ed. The Union vote in the Seventh District will b(J mujh . than thJ given at . O the August election. From the Charlotte Bulletin. LOOK OUT. We have been requested to notice, in our col umns, (says the Salem N. C. Press,) a young man or prepossessing manners, who made his appear ance in tnese oiggings, several weeks since, bear ing letters addressed to C. W. Duval, Civil Engi neer on tbe H londa and Tennessee Railroad. It seems tbe person in question departed, leaving contracted debts to the amount of some SI 00 un paid. The Sentinel savs : " While here, te called himself C. W. Duval: is about 22 years of age, medium height, well punt and proportioned, black hair, whiskers and moustache ; he is apparently well educated, and has very prepossessing manners. Upon leaving nere, it is thought be made for High Point", We know this chevalier tPindustrie some what, though not a great deal to our cost. He figured here some four months ago, and "rung in" upon us for the amount of bis bill at Yarborough's Hotel, and upon our neighbor, Mr. Holden, for his Bail Road fare to Weldon. He seems to have a fancy for "engineering" editors. ' ; THE MEETING AT WILMINGTON ON THE 26th INSTANT. The Union meeting which will be held at Wilmington on the 26th instant, promises to be a splendid affair.7 The best speakers in the State, and several from abroad, wil! bjs in attendance. The ease with which Wil- mingtdn can be reached, the well established character of the town for hospitality and above all, the sacred and glorious cause to be subserved, will attract to this meeting tnou- .sands.upon thousands of people. A FLASH IN THE PAN. Handbills were stuck up about Raleigh on Wednesday, stating that E. G, Haywood, Esq., would address the Breckinridge and Lane Ciub that evening at the Court House. 'Night came to bring things Which, with his poetic tongue, Young sung," but brought no hearer to the promised speech. Bailey's Varieties beat the Club all hollow. GLORIOUS MEETING AT WINSTON. We understand that the meeting at Win- ston last Saturday, was a most enthusiastic and numerous one. there beini? unwarda of four thousand persons in attendance. There was Bpleodid speaking, and two j banda of mnsio added a charm' to the soeoe. Bat one sentiment prevailed, and that was, the "Union, it moat be preserved.1 - UNION MEETING AT BOLE 8 VILLE. ' The friends of the Union, and Bell and Everett, will hold a meeting at Rolesville on Thursday, the 1st of November. Several distinguished spaakers will be in attendance and a good time is confidently expected. There will be a Maes Meeting of the Friends of Bell and Everett at Pittsboro, on the first day of November next. Distinguished speakers wil be in attendance. Come one 1 Come all 1 1 LOCAL AND STATE H EWS. OUR STATE FAIR. This interesting Exhibition is at, this time in full progress.; To-day (Thursday the attendance was much larger than on either of the preceding days. The number of Visitors present ' being variously estimated at from eight to twelve thou sand. . 'l 1: : . TheMList-tf Premiums" will not be read out until to-morrow, at 11 o'clock, which of course will constitute the most interesting feature of the day especially to Exhibitors of whom it is gratifying to know, there is quite a goodly num ber. We worked very bard, anq made every exer tion to procure the list of Premiums tor publi cation in this issue, but after nbpying a large number of them, we found it utterly impossible to obtain the whole in time. And .'earning also that many corrections would have to be made, even in those we had taken down, we thought it much tbe best for all parties concerned, to wait until (he Society could furnish a "list" carefully "revised and corrected." We were really and heartily glad to meet with so many of our friends and acquaintances from various portions of our State. And when we re gard these annual "re-unions" strictly in a social - point of view we incline somewhat to the opin ion, that the same amount of "money and labor" could not be more profitably employed than in sustaining these annual exhibitions, especially when we take into consideration the overwhelm- I ing number of exceedingly beautiful "maidens," I aye, and "matrons," too, who are always sure to 6race tljese popular assemblages with their capti- vating presence and bewitching smiles! ; There, now, haven t we done it t with a vengeance. We had like to have forgotten that we are rather an "elderly looking-gentleman, and "married," at that ! Well, let it go ; we have said it, and never take back a word we say, no matter what tho consequenaes may be to our "crockery." Now, although the ladies filled a very large space in our "retina' we could not helping see ing, and slightly admiring some few other objects of "minor interest." In Floral Hall, for instance. we saw a great many beautiful "things but they were produced chiefly by the fair hands of the fairer portion of "creation." ' We shall not par ticularize, nor shall we attempt to discribe any article we happened to see there, for (the fact is, entre nous, we did not examine them very closely,) our time, was too much occupied in looking at other "objects" possessing, in our opinion, far greater attractions! We allude to well 1 never mind! We'll forbear! as we understand that 'crockery" has materially advanced in price since the "suspension of discounts 1" If our wits, however, served us correctly, we we have an indistinct recollection ot seeing "something grep" located somewhere about the centre of Floral Hall ! It was a pyramid of beauti- ful evergreens, inserspersedwith rare flowers', be longing to our townsman, Mr. Thos. Carter, who is proprietor of an extensive Flower Garden and Nursery, and whose taste and enterprize entitle him to the patronage ef a liberal public. We went next into "Pomological Hall," where we .were brought completely to a "stand still'1 by the magnificent display of luscious fruits that met our gaze on either side. Un the one hand we found Messrs. Westbrooks & Mendenball "in full amy," with no less than 150 different varieties of Apples, many of which were exceedingly large and fine, 23 varieties of Pears, 43 of Strawberry Vines, and 12 of Peaches, while on the other hand we were pleased to see our old friend Lindley with an exhibition of fruits not quite so large, J though scarcely inferior to any we ever saw; any where, at any time. Both of these gentlemen have extensive Nurseries, and grow all the fruit trees tbat are best adapted to our climate and soil, are both of them clever, reliable, and enterpris ing gentlemen, and deserve to be liberally pat ronized, and we are pleased to know that they are selling annually very large quantities of fruit trees of the very best kinds, and our word for it, in a few years "good fruit" in our State will be about as "plentiful as Blackberries I" So much for well directed enterprise! : Among the riding vehicles on exhibition we noticed a splendid carriage and one of the hand somest buggies we ever saw, made at the Coach Factory of Mr. N. S. Harp, of this city. Both cf these elegant vehicles we re very properly award- ea ids nm premiums.. , Among the most attractive incidents at the Fair was the arrival of Col. Tew's corps of Cadets from the well known and deservedly popular Military Academy" at Hillsboro'. In point of drill and discipline no corps can surpass this, and their exeroises ia the Light Infantry drill commanded the warm admi ration of all who saw them on the Fair Grounds. ' Exhibition at th Institutioii for Tint Dkkt, Dumb and th Blind. The large Cbapel at tho N. O. Institution for the Deaf Dumb, and the Blind, was filled Iff overflowing on Wednesday evening last, by visitors to the State Fair and many of our citizens; to witness an exhibition by the Pupils of the Institution. Several classes of the Deaf and Dumb Pupils were examined in their studies, and several stories were recited in signs, which caused much amusement to the audience. The Blind Pupils were examined in Grammar, Arithmetic, and Reading with the raised letters. They also sang several pretty songs and performed a number of instrumental pieces n thT.inrt. ' Thm nnriienpa testified thuir annro- bation and delight by frequent applause. The entertainment was a perfect success. The pupils U "quitted themselves exceedingly well, and as. tonishod the audience witi their proficiency in their studies. When it Is remembered under what adverse circumstances these unfortunate creatures prosecute their studies, it is astonishing Indeed to witness their proficiency.,. Tbe energe tic and excellent Principal of the Institution. Mrl Willie J. Palmer, devotes his whole time and talents to the instruction of the pupils under his charge, and with what success can only be known' by attending the exhibitions of the dudUs. , We are pleased to learn from Mr. Palmer that he in - tends to bave J frequent exhibitions of the kind given on Wednesday evening. Nixon's Royal Circus. We are happy to in form our readers that they can have the pleas ure of attending in this "City on Monday and Tuesday next the astonishing performances of this magnificent and unrivalled Circus. This Compa ny is from Niblo's I Garden,' New York, and however extravagant our. language in regard to their extraordinary and wonderful pertbrman ces may appear, we assure our readers that we shall say nothing which will not be more than verified by the performance itself. In this Com pany are the six celebrated Hanlon Brothers, whose gymnastic : performances are unequalled by! any other,, gymnasts : in the world, and the wonderftrl equestrian,- Mdlle. Zoyara, whose per fprmanceson horseback are unrivalled, besides a numbe- of other .astonishing features, never be fore performed in any other Circus that has ever visited this country. ' ' When we saw the announcement some short time since in the New York papers that Nixon's Royal Circus intended visiting the South, we fear ed that the cities of North Carolina were too small to induce them to stop here, but we are rejoiced to be able to state that our fears were ground less, and we shall all have an opportunity of wit nessing their splendid performances. The Com pany will perform at four points in North Caro lina," viz : At Weldon, to-day,- the 20th ; at Raleigh, Monday and Tuesday, the ; 22nd and 23rJ ; at Goldsboro the 24th, and at Wilmington the 25th, 26th ard 27th. : Few in this vicinity will ever, have an opportu nity of witnessing so splendid a performance again, and we therefore advise all classes and conditions of society, of all ages and eexei, not to let this op portunity of seeing the most magn;.ficent Circus that ever was in the country, ' and indeed we might say, in the world, pass by unimproved. ' Schodlhousi Struck by Lightning. The Washington (N. C.) Dispatch states that the. barn of Mr. Bernard Carrowan, in which the common school was kept, was struck by lightning on the 28th ult. i There were about fifty pupils' in school- Twd boys, Joseph, son of Hardy Leary, and Wil liam, son of (Jhriftopcer (Jarrowan, were kjiled, and two others were knocked down. The rest were unhurt. -l Bailey's Varieties. Thii excellent troupe have performed this week, before immense and de lighted crowds. This (Friday) evening will be their last appearance here. They will visit Golds boro next week, and Newberiiftho week after. We bespeak for them kind and hospitable recep- tions in both of those places, and assure our friends in thoso places that they. can nu. fail to be delighted with their entertainments". Mr. Bailey, the pro prietor of the troupe, is a perfect gentleaian, and so is his agent, Major Graham. The members of the troupe, taken altogether, are the most gentle manly and ladylike in their .behaviour of any dramatic troupe we. have ever seen. Many of our citizens will feel a pang of regret at their de parture. '" I ' 'J NIXON'S E0YAL AMPHTJHEATEE, Niblo's Garden.

Mr. Butler, therefore, should take immediate steps to rectuy the wrong so fat as he has the power, and the first step is to surrender the certificate he wrong' fully holds. . Upon this subiect the - New York- Tribune remarks thit if Mr. Butler 'is to owe his return to fraud, we feel assured that - he will not consent to' hold the seat even for a day.' This is the sentiment of. Mr. Butler's true frienda in this city, and they have expected him to act in accord ance with. it, but thus far tbey have been disap pointed. . Should be continue to hold a certificate awarded to him by means of a fraud admitted by every one, and condemned without a dissenting voice, he cannot expect to escape severe. ..censure ; Ax Expedition Come to NoTHiira.-i-The Knights of the Golden Circle; Who have been so far benighted as to march to Western Texas, have concluded, that they have had about as near a view of the elephant as would pay.
