TRRVE5DOIT8 I'NIOX TRIUMPH IX F WAKE COUNTY. : j The election to this County, on Than da j, pare tba death-blow o disunion bj the elec- tioa of .the Union Ticket by an immense majoritj. Messrs. Lewis, Wilder, and. Rand hare boon taught lemon which tbcj will not speedily forjret,"" . It u 1 mgoiffcant fact that aevtral of the eaonUta of this city voted again t Convention; and why! Because tnej ap prehended - that the CooTention, if called, would be composed of conservative men, and their object was to defeat the call, and take t he chances in the future for a Convention (Vmpored of persona of their own kidney. It isVn possible, at this time, to express a relia ble opinion as to whether or not s Conten tion has been called. ; j It will be seen (hat the average majority in the city of Raleigh for the Union Ticket a 029 ! while the whole rote polled was 793. If this triumph is not a clincher, we do not know what a clincher u. Raleigh has cov ered herself with glory, and if we art not mistaken some of her citixens, on Thursday nieht, were - rloriooa U'er all toe ills of life victorious." An immense procession,' giving ont with loud voice the song of The Flag of Union, and speeches front the race essa 1 candidates at different points of the city, were the order of the night. Not only did the gravity of ige give countenance to the proceedings, bnt the voice ef " Young America was lifted load in the 'chorus for the Union. . If the lojrof Raleigh are fathers to the men, the Oak City will never lack for Union, champions. NEXT MONDAY. ' Ik fore the issue of oar next number, Abra ham Lincoln and Hannibal Hamlin will hare been inaugurated as President and Vice President of the United States. This event will nark a most important era in oar conn trj's history. For the first time a President and Vice President have been elected on purely sectional grounds. For the first time, the spectacle will be presented of seven States declaring themselves ont of the LJnion ssi beyond the jurisdiction of the Federal Authorities, and ready to assert, if need be, ' their sovereignty and independence by force, of arms. For the : first time, the Federal -Capitol will brsIe with arms to protect the person of the President from violence, and the property of the government from Seizure and depredation.' These will constitute most momentous and memorable events through cut coming time. Host anxiously will tid ings of the occurrences at Washington, on Monday, be looked for. That the ecremo nies of the inauguration may go off peace fully, and that law and order nay reign tri nxpbant, is devoutly to be wished by every iorer of Lis conntry. The occurrences of the past few dsys have inspired us with a brpe of better things from Lincoln's admin istration than we have heretofore entertain el. He now sees and feels the awful re sponsibility of the position in which he is placed, and the opportunity which he has of being the rarior instead of the destroyer of this great Nation, and we shall.be surprised and disappointed if his inaugural address fails to sa'isfy moderate and conservative men, while it offends the fanatical and em bittered school of the Black Republicans of vbich Greely is the head. "Rut there is no pietical use now in mere anticipations, bi!e the realization of mighty events is so near at hand,'' HEATH OK WYATT C AKDIY E LL.'

Apri cot trees are in full bloom, Peach and Pear trees are in the act of bursting ont into bloaeom, and the Elms are almost in leaf.; Everybody who ha a garden is busy in it, and potatoes, onions, peas, lettuce, &e., fcc, are being buried with the hope of a profita ble resurrection.

Applause. Brtoieed, That our government can never be sustained by bloodshed, applause.1 but must live in the aflsctiooa of the "people. We are, there fore, utterly opposed to any measures that will evoke civil war ; and the workingmen of Phila delphia will, by the use of all constitutional means, and with our moral and political iafluence, oppose any such extreme policy or a fratricidal war thus to be inaugurated. Applause. UraolttJ, That we earnostiy recniumcnd the repeal of all acts of Pennsylvania which are not consonant with a spirit or friendliness to our sis ter States ; and that we recommend the working metrortbiscitv to hold our Senators aed Repre sentatives in Congress, and in the State Legisla ture, to a strict account for the fulfilment of the promisee made to the workingmen's committee of thirty-three, at Washington and llarrisburg. Applause. On the same day a National Workingmen's Convention assemblod in Philadelphia. Dele gates were present from the States of Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, Indiana, Tennes see and Ohio. Th'i Plot to Assassinate th PaxrfiDxrr Elxct. A special despatch from Washington to tbelfew York Time of Tuesday says: Information is before the proper authorities ten ding to prove that an organized band of five hun dred men have sworn that Mr. Lincoln shall never sleep ia the White House. A detective, who join ed them, says the plan is as follows : Tho entire band are to occupy a position as near to the Pres ident on Inauguration Day, as they can ob- tain. One of their number, atanding in the cen ir nf thn. u to ahoot Mr. Linooln . with an air- gun, when the crowd of men around the assassin will so hide him .ai to render detection impossible. ATTiMrr to Kitt Ma. Lixcolx. The Syra cuse Journal states that just as the presidential train was leaving Cincinnati a grenade- of the most destructive character was discovered in the car occupied by Mr. Linooln, his family and per sonal friends; It was found 4a a carpet bag, which had been deposited in a seat of the car by tome unknown person. Attention was drawn to it from the fact that no baggage was allowed in the cars. On examination, the grenade concealed in the carpet bag was discovered to be ignited, and so arranged that utitAim Atefd minuie$ it mould hare exjdoded, with a force sufficient to have demoliahed the car and destroyed the lives of all the persons in it. 1 . - ' . 1 From the Register Extra of Thursday. HIGHLY IMPORTANT FROM WASHINGTON , THE FORCE BILL KILLED t ! A COMPROMISE ADOPTED! PEACE CONGRESS ADJOURNED. We learn from- the Richmond Dirpatch (a Se cession paper,) that the House of Representatives on Tuesday last, "by a vote of 100 to 74, postponed Stanton's Force Bill until Thursday, bringing it under the President's rule not to sign any -bill three days before adjournment." "This," says the Dispatch, ,"ts equivalent te the defeat of the bill." This information confirms the dispatch re ceived in thu city on Tuedajr from the Hon. Z. li. ance, stating that the f orce bill had been killed. This news is true. It states factt and not the mere oium of a fire-eater. The Baltimore American, of Tuesday, publishes the following extract of a letter from "a distin guished member " of the Peace Conference, dated at Washington Monday morning : " As a matter of opinion, I can say,. peace will be preserved, and the Union restored. We have- reached the bottom of our troubles, and hence- rortn our fortunes will be brighter. I be Confer ence has met and overcome the Territorial diffi culty, in a mode satisfactory to all the tlave Slates rrprernUd, and we entertain no doubt that we snail overcome all other difficulties, and reach result on all points in controversy, to the satisfac tion of a large majority, and probably close cur isDors on .Tuesday. 1 cannot be mora explicit." . j Thdr secession paper in this place has issued an uu laiwuicu ku inuauio uio siciwuisut auu iu precipitate the people into the choice of men who will precipitate them from the Union. The new which we give above wa believe to be authentic We have little doubt that Lincoln's sudden ar rival in Washington was the result of a plan of his friends to let him see the precise ground on which he and the country stood, and that he has determined to acquiesce in' measures vhich will prevent the horrid result of a civil war, while at the same time the rights of all th'e States will be preserved. This view ot the matter is confirmed by the fact that Jefferson Davig, the so-called "Presideot of the Confederated States of the South," is in Charleston, and has agreed to await the tenor of Lincoln's inaugural before an attack is made upon Fort S umter. TUB LATEST t PEACE CONGRESS ADJOURNED! A SATISFACTORY COMPROMISE ADOPTED 1 The following dispatches received last night show that our National difficulties have been set tled, as far as the .

They think that tbe honor of their State demands the pulling down of tho stars and 6tripei, and, as Wellington said of his young soldiers,; will "rush to death, as to a dance" in the attempt, j It is very possible that these words may excite a "pooh" or a "pshaw," but the men are hi earnest, and have pluck enoughto render any cause formidable. ; The garrison j mostly Irishmen, have been working night and dry in completing the fortifU cation, at tho period of their occupation! in such an imperfect state that they could not have resisted an attack,had one been made by the Charles tonians. The main doorway is built up so that two men cannot walk abreast througk it ; one armed with a revolver or a bowie knifa might defend it against a hundred assailants, supposing he were not shot himself. Just within, orpoeite thejioor, is a huge niortnr. The stones on the wb arf have been removed to strengthen the weak 6ide of the fort. There are piles of hand grenades ry for use. The lower casemates have been closed fast, the guns shotted, -piles .of grapes and (canister placed beside them. ' ' j - j The Major looks harassed and wan. but oerfect- ly resolute; he can talk of nothihe but the fort and his position ; he admits thai he dreams ' oi it oy nigni wnen ce sieer. lie deplores tne : i. : i : i r , i -.

His men are ajl faith ful and resolute, in' perfect military discipline : they never grumbled or mulined all 6tories to that eflect being unmitigated lies. They look haggard and worn, and preserve strict I silence when questioned. They do not now exDect to be reiniorcea. jusjor Anderson still bopes tbe busi ness may be settled without bloodshed. ' But he will defend himself to the last, if attacked. Such, three nights ago, was the internal aspect 'of Fort oumter. 1 ,i The Poweb-'of Heartt La.oq,iter. The following incident comes to us thoroughly authen ticated, although we are not at liberty to publish any names. A short time since two individuals in this city were lying in one room very sick, one with brain lever and the other with an aggrava tea caseoi.mumps. ; iney were so low tnafe-watch- ers were needed every night, and It was thought doubtful if the one siclfof the feVer recovered.- A gentleman was engaged to watch one night. his duty being to wake tbe nurse whenever it be came necessary to ; administer medicine.! In the course ot the night both watcher and nurse fell asleep. The man with the mumps lay watching the clock, and saw that it was time to give, he the fever-patient his potion. He was unable to speak loud or to movo any portion of his body exceptbis arms, but seizing a pillow, he managed to strike the watcher in tbe face with it. Thus suddenly awakened th watcher sprang from his seat, falling to the fl floe and awakening . both the nurse and fever-patient. The incident struck both the sick men as very ludicrous, and they laughed most heartily at it for fifteen or twenty minutes. When the doctor came in the morning be found his patients vastly improved faid he had never Known so suuaen a turn tor tae better and tney aro now botn out and well. Who says laugh ing Is not the best of medicines 7 Neiq Haven rallnditnn. FOR THE REGISTER. Mr. Editor: I wish to present to your read ers one of the ways to independence which has the merit of being prai-tieal. It is simply to make at home every article of necessity that the people require, and especially such-commodities the raw material for which is the growth of North Caroline. The article of starch is one. of these, and for which the entirn South is and! must re main entirely dependant upon the "North until JR i is made at home. jot a solitary lactory worth the same exists in the South, while North Caro lina has more natural facilities for manufacturing that article than any part of the United States. It may not be known to your readers .hat North ern manufacturers of starch ; import from North Carolina from 200,000 to 300,000 bushels of corn annually, because it is richer in starch, add makes a more beautiful article than any other corn. Not only should a supply for borne consumption be made in North Carolina, but a surplus for ex portation also. North Carolina consumes about 1,600,000 lbs. per annum, nearly all made in tbe 400 starch factories of the North. The little State of Rhode Island consumes id her cotton fac tories over 2,000,000 lbs., while she produces not a particle of the raw material. J In .the high lands of Nbrth Carolina, are ample waterfalls, and the purest spring-water, just thr thing tcant ed, in abundance. r I" To enterprising capitalist the subject presents strong inducements and but little risk. Property holders are also interested, because every such fac tory will cause a thriving village to spring up around it. -r What has made sterile New England to be dotted all over with little towns and flourish ing villages?
