We have rarely met with anything more beautiful than the following, which we find in the rsew lork Mirror, of a recent date : - "All that live must die ; Passing through Nature to Eternity." Men seldom think of the great event of Death until the dark shadow falls across their own path, hiding forever from their eyes the face of the loved ones whose living smile was the sun light of their existence. Death is the great an tagonism of Life, and the cold thought of the tomb is the skeleton in all our feasts. We do not want to go through the dark valley, al - though its passage may lead to Paradise ; and with Charles Lamb, we do not wih to lie down in the mouldy grave, even with kings and prin-1 ces for our bed fellows. But the fiat of Nature is inexorable. There is no appeal or reprieve from the great Law that dooms us all to dust. We flourish and fade like the leaves of the for est, and the frailest flower, that blooms and withers in a daj, has Dot a frailer bold on life than the mightiest monarch that has ever shook the earth by his footstpps. Generations of men appear and vanish like the grass ; and the countless multitudes that swarm the world to day will to morrow disappear liks foot-prints on the shore : "Soon as the tising tide shall beat, Each trace will vanish from the sand." In the beautiful drama of Ion, the instinct of mmortality so eloquently uttered by the death - devoted Greek finds a deep response in ererv . , i , it.- i thoughtful soul. It is nature prophecy of life to come. When about to yield his young exis- tence as a sacrifice to Fate, his betrothed Clem- anihe asks if they shall not meet again. To which he replies : "I have asked that dreadful auestion of the hills that look eternal ; of the owering streams that lucid flow forever : of the stars amid whose fields of azure my raised spirit hath walked in glory. All were dumb. But while I gaze upon thy living face, I feel there's something in the love which mantles its beauty that caiAot wholly perish, meet again, Clemanthe." through We shall ff PRESENTATION OF A BIBLE. I -w- itt gCU- ior editor of the National Intelligencer, by the teacher and scholars of a Sunday School, who had a festival on his grounds near Washington, on the last 4th of July. Mr. Gales replied to the address, on the occasion, -as follows : " I accept, your present, eir, with my left band : would to God I could do it with my right ! I concur in all the patriotic sentiments you have uttered; and especially do I acknowledge that we are indebted for oUr prosperous and hap py condition as a nation to tbt principles of the Christian religion. Without tb i we never could have succeeded as we have. Your enjoy, ment of my grounds for the celebration of our national anniversary affords me great pleasure. They are at your service as long as I live, and when I am gone, I hope they will pass into the hands of others who will cheerfully accord to you tne same privilege. Bo If I had entertaineTthe sUghtest expecUtion that the presentation of your gift would be ac companied by an eloquent speech, I might have been prepared for a more suitable reply ; but as I have been taken by surprise, you will accept a simple expression of my thanks, and excuse the brevity oi my aaaress.

If the Whigs come to the Polls in their atrengtht on Thursday, locofocoism will not have a foot of ground to stand upon in North Carolina. Will the Whigs, then, all do their duty t Who will neglect it, when a single vote is so impor tant? We hope not one. It is culpable negli gence nay, it is treason, for a man to say that "thry can get along without my vote." The vote that you thus disregard, the struggling patriots in despotic countries would surrender their heart's blood for the privilege of casting 1 It is your voice your share in the Administration of a part of the noblest and most powerful govern ment in the world ! Unlike the bowed and crashed spirits of other climes, who meekly kneel at a Tyrant's feet, and submissively obey his edicts, the American citizen, with the bal lot in hand, without bloodshed, by the mere ex. ercise of'hi will, calls the Rulers of the people to account, and sweeps corruption from high places! That weapon, "Surer yet, And better than the bayonet ; A weapon that comes down as still, As snow flakes on the sod, And executes the Freeman's will. As lightning does the will of God" that weapon IS YOUR OWN. Then bear con stantly in mind, that the patriots, whose blood handed it to you as your inheritance, and that posterity, wherein centres the last hope cf Free dom, all demand its exercise .' WHIGS OF THE CENTRE! Wo greet you on the prospects of success to our cause, which are breaking in udod us from a of thc guttf , wj have beeQ a pealed to, l v our friends at a distance, to know whether thc Whigs of the Centre will do their duty on thc third f Augnest next and we have folt ourselves justified in responding promptly : "Yes ! they will be found true to their cause and the country, when the day of conflictcomes." And when were the Whigs of the Centre ever faithless to their duty ? When did the Whigs of Granville, Franklin, Warren (though few in numbers, yet as true as steel,) Wake, John ston, Nash (God bless the gallant eighty-eight !) Halifax, Orange or any other county, which occupies the centre of the Whig army of the State, ever falter in the hour of trial and of danger If Never I Never ! ! We call upon them to rally once more around the old Whig banner, which they have so often aided in holding aloft in triumph ! Let us not forfeit the proud name we have for fidelity to our glorious cause. Whins of the Centre! Our bretttren of the ; p f nd ' West .-our friends throughout the i " i country, expect us lo do cur duty ! Ut us not disapjtoint them ! I STAND FIRM, WHIGS! No one can rend the last number of the "Stan dard," without seeing that the enemy wavers. and that it requires but a few more volleys to make our victory certain ! Let the Whigs stand firm then until the day for action, which is near at hand, arrives : and then a bold, resolute and determined charge from the whole line will se cure us a triumph which will gladden the heart of every true Whig in the Union ! And is not the cause worthy of our zealous and united ef- i fyrts? Does not every patriot feel that the ! nrppnt mrrunt and ;..w;1b Ainl.tr.tmr, u- u i r r j .i at r i which uas lorjeiHfu me connuence even oi us ' f)Wn friends, deserves a signal and emphatic ! rebuke at the hands of the honest voters of North Carolina?

Galhnt Whios of the Centre East I to your duly then, like men, resolved r, .. , fhattfdefei rest brn you . if defeat should befall us, the blame shall not TAKE DEED, WHIGS!

If it does not open their eyes to the rash, the mad, and desperate -game, which the leaders of the locofoco party, headed by that arch disuniooist, Thomas L. Clingman, are playing, then would they sleep on, if one were to rise from the dead and warn them of their danger ! Keev it before tftc People, That Thomas Bragg has announced himself in favor of the doctrine of secession-. He did not dare to do this, to come out, openly, with this nefarious doctrine in the Centre or the East, but kept back his real opinions, to ride successfully on the back of Clingman ! We appeal to every true patriot in the State to arouse himself to action, action, and nut down, once more, the men who are r plotting the destruction of the Uujon, and the peace of the Country ! Let the rallying cry go round, Dockerv, our Country, and Victory ! JUST AS WE EXPECTED ! We call the attention of the People to the fact that the organ of the locofoco party in this State publishes an account of the passageof the'Home etead Bill" through the Senate, without one word of comment ! Some weeks since, that print de nounced the Bill in unmeasured terms, and told the nil hlic. with an air of confidence, that it i- would certainly fall under the veto of the Prcs ident 1 But a sudden and great change has come over the spirit of its dream ! It has learned, no doubt, that th Bill which passed the Senate, (far more odious than the original measure) is a bantling of the Administration that it will pass the House, and be approved by the Presi dent ; yet not a word of opposition or disapprov al issues from the Standard ! It submits with tame servility to the edicts of its Party, and re fuses to raise its voice against this foul injus tice to the old States ! Shame Shave ! "Vote for the true friends of Free Suffrage, for Southern rights, and for the chosen leader of the Republican hosts, Thovias Bragg! Vote for the honest and reasonable advocates of a judicious and progressive system of Internal Improvements !" Standard. This is indeed amusing ! No doubt the Edi tor was laughing in his sleeve when he penn' ed it. 1st. "Vote for the true friend of Free Suf frage," that is, Thomas Bragg, who has always been opposed to it ! Vote for William Eaton, of Warren, who is open and above board against it, and who is to be the successor of JVfr. Ed wards, who killed it in the Senate ! 2nd. "Vote for Southern rights," that is, foi Franklin Pierce, who took Van Buren to his bosom, and appointed McKeon, a rank aboli tionist, to the office of District Attorney of the United States for the State of New Y'ork 1 3rd. "Vote for the reasonable and honest ad vocates of a judicious and progressive system of Internal Improvements," that is, for Mr. Bragg, who would not borrow a dollar to extend the Central Road, so as to give the Western People a market ; and for Asa Biggs, who would ex tend it to Beaufort, but would not appropriate a cent to carry its blessings Westward! These are the 'reasonable and honest advocates,' this the ' judicious and progressive system 1" If the "reasonable and honest" friends of In ternal Improvements, especially in the West, would mark the duplicity and deception of the "Standard" and his allies, they would scorn the appeal which is made to them ! We again warn our Whig friends against the circulation of falsehoods against Gen. Dock ery on the eve of the election I What dirty work are the leaders of locofocoism not capable of, when they can justify such a known false hood, as the one put forth in blazing capitals, by the last "Metropolitan." that Gen. Dockery is in favor of the Maine Liquor Law! The sys tem of tactics adopted by the leaders of the Party, from the commencement of the cam paign, has been, to put down Geni D. by lying and abuse, if possible ;Ttiey Vnew if they ad hered to. the truth, that he would grow in pop ularity; ' even ; in their own -ranks ! But the People JiaVe had their-eyespened to the foul means which have been adopted to defeat him, and they will rebuke it with telliDg effect on the day of election ! "A little more grape, Capt.

With many wishes for your success and happiness, s kol vours, : Very truly, DAVID A. BARNES Jackson, N. C, July 11, 1854. JBfcgf- The tenth section of the act of the Le gislature, calling the Convention of 1835, was. as follows, viz : " 10. Be it furtlier enacted. That no delegate 6hall be permitted to take his seat in the Con venrion, until he shall have taken and sub scribed the following oath or affirmation; "I, A. B., do solemnly swear (or affirm as the case may be.) that I will not, either directly or indirectly, evade or disregard the duties enjoin ed, or the limits fixed to this' Convention ty the people of Awrft Carolina, as set forth in tne act of the General Assembly, passed' in 1834, entitled " An act concerning a Convention to amend the Constitution of the State of North Carolina," which was ratified by the People: So help me God!" There was no provision in the Constitution, prior to 1835, for limiting a Convention, yet it was limited, and such was the oath taken. by the Delegates. What, has been done can be done ajrain the groans of the "Standard" to the contrary notwithstanding ? Now, are the Whijjs of the East unwilling to trust their Wee- tern brethren ? They have ever been true to the interests of all sections of the State," and no People on earth have been more liberal and generous in their votes, than the Whigs of the We.t! S" What has Thomas Bragg ever done to advance the cause of Internal Improvements in North Carolina? When did he ever make a speech in behalf of the improvement of the State ? Wheu did he ever subscribe a farthing towards euch an object? When did he lose an opportunity, before bis nomination, to denounce and oppose Internal Improvements and those who sustained them ? Yet, his partizaoa have the brass to pres him on the People, aa a "simon-pure friend" of a liberal system of In ternal Improvements 1 Who is so green as to be caught in the trap which haa been set for the voters of the State by Asa Biggs, the most inveterate enemy to Internal Improvements that can be found in the State ?
