From the Richmond Whig. A NORTH CAROLINA DEMAGOGUE. Ii is 1 sourcB of reoret. on eveiy account, that a spirit of candor and fairness carrnoi obiaip: in the iliscossion of all poblie qbestfbos would bp more honorable to the parties engaged in Iti'ise discussions; it would also be more benefi cial to the people. It would elevate the rone of public sentiment 5 it would 'make the conduct of public affairs what it should be, a mailer of right reason end of patriotism, and the best men in the land might then justly feel honored, in hear tng the burdsn of public trust. By pursuihg an • pposiie coiirso, politics are made to degenerate into a wretcherf scramble for place—in which, worthy and competent men engage with ex treme reloctancp, and only from a sense of the necessity of making sacrifices cf themselves, if need be, in the effort to save the Republic from the aosolole dominion of the depraved and roer canary. By a habiinal resort to unfair argument and false represeniatinn, the litigants tiieroselves become degraded, while they dehauch anrf de grade the people. Poblie questions are rarely decided upon their merits—piejudice and pas sion ar.Q falsehood bear alternate sway, and the common weal, in the inglorious eontest, is fairly lust siaht of. The people, whom the Dema- gnuiips for their own vile ends, flatter as ihe “ intallihle sovereigns”—” the pure and immac- olaip,” grntr daily more .ignorant, antf ;! UMiut tii-oeconre iim^. ■>- ! —n mercenary wretches, who practice upon their pcssioits. These general remarks have been prompted by the pernsal of a speech reeenily made at a Btthecue 'n Mecklenburg, N. C., fiy Wm. H. Haywood, the gentleman who was accidentally elc'ie.) last winter by the Locos, to represent the Whig State of North Carolina in the Se- inte of the II. From the little we have heard nf Mr. flnvvrnoil, we were inclined to think fitorable of him as a gentleman, though not as a politician. But this speech .iissipates ev cry iliiurr like, respect; and foifeit.s for him what ever prelen.sinns he may have had fur candor and veraeiir, n.nlo.ss he can lake shelter under the pica (it thii grossest igrirtrance A viler coni' poond nf slang, of disingennoiisriras. of affeeied fairness ar,| sindied scppre^sior, of truth and Bucgpssi():i of falseh'vid, snd of unmanly and on- g nerous impiiiatiens upon an adveisary, we 1)av« never seen. .'I'o say that it is unworthy of a menibcr of the most august assembly in the nvijrl i, '■vuiilil f>e tn use terms not at all suited to convey an idcit «jf it.s character. It rvere more n'ly des-cribed as the pruduciion of a pnliiical charlatan, i.nlo whose rompositicin the elements of knavrty, malignity and f. |ly were F(]ually blended, that the most delicate chemical appa ratus could vviih di.^culty determine which pre dominated ; while all the world could see that teach was in ex'c.f:,=s. 'rhe Honorable gentleman, ihe embryo Sena tor, sets out by charging the Whigs with the resiionsibilily for the condoct of public affairs since the expulsion of Van Ruren, and imputing to them a long caialogoe of sins t'f omission and commission— ho the least of which they deserve ifamiiaiion This charge of responsibility lias often been made before by grog shop Dema- c-' giics. and patiy 'liack^—ari'i as often refuted. Lioi we have never heard it advanced by any high minded an.l noble spirited member of the Democratic parly. It is a charge from wiiich a mao of troth and candour would shrink, because uf its filsiiv—and which a lofty, magnanimous nature tvould not touch — for knowing that wbai ever sc‘mblan.'’e nf troth there might be in it, s.irung not from crime, bill from misfortune, he wculi disdain to take socli advantage of a gal lant and bonurabie adversary. The VYhiff® were in the ascendant 30 days. This is histo ry. At the exoiraiion uf that time. Death rob bed them of their leader, and of the Esecinive department of the Government. Tliis was a misfortune which no hornao sagacity cooldhave foreseen or providtd against and might befall any partv, wiihoot sohjecitrig them in thejii(g- of the just, the liberal atiri magnanimons, to the .slighicsi censure, 'riie E.xecutivc branch of the Government then fell into the hands of one, who proved false to honor, to graiiinde and Iriends. I'liis also, is a misforinne to which all jnrlies are e.xposed, and which might befall any, v.t.'huul Justly incorriiig any very serinos hlame. Hot we confess there was a pnssibiUty f pre venting i'; and « haiever censure justl y attach es for not (oofiiing by iliai possibility, we admit, jns'ly falls upon the w liigs,—That is the extent of their ifT-ndiiig—no morn. I'hey did not fore- fp? iho death tl Gen. Harrison, and the resur rection uf lienedici .-Wniild. But conceding that tiie Whigs are justlv rc- eportstblH for iho entire adriiinisiralinn of affairs, for the Iasi three years, as il.e less gccerons of ihvir opponents conterid, how dares any member of ihe Lo.;ofoco party arraign ant' other party for malfeasanco in ufficp.? Did they not have charge nf the Government for twelve years, and were'ever the affairs of any Government so wretchedly rnanageti as by them ? Did they not rlesiroy Ihe prosperity of the people, and b.snkruoi the'I'reasury ? Did they not cause corropiton to pervade every branch of the public seivire? -And were ever so many people un done—so many hearts made to bleed over blight cd liopps. arid ruined fortunes? The misehief they have done to individuals may pass aw.ay vvitli the generation that sustained it; but the wrong done to our institutions, and to public morals will survive for ages, in the execrations of every votary iff liberty and virltie. If the Whigs were, in truth, Ihe responsible, and guilty party, they are held to be, would it tint still be a gohjcci of especial wonder, that a member of this pesiiferons horde, who had thus tfiiown dismay and rnin broad cast over the land, should have the hardihood to reproach them with itl But the Whigs, even if responsible, are not troll I y of the sins Maimed and manacled, as they were, by treach ery of the acting President, ihey have rlone more fnr Ihe public good, in the short lime of their as- cpodoncy, than waa achieved in the twelve yeuts of Locoiocii misiule.—But this iiMVicr of course —as the country ‘ gained rioi,h— iog mu n loss'by all the expuiments aod mea- .s.jrps of f.oc;.; c lisrp. Since ihe expulsion of Rogues and Knyalist,s’ (=0 dubbed by one of the most di.siing I'hed -jf their leaders,) the ex penses of tiie G-vornmcnl have been reduced folly a Third --inillione of poblie money have not opmly roromifiei] (o this com{|rotnjse, by wiiirh the taxes of the people were Mt lo exceed twen ty percent.

The next charge advraae^ is that the Whigs have quadrupled the debt. We again copy the gentleman’s uVM words. The VVhig'ppliiicians of 1840 proclaimed that the public debt fqaa growing too fast, and that they would pay, Ufeff by economy and re trenchment of espeul^. He referred the W big people to the faet^4»t the poblie debt was quadrnpled—and 8d|ed them if they had gair'ed any thing by this ? Their taxes duebted, and their debt quadiupi^d, he imagined might well be regarded as g|ffnlng a fo.ss—if they bad gain ed any thing.” V- The dinner ftfaior at some siagfs of his re- itnarhs ttrais intsirnpted by a person in the crowd, wiib the inq'niiy, ‘ waa it possible bis stateniein was true-?’ With a veiyTheatiic and imposing air, he put his hand upon his heart, and appeal ing to. hi? Maker, pledced his veracity for the > NntW **ef^'*'*hs i^ltGtiO. at ihTs siaienieni is false—false in all its parts—in line detail and the general, in terms and in spirit.—The W'higs have not quadrupled the Public Debt. The V.nn Ruren administra tion left liabilities exceeding Sti millioos of dol lars—with an accruing revenue of only about twelve or thirteen millions. When this reve nue was appropriated to meet those liabilities, there was still a balunoa of about 2-f millions for which lb's AVbigs were cornpelled lo provide, or leave the faiib of the Governruent miproitct- ed. They adopted the mai.ly and patriotic course of passing a lax hill to raise money to pay the enormoos debts entailed opnn them by the frugal thieves who had preceded them. Mr Haywood, in the next place, acensse the Whigs of p3s.sing a Distribaiioo Law and than nullifyipg it before the money was dis'.ribiiied.— This, in intent and substance, is like its asso ciates, false But every tyro in politics knows that; and therefore it would be a vain consutnp lien of iiik and p-aper to expose it. The rest of iii« produciion is of a piece with the specimens tve have given ; and the whole reg.irdkd as the opening of his Senatorial career, aiierore hul litlle of honorable diet in5ltbn fur htm. Mr. Haywood does not disclose hie Presiden tial preferences. Ho was elected by accident last Winter, in itonaeqoence of the unhappy dis sensions between Jurfge S.aunder3 and Bedford Brown—who were the represciiiaiives of rival Houses of Fort Hill and LiiKlenwold. T.bere 13 no dnobt bnt that he is at heart a biiler and malignai Van Burenite. Ha was, we believe, an inveterate office-seeker durii.g the late disas trous reign ; and when 'he outbreak occerred between Brown and Saunders, he very judicious ly concealed his opinions, or played the liypo- criip, so as to rise upon the riiio-s ol both. The remark has quite nearly mn into a proverb; that Ihe Demagogoes of North Carolina and 'I’en- nessee are the very vilest of their race.— We think it highly probable that the rerpark will lose none of its lorcc and aptness in the piaeii- cal illnstration it will receive from ike conduct of Mr. Wm.

The Globe and Enquirer have hern in- dnlgin^-xiAuppcolations upon tbe probahilty of CBirying the Presidential election to tbe House of Representatives. It will be re- collecled th>l General Jackson entered the House in 1S25 with a plurality of votes, and that because the vote of Ihe Bouse was given to Mr. Adams, a cry of “bargain, intiigop, end rhfrnpiiOD,” was raised. Ths Editors of the two papers above named, were as loud in condemnation of the gen tlemen who veted for Mr. Adams, as any person m ibis anion. They could not con ceive, pore, inncceut ereatnies as they were, bow meicbcrs of Congress could be so base, so lost to sll seoie of propriety, as to vote for any one who bad not the plu rality. Now, just hy way of gratifying onr ca riosity, ve almost wish this election coald be brought into the Hoiise. Not that it can ever, by sny possibility be carried there, but if it could we ahonld like to see—**— Suppose air Clay lo go tr, by Ihe. isreest plurality be could possibly get, and Van B-jren, josi to save hts skirls! Whom would Mesrss. BUir and Ritebie rerom- mend their Democratic friends in ibis Loeo Focn Congress to support? The plurality man or Ihe minority man ?
