We understand that, thus far he has fully sustained his high reputation as a pilled and fearless debater. Indications are daily multiplying that cer. tain of the Democracy do not intend that the voice of the peoplk shall be heard They shrink from the harvest of their own sowing. We shall see. " In the Senate, Mr. Washington th distin guished Senator from Craven, who was enti tled to the floor, addressed the Senate tit much length, in support of Mr. Woodfin's resolutions. He began by expressing his gratificatiofi at hearing the patriotic and noble sentiments ut. tered by the Senator from Buncombe, Mr. Woodfin, arrd he desired as an Eastern rhan, to respond to such sentiments. He warmly: and eloquently urged their adoption, as the means of rescuing North Carolina from her present deptessed condition, and elevating hef toj the position she is entitled 19 assume among her sister Stales dwelt ut large upon the many advantages she possessed in agricultural, min eral and commercial wealth and said, ; she only wanted these resources lo he developed, lo place: her in the: front rank of the Atlantic Stales. Th connexion of Beaufort vii h ihe Western cpnfines jof the State, by means of the Central Bail Road, would effect all these oh. jects, and nothing short of that improvement could bring about results so desirable. Mr. W. drew a-graphic picture of the State as it is, and what it might be, if the proposed improvement wirre completed, fie said that Resolved, That the Executive Committee be directed to prepare and publish an address to the people of North Carolina, setting forth the objects of this Association, and asking the co operation of all citizens in furthering its inter, ests. The' Hon. John M. Moiehead, of Guilford, was unanimously elected President ofthe Asso ciation for the ensuing year. The Hon. David L. Swain, of Chapel Hill. Col. Henry. Eljjolt, of Cedar Falls, Randolph, Geo. McNeill, of Fayeiieville, John B. Barrett, of Milton, and N. W. Woodfin, of Ashville, : were elected Vice Presidents. Edmund B. Freeman, of Raleigh, was elec ted Recording Secretary. ! James F. Taylor, of Raleigh, was elected 1 Corresponding Secretary. Charles B. Root, of Raleigh, was elected Treasurer. S. W. Whiting, Wm. D, Cook, Seaton Gales, Dr. Chas. E. J. Hale, were elected Executive Committee. Mr. James F. Taylor oflbred the following Resolution; which was adopted : Resolved, That the Executive Committee of the Industrial Association of N. C. present a memorial to the Legislature, now in Session, selling forth and showing ihe importance to the welfare of the Slate, of Geological, Mineralo. gical and Agricultural Survey. No further business arising before the Con vention, and after some highly practical and sensible remark from Mr Makepeace, of Randolph, a resolution was adopted requesting the Editors of the several Newspapers, in N, Carolina, to publish the pr6ceedings of this Convention ; whereupon The Convention adjourned to meet again in this city, on Wednesday, Oct. 1st, 1851. Ly which we shall be governed In politics we will be decidedly Whi, and shall en- deavor with all our ability, to sustain the cause of this I great Republican Parsty, consequently we will" give the I present administration our hearty support. We will at 1 all times, however, reserve to ourse-lves the privilege of I condemning whatever we may think wrong, either in j friend or foes. While, we shall use all honorable efforts to advance the interests and defend t lie conservative principles of our Parly, we' will practice a system of courtesy, towards our opponents, so long as they conduct j themselves in such a way as to deserve it. ! " Perhaps it is useless to say we are true Southrons,' I though we consider the Compromise, effected by the last Congress on tht Slavery question, as a great and patri otic measure, well deserving the approbation of all par ties who desire the peace and happiness of their country. But while we are in favor of the late Compromise, we deny the charge made against us of being 'submission ists,' and will t;ik.e occasion to hurl it back upon it? au thors let them 'commend the poison challice to their own lips,' we'll none of it.; We will endeavor to make the 'Mercury' interesting to all but particular attention will be made to the de partments of Mining and Agriculture.

On taking the Chair, Gov. Morehead briefly addressed the meeting on the objects (or which th meeting wascalled. He was followed, at more lengthy by Col. Elliott, who indicated some of ihe' particular objects which it was advisable to takeiinlocon iideration ; especially ihe propriety of Jolldwing the example jA other Slates by holding Slate r airs.

Col. ElliotW.n. D. Cooke and E. J. Hale were appointed the Commitlee. The Convention then adjourned until to mor row rnorti-iiig, 9 o'clock. j in the Deed of Trust law has been reported against by the Judiciary Committee more on account of the diffi culties attending the details of the bill, than from opposi tion to its principle. County Courts and the Constitu tion will probably remain untouched, as there is a strong disposition among the majority to cling to old things, no matter how wrong or ridiculous. The Manchester re lief bill has been killed in the Senate by seven votes, and is completely defunct. There will, I am afraid.be two Bank Charters grant ed, one for Washington and another for Greensboroiigh. I will vote against them upon the ground of public poli cy, as we have enough of capital invested in Bank Stock for the commercial wants of the Country, and it ought to be directed to manufacturing, which will be more beneficial to the State at large.
