At a meeting at Castle Garden, New York. February 25, 1850, to consult upon measures for the preservation of the Union. the follovying resolutions Were unanimous ly adopted : i 1 i Resolvkd That the people of New York without distinction of sect or party, are ardently cje voted to the union of "these Stat.es, as,!next to our .liberties, the most precious of their political institutions ; and having never yet begun5 to calculate the value of this. Union, can contemplate no contingency in wfcich its dissolution would be otherwise than a gigantic crime a gainst the peace,?prosperity, and freedom ofi our couptry and of mankind. Resolved, That in the resolutions lately submitted to the Senate 'pi the U. States by Mr. Clay, looting to a complete and final; settlement bf all questions relating to slavery, on which the feelings of the Northern and Southern sections of our country have been excited against each other, we joyfully recognize the basis of an harmonious and brotherly adjustment a most distracting and perilous controver sy ; and entreat our fellow-cilizens of all parties and sections to study those resolu tions carefully, ami in a spirit of devotion toi the Union and perpetuity of this noble Confederacy. " : ' Resolved, Thati in view of the above considerations, we accept, as the basis of a compromise, the preamble anil resolu tions as introduced by jIr. Clay into the United Stales on, the 19th January, 1852. General ScottH being present at this meeting, was called on, and rising amid long continued cheers, addressed the meet ing as foljovvs : FellowiCitizeasf: Your kind greeting fills: me with the deepest emotions. 1 came here not expecting to take more than a stand in sqme corner of the great hall .to witness the proceedings. Some kind; frieltid discovered me below, or I should not have stood in this conspicuous place. II! did not expect to address one word to this meeting! I see before me mucn of .the intelligence, respectability, and sterling worth of this great city, as sembled here fori the purpose of support ing our great Union, of which I am hum ble friend and servant. ' I do not call my self a citizen of the North, of the South, of the East, or of the West ; but I have served the Union for forty odd years, and feel myseilf a citizen of every part of it; and whatever life and strength ! may have SHALL BE I DEVOTE TO ITS ! rESERPVATION. - Feeling that it was in jeopardy, and that this meeting, had assembled to promote HARMONY jND PRESERVE THE UNION, I Came, here, and.; return you many thanks for the kindness jvvith which you have welcomed me. j ; I am not an Abolitionist, nor an advo cate ' of slavery. I come ,not here as a Democrat or a iVJiig. ' I have attended no party meeting; in foty-two years. But when the! cry is that tiie Union is in dan ger, and ia rally is made to support U 1 would have been a coward and a recreant if I had not also rttll icd ! I Of whatever value may be the remaind er of my j life, (and none sets more value on it thajn 1 do,) 1 would give it in support oftheUkion, I'hope I :may not live to see Ms dissolution : but, if unabfe to avert its fate, t would be burield beneath its ru ins I ti ' I 1:1 - ' . Lam charmed with , the good teeling and universal patriotismjwhich this meet ing has exhibited '$ andtGod grant that you may devise Isome, plan to save that Union to which we all, in heart and soul, are so much attached ! ! The meeting then adjourned with three cheers fir the Union and Compromise, r Nati Intelligencer. THE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATIONS at THE With the exception of one newspaper in Tennessee (atlKnoxville) wd have not received-a single Whig spaper from any Southera State, eicept Geprgia, that refus es to support the I nominations for Prest dent and Vice president lately: made by the Whig National Convention. On the cbntrarj they promptly and 1 manfully place the names of the candidates at the head of their columns, an3 promise to give them a cordial and hearty support, l he following article from the Eufaula (Ala.) Shield i in tbe right spirit JSTat. Int. ' Our If lag. We unfurl to the breeze this week our banner, with the names ol Scott apd Graham inscribed thereon as candidates for l& Presidency and Vice Presidency of thcf United States. 1 In doing so it is useless-to say that Gen. Scott was notour preference for that dis tinguished and honorable position, ve ry one who knows oqrsentiment is aware that we have from the first advocated strenuously tbe claims of bur Worthy and patriotic Chief Magistrate, Millard Fill more. The Convention which has just closed its labors, in its wisdom;and discre tion has deemed it impolitic to nominate him, and we have determined to abide in good faith the nomination of Gen. Scott. We will support him ; f j 1st. Because we believe him to be more of a statesman than Gen. Pierce ; equal ly sound on questions of vital interest to the South, with more experience anu ca pacity for the station; ; ' 2d. liecause be has planted himself up on a platform manufactured by the hands of Southern men a platform guaranty ing every thing claimed by the South and a platform of such sound timbers and constructed in such an elegant style of workmanship as to be ample and capa cious enough for the North, South, East, and West, as common brotherhood, i 3d. We will support him because he is a man of Unquestionable ability, unblem ished character, unflinching patriotism, of high and noble impulses, and a man who, when convinced fhat he is right, goes ahead. ; Lastly. We will support him because we are convinced that the reorganization of old parties at the South is inevitable. He is a Whig, has always been one,; and expects always to be one ; therefore we would prefer defeat with our friends than triumph with our enemies.' r These are some of the reasons why we will support the statesman, hero, and pa triot j fully confident that; if the Whigs will unite, as the should, in the sustainance of such a man and such principles, one of the most brilliant victories will be ours that was ever recorded in trie history of our country. Recollect the language of him who said, " United we stand divided we fall." , The " North Alabamian," published at Tuscumbia, thus announces the reception of the nominations and its purpose to maintain them : i The Whig Nominees. In another, col umn we give the platform of principles adopted by the Whig National Conven tion, together with the response by aipor tion of the Whig press to the nominatiens. So far all looks well. No compaign with in our recollection has opened as flatter ingly. I It is true that a few Southern Whig papers refuse to support Gen. Scott. and occasionally we find individuals oc cupying the same position. Yet those who remember the reception of the nomina tion of Gen. Harrisons over Hekry Clay, in 1840, and the marked dissatisfaction of a large portion of the Southern Whigs, will feel small uneasiness fort the final de termination of the present discontents. They will be compelled to support either Scott, Pierce, or nobody ; and we know too well the material of which Southern Whigs are composed to believe for a mo ment that they can be driven into the sup port of Locofocoism, or to give " aid and comfort :to the enemy,!' by standing aloof merely because: they did not get their fa vorite! candidate. Such a course would be a virtual acknowledgment that they held iti higher regard! than principles. Wc say again to our Whig'friends, all looks iwcll so far; and we should not be at EtlLsurprised if Scott receives a vote equal to that of Harrison in 1840. MORE HELP FOR REID I-SENA-TOR DOUGLAS. Gen. Saunders having failed, on account of the "bad water" and fom Other mo tives of a prudential character!, to meet his appointments to bolster up the sinking prospects of MH$ Excellency, we learn, by private letter from Richmond, that Stephen A. Douglas, of Illinois, is now in that City, and supposed tojbe en: route for North Carolirfa,; where he (comes for the purpose of enlightening the freemen of our State as to their duties; in the coming elections. So that, if not advised to stay away; as the Ex miuister,jwe rather, be lieve, was, we may expect, very shortly to have this itinerant lqcofoco United States Senator in .our midst leaving his duties at Washington to attend io them selves, i j 1 It will be recollected that this dirty de magogue, Douglas, was present, together with Gen. Houston, at thesConvention in this City, which -first nominated Reo in 1818, and that he is said to havej brought on the Free Suffrage hobby w ith him, and himself placed it upon the turf It had previously to that time, been the boast of both political parlies in North Carolina, that they interfered not with the elections of her sister Stafes, nor allowed interfer ence in hers by them. It was then, for the first time, deemed necessary that our "benighted and Ignorant People," asihey were termed by a member bf that Con ven tion, should be enlightened in relation to their duty to the ponstitution and the coun try. 'Then was une; stigma first; past ! Nqyv again, however, it seems to he found necessary to import one of the same politi cal missionaries to enlighten the " ignor ant and benighted People" of the State further, and to prop up the rider of that same Free Suffrage bantling, which he in troduced into our midst as an element of party capital ! We have widely mistaken the character of the people of North Carolina, if they will not set their faces as flints against such impudent attempts to dictate to them what are their-duties and what their rights. The main question involved in this campaign, antl. virtually to be decided by it, s of a local bearing and of vital im portance to our domestic concerns being nothing more nor less, than the question, whether it shall be submitted to the peo ple to say, if they desire a Convention to amend their own Constitution, or not. And here comes upa locofoco aspirant for the Presidency, from the noti slave holding State of Illinois, to give unsolicited advice in the' premises, to 'ad vocate and urge the claims of Reid and his hohfoy, and there by attempt to bias Dur People against the only plan by which the conflicting issues of Constitutional Reform can be definitely and satisfactorily adjusted the only plan, too,, which guaranties the full sovereignty of THE PEOPLfE. We know of nothing to equal this in arrogance ' and offensive ness, unless it be the insolent and auda cious efforts of Kossuth to embroil us in difficulties with Other Powers and to undo in the minds of our . people the effect jpf the teachings of Washington and the other Patriots and' Sages bf the Revolution ! Will the freemen of North Carolina sub mit to the insolence of either ? We need not ask the question. 1 ' 'i As we remarked, with reference to the Ex-Minister's Contemplated but ; never fulfilled expedition, Jet Douglas " come on," by all means, k The People will give him-the reception due to his effrontery ; and many a littlje David Will spring up to meet the " Young Giunl" in his progress through our borders in order to illuminate former: period, in the whole history of North the darkness under Which, we are pre Carolina,! was there ever a more important lelec- j surried to grope hJldlcigk Register.. tioninlhe State, in the bearings it uiij have THE CONTEST.

" Now.'Vsaid Charlie Pipers mother to him, as be went oit of the dobr to go to school, ' don't you hat bor that thief t$ day : remember " " Nfoj mother. I thill nfa" an swered Charlie Piper, deliberately and emphatically, iji j j What, a child of Charlie Piper's bigness harbor a theif? Que would think he could have nothing; to do with thieves. Yes, one wou d suppose so, and yet there was one thief so sly that he used to insinuate himself into Charlie's good graces, and Chaf lie used to go with him ; ahd although he well knew thatlit grieved his mother, and Cer ainly hurt his character, yet it was some time before he iiad firmness enough to take a manly stand against him. !- - - ,j As he pushes off to school, his mother bids him remember 1" On he goes until he gets a.lmost over the bridge, wbjen he stops a minute to iwatch the little min nows darting around in the Water lelow. He almost wished he was a minnow, that he bad no grammar to learn, or cpy to write ; h s was sure minnows must be very happy, with nothing to do the live-long day but play in water. j Charlie well knew he had not k mo ment to spare on the bridge ; he kneiv that precisely five minutes after nine the mas ter fastened the door for prayers, and no tardy boy could get in ; he knew it was too bad hus to lose a whole haij-day's school, but for all that he kept stepping" and delaying. In fact his old companion, the thief, Was by his side, ready toj steal his precious moments ; so the bof kept stopping and stopping, thinking about the minnow:, and saying, Oh, it is toq plea sant to be cooped up in that old school room," until, all at once, his mother's word, "rMwewi&er ' rushed into his mind.- It seemed as if she spoke it again jin his ear. He started up from his lounging at titude, tlircw back his arms, as much as to say, " Hands offt Mr. Thief 1" anjj took to his heels in the direction of the school room. Charlie run with all his might. He arrived just jtrje moment jthe master was about locking the door, and happily got in. " Good V jsaid Charlie, looking as glad as could be f'Good 1 1 made fny es cape that lime ji did! Good-by, ltr. Thief ; you andj, I hope, have donie hair ing any more deaUogs together." I - Charl ier WBisras good as his word ; add from this time, instead of being a oy-always delaying, always behind-hand, e be came the very sou of promptness. jHere after, "procrastination," which the proverb calls the "thief of time," kept at a dis tance, and at last ceased to trouble him altogether. 1 j Now, do the children think what a bald thing this procrastination is? Procrasti nation, you know, is the spirit of delaying, of being behind hand in all your underta kings, and engagements, and duties. It is aptly called a thief, for it robs us if one of cur best treasures time. Did ydu notice bow it was trying to steal Char lie's time on the bridge? Avoid lhi; thie,f. .Say, "tlands off!" whenever he tjempb you to dally in your duties; and to! reso lutely and promptly whatever you lave o do, or as the Bible finely expresses jt, " Whatsoever yap do, do it heartilylto the Lord." Such a course will certaiijily rid you of bis troublesome and dangerous pre sence for ever. Try it. 1 avrr .
