Election on Thursday, ird Aug nrxi.
Air Arring ton's Circular.
The reader will find in !he preceding
columns the admirable Circular of Mr. Ar
rington. It presents a striking contrast, in
its direct, rorrpct. and unvarnished state
ments of facts and arguments, to the slang-
whang, wishy wa-hy, z g zig, mystified
productions of Mr. Stanly. v
Mr. Stanly in Edgecombe.
Tuesday last was the day appointed
for Mr. Stanlv to be a Mantonsbuig, in
this county. For sorre time Mr. Stanly
, 'declined coming to Edgecombe, whether
from contempt or dread we can't deier-
mine, as his words and deer's are at vari
ance on trfis point. However, through the
persuasion of his friends he went to Stan
fonsburg and addressed the people. He
i id heretofore in all his public meetings
challenged any body to reply to him if
they could; a defiance which the high spi
ri t of Edgecombe was not disposed to
brook, and he was theie met and success-1
fully met by Wm. Not fleet, Eqr., who
is a close ob;rver of the political move-j
rrients of the country, and particularly
understands the 4crooked ways' ol Ed
ward Stanly.
Mr. Stanly opened the discussion in a
spe ech of two hour, full of broad denuncia
tions of Democracy, abomiding wiih asser
tions, but very scarce of argument; and
sought to divert public attention from his
political course, by retailing the same hack
neyed jokes which he has spoken and told
in all his speeches in the district about
the 4,big ship sailing in a mill-pond," the
man who woke up in church and accused
the preacher of telling Whi'g In s' and the
fashionable "lady Avho dressed her piano
legs in pantalets. "
Mr. Norfleet replied with force and ef
fect, arraigned him for his political associa
tions with Abolitionists, and uniformly
supporting their movements his support
of a High Tariff and the burdens he was im
the industry of the poor his ef
V"' m"ty "
forts to fasten on he country another H oik,
subjecting us and our property to the con
trol and caprice of a monster, whose ruling
passion was avarice and its most powerful
rtieans oppression his squandering away
the public" funds by unwarranted extrava
gance his prescriptive policy, and the
general violation of all the promises of his
and the Whigs for r form' and tetiench
ihCnt'. This was a fearful account for a faithless
public servant to answer; but Mr. Stanly
tried in his usual manner of bare aseriion
and evasion to answer. He had supported
the movements of the Abolitionists, he
said, to bring the matter to a speedy issue.
The course he adopted in opposition to the
views and wishes of his Southern friends,
Whigs and Democrat, might have brought
it to a speedy end:' but it might have been
a very unfavorable one to his constituents.
Rash and thoughiless conduct, to array
himself, young and reckless, against the
dictates of age and prudence and the exam
pie of his colleagues dangerous conduct
in any Representative.
His vole on the TantThe was compelled
to admit, notwithstanding his constructions
d high colorings eUewhere. was an in-!
crease of taxes; but said, the salvation of
tin- coun'py 'depended on it. How dors it
happen that none of his colleagues, Whig
or Democrats, though the salvation df the
country so small a matter that it was o.ver-
looked by all of them, and he alone had the
sagacity and patriotism to preserve his
country at its last gasp. Twas party and
not rottidt) Tor whose salvation lie voted,
while the disinterested patriotism of his
colleagues Mipportpd their country.
Wednesday was Mr. Stanly's appoint
ment at R cky Mount, and the Whigs
were proclaiming his advent with their
roastii gs and pomp, and that his opponent
Mr. Arrihtflon was all aid to meet him.
Hut to their chagtinand mortification, Mr.
Airington w as the first on the ground, in
high spirits from his visit to ihe lower
counties, which he left in hasie to meet
Stanlv in Edgecombe and Nash. The (lis
cussion was carried on with spirit on both
sides, and closed after three speeches from
e.ich The result was highly gratifying to
the Democrats, and the high spirits and ani
mat ion of ihe Democrats with the silence
and depression of the Whigs, told too
pl.iinlv who had the advantage of the dis
cu?ion. And you will never hear the
Whig- in that region say, thai Mr. Arring
ton is aliaid to meet his opponent, or t ar- i
niMi the political conduct of Edw'd Stanly.
Mr. Stanly's Circular,
AIdressel t the p-ople,in .M ircii last,
has jusi come into our hands. It contains
such x'raordiiKiry .statements we are com-j

Now what "personal in'f r'ourse' his
Mr. Stanly ever had with his conMiluents?
Though piofcsing to be our Representa

portion ol his constituents has been none at
all; neither s; eking or desiiing any 'in

some occasional unkind or contemptuous
.-perch. Anil his only public act of repre
senting the large county of Edgecombe,'
was when his party got in power, the im
mediate proscription of a Postmas'cr, the

With thi specimen of his ideas of repie

He claims He.ufori as his ,f sidence, yet

the papeis of his gtcat "peisonal i n t er

We may infer from his voles on the Tariff)
and .Abolition questions. From his con
slant absence from his district, be may be
fa 1 1 1 y consilered an alien in feeling and in
fact, and his statement of ''personal inter
course" is an error.
The Extra Session
Is next introduced by Mr. Stanly in his
Circular: saying, it was called, to "raise
revenue," "provide for the public debt,"
and "prevent the bankruptcy of the Gov
ernment" And if this" was its object, his
tory has proved it a most signal f .ilure;
for the public debt was laigely increased,
no revenue law was passed, the Govern
ment became' bankrupt and its credit de
preciated below par. And all this caias
trophe happened before the Government
was one short year in the hands- of the
Whigs.
It was at this Extra Session they repeal
ed the law regulating and guarding the pub
lic treasury, and placing it in the hands of
the President, whom they new tell you is
a traitor and unworthy of any confidence
what inconsistency!
They attempted to put on the country
two tremendous banking insiitutions, in
the face of all the evils brought on the
count r by excessive banking.
i hey paascu a nwnouiion law, giving
away one of the main source' of Govern
ment revenue, at a time too when the Go
vernment was in debt, and without the
rrpstis of paying its ordinary exp-ri-fc?.
They pissed a Loan bill, which they could
not get taken at par.
And then, to cap the climax of this out
rageous legislation, they passed the Bank
rupt act; enabling those" who chose, to nul
lify and avoid their honest debts. This
law also contains sdme compulsory process
against traders, which they exempted the
banks from they were protected in their
exclusive privileges.
It is needle.-is id discdss the meii'3 of
these questions, they have all been con
demned by public opinion"; and the very
Whig Cdngress which passed them have,
under the condemnation of th ir consult i
ents, been compelled to repeal them. Yet
this is the Congress Mr. Stanly boast of.
and desires it recorded ori his tombstone
that he was a member of it.
The Hankrupt law deserves perhaps
more particular notice. Mr. Stanly voted
for it, and still says it is an admirable law.
protecting characters of persons disposed
to be dsihonest by upsetting deeds ot triM
and fraudulent conveyances. Surely Mr.
Stanly makes these assertions to gull the
ignorant. If Congress have any power
over ''deeds of trust," or the "characU rs"
of honest or dishonest people, we have nev
er seen the grant; and he knows", that du

since, deeds ol trust were made and can be

praises it was not entitled to. Hut Mr.

; -nanty was compelled to admit, wuh all ns'cratic lib ry. What! shall this proud old
embellishments and advantages, that the
people would not submit to it, and he was
forced to yield his convictions to public
opinion. We are glad he has done so, but
we fear that submission to public opinion is
not principle with' him. It must be from
interested views for some selfish motive,
because lis the only time he has yielded to
public sentiment, or admitted the principle
of instruction. In voting for the TarilT he
openly defied it. His votes on Abolition
questions are vt constant violation of the
feelings and Wishes of his constituents.
Then how inconsistent to claim instruction!
ging bis vote on the Hankrupt law; and
while he Votes to repeal his own doing, he
still recommends it to an offended con
stituency. Stanly's Abolitionism

ivilege of introducing a petition from ne-

member from North Carolina, Whig or
a .i .i .1.. a ui::
Democrat, and against the entire Southern
delegation, except Botts and one or two'
others.
Is Stanly the only man who understands
our interests and wishes, and all the rest of
the South, Whigs and Democrats, traitors
to it? The people of Virginia have deci-
led the matter as far as' Hotts and Stewart
are concerned, (who Voted with S.anly,)
by turning them out; and it remains to be
seen whether North Carolina is to be hum
bugged by Edward Stanly, and betrayed
into the hands' of Abolitionists and i cen-
liaries.
How does it happen that Stanly, repre
senting a Southern district, is always found
voting on the Abolition question with the
bolilion part ? fie says-he is no Aboli
tionist. He abuses' Abbli!ionits who are
Democrats, but praises them when they
are Whigs, which embraces three-fourths
of them .
His words are nothing without deeds.
and there stand his votes recorded with the.
Abolitionists on all test questions; while
we are embraced with honeyed speech, the
secret weapon is thrust into our vitals;
while we are assured our sentinel is vigi
lant on the watch-tower; we see him in
co stant and intimate intercourse with the
enemy.
If Stanly's votes on Abolition speak the
voice of his constituents,-then are we the
only Abolition district in the whole South
or West. If we are not, why are we not
faithfully represented in Congress likeev-
' cry olhci district in Ihe Stale? We fiudj
their members vti'ing always together ami
alike, arid Stanly alone arrayed against
them.
Stanly's wit.
When charged with voting for the tax or
duty on salt, Mr. Stanly said he did not
know what salt they meant, unless it wa-
some s;dt in Edgecombe he understood
waS worm eaten.

Has Edward Stanly one feeling in com-'j

. n
racya man who ii imbued with5 the deep
est malignity against Pemocrats and demo
cratic principles and whose contempt for
the '-odoriferous Democracy" is as notori
ous as his reputation for chivalry is ex en
sl ve.
Has not Edward Stanly, in violation of
the known wishes'and feelings of his cbn
tituenis, voted for a U. S. Hank an in
stitution which strikes at the very founda
tion of state rights extending its Briarem
arms into every Slate in the Union in
contravention of its authority and laws?
Has" he not voted lor a H mkrupt law
which renders null and void ther contracts
between debtor and creditor, and enables
every rogue in the Union to sponge out his
horns! debts and then laugh his creditor lo
scorn? Has' he' not voted for high tax? s
(in the shape of Tariffs) by which the Sou
thern planter is rendered a mere hewerof
wood and drawer of water" for the North
ern manufacturer?' Has he not voted for a
Distribution of the public lands among the
Slates, thus depriving.! he Government of a
legitimate source of revenue, and creating
the necessity for additional taxation to sup
ply the deficiency?
And lasily, has he not aided and coun'e
nanced the mad-cap Abolitionists in their
assaults against Southern slavery? Repub
licans of Edgecombe, are those your prin
eiples? No! No! is-the responsive echo
from every hones'-l earted Democrat. See
