(Remainder in our next.) SATURDAY, JULY 15. ISM. FOR CONGRESS, A. II. AltKIA tiTO:. 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 peueu u no.n r .t ii i : a ... i : ..rr, l io us n. c.iuse r e n not mi ..... mi.- (. - tion of his constituents, vith any Circular or account ol" his public trans id ions. The ropv we have was l.itt ly .-ent by a friend from below. Mr. Stanlv conimet-res by laying ?hat hitherto at t!ie end of each Congress I have had pp irtunilies h petxmal inter course ot giving an account ol what ha been dnnt." Now what "personal in'f r'ourse' his Mr. Stanly ever had with his conMiluents? Though piofcsing to be our Representa tive, his "per.-onal intt rcouise" with this portion ol his constituents has been none at all; neither s; eking or desiiing any 'in tercourse personal," or oihervise, excpt 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 onlv officer be could proscribe. And that, so far from representing his constituents, ....... .. I .. . .!',,. i I.. iK.C n tfi mailt- in i ri u i m it '.i 1 y 1 1 nnn an structions. Hisown political friends, who crew, against the vote of every Southern , ou m.,y L, t no,hillJJ ,e,er yot from. ventured to interpose in the matter, were man, Whig or Democrat. Was Mr. Stan-1 the exercise of your rights at the ballot treated worse; for they were cheated into(ly right and all the rest of the South and a box give one day to y -ur country. Call a belitf that he xvould nsoect their wishes, h'rge portion of the North and Wetiuut 'our ' ighbors. Inspire the active then dispnstd of with the coolest contempt With thi specimen of his ideas of repie sentation, or his "nersonal int-.i course," . we ought lo be thankful we had no more : of it. He claims He.ufori as his ,f sidence, yet c . . r r . - . I for the la-t four ears fv hs not spent six 1 months in the dittict. Hut we hear from the papeis of his gtcat "peisonal i n t er eoorse" with the North and Eas'; seeking) their favor and studyi-ng their interest, as j 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 i fiiur lVr Annrnt'tAn r C l-t A Kn i I' K, , ..I Km n , . , "B "i1"1""' " ' " since, deeds ol trust were made and can be made. It did not and could not. prevent a conveyance by trust, to secure favorite cretliiors or Tavorite kinsmen. Then wh seej( t0 recommend it with statements and 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 When John Quincy Adams claimed the ivilege of introducing a petition from ne- . . i privilege ot introducing a petition from ne- grocs, on the question of order, Mr. Stan- vnld with A'l-irriQ imt hi a ilirilll'mn . . ...... ........... ..i uui iun . r()0,r " 1 During the three !aM sessions of Con-1 gi ess, jonn vuincy Adams attempted at! various times and in various ways to repeal itheSIst Kule ot the tlouse, which forbids power is vesieu in ano uenveii irom me the reception of Abolition petitions; and'leoPle only" that you are the -conquer- 1 r a i Ci 1 ,. we always lmd' Mr. Stanly voting with - J i uuiiis auu ine n uuiiiiuuisis, aganisi every 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.
