JV1 AINE ELECTION. .- The success of the Wbigi in Maine is one of the most astonishing results which has ever occurred since our existence as a Nation not astonishing that Whig principles 'should; have gained the as Anncarttm nf Tt&u:Mt. Atxx declared the f other day, in the House of RerJresentativea,that a large portioiof the citizens of the North' would rathier dissolve the JJnion, than; consent to this mea sure. We believe from, what we haveaeen withr' our own ey es. arid heard with 4vct own ears, that this is true. Though we knew" the deepnrooted feel ing which pervaded the Northern States. on the subject of Slavery, we had no idea how universal and rancorous the prejudice was against this Insti tution pf the South, Until the painful truth was forced upon hb, on a recent visit to New, England. It abj sorbs all other party or political distinctions.

It will be seen that our Senators, Messrs. BBOWN and STRANGE, voted in favor of the Government and against the people, for' this is the true issue. The Government has got so embarrass ed, that it needs this .money to carry on its opera lions," and, in order to relieve the Administration, the people are to suffer. Our Senators amongst others, it seems, consider the convenience of the Administration and the office-holders of greater mo ment than the prosperityof the people. If it be really true, as contended, that the Government is too poor to redeem its plighted faith, .why not, instead of repealing an Act which only gives to toe people yohat they are entitled to, repeal those Acts which give away millions of the people's money for extra vagant schemes of fortification, and other works of put character. There are unexpended balances to an enormous amount remaining from the extrava to be drawn upon, before any proposal ia made to violate the plighted faith of the Government, and keep back from the States that which they have exv r -w fndependent of the rank injustice of this measure, there is no calculating the losses which the differ ent States will suffer from not receiving the expect- 4 Instalment. Many ef them have embarked in chemes for improvingthefr' internal condition, on the faith of these instalment!, and will be thrown, as it were, on their beam end, if this iniquitous at tempt to withhold them should succeed.

But' we hope better things of the House of Represents tivea.' " been achieved. But yesterday endTshe was the tery citadel of Van Burenism.! To-day, she has be come? (to use a very elegant phrase of the Admin istration prints) the " hotled of Whiggery" A just estimate may be formed ef the moral influence which Is purging the-land of the dangerous heresies entailed upon it by a popular Administration, when it is recollected that, irr proportion to its population, Maine gave, in November last, the largest Van lht tea. majority of any State' in the Union I With the exception of New Hampshire, this State has, for a number of yearr past; been more thoroughly Administration than any other ! Her Legislators, her Senators and Representatives in Congress, her Governors Ac. have been up-to-the-hub Administra tion men, and nearly every fWhig Office-holder in the Slate has been proscribed for hia opinions. Now a Whig Governor has been chosen by nearly a thousand majority ,v and the Whigs have also the scenda ncy in the S tate Legisl ature. A , thousand guns then,say we. for the noble State. She has 11 11 ' . - m .-" ' . piaeeu nerseii in me tront rantt ot those who are battling in defence of the Constitution and the lib erties of the people. This tremendous route of the Administration forces is attributed entirely to the Loco-foco character ef Mr. Van Buren's late Mes, sage. If hia own.party make such wry faces at it, how can the Whigs be expected to stomach its cru dities. ' '; selves Whigs or Loco?focos they all agree in con demninglavery as a National sin which ought to be extirpated. THE SUB-TREASURY SYSTEM. This audacious stride, on the part of Mr. Vas Bcaix, to uncontrolled power over the money of the country, is warmly applauded and sustained by the " Globy and the other Presses in the interest of Loco-focoistn. Concerning such a system, when proposed by Mr. Gordon, of Virginia, in 1834, as a substitute for the system of deposites in State Banks, the Globe under the date of November 550, 1834, hckl this language : ' ., ' The proposition Is disorganizi ng and revol ution- ary, subversive of the fundamental principles of our Government and of its entire practice from 1789 down to this day. M It is palpable as the fun, that the effect of the scheme willbe to bring the public-treasure much nearer the actual custody and control of the. Presi dent than it iff now, and expose it to be plundered by a hundred hands, where one cannot reach it now.' " Can these objections, these fundamental perileus objections, be now removed! We wait to see how. How things brt going. -Mf Van Burcn has been President ibr about six months. Since that time, elections have taken place in ten States. The Whigs have succeeded in all but three, Mississippi, Alabamwand Michigan. . Moreover, Mr. Van Burer. obtained fhe electoral vote of three of those State by the foUowfhgmajontiesr Majne........v...iv.7,f61 " Rhode Island. . . i .254- a N.

Mr. Van JBuren received 170 electoral votes, including those of Michigan, From the three States named above and which have since declared against him, he received 27. Had these States voted then as now, he would have had but 143 votes and woald nothave been elected President. It is ap parent then thai his Administration is, at this mo ment, in the minority. (Every day lessens the number of its adherents, and enervates its power to do harm. ;The people have indeed awakened to a- sense ot their danger, and in every subsequent battle hut one, have defeated and prostrated their enemies. The day is near at hand-when Mary landers are "to strike for liberty. Let her sons do iustico to her honor, and all will be well. 'Balt. Chronx WHAT WILL CONGRESS BO! We repeat our belief that nothing will be done either now, orat the regular session of Congress, to relieve the people from their embarrassments. Mr. Van Buren's loco feco Scheme cannot; go down, and the friends of the people are not strong enough to carry through any measure that will effectually relieve them. Pa tic nee must be our watchword Two years hence, we can send to Congress a ma jority able to carry out the views of the Whigs, whethe? Mr. Van Baren is willing or not, and unr til then, we despair of better times. THE CONSERVATIVES, . It will be seen from our Congressional diary, that Messrs, Rivra, GABtASD, &c. have taken decided ground against the Sub Treasury 8cheme. Mr. Rives likens it to a grain of mustard seed, which is to spring up and overshadow the land with corrup tion. How can the Administration hope to carry through their plans, when they are so preposterous that even their own party cannot swallow them. It is not an unimportant sign of the times, that the Richmond Enquirer is aso out against the doctrines of h Mgiiift. ' ' : :'' " MILITARY. At a recent Electron for Brigadcr General of the 1 7th Brigade of North Carolina Militia, Col. D. S. Crexsiiaw , of Wake Forest, in this County, was chosen. His opponent was Col. Gosti Pkurt, of Franklin, and the united vote in the Counties, composing the Brigade was as follows: Crenshaw 78-Perry 61. The Superior Court of Law for the coun: ty of Lincoln, closed its term on Saturday last. Of the distinguished Judge who pre sided, we Foel convinced tha t we express a universally entertained opinion, in saying, that he gave entire satisfaction to all par ties. Judge Toomer possesses, in an emi nent degree, those qualities calculated to fit him for the station he occupies-a rea diness in deciding, and a manner --which carries conviction to all, of the justice of his decision. We heard many admire him for the clearness and imparYudity of his charges to the Jury; ahd many praise him for the suavity of his deportment. Lincoln Republican.

A very .fine Steamboat, 130 feet long", by 29 feet beam, was launched on Satur day, the 2d instant, at Baltimore. This boat has been built under live direction of Capt.

Messrs. Cambreleng, Underwood, Daw son, Garland of Va. and Biddle spoke on the sub ject. v Mr. Pickens moved to amend the bill so as to postpone the instalment till the 1st of January 1839, instead of postponing it indefinitely. Without coming to any conclusion, the House adjourned. . - Thursday, September 21.

Many speculations nave- been afloat with regard to the probable course of this gentleman in Congress, at the present Session, and rumor has even gone so far as to charge him with apostacyrfrom principle, and with having united nimself to the Administra tion. Thisf we knew, could not be so, for indepen dent of Mr. Calheun's peculiar position as an op position man, we learn there has not been for years the slightest personal intercourse between Mr. Van Buren and himself. The-extent of Mr. Calhoun's on version, may be gathered from the remarks made by him in the Senate, a few days since, a sketch of which appears in this paper. It-seems mat it has always beeh a favorite project with him to discon nect the Government and the Banks, and he there tore approves so much of the President's;. Message as looks to this issue; And this is thtAvhole foun Nation of the ridiculous story, that; he has become an Administration man ! We know Mr. aJhoon's Reasons for advocating a divoree between the Goy- ernment and the Banks, and believe them to be nn pound and! illusory. Certain h is, whatever course fle may pursue, hS will be unable to carry with him enthe small number in Congress who think with him on most points. Mr. Preston condemns the Message toto cselo, as doeieaTly all of the South .imna uetegation. Our North-Carolina Whig representation is sound to the core. it is amusihg, however, occasionally to watch the current of events.

Bank, in the year 1819, when he decided in the case ofMcCulloch vs. the State of Maryland, that the , Bank or the United States Was Constitutional. Mr. Leigh shews, by the most satisfactory evidencet that the Chief Justice had sold eyery share of UJ 8. stapk he ever owned, before the decision in question ; land that he . assigned as his reason for selling the last five shares, that he-did not choose to remain ia stockholder in the Bank of the U.

The Cotton to be delivered at certain points agreed upon, on the river, whence it is to be shipped by the Banks direct to Europe, and sold for Cash. Thus, it is said, the Planters are to save the expenses of shipment , &c; and the Banks are to obtain the means of replen shing their vaults with Specie. In Mr. Van Buren's recent Message, he expres- ed the opinon, in substance, that the recent Elec tions furnished no test of the popularity of his Ad ministration. If the Maine Eleeton does not force him to abandon this position, neither will he do so. though one should rise from the dead.
