Resolved, That the issuing of Treasury Notes for the immediate temporary relief of the Treasury Department is but another mode in disguise, for creating a national debt, which, if persisted in, will soon fix upon the Government a heavier burthen than the debt of the Revolutionary War. Resolved, That the practice of the heads of Departments at Washington City, acting immediately uuder the eye. of the in chargifig to the Government, the hire and boarding of servants and hoises hire of Hacks, washing of towels, Dinner for Clerks at Taverns, $-c.

is unwarranted by precedent, unauthorized by kw, and merits the severest disapprobation of tbfe People. Resolved, Thdt the People have a right to expect that candidates for high political can only be attained by their suffrages, will frankly and freely make known their sentiments on all prominent topics without disguise or disingenuousness, and that he who fails or refusp to do so, is unworthy of the People's confidence or Resolved, That the unsullied character and exalted ability of HENRY CLAY, of Kentucky, together with his long and faithful services in his country's cause, pre-eminently designate him as the most suitable persorTfor the next!

jl Resolved, That in a Republican; Government; it is the. duty of the people to exercise a vigilant jealousy in regard to public measures, and to rebuke in the determined languago of patriotism, the abus es or corruptions of their rulers. Resolved, That this mcetmgr most solemnly protest against the passage of the Bill in any shape, because it would create a distinction between the people and the officeholders, making a better currency for the latter than the fotmer; because it would separate the Government from the People, and tend to alienate their affections, and because we believe it would be calculated to prostrate our State Institutions, and tend to consolidations and because the late defalcations prove the utter iffipoliry of the scheme. 1 'Resolved, As the settled conviction of this meet ing, that it is the duty of the National Government lojyirrHsnjine reopie wnn a souru co-extene jh.rediwith lhe limits pit this great nation. i Resolved, That when the EuropeaiiGovemments are appfayding burs as fast approaching to the prime principle of is high time for all true Republicans tovawake from their slumbers, and examine carefully the.ground which they occupy.

Besolveig, That the late, developements of corruption andmisrdle, call aloud for redress, which in our opibioo oanr nly -oe effected by a change of men and measures, RetsTY we believe this Govern framed for the benefit of the -people; am ment was and not for the benefit of the officeholders, as virtually contended fotby those in power. Resolved, That we protest aganist the doctrine advocated by the supporters of Van Buren, that every man has a right to construe the Constitution, as he pleases, regardless- of the opinion of those that formed it, and the legal tribunals of the country. Resolved, That the long tried honesty, wisdom and integrity of Henry Clay, of Kentucky, entitle him to the confidence and hearty support of all the Whigs or true Republicans of the Union. Resolved, That we approve of the independent and dignified course pursued by the Hon. Lewis Williams, ourjate Representative in Congress, and that we will accord to him our hearty support at the ensuing election.

Resolve d. That the Chairman of this meeting appoint nine delegates to- attend the Whig Convention in Raleigh, for the purpose of selecting delegates to a National Convention, to nominate a candidate for the Presidency. Pursuant to this last Resolution, the Chairman appointed the following person? as delegates to wit, Maj. Rufus Reed, George F. Davidson, Joseph Chambers, P.

Houston, Joseph Davidson, Joseph P. Caldwell, Joel A. Hujrgins, John A Young. On motion of J. P.

The annexed account of a dreadful affray in Woodrille, vv iiKinson couniy, Mississippi, is from the Natchez Courier of the 20th May. It seems that a short time preyipu to the recent Session of the Grand Jury of that County, a ncbal-Jengeww passed end a duel wu fcawr been fought between Mr. Leigh, a son of Watkins Leigh of Virginia, and Mr.

W- Norris, Editor of the Republican, but- it was arranged by the friends of the parties. When the Grand Jury convened, the foreman, in accordance with his oath; took an active part in endeavoring to investigate the matter, and bringing the parties concerned inland cognizant of the matter before them. They all refused to testify, and were all consequently committed to prison. Sometime after th'w, the foreman, Mr. A.

J. Foster, happened irt Mr. Leigh's office, and inquired for soma person, when Mr. Leigh called him an in- icwmer ana usea outer aousive language 10 mm A challenge ensued and a duel was to have been fought between which was set for some few days subsequent A day or so after the quarrel, Mr. Leigh met Mr.

0. Foster, a younger brother of A. J. Foster in the street and asked him who he was looking at so hard! Mr.l replied tnat he nad a right to look as he pleased, without being questioned some other words of an insulting character were useJ, and a 'general quarrel and fight ensued, commencing between Mr. C.

Foster, Dr. Moresc and the friends of each, among whom were Mr. Leigh, Mr. Fielding Davis, Judge Smith, and one or two others; immediately after which Mr. Leigh, who had received some personal injuiy from Mr.

Davis, sent him a challenge by Mr. H. A. Moore and to which Mr. Hoore requested an immediate answer.

Mr. D. replied he would answer it in the morning, Mr. Moore then used some shash language to Mr. D.

called 6t insinufated that he was a coward, upon which Mr. D. turned and struck Mr; Moore with a whip he in bis hand, and injured. him very severely in the. face.

Mr. D. then went home and changed' his dress which ad beehsoiled in the afffayftrd walk- i ed in to the post office Mr. Leigh walkfC-in' immediately afterwards with a drawn knife ortiirk in his Mr. saw him as he advanced and told him not to approach him.

Mr. L. continued to do so. Mr. P.

repeated his warning, faptl told; him if be did so, that he would ahoet him, and seeing that Mr. Leigh did not stop, he, raised a double barrelled gun which he had in his band and snapped both barrels at him, neither of which went off. He then struck, him. with the end of the gun and. knocked him down and then retreated across the street.

Mr. Leigh after rising continued to advance, when Mr. Davis drew a pistol and shot Mr. Leigh in the side, which penetrated his spine. Leigh, at.

ter lingering near two days died, of the Davis was immediately arrested, and alter, an ex- i i i e- nunan was; admitted to bad in the sffm of a. very, great excitement prevaneu at "Wood? ille, at the last dates, and it was believed that other acts of outrage and blood--shed would grow out of the affair.

A large number of Political Meetings have recently been held in this State, by those desirous of a change in the Administration oi our uovernmeni, me aeiaus oi wnicn wouia, li pumisnea, exciuue every uimg else Irom our columns. It is due, however, to the cause of the people, that the principal features of each meeting should be recorded, and we shall content ourselves with this, if there be nothing to render a more extended notice necessary and proper.

At a meeting in Salisbury, at which Col. Macnamara presided, the following Resolu tions, among others, were adopted Resolved, That we will not support any man as a candidate for the next Congress, who is in favor of the Sub-Treasury, or in favor of MarUji Van Bu-ren as our next President. Resolved, That HENRY CLAY, of Kentucky, is our first choice for the next Presidency of the United States. Resolved, That we frill support no man for Congress, any public trust, who is not directly and avowedly a Whig in principle, sentiment and practice. Davie County.

At a meeting held on the 28th ult. Dr. James F. Martin in the Chair, the following Resolutions, introduced by Gen. Cooke, were unanimously adopted Resolved, That a crisis has arrived in the political affairs of this Country, -well calculated to excite apprehension and alarm far the bosom of the Patriot and lover of Liberty, for the permanence and prosperity of our free Institutions.

Resolved, That in such a crisis, it is and duty of the People from whom all power ennu nates, for whose benefit all power is exercised, to make known their opinions to their rulers, in tan-, guage respectful but plain and unequivocal. Resolved, That in the exercise of this fundamental and inestimable right, we condemn in the most decided and positive manner, the financial scheme of the party now in power, because its necessary consequences are corruption, peculation and "defalcations ii the collectors and disburs-ers of the Revenue, immense losses to the Government which must be made up by taxing the People, and alarming and dangerous increase of Executive Patronage; an odious distinction between the currency of Office holders and the great body of the People, and a violation of the great Principles and safe guard of civil liberty, and the separation of the Puise and the Sword. Resolved, That it is the duty of Congress to pass suck laws as may le necessary fbr supplying the counlry a uniform and wholesome circulating medium, and that a good currency for the Officers of the Government, and a bad currency fur the People, is a distinction which American Freemen ought not, and will not submit to. Resolved, That as citizens ef one of the old States, we view" the settled purpose of the party in power to relinquish the Public Domain, or to reduce the price thereof, as a gross infraction of our rights, and a violation of the national faith. Resolved, That the.

withholding the fourth instalment of the Public Deposites, is attributable alone to the folly and extravagance of the present Administration that the expenditures of the Government have increased to an alarming extent, within the last tear years, to wit, from 13 millions to .39 millions of annually. Resehed, That the practice of levying Taxes of Federal officers in proportion to their salaries, to be expended on electioneering objects, iscontrarv to theVpirit of Republicanism, and if oot arrested will ultimately- destroy pur free Institution; Resolved, That the enormous defalcations of Swartwout, Price, Harris, Beyd, Hawkins Smith, Dameron, and a host of others, is the natural con- sequence of the 8ub-Treasury scheme and of the rewarding of unprincipled party zeal by the bestowal of office. the President of the United States iechargeable with gross neglect in not sooner dif- the fFilmin glonextended )7)imerc We are happy to find that the commercial sphere of Wilmington continues to become larger and larsrer as the Railroad becomes more known among our distant acquaintan-1 ces.

In the Mountain District, James Graha (Whig) has no opposition, for the Sims' remark will apply-to the Surry Distric represented by that sterling- Whigr Williams. In the Mecklenburg District, Mr. Connor (Van) is opposed by Gen. B.

M. Ednev (Whig). The chances, we sliould th'ui are decidedly in favor of Mr. 0. I In the Salisbury District, represented by Mr, Rencher, the Candidates are CharUj I Fisher and Pleasant Henderson.

The ht. ter is the regular Whig Candidate, though we have no doubt Mr. F. willi-eeeive mam Whig votes, having acted with that partv until the new Finance questidn sprung up, and being with them, even now, so far as we have any certain knowledge.

In the Warren District, Gen. Hawkins is opposed by Mr, Hilliard, both Administration men. The chances are in favor of the General, decidedly. Injhe Halifax District, Mr. Bynum (V an) ig opposed by Col.

Lon Whig,) and with every prospect of success. The difference between them at the last Election was only about 70 votes. In the Edenton District, Maj. Sawyer, who was elected a Whig but became a Sub-Treasury man, is opposed by Kenneth Ray-ner the talented young Whig who has so distinguished himself our State Legislature. All accounts from that quarter represent Rayner's election a certain: In the Nawbern District, Charles Shepard, also elected Whig bu converted the beauties of Van Burenism, is opposed by Col.

Biddie (Whig). The last New-bern Spectator" asserts confidently, that Biddie will be elected In the Wilmington District, Gen. McKay (VT has no opposition' as yet. In the Fayetteville District, Edmund De-berry (Whig) is opposed by William A. Morris (Van.) We consider Mr.

Deberry's election certain. In the Tarboro Edward Stanly (Whig) is opposed by Dr. Hall (V. and we have heard no one yet, hardy enough to question the triumphant re-election of the former. So that the Whigs have a fair chance of carrying ten out of thirteen Districts.

HILLSBORO convention. A Convention of Whig Delegates assembled at Hillsboro' on Friday last, for the purpose of nominating a Candidate to be run in this District, in opposition to Doctor Montgomery. GEO. W. HAYWOOD, Esq.

of this City, was unanimously selected, and it will be seen from the' subjoined Correspondence, that he iaccepts the nomination. It is with both pride and pleasure, that we announce this we know, if elected, he will do honor to his native district, and we confident his fellow-citizens of Wake will be gratified at the opportunity of showing in what high estimation they hold him. Mr. Haywood will prosecute the canvas with energy and industry, and will certainly be elected, if indefatigable zeal to support the true interests of the country, and, a just construction of our National policy entitle a candidate to success. We shall publish the proceedings of the Convention when they come to hand, and cannot forbear the remark, that we have rarely before witnessed such a degree of en thusiastic feeling as was displayed by that body.

Whigs of Orange are of the right stamp, and set an example of zeal and industry worthy of imitation. Tis not in mortals to command success," but they certainly deserve it. SIRiV In pursuance of previous notice, a Convention of Whig Delegates for the several Counties of this Congressional District, met this day for the purpose of selecting some individual whose name they might present as a candidate for Congress. The undersigned were appointed a Committee to announce to you, your selection, by the unanimous voice of the-Convention, and they flatter themselves, that called by the unsolicited confidence of your Fellow Citizens to battle for good principles, at so momentous a crisis, as the present, you will yield to their wishes.

I have received your letter of the 31st ultimo, in which the unexpected information is contained, that I have been nominated as a candidate for a seat in the next Congress of the United States, by the unanimous voice of the Whig Delegates, assembled in Convention in the Town of Hillsborough, far the purpose of selecting some individual, whose name they might present as a candidate for Con in the District composed of the counties of OftAWGE, Persov and Wakj. Being thus solicited to become a candidate, and professing to be a Republican in principle and action, I am not able to discover or assign, any good sd sufficient, reasons foe refusing to comply with the wishes of my friends-r-because believe that the Country which gave us birth has a right to demand our services, and upon most occasions they ought not to be withheld, although a compliance with her demands may cause a temporary sacrifice of the in terest of the individual called upon to serve her; and I further believe that a nomination of the kind men tioned in your letters neither to be soughjt for hor declined and all of you are well aware tht it was not desired by me. Influenced by' the above considerations, I take pleasure in requesting you to in form the members of the Convention that I yield to their request and you fire authorized to announce me to my Fellow-Citizens of the District as a can didate for Congress. I deem it unnecessary at this time, to enter into a full explanation as to my sen timents in regard to the political topics which now agitate the public mind because my opinions as to public measures and men shall be frankly made known to the people of the District, at their different public gathering; without concealment upon any subject.

riShtinife possess? Jewbern spectator. in Mississippi seem to have come to an awful crisis. The ma jesty of the law is openly trampled upon; courts ol justice aflord no protection from outrage, and even murder. In fact, there is no law but mob law, and no right but that of the mightiest. It would appear as if the whole system of law had been overturned, and society had resolved itself into its original elements, leaving mankind in a stale of nature.

These convictions are forced upon us by accounts published in the papers ot tnat otate. We read in one of a murder committed in a court of justice, in the presence of the judge and jury, upon an individual in the custody of the law a crime, we venture to say, that is unparalled in the records of human atrocity. In another gazette we read of the Governor of the State being spit upon; in another, of the circuit judge of the United States havmgiibse pulled by an officer of his own court, and on its very threshold. To this list other outrages might be added too numerous to mention. 'N.
