There is no evidences of devotion so unmistakable as the fruits of our doings. We reap of what we sow we gather of the sort we scatter. If we sow wholesome seeds the fruit will be good, but if we sow dissent ion the harvest will be defeat aud disgrace The Ashville News, is not the only paper the Journal will receive the disapproval of, if it continues its present course. Since the above was tn type, we find the following in the Standard of to-day which we cordially endorse: k'-h -We are not surprised at the Herald's ar ticlethat was la have been expected but the Journal, a Democra ic thought proper to insinuate that Oov. tteaa an aspirant for the Senate, and that be Was in fluenced by the idea of political loss and gain in bis course in this matter In other words, nis motives nave oeen impeacnea.

Now.it IswellkhownfthMoilf pdsftten in regard t(TtheSenatorships "is one of Strict We have publisheinothing on the subject, ami taken no part whatever in the discussions relative tneeto; wnien pave been going on, We do to depart now From this position and we should have been silent if the Journal had content, ed itself with a mere declaration of its opposition to Gov. Reidf election a'. Senator. But that paper has coupled the Senator-ship with a reflection upon' his course as a public functionary and has imputed to him motives in the discharge of his official du ties, which we Know to be as untounaeu as they are unworthy and we are" not to be deterred, by any real or supposed connection in the public mind between Gov. Reid and the high place referred to, from defen ding as we would defend any oth-r Democrat, similarly situated, trom wnat we conceive to be unjust and ungenerous im putations.

Gov. Reid is neither a "Know Nothing," nor is he capable of "courting any party or organization in the hope of political pre ferment What proof has the Journal that be is an aspiraut for the Senate I We know him well enough to say, that tie r.as perior-med his duties as Governor with an eye single to his country's good, and without reference to place or reward hereafter and that, so 4ar from "courting the opposing party," he is the advocate now, as he has always been heretofore, oT organization and concentration of strength in his own party, and could not be induced to accept, the Sen- atorship even unless tendered him freely and voluntarily by bis political fiieuds. We do not deem it advisable or necessa ry now to pursue further this strain of re mark but we may remind the Journal that Gov. Reid's administration has never recei ved entire justice at its hands, 'hat paper may have a right, even as a Democratic journal, to maintain silence when a Demo cratic Governor ts unjustly assailed Whig press, or it may refuse, if it chooses to do so now and then, to give such a statement of facts as may be necessary to the vindication of the functionary referred to; but when, it becomes itself an assailant, though by indirection, and. indulges in insinuations not sustained by facts, nor by any just or fair construction of the conduct of such functionary, it, must not expect to avoid such reply and comments as the occasion as lbs cause of truth may seem to require.

i TUE BLACK SWAN MISS GREENFIELD. Nothing-has been heard of Ihis nbtable of wool and tallow until reeehtly, when she was announced for a series of concerts in Boston. By way of drawing a crowd, a la Jenny Lind and Grisi, the Boston papers give ibis bit of her biography: i The remarkable and accomplished artist whose name stands at the head of this article, was born a slave at Natchez, Mississippi, in the year 1823 but under circumstance more favorable than often attends the lot of servitude. Her mother was of Indian descen', her father an African. Her mistress, Elizabeth Greenfield, whose name she bears, was Welch by birth, and in religious profession a member of the Society of Friends.

Having come into possession of the family property, this energetic woman formed the reso lution of emancipating her slaves and sending them to Liberia, the settlement of wbich had, then just commenced. his she did, herself accompanying them, seeing them comfortably established, and sending out to them, after her return to Philadelphia. where she herself settled, abundant sup plies Miss Greenfield 'a mother and two sisters were among these emigrants, and are still living comfortably in Liberia. Miss Green field herself being only a year old and having been named lor ner mistress, re mained with her, and was brought up in her family at Philadelphia; She received only a very plain education, according to Quaker ideas, and was not taugnt or even suffered, to learn music at an, mat oeing a thinjr not approved by Friends. At the acre of abou: twenty-one, having lost ber adopted mother, who made a moderate provision for her bv will, she then under took the superintendence of a gentleman's family, a neighbor anu old acquaintance of Mrs.

Greenfield's and from his pldest daughter she learnt to play the piano, and acquired some knowledge of music, of wbich she became a teacher. Two or three years ago she was induced by some ladies, whom she met while on a visit, to Western New. York, to given concert in Buffalo. 1 bis proved very successful, and after an equally successful tour through most of our Northern cities, she embarked for Europe. There she was every where a receivea wittr great kindness, and has en joyed and improved many opportunities of musical cultivation.

Soathwonb, rnld 4 s.i-I kr OW.T. T.MVMS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1854. From tkt Metropolitan. The MRimihituti In tTIImlnston. We stated in ojir last article upon the object of the election in NewHanorer, that without union' in the Democratic party, the Defeat bf Dr.

Walker was inevitable. We stated that a-candidate would be sprang upooibe very eve of the election and without thia union be would certainly be elected. We did not say, though we did fear, that candidate would be a whig. The result has demonstrated the accuracy of our views. Dugald McMillan an unexceptionable democrat, announced as a can-ydidate on the very day of the datum, as been carried into place with as large a jority as the whole vote oj his opponent amounts to.

We told them it would be so, and we rejoice, as it is so, a democrat has succeeded, and Jy democratic votes, for Mr. McMillan obtained a majority at every pre- cinct, save two or three in the whole coun-; and does not owe his election to the vhigttf Wilmington. At South Washington one of the stron-; gest democratic precincts, we learn, where the Hon. Mr. Ashe, who had received a-gainst Mr.

Leak' 12 voles at that point, 90 votes, and who openly electioneered for Dr. Walker, the vote stood, McMillan 49, Walker 14. At this precinct, also, a letter, as we understand, was read from one' Daniel Dickson, Post Master at Wilmington, (formerly a whig) informing the people, that "McMillan was brought out by whig influences, and would not receive. SO votes in Wilmington, from the democratic party," and yet, wiih all the influence of himself and Mr. Ashe combined, theregulxr candidate, a personally popular man, could receive only 14 of the 63 votes, Cast at that precinct, while in the county the result has been equally disastrous, and mortifying, ,1 There is something in all this, which needs explanation and we shall give it, and we shall speak with the more freedom, because we advocated the election of Dr.

Walker and are sorry to see that he, being the proper and regular candidate, failed to be supported by the masses of the party. We ascribe all this, to the mismanagement, folly and errors of the Wilmington Journal, and the little "clique of office holders and office seekers by which it is sustained, controlled and supported. They have oj the cr.nfidenu of the democratic party in New Hanover, and elsewhere and the sooner they know, it, and all know it, the The election is over now, and we can speak freely of them. We charge then, the Wilmington Journal with the whole misfortune and scandal of this result. That paper is conducted by a ridiculous, conceited and ill-natured person, who imagines himself and bis little caucusses, his friends and his individual animosities of much more consequence than the Interest of the party.

This weakness of his, subjected the very respectable and popular gentleman whom he supported, to the mortification of a defeat end the desertion of his party friends. There is nothing like a little plain talking. is the same paper which, it will be remembered, also, a few months ago, charged home upon Mr. Clingman, to rtie great satisfaction of the entire whig press of the State, and the great embarrassment and amazement of the democratic party; This is the paper which has dared to assault even Gov. Reid the favorite of the entire North Carolina democracy, for remo-vuig Mr.

Bettencourt, the head of the little "clique" of office holders of which we have already spoken, and which has just been crushed by the vole of the democratic people of New Hanover, and has not only refused to sustain our Governor when attacked by wbigs, but has actually attempted by all its little arts to array prejudice in the Cape Fear country, against him, a man, actually caused the 8500,000 appropriation to be made for that river, for we assert, that if Guv. Reid had not presided at that Convention that appro priation would have been asked in vain This is the same paper which has ventured lately to attack the "Metropolitan" and af terwards insolently quoted from its columns without giving- due credit, and this is the paper which ventured to rebuke with all the arrogance and dictation which led to its defeat of Dr. Walker number of democratic citizens as Ramshackles," who chose to support the successful candidate. If the Editor were a native of the Slate, it would be insupportable; it can only betol-eralcdf under the supposition that as a foreigner and a stranger to the South, he did no know any better. We excuse him pon thU ground.

WeveU-him responsible, -however, for the result and this miscarriage of the regular the party. Hereafter, it will be safe to that the opposition of the Journal to any democrat or democratic paper, will be the best evidence of bis or its orthodoxy, for its Editor is shrewdly suspected of an intent to pave the way for whig ascendancy in that county which we hope will never, occur. We again ask if he intends to support the nominees of the party for Senators, and if he still refuses to answer, we shall be constrained to warn all true Democrats against this 'wolf in sheep's clothing this disorganizing print, which has acluallyd one more for the success of the whig party and Its increase in New Hanover and the district than any of-its open partizans. We shall send this paper to a number of our mends in New Hanover. We ask them to notice the reply of the Journal, and recollect the reason for our forbearance till now, to answer the vile and ungenerous as saults upon us, and upon Lov.
