with which the Executive of the State is invested to fill

If election had taken place. the vacancy would have

it read however than Mr. Edwards, "a Van Buren Lo-
Knocked it in the head by the very correct that

In the first place Mr. Edodrds did not speak at all on
the subject. In the second place Mr.. Shepard is not

HOW VERY KIND.

The Register of the 23d has great deal of rgmarele
stuff about the senatorial Elcction part (which only
we feel inclined to notice. It shows sort of ambdex
ter kindness worthy of the whggery The editor says
ssOn this occasion, the Wings with the exception of
some ten or twelve supported Judge SAUNDERS They
did So because ofhs ablty-because he had been badly
treated by his party-because they felt indignant
that our State Election should be directed and controlled
by influences from abroad-and because they felt an in
vncible repugnance to again investing with power,
man who to propitiate triumphant power by an act OF
serpe adulaon assisted January 1885, to deface the
Journals of the of the United States, and to vfe-
late the Constitution of the country?'
Now was it not very kind of the Registers friends to
take the part of Gen. Saunders, because he had been
6adiy treued! And who has treated that gentle
man worse than has the Register? We guess Gen Sam
ders will lite about the other sentiment
from that quarter The Register also would crafty par
tizan revenge against Gen Jackson under Of the
Constitution which he processes think Mr. Broson vi
olated in voting for the expungng Resolutions. These,
as we learn from the Register furnish the ground for
s.whg" kindness toward Gen. Saunders. They are ab-
surd throughout, and all pretence, and nothing
else
But letter writer from Raleigh in the Observer. tells
very different tale:
sBut it is sufficient reason to influence the Whigs,
since they elect their own man. that by electng
Saunders they defeat the Caucus nomination of the Lo-
cos and ALLEVIATE and distract the two actons for the bal
