Sir: In addressing you through the public
press. it is our object to make an appeal to your
patriotism, that you may at least for while,
give up the enjoyment of private life. to unfurl
the broad banner of Democracy to the breeze
Do you think we ask too much at your hands
when we urge you to become candidate for the
Legislature2 Consider for moment the posi-
ton of our party in Person at this time. Have we
not three or four men who are so eager to become
candidates for the House of Commons, that they
will risk the success of our cause, soonerthan cede
their claims to each And yet, they are willing
to withdraw their names if you will consent to be-
come candidate. With you az our candidate,
VIC are certain of success. Then, may we not
entreat you to forego, forthe present. the joys of
private life, and consent to serve the people of
Person in the next General Assembly, 1t re-
mains with you to say whether the call is made
in vain.

Celebration of the 2OM of MAJ.

According to previous arrangement, the citi-
zens of Mecklenburg and the'adjoining counties
celebrated the 10th of May, the 69th Anniversary
of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence,
in a most becoming and patriotic manner The
Jeffersonian says: L" The proceedings at the stand
were opened with an appropriate prayer from the
Rev MIR. Freeman. The Mecklenburg Declara-
ton of independence was then read by VIM. K
Myers, Esq, who prefaced its reading with few
tastefully arranged and appropriate remarks. AT
ter which, the orator of the day, Jas. w. Osborne,
ESQ, delivered an address of about half an hour
in length, of which, to say it was eloquent and
soul-stirring, be6tting the great occasion, would
be but meeting the public expectation. Though
made after hasty preparation, it was an effort
worthy any cause, and creditable to the high repu-
tation which the orator enjoys. He was frequent
ly interrupted by the rapturous applause of his
auditory At the conclusion of Mr.. Osborne's
oration, the 'Old North State,' Qhe lines penned
by the late Judge Gaston,) was sung in most beau
tifuI and charming strains by a choir Of young
ladies present, assisted by the gentlemen who
Joined in the chorus"
At three o'clock large number of persons sat
down to dinner, presided over by Col. William J.
Alexander, as President of the day, and Gen. w.
G. Meares, Maj II. s. Young and Dr. Cyrus

Mecklenburg, H. G. Jones, Esq. of Rowan, Col.
Ephraim Brevard, Of Lincoln, Gen. J. M. Wad-
dill, of Anson, Amos Stephens, Esq of Union,
and Col. Thomas L. Grier, of Meckenburg, as
Vice Presidents. A number oftoasts and patriotic
speeches were delivered, and we regret we have
not room to transfer more of the proceedings TO
