DEMOCRATS OF THE EAST,

Your candidate for Governor is performing his
duty manfully and nobly in the West-perform yours
between this and the election, and, above a the
day of election. Poll every vote. Talk to the peo-
ple-reasOn with them-rouse them up, and go with
them to the polls. Do your whole duty-put forth
all your efforts, and Charles Manly, the opponent
and denouncer of his country's war, and the enemy
of Equal Suffrage, must and will be defeated.
Free men of the Eastl laboring men of the West
if you want a man for Governor who has been Re-
publican all his lfe-who has heretofore served the
people in various capacities and never betrayed
deceived them, and who is in favor of his counry's
war and of equality in political rights among fret
arhite npen,-vote' for DAVID S. REID; but if you
want a who fears to commit power to the peo-
ple's hands-who has never held Office at the hands
of the people-who was Federalist during the last
war, and opposed, as we have been informed, thai
war as he denounces this, and who is linked, heart
and soul, with the Federal leaders about Raleigh,
who have 80 long misgoverned North Carolina and
mismanaged her affairs-vote for Charles Manly.
Choose ye between Republican devoted to your
rights and the defender of his countrys honor, and
Federast, who not only gives evidence that he doubts
your capacity for sefgovernment, but, by his argu-
ments, puts Mexico in the righ and his country
in the wrong! ...+

GEN. TAYLoR-TH1Nes ANA FIX"

Our distinguished 7fellow-citizen arrived in town
yesterday, and Is now staying at the st. Charles
Hotel. we learn that he has not yet received Off
claL information OF his nomination by the Phlade-
Phla w hig Convention. resolution was passed by
that body, at the close of its sittngs directing the
Chairman to write to Gen. Taylor forthwith, to ap-
prise him of tha result of their deliberations and au.
thorizing him 70 publish the correspondence, as
as the Generals letter in reply was received.
We copy the above from the New Orleans Com
mercial Times of the list of July. The Delta and
the Bulletin of the date contain similar articles
Gov. Morehead, it .is said, wrote to Gen. Taylor
from Philadelphia, informing him of his nomination.
If this be the letter have been lost for
ly it could have gone from Philadelphia to Baton
Rouge in less than twenty days. The probability
now is, that the public will be in possession of
Gen. Taylor's letter of acceptance until about the
st OF September, as Gov. Morehead lives in the in
terror of this State and it will take at least ten days
for letter from him to reach Gen. Taylor.
In the meantime, if Gen. Taylor accepts the nomi-
nation, will he not be the Whig candidate! We
should think So And if SO, will he violate his
iemn declarations On the subject, repeatedly made
unquestionably. He has said he would not be the
candidate OF any party, nor yield himself to party
schemes; and by accepting Whig nomination he
surrenders at his independence and his posi-
ton neutral.
AS things now stand the Feds are decidedly d" in a
hx "--as Gov. Morehead would say. Col. Winthrop
and Mr.. Wilder, Of New Orleans-both gentlemen
of character-have declared to the public that they
heard Gen. Taylor condemn the action OF the Louis
lana delegation in the Philadelphia Convention, and
assert that they had no power from him to submit
his name to that body and the other hand, Mr..
Baie Peyton and others, Gen. Taylors friends, have
published card, said to have been written by the
old General HIMSELF in which he is made to approve,
in the fullest and most unqualified manner, the ac-
ton of said delegation in reference to his position
and intentions! There is screw loose sonpeiDhere.
Was there ever such party!

T. OXFORD, N. c., July 5th, 1913.

Mr.. HoLDEN:,I was sincerely gratifed in witness
ing tile great administrations of joy in the proceed
ngs of yestefdayih little village. Within few
years all those feelings of the heart which bear such
strong affinity topatriotsm, seemed to have lain DOR
mant in the besoms of our good citizens, and many
who were wopt to rejoice at the recollection of the
sou-stirrin events of of Independence, sud-
denly ceased, and being unsatis6ed in condemnng g
such annual commemorations that of 4th of July,
they aspersed those who did it but this unkind
feeling has died away, and yesterday, the 72d ami
versary of our Independence. was celebrated In
manner fully worthy of the occasion. Firing OF guns
playing of music, Bringing of bells, &c., marked the
opening of hisgforious day, and every countenance
was radiant with anticipated pleasure
At 10 o'clock. the newly erected Baptist Church,
(Which, by the way, is one of the handsomest In
the State) was crowded with anxious spectators, and
its hall continually reverberated with the dulcit strains
and charming symphonies, manufactured for the oc-
casion, by Professor Hargrave's band The orator
of the day was William r. Wiggins, Esq,a young
man fresh from College. Public expectation had
been awakened, and it was than gratifed. 1t
has seldom beeRuour good fortune to enjoy such an
intellectual FEAST to feel ourselves borne COM
pletey away by the wings of fancy and the eoquence
of truth: Every Rne Listened with the creates! ayldy

Yaed, their sympathies aroused their feelings pleas
ed and their imaginatons stretched to their utmost
tension by thEeoquence Of his appeals, the spien-
dor of his flights and the elegance of his diction.
He closed his remarks amid bursts of applause, and
the good deeds" done that occasion will long be
remembered byzthese who heard him. = 49,.
After the exercises at the church, large portion
of the crowd assembled at the capacious dining room
of Col. Wesley. w. Y Yonng-;who by the by is one
of the most popular and accommodating of hosts
where of the most elegant dinners We have ever
seen was prepared. The richest vands and choicest
wines were profusely scattered the table, and
under their genial influence many elicitous remark
and humorous joke made, and happy toast was
drunk. The day closed as it had begun, amid de-
monstrations Joy, bringing happiness to those who
had participatedia its pleasures. -s,s *.

CONGRESS-THE TREATY.

On the 5th instant, the President sent to the two
Houses the ratified Treaty between this country and
Mexico and he has issued his Proclamation announc-
ing that peace has been restored. The Treaty was
ratified by the Mexican Congress, as it passed the
American Senate, without any material alterations,
Enough territory has been acquired to make ten
States as large as North Carolina the national hon
or has been vindicated, and impershable glory has
been shed upon our arms and President Polk will
give place to his democratic successor, after having
produced grander and nober results for his country
and for posery, than even his most sanguine friends
anticipated when he was inducted into Office. Most
faithfully most honestly, and most glorousy has he
performed in all respects, his duty as Chief Magis-
trate of the American people; and history will say
so. whatever his enemies, the Mexican Wings, may
say to the contrary. ~.
Congress will no doubt be engaged. from this time
until the adjournment in passing snch laws as the
territory just acquired may require, and in making
appropriations to give effect to the Treaty. That
body will ADJOURN it is thought, about the first Of
August. . '.--t -. +-.'.
The Treaty of Peace, together with the message
of the President transmitting it to Congress, shall
appear in our next. .E..sr

WHO is M1LLARD FILLMORE,

The Washington correspondent of the New York
Evening Post, noticing the declination of Col. Dodge
of Wisconsin, says: ....
/" Let now Mr.. Fillmore, the candidate on the
Taylor ticket, be nominated. think can safely
sag that Mr.. Fillmore is sincerely, e,1thusiasculy
farOr Of the principle Of the WihlOt PrOviso. Upon
the most prominent of the other controverted ques-
tons, he is probably decidedly with the wings
mean the tariff question. If elected, he viii be
President of the Senate, which is now SO strongly
democratic that it is not probable that the presiding
officer WILL during the next Presidential term have
occasion to vote on any important question. Ought
not therefore, the opportunity be improved to extend
the platform of free principles, far that will
be afforded for all those wings who agree with the
radical democrats on the question at issuel l
throw out the suggestion for the consideration of the
convention, to meet at Buffalo within few days.
Mr. Miles has earned the right to be placed on this
ticket better than any man know, and if expedien-
cy did not rather point to Mr.. Fillmore, he certainly
should receive the offer declined by Col. DODGE
We see it stated that the Wings of Galveston,
Texas, hesiating about supporting Mr. Fillmore;
the Southern Patriot, Whg paper, refuses to raise
his name; and Mr.. Belser, of Alabama, one of the
original Taylor men, refuses to support him. Mr..
Belser served in Congress with Mr.. Fillmore, and
has therefore good to knO,v that he is unsound
upon the question of slavery. :. ..-.. 49,.
Remember! Taylor men of North Carolina, that
if you vote for Gen. Taylor you vote also for Milard
Fillmore, who is not only Wilmot Provisoist, but
who in 1885 advocated the abolition of slavery in
the District of Columbia. You cannot divide your
vote-you must go for Taylor and Fillmore, or not
for Taylor at all. What will you do!
Again. There are, at this time, fifteen slavehold-
ing and fifteen free States. Suppose geographical
party should be formed-and thesgns look that way,
as you all know-and the Senate should be divided
on the Wlmot Proviso, thirty for and thirty against
it-how would Fillmore vote! Would he not, as
Vice President cast his vote against you? We be-
seech you, as you value your dearest rights, to pom
der on these things. .-

THE VAGRANT LAW.

The Register chuckes over the fact that Mr..
Manly has attacked COL Reid account of his vote,
in 1910, in relation to the Vagrant Law of this
State. This law was repealed in 1910. 1t provided
that persons who had honest calling,'' and who
were sc sauntering about endeavoring to maintain
themselves by gaming, or other undue means, -
might be- in certain cases. Imprisoned, and, if found
incorrigible, hired out-the very same law for which
Gen. Harrision voted in the Senate of Ohio In Mr..
Badgers celebrated Granville Speech, in 1910, in
defending Gen. Harrsons vote in the favor of this
law, he said:
"The mode of disposing of offenders, proposed
in Ohio is not IN North Carolina. By. our own
law man convicted of being vagrant is directed to
be hired out for the costs. This law has been in
force since 1884, and the statute of which. it now
forms section read three times in both houses
Of the General Assembly, and passed, late the
session of 1867. Yet you hear persons declaim-
ing against Harrison who voted for this very law.'
Now be it known, that Charles Manly, the Wing
candidate for Governor, endorsed this very language,
in 1910, as of the members of the Wing Central
Committee, and recommended Mr.. Badgers Speech
the above extract incuded-to the attentive Pc
rusal'' of the people of the State. Surely Mr..
Manly must be hard run, when he thus stutifes
himself by resorting to such arguments against Col.
Reid. -..
We understand that gentleman in Chatham OBJ
served the other day, that he perceived the Register
had challenged the Standard to produce one Whig
who would vote for Col. Reid on account of Equal
Suffrage; and as an to the Register he could
put has finger ten taoefre! We hear the same
news from other portions of the State. And how
can it be otherwise! What freeman in the State,
who values equal rights and has confidence in the
capacity of the people for sefgovernment, vote
for Charles Manly? ..s-.-.e.
The North-Carolina standard., 1848-07-12

From private letters received inthis city, we learn
that COL Reid is gaining ground. Our correspon-
dent says, every young who is not Free-hofder'
will vote for Reid, while many wings who are, will
not support Mr.. Manly-believing the right of suf-
frage the true spirit of our country. The East will
vote for Reid on the same ground. We claim 5000
majority for Reid next month. Dem. Flag
