considerable ability by Mr.. w. B. Nc
Carly. Situated as we are, in strong
Locotoco county, he does not feel inclined
to battle with divided front, and thus
calls upon the Wings to rally:
Owe have been TOO muchin the habit
Of acting with carelessness and indiffer-
ence, because we could not carry every
thing, and trusting too much TO those
cnuuties which have been in the habit of
rolling up large majorities. This is ia

ties, the excitement will always be great
enough 10 call out the full vote of the par
ty. 1t tisin' the minority counties where
the work must be- done. There is not
one OF them but can increase their vote,
by extra exertions, immeasurably more

rouse themselves to the work, and we
will be security for the counties where

There is no good reason why we should
not run an entire county ticket An or
ganizaton can never he effected and kept
up in the county without it. We want
the very best men in the party brought
out; and then let every exertion be
used to give them the entire patty vote
By this means we can, at least, measure

have row in our recollection, some cour'-
ties where the majority was as great a.

pertinent be tried; it eau do no harm, and
we are certain would he productive oI
much good Whatever is done let it be
withoug delay Nolime can now be lost

A divided sentiment upon the formation
ofa ticket, has repeatedly placed the par
ty in this county in an unfortunate posi-
tion. Our opinion has ever been that a

proper abilities from differeIlt por,iuns OF
