Mr. Webster upon politics.

Mr.. Webster received with much enthusiasm
at his home at MarshfeId, Mass. The Hon. Seth S.
Sprague delivered an address of welcome, to which
Mr.. Webster responded in feeling terms. He re-
turned his thanks for the kindness with which be
had been received After proceeding further in this
strain, he alluded to political position. Mr..
Sprague he said had been pleased to refer to
occurrences upon which he did not deem it fit for
him to say anything, the time had not yet come.
Whatever he had of good or valuable in him, he
would hold in his own keeping. and not trust it to
the waywardness of others. From this it is plain,
that whatever course MIR Webster may yet adopt in
regard to the Presidential question: he has so far
made his intention public, authorized Mr.. Tai
madge to speak for him.
Mr.. Webster spoke warmly on the subject of the
Fisheries and of his determination to assert and
protect American rights in that matter.

which keeps standing from week to week, under its
head in large capitals, what it calls extract from

it knows that this so-called speech is false fabrea

NEW HANOVER CotNTY. July %


Mr.. EDITOR In your paper of the Odd inst,
notice that Mr.. John d. Powers announces himself
as candidate, to represent New Hanover county in
the next House of Commons. This, sir, has surpri-
sed me no little; for had supposed that any New
Hanover Democrat who would allow his name to be
presented to convention, would certainly abide the
decision of the body whose nomination he desired
If Mr. Powers had objections to the mode in which
the delegates appointed he should have refused
to allow his name to be presented to them his not
having done So is conclusive that, had he been Sc
lected he would have accepted, and We should not
have heard objections frcm him.
By referring to the election returns Of this coun-
ty for 1850 it will be found that Gov Reid received
1857 votes Mr. Powers received SS7 Mr. Hill $50.
What caused this difference between the Governors
and the Commons votes ! cannot imagine any
other answer than that the ticket for the Commons
not popular; it cannot be said that the differ
ence 600 votes was caused by the Wings voting
for Gov. Reid for the for Gov. Manly in 1850,
differed but votes from that OF 1913 he returns
for 1850 show further. that at South ashington-
(NIr Powers home )-he received lOl votes and Mr.
Hill 58 at Long Creek, where he is said TO be pop
ular he received 95 votes, and NJ Hill q, when at
the precincts in the lower part of the county, they
ran together. or nearly Was this fair play =
They were both nominated y the same convention,
and were equally entitled to the support of the par

slow race the last CommonerS had made, falling

that the demands of the party required change.

We have been somewhat surprised by statement
in the Raleigh Standard to the effect that although

at that time q less vote than they cast for Mr..

great difference in numbers, bat still considerable
falling off when we take into account the progress
of population Onslow, of all the counties in the
State is one which should especially mark Its repro
baton of Mr. Kers's Convention schemes by polling
its fullest strength for his opponent Gov Reid who
deserves all the support which every honest Demo-
era and good Republican can give him. Among
the Convention papers and speakers OF the Western
part of the State, Onslow has been an unfang
text for attack upon the property basis in the Senate
Mr. Kerr is Convention man, and his schemes
once carried out,-good bye to Senator. or per-
haps even to Il representative from Onslow.
We feel assured that old Sampson will do herself
honor at the coming electon-that her sturdy Demo-
Gratis will march up the clls and cast the largest
vote for Reid, which any candidate has ever reeelv
ed in Sampson County. In 1880 she poled oo5 FOR

for Polk She will this time go over the 700 1t Is
true that in the low Counties like Onsow it is hard

have said,-the more so, there are questions OF

..Trouble im the Camp

Under this head, the Herald of last Wednesday in
dulges in much self graduation upon the subject
of apparent disagreements among the Democrats
and further eicitates itself upon what it considers
the evident perturbation and depression of the Jour-
nal. We would not willingly deprive the Herald
of any of the few ofpolitica comfort which
its unfortunate position affords and content
that it should exc out its meal of scandal against
the Democracy, which it commenced with the mis-
cradle abolition fraud against Gen Pierce, with any
number of manifestoes from disappointed aspirants
or oficious mischief-makers. We let all this pass
conscious that in one case as in the other, the
tives of these allies against Democracy will be duly
appreciated and their services rewarded as such SER
vices deserve.
That the Journal should deeply regret anything
like trouble in the camp. is natural-every good De-
mocrat does those who do not, can lay few claims
to that character,-while those who strive gratu-
tously to stir strife and all unchartabeness upon
the eve of an election, can have none
Mr.. Sanders is private citizen, and no,c at
least his character should be sacred, and his name
not be dragged into controversy of this kind
Perhaps the Herald, upon reflection will see ths-it

mercial of Saturday.
1t would perhaps suit the views, if not of the Her.

up hard feelings between the editor of the Journal
and Messrs, Powers and Larkins. This, we will
venture to say, they cannot do. They know that
the editor of the Journal is actuated by of
what he conceves to be his duty. 1t would be diff
fcut to render some of the sanderers conscious of
this since among all the senses, sense of duty is
the last they would be able to appreci-
ate. fitting time may come for noticing in
detail some of the attacks made upon us
though upon the whole, it is doubtfnl-the game
is not worth the candle. We prefer that some few

Some Plain Questions.


It has been objected that the primary meetings
by which delegates appointed to the county
convention, were, in many cases, small. Let US ask
how many persons were present at South Washing
ton-whether there more than five or six-and
whether Mr. Powers himself was not present. urg-
ing and sanctioning the appointment of delegates
from that neutrality-suspicious. he was not present at
Court during Monday and Tuesday, and finding no
fdult-neither he nor his frends-with the conven-
ton, until after the nominations had been made 3
/ Would not Mr. Powers have accepted of the nomi-
nation of that convention if it had been rendered
him +! How many of those who are now furiously
denouncing the convention, would have refused its
nomination Of course, we know that there are
and always have been-many good Democrats oppo-
sed to Conventions, and respect their opinions
but we allude now to the aspirans, who the eve
of State election, turn their with such POM
pous fury against their former friends. Mr. Powers,
we feel certain, is free from such bitterness,
and has no doubt felt himself forced into a
painful position by some wel-meaning ba, mis-
taken friends. 1t is those who knowing bet
ter, step forward gratuitously and without pal
liation or excuse, save in their own malignant
vanity, strive to create trouble in the camp, who
should bear the weight of the blame.
| We would further ask, whether some who now
have holy horror of conventions, would not have
thought them a capital organization, had they been
selected. 1t seems though, that in spite of their
tremendous efforts, the public ungrateful, and
they have not been called out, into position in
which they could display their promise" and infu-
ence" Verify, Republics ungrateful. and man
of such promise would be foolish to hide his
light under bushel although nobody asked him to
show it.
