Last FRIDAY we received q letter from an eSteeul-
ed friend advising of the fact, that danger
existed of Wing being run in to misrepresent the
strongly Democratic county of Onslow. in the next
Senate, owing to the fact two Democrats running.
We hope that there is some mistake in this. We
cannot realize the fact that in any case, Onslow
could be represented by Wing, while her people
three to Democrats; and nothing but the
most wlful neglect of everything like necessary pre-
caution, could produce result which would De so
notifying to the good Democracy Of Onslow. In
an emergency of this kind we feel diffdence in
advising; but we would beg friends to throw a
side all personal feeling and pref udice and rally to
the support of the party. Recollect the important
issues which depend upon the election ofnext Thurs
day The districting of the State for ten years for
members of Congress-for twenty years for mem
bers of the State Senate and House of Commons
the choice of T. S. Senator for six years in place
of Mr.. Mangum-the revisal of the Statutes of the
Statethe question of Convention or of Free Suffrage
and many others, all with the exception OF the Stat
utes, vitality important in party point of view. Can
it be. that at such crisis, the senatorial voice of
Onsow should be thrown on the side of the enemy,
through any squabbes among own people? We
will not believe it. 1t cannot and must not be. We
look confidently for cheering returns from Onslow,
and beg friends to send them on Immediately -
Let not wait for the other, but each man who is
in possession of election returns. send them to US
without delay. 1t will confer great favor upon
Hopeful Man.
The Wilmington Herald has " hopes of old Baden"
this time-to say nothing of the strong hopes he
entertains in regard to Sampson. He has commu-
nication from friend-he has not informed Us
whether the friend be - Anthropos" or Allegha-
N.Y. the man the mountain, and his friend tells
him that Col McDugald is going ahead 'pro-di-
gously" The friend further confdentially observes
IL tell you the Col. has gained laurels l under
stand his chance is first rate to Re elected.' He
says the people won't send up MIR. Robson. "Tbey
might well send up barrel of whiskey." And
is it barrel of whiskey that they want to send
up the gallant Colonel % We should not like to
say so, but such is the plain Inference The Her
AIDS friend says that Col McDugalds chance is first
rate and then explains the matter by adding that the
people have desire to send up barrel of W hiskey
Verify this friend of the Herald ISLANDERS the Col
who, for a Col, and such long one, is temperate,
as are also the people of Bladen. But the
Herald's friend goes farther and exhibits the Col
pitching into Mcdowell. and that gentleman scared
with Col. Burney after him with sharp stick
A hopeful man is the Editor of the Herald, and
hopeful men his correspondents, with tinge of
romance. which sheds its halo around everything.
Do our Baden friends really believe or intend
that Col. McDugal shall msrepresent them ? Dc
the people of the Senatorial district composed o.
Bladen, Brunswick and Columbus intend that Col
Burney, Wing, shall beat that true and tried Dem
ocrat T. s. D. Mcdowell d? No. Il thousand time:
i No! Old Bladen and her sister counties are al
right and tight. and will come forth strong The
day of election for Reid and all the rest ofthe Dem

could entertain strong hopes--or any hopes-o
