No chance for Scott.

The Hopkinsville Press says: A very intel
ligent gentleman, of the name Of Young from
huntsville, Alabama, passed through our city
Tuesday evening last, on his way from Bos-
ton, home.
\ whig gentleman standing by asked him his
opinion iii regard to the Presidential election
He replied :-.'Gentlemen, since the nomination
have travelled through twenty-five States of
this Union, and the conclusion | have formed
has been arrived at with extreme reluctance
always have been and still am a whig. and
shall vote for Scott. But, gentlemen, Pierce
viii certainly be elected by an overwhelming
majority. In all my travels / have not met
with Il single democrat who will not vote for
Pierce. The wings are divided everywhere
have talked politics wherever l found people
disposed to converse on political subjects, and
am firmly convinced that Gen. Scott has not the
slightest chance of being elected"
A worthy and devoted whig, General Hays)
who was standing near and heard these remarks
turning up his eyes in pious horror, exclaimed
God forbid II hope your prayer may be
answered - replied the gentleman, land | dis
like to say anything to dishearten my whig
friends; but man might as well be honest"
ANoTHER.-The Wilmington IN. C.) journal
says: stephens, whig member of Congress
from Georgia, came through here last week, and
scared some Of Scott's friends badly, by giving
as his opinion, that Scott was not certain Of
more than one State-Vermont-and was bound
to be the most badly beaten of any man that ev-
CT was started for the Presidency. Stephens
has always been looked upon as a very close cal
culator Of political chances"

= Contrast.

Winfield Scott has declared his opposition to
the naturalization laws, and seeks to modify
them. nv compelling every foreigner to serve a
certain term in tie army or navy, before he can
acouire lis right Of citizenship. lie has been
fired with Indignation" while contemplating
lie influx of emigrants to our shores-and III
order to ouench the fame which threatens to
rausuIne him. he suggests plan OF enlistment,
or more military parlance, ''tmpreSsment."
Under the old Constitution of North Carolina,
the Governor was elected annually by the Lee
stature but in 1885 the Constitution was
smcndcd, and among other things, it was pro
ydcd that this important right should be thence
forth exercised by the people. In 1884 bill
passed the l. gislature providing for CONVEX
ton to make alterations in the Constitution; and
wnGIAm \. GRAHAM the SCOTT candidate for
Vice President, was member of that Legisla-
;are While this bill was pending before the
House, it was moved to strike out of said bill
that clause in the 18th section providing for
the election Of Governor of the State by the free
white men thereof" and the question thereon
was decided III the negative, yeas 50, nays 9i-
WILLIAM A. GRAHAM rotiRg to strike out.
Now, here is a contrast The federal nomi-
nee for thc Presidency is opposed to any system
which guarantees to the forei gnor the Iillt
cizenship, unless earn ed by a term Of military
Ormarine service, while the candidate of the same
party for the Vice Presidency, is equally adverse
70 yielding the right of suffrage to the poor
nan, the mechanic and the laborer Graham
approves the principle acAich giUes porer 10 the
je0 and extracts obedience and submission from the
many. He acts out the innate idea of ancient
and modern federalism, which claims to take care
q the people, at the expense of the peoples
sufrages, their dignity and their independence
,r Scott and Graham are both on the record
There assertions cannot be extinguished-
can their opposition to the claims of the foreign
e'' or the rights of suffrage be denied The
contrast in suggestive intelligent reflection.

We are panied to learn that Hon a. J. Ogle
died, very suddenly, of apoplexy, on Thursday,
Oct. Il. Perhaps no man Of his years was
more extensively known, or more generally be
loved. In his native county he was fav0rite
with all parties, all classes, and all conditions.
and his death has cast melancholy gloom over
the entire community. Col. Ogle filed the of
fee Of Prothonotary of Somerset County, was
elected to Congress, and afterwards received the
appointment of Charge to Denmark, and was
honored with the distinguished compliment Of Il
unanimous confirmation by the Senate Of the
United States. He was eloquent in debate, and
possessed of conversational powers Of the high
est order. a devoted wife and three interesting
little children mourn his untimely loss and, it
has been the subject of general remark, that a
more kind husband or atfectionate father never
lived. In this, the hour of their distress, they
have the deep sympathies of thousands of sor-
rowful hearts.-Be9tord Gazette.
