PITT REDEEMED,

1. Foreman, d.. has been elected to the Commons
over F. B. Satterthwaite, President of the late
Wing State Convention, and that too in a County
heretofore Wing. Reid leads Kerr by Is MAORI
ty, and makes a clear gain of 81. State of the
poll Senate B. G. Albritton, W., without opposi-
ton; Commons, W. J. Blow, independent and
anti-Seott wing, Ill., John l. Foreman, d., $40,
F. B. Satterthwaite, Scott whig, 632. James A.
Brown, d., elected Sheriff by $50 majority over
ID. b. Bryan, W. Brown 677, Bryan SAT. A
friend writes us from Pitt-.in cheering strains:
" Old Pitt is redeemed! For the first time in a
Guoefnatorlai election We have given a majority.
Foreman is elected-gorous DR.. w. ]. Blow is
elected, which is by no means wing victory, he
having voted the democratic ticket throu ghout and
we consider his election victory, as the wings
made every effort to defeat him while we gave him
our support Satterthwaite, Scott wing, is defeated
by hand some majority. He stumped it for Scott
all the County, and the result indicates what we
will do In November. Our success in the Sheriff 9
election Is also most gratifying. Brown is young
man OF promise, and male of the right of stuff "
Pitt is in the District of the traitor Stanly, and
Mr.. Satterthwaite is of his most devoted friends
The latter gentleman will now have abundant lei
sure to reflect upon his mistake-to use no strong
er word-in deserving the rights and interests of
his section to go for the Seward candidate for Pre-
sident.
ANSON
Senate, Richardson, W., reelected; Commons, A.
J. Dargan, W., $50, Tolson, Free Suffrage W., 772,
Dunlap, W., 7o1, May, W., 235. A friend writes
us as follows:
" Free Suffrage triumphant in Anson! am hap
py 20 inform You that Cary Toson, open and
disguised Free Suffrage man, is elected from this
stronghold of whggery. This is glory enough for
one day, and is disappointment to whig
friends, who body used every possible means to
him to the Spartan band of democrats of this County"
GOOD NEWS FROM CRAVEN!
We learn that the democrats have elected two
Commoners in Craven-gain of one. Hon. w.
Fl. Washington, Free Suffrage and anti Conyen-
ton wing, is of course reelected to the Senate.
We learn, further, that Craven has given 1O2 ma
jority for Reid if so, a gain of 10! We have no
details. Craven has done better than well.
GALLANT LITTLE JONES!
We learn that William P. Ward, d., has been
elected to the Commons by "a majority. This is
a gain. Also, handsome gain for Reid. If this
information be correct the democrats of Jones have
acquitted themselves with distinguished credit.
Jones and Craven Counties are also in Stanlys
District.

GE- In the account given by one of our Cor
espondents, of the late Commencement at Wake
crest College, alusion is made to the manner in
,hich all the graduates acquitted themselves with
ne exception of Mr.. Benjamin J. Lea, of Caswell.
We are satisfied, from our knowledge of the char
cter of our Correspondent that his omission to do
lstice to Mr.. Lea was unintentional. We have
