The MAINE LAW IN ONO. The returns from Ohio
announce that the Maine Law, which submitted
the test ola popular vote in that State Tuesday
of last week, has been voted down. The majority is
not stated
The Muskingum Valley, Gas we learn from the
State Journa has gone Democratic this year for the
first time. Tuscarawas Muskingum, Morgan, and
Washington have all sent Democratic representatives
and have given Democratic majorties on State and
county officers, with slight exceptions !'The tenn
perance question paramount there, and we
thought it would prevail if could any where off the
Reserve. But experience showed that while hun
dreds of Wings refused go to the election and 9TH
er hundreds went and voted the Democratic ticket,
the Temperance ticket did not geta corporals guard
of help from the entire Democratic party"
The Cleveland Herald says that the advocates of
Temperance in the Legislature will be complete
ly in the minority that their voices will be hardly
heard and all efforts to the law they ask will
be fruitless. Everywhere the Democratic party join
ed issue with the advocates of the Maine Law, and
everywhere aided by peoples organization
the friends of the Temperance law have been de-
feated.

HONOR WHERE DUE When a in public ca
pacty performs the duties devolying on him WE'LL
matter what the nature of his VOCATION he deserves
praise, and do deem it indicate to bestow
humble need of commentator upon such individ-
uals. We have often thought that John Campbell
Esq, of Weldon, deserved high praise for the able
and courteous manner in which he has discharged
the many duties and met the many responsibilities
devolving upon him as chief agent and manager at
end of one of the most important Railroads in
the United States.
1t is difficult for any in such situation to
escape censure, and particularly from travellers but
wehave yet heard the slightest whisper against
Mr.. Campbell
Long may he live to enjoy the good reputation he
has earned. Portsmouth Globe
We believe Mr. Campbell the Agent of the vii
mington and Raleigh Rail Road Company, has given
general satisfaction both to the Company and to the
travelling public. We have never heard whisper
against him. We love the for his amiable quail
ities and it is truly gratifying to to articles
in his praise, like the above from the Portsmouth
Globe But too much praise cannot be bestowed
upon him: He is good man. and worthy of any
post-having both goodness and capacity combined

REVERSE FORTUNE. A lady, well known and
respected eminent teacher in this city, died at
the advanced age of 80, few days SINCE in the City
Aims House. We knew this lady as the Directress
20 years she was very successful, and had accumu-
lated $50 600 which she invested in Fire Insurance
stock in 1885, Her losses by the great fire ruined
her fortune and prospects, and too proud to apply
friends she went to the City Aims House. where she
has lived years, and died as stated This lady
was highly educated, possessed polished manners,
led an exemplary life, most useful member of
society, had educated hundreds of young ladies' and
yet doomed to die in an Aims House Alasi we know
not what we may come to in this changefu1 world.

GENTLEaiEN Mistakes should always be corrected
In looking over your news papers, to which have
the honor of being subscriber, find that each of
you in publishing list of Premiums awarded st the
first Annual Fair Of the North Carolina State Agri+
cultural Society, Oct 21st 1858, have reported me
as having been awarded Diploma for a year old
FLY, which is clearly mistake, as did not exhib-
it year old FLY, but year old colt; which the
Catalogue of horses will show, and which did with
out any. doubt receive the first Premium over all
those exhibited Such judges Gov. Manly, Maj.
David Mcdaniel and William T. Smith, of Cumber-
land, could not and did not, to my knowledge mis-
take the colt fora lly also, there is omission in
the list of Premiums awarded of the best thorough
bred mare, six years old which certainly did get
the first premium on, as Gov. Manly requested me,
after she was exhibited to write out her pedigree,
which did, and left with the judges. 7 have no
doubt that it uninten tional oversight there
fore do not attach blame to any person 1t is but
small matter anyway, but am disposed that things
shall be handed down to posterity correctly there
FORE hope the proper correction will be made by
the proper authority. Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant

The YoUNG SOUTHERN STATESMAN Among the
political lions that will be at the next Congress of the
United States will be the Hon. T. L. CLINGMAN, of
North Carolina.
It will be remembered that Mr. Clingman's infu-
gave the vote of North Carolina to Mr.. Pierce.
The Democrats filled to turn out well the State
east of Mr.. Ciingmans district, while the Wings, on
account of the personal and political sympathy they
felt for Mr.. Graham, turned out almost to man.
This being the case, Pierce went to the mountains
under halt-reefed sails. But there Clngman had
exerted his influence against Scott and for Pierce
and the result in his District that the Democrats
turned out generally, and with them scores of anti
Scott Wings who could not take the bitter pill down.
though coatedwith Graham sugar. Contrary, there
fore, to every expectation based upon all the early
returns, the State gave its electoral vote to Gen.
Pierce This important fact sustained by the subse
quent election of Mr.. Clingman from District al
tered and shaped to GerTymander him out will give
him an important and marked position in the next
Congress.
Mr.. Clingnlan is comparatively young man yet
but holds fair rank among the finest intelects of
the land If, as a personal friend and admirer of Mr.
CEngman, we be permitted to refer to and name his
foible, would say it is his intense ambition And
we only call it foibe because the world so deems it.
But even this is not intense in him than it was
in Calhoun, Clay and Webster and if the great
ness of any indebted to weakness, the
greatness of the three men named, not to mention
the Napoeons and the Pitts was indebted to this
weakness. So, if it be foible in Mr.. Clingman's
nature, it is SO, qualified by the extenuaton which
such distinguished precedents afford
AS thinker, Mr.. Clingman is vigorous and clear
as writer he approaches the close, logical precise
and unadorned style of the British reviewers as an
extempore speaker, the same logic and precision dis
tnguish his efforts; but there are more adornment,
more passion, more fire. with more of the flowers of
rhetoric and with occasional happy and well located
episodes of eloquence.
At this time Mr.. Clingman possesses more local
influence than any man in North Carolina to obtain
this influence and retain it he has had from the first
Gas know from individual Observatory to struggle
against more obstacles, both INSCRIPTIONS and Dig
nifed, than any in the State has had to
counter.
In manners, when in public, Mr.. Clingman appears
reserved and distant Among his constituents, how
ever humble they may be, he is open, afabe, kind,
and easy of access without these attributes he could
never have proved popular as he has with the hard
fsted plain peasantry and yeomanrysof the noun
tains.
