THE VOTE FOR GOVERNOR.

The vote for Governor is still incomplete, some
tventysix Counties remaining to be heard from Off
c,v It will be seen that we have footed up in our
table majority of2,OSl for MIR. Bragg but we have
doubts as to the correctness of the reported votes OF
HYDE and W Watauga, and incline to think that his
majority, when the vote is ascertained officially, will
be over that given above.

rus, Person, Alexander, New Hanover, Onslow, Per-

The CRors. So far as we have observed, and from
information received from Farmers and others in
this section of country, and for miles around, the
crops are unusually promising. The forward corn
is nearly made, and the late looks fine and will
mako well if the season continues as favorable as
they have done for more than month. The cotton
looks better than we ever it at this season of the
year. 1t is tall and green, but either long spell Of
wet or long spell of dry weather, we fear, would
injure it materialy-too much wet weather would
cause the bo.ls to rot and too much dry weather
would cause them either to fall off or to open too
soon. We hope, however, that no disaster will hap
pen. The pea crop is luxurant- Those who raise
turnips have already sowed the seed or will sow in
a few days. Now is good time to sow to raise fine
turnips.
Ali those who have labored hard this year in the
cultivation of the SOIL will no doubt at harvest time
reap rich reward for their labors. 1t always graft
6es us to hear Of good crops being made: We Ike
to see every one have a plenty, especially OF that
which is to sustain life Thanks to kind provi-
dence for the present favorable prospects

In Bunconbe, Madison and Yancey Mr.. Bragg has
made a nett gain of two hundred and eight votes,
compared with the vote two years ago. Woodfin's
maj. in this county is 90. Two years ago he beat
his opponent in this county nearly 800 votes. Col.
Vance and Col. Reynolds candidates for the Com
mons, are both Wings, the only material difference
between them was that the latter was for Mr.. Cling
and Mr.. Badger for the Senate, while the for
mer for the regular caucus nominees of the par
ty. We have made this explanation because an ef:
fort will be made to create the impression that the
election of COL Vance is condemnation of Mr.. Cling
by the people of this county. The truth is, and
it is known by every intelligent man in the county,
the election not decided upon the merits of the
Senatorial question. There were side issues, one
particularly, which exerted controlling influence
in the contest. If the election of Col Vance is
demnatory of Mr.. Clingman, it is equally so of Mr..
Badger, for the two were always coupled together.
We hope the Colonel will make note of this and if
he feels bound to vote against Mr.. Cingman next
winter, he may feel equally bound to vote against
Mr.. Badger AsheoiAe Neos.

Four hundred foreigners in the employ of the gov

Baltimore custom-house, so young when they reach

Can any democrat annul his ancient ties to unite
with such allies? the head and front of which, at

"Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright,
for end of that man is peace"-Ps. S7-27.
MR. EDITOR: In the Southerner of the 22d inst.
we find faithfully written obituary notice of our
highly esteemed and much beloved brother in Christ
James s. Battle, deceased. This We deem well
merited eulogy, and will be conceded by all who
were intimately acquainted with him; but with all
due Difference beg leave to add that in early life
he became member of the Regular or United Bap-
tist Church ut the Falls of Tar River and with an
unwavcring devotion maintained and adhered to the
doctrines and tenets of that church to the day of his
death In very few instances did he fail to attend
each annual session of the Kehukee Association for
a series of years, delegate to represent his par
ticular church in that body; and although this mo-
ther of Associations Gin North Carolna) is compos-
ed of "a sect everywhere spoken against" yet it
his oft repeated opinion that she of the true
orthodox faith and he seemed ever ready and will
ing to aid and defend her against the many nnova-
tons attempted by false teachers or designing men
to mar her peace and happiness. He was man Of
wealth and education, which formed decided con-
trast between him and his brethren generally; yet
sRsh Ta hiN kNe e9afk val and lhpmbf taspsatRsat aReRg
ed by them; and in him shone with undInmed lus-
ire that Chrstianke trait Of" estcemng others bet
ter than himself" Seldom has death ever stricken
down one in our midst of as much use to the COM
munity generally and to the church in particular, as
his heart and purse were ever open to the objects OF
true charity; ana may we ms surviving DretnIen,
justly appreciate his WORTH and be excited to imi-
tate as far as able his many and noble deeds. The
vacuum produced by his death we have no reason to
hope ever to see filled, since he was "a man take
him all in all we shall never look upon his like again.
But whilst it is our lot to be thus bereayed, We de-
sire to submit with becoming to the chas
teniug hand of Him whose province is to give and
take away; believing as we do that though it be
temporal loss loss to us it is eternal gain to de-
ceased brother The doctrine of unconditional cleo
ton ION the creatures par) eternal predestination
free and sovereign grace, seemed to be the theme OF
his SOUL and formed the anchor Of that hope which
safely moored in Christ the rock Of eternal ages
Dearest brother, though hast left MS 90
And our loss We deeply feel;
But tits God that hath bereft US,
He all our sorrows heal
Yet again we hope to meet thee,
When the tolls of life are fed
There in Heaven with JOY TO greet thee,
Where no farewell tear is shed. E,
