The Election.

They saw that while some battle was going on in
those classical DAYS wherein eschewed breeches to
their legs and upper feathers to their Shoes there was
an earthquake-.a big double ointed earthquake, which
shook the old boot, Italy, in which the battle took
place, and ripped out several sches-but SO excited
were the eombatants--so pleasantly were they EN-
poyed in shifting each other under the fifth rib, that
they actually knew nothing about it, until informed OF
the fact at night when the few survivors marvelled
few, and offered up several he-sheep and William
goats to Jupiter Mars, and the other fellows.
The state of things in our good town of Whining

White Oak, Bladen Co., N. c., july 25M 1856.
MEssRs. EDITORS ALLOW me to give you short
account of the dongs of the Democratic party in this
portion of Baden.
Pursuant to previous notice, the Democrats of
White Oak District assembled at the Muster Ground
for the purpose of raising Democratic flag, and from
the turnout and the enthusiasm upon the occasion,
you may rest assured that the Democratic party in
this section is wide awake.
When the call was made 10 raise the flag of the
only national party in the Union, seventy good and
true Democrats the right sort of men 10 be depend
ed on--selzed the ropes, and in minute the flag
foated at the head of pole lbs feet high-fIeely
and gloriously, and with omen of success, VIII ch
no X. n flag ever had or ever will have in old Bla-
den. After the flag had been raised and the pole Sc
cured, Troy McGhee gallant little fellow of about
IA years, climbed up about 80 feet to unloose the
ropes; while there he stood upright, and pointing to
the flag proposed three cheers for Bragg, Buchanan,
and Brecknrdge and they were given by those at
the foot as only Democrats can give them.
After this, we preached barrel of as good cider
as ever went down mans throat, and each man
pledged the cause in the rereshing but not intoxca.
ting beverage.
MIR c. T. Davis, young gentleman of talent as a
politician and farmer and respected as good man,
was called upon to address the people. which he did
in most capital Democratic speech, of about hour
II length, during which time he unclaimed his audi.
ence BY the tact and talent with which he handled
his subject. He defended Democracy, and exposed
the secret party got up for lis overthrow, with an
ability which would have done credit 10 the most ex-
perienced speakers. He was greeted throughout by
the most enthusiastic applause.
Our gallant White is carrying everything before
him, and will he elected 10 the Commons by a hand
some majority Taylor will beat Jones in this coun y
just far enough, to show the opposing party that
they can't quite 1t in BIadeH. Our candidate for
Sheriff makes fine impression, and will undoubted-
ly be elected. Bragg will do we'll in Bladen As well
as if " San. had never made his ill-omened appear
ance among u.s. For this you may take the q0ord of
one DEMOCRAT.
