M Hutchins followed Mr.. Fari6ault He was
gao tnat an opportunity was afforded to meet the
good o'd Democrats of Laws precinct, and were it
not that his friends, Haywood and Faribsult, had
consumed so much time, and that others had to fol-
low who wished to address the audience at length
on the occasion, he would be proud to entertain
them for the space of his allotted hour in the dis
cusson OF those great and vital questions which are
before the country at the present day. Mr.. Hutch
ms assured the people that he not one of the
Haywood. or even as his friend Bledsoe, but he be:
ionged to the working class-he was the son of a
farmer and farming was his business; therefore, it
must not be expected for him to make longer
speech when others were more anxious
Mr.. Hutchins, or " FAB" as the boys call him, is
winning popularity any man might feel proud Of
All the old farmers in the country know him and
know and appreciate the interest he has already
MANIFESTED, though SO young a man, in behalf of
the farming interests of the country Nor is be less
popular with the young men. The boys all know
him and love him, and will not fail to poll him big
vete on the first Thursday in August.
NE Bledsoe, candidate for the Senate, followed
Mr. Hutchins, filling up his entire hour, and, al
though the people had already been harangued for
three or four hours he heard with patience and
more than usual interest. Mr.. BIS character as
public speaker is too we'll known in the county for
me to undertake to sketch his effort on this occa.
sion. His speech was the speech of the day. though
he spoke but an hour.
Next came the Sheriff candidates, and for two
hours they kept pretty sharp cross fire but they
retained their good humor, and treated each other as
gentlemen. Mr. High, the Democratic candidate, is
as strong here to-day he was if not stronger
Some say he is stronger. There is no doubt of his
triumphant rec election.
From this brief sketch, Mesars. Editors, you may
form some idea as to how the campaign in Wake is
progressing.

MEssRs. EDrroRs: The first regular discussion be.
tween the Franklin candidates. the south side of

Goth inst and assure you in argumentative facts
it was all a one sided game. Old franklin is truly
fortunate in acquiring the services Of such command

Landlord and Greene. The system of demolition
was commenced by Mr. Landlord, in reply to his
opponent, Mr. Spivey the independent disorganizer.

places him, Davy, "among the odds and ends Of all
parties" By the time Landlords winnowing is fin
shed, doubt not but long Davy will take another
trip to the far West in search of land location, &C.
Mr.. w. F. Green followed in one of the NEST
thorough, we'll, aimed arguments it has ever been
our lot to hear. He traversed local and State issues
with the skill of an old veteran, and entered the
broad area Of national politics with gloves off and
manifested to the people the different colors his friend
and opponent, Mr.. Thomas, has been sailing under
for the last twenty years. In the language of Mr..
Thomas, che is the toughest, stumpy newground 1

Legislature is important and it is important to have
good Sheriffs; but a true Democrat will not con-

the votes he can for all the boxes Hundress-nay,
thousands Of votes may be secured by proper effort

Wake County.

The campaign in Wake will close on Wednesday
next, at Lashleys Cross Roads.
There is no opposition to Mr.. Bedsoe for the Sem
ate; and no regular opposition in the Commons.
Maj Jones, we understand. though he declined to
canvass the County, has nevertheless attended sew.
eral of the gatherings with the candidates, and is
willing to serve in the Commons if elected. Are
our Democratic friends sure that it has not been
cretly determined by the Know Nothings to vote for
Mai. Jones? 1t is we'll to be on the alert in this
respect as in others; but the surest way to defeat
the arrangements of the opposition is to turn out in
full force and cote tue ticket Let stand, brother
Democrats, by our chosen candidates. They are
laboring in the cause with zeal and ability; and we
owe it to them to ourselves consistent Democrats,
and to principles which they represent, to give
them united and cordial support.
We appeal slso to our friends in Wake County to
unite as one man on JOHN W. ELLIS. Let US
give him, as We can give him. eight hundred ma
jorty in the County. Our County vote is increasing
every year, and by proper efforts on our part we
can secure large proportion of this increase. See
that every voter has Ellis ticket and that misrep
reservations and false charges against him are met
on the day of election. He has canvassed the State
most ably and CALAMITY for the good old cause; and
aside from the fact that he is nominee he has
entitled himself to hearty support by his devo-
ton to principles and by his active labors in our
behalf from Halifax to Cherokee.
We would also remind our Wake County friends
Of the importance of continuing the Sherifalty in
Democratic hands. Mr.. High has made an excel
lent officer. No alleges that he has been def
cient in his duties; and We all know that he has
been as indugent to the people as any man of even
ordinary prudence could have been. A change in
the Office could he of no benefit to any one except
the people and to County interests 1t certainly
would weaken the Democratic party of the County.
Besides, brother Democrats, he is nominee and
that binds US to stand by him. Is not that SO? If
motif We at liberty, as Democrats, to vote for
Mr.. High or not just may choose, how can we
expect the party hereafter to prove true to other
nominations? If we do not stand by him in this
contest, how expect his friends to stand by
other nominations in future contests? Democracy
is founded upon justice,-we must do as We would
be done by. We have no fears as to the result.
We believe that, with proper efforts by the party
and by Mr.. Highs friends generally, be will be tri
umphanty reelected; but, because he has made
good Sheriff. and because he is the Democratic nomi-
nee we desire to see his majority increased. We
can increase it, and increase it largely il We will
