AUGUSTUS MOORE, Eso-We announce the nomi-
nation of this young and sterling Democrat to re-
present Martin County in the lower branch of the
next Legislature with mingled feeling OF pride and
pleasure. Augustus Moore is young man of more
than ordinary ability, which fact well attested
while he the able editor of this Journal In
the presidential campaign of 1885, when he was
under nineteen years of age, he publicly espoused
the principles of Democracy, and IN August Of that
year he commenced the publication Of the Banner,
which he continued until the first of this year, when
he retired in order that he might devote his whole
time to the study of the law. His arduous labors
for the advancement Of Democratic principles and
the success of our candidates were appreciated by
the Democracy of Martin, and they have now selec-
ted him as a suitable person to receive their suf
frages and well worthy of their confidence and sup
port. Martin county may well feel proud of Angus
tus Moore. She has honored him and he will honor
her in the next Legislature His political opponents
may object to him because he will not be twenty.
one on the day of election. but we hardly think any
of them will dare meet him in political discussion.
In fact do not imagine that he will have the least
opposition, and if he should he will be elected by
larger majority than any man ever received in Mar
tin county. He is able, capable and faithful, and
will discharge his legislative duties with credit to
himself and the county he represents We predict
that the Democracy of Martin will rally to his sup.
port with enthusiasm that has not been witness.

Search and Seizure of American Vessels.
The President transmitted on the 18th to the
Senate, in response to a resolution of that body,
several official papers relating to subject which is
now engrossing public attention. Among these is =
letter of instructions from Mr.. Glass; Secretary of
State, to our Minister at London, Mr. Dallas. in
which the former, after abiding to the recent high
handed conduct of British men.of.war in searching
our merchant vessels says:
"These fragrant violations of the rights of the
United States have excited deep feeling through
the country and have attracted the attention of both
houses of Congress. Their continuance cannot fail
to produce the most serious effects upon the rea-
tons of the two countries. The President conf.
IDENTIFY believes that the British naval officers in the
adoption of these high handed measures, have acted
without the authority, and have misunderstood the
views, of their government But it is not the less
due to the United States that their conduct should
be disavowed, and peremptory orders issued to pre-
vent the recurrence Of similar proceedings hereafter
You will communicate to the Earl of Malmesbury
the earnest expectation of the President that this
subject should receive the immediate attention of her
Britannia Maestys government, and that the officers
who have been guilty of these outrages should be
held properly responsible for their conduct and that
where pecuniary injuries have been suffered, the in
terested parties should receive just compensation"

MIR. Branch,s Circular.

We publish to-day the Circular of Hon. L. OBJ.
Branch his constituents and invite to it the at
tention of our readers generally. The question of
distribution is thoroughly discussed by Mr. Branch,
and that too in an able and conclusive manner.
This Circular should have wide circulation It
will be useful especially at this time in informing
the people of the facts involved in the distribution
question.
Circular:
Gan ANCIENT Custom REv1vED.-The Hon. L.
OBJ. Branch of North. Carolina, has recently pub.
lshed letter to his constituents of the 4th Con.
gressiona District of that State the subjects of
the redistribution of the public lands" and Gin
crease of taxation" The letter makes pamphlet
of sixteen pages and presents concise view Of the
question of distributing the proceeds of the public
lands-a question which has been revived in that
State by candidate for Governor who seeks to
make use of it to divide and defeat the Democratic
party. Of which he has heretofore professed TO be
member. The effort will be futile vet the pampblet
on the subject by Mr. Branch, is opportune and will
confirm the Democracy of North Carolina in their
adherence to the ancient landmarks of the partv
We are also gratiied to observe that Mr.. Branch
has revived an ancient practice in the issue of this
letter, which ought to become the universal usage
on similar occasions. That practice is fully stated
in the preface to the letter, which we give without
comment, except 10 commend 1t to the imitation Of
others who propose to make "Buncombe" speeches
for home consumption"
SYMPATHY WITH JUDGE DOUGLASS THE ALLY OF THE
BLACK REPuBLlcANs.-In his speech in Fayetteville
in February last-we quote from the Fayetteville
Obseroer-Mr. McRae, speaking of Judge Douglas,
said:
''Should Mr.. Douglas be sacrificed? His ruin
would be the Decentralization of the Democratic
party. He was its hope in the North DESTROY
him, and you destroy the party, and give another
deadly blow to the Union of these States. Graft
tude for past services. considerations of future poll
| cy, alike forbade the sacrifice"
Mr.. McRae also spoke of the admission of Kan.
sas with the Lecompton Constitution as fancied
triumph" and asked his hearers if they would "be-
come party to fraud" by admitting Kansas with
that Constitution. See O6seruer of February IL.
1851
Mr.. McRae is also reported as having said, in his
speech at marlborough, that if he had been a
member of Congress he would have sat in his seat
