By the way, we have read and heard complaints
against Mr.. Morris founded upon the charge that he
fused to comply with the terms upon which he adver-

facts as explained to these:
The hands referred to- and out of whose the
plant has arisen selected their places to board in
the country around. When the first month out and
they came to be settled WITH it found that the cost
was greater than that for which the Commission boarded
the balance of the hands The terms OF the agreement
not having been very precise the different board bills
were paid together with the dollar day stipulated for
but it stated then distinctly, that the Commission
undertook to board the bands and to pay them dollar
day. and would do So but if the hands chose to board
themselves at higher rate than it cost the Commission

pay the difference This is about the substance of the

Democratic State Convention.
RnLeigh. March Sfh, 1860.

AS will be seen by the Address of the Democratic
State Executive Committee that body, in pursuance
of the powers vested in by the last Democratic State
Convention, has appointed Thursday, the 9th day of
March next as the tme and the city of Raleigh the
place for holding the next Democratic State Convention
nominate candidate for Governor and appoint four
delegates at large, to repepresent the State in the Ma
tona Democratic Convention to be held in the city of
Charleston, at time early in the of next
year, the precise time having yet to be fixed by the
Democratic National Committee
We agree most cordially with the recommendations of
the Committee. We must have union, harmony and q
thorough organization the surest guarantee of glor
GUS triumph we may add the only sure guarantee
How these desirable results to be best secured p?
union, harmony and organization, be better promoted
than by ignoring all personal jealouses all merely ndi-
vidual rvares, and knowing rivalry but in serving
the party most efficiently, doing the most to forward the
triumph of its prlncpes-the least to embarrass its
ganzaton by dstractng and unnecessary issues? Are
we not right placing considerable emphasis upon this
last consideration?
With any personal or other variant feelings which
have arisen between any gentleman of the party,
have no right of interference and wish to refer to
them, but to regret their existence. IT had the
power we would Jig an immensely deep grave, in which
we would bury forever all manner of batchets toma-
hawks, hard words and hard feelings not forgetting
our own squabbles, which have been mild Ones in the
general inhumation.
