FELLOW -CIrIzENs As Chairman of the Executive
Committee Of the Democratic Party for the County

Of Disorganizers should properly rest let the fol-

or place him in the House. and that vote will Meth

Please answer categorically whether you will ac-
cept the assumption of the Standard as basis of

North Carolina.
An early answer through the Democrat is re,
quested.
Yours respectfully,
W.. R. MYERS
At meeting of the Breckenridge Party, held on

Brtton Editor of the Bulletin, Uhich pere rejected
WHEREAS A division in the ranks Of the Demo

of early expressed preferences in favor of the Hon.
Stephen A. Douglas, on the part of some Of his
friends, prior to the nomination Of the Hon. John

Of the latter gentleman to use every honorable
means to re-unite the Democracy of the State for

Semi-weekly standard. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1853-18??, 1860-08-29

Mr.. William d. Cooke, who first naugurated the
idea with us of this charitable Institution and who
has been the Principal of it since its formation, in
1s49, we believe, has resigned his situation. Mr..
Cooke takes what he considers more advantageous
situation-Principal of the Georgia Asylum. With
an experience of about twenty years, he IS well
qualified for his duties.
We learn that the Board of Directors, on Friday
last filled the vacancy caused by Mr. Cookies resig-
nation, by the appointment of Mr.. Willie j. Palmer,
former vice Principal We consider this an excel
lent appointment and it is certainly highly compli
mentary to Mr. Palmer whose connection with the
Institution has not been of long duration. But
however high the compliment, it is none the less
worthily bestowed. Mr.. Palmer is young man of
fine talents, devoted to his profession and will ac-
quit himself with honor. He is also native of the
State; and we have always contended, as We yet
contend, that whenever North-Carolina promotes
and honors her own sons, she will have no difficulty
in finding many, many of her children worthy of
her care, and who viii reflect upon her the honors
conferred upon them All communications, con-
nected with the affairs of the Asylum, will in future
be directed to Mr.. Palmer.

Official Vote for Governor.

We insert our table again to-day. There are
few counties not strictly official but we believe they
are correct We make the majority for Gov. Ellis
1924. Some of our cotemporaries make it about
100 more but we believe our calculation to be cor
rect Some of their figures, we know, do not cor
respond with the official returns
The aggregate vote is 112, 662, which is 1904
larger than ever before polled in the State. Gov.
Ellis vote is 3,Ol4 than it was two years ago,
and Mr.. Pools is 1s, 173 larger than Mr.. McRae's-
showing an increase of 16, 1877 votes, as compared
with the preceding election.

HORRIBLE IF TRUE!-A letter writer to a New
York paper states that at ball given to the Prince
of Wales at Quebec, Canada, the Prince danced
twenty-five sets out of twentyfour. So far, no dam
age done; but we are further informed that in one
of the "sets" the Prince felIl-yes, "fell heavily"
Is the language used pulling his partner, Mrs Car
Tler, wife of the Governor, lover him" Not a
great" but small Prince fallen. We are happy
10 add that the Prince begged his partners pardon,
but whether it was while he was down or after he
got up, We know not. Why was'not the letter
writer more explicit?
