We declined to secede at Baltimore; but out Of
respect for the opinions of the fifteen delegates who
did, and because of the pending elections at home
being anxious to do nothing which would prevent
us from cordially cooperating with our Democratic
friends in the Gubernatorial Legislative, and Pre-
sidential campaigns-we declined to act or to vote

of co-deegates had retired. If we had acted or

however, to question the motives the patriotism

Indce DnnyIns Oh the Union.

On Saturday night last Judge Douglas was Sere-
nadcd at his residence in Washington, and spoke
briefly in acknowledgment of the honor thus done
him. Among other things, after declaring how
deeply he impressed with the responsibilities of
his position, and his trust that Providence would
impart to him the strength and wisdom to comply
with all its requirements, he said
"Our beloved country is threatened with a fear
fu sectional antagonism which places the Union it.
self in imminent peril. This antagonism is produc-
ed by the effort in one section of the Union to use
the federal government for the purposes of restrict
ing and abolishng slavery, and corresponding ef-
for: in the other section for the purpose of extend
ing slavery into those regions where the people do
not want it. Cries of that's true
The ultra men in each section demand congre;-
sional intervention upon the subject of slavery in
the Territories They agree in respect to the power
and duty Of the federal government to control the
question, and differ only to the mode of exercis-
ing the power. The one demands the intervention
of the federal government for slavery and the other
against it. Each appeals to the passions and pre-
JUDGES of his own section against the peace and
harmony of the whole country [Cries of That's
So" and applause.
On the other hand the position of all conserva-
tive and Union loving men is, or at least ought to
be- that of non-intervention by Congress with slave
ry in the Territoritores. [Cries of That's the
true doctrine" and applause
After. referring to the ground occupied by the
party in 1s4s, 1852 and 1856, he said:
GAS the chosen representative of that great par
ty, it is my fixed purpose to keep the faith and re-
deem that pledge at all hazards and under all cir
cumstances. Three cheers for Douglas. The safe
ty Of the Union depends upon strict adherence
to the doctrine of non-intervention Intervention
means disuniOn. Intervention, whether by the
North or by the South-whether for or against
slavery tends directly to disunon. Upon this iden-
teal question an attempt is being made to d.
vide and destroy the Democratic party because the
minority of the interventionists could not intmi-
date the majority into an abandonment of the doc
trne of non-intervention. They have seeded from
the organization of tie Democratic party, and are
endeavoring to form a new party in hostility to it
[Cries of "let them CO. we can whip the disunon-
lists North and South.
Secession is disunion. Secession from the Demo
cratic party means secession from the federal Union.

the 4th of March next to take up arms against the
constituted authorities in certain contingencies.

The Election of 1924.

In 1924 there were four candidates for the Presi-
dency, to wit, Gen. jackson, John Quincy Adams,
William II. Crawford and Henry Clay. Gen. Jack
son received SO Electoral votes, Mr.. Adams 81 Mr..
Crawford Al, and Mr.. Clay 81. The three first
named candidates went to the House of Representa-,
tives, in which body, after protracted and ANNA,
ted struggle Mr.. Adams was elected, mainly by the
influence of Mr.. Clay. Gen. jackson, who was the
choice of the people, defeated, but in 1928 the
people took him up and elected him triumphantly.
Mr. Crawford, who regarded as the regular
Democratic Republican candidate, was nominated
by Congressional caucus The caucus became
unpopular, and to this mainly must be attri-
buted the small vote which Mr.. Crawford received.
In this State there two tickets before the people,
the Crawford ticket and the Peoples ticket. The
Electors on the Peoples ticket represented Gen.
Jackson and Mr. Adams, and were pledged to cast
their votes for the other the people should
direct The vote of the State was cast for Gen.
Jackson the Peoples ticket having prevailed at the
polls by majority of 4,79+ votes; but we do not
know how the choice of the people between Jack
son and Adams was indicated We would be OBJ
liged to any one for information the subject
An eminent citizen and sterling Democrat, wri-
ing us from the Roanoke country, suggests that in
the present emergency our Electors already nomi-
mated remain in the field, and that they be voted
for by all the Democrats in the State IN this way:
Let tickets with the same Electors be printed some
with the names of Breckenridge and Lane and some
with the names of Douglas and johnson, ard let
the voters take their choice let the voters mark
their tickets Douglas or Breckenridge they may
choose Let the SherifS be requested to return the
votes thus cast and then let the Electors cast the
vote Of the State for the candidates having the
highest vote. This seems TO us 10 be fair propo-
sition, and we trust it will be adopted 1t can do
no HARM and it may do much good in the way Of
harmonious and united action. 4 division in the
Democratic ranks at this time will certainly give
the State to Bell and Everett.
few of the anti Douglas Democrats are already
intmating that they will give quarters to those
who are inclined to support Douglas and johnson,
and who refused to secede at Baltimore Our course
at Charleston, return home, and at Baltimore
shows that we will go as far any one to ensure
harmony in the ranks We will continue to bear
Misrepresentation and demonstration of our
motives rather than do any thing which will involve
the party in streS and divisions at this time when
every effort and every will be necessary to
cess; but warn those who would put Douglas
men under the ban, that they wiU not submit TO be
drdgOone2 out Of their honest opinions federation,
Justice and llberality must be exhibited on both
sides, otherwise striGes and divisions inevitable

WASHINGTON, June 27.-Senators Green and Polk,

Election of President bv the House,

In the present condition of parties it is impossible
to predict the result of the Presidential election in
November. The election may go to the House of
Representatives it did in 1924. In that event it
may be well to anticipate the result The House
will vote by States-that is, majority of the Rep
resentatives from each State will cast the vote of
the State each State having one vote The States
as now represented stand as follows: Republican
Is, Democratic IA, American l, tied 8. 1t will re-
quirc II votes to elect the number of States being
SO. The House will commence voting in February,
and ii no choice shall be made by the 4h of March,
1861, the duty of electing Vice President who will
be the President, will then devolve on the Senate.
We take it for granted that the name of. Lincoln,
the Republican candidate, will go to the House,
should there be no choice by the people. Who the
other two highest will be it is impossible to foresee.
We are consolved, however, by the reflection that
either would be preferable to Lincoln.
If the election of President should devolve upon
the Senate that body will have to choose between
the two highest candidates for Vice President. The
choice WILL therefore in all probability be between
HamlIn and either Lane, johnson, or Everett The
Senate is Democratic That body will certainly de-
eide against Hamlln; and it may be that Judge
Douglas, as a member of that body, will have the
privilege and the pleasure of voting for one of the
three last named against Hamlin, the candidate of
the black Republicans

A STATE CoSvENTION.-We presume it will be ne
cesSarv again to assemble the State Convention of
the Democratic party 1t is the opinion in this
ton of the State that such is necessary If
it be So the call should be made at early date
as poSsible-say in three or four weeks We pre-
sumo the same delegates could again attend; or, if
il be practicable, new delegates might be appointed
But the difficulty of getting up primary meetings
ut this busy season OF the year may be serious
obstacle. However the matter may he determined
upon, we feel authorized to say that the Democracy
of Rowan at least will be satisfied Of the neceSSi
ty Of Convention, however there can hardly be a
doubt. Our contemporaries and leading Democrats
should at speak out on this matter. We go for
the Convention on say Thursday the 10Th Of July
next -SdLisbury Banner.
We have in our possession a Recommendation to
the Executive State Committee, signed by eight Of
the delegates to the Baltimore Convention, that
Democratic State Convention be held "as soon as
practicable, for the purpose of harmonzing the &C.
ton of the party in the next Presidential election"
Nearly all the members of the delegation who have
been approached on the subject have signed the re-
commentator; and trust that those Of them
who have not signed it but who are disposed to do
So will authorize US at once to affix their signatures
to the paper.
Some action should and must be had to unite the
vote of the State against the Opposition. There is
no good Democrat in the State who does rot prefer
Douglas or Breckenridge to Lincoln and Bell. A
union ticket suggested elsewhere in our paper to-
day, would enable us to sweep the State, and thus
aid in the election of Breckenridge or Douglas by
the people, or in sending the election to the House.
We look to the Executive Committee, to the Elec-
tors themselves, or to a State Convention for some
authoritative recommendation which will enable the
Democracy of the State to present solid front to
their opponents.
We learn that in the absence of Mr.. Haywood,
the Chairman of the Committee, that member of the
Committee residing here, (Mr. Barringer) has very
properly written to the various members requesting
a meeting about the 9th of July. 1t has been sug-
gested that the best time for holding Convention,
provided it should be called would be the LIST of
September.
We may add, in support of our suggestion for
union ticket for the Presidency that in the Demo.
cratic meeting held in this City on Monday night
last, this plan was RECOMMENDED by Hon. D. M. Bar
ringer and Capt John Walker. We have explained
the operation of the proposed plan under the head
of "The Election of 1924" in our paper to-day.
