To the Ladies of Raleigh:
COMRADES: hardly know who is to blame for
my not turning out with you the day of the pre-
sentation Of the banner. l had been waiting impa-
tiently for that glorious hour from the time heard
the banner would be presented by the ladies of Ra-
leigh to our corps, so that might take part in the
celebration but at last missed it by not being no.
titled 1t is true that our Captain told me on Mon
day that Friday is the day." but at the same time
he said that the company would have meeting
that night and the presentation of the banner might
be postponed to another time. My request was to
let me know when they would turn out, but that
was the last and never heard of it till Friday
ming, after the banner was presented. But howev-
er, let it go SOL shall see it before long.
Now, to you, Ladies: By some misunderstanding,
l had no chance to see your gift; but it seems to
me the time is approaching when will be found to-
gether under your banner, and then will look on,
and stand by that precious gift As an old veteran
and true adopted son of North Carolina as one
who in his early age stood in front of the murder
Gus fire. he pledges his honor to you, daughters of
the brave that he will stand once more in his ad-
vancing age, in defence of you and Southern rights
No, no! don't you think that you will ever lose
your banner which you have entrusted to our hands,
We will defend it until every soldier of the o. c. Gs
is cut down under it the field of battle and the
Last drop of the old veterans blood sinks into the
ground, rather than let our enemies have it.
Old veteran,

Let all true friends of the gallant Douglas vote
for Breckenridge. 1t is thus they best promote
the election of the great Iinosan and fight at the
same time in the sacred cause of Democracy. Here
is the proof.
No man but Lincoln stands any chance of pop
uar election. Should he receive q majority of the
electoral votes then there is an end of the matter
But suppose he should not receive this majority
Then he will undoubtedly 60 to the House; and
only the tpo meet highest Of the other three candi-
dates can go there with him.. Who will be those
two-who shall they be? Breckenridge will certain
ly be one of them. Norman who is well acquainted
with the political feelings Of the Countrywide reads
the newspapers of all parties and is able to discern
truth from faisehood can doubt that he will carry
Texas, Florida, Alabama, Louisiana Mississippi,
Arkansas Georgia and SOUTH Carolina, and at least
half of the other Southern States. The contest as
to the third man will be between Douglas and Bell.
The true friends of Douglas should vote to de-
crease as much as possible the number of Southern
electors for Bell Should they give the electoral
vote of North Carolina to Breckenridge, they will
but swell the vote of rival who is sure to 60 to the
House, either with or without said vote and conse-
quently would do Douglas no harm. But if by d.
vision among ourselves we give Bell this vote, we
thereby set him ten ahead of Douglas in the race
for the House.
Let the Douglas men ponder over these facts, and
temper their zeal for their gallant cbieain with dis
cretion If be gets to the Honse he will be Presi-
dent. He is the only man upon whom all of the
conservative forces there can centre.

The Result Of the late Elections, and the Pros.
~ poets in the Future
Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana have gone By
large majorities against the national cause Black
Republicanism appears to have gained in all these
States. Judge Douglas has recently been stumping
in Ohio and Indiana, and in bis speeches he claimed
both these States as Democratic. The result shows
that he was mistaken. Ohio he claimed with grea.
confidence, but Ohio has fallen still deeper into the
mire Of sectionalism. Indiana has been Democrat
&c State Her majorities for the Democracy have
heretofore ranged from eight to fifteen thousand
and Pennsylvania it is we'll known, rolled back the
tide of sectionasm in 1885, and saved the country.
Some Of our Northern exchanges state that the
fusion between the conservatives in Pennsylvania
was by no means complete. They say it was hardly
possible, in the first place. to unite the foreign ee-
ment in the Democratic vote with the Bell Ameri-
cans and that in the second place, the antagonism
between the Breckenridge and Douglas men, though
to some extent repressed was nevertheless more or
less intense it is in all the States thus rendering
a cordial union even between the Democrats them
selves impracticable In addition to this Forney's
Press, while protesting to support Douglas really
played into the hands of the black Republicans; and
to this influence, thus welded by one Of the most
unprinciped politicians in the country, we may at
tribute the loss of thousands of votes to the fusion
ticket in Pennsylvania. ,
But what of November? How will these States
vote in the Presidential electon9 The black Re-
publican journals are exultant over recent results
and confidently claim all three of them for Lincoln
The New York Herald though it still INDUCES hopes
that New York may save the country, nevertheless
despars so far as aid from Ohio, Indiana and Penn
sylvania are concerned. New Jersey will 60 with
Pennsylvania and all the northwestern States Him
ois included will most probably 60 with Indiana
and Ohio for Lincoln. Therefore, if New York
should vote for Lincoln. Lincoln will be elected
This seems certain. All eyes are, therefore, turned
to New York. The conservatives in that State have
the strength to defeat Lincoln, but it remains to be
seen whether they unite their forces to
complish this result We confess We have our fears
City New York State is decidedly more black Re
publican than Pennsylvania or Indiana. Seward
claims the State by sixty thousand majority.
We confess that the chances are in favor of Lin
coin. The prospect now is that he will be elected
by the people. Things may take different turn
for hope that they will However, we will continue
to look at the bright side of the picture as long
we can. The country has been in perils heretofore
and for one we will "never despair of the Repub
lie"
