We tel the people ofthis State that we have rea
son to believe that the sunion leaders of both par
ties are already parccng out the Offices under the
new order of things which they are seeking to es-
2 tablish. The lust for office under new forms has
much to do in exciting and pushing forward the dis
union movement The Southern States, it seems,
are to be consulted but no demand is to be made
the North to do us justice. sas, a..
We appeal to the people of the State to hold meet
ings and rebuke these calculations and these dis
union schemes. Rouse up, We men of the State of
all classes and all parties, and take the affairs of
your own government into your own hands. Rouse
up, move, and you will find speakers and leaders,
So FAR as the Democratic party is concerned it must
be purged of its disunon elements, whether the
State shall stay in go out of the Union. must
be delivered from the influence of timeServers and
office,hunters, and the "Old Guard" who stood by
Jackson and who elected Reid, must be restored to
full standing and influence. We must commence
where we did in 1S4S, and fight uphill until we
again triumph against foes both inside and outside
the party. We must give no quarters now or here
after 10 the disunionists
God save the people from such men Yancey
and Keitt and their followers! God save the State
of North Carolina, whether she be right whether
she be wrong, but may she always be right! God
save the Union of the States according to the Con-
stitution! God save the banner of the stars and
stripes radiant with the lustre of an hundred battle
fields. When in 1882, the Hon. Joel r, Poinsett,
of SouthCarolna, was Minister to Mexico, in the
midst Of one of those revolutions which have afflict
ed the people of that Republic and when the flags
of all other countries had waved in vain symbols
of protection to good men, and women and children
against the vengeance ofsanguinary mobs that ban
ner Of the stars and stripes unfurled above the
residence of Mr. Poinsett and hthcr the threatened
and hunted victims of civil war fed for succor.-
That flag waved not in vain. 1t was at once and
universally respected. Those who stood under it
and looked up to it lived and they learned to love it
with renewed ardor as the symbol of the power
majesty and glory of united North America. And
during the late with Mexico, the regiment Of
South Carolina advancing under murderous
fire upon of the Mexican Notifications, and when
FELL dead like wheat before the scythe the gal
LIANT IriShman who bore the American banner was
wounded and apparently disabled. Struggling TO
his feet however he dashed that banner to his body
and bore it bravely through the storm Of battle
We repeat, that flag has never waved but for the
protection Of South Carolina But she has Danish
ed it "far down the bay" and has planted in its
stead the emblem Of disunion and discord God
her people from the calamities of disunion and
from the burning disgrace Of dependence on foreign
powers!

The Kansas Troubles.

New YORK, Nov. 22.-The New York papers pub
lish dispatch from Warsaw, Mo-, stating that a
handbll had been circulated there calling the cti
zens to arms to arrest the raid and outlaw, Mont
gomery and cut the threats of him and his follow
ers. A meeting had been held and resolution adj
opted calling the President for assistance. The
Governor of Missouri had taken prompt steps to
protect the citizens of Kansas and the border A
meeting was held at Leavenworth, and resolutions
adopted calling on Gov. Menary to enforce the
law and establish order
The latest advices from Kansas City state that
DR.. Mossey who left Fort Scott on Tuesday, reports
that the statement in regard to the burning of the
town was untrue Five men had been murdered by
Montgomery, and others captured were probably
killed
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-The administration re-
ceved some additional intelligence to-day from Kan
sas, showing that Montgomery was continuing his
raid, sezing property of the government well as
private property, and converting it TO his own
All the necessary steps have been taken by the
administration to bring this notorious bandit to SUBJ

An ITnnrnvnknd Affnck.

The last Wilmington Journal noticing the pre-
sentaton to the Legislature of the Wilmington
oluton, says:
Neither gentleman mfr. Hill and Mr.. Shaw, en-
tered into an argument upon the merits of the res
olutonS it being understood that all such argument
would be reserved for the time when the report Of
the joint committee on Federal Relations would put
the matter fairly before the Legislature. Such re-
ticence suited not the Hon. Bedford Brown, who
arose and pitched into them, delivering somewhat
peevsh speech, going for submission. Is Mr.. Brown
sore.
Mr. Clingman has received the caucus nomination
for Senator"
We repel at once this assault upon the motives of
COL Brown, made as it is by disunionist and con-
idential friend of Gov. Ellis. We believe that the
Senator from Caswell is actuated in his course on
the grave questions now before the country by the
highest and most patriotic motives. He is not a
subnisSionist, but would spring promptly and as
boldly any man to the defence of his natirc State
A statesman who stood by Madison and the war of
1912, who was the confidential friend OF Andrew
Jackson, who has always been true to the federal
Constitution and the rights of the South, and whose
history for the last fortyfve years is part of the
history of the State is assaed and maligned because
he refuses to subscribe to the programme of DIS
union.
Col. Brown occupies the same position now which
he occupied as friend of Mr.. Breckenridge in the
late campaign. He was opposed to disunion then,
and he is opposed to it now, but he is not submis
sonist
In 1910 Col Brown resigned his seat in the Unit
ed States Senate under resolutions of pass
ed by Wing Legislature; and such was the conf
dence reposcd in him by Gen. Jackson, and such
was his desire to see him again in public life that
he addressed letter to prominent citizen Of this
State strongly urging Col Browns reelection to the
Senate. This is the man. brother Democrats, who
is assaulted and maligned by the Wilmington Jour
nal

DEAR SIR: As there seems to be great diversity
of opinion as to what North Carolina ought TO do
under existing circumstances, hope you will allow
me to suggest to the Legislature and the people of
the State, the course which l think ought to be
adopted.
In the first place, think the Legislature ought to
pass law for the immediate reorganization Of the
militia
In the second place, think the Legislature ought
to pass law apprOpriating sum sufficient to arm
all the volunteer companies and the militia with the
most improved arms and the very best munitions of
war; to place the State in the most thorough
and perfect condition of defence
In the third place, the people of the State ought
to declare in the most explicit and unqualified
terms their determination to protect the honor Of
the State and defend the rights Of the citizens of
North Carolina
In the fourth place. they ought to assert, in Ian
guage which cannot be misunderstood their sole
right ojudge in thelast resort naction Their
Constitutional rights, and the mode and measure Of
redress.
In the fifth place. North Carolina ought to stand
ready to resist the administration of the General
Government upon black Republican principles, and
to resist any attempt that may be made to coerce
any State into the Union that may secede for causes
satisfactory to herself
These are my views, Mr.. Editor, and l hope you
will concur in them.

1t will I've seen the Governor has failed to say any
thing in his message in regard to the Judiciary; be-
cause, as we suppose the recommendations of his
predecessors heretofore had no effect But we can
hardly suppose the present Legislature fail to do
something in the matter What possible advantage
can it be to the public to require the three Eastern
Judges TO ride six or eight hundred miles to reach
the first Court IN the Western Circuit, and to be alb
sent four months from home? The least, we think,
that can be DONE would be to add another Circuit,
divide the State into two divisions and assign four
Judges to each. This would add but little to the
expense, the eight terms over twelve, for which
they are paid, amounts to Sl,440, nearly equal TO
the salary of the Judge. The Railroads have facili
taed the trouble of travel but have not esscned the
expenses. 1t is twenty-four years since the
present rates of compensation were fixed by law !;
since which time the expense in travel alone has
increased more than % per cent The thing is so
palpably unjust, we hazard nothing in saying this
change would meet with public sanction.

Hunter-honored and beloved for the answering

and usagcs of our ancient and honorable fraternity,
and the uprightness and integrity that has ever
characterized his long and useful life:
ResoLced, That in the death of our brother the
community has lost good citizen and kind neigh
Dor, and our Lodge true Mason.
ResoicCd, That while we bow with submission to
the affecting dispensation of Divine providence,

Hon. Bedford Brown.

We did not have the pleasure of hearing him, but
We understand the Hon. Bedford Brown of Caswell
made an eloquent appeal in the Senate on Friday
last in behalf of Constitutional Union. Mr.
Brown is opposed to disunion for existing causes
He is ready to give Mr.. Lincoln trial. elected as he
has been according to the forms of the Constitutions
and he is opposed to any measures at this time
designed calculated to precptate this State into
revolution and civil war. He is not prepared, as a
disciple of Jefferson Madison, and Jackson, to de-
stroy our noble framework of government because
portion of it is out of order and may work badly
On the contrary he would labor to repair the ma
chinery and thus preseryeit. This is true Democra
cy. While he insisted upon the reserved rights Of
the States and maintained their right in the last
sort to discover their relations with government
which had violated the Constitution, yet he not
prepared for existing causes to dissever those rea
tons, nor did he believe that sufficient cause was
likely to arise. If it should, he would meet it
firmly and would act with promptness and decision.
He relied upon the "sober second-thought" of the
people, which was seldom wrong and always eff
Gent And we beg leave to say for ourself, that
those who are unwilling to trust to the "sober
secondthought" of the people, but who would
kindly take care Of the people by hurrying them
into destructive measures, not Democratic
Republicans, but oligarchs and enemies of the peo-
pie and their rights. ..
Col Browns remarks produced profound sensa-
ton The friends of law and order and of a Con-
stitutional Union were animated and encouraged,
while the fire-eaters were surprised and startled
We trust the Senate and the country will hear from
Col. Brown at length when the report from the
committee on federal relations shall up for dis
cussions.

we had electioncered at ALL or had even appealed to

B@ The question of the Constitutional rights of
the South and the preservation of the Union has
nothing to do with party 1t is above party. 1t
concerns every man, woman and child in the State.
This has been our view Of the question from the
first, and it is view STILL When the battle shall
be fought for Southern rights if fought it must be,
one soldier will not ask another whether he belongs
to the Democratic or to the Opposition party, but
how much ammunition he has, and how many of the
enemy he has slain. Let us then, discard party on
this momentous question, and stand as one man for
a Constitutional Union and for the vital interests
and the honor of North Carolina.
