81 Nix HoLDEN: The, campaign IN Granville COM
menced on last Mondsy, oonseq uently il has been
progressing only one week am glad to have it in
my power from what I can learn and have it from
the people themselves-to inform our brethren
throughout the State that the GransAie Democracy
is united and harmonious, and confident ~ glorious
victory on the LIST Thursday in August nett
We feared before the campaign commences That
the Oppositionists would have the advantage OF ds
in debate, as they had on their ticket two sbrewd
lawyers, and old and experienced speakers Messrs
Amis and Edwards. But fortunately Mr.. W. II. r.
jenkins was placed on our ticket, who possesses
such logical mind and powers of eloquence as to
keep those two gentlemen within their proper sphere
He celebrities every audience before whom he ap-
pears. have never witnessed the amount of en-
thusiasm which his speeches produce, especially
when his youth and inexperience are considered
Mr.. S. II. Cannady is also in his first campaign, and
is making argumentatiye and telling speeches. j.
N. Bullock and G. H. f. Taylor, Esquires, are also
doing good work in the cause Granville will do
her whole duty in the present contest. She will
send to the Legislature full anti-ad colorem dele
cation, and give John w. Ellis for Governor in
creased majority. A CITIZEN.

A Valuable PlOw.


We examined recently, in this City, pillow de-
signed and patented by j. H. Gooch, ESQ.,, of the
county of Granville, which appears to be admirably
adapted to the various purposes is intended to an
swer. 1t is combination pillow. By an arrange
ment of its various parts it forms cultivator sub
soil and part turning pillow, half mold-board and
complete turning plow; also, cotton scraper and
cotton sweep pillow. Mr.. Gooch whose judgment
in such matters is excellent claims that this pillow
can be made substitute for several separate plows
and that it will answer every purpose in the cult
walton of wheat oats, corn cotton, and tobacco. 1t
is simple in its construction, and can easily be
changed from one shape to another.
Mr.. Gooch is now manufacturing these plows at
Oxford, and will deliver them at Henderson Depot
without the cotton scraper and sweep, at 81 each;
and with the scraper and sweep at IS. This pillow
has been tried by many Of the leading farmers Of
Granville, who have given Mr.. Gooch the following
certificate:
ave the undersigned take pleasure in certifying
that we have been using Mr.. j. L. Gooch's Cultiva-
tor Flows for some time, and that we believe them
to be superior to any pows We have ever used, and
further certify that our lands produce much better
crops when cultivated with said plows than any
other"
These plows may be seen at the store Of Mr..
Towles, in this City.
