MEETING OF THE CITIZENS OF
CODDLE CREEK

The citizens Of Coddle Greek and surrounding
community met at Coddle Greek Church, Iredell
county, N. c., on the 1st of June. Mr. Thomas
Hamilton was called to the Chair, and J. s. Beatty
and j. u. Witherspoon were requested to act as
Secretaries.
The meeting opened with prayer by Rev
John +. Pressly, and the object of he-fneeting
explained by MIR Mellon, on whose notion com
mittee of five, namely: Messrs Mellon Beatty, w
Smith, NJ Cannon, and Nat. Johnson ST. were
appointed to draft resolutions for the consideration
of the meeting During the absence of the com
mittee the meeting entertained with practical
speeches from Capt. Sloan, Rev. Mr. Pressy and
Mr. Flemmng, which were evidently Of good effect.
The committee returned and submitted the follow
ing preamble and resolutions, which were consider
ed separately and unanimously adopted:@
Whereas, we the people and citizens of the
neighborhood of Coddle Greek, are of opinion and
do believe most earnestly that the slave population
Of said section do enjoy and use liberty than
is compatible with their condition as slaves, and
in violation of the law Of the State of North Caro-
lima, and in conflict with the peace, harmony, and
social happiness Of the COMMUNICATIVE being
clearly shown by their strolng about night con-
tinually without the knowledge of their owners,
and by their naughty, nsolent and unmannerly
conduct in going to and returning from the SER
vices of the Church on the Lords day, therefore,
Resolved, That VIC will as community Of pa
triots christians and gentlemen do our best to exc
cute the laws of the land as they between and
pertaining to master aud servant, in good faith and
with certainty.
Resolved, That each slave-owner will consider
himself patrol on his own premises, and act as
such in good faith.
Resolved, That we will not permit knowingly,
any slave or slaves to visit our negro houses or
farms between shutdown aud sunrise, without
written permit from their owner owners.
Resolved, That it is opinion that the officers
of the several churches in this vicinity ought to
appoint committee OF one or more persons to see
that the slave population properly demean and be-
have themselves while they at church, and
that they leave the same place Of worship in due
time.
Resolved, That we as good and law-abdng citi-
zens will discountenance and prohibit far as in
us lies, the gathering together of slaves on the
road at our negro houses in going TO or return
ing from church on the Lords day.
Resolved That we hold as enemies to the laws
Of the State and the welfare Of civil society, all
persons who will oppose the carrying out Of the
foregoing preamble and resolutions.
On motion, it ordered that the proceedings
be published in some paper circulating in this
community, with the request that all others friend
ly to the copy. The meeting then adjourned
with prayer by Mr. Flemmng

GOVERNOR ELLIs.-WHY SHOULD He NOT RE-
Re- ELECTED What has Governor Ellis done
or what has he left undone, that he should not no.
reelected to the position which he now so wortbiv
occupies? What duty has he neglected? To what
section or interest has he proved unfaithful? In
what respect have the interests or the credit Of
North Carolina suffered under the present Demo.
cratic Administration of her affairs or finances
These would be questions which it would be hard
for the opponents of Gov Ellis of the Democratic
party to answer. If they speak candidly, his most
bitter opponents must give him credit for faithful
and able discharge of his official duties. Then,
why this ''wid hunt" for his defeat and exter
mnaton, save for party purposes--for party ends
to operate upon subsequent elections? Will the
people of the State generally-the Democratic
people in partcular-suffer true and tried public
servant to be sacrificed suit any such combination
to promote any such ends? Justice and fair dealing
alike forbid it? Come out and support ELLIS and
the Democratic Legislative tickets in the several
counties! Let every Democrat do his duty, and
the cause will be safe.

The Commencement Exercises OF this 1nstltu-

Mr Miller, formerly pastor OF the Presbyterian
church at Charlotte, was expected to preach the

was rendered by DIR. Lacy, President of the Col
lege. 1t took place the magnificent chapel OF
the new College building, room 81 feet square;
with seats enough to accommodate l00O persons.
If We were to characterize the sermon we would
say it in all respects fitting the occasion, the
high reputation of it's author, his age and his posi-
tion in the College,
Wednesday morning the representatives OF the
Eumenean Society occupied the rostrum. J J
Stringfellow, Chester, delivered the Valedictory;

ty Diplomas presented by 0 A Wylie, of Chester,
S. c.
The first thing in the afternoon was the Annual

was an elegant piece of composition, enriched with
many sparkling gem, and spiced with several
penetrating witticisns
Then followed another Valedictory Address and
Response, this time from members of the Philan-
thropic Society-P W Hattrick, of Guford, and
J FL Gouger, of Davidson, being the representa-
tives. Diplomas presented by G P Erwin, of
Morganton.
The Anniversary Address, by Rev W Hall, of
5. C., closed the exercises of the day. This was
also well conceived and able address
