Union Meeting az OcracOcke. g.

The Westinghouse at Ocracocke,
in Hyde county, North Carolina, was
filled to its utmost capacity on Friday
night last (i9th inst.,) at least hun

obtain admittance.
Charles Henry Foster, Esq, of IIert-

Administration speech, and was fire.

hold in North Carolina, at Hatteras,
and when the Confederate gunboats
exercised complete and undisputed
control over the sounds. rivers, and
other inland waters of the eastern por-
ton of the State.
He also reminded his audience Of
the prediction he then made-less than
year previous the successful ad-
vance OF the United States forces upon
the main land of North Carolina, and
Of the assurances he gave them, that,
although then within the rebel lines,
and crushed under the Jeff. Davis des-
potism, they would speedily be disen-
thralled and restored to the protection
Of the Union. He congratulated them
that they were now free to speak and
act as loyal men. He called their at
tention to the fact that he had advised
them to make no premature demon.
stration Of their loyalty. and told them
he did not wish their votes; and that
he had carefully concealed the names
of Union men in the community, as
we'll as elsewhere in the State, so that
they might not be betrayed into any
trouble or danger. This he had done
too, at the risk Of being denounced as
an imposter at the North, in claiming
that there were Unionists in Nortl
Carolina, while forbearing to produce
these proofs.
This meeting will bring forth excel
lent results, and there is no doubt tina
two full companies Of Union Volun
teers will be raised and mustered from
the coast portion of Hyde county. Th'
patriotism of these men has the ring o

important as deem it, sir, to discuss, on

ures ut present pursued, it is still more im-

We presume if Mahoney had not been sus-
pected Of treason and arrested for it, the de-
mocracy of that district would never have
thought ofnominating hin for Congress-
Sentinel.
1t makes little difference VIII It the Sentinel
''presumes' in the matter. The legal pre-
sumpti' n is that Mr.. Mahony is innocent
until proven guilty. If guilty, we trust no
will be tried and punished according to law.
If entirely innocent his name and reputation
should be vlndica.ed. 1t seems that the loyal
democracy Of that Congressional district be-
lieve him innocent, and we would as soon ac-
ccpt their judgment upon the case as that Of
any one OF bis political enemies. No really
d.loyal man can be elected to Congress from
Iowa, or receive any great number of votes
so that real Y loyal men nocd not be alarmed
