Governors Election.

The Richmond Enquirer having espoused the
cause OF Mr. Johnston in tais State, the Richmond.
hTamaner expresses the following views, and gives
the resolutions of she Wake meeting and Col
Vance,s letter: By whom Mr. Johnston was pro-
posed as compromise candidate we do Tot know.
one thing every body knows that all propositions
Oh compromise coming from conservatives have been
promptly rejected by the spells party, while the
conservatives dare not object to any proposition
coming from that party without mourning their
abuse and the charge that the conservatives wish to
stir up partizan strife. The conservatives must
yield everything to the Stallfederates, or be de-
nounced as partizans and traitors:-
"a sharp contest has been raised over the Office
of Governor of the State of North Carolina. the
election to fill which will be held on the first Thurs
day in August Colonel William Johnston has been
announced as candidate. A North Carolina paper
which is friendly to his election states his position
thus:
Colonel Johnston was an Old Line Wing and an
old Union man up to the failure of the Peace Con-
gress, when he became altra secessonist as some
men term it. He was proposed as compromise
candidate.
The other party have made their platform and Sc
lectcd Colonel q. B. Vance as their candidate.
paper describes his position thus:
we perceive with some regret, that few papers
in the State object to Colonel Vance because he was
not betore-breaktast secessionst. The objection,
it seems to us, is very uncharltable and absurd
one, when we remember that Colonel Vance not
only advocated eternal separation from the North as
soon as all hope of a fair and honorable compromise
failed, but calamity drew his sword and went forth
to meet the enemy.
1t is hardly necessary to aude particularly to the
platforms of the respective parties The platform
sent forth by the friends of Colonel Johnston
abounds in commonplace geEeralties and is nothing
more than the usual rlgnarole of toadyism and
sycophancy to these in power. The friends of Col
onel Vance, on the other hand, have the holiness
and independence to recognize the fact that there
are many wrong men in wrong places and declare in
favour OF reforming the administration of public
affairs, and placing better men in office" This
is the true doctrine.it is alone what will save us
and yet one that will always be met with the op-
position of old "party hacks. Disclaimng anything
like interference or dicaton on our part except so
far as the general interests of the Conederacy are
involved in the result and willing to rest the matter
with the judgment of those whom it Immediately
concerns, we cannot refrain, as co aborers in the
good work OF reformation in the administration of
our public affairs, from giving the platform of the
Vance ("relormed') party, and the modest and
admirable reply of Colonel Vance, accepting the
nomination rendered him."

We copy the above from the Register, for the in
formation of our numerous readers. We suppose
the British paper here has the same. The Contsd-
crate ticket! Confederate candidates!> These are
the candidates which the noparty partisans intend
running in opposition to the "People's Ticket"
What is meant by Confederate candidates? Are
not all the citizens of the Southern States Confed
crates? Our national government is styled Con-
fcderate-our army is called Confederate. What
then? Do they mean that they call upon North
Carolinians to vote for COL Johnston, not for a
State Governor, but Confederate Governor, and
are the office holders and partizans tired of having
a Peoples Governor? 1t looks very, much like it.
Again, do they ask the good people of Wake to
elect men. not to represent them in the Legislature
but the Confederate government? What else can
they mean? Tut, tut! Tired of the peoples ru-
ng-tired of State authority under the people, they
60 in for Confederate governors, Confederate sena-
tors Confederate everything, the sure road to
Office and place. Let the people beware! There is
much meaning in name, and often a double
meaning
. We have heard it said, since the above announce
ment was made, that Mr.. Clements has shown his
good sense by declining to be candidate on the
above ticket.

pears and peaches. Let our farmers get their dry
