The Richmond and Petersburg papers have pub :
lished with flourish Of trumpets, with the view Of
influencing the elections in this State the 4th in
slant, the following returns from the 18th regi-
ment -
North. Carolina Congressional Elsetions-1M
Army Vote.
BRANDY STATION, Oct 3O.-The North Carolina
troops in the army Of Northern Virginia voted yes
terd.y for members Of Congress. The result IS far
as heard from is as follows:
FIFTH DISTRICT.
The official vote of the 18th N. G. troops is Is
follows:
Companies and D, from Granville County
For Hon. A. Fl. Arlington, 80 votes; for Josiah
Turner, Conservative, none.
Companiss @, F and K, from Warren County
| For Arlington, Sc; Turner, none.
Company b, from Nash County-Arrington 10,
| deserters and one conscript
The voting in the regiment as far as heard from
is almost unanimously for Arlington.
| SECOND DISTRICT.
Company G, in the I'd District, gives Bridgers II
and Yelowley H.
! EIGHTH DISTRICT.
| Companies A and E voted As for Lander and
none for Ramsay, Conservative.
The goth N. c. regiment gave Lander sc, Ram
| say 3, Stansll l.
| Admitting the above returns to be correct they
make but meagre showing for Mr. Arlington. Six
companies give him but 1Ol votes and it will be seen
below that one company at Topsail Sound in this
State, has given Capt Turner 1Os votes. Besides,
these companies are for the most part composed of
original secessionists and their officers nearly all
Of that stamp The 18th regiment, it will be re-
membered, was mainly raised in Nash and Warren,
where Mr.. Arlington has numerous friends; and in
addition to this it has been differed to large
tent by Mr. Arrington's relatives. We think it more
than probable that Mr.. Arlington has half As many
nephews and cousins in this regiment he received
| votes But it seems that five deserters and one
conscrlpt voted for Turner. If this be 50. the de-
serters. must be portion Of those who were
down and caught by bloodhounds in Mr.. Arrin g!ons
own County, and they availed themselves of this
opportunity to testify their appreciation Of such
treatment by voting against Mr.. Arlington. So far
as the ungenerous fling at conscripts is concerned
it must be borne in mind that all our troops, with
the exception of the State troops for the war, are
conscripts A conscript if he does his duty, is IS
good as any other SOLDIER and it is mean, ungene'
rous and injurious to the service to single out con-
scripts and reflect upon them in this way. con-
script who remained at home until he called for,
and then went in and has performed his duty as q
soldier, is . shining and noble patriot when COM
pared to those of Mr.. Arrington's friends at home
who are skulking in all conceivable ways from fight
ing in the war which they were instrumental in
bringing on.
