Tuv BLuSDERBR-In all our experience as a pub:
T.. ourpaiist we have never known any candidate
hr oRce to blunder as Gov. Vance has done, and to
involve himself in so many contradictions and ab-
,rrdtie One of his latest blunders is the heading
b;s ticket as the Conservative" ticket This will
ds.sive no Conservative, for it is we'll known that
the Governor, deserted his party months ago, and
mined his fortunes with the DestructiVes; and it
will prevent Destructives from voting for him in
many instances, for an honest Destructive will feel
that in voting /" Conservative" ticket he is aban-
dOning his party. The Governor in this way blum
des between two stools and falls to the ground His
situation reminds US of Judge Halls remark to the
waiter at the hotel "Waiter," said he, "if this
be coffee fetch me tea and if it be tea fetch me
coffee"
P.S. Since the above was written we have seen
Vance tickets without the word i" Conservative" on
them. These tickets are intended for Destructives
Was there ever before such contemplate trickery

Conservatives will Rem ember,

That while we are now fighting to make good the
right of secession, President Davis and Governor
Vance say that if North. Carolina dare secede she
must be coerced, whipped back and subjugated--
We suppose there is not a man, woman Or child in
the State who wants to secede for the fruits of the
first experiment have been too bitter to repeat it,
but in case the people should attempt to exercise
such right-one that is clear and unmistakable-
the President makes tender of force to coerce and
subiugate them, and Governor Vance agrees to ac
cept the help and make war on his own people
Was ever such thing heard of before Secession
was all right when resorted to to break up the
government and plunge the country into horrible
war, but now we are told that if any State makes
a move to secede, our armies to turn from the
Yankees and make war on their own people. Presi-
dent Davis says If North Carolina tries to go out
he will furnish force to suppress public opinion and
coeIce her. and Gov. Vance says he will accept the
force and suppress this dangerous" move for
Convention and restrain the revolutionary ten
dency of public opinion" while Vice President
in peace" Neither Mr.. Holden or those who sup
port him desire to seoede or have ever dreamed Of
such thing, but they hold with Mr.. Stephens that
the general government would have no right to
make war on seeding State To do so is to es-
pouse the Lincoln doctrine, for the North is waging
the present war because they refuse to acknowledge
the right of secession. Lincoln fights US because
we seeded from him, and Davis and Vance would
fight US should we attempt to secede from them
Gov Vance is the only Executive on this continent
that has ever proposed to coeree his ewn State
Prooress.

Our forefathers fought for seven long years
against King George for the privilege OF voting
Our soldiers are fighting and suffering now for this
privilege. Argument persuasion, and even re-
mOnstrance by friend, are all allowable, and to be
expected; but beyond this no man and no public
officer can have right to go. The employer, the
Governor, the President or the officer who endea
to control the opinions of the citizens by force
who resorts to threats to carry the elections as
he wishes them to go, is 'tyrant and unfit to
breathe the air of free country. Let every cit.
zen vote as he pleases. This is all we ask. If our
elections are not Free then are we slaves already
and it matters little what may be the result of
conflict with Lincoln.
Go to the polls, fellow. citizens, and vote as you
please. Pay no attention to threats. The De-
structives with Gov. Vance at their head are certain
to be defeated and in that event officer will dare
attempt to punish you for the Independent exercise
of your right of suffrage, for he will know if he
does, his turn to be punished for his tyranny will
come next

a Go1ernment OF Terror.

The celebrated Tallien, during the French revo-
luton, describeda government Of terror in the fol-
lowing languages,
"Let us consider the means it employs before We
estimate its effects. A government can never in
spire terror but by menacing with capital punish
Inent; by menacing without intermsson, without
distinction, without investigation, all who oppose
it: by menAcing without proof, on mere suspicion,
on no ground at all; by striking continually with
relentless hand in order to inspire terror into all
the world. You must suspend over every action q
punishment over every word threat over silence
even a suspicion: you must place under every step
snare in every family a traitor, in every tribunal
an assassin: you must put every citizen to the tor
tnre, by the punishment of multitudes, and subse-
quent massacre of the executoners lest they should
become tOa powerful Such is the system ofgeEern-
ing by terror: does It belong to Free humane, and
regular government or to the worst species OF ty-
rannyP
These eloquent words, says the historian Alson'
produced great impression. Human nature is the
same in all countries and all ages. government
which relies for its support the fears of the peO
pie is as much to be deplored in America as in
France-nay more, for here, it has been our proud
boast heretofore thoughts Free and every man has
right to do as he pleases, provided he obeys the
laws and does not injure his neighbor. But alas |
alas ! we have threats and terror here also What
is to be the end of itf Let the war go on, and on

The Greensboro Patriot has been endeavoring
for some weeks to produce the impression that the
Editor of the Standard in former years abused the
people of Guford County, and even instigated mob
law against members of the Society of Friends
No charge couid be more unfounGed: We have al
ways entertained a sincere respect for the Society
of Friends. Gnlford County is behind no County
in the State in its industrial pursuits in its nelli
gence, and patriotism and public spirit. So far as
the Quakers are concerned, our votes in the Con.
vention as well as our course as an Edter, prove
that we are not uRfriendly to them Would that

q. Moore. E,u,

One Of the signs of the degeneracy of the times
is, that no individual, however retired from public
life, or however gifted, or however graced with tai
ent and virtue, escape the envenomed shafts Of
the partizans Of power. Neither youth nor age is
respected by these partizans They would even
descend into the grave to crafty their depraved ap
petite for sfander and defamation, and to please
those whose work they seem to do with as much
alacrity as if on each one of them there was q col
lar with this inscription Gurth, the born thrsll
of Cedric, the Saxon" Such characters abound
most in revolutions, just as, in freshets, decayed
and rotten wood rises to the surface.
These remarks have been suggested by the recent
attack in the Confederate, of this City, the 10y
atty of B. F. Moore, Esq, simply because Mr. Moore
deemed it his duty, on recent occasion, to appear
before Judge Sander counsel for several persons
supposed to belong to the red string party. We
shal! enter on no labored defence of Mr. Moore
against this charge AL his interests and all his
affections are with the South, of which he is na-
tive He has son now prisoner in the hands of
the enemy; and he has lost largely in negro prop
erty by the advance of the enemy into Mississippi
He has contributed literally Of his means in aid of
the soldiers in our hospitals and elsewhere, and We
kaoW that soldier never looks to him in vain for
relief when in distress. He is obedient to the laws
and prompt in paying his large taxes, both State
and Confederate. Can it be possible that such
man is a traitorf No. The charge is as false as
it is malicious and contemplate.
We would rather be B. F. Moore in rags than
any one of his malicious reVilers seated on throne
In the one case we should be poor and honest, aud
should have good name as an inhe1ible defender
of liberty when liberty needed defenders; IN the
other we should be proud, revengeful, wicked, un-
happy, and the enemy and Cppressor of our race
We do not know how Mr.. Moore will vote on
Thursday next We have not asked him any ques-
tions on the subject and we have not heard him
say. We trust he will vote as he pleases. We
know he will Let every other citizen Ego and do
likewise"
