A WARNING VOICE.
From the Fayetteville (N. o. Observe

From the Fayetteville IN. o. Observer.
We have reason to believe that the emil
nent citizen alluded to in the following
paragraph from the Raleigh COHIeTUdtiUe
is the Hon. Wm. A. Graham
"Perhaps it may not be out of place, and
we do not intend to violate confidence, to
allude to the views in private letter OF a
distinguished citizen of the State, whose
position entities him to the entire conf
dence of our people, and to none more
than to tbs confidence of the CoHseTUatiUeS.
The peace movements in our Legislature
he views with anxiety aud interest. The
present posture of our affairs, in his opinion,
requires the most delicate and cautious
action aud the wisest reserve. Improper
impressions upon the enemy. as we'll es
must be avoided"
Gov. Graham possesses the confidence
of the people of North Carolina, not only
of the party with which he has acted,
but Of all parties. The influence of his
clear head, calm temper and sound judg-
ment has heretofore been felt in every
position in which he has chosen to exert
them. 1t may not be improper now TO
say (since we saw 1t alluded to in q Rail
eigh paper)tha speech delivered by him
in one of the caucuses held during the
last legislature, SO effectually killed of
the miserable peace movements which at.
flicted and disgraced that period, that
they were never heard OF again.
Gov. G raham is now the same that
he was then-jealous of the honor of his
State and devoted to the cause of his coun'
try. We trust that his influence will not
less now than then with all who have that
be honor and that cause at heart, and that
the resolutions of Mr.. Pool, and even the
less Objectionable resolutions Of Mr.
Fowle, will be allowed to sleep the SLEEP
that knows no waking.

A Man whom Republicans Sup
pOrI.

Soon after one oil the most desperate and
sangu mary battles, Mr.. Lincoln visited the
Commanding General and the army While
on his visit, the commanding General with
his staff took him over the field in carriage
and explained to him the plan of ths battle,
and the particular places where the fight was
most fierce. At one point the Commanding
General said, Here on this side of this road,
FIVE hundred OF our brave fellows were killed,
and Just on the other side of the road four
hundred more were slain, and right on the
other side OF that wall five hundred rebels
we're destroyed. We buried them where they
fell" ~ declare, said the President "this
is getting gloomy. Let Us drive sway" AZ
ter driving few rods the President said
this makes feller feel gloomy" "Jack," :"
| (speakng 10 companion) cant you give us
something to cheer US up2 Give us song,
and give US lively one" Thereupon Jack
struck up as loud as he could bawl, a comic
negro song, which he continued to sing while
they were riding from the battle ground, and
until they approached regiment drawn up,
when the Commanding General said, "Mr,
President, wouldn't it be well for your friend
to cease his song till Ve have passed the reg.
iment The poor fellows have lost more than
half oftheir numbers. They are feeling very
badly, and should be afraid of the effect that
it may have on them" The President then
asked his companion TO stop his singing til
they got by that regiment.
We know that this story is incredible thai
it is impossible that man could ba elected
President OF the United States who could 3,
conduct himself over the fresh made grave
of the heroic dead. When this story was toll
4 US, we said that it was incredible, impossible
but the story is'told on such authority that vi
KNOW it to be true. We tell the story that tn
people may have some idea of this man, ,Abrs
u ham Lincoln, whois candidate for four year
8 more OF such rule. If any Republican hold
!, up his hands IN horror, and says this stor
can be true, we LympAthize with him frou
the bottom OF our SOUL the story can be tru
/, OF any man 6t for any Office or trust, or eve
e for decent society; but the story is every viii
a true of Abraham Lincoln, incredible and in
j, possible as it may seem. tL 80

Of Montgomery, Re-
member Next Tuesday.


A. the day Of election approaches, We
become more aud more impressed with the
magnitude and Importance of the issues
which it is to decide In addition TO the
bearing it win have upon local interests
and welfare, and upon the political com
plexion of the next House of Representa-
tiyes. its result will exert an immense in

Every man. therefore, who desires the
election Of Gen. McCLELLAN should bear
in mind. the Importance Of voting hrsi

elections. II Ohio is carried by the Re
publicans ON next Tuesday il viii be a
powerfully telling fact in their favor on
tbe sth of November. If, ON the other
hand, it is carried by the Democracy, as 1t
may be by a united effort, it will contri-
butte vastly TO the defeat OF ABRAHAM
LINCOLN, the loe Of Liberty and Of man.
Hence. as we would rid the country Of
LINCOLN, as we would rescue our glorious
constitution from the heel Of the usurper,
and as we would preserve the liberties
which our fathers bequeathed to us, let us
DO our whoie duty on Hsrt Tuesday! A
better or nobler cause than ours nevel
inspired the heart, or appealed to the ener
gies of man. 1t is the cause Of God, o
our country, and of our kind, and as W.
love that cause, let US labor honestly
earnestly, aud fearlessly in its behalf.
Our ticket, National, State, District ant
County is in every respect worthy OF on
warm and cordial support, and il eve
there was time in the history of on
country, when our duty was plain, pres
sing and imperative, that time is now
Life, Liberty and property are at stake
The issues are fairly made up. They
cannot be misunderstood by intelllgen
men. We are called upon to decide be
tween war, CONSUMPTION, death, debt, sor
row and desolation, on the one hand, AM
peace, liberty, safety, honor and prosperity
on the other. Shall we preserve ou

list.
Secessionism is a violation of the Con-
sttution or law making power by revolu-
ton. 1t is an effort to make the Consti-
tutional majority of the people succnmb
to the refractory minority.
ROBERT c. SoHENcK was the leader OF
the first and only movement Of this kind
ever made in Ohio. He was elected to
the Legislature of this State in ls4l, and
when he got there, found himself in a mi
nority. The majority proceeded to enact
a law which they were required to pass
under the Constitution of Ohio, to dis
trict the State for Congressional purposes
Mr.. ScHENcK and his associates, he being
the avowed leader Of the movement, IN
order TO frustrate the action of the major
ity, broke up the law making power OF the
State, by seeding from the Legislature in
a body. 1t was not pretended by any one
that such action was constitutional-it
was palpably revolutionary. 1t was so
regarded by JOIN BRoUGH who at that
time came to Dayton and held public
, discussion with Mr. SoHENCK before the
old Court House, and so denounced it.
