Important from Washington-Changes

Important from Misunderstanding
In the Cabinet.
Attorney General Speed sent in his resigna'
ton to the President yesterday. II il said that
Mr.. Stansbury, an able lawyer Of Ohio, and
formerly Attorney General of that State, or Mr..
Browning, formerly United States Senator from
Ohio, will take Mr.. Speeds place. Both these
gentlemen were wings In former times, have no
afiliation with the copperheads, and are
talented and conservative men.
The following is Mr.. Speeds letter Of resig-
nation, which may be called short and sweet
ATTORNEY GuxnAL,s Oyuz !
WASHINGTON, July 10, 1865
To his Excelency ANDREW JOHNSON, President OF the
United States
sR-I hereby resign to you tho ONCE or Attorney
General OF the United States Be good enough, sir TO
accept my thanks for the Kindness consideration and
confidence you have ever shown to me- have tho
honor to be, most respectfully, JAMES SPEED.
1t is positively stated that Mr.. Seward will
also tender his resignation, but that he may be
requested to remain. Thus we see the tide Of
revolution In the government at Washington
has fairly set in. Stanton il rather slow to re-
sign, clinging to Office like lsech, but he
must 60. The issue between the President ana

dunn course now. Mr.. Johnson has been
long embarrassed by his Cabinet, but will
now be relieved. Perhaps it would be better
If there were an entirely new Cabinet, although
Mr.. Seward has in his letter fully endorsed the
policy Of the President. Mr.. johnson, how
ever, knows best what to do in the matter. 1t
is certain the Cabinet hereafter will be unit as
to the course of the administration. The issue
of the Presidents policy Of restoration or dis
union is now before the people. Deception is
no longer possible The approaching Con-
gressional elections will decide whether we
are to have peace and harmony or disunion
and continued trouble under the Jacobin rule
of the radicals.

bat il Is in fact the party Of disunion, since Il
excludes eleven States from representation in
Congress. The Philadelphia Convention, II
party, and 10 designed to supersede 1t by .
new national party, really devoted to the
Union. Mr. Raymond knows this very well,
and il he is not prepared to 60 into the con-
vention with this understanding he must re-
main out of il altogether. He is accus-
toned to being on the fence, but he must
comprehend the impossibility Of being on
both sides at the same time. All the
circumstances considered, we hold that
the original report Of Mr.. Raymond's remarks
was correct If the reporter was hidden
under bench he must have heard what Mr..
Raymond said and if the report was made up
from the conversation Of radicals who we're at
the caucus, then they must have understood
Mr.. Raymond just as we reported him. In the
original versions Mr.. Raymond was made to
promise that he would not sustain the conven-
ton any longer in his paper, which had pre-
viously been lauding it to the skies. Since
then not q single article has appeared in Mr..
Raymond's organ favoring the convention.
Upon circumstantial evidence like this many
man has been hang, and 1t Is certainly sufi-
cient to determine the accuracy Of q newspaper
report and hang politician. Mr.. Raymond is
like several other so-called conservative Con-
gressmen. He may not talk like the radicals,
but he always votes with them upon vital
issues, except when his vote is unnecessary.
For this reason he must share their ignominy;
and we hope that none of them will be spared
at the coming elections

ertheless abolition; and that for the evils
growing out of emancipation we are not in
any way responsible and having had but few
slaves, are comparatively exempt from the
evils affecting the other sections, yet our

The Jujube Tree.

We saw the other day, the fruit of the
Jujube Tree Rhamnus Zizyphus). 1t is ches-
nut brown, and about the size of a small
plum, and has dry, pleasant agreeable taste
The pit is hard like the date seed, of similar
size but pointed at each end.
This is the fruit used in pectoral deeeeti0ns,
and to make the true Jujube Paste eff COM
merce. Though Brande says that the Jujube
paste of London is now manufactured in
that city, from Gum-arabic and sugar slightly
colored.
The Jujube tree stands the climate of
North Carolina very well. The two shrubs
or small trees of our neighbours are about ten
feet in height, and are growing out in the
. open garden, and are filed with Juiube
plums just ripening. 1t resembles young
: honey pod locust in foliage bot more glossy
! in the leaf. The tree blooms late and is moi
injured by the cold nights of Spring, when
the peach, pear, apple and plum that bud
sooner, are killed in the bloom, or shortly
thereafter, by the April frosts The fruit
ripens in September, and was curiosity tt

THE yellow WHO CRIED NEW Or.
LEANs."-The President, during his tour, has
been subjected while addressing crowds to
some insults and many Interruptions This
was to have been expected from the " unter-
rifed democracy" of the Northwest. But
in every instance the President stood his
ground, and gave them as good as they sent.
The Richmond Enquirer thus sketches one
of these scenes:
"At Norwich he was enthusiastically re-
ceived, but was also coarsely insulted. While
speaking his voice was drawned by cries OF
Farragut" and "New Orleans" There
was great uproar and confusion. In answer
to an insulting remark from the crowd, the
President said:
should like to see that fellow who cries
New Orleans"
Cries of 6 Here he is" and bilious, cada-
verous, brazen, wall-eyed, red-headed OBJ
ject, of the lower stratum of mankind, was
showed forward by the crowd, and answered
with an impudent stare the searching look of
the President.
Mr.. Johnson-"Ah, there you are! ]
thought you would look just about So"
The mobocratic element was again ram
pant, and their rage was allowed its vocal
outpouring, while Mr.. johnson smilingly re-
ceived the manual and floral congratulations
of his friends"

Public Meeting in WiIkesboro,.

Pursuant to a previous notice a large and
respectable portion of the Union citizens of
Wilkes County assembled at the Court house,
| in Wilkesboro' on Saturday the 1st day of
September, 1866, for the purpose of nomina-
ting Union candidates for the next Legis-
lature.
On motion, s. P. Smith, Sen., was ap-
pointed Chairman, and Geo. 81. Brown and
II. Hays, Secretaries.
The Chairman in brief and appropriate
manner explained the object of the meeting;
whereupon the following candidates were
nominated by reclamation.
For the Senate (the 45th Senatorial Dis
trict comprising the counties ofIredell, Alex
ander and Wilkes0 CALVIN ]. CowLEs.
For the House of Commons, S. P. SMITH,
Sem, and Capt, JOHN Q. A. BRYAN.
Then, on motion the Chairman appointed
a committee of four, to wit, VIM. Walker,
r. M. Smith, G. S. Smoot and John F. Par
lier, to prepare resolutions for the meeting.
During the absence of the committee the
nominees being loudly called for respon-
| ded in handsome and patriotic addresses to
the meeting, each of them accepting the
nomination.
The committee returned and reported
through their Chairman, VIM. Walker, the
following preamble and resolutions:
! WHEREAS Divers good and true men have
been mentioned as suitable persons to rep
resent the 45th Senatorial District in the next
Legislature and it being desirable to har-
monte, conciiate, and unite upon the best;
Therefore, be it
1. Reso1oed, That we propose to the Coun
ties of Iredell and Alexander that they meet
US in Convention at Taylorsville, N. @. the
18th inst, for the purpose of consultation
and advisement on, and nomination Of
Union candidate to represent the district in
the next Legislature.
2. Resol0ed further, That the Chairman of
this meeting appoint six delegates to repre-
sent this County in said Convention, and
that they present the nominee of this meet
ing, to wit, G. j. Cowles and urge his claims
on the ground that we are entitled to the
member, inasmuch as each of the other coun-
ties have been represented since we have
been, but we will not insist on our rights in
the matter, but we will accept any good
Union man.
g. -Resoloed further, That we recognize as
friends and co-workers all who ardently de-
sire the establishment of the government,
disregarding old party names and former ties,
and look with distrust upon all who would
} hinder and delay the good work. With res
toration comes law, with law peace, with

! IF Gov. Worth, the Sentinel, and the people
sof the Newbern District, had been really in
favor of the Presidents plan, they would
/ have elected him to Congress last November,
| for he is not only qualified by his talents for
the place, but he can take the test oath. That
was one of the reasons why he was defeated;
| and this is the reason-if reason it can be
called-why the Sentinel sneers at him as a
Yankee" There are yankees" in TINS
State, as in all the Southern States. who SO
| far forgot their blood and the homes of their
kindred, as to engage in war against their
own brethren, and who manage to acquire
popularity by denouncing Yankees and
the Northern people as f1ippantly as does
the Sentinel; and for these people the Senti-
mel always has smile and good word.
They are not yankees" They are adop-
ted citizens -" good Confederates." We
profess to be american citizens. 1t makes no
difference with us where a man was born, if
| he possess good principles, and if his conduct
| is upright and honorable. The blood spilled
in so many rivulets during the rebellion
should have washed out these offensive un-
natural distinctions. 1t should have made
us all the sons of WASHINGTON. The sum of
| the matter is, there are mean Yankees and
there are mean Southern men there are good
Yankees, and there are good Southern
| men.
No citizen who wishes well to his country,
or who desires to see the Union restored on
the basis of a common brotherhood, will
make these distinction between the North and
South, or do anything to increase the bitter
ness which already exists. There is no hope
for the country but in the cultivation of an
elevated, all-pervading spirit of nationality.

A singular spectacle has been presented in
Philadelphia. The Northern Radicals are
trying to restrain their Southern brethren on
the question of negro suffrage. At meet
ing of Northern Governors, it was resolved
that it would not do to go beyond the Con-
gressional platform, for the present. They
said their people were not prepared for the
negro suffrage platform, and would not sus-
tain it.-Riclm0nG Enquirer.

Mr.. MoOre,s Letter.

We publish to-day letter from Hon. B.
F. Moore, of Raleigh, addressed to his con-
stituents, the people of Wake County, and
through them to the people of the State, in
reply to the recent letter of Ex-Chief Justice
Ruffin, and in vindication of the powers
and validity of the late State Convention.
We shall not attempt to add any thing to
what Mr.. Moore has said. His letter is in
his best style, and must be regarded as con-
elusive as to all the points discussed.
The letter of Judge Ruffin, to which Mr.
Moore has replied, has been productive of
great mischief in this State. Even if the
assumptions in the letter were correct, they
ought not to have been made, especially at
such time and by such man as Ex-Chief
Justice Ruffin.
Judge Rutfin has gone further in the asser-
tion of radical and revolutionary views, than
the Congressional committee on reconstruc-
ton. That committee has expressly forborne
to disturb the work of the President in the
recently insurgent States, but has simply in
sisted, in the proposed constitutional amend
ment, that the substance of what the Presi-
dent has required the States to do, by ordi-
nance or in their amended Constitutions,
shall be accepted by them as part of the
federal Constitution. But Judge Rutfin
would rip up every thing, and launch the
State once more on the wide sea of revolu-
ton and anarchy. We regret to believe that
Gov. Worth and the great body of his par
tizans sympathize with Judge Ruffn in
these views.

The secessionists, who involved the coun--
try in war, forced the South to continue the
fight until we were subjugated. The Presi-
dent then presented a plan of restoration,
and the seeessionists prevented the people
from carrying out this plan in good faith.
The Congress then presented series of Con-
stitutional amendments, which that body de-
clares must be adopted before restoration
can be effected And the question now is,
