Extract from a letter dated Longs Mills,
Randolph, June 2Sth:
We held Union meeting on last Satur-
day, in this County, at Liberty, and nomina-
ted W. W. Holden as our first choice for
Governor. The resolutions will be forwar-
ded for publication Randolph will vote by
good majority for Holden, Dick, Settle or
Dockery, or any other true Union man."
Good for Randolph. MIR. Worth made
bad show there before, and We have no
doubt that he will do worse the second time
in his native County, among her trne Union
citizens. His recent appointments of seces-
sionists and latter-day war saints to Office,
will not do for the loyal atmosphere of old
Randolph.

one.yM of the crop of old times, can be
safely calculated on. The present price will
of course be sustained in the fall, and good
margin for increased rates.

A NIGHTINGALE CoLoNY.-One harmon
ious act the Emperor Macmillan has per-
formed, for it is reported that he has ordered
one thousand Nightingales to be collected
in Austria. and to be shipped this summer to
Mexico. If this immigration should prove
successful, during next summer, they will
emigrate to the Southern States, bordering
on the Gulf for the purposes of incubation,
and after abiding thro' the summer will re-
turn to Mexico for the winter So that we
lshall be benefited by nocturnal serenades
during the next sunny season. This will be
certainly an harmonious concert of action on
the part of our imperial neighbor. May he

ingales, singing around it all the night long

songster to the American Fauna

The Wilson NORTH Carolinian of the Both
ult., says, in an article in relation to supply
ing disabled soldiers with artificial limbs,
that limbs of an inferior quality are being
manufactured. and are likely to prove Of no
practical benefit whatever. While it exon
crates Gov Worth, it nevertheless thinks
that there is some fraud, by which an infe-
rior article is palmed off on the State.
We do not know what merit there is in the
Carolinmn's assertions; but it is certainly a
serious matter, and ought to be looked into.

towing appointments were made:

State Directors Isaac Ramsay and Wm
Murdoch, for Carteret; A. T. jenkins, G. C.
Clark and John D. Flanner, Craven; Lewis

noir; and Council Best, for Wayne.-Sen-
tinel
The following are the Directors appointed
on the Road by the Provisional Governor,
and now turned out by Gov. Worth:
CIR. Thomas, DIR. M. F. Arendell, E. R.
Stanly, R. W. King, Walter Dunn, ]. NJ.
Parrott, W. P. Grimsley, ]. L. Pennington.
Mr.. Thomas has made an excellent Presi-
| dent of this Road He found it in very re-
duced condition, and the Improvement he
has made on it in all respects, since it has
been in his hands, has been most marked
and gratifying. Gov. Worth has not thought
proper to re-appoint Mr.. Thomas State Di-
rector. The inference is that he does not
desire him to be continued as President. Mr..
Thomas, though he has made one of the best
Railroad Presidents the State has ever had,
is prescribed because he did not vote for
Jonathan Worth for Governor. The eight
Directors appointed by the Provisional Gov
ernor are loyal Union men. This can be
said of but few of those appointed by Gov.
Worth
The JEFF Davis traitors, headed by Gov.
Worth, have full sway in this State. How
long is this to continued Is this still the
Confederacy-" our beloved Confederacy ~
or is it the United States of America?
