The tri-weekly standard. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1866-1868, 1866-11-01
Members of the Legislature.

third Monday of this month. The list is not
quite complete.
1t is impossible to classify the members
politically. But little interest was felt in the
election. In many Counties members were
elected without opposition, by small votes
| In some Counties those candidates who har-
angued most bitterly against the Northern
people received the largest votes; and In
some Counties, candidates who were most de-
voted to the Union got the largest votes, and
those hostile to it received the smallest
One noticeable feature in the returns is, the
small number of original secessionists cleo
ted This proves that the latter-day war
men, once Union men, but who would fight
the war out to the bitter end with full
knowledge that they would be defeated, ale
disposed to use the seceders when they want
votes for themselves, but will not honestly
share with them the spoils of office.
We do not know, but we suppose there are
not more than twenty or thirty out of the
one hundred and seventy members, who will
vote to ratify the proposed constitutional
amendment. Some of the members, we APP
prehend, do not understand the amendment,
and very large majority of them are pledg-
ed against it in the most positive terms. This
majority cannot ratify it, in any event. If
they do. they will break their solemn pledges,
and will forfeit the respect and confidence of
all honorable persons. Those members elect
who fairly and fully explained the proposed
amendment to the people, and pledged them
selves to vote for it as the only feasible means
to effect an early restoration of the Union,
incurred grave responsibility, and have
| entitled themselves to the confidence and
thsnks of every patriot and lover of the
Union in the whole country. These may be
| regarded as unconditional Unionists.-
There are other Unionists, whom we may
call conditional Unionists. These classes
combined largely outnumber the original Sc
| cessionists in the body.
