IREDELL SUPERIOR CoURT.-The Superior
Court for Iredell is in session this week.
We learn from a friend that the whole time
of the court is and will be occupied with
criminal cases. He also informs us that
Judge Buxton is giving universal satisfac-
tion by all those qualities of the head and
heart which form the basis of high judi
cial character. Our informant says that he
is model Judge. Those like ourself, who
knew the Judge before his elevation, are
prepared to hear such high praise, for the
christian gentleman must make the up
right Judge. He does not, as charged by
some, seek popularity, ''by doctrines fash
ioned to the varying brave" We also learn
that his course around the circuit has been
such as to allay, i'll a great measure, the
feeling mutually engendered during the
war and to restore harmony among the
people. Nhf North Stuie.

COMMODORE J. r. 1UcKER-We were
shown on yesterday by gentleman, in this
city, who is his near relation, letter from
Commodore Tucker, from which we gather
the facts that he assumed the position pro-
missed him in the Peruvian navy on the 10Th
of August last, and had since that time
served as second in command of the allied
squadron of Peru and Chill, receiving the
most courteous and gratifying considera-
ton invariably at the hands of President
Prado and the members of his Cabinet.
1t is true, as has been alleged, that upon
his arrival some dissatisfaction was shown
by subordinate officers at the idea of for
eigner occupying chief command in their
service, and the Commodore promptly Of
fered his resignation to prevent any trouble
but the Government declined its accep-
tance and the malcontents were immedi-
ately placed under arrestfor trial by courts
martial. l.-Inder.

Can the Excluded States vote for President


A correspondent desires to know how the
continued exclusion of the Southern States
would affect the next Presidential election.
He says that those States will probably be
represented in the Democratic Convention.
that they will choose electors, and that thew
will vote solidly against the Radicals. The
question is will the votes of the States ex-
cluded from representation be counted in
the electoral college? We answer that their
votes cannot constitutionally be exclu-
ded. The Constitution says that " each
State shall appoint in such manner as the
Legislature thereof may direct a number of
PRESIDENTIAL electors, equal to the whole
number OF Senators and representatives to
which the State may be entitled in the Con-
gress." These electors shall "make distinct
lists of allpersons voted for as President, and
of all persons voted for as Vice President,
and OF the number of votes for each, which
lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit
sealed to the seat of Government of the
United States, directed to the President of
the Senate" This having been done,
"The President of the Senate shall, in
the presence of the Senate and House of
Representatives, open all the certificates, and
the votes shall then he counted the per-
son having The greatest number of votes for
President shall then be President" etc.
The foregoing language is certainly plain
enough to give the Southern States an
equal voice in the electoral college, for it
leaves nothing whatever to the discretion
OF Congress 1t declares that the Senate
shall open and count ALL the votes sent
to them from the several States, and gives
that body on power of exclusion. The Sen
ate is likely to continue to be Radical, how
ever, and as the Radicals think the Consti-
tuition is not of much account they NAV
to ''let it slide in 1868.

Then loved ones came to my call
And l dreamed, that despite earth's passion an(
guilt,
Gods mercy was over US all
But I'm human No more! There's blood. blood
blood,
Wherever my vision may fall
There's blood on the hearthstone, blood in the sky
And blood on the temple wall.
And my brain grows hot with the burning thought
OF my fair young daughter defled,
OF her mother dashed to earth and slain,
AS she struggled to shield her child.
And nv brain grows hot with the burning thought
That manacled, bound oppressed.
I saw it all, with hand at my throat,
And felOn's knee on my breast.
How did bear it? Ha! ha go ask
The vultures that feed on the slain,
From the red ravines of the wild Southwest
To the waves of the Eastern main.
In the lone morass, where the panther and fox
Snarl over their mangled prey,
In city and hamlet field, mountain and wood,
Yea ever by night and by day.
am tracing the fiends who murdered my peace,
And O'ertaking them one by one
Oh, God but whenever bring them to bay,
Ask not OF the deed that is done!
Herel look on my sabre! It's coated with gOre
For its strokes were sudden and fell;
But it shall not be sheathed while the Master
Fiend
Lives vet unclaimed of Hell.
That Devil who 'whelmed my daughter in shame,
While manacled, bound oppressed,
l writhed with rutfan hand at my throat,
And ruffian knee my breast.
He may crouch in the darkest cave of the earth,
Yet I'll tear him out from his den,
And I'll feast my eyes on the blood of his heart,
We're he backed by a thousand men.
Then away to my doom! wheresoever Hope"
The ''fOrlornest" speeds to the strife.

For I'm sick to my soul Of life.

FoRNEY THE AUTHOR OF THE LEDGER Ca
ARD.-Commenting on the Ledge''s expla-
nation of now it came by the recent sensa-
ton Washington dispatch, which SO excited
the money market and shocked the nerves
of financiers, the Herald says:
Our own explanation of the canord is
very different from that af the Ledger, but
is more generally accepted as correct Ac-
cording to our version the false information
originally came from Washington to New
York, having been sent by Flint, or some
body of the same calibre, and was tele-
graphed from this city to Philadelphia by
the New York Bohemians, who were en-
vious of the reputatian the Ledger had ac-
quired for soberness and correctness, and
were anxious to use it for &c d gambling pur-
poses A variation of this hypothesis, also
current in Wall street, is that Forney was
the author Of the original dispatch, and as
Forney is no more reliable than Flint, we
are not indisposed to accept the amend
ment.
