THE ELECTION for Governor and members of
the Legislature takes place in this State on the
18th of October. We see that in many counties
candidates for the Legislature are announcing
themselves. Some declare that they are in favor
of reputation, whilst others declare their opposi-
ton to such scheme, because it is well known
that the Legislature cannot authorize the repu-
diation of private debts. OF course all are par
ticular to announce that they in favor of low
taxes. One candidate in Cleaveland county, Mr.
Whitfield, hits the nail the head as follows:
''Now is the time for low taxes. low fees, small
salaries, and an economical expenditure of the
public moneys.
If Mr. Whitfield had also declared that he was
in favor of abolishing every Office that was not
actually neeessary-such State GeoIogist and
Adjutant General-he would have made just the
platform" to suit the times.

North Carolina will hold its annual session in this
place on the 10th of October.

COOP STATES RIGHT DecTRINE.-In speech
last week in the city of New York, Mr.. Seward,
Secretary of State, said
"1n the city and State of New York the people
should be faithful, first to their wives, then to
their children. then to their city and State, and
then to their country
This is precisely what the State-rights men of
this country have always contended was the right
principle to govern the action of the citizen, and
we shall not find fault with Secretary Seward for
re- affirming it at this time, even if it has been
denounced and declared obsolete by consolda-
tionists and radical disunonists. Good for Mr..
Seward.

DON'T FRET.-A great many people are just
now fretting and bothering themselves because
the crop prospect is bad because the country is
agitated by contending parties, and because
things generally don't work to please them
Some fear famine, some financial ruin, but not q
great many appear to fear the Devil. But what's
the of fretting and worrying ones self over
that he cannot help? There will be no famine in
this country. the radicals will finally be defeated
and everyt thing will turn up right after awhile
Have little faith in Providence, but be
sure and work hard and do r1ght-'keep your
powder dry" We never had the "blues'' and we
never intend to have such mean complaint, and
we beg all others to keep clear of similar diseases
Be cheerful and don't fret-everything will be
right in the end. Sufficient unto the day is the
evil thereof" Don't fret.

ILL NATURED REMARKs.-We often hear
persons wonder why there should be SO much
evil-speakipg, SANDER, detraction, and thou
sand other ramjfeations of malevolence. 1t
seems to be we'll nigh impossible to pay or
binary evening visit without witnessing the dis
section of the sayings and doings of some absent
one, who, if present. might easily explain away
all that excited disagreeable comment.
Of course, the foundation of this social evil
lies in natural eepravity, but this is a term as
hackneyed as scarce to suggest an idea, and GER
tainly is not satisfactory explanation Of the
difficulty.
We think the root of all this bitterness, and
evil talk, is-barrenness of mind and heart. In
this case, a man from the dearth of resources
within naturally looks without, and finding his
neighbours weakness the easiest topic, takes him
to pieces with unsparing hand. Hence the
source of this social curse.
There will be change for the better when
we read more, learn to think seriously, and keep
always busy.

September A, 1866.

CoNvICTED-A special term of the Superior
Court for Cabarrus county was held last week
Judge Mitchell presiding. The freedman, Henry
Query, was tried for committing rape on a highly
respectable white lady few weeks ago. in the
county of Cabarrus. After fair and impartial
trial, he was convicted and sentenced to be
hanged on Friday the 9TH of September.
white man named Adams was tried on the
charge of vagrancy, convicted, and sentenced to
be pinioned in the public Stocks (sometimes
called whipping -post,) and remain in Jail until
costs paid. The conviction of this man will
have good effect. and show idlers and loungers
of both colors that the law will be enforced against
them unless they 60 to work and earn a living in
an honest way. Adams is represented to be
stout. healthy man, but too lazy to work.
Two men-a white and negro-were
tried and sentenced to be whipped for horse
stealing.

We felt all along that the politicians of the
! West desired the adoption of the New Constitu-
ton for purposes of personal and party ends. and
for particular zeal for the welfare of the State.
We could never see why any Western man could
| advocate constitutional amendment which made
it almost impossible for that section of the State
to receive further aid from the Legislature, even
to complete their unfinished works of internal i'm
proyement without which, the productive soil.
mineral wealth and great natural manufacturing
resources of that section can never be developed,
Wilmington JOURNAL
We don't know to whom the Journal refers. or
what class of our citizens it considers "politi-
cians," but it is opinion that it is mistaken in
supposing that any portion of our people favored
the Constitution personal party
grounds. The Journal ought to be very cor
rectly informed before it makes such grave
charge and impugns the motives of any in the
West who favored the adoption of the new Con-
sttution. For own part. and for the people
of the counties in this section Ia majority of
whom voted for the Constitution) we can say that
desired the adoption of the Constitution be-
cause we thought it would promote the welfare
of the State at large-it would have settled vexed
questions and prevented much turmoil and agita-
ton in the future. We are net going to denounce
any one for opposing the Constitution. but
will say that those who advised it's rejection
responsible for whatever contention. strife and
agitation may hereafter occur about the white
basis, abolishing property qualification for Office,
election of Judges by the people, &C., &c. Our
friends of the journal will come in for good
share of this responsibility.
AS for appropriating public money for finishing
internal improvement works. or for any purpose
besides actual governmental expenses. it is not
worth while to talk about 1.-THE people, in their
present impoverished condition, will not submit
to such appropriations. The Journal need not
be surprised that '.any western man" advocated
a constitutional amendment which restricted ap-
preparations of public money.
