have come to hand since our last issue. In
our next we shall publish as correct list as
can be made out of the members elect to the
Legislature, together with the vote for Gov
ernor.
Haywood, Macon. &c.
We are eratified to announce the election
of Gen. R. NJ. Henry to the Senate, from this,
the 5Oth district. Gen. Henry is IA true blue
Union man.
Green Garrett, Unionist, elected to the
Commons from Haywood, over DR.. S. L. Love,
Destructive.
Buncombe, Henderson, &c.
L. S. Cash, Esq, has been reelected to the
Senate from this district.
James Blythe, Unionist, elected to the
Commons from Henderson and Pennsylvania
over John d. Hyman, Destructive
N. Kelsey elected to the Commons from
Madison.
Moore and Montgomery.
The following letter from an esteemed
friend at Carthage, contains the result in
Moore and Montgomery The Unionists of
those Counties have acquitted themselves re-
markably well. They have shown what
might have been achieved, if the leading
Unionists of the State had gone to work and
prosecuted the campaign vigorously and
boldly. Our correspondent says:
1.-THE following is the result of the cleo
ton in Moore and Montgomery counties for
the Senate. In Moore, Col. w B. Richard
son, Unionist, received 431 votes, and Gen
Dowd, Destructive, 37S. Col Richardson's
majority in Montgomery is 21O votes as 1 am
informed, making his majority 264 votes in
the District.
Capt VIM NJ. Black, Unionist, for the
Commons in Moore, rcceiveds459 votes; Will
cox, Destructive, 343. Blacks majority IT.
Gov. Worth received 433 votes in Moore
Dockery 364. 1 understand Gen. Dockeryis
about 100 votes ahead in Montgomery. AL
len Jordan, Esq, the Union candidate for the
Commons in Montgomery, is elected by
large majority over Manchester, Esq.
The Howard amendment was fully dis
cussed by the candidates. Col. Richardson
and Capt. Black denied that the Howard
amendment meant negro equality, and con-
tended that there was no more negro equality
in the Howard amendmentthan there was in
the Civil Rights Bill, which is now the law
of the land. That if it would be the means
of restoring orth-Carolina to the Union,
they were ready to vote for it. Their oppo-
nents were rightly opposed to the Howard
amendment, and Gen. Dowd said before he
would vote for it he would resign his seat
and come home.
The candidates in Moore and Montgomery
ran almost entirely upon national issues; the
Union candidates taking ground in favor of
the government, and the Destructives ma
king objections to the policy of the govern
ment.
You may rest assured that the members
from gallant little Moore" will do all in
their power to return back to the " old home
stead" where we believe many friends are
waiting at the door to grasp us by the hand |
The feeling for Gen. Dockery was very strong |
in this section, and I understand through |
Western North Carolina.
I believe if the Pee Dee Farmer had |
consented to let his name run for Governor
when member of the Convention last sum
mer, he could have been elected triumph
antly."

A PERFECT ANTIDoTE FOR ALL Pol
soNs.-A plain farmer says; cit is
now over twenty years since learned
that street. oil would cure the bite of a
rattlesnake, not knowing it would cure
other kinds of poison. Practice, obser-
walton, and experience have tau ht me
that it will cure poison of any kind,
both on man and beast, 1 think no
farmer should be without bottle
IN his house. The patient must take a
spoonful of it internally, and battle the
wound for cure. To cure a horse it
requires eight times as much as it does
for man. Here let me state one of the
most extreme cases of snake bites in
this neighborhood: Eleven years aro
this summer, where the case had been
thirty days standing, and the patient
had been given up by his physicians. [

REDEMPTION OF FRACTIONAL CuRRENcY.
Few arc aware Of the amount Of work
performed by the redemption division Of
the Treasury Department, in which NIL de.
faced and mutilatcd fractional currency Is
redeemed and the owners furnished with
new currency or notes in exchange. Lust
week over $500 900 in currency was re-
deemed, and this sum does not greatly ex.
ceed the average amount redeemed weekly.
The utmost care is essential on the part oi
the clerks engaged in this work, as large
numbers Of counterfeit notes are received
which, when badly defaced, are apt to es-
cape detection. The greater part of the
counterfeit currency Is received from the
South, where Il has been extensively circu.
lated by the agents Of counterfciters en-.
gagged in its manufacture in Northern cities
and Is rarely detected by the people Of the
South, who readily receive 1t as genuine
The currency is frequently badly mutilated
and often possesses most offensive smell
