admit he entertained abstract views on
the subject as did all men in the South du-
ring the heated discussions of the question
OF abolishing slavery by an act Of Congress.
l admit in those days the opinion was gen.
orally impressed upon the Southern mind, if
an overt or fragrant act should be committed
by Congress against the settled principles of
the Constitution, the States would have
right in Convention to appeal for grievances,
and failing, a majority concurring, could
withdraw or dissolve their relations with the
federal compact

State then or during the movement of 1860?
Did he acquiesce in that movement? What

Did he mean secession when he published
the circumstances of seventy odd counties in
this State against the war, and the petitions
of those people praying the Governor to call
Convention of the people in 1868, and for
which his property was destroyed and his life
threatened? ask his accusers to answer if
all this meant secession2 Where is.the con-
sistency2 Do not his accusers blush at their
own tergiversations It is true he was once
identified with wing or federal policy of the
government It is also true he afterwards
became identified with democratic policy Of

accusers make Of that? 8

If this is thegreat sin complained OF then
that sin rests upon oil, for all have slnned

denim Andrew johnson for making him Pro-
vlsional Governor. If they condemn him
for his Unionism, then they ignore the re-
auirements of the Presidents plan OF restor-

relations. IF they accuse him OF disioyaity
to the late Confederacy, then they concede
the lawful authority of that government and
deny MIN the right Of obedience and loyalty
to the federal Union.
If he was the choice of the President to
provide provisional government for North

to have all the offices of honor, trust, and

sented, and candidate nominated.

To the Union Men of NOrth.Carolina.


To the Union Men of North-Carolina.
The new Constitution has been defeated,
and it now remains to be seen, it the Union
men Of this State are going to allow
Worth and those who support him, to run
over them without any show of opposition,
whatever
sNothing is impossible, and if the Union
men all over the State will rise up in their
might and present bold front to the pres
emf dominant party, Worth can be beaten. 1
am certain no true Union man will support
Worth, and it becomes them to begin to act
and bring out their candidates for Governor
and the Legislature.
Ny first choice is the Hon. Geo. W. Logan,
Of Rutherford, but am willing to give way
for some one, that the Howard Amendment,
does not exclude from office, provided it is
adopted, and I think it will be. The only
man that / know that is eminently qualified
for the position of Governor, is Gen. Alfred
Dockery, of Richmond County. If the
Howard Amendment is adopted, Worth if
elected, cannot be Governor; Gen. Dockery
II elected can take his seat, because he is not
under the ban.
