One of the boldest pieces of hypocrisy we
have ever seen, is the attempt to identify
Gov. Worth with President johnson. The
President stated, over his own signature, in
November last, that the election of Gov.
Worth had {" GREATLY DAMAGED THE
PROSPECTS OF THE STATE In THE REsTo-
RATION OF IT'S GOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS"
And he added, one more step in this di-
rection, and the +" mischief already done may
proue FATAL"
President johnson has neither retracted
nor qualified this language The Sentinel
the Governors organ, admitted short time
since that Gov. Worth did not have enough
influence with the President to secure for his
nominee the appointment of Collector for
the port of Wilmington.
The real friends of the President in this
State are the friends of ALFRED DocKERY.
The President himself was not more grieved
and indignant at the election of Gov. Worth
and at the maener in which he has ripped up
and destroyed bis plan in this State, than
are Gen. Dockery and his friends.

The Union Conventi0n.--Their Candid.
ate..-Their Platform.
The Union State Convention met in Raj
eigh on the Goth, and we published the pro-
ceedings in yesterdays paper. The issue is
fully made up and the ball opened in good
earnest. The convention was small, but res
olute and determined, and its action harmo-
nious and to the point. Wenow have some
thing tangible before us. The candidate Of
the Union party of the State comes before
the people with platform sound in every
part-not rotten plank or speck in it-up-
on which every patriot and truly loyal Union
man in the State can stand and feel secure.
Gov. Worth has no platform or principles,
or if he has, he studiously keeps them to
himself. 1t is true he processes to be stand
ing on the platform of "Johnson's policy"
but he can't tell to- day what that policy is,
and we predict that on the 18th of October
next, he will find to his chagrin that he has
mistaken the Copperhead policy for that Of
the johnson policy"
We have not time to-day, to comment on
the resolutions passed at this convention,
nor do we deem it necessary, for they speak
for themselves. They are clear, cogent and
comprehensive, and cannot fail to make .
deep impression on the public mind.
When the revilers and slanderers of the
Union men of the State read the names of
the State executive committee their cheeks
should burn with shame. Thefollowing names
are tower of strength, and we unhesitating-
ly assert that no fifteen men can be selected
in the State, of higher respectability, more
sterling worth or unfiinching integrity and
firmnpSs

From the above paper it viii be seen that

ernmeht to gather their. remsiins or protect
their memory. They died battling for US,
and some perpetual mark of our aPprecia-
ton is due, not merely as an honor to their
memory, but to stand as st living witness in
future years that they were not regarded as
traitors by their own people, and thatWe de-
light to do them honor. " 5re a
1t is proposed to erect a monument in the
Court Square, or in some other more suits
able place, on which shall be inscribed
the name Of every Confederate soldier from
this county who died or was killed in the
service. The monument should be dura~
bic and imposing one. 1t is a matter in

unite and contribute as they are able Form
Associations in every neighborhood, or get

proceeds will justify, and as speedily as pos
