45rH SrrAroR1AL DISTRICT The election
of Mr.. Hin from this district is now claimed
by one majority over Mr.. cowlss, Unionist.
Awriter in the Sentinel denies that Mr..
Cowles' defeats owing to the bullying and
threatsof certain Destructiyes in the district.
We know the contrary. We know ne was
defeated in this way. He was driven from
the stump in one locality by armed traitors,
and the people were thu. inundated and
prevented from voting for him. It is useless
for the sentineps correspondent to attempt to
lieout of this charge. It's true. Twelve months
hence, if such traitors are to control, the cleo
lions will be free in but few localities in this
State. As specimen of the feeling exist.
ing in portions of the West, we copy the fol-
lowing from letter from friend in ALE
ghany county: sl
The vote at our precinct, the Old Fields,
was Dockery 81. Worth A. There never
have been such efforts made as were made
here by the secessionists. They are more
hostile to-day towards the federal govern
ment than they were at any time during the
rebellion. God help US, if we are to fall per-
manently into their hands !" sg5

The Hon. c. H. Browning, has written an
able defence of the Presidents policy, in the
course of which he says:
With every disposition to be charitable
towards those who differ from me in opinion,
it is difficult to believe them sincere in char
ging the President with the intention of vio-
lently forcing rebels into Congress, andglvipg
them the control of the Government What
act has he ever done that gives the slightest
sanction to such a charge? Not one can be
specified. He has neither transcribed his
own powers nor invaded those of the co-or-
dinate departments; and the only pretext
for the charge is, not what he has done, but
what he has said, in declaring again and
again his conviction that it was the duty of
Congress to obey plain constitutional pro-
vision, and each House for itself to judge of
the elections, returns, and qualifications of
each individual presenting himself as mem
ber" lUl
We assure Nh. Browning that the expec-
tation is general among the Destructive lea
ders in this State that the President will no
tify the Southern members elect to appear
at Washington in December next, to claim
their seats. These leaders are counting on
the President to do some violent, revolution
airy act, by which they can obtain seats in
Congress. This appears to be their only
hope in this respect. We are glad to find,
from Mr.. Brownings letter, who speaks for
the President, that they are destined to be
disappointed.

The Late EIection-The Future.

No election ever went more by default
than the recent one in this State The peo-
pie were hurried by their leaders into civil
war in 1861, and from that day to this they
have been suffering and voting in vain. In
1862 they made an effort, by electing Gov.
Vance, so to shape the war as to get peace
at the earliestpracticablepe period. Disappoint
ed in this, they made another effort in thesame
direction in 1884, but were prevented by the
bayonet and mob law from voting as they
wished. In 1865 they made another effort,
the number of votes constantly diminishing,
on account of disappointment caused by for
mer failures, and the result was the old Vance
dynasty was substantially re-established by
the election of Gov. Worth. The indifer-
ence of the people to the late election is to
be traced to the causes above set forth, join
ed to the general impression that no matter
what may be done or omitted, Congress will
arrange and settle the condition of the re-
Gently insurgent States in its own way.
The beliefs general among the people,
without reference to their particular shades
of opinion, that every thing in the way of
government in the South is uncertain, and
that Congress will direct thorough re-or-
ganization Of the Southern States. We say
this is the general impression or apprehen-
sion. Some desire it, and many fear it. This
being the case, it was not to be expected
that the people would take deep interest
in the elections, or that large vote would
be polled. What the future will disclose no
one can foresee. We only know we have
been conquered; that we are in the hands OF
Congress; and that that body can adopt
any course it may choose in relation to us.

For the Standard,
Isis True :


Isit Trues
Editors Of tia Standard
Is it true that Rev. VIM. p, Pell, Senior
Editor of the Raleigh Sentinel, contemplates
removing to Boston about the LIST Of Janus
.ry next That he intends to start church
journal in that City, perhaps, to be known as
the Southern Sentinel" with the view of re-
educating the mind of the North in relation
to slavery, and convincing the people in that
section, that the idea of abolition was con-
ceived and born in infdelity. This may
explain the course of the Sentinel (Raleigh)
in opposing the Howard amendment.
After the rejection of the constitutional
amendment by the,next Legislature, the Rev
erend gentleman could, from Boston, like Dr.
Deems, Editor of the Katchnaas,, from New
York, confidently appeal to his Southern
brethren for patronage, and while being re-
membered, not to say renumerated for his
opposition to the amendment now so "odious''
here, he might even with Wendell Philips
become so thick, and,
e* ~ So near of kin, :af
Aud like in all as well as sin,
That, put 'em in q bag and shake 'em,
Yourself o. TIL sudden would mistake ,em,
And not know. which IL which, unless
You measure by their wickedness."
The amendment has been proposed by way
of a compromise, which Philips ana Others
oppose as radically wrong, and should the
States South refuse to ratify it, why, then,
every sensible man foresees that amipersal suf
fTGge must come next.
The Senior will have to accept it or fight
and rather than do this he ought to follow
Deems, Hale & Son, Roger A. Pryor and 9th
er Southern men North, where opponents OF
the 'odious" amendment are as numerous, OF
will be, as in North-C Carolina for different
reasons, it is true, but for the same ends.
By the way, Messrs. Editors, there are
some persons who did not vote for Dockery
because they did not want the constitutional
amendment, but doiwant umioersol suffrage
They acted politically wisely. So the Senti-
nets wisdom may yet appear, crying without
and "whoso hearkeneth unto 1t shall dwell
safely and shall be quiet from fear of evil
ANXIOUS INQUIRER.

THE STATE ELECTION. Owing to the
small vote east throughout the State, it is ap-
parent that but little interest was taken in
the election. The people seem discouraged
and careless about exercising the right of
suffrage many of them, as they have declared,
mot being sufficiently informed upon the
issues of the day, to trust their own judg-
ment, and thus situated, fearing lest they
might do wrong, preferred not to vote at ALL"
It appears then that the candidates did
not fully define their positions or failed to
enlighten the people or convince them that
they occupied the true position; it may also
be that the people had no confidence in the
professions Of the candidates, to great ex
tent. It is true, the people were deceived
and led to ruin by designing men, few
years since, and it is natural that they should
be little careful in future; but we fear, if
the good and true honest, men continue to
absent themselves from the polls, bad men
will take advantage Of their remissness, and
make matters great deal worse than they
now are.

WEST VRGrNIA.-We have no doubt our
neighbors of the Sentinel will be glad to
learn that the Republicans have carried West
Virginia by increased majorities. Gov. Bore
man is reelected, both the members of Con-
gress are Republicans, and the Legislature is
Republican by large majority. Modern
Democracy is no where in the contest. This
will grieve our neighbors, as they are just
now industriously engaged in the attempt to
revive the old Democratic party.

We give below such election returns as
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 eratifed to announce the election
of Gen. R. NJ. Henry to the Senate, from this,
the 5Oth district. Gen. Henry is 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. LYMAN, 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:
"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 210 votes as l am
informed, making his majority 264 votes in
the District.
Capt VIM. NJ Black, Unionist. for the
Commons in Moore, receiveds459 votes; Will
cox, Destructive, 343. Blacks majority III.
Gov. Worth received 433 votes in Moore,
Dockery 1854. 1 understand Gen. Dockery is
about 100 votes ahead in Montgomery. Al
len Jordan, Esq, the Union candidate for the
Commons in Montgomery, is elected by a
large majority over MMcAlister, 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 amendment than there was in
the Civil Rights Bill; which is now the law
of the land. That if it would be the means
of restoring North-Carolina to the Union,
they were ready to vote for it. Their oppo-
nents were rigidly 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 l understand through
Western North Carolina
l believe if the "Pee Dee Farmer had
consented to let his name run for Governor,
when a member of the Convention last sum-
mer, he could have been elected triumph
antly."

ARREST OF 4 ConDs,enrD CRnnAL.-
This morning, Sheriff Phillpot, Of Granville
County, North Carolina, arrived here with a
requisition for negro named Anderson
Cooper, who broke Jail in that county in
March, 1856, after having been sentenced to-
be hung, Mr.. Phillpot at once conferred
with Deputy Marshal Phillips, and the re-
auisition being on the Governor of Virginia,
and therefore of no power here, he was advi-s
sed to place the matter in the hands of the
police. Accordingly he obtained warrant
from Justice Walter and the ease was placed,
in the hands of Officer McColgan The Of
fcer at once put on his citizens clothes and,
with Mr.. PhiTpot went to a house on 7th
street near F. on the Island, and took the
fugitive in custody Cooper was quite sur
prised when arrested and denied that he was
the party the officer wanted, but on getting
a sight of the sheriff at once owned up. On
the way to the station, the officer, with his
prisoner, was followed by quite large
crowd of colored people, who seemed to
doubt the authority of the officer to arrest
him, but there was no direct interference
The prisonar was Immediately taken be-
fore Justice Walter, who committed him to
Jail to await requisition from the Governor
of N. G. The prisoner, with his brother,
William or Washington Cooper, were ares
ted, tried, convicted and sentenced to be
hanged for committing rape on the person
of Mrs. Daniels in Granville county, N. c., in
March. 1865. They made their escape from
the Jail, but William was shortly after rear
rested and executed. The whereabouts of
Henderson was not discovered until recently,
when the sheriff took measures to arrest him.
The accused is small, dark-skinned man,
of about twenty-five years. He seems to
know that his brother was hung. but at the
same time appears to be quite Indifferent
about the matter Washington City Star.

Renovation Of the Capitol.

We are pleased to observe that the State
Capitol has been renovated and put in good
condition for the ensuing Legislature. The
two Halls have been handsomely carpeted,
the windows shaded and curtained, and the
interior of the building re-painted. Gas has
also been introduced, with elegant chande-
Tiers for the two Halls. The flood of light
from all the burners is nearly equal to the
sun at MONDAY. Business, can therefore, be
transacted as well at night as during the
day. Gas has also been introduced into the
rooms of the public officers, and the floors
well carpeted.
The painting was executed by Mr.. Alex.
Hardie and Willis Harrison, and the uphol-
stering by Rufus Harrison. The entire work
was conducted and supervised by Mr.. Best,
the faithful and excellent Secretary of State
