Giving mn the Contest.

1t has been apparent from the first that
the sole object Of the so1called Conservative
ticket in this County is to elect Gen. Fowle
to the Convention. Every thing is tosbe
bent to effect this result. The so-calIed have
no hope that they will elect Messrs Blake,
Mclean and Mangum. They are simply
like the, weights man swings when he
wants to make good jump. The General
hopes thus to swing himself in. We learn
that Mr.. Blake. who must have become dis
satisfied with the course of Gen. Fowle, who
derotes all his speeches to has own claims,
left the canvass on Friday at Oake Grove,
no one but Gen. Fowle of the so-called re-
manning on the stump.
Mr.. Blake rented fuckers Hall and adj
dressed the people in Raleigh on Saturday
night. We learn that the audience was,
small, and that the occasion was doleful
one Mr. Blake appeared to be much more
affected than his audience was. He made no
votes for himself or his party. &c.,.
Let every voter look well to his ticket
The effort will be to get Gen. Fowle's name
on the Republican ticket. All Gen. Fowle's
colleagues and every Rebel in the County
will sacrifice every thing for Gen. Fowle.-
Let Republicans scan their tickets closely
Be sure that the name of DanieTG. Fowle is
not on them. ......

We appeal to every white Republican to
cote the aohole ticket. The talk about ne
gro supremacy" is all nonsense. There are
three white candidates to one colored candi-
date on the Republican ticket in Wake, and
this is so throughout the State. Vote for
James IT. Harris as nell as the other candi-
dates. The election of Messrs. Williams,
Andrews, and Franklin will be largely due
to the colored vote. The white Republican
who neglects to vote for Harris and the whole
ticket will regret it, it may be when it is too
late. Don't split or scratch your tickets.

AS James Fl. Harris told Gen. Fowle at
Maws's, he was white enough to be Con-
sserxatiEe, hut not white enough to be.a Re-
Fa4blicaR. That is, if Mr.. Harris had &C
eEpted the offers of the Conservatives he
would have been all right in the estimation
of Gen. Fowle and his friends. .>4.s. !
The so~called can not bear Mr.. Harris on
the Repuslican ticket, but it is all right
when hea placed on the Fowle ticket against

shes at nothing to effect its objects.

1t is sad, if not awful thing to see
party feeling manifested in the Church Of
God, in disregard of the law of Christian
kindness and hospitality. The Rebel lead

having arrayed race against race, and neigh
Dor against neighbor, and for having inn

The attempt of the Conservative papers
to inaugurate q war of races. They pretend
to have discovered plots by the eolered peo-
l,le to rob, burn and murder. It's all pre-
ten ce. we venture to predict-done for mis-
chief Mark these men--WI. Post.
The Post has properly characterized the
conduct of these bloodthirsty wretches.-
They know the negro vote, Joined to the
loyal white vote, will soon deprive them of
power; and they are, therefore, SO enraged
against the negroes that they are itching tor
an opportunity to murder them. But, thank
God, their wicked hands are restrained by
the power of the nation. The loyal men in
these States will soon have complete control
of them, and they will be thoroughly able
to restrain their bad passions and govern
them as they should be governed.

Wolves ON A RAILwAY.--A cattle
train on the Luxembourg Railway was
stopped, says the Paris Nord, two
nights back, between LibTamont and
Polk, by the snow. The brakeman
was sent forward for aid to clear the
line, and while the guard, fireman, en-
gine-driyer and Customs officer were
engaged in getting the snow from under
the engines they were alarmed by
wolves, of which there were five, and
which were attracted, no doubt, by the
scent of the oxen and sheep cooped up
in rallied in carriages. The men had
no weapons save the fire utensils be-
longing to the engine The wolves re-
manned in demi circle a few yards
distant, looking keenly on. The en-,
gine-driyer let off the steam and blew
the whistle, and lanterns were waved to
and fro, but the savage brutes did not
move. The men then made their way,
followed by the wolves, to the guards
carriage. Three got in safe while the
fourth was on the step one of the ami
mails sprang on him, butsucceeded only
in tearing his coat. They all then.
made an attack, but were beaten of,
one being killed by a blow on the head.
Two hours elapsed before assistance
arrived, and during that time the
wolves made several attempts upon the
sheep trucks, but failed to get in. None
of the cattle were injured.
