MEssRs EDITORS II have just read the
/ Address of the Hon John Pool to the people
of the good old North State, ana must say,
that in my humble opinion, it is one Of the
most able and truthful documents have
read since 1851. Would to God that all who
profess to he Union men now, had pursued
the same course during the late war. tell
you, Messrs. Editors, such are few and far be-
tween had the honor of voting for Mr.. Pool
for Governor of the State rs. the great, grand
mogul of secession. Thank God, gave q
righteous vote. Mr. Pool has told the truth,
the whole truth and nothing but the truth,
regardless of what scoffers may think or say
am to glad to see the Charlotte Democrat
standing up for the Old Flag it is to be
hoped that all Others will soon do likewise
Also it is to be hoped that the Government
will let no pretended Union man deceive
them. No man ought to hold office who
has not stood firm all the time to his princi-
piles. If the true Union men are to be 10
nored for the sake of such men, God help
the country. II is to be hoped also, that
Judge Brooks will be careful in re.
gard to appointecs through him as to regis
tiers for Bankruptcy. Some say that the
law requires eminent lawyers. What is
law Common sense. And common sense
is to have been for the Union as far as
man could be during the war. am what
have been all the time; for the Flag of
Washington, jackson, Scott, &C., and the only
time that felt was traitor, was when
was forced to take arms against that Flag
proclaimed my Union sentiments when it
was dangerous to do so. Yet, stood firm,
and God being my Judge, will stand by
the government of the United States of
America, to the very last. am glad to see
that the UniOnists Of the State are standing
square.
We Union people have an idea that Gen.
Sickles is able to protect the whole of his
command. Now, the main relief we wish
is to stop the collection of all debts con-
tracted before and during the war. If he
should fail to do so, we are certainly
ruined.
The people can't pay anything now, and
the class of men who are sueing, are men
who stayed out of the war and forced Others
in. Now they propose to confiscate the
property, but are very much opposed to
Yankee confscation. We have no money,
and consequently the property will change
hands, leaving the masses of our people
destitute, just to crafty few men who
will be the means of degrading our people
and levellng them below the Freedmen, as
much as they talk of negro equality. do
hope, Messrs. Editors, you will urge this
matter upon Gen. Sickles, as it is all i'm
portant for the sake of humanity.
LOYAL AT HEART.
Egypt, N. c., April 10, 1867.
[Our friends will hail with delight the re-
cent Order of Gen. Sickles, staying the col
lection of debts. By this opportune and no.
Bile Order Gen. Sickles has erected for him.

of our people

MEssRs. EDITORS II send you the follow
ing extracts from the Raleigh correspon-
dence of the Illinois Stetszeitug, newspa-
per published in Chicago, and the leading
German radical journal of the Northwest.
After stating the object of the Conven-
ton, the number of delegates, &C., the cor
respondent goes on TO remark" The color
ed and white delegates met upon platform
of the most perfect civil and political equal
ity. Mr.. Jones' citizen of the State, who
was incarcerated in a rebel prison and after
wards served in the Union army, was made
President by reclamation. This Mr.. Jones,
it will be remembered, is one of the two men
elected to Congress from the rebel States,
who could take the test-oath." After speak
ing of the representation of the colored race
among the officers of the Convention and in
the different committees and complimenting
the address of Mr. Harris, the correspondent
proceeds:
"Such spectacle was never before wit
messed in North Carolina, and doubt if any
northern State has ever given such practi-
cal example of the doctrine of political
equality. Tell the Germans of the North
west, Mr.. Editor, that there is no Wade
Hampton politics in the platform. There
was no black Judas Iscariot in this Conven-
ton to betray his race and his friends into
the bloody hands of Massa Hampton" and
his allies, to plead with Congress to remove
the disabilities of the old slave aristocrats
and to assist them in bringing back, as far
rs possible, the "mild and patriarchal sys-
tenn" with its symbols of the block and the
whipping post. The Raleigh Convention
did not confine itself to declaring in favor OF
universal suffrage, but planted itself upon
the broad ground of impartial enfranchise-
ment." Thus the Republicans of North Car
olina have abolished the last distinction be-
tween the two races except that which ma
ture alone has placed between them. A
new day is dawning for North Carolina
There will be freedom of speech and free
dom of thought on all subjects; there will
be free schools; in one word, the Yankee
"school marin" is going to be respected"
The correspondent entertains no doubt
that the colored voters will 60 in solid
phalanx for the Republican ticket He says
that there are too many intelligent colored
people in this State for rebel demagogues to

Republican Meeting in Caldwell.

According to previous notice the Union
men of the Western part OF Caldwell Coun-
ty, convened at the Globe Church, on the
9Th of April.
The object of the meeting being explained
by David Moore and ]. R. Prichard, the
meeting was duly organized by calling Da-
vid Moore to the Chair, requesting w. Q.
Crisp to act as Secretary. On motion OF ]. r.
Prichard w. R. Coffey, Edmund Green, o.
mond Gragg and Daniel Green were ap-
pointed o committee to draft resolutions ex-
pressing more fully the sense of the meeting.
Resoloed, That we tender through this me-
dunn our heartfelt thanks to the honorable
members of the seth Congress for their indie
fatigable efforts in behalf OF Union men
South, in passing the Stevens and Sherman
military and reconstruction bill.
Rssolced, That we cheerfully accept the
situation provided by said bill, and that we
will do everything in our power to carry it
out in good faith in our State, as many of US
have served in the federal army.
Resolced, That in our opinion it is useless
to assemble in Convention, callel by leaders
of old parties, at any point, for the reason
each County would act for itself when the
time arrives to begin the work of recon-
str1ctiOn.
Resolued, That as the work of reconstruc-
tion commences only when the military COM
mander of this district is invested with his
powers, we deem it inexpedient to take any
action beyond primary meetings until fur
| ther instructions are given.
On motion, it was ordered that these pro-
| eeedings should be sent to the Raleigh
| StaadaM for publication.
On motion, we insert the names of the fol-
lowing gentlemen who were present at the
meeting: Lewis Banner, David Moore, J r

AN EXQUISITE STORY BY LAMAR
T1NE.-In the tribe of Neggdeh there
was horse whose fame was spread far
and near, and Bedouin of another tribe,
by name Daher, desired extremely to
possess it. Having offered in vain for
it his camels and his whole wealth, he
hit at length upon the following device,
by which he hoped to gain the object
of his desire: He resolved to stain his
face with the juice of an herb, to clothe
himself in rags, to tie his legs and neck
together, so as to appear like lame
beggar. Thus equipped, he went to
wait for Naber, the owner of the horse,
who he knew was to pass that way.
When he saw Naber approaching with
his beautiful steed, he cried out in
weak voice, " 1 am poor stranger for
three days have been unable to move
from this spot to seek for food. am
dying-help me, and Heaven will re-
ward YOU" The Bedouin kindly offered
to take him up on his horse and carry
him home; but the rogue replied, I" can.
not rise; l have no strength left" Ma
Der, touched with pity, dismounted, led
his horse to the spot, and, with great
Difficulty, set the seeming beggar on it's
back. But no sooner did Daher feel
himself in the saddle, than he set spurs
to the horse, and galloped off, calling
out as he did SO, cit is I, Daher. I
have got the horse and am off with it.
Naber called after him to stop and lis
ten. Certain of not being pursued, he
turned and halted at short distance
from Naber, who was armed with a
spear. " You have taken my horse"
said the latter. "Since Heaven has
willedit, l wish you joy Of it; but I do
conjure you never to tell any one how
you obtained it." "And why not %
said Daher. " Because" said the noble
Arab, " another man might be really
i'll, and men would fear to help him.
You would be the cause of many refus-
ing to perform an act of charity, for
fear Of being duped as 1 have been"
Struck with shame at these words, Da-
her was silent for moment, then spring.
ing from the horse, returned it to its
owner, embracing him. Naber made
him accompany him to his tent, where
they spent a few days together, and be-
came fast friends for life.

General Schofeld has informed a
member of the Virginia House of Dele
gates that the disqualification to vote
or hold office does not apply, under the
reconstruction bill, to persons who were
forced into the rebel service by conscrip-
ton, Notwithstanding that they had ia
ken an oath to support the Constitution
of the United States, and served in any
of the capacities enumerated in the pre-
scribed form of oath. This will reduce
the number of persons disqualified to
vote or hold Office to very small mar.
gin. The disqualification will be confin.
ed altogether to those who volunteered
in the early part of the war, few Of
whom are now living. The survivors
are principally of the conscript class,
save perhaps few officers who held
rank from the beginning, and obtained
their commissions by appointment.

LUXEMBURG.

DECLARATION OF THE MONITUER.
The Monituer du Soir, Of April 2, pub
fishes the following remarks upon the
Luxembourg question, as addressed to
Count Bismark by Herr Won Bennigsen,
the North German Parliament:
these questions, which might have
had an unpleasant result in the present
condition of Europe, leave upon us on
the whole favorable impression. Al
though several of Herr Won Bennigsen's
assertions might be seriously, disputed,
he has plainly admitted how desirable
is the maintenance of relations of cordi-
atty and good neighborhood between
the German and French nations, and
how disastrous would be war between
the two countries. Count Bismarck
pointed out in dignifed language the
necessity that Germany should take the
Just susceptibilities of France into &C
count, and also made several important
declarations. He admitted that Lux
emburg was an independent State OF
which the King of Holland could dis
pose, in the exercise of his sovereign
rights, and upon his own responsibility.
He did not attempt to contest the indu-
bitable fact that the inhabitants OF the
Duchy of Luxembourg experienced a
strong repugnance to being Incorporated
with Germany, and he insisted, lastly,
upon the influence which the desire of
maintaining pacific and friendly rela-
lions with its powerful neighbor must
exercise upon the policy of the Prussian
Government"
DECLARATION OF A sRMI-OFFICIAL PRUS-
SIAN PAPER.
The semi-official Berlin North Ger
man Gazette of April 2, in an article re-
fering to the eventuality of a war be-
tween France and Prussia on the Lux
emburg question, says:
"Luxemburg would by no means
compensate for the sacrifices which
would be eptailed by war. Even if
victorious, France would only once more
evoke former and now happily extin-
guished enmity. France should well
consider the question on all sides before
she attacks people defending its ma
tional integrity. War would also GER
tainly place in question that domestic
stability which the French Government
has striven to achieve"
