of both races control the bad Let then avoid
the fatal policy Of abandoning the convention, and
allowing government to be formed for without
| our participation. ia
The opposition to o convention viii probably be
popular in this way: By standing aloof and giving
the control Of the convention to extreme men, its
ton win be extreme and unpopular. And then it
will be easy TO say: told you so! To oppose any
thing is the safe side for popularity. II is especially
so now; because, if the best is done, shall
have hard time before us, and men will complain at
whatever is done, not knowing how much harder it
would have been under other circumstances. But,
it is iberal, not to say mischievous, to stand off and
united action make the burden lighter. 1t is better
to lift little, than to bear down. And, when
every man has much he bear, it is cruel to
add even feather.
have not meant to irritate, or to any one. by
the views presented. l only desire that We should
unite for the common good.
1t occurs to to add, that this objection may be
urged to what have said If there is any danger
of the convention doing extreme things in spite of
any wholesome restraint which might be attempted
obliged to admit that there is, then it would
be best to prevent the possibility of the mischief by
voting down the convention. To this l answer
Does any doubt, if refuse to call a convention
under the present acts that Congress will immedi-
ately pass another act, with further disfranchse-
ment of voters? Suppose for instance the
next act should restrict the voters and the dele
gates to those who voted for tire present convention
Where would be the escape then i think it the
high duty of every citizen to control ii for the best
interests of the State. CONVENTION.

The Farming Business.

The Southern farmer badly crippled by the
war, and also by unfavorabe seasons in 1865 and
1866; and the low price of cotton has blasted
his expectations in many respects and consequently
he feels discouraged. The unjust tax imposed by
the Government ON cotton and tobacco has not only
injured the producer of these articles but has
tailed the wages of freedmen and other aborers and
these things, sorry to believe, will be to lessen
the demand for labor for doubt many will abandon
the cultivation of cotton to great extent and turn
their attention other products of the SOIL especially
wheat and corn.
A farmer in Georgia expresses his determination
able for others to form the same resolution:
THE low price of cotton, though ruinous to u.s.
will be adv ambiguous in certain results follow
The demand for negro labor will not be so great; we
will have to hire for part of the CROP and let cotton
be the surplus shall pay special attention to rails
ing stock plenty of hogs, corn rice small grain
l can in cotton. Then a cotton crop is extra, and
what it brings we can keep in pockets There
will be vast change in the planting system; heavy
manurng to make one acre bring its bale, and lying
out in pasture, where stock can be raised and fed
plenty of hogs, colts, cattle, sheep &C. This will be
my plan, and it is the only plan to u.s.
That's the idea. Raise your own provisions, horses
and mules. After planting suffcicncy of land in
grain, &C., to secure this result then devote what
you can cultivate in addition to cotton When this
course is pursued by Planters they will to
feel the scarcity of money.

A Card.

Mn. EDITOR My name has been connected with
the public meetings and proceedings of the Republi
can party in Meeklenburg since the celebration OF
the 10th Of LAST May. have never regarded myself
as being particularly connected with any political
party organization, and the consideration which in
duced me to allow my name to be presented before
the public in this connection earnest desire
to give my influence in favor of the reconstruction OF
the Government on the terms proposed by Congress,
as | regarded those terms the most favorable
which could probably be obtained and hoped that
the Republican party would carry out the principles
of true Republication Transmitted to US by our
revolutionary fathers. But / regret that ] cannot
regard the policy presented by our present Repub-
licans exhibiting the equitable and honorable
principles devised to by worthy sires, but
eording to my judgment disposition upon the part
OF some of the leading characters to ride into official
positions a negroes back for their personal ac-
commodation regardless of the public welfare.
The deyelopements made by the proceedings of the
Republican Convention ON Saturday, the 9th Of No
vember, have satisfied my mind that while should
strictly adhere the republicanfsm of lie, giving
equal rights III nj freemen in North Carolina, yet the
very large ef unculivated intellect brought to
the ballot box by the present acts and
which may be swayed almost at pleasure by design
ing political demagogues, may very materially en-
danger republican institutions unless exercise
udcioas conservative vigilance in the extension of
the elective franchise to untutored class. This
sentiment may. perhaps, be regarded as coming in
conflict with resolution which presented in public
some time since, but it is the result of my recent
observations the versatility of the uncati~ated
minds
While therefore strictly adhere to the principles
of true republicanism, and hope cling to them with
unyielding grasp SO long life shall last, am
impelled by my convictions of duty to myself and the
interests of the country to enter my disclaimer to the
policy of the present organization in the selection of
foreigners and radicals TO represent North Carolina
in the Constitutional Convention.

From. Washington

Secretary McCulloch of the Treasury Depart
ment, has renewed his resignation, but was re
quested by the President to withhold it.
1t is stated that Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury, Chandler, positively retires at the be-
ginning of the year, and that the President has
recommended Hon. Edwin Cooper, of Tennessee
as his successor
Gen. Schofeld and Grant had al long discussion
mainly, it is said, bearing on the expense of re-
constructing Virginia, which already exceeds five
millions of dollars
The Judiciary Committee was engaged on the
Maryland investigation to-day, without elicitine
anything bearing on the question whether that
State has a Republican form of government.
The impeachment investigation will be resu.
med in few days. Col Hillyer, and possibly
Gen. Grant will be recalled
1t is confidently stated that the Committee on
the Kentucky elections will report unfavorable
against all the representatives from that State
except Knott. This leaves Kentucky with but
two representatives, Knott and Adams, the lat
ter having been admitted on the presentation OF
his credentials.
Gen. G. B. Crittenden has been pardoned
Representative Ashley has prepared, and will
offer on the first day of the session of Congress

How TO GET MARRIED FAsuIoNABLY.-
Nobody likes to do anything outre, and least of
all to be married out of the style. We think
there is room for great improvement in church
weddings as conducted here, and commend the
following to the consideration of those contcm-
plating such recreation during the coming winter
The fashion now is, at church weddings, to stretch
broad white ribbon across the aisle up which
the bridal party pass, above which none but in
vited guests are allowed to sit. The bridesmaids
enter in pairs, unattended by gentlemen-the
groom with his future mother-in-law-the bride
with her father. Two of the groomsmen precede
the whole party, and the others behind. After
the ceremony, each Of them gives an arm to one
of the maids as the party leave the church. At
least such is the latest Philadelphia fashion
There is not much objection to getting in any
style, 80 it is done according to law,l

School Books.

We spent an evening last week looking at the
school books of the children (As have six little
girls to educate we particularly interested in
the matter) We were gratifed to find that many
improvements have been made in the style and mat
of the publications of Prof Sterling of Green's
boro, \. C. His Readers struck us as being admi-
rably arranged and well adapted to Schools in North
Carolina. Besides the moral and religious instruc-
tion they contain something about the history of
native State, North Carolina, which should commend
them to our people
The Arithmetic by Prof. Saml. Lander, of Lin
colnton \. c., is good any published. Its
simplicity of arrangement will prove great aid to
beginners well those far advanced in
mathematics.
Let us all determine to encourage North Carolina
authors and North Carolina productions of all sorts
Although State has here tofore been Sighted and
