~ Last Thursday was as

49, ddot 1HulcNoy huo 40
quiet a day in Fayetteville as
could have been desired. There
was no riot, no attempt at any,
NO act calculated to disturb the
placidity of the day. Occasionally
an outburst of vigorous English,
caused by the farce being perform
ed at the courthouse, would find
vent. Boys voted for Brownlow,
by virtue Of a certificate from
John Carey, who had not attained
the age of 81 years. This was
all right, of course, although five
hundred Etheridge voters of
Lynchburg, Dukes Creek, and
Camargo were denied the right of
voting by Mr.. Carey, on bare
technicality, when he kneao that
under the Franchise Law they
were entitled. to certificates of
registration.

The Results Lesson.

i To talk about the s'natural right
iof suffrage" is preposterous at the
best, and no man of common sense
believes in the silly presumption
lit involves. The right of suffrage
belongs only to those who have
Intelligence enough to exercise
it with discrimination. "Poets
are born, not made" the apothegm
tells us, but electors are very diff.
ferent creatures; for if suffrage
be a natural right belonging to all
men, without regard to education
or understanding, it belongs to
idiots and lunatics as well as to
men who can logically reason,
and we are pitifully robbing the
helpless who look to us for protec-
ton while we withhold from them
the ballot. Indeed, if suffrage be |
a natural right, it belongs to wo-
men as well as to men, and sex
can make no more distinction than
color! But it is not q natural
right. 1t is an acquired right-a
right acquired by men under GER
tain conditions of qualification,
which is supposed to fit them for
exercising it with a reasonable
degree of judgment.
Poverty should not deprive a
nan of the enjoyment of the right
% vote, because he may be wise
however INDECENT. Ignorance
houzd be bar to any mans citi-
:enship; for, although ignorance
nay be bliss, it as unquestionably
ncapacity, and the incapable
hould not be accepted as capable
merely for election purposes i
rhe Radicals consider the negro
'ote desirable, however ignorant !
he negro may be, because they 6
elieve it certain for their ticket; {
nut they bitterly oppose he"Rebel"
ote, however intelligent, because !
always goes against their ticket. e
md that is the sum and substance
f Radical craftsmanship! .
Thus it is with all mere politi- il
ians. IF shrewd and equitable a
n all other subjects, in political
1atters party feeling wholly u-
urps in their minds the place of
ust deliberation, and they run in
, absurd extremes for want of
nat clear perception of right and =
'rong, which is exercised instinct G
rely on other occasions. How.
yer intelligently they may con- B
erse on other topics, the slightest L
bservation shows that they have a
lentally dwelt upon politics until A
hey have completely lost all pow
to deal with that topic nationally 3
nd fairly.
