From Brownlow,s Dominions.

MEMPHIS, June 70.
Jeremiah Hall has been found hung near
Raleigh, Tenn. A paper on his person said
that he was hung for horse stealing, by the
outraged people.
Any number of scoundrels in Worth's do
minions deserve equally to be hanged for
horse-stealing. Until the military power
made itself felt, poor white men and colored
men could not keep horse in many locali-
ties east of this. They were stolen by an
organized band secretly united on the prin-
ciples of the Knights of the Golden Circle.
These secession devils were terror to the
good people of Wayne, Pitt, Lenoir, Greene,
Onslow, and other Counties. Troops have
recently been sent down to weed them out
and protect honest citizens.
So much for Worth's dominions.

Louisiana Levee Question-Meeting of
Congress-.

WASHINGTON, June %.
The Louisiana Isevee question attracts
great attention. 1t is confidently stated that
a special committee will be appointed by
next Congress to- investigate all matters con-
nected Herewith, including the means used
to secure the passage of last sessions bill,
whereby the Government endorsed the leVee
bonds.
tt IS stated that Senator Sherman IN re-
cent dispatch says that he will attend sum
mer session of Congress if business requires
it. He sees nothing yet to warrant the eAtr"
session.
The difficulty is. apprehended in getting
two-thirds. Among. those who cannot OF
will not attend are California one, ConnecIl,
cut one, Delaware two, Kentucky two: halne
one, Maryland two, Nevada one, Ono Io, one,
Oregon two, Pennsylvania two nn nne
Island one Tennessee one, West Vlrgln4la on,'
Wisconsin one, and Vermont one. MOTIF off,

THE RIGHT SP1RIT.-At meeting of
white and colored people recently held in
Fayette county, Ga, the object of which was
to set on foot some plan of education for the
freedman, the following resolutions were
adopted by the whites
ResOlUed, That we are in favor of the
education of the entire people of the
country, without distinction of race or
color.
ResolUed, That we will throw no obstacle
in the way of the education of the colored
people OF this county; but, on the contrary,
wish the enterprise God speed.
Resol0ed, That any interference with the
colored schools or churches meets our most
unqualified condemnation.
Resoloed, That we regard the avocation of
teaching the colored people as a perfectly
honorable business, and that those engaged
in teaching the same, are entitled to, and
should have our respect as any other citizen
OF the community.
These resolutions by the whites were not
adopted simply in theorizing spirit, but
were resolutely acted upon in good faith,
and proven by good works, as will be seen
by the following resolution adopted by the
colored men present at the meeting:
Resolced, That we tender our thanks to
our white friends in Fayette county, for their
advice and counsel to us to-day, and for the
encouragement and assistance they have Civ
en- US; and especially, to Capt. John HUE,
for building lot to build a school house
upon in Fayetteville, and Mr.. Isaac Avery,
for the privilege of building timber, and his
assistance in getting it to the place. Also
tender our thanks to T. ]. Edmondson for
lot to build school house upon in the 9th
district of said county.

The Republican Party.

Republicans are spoken of by some as
Conservatives, as Moderates, and as Radl-
calls. 1t is sufficient that one be Repu6la-
can. These side or outside names are de-
vices of the enemy.
We profess to belong to the great Repub-
lican party of the United States-the party
that suppressed the rebellion and saved the
Union. This party was represented by Abra-
ham Lincoln Andrew Johnson represented
it for while, but he has departed the faith
and is in rebel hands. The Congress now
represents this great party. We are with the
Congress. We are in favor of the Sherman
act, and we want to see it carried out in
good faith We hold that the rebel States
should be restored on no other than loyal
basis. If this can not be done, let them re-
main out of the Union under military gov
eminent We believe in the greatest good
to the greatest nun Der, and that government,
in all its departments, should do equal and
exact justice to all classes, colors' and condi-
lions of men, This is what we call Repub-
kcanism. We are neither Conservative, nor
a Radical, nor u Moderate. We are simply
a Republican. The name is an old and an
honorable one, and it is good enough for any
body.
We believe also in the platform of the
State Convention of North Carolina, adop-
ted the 9th March, 1867; and we believe
in the men who adopted that platform. We
shall stand by that platform, and by the men
who made it, If trouble should arise in the
Republican party in this State, we shall not
be responsible for it. We shall urge har-
mony and inculcatc good feeling at all times
and on all occasions. We shall task moth
ing that is not right, and submit to nothing
that is wrong" We shall make no cOnces-
sions to rebels or malcontents, but, standing
on principle, if they are disposed to renounce
their errors and attach themselves openly and
boldly to the Republican party, we shall be
of those who will give them a hearty well
come But we shall not be dazzled by big
names in the past or present, nor shall we
depart bairs-breadth from principle, or
from our Republican friends to propitiate
any man or set of men who are not heartily
and cheerfully with the Congress and for the
Sherman act. This is our position. We ex-
pect to maintain it under all circumstances
and against all corners.
We repeat, this talk in North Carolina
about conservative, or radical, or moderate
is a device of the enemy. We
warn all true Republicans against creating
or allowing such distinctions in the party.
We are all Republicans.

THE july SESSION. The evidences of the
approaching session of Congress are begin
ming to become manifest. Hon. j. B. Judd,
of Chicago, whose success in the last session
in getting ladders exempted frem taxation,
stamps him as legislator of great energy,
is already here. Hon. Leonard Myers, of Phil
aCelphia, who was to have sailed for Europe
tomorrow, foregoes the trip until after the
session is over. Speaker Colfax has mott
fed the proprietors Of the National to
reserve rooms for him. Hon.. Samuel Hoop
er, of Boston, writes that he will be here in
time, and the entire Wisconsin delegation
in the House save Eldridge, have written
that they will be on hand before the last
name on the roll is called Gen. Schenck
has received kilograms and letters from diff
ferent members of both Houses, and says
that he feels warranted in making the pre-
diction that quorum will be present on the

NJ. V. B. GILBERT, Sec'l

kEPt BLlCAN MEETING In MOORE COUNTY.
At a meeting of Washington Council, OF
the U. L. A, held at their hall, June Sth
1867, the following resolutions were read and
adopted:
Besozped, That we, the Republicans of this
community have assembled in Council, here
to-day, for the purpose of organizing our
selves with the great National Republican
party of the United States, and to assist in
the work of restoring the State of North
Carolina to her former relations with the
Federal government according to the acts of
Congress.
Resolced, That it is the duty of every true
Republican to support and endeavor by
every lawful means to carry out the plan for
reconstruction proposed by the seth Con-
gress; that we will not vote tor any man to
office whatever who is not true Republican
and does not advocate Union, Liberty and
Equality under the law.
ResoIUed, That we fully endorse the plat
form adopted by the great National Repub
hcan party assembled in Convention in RAJ
leigh the 9th March, 1867
Res0t0ed, That we recognize the hand of
merclful providence in the changes that have
been wrought in the land, and we invoke
His assistance and direction in the work now
devolvlng upon US, and pray them to bestow
upon us and upon our whole country his ia
vor and blessing
Resot0ed, That the future welfare of our
State demands that free schools for the edu-
cation Of all children irrespective of race or
color should be guaranteed by constitutional
provision.
Resot0ed, That we love, adore and revere
the American flag, that proud emblem of
freedom which now floats above us, and we
pledge ourselves to protect it at all hazards.
ResoIoed, That we are opposed to the am
nesty pardon law passed by the late Legis
lature of North Carolina, and denounce its
authors as unworthy servants.
ResO1ued, That we request Gen. sickles to
make no appointment of registers of voters
but such as are truly loyal Union men and
who were so from the beginning of the re-
bellion and remained so to the end.
Resoloed, That the North Carolina Stan-
dard-that reliable and never fiinching Re-
publican journal-in its unceasing efforts to
maintain liberty and law, truth and justice,
and equal rights to all, meets our approval.
Rcs0t0ed, That copy of these resolutions
be sent to the North Carolina Standard for
publication, with the request that other loyal
papers copy.

We still hear q good deal of slang against
the white Republicans about negro equality,
putting the negro above the white man."
&c. There is no sense or reason in this. 1t
does not follow, because the colored man has,
as he ought to have, all his political and
civil rights, that he will trench ON the social
rights or status of the white race Such OBJ
ijections to the Republican party proceed
either from Ignorance, prejudice or hatred to
the government. 1t was all very well for
Gov. Worth and his friends to attempt to
secure the colored vote. The old gentleman
even went so far as to call meeting in Cap
itol Square of the colored people, whom he
addressed at length, telling them he was
their best friend and beseeching them to go
with him. He was so Jealous in this bust
ness, and so anxious, that fearing they might
not believe him. he even went so far as to re-
fer them for further information to his man
Stephen one of his colored servants or en-
ployees. This was all right in Gov. Worth.
gro equality" But as soon as it is known
beyond question that the colured people in
tend to vote en- masse with the Republicans,
we hear great cry about "negro equality"
&c. Let no true Republican pay any atten
ton to such slang. 1t will soon cease. The
interests of the Republicans and the colored
people are mutual Divided, the State
would pass hopelessly into the hands of the
enemies of the government, and there would
be no safety for any true Unionist; united,
they can hold the State against all odds, re-
store it to the Union, and render its people
prosperous and happy.

Our citizens enjoyed a rich treat on Thurs
day night last, in the speech of W. J. Arm
strong, Esq, of Washington City. Mr.. Arm
strong addressed large assemblage in front
of the Courthouse, in the open air, for more
than an hour, and was frequently enthusi
astically cheered as he eloquently expeund-
ed and enforced the great principles of the
Republican party.
We shall have the pleasure soon of laying
a portion, if not all of this excellent speech

PAINE's INSTITUTES MEDICINE, seventh edition by
Martyr Paine, A. NJ, NJ D., &c. Harper i Brothers,
New York. Publishers.
We are indebted to the publishers for
copy OF the above work, which since 1859
has been twice revised, and republished with
supplement-, additional notes, &C. We
copy the following notice of Paine's Institute
by the N. G. Medical Journal, April, 1859:
TFrom the Medical journal of N c. April 1859.
"These are works (The Institutes of Medi-
cine and the Ned and Physiology Comma) of
vast research, of the most extensive erudition
and of wonderful ability, rejecting the great
est credit on their author, his country, and
the profession of which he is a member
They embrace, in fact, the whole arcana of
medical science, containing full expositions
of every department included in the profess
ional curriculum, presenting learned and cru
dite treatises on all topics of interest to the
physician, and offering SO wide field for
Contemplation and study as to fill with
surprise that one one man could have accom-
plished so much. There is an unpretending
simplicity in his style, too, which is very
pleasant and attractive, especially in these
days of bombastic imitation and pedantic SUI
perfluities. In fact, DR.. Paine's works are
success, and not even the most carping critic
can deny the fact without proving himself
too ignorant and malicious for his office. As
regards the great subjects of solidism,' hui
moralism,' 'vitalism,' &C., which are so ex-
tensively discussed in these books, we have
neither the time nor space to consider them
at present, but can only say that DR.. Paine
sustains his views with wonderful PLAUSIBLE
ity, erudition, and ability. No physician
should esteem his library complete until these
three admirable works have been added to
it, not as a mere ornament or for the name
of the thing, but to be studied carefully and
continuously, as we'll as in that spirit of ex-
ultatlon which the pre-eminent success of
fellow-countryman must engender in every
patriotic bosom.n

Congress-.

1t seems now to be certain that Congress
will meet next Wednesday, the Sd of July.
1t is thought that a two-thirds vote of
true men can be easily obtained for all meas
ures deemed necessary. When Congress adj
journs for the December session, no doubt
will remain as to the purposes of that body
or the meaning of the Sherman act 1t is
exceedingly fortunate for the country that
we have such Congress. 1t is the last and
only hope Of the country.
