We have had cbscr contest than you
would have expectedIher from the fact that
our opponents, though advocating the .geuu-
inc Copperhead principles, were well known
as old Union men and so managed to get
part of the Union vote The Rebs" voted
for them en- anasse, and all the votes given
against Convention were for them, except
one. Our soresheaded friends here are des-
perate. They were confident of success and
can hardly express their rage at the defeat.
Thirty of them held Convention the other
day and sent fifteen delegates to the Conserv.
ative Convention to represent the County"

Extract from letter from a leading Re

%" am pleased to inform you that the
/ Union Republican party of this County has
gained glorious victory, and after a tlesper-
ate conflict we have elected our regular Re-
! publican candidate to the Convention, Hon.
] John r. French, by the good majority of
one hundred and sirty On the question of a
I Convention the majority is 541.tg We had a
severe struggle, and while the colored men
have stood bravely to the work, many of the
white pretended Union men, frightened by
the Northern elections, formed disgraceful
alliance with the enemies of Reconstruction.
The Clerk of the Federal, Court for, Albe-
marie District placed himself at the head of
/ this unholy alliance and OPENLY peddled
votes headed - against a Convention n
What shall be said of such Federal Office
holder2 But Chowan, brave little County,
is strong for a Convention and sends no
lnongrel as a Delegate. ai'l' ~ -
