The Contrast.

"If 1 were to choose between the compan-
ionship of Yankees and hyenas. should in
finitely prefer the hyenas. "-Jeterson DaCis
IL Speech ut RicAaaend.
" with charity for all-with malice to-
wards none" -1hakam Lincoln.
THE government will not assail you.--
You can have no conflict without being
yourselves the aggressors.--AbrahamL incoln's
first Inaugural.
1--WE are not enemies. but friends. We
must not be enemies. Though passion may
have strained, it must not break our bonds
of affection. The mystic chords of memory,
stretching from every battlefield and pa
triot grave to every living heart and hearth
stone all over this broad land, will yet swell
with the chorus of the Union, when again
touched as surely they will be, by the better
angels of our nature. "-Abrdham L,ncoln's
first Inaugural.
The above extracts mark with clear
line the difference in temper between the
great head of the nation and the chief of
the rebellion. One was firm, just, meek,
merciful, magnanimous; the other was OBJ
stinate, arrogant, merciIess, cruel, proud, re-
morseless. This line is still seen, dividing
their followers. The Republicans of this
State for example, are just, forbearing, firm,
magnanimous-no returning railing for
raillng-doing all things with a gen.
tie spirit for the good of all; Willie their
opponents are violent, full of wrath and
malice, arrogant, proud, defiant, doing
nothing in spirit of Cancellation and kind
ness. Let the people judge between them.

It is seditious and murderous, because it
proposes, in 50 many words, to array the
whites against the blacks, and thus inaugu-
rate war of races. Will the military wink
at this incipicnt step to war of races
Thousands of these Rebel leaders urged
the continuance of the rebellion when they
kneao success for their cause was impossible.
Traitors before, they thus wrote themselves
down IN history as murderers. If collision
sbould occur between the two races in this
State, they will have to answer at the bar of
the world and at the throne OF God for
every drop of blood that may be shed.

Some ten days before the late election we
printed tickets for the Republican candi-
dates in Arson County, and forw arded them
to marlborough by mail. We have just
learned that the bundle was handed out
after the election Who is to blame for this
neglect The tickets were scnt-they prob
ably reached marlborough in due time,
but they were not delivered.
We frequently get complaints about the
failure of the lStaudard to reach subscribers
The Standard is carefully and regularly
mailed. Postmasters have no right to open

not authorized to receive it. We know that
some, if not many OF the Postmasters arc
hostile to the STANDARD, but we beg them to
remember their oaths and give us fair play.

uwhffe men Of Wdffen'c0dnty waneto skHow'
where John Read, Esq, was on Monday last,
when the Konvenshun votcd on Major Ora
hams amendment to the Militia Articles,
that white folks and niggers should not be
mixed up in the same companies, and that
niggcrs should not be placed as officers over
white men.
Speak out Johnny-show your hand-let
US know whether you are white man or a
nigger.-North Carolinian.
Mr.. Read was not in his seat on Monday,
not having returned from visit he had
made to his home in Warren. Mr.. Read
never fails to vote when present, and never
shuns any proper responsibility.
The foregoing is specimen of the man
ner in which some of the best men in the
State are assailed by the Rebel press. What
has this venerable, excellent man done, or
failed to do, that he is thus rudey and
coarsely assaiIed? A cause must indeed be
bad, which requires such weapons to be used
against those who are honestly opposed to it.
The foregoing from the North Ca,olinian re-
minds us of the worst days of the rebellion,
when Mr.. Davis himself characterized the
whole Northern people as hyenas, and when
the lowest ribaldry was applied to all who
doubted the infallibility and eternity of
"the Confederacy." The people are observ-
ing these things, and will decide for them
selves. They will judge Mr.. Read and his
associate members of the Convention gene
rally, by their acts, and not by what preju-
diced and INSCRIPTIONS press may cay OF
them.

The Rebel papers are parading lists of
names of persons appointed to " stump" the
various Counties in this State. Well, let
them stump" There are thousands OF
Leaguers and Heroes, and other true Repub-
licans, who will meet them in every neigh
borhood. These poor fellows, thus appoint
ed to speak by the Rebel Conclave in Raj
eigh, are so full of hatred to the government
and to all loyal men, that they cannot con-
tain themselves unless they stump" it.
We warn the people that the magazine of
Rebel lies is about to be opened. These are
the locusts spoken of in Revelation, that are
to come out OF the bottomless pit. Fortu-
nately their bite is harmless.

HOW BRANDRETH,s PILLS CURE.

When disease is in the system it may be said
to be an intruder. Brandreth's Pills are sort
of Police, which being swallowed, seize the in
truder, and cause disturbance, when Nature
turns them both out of her dom ins together
Nature always tries to restore health, but, alas
is not always able. Being assisted by BRAN
DRETH'S PILLS and mild diet, she never fails,
when this great medicine is.used in season. Over
hundred years has proved the truth Of this as.
sertion. In fact their insures the cure Of all
disease of the human body, whether chronic or
recent, infectious or otherwise; because they
purify the blood, and increase safely the action
of the excreting and secreting vessels. The sick
gain new powers of life from Brandreth's Pills,
as flower that is fading gathers vigor from re.
freshng rain.

ARTFUL DoDeING.-It was amusing to
see the so called Conservative members of
the Convention dodge on the 9th section of
the Bill of Rights. They would not vote
for it because it repudiates that dear Rebel
debt. They look for that debt to be paid,
and also pay for their slaves. They expect
this from the revulsion." When will it

The Loyal White People of this State
have seen and endured too much already to
be entrapped or influenced by the cry of
" White Mans Party" They know that the
issue is, colored suffrage with loyal rule, and
white suffrage only with Rebel rule If they
did not feel that cnlored suffrage was right,
they would do any thing in reason to es-
cape Rebel rule. They have been trying to
escape it for seven long years, and they
gladly avail themselves of the colored vote
to make good their escape and thus plant
themselves on the rock of peace, good will
and prosperity.
