"The Called Jade Winces.o

The Sentinel is highly irritated at the
Hyde County article" which appeared in
Fridays Standard, and the authorship of
which it does us the honor to attribute to
Goy. Holden. We are fully aware that the
Sentinel doesn't like the shameful manner
IN which its party is trying to coercc the
coored people made public, and that it will
tell the most rigorous lies to conceal such
abuses that its ability will admit of--and
We concede its lying ability to be by no
means small-but it won't do, and the con-
cealment it so ardently wishes cannot be OBJ
tanned by any such means. We know and
can pr0re if necessary, not only the truth of
the statements contained in the article allu-
ued to- but of many similar cases in which
eo'ored men lave not only been beaten but
"'"s' tor no other reason than being Republi-
cans by cowardly copperhcads who shot
rom behind men whom they dared not face /!
ihls' and more than this We can ,oroos, and
we tell the colored people to go to the polls
1"u vote their sentiments, or to proclaim the
sentiments as much as they choose in any
proper place. and if ilterfered with by ruff
4''S 10 chastise them, or if assailed with
"eapohs to protect themselves as best they
van. The time for ''gag-aw" has gone by
:" north Carolina and woe to the party or
p~usans who shall try to revive it.

Arson COUNTY.

We learn that on Saturday, the 22d inst.
at Democratic meeting held at Whites
Store, Anson County, colored man named
Samuel Redfern was urged to speak. He did
so, and made a Republican speech; where
upon several rebels set upon and beat him
severely. Samuel jackson, a loyal man. was
also beaten by the same parties. Our in
tormant adds: jH3i .1. .H+." I -.-
"The Democratic party in the neighbor-
hood of Whites Store are exceedingly viru-
lent, and the poor colored people seem to
have no help or redress :. -
This thing of beating people for their po-
litical opinions must come to an end. The
militia Of Arson will soon be organized
Meanwhile there are loyal Justices of the
Peace IN. that County. We advise such men
as Samuel Redfern, thus cruelty beaten for no
cause whatever, to go tn some Justice Of the
Peace and demand justice. We take it for
granted hewill get it that the parties who
beat him will be bound over to court, tried,
and severely punished. If no Justice of the
Peace will act for him, let him get some
friend to report the case to Gov. Holden.
The Governor is determined 10 protect the
weak against the strong, and he will see
to 1t that the proud and wicked men who
are trampimg on the rights Of the poor
white man and the poor eolored man, are
brought to instice .fr
lo The day is not far distant when the election
OF Grant and Colfax will seal the doom for
all time Of the Arson county traitors and
all Other traitors. We shall have great
calm after the November election but moth
ing should prevent the Republican party
from pressing traitors habitualIy and per;
sistently to the earth, until they come to be
/ as thnsoughly despised as were the Tories Of
| the Revolution. lDiE..

DOdging the Issue.

The readers of the Standard have observed
the perslstency with which we have cntleaV7
ored to bring about discussion OF the
political issues of the campaign between the
Standard and the Copperhead press of this
State. We have time and lime again extern
ded special invitation to the Sentinel to
discuss the issues of the day with US, that
each might present its views and arguments
to the people of the State and let them
Judge which one was right. '
People of North Carolina, whom will you
trust2 Men who dare not tell you the
grounds upon which they ask your votes
men whose principles are so base that they
dare not trust them to your honest view-or
men who frankly lay their arguments and
principles open to your investigation, and
ask YOUR votes as an honest man asks an
other, because he knows himself to be right
Men of North Carolina, whose homes have
been desolated by civil war, will you vote
for the Democrats who inaugurated that
war, and who in four short years swept
away the results of your lifelong toll, that
they might obtain power and wealth from
your ruin and failing in their attempt by
arms, now try to accomplish the same in
fernal object by the ballot, and ask your as
sistance to again reduce themselves to pov
erty that may again rise on your ruin
Will you vote to aid them in this Never
Vote Tor no party Which dares not entrus
the people with its plans, but support the
party which has sustained the government
in its most perilous crisis, and which pre-
sents itself for your suffrages that it ma!
complete the work it has nobly sustained
thus far Vote for Grant and peace, and thu
property that once blessed you will be your:
again. pt af- .-t

HYDE County.

A colored friend writes from Hyde coun-
ty that the Ku Klx are organized at Swan
Quarter, and threaten to kill the colored peo-
pie.
Our advice to the colored people every
where snot to he alarmed. The Ku Klux
dare not hurt one of them. They are pro-
tected by the power of the State and the
power of the nation. Let them speak their
sentiments freely, let them hold their League
meetings, and when election day comes let
them vote Just as they please. .l =
The colored mans cabin, or his shelter
of any kind Is his castle. No man dare DIS
turb him in it. If any Rebel attempts to
beat colorcd man because he is a Repub-
lcan, let that colored man sohip that Relied
We are tired of this inccssapt advice to the
colored man to knucklc to, or run from
Rebels when he, the colored man, is in
the right. Colored men remember you are
free Insult no man. Keep yourselves in a
true Christian spirit, always in the right, on
the right side; but do not run from rebels, or
stand with your hands by your side and allow
wicked men to beat you over the head with
sticks, or stick knives in you, or shoot YOU.
God has given you the power to defend
yourselves. Do it, and we shall then hear
less of cruel and causeless outrages by des-
perate rebels on inoffensive coorcd men.

THE LATE Gov. SwAIN.-The Whining
ton Journal commenting upon the Resolu-
tions relative to the death of this great and
good man, adopted by Sow Holden, w.
M. Coleman and j. F. Taylor, at a late meet
ing OF the Executive BOafdn of the Uni
versity. says: .""tt u ,.,
1--WE scarcely thought Radicals capable of
such unblushing, and indeed such insulting
assurance as is exhibited by tho passage of
the above resolutions. Nothing could equal
it, save the proffer of sympathy and condo
lcnce by the murderer TO tue widow and
orphans crying over the yet bleeding body
OF his victim. 1t is we'll known that not
more than one month before, President
Swain had been elected from the position he
had held tor more that thirty years, that lie
had literally been driven from the University
of North Carolina" rai

II has been laundering among the Green Noun

the centre all round to the sea-" In ordinary
times local election IN Vermont Is hardly en-
titled to passing notice; but In the present cri'
els, end under oil tho circumstances attending
this Vermont election OF 1865, the grneral result
is,very significant In reference to the approach
ing Presidential election throughout the Union.
the Republicans and Democrats worked hard for
the victory, and very heavy vote 10 the result.
The Democrats OF course had no hope of carrying
the State where the Republicans hold two thirds
OF the popular vote With rood margin to spare;
but II the Democrats could Show positive gain
In the gcneral summing up, N compared with
the figures Of last years election or OF any cleo
toni the State Tor hall dozen year back they
would have something TO boast Of, and Is was for
moral victory of this sort that they put their
whole strength into the fight. 1t was deemed
matter Of great importance that Vermont, the
frat Northern Stale to speak ON the Presidential
issue since tho nomination, Of seymour and
Blair, should epeak In q voice which would pref
ty distinctly indicate the general drift of public
opinion throughout the country.
In this view the great gains and the heavy Re-
!, publican majority In this Vermont election arc,
we say, very Insignificant. The election was for
a Governor, Legislature and members of Con-
grcss, but the battl. was fought on the Pesideu.
tal issues pending between Grant and Colfax on
: the one side and Seymour and Blair on the other
IN the Presidential year all these preceding
State, city and town elections are SO decided.
They become the preliminary skirmlshes Of the
great national battle of November. Thus, for
example. the municipal election at Wilmington,
Delaware, on Tuesday, was marked by the most
active exertions on both sides, because by com.
mon consent, it was make test Of the relative
strength Of Grant and Seymour. The result, too
-apositive Republican gain on the popular vote
indicates the pressure Of the same forces
| on the public mind In Vermont and Delaware and
more or less over the country at large.
Thus speaks the New York Htrald, a few
days ago the friend and supporter of Sey.
mour and Blair. Nsees the and-writing on
the wall, and is hastening to escape from the
doom which will fall upon treason and rebel
lion in November. o asp'olEswa

The Raleigh Sentinel makes great preten-
sions to the character Of a heightened, moral
paper, true exponent Of Southern chivalry,
and truthful and reliable newspaper.
On yesterday we took occasion to notice
its statement that the cost of maintaining
the army in the South, of reconstruction and
the Freedman's Bureau was within about
three hundred million dollars of the truth.
In Its next issue, paraded in flaming capt.
tails, it announces for electioneering purposes
that the public debt has been increased over
one hundred and fifty million dollars since
the close of the war. To give color Of
showing to this monstrous assertion, and
with willful purpose to deceive its readers,
it presents statement Of the debt on the
s1st of March, 1865, before the close of the
war, comparing it with the statement on the
313of July, 1868, well kno wing that it re-
quired many millions within few months
after the surrender in April, 1855, to pay
the arrears due to the disbanding armies of
the United States and the bounties pledged
to the gallant soldiers who had been engaged
in putting down the gigantic Democratic
and Conservative rebellion. 1'"-4 -.af
