NO HEALTH WITHOUT vrGoR.

The wear and tear of life tells upon us all mole
orless. What are we but machinesg The vital
principal is the motive power that keeps the
human engine in motion; but as beams, pis-
tons. connection pipes, condensers and boilers
wear out so do organs. muscles, tissues and all
the compound parts of that marvellous piece Of
work called MAN. ag,
The mechanism of the body requires to be re.
paired and strengthened just as much as tho
mechanism employed to grind corn or spin cot
ton, or weave cloth. Steam cannot drive q bro
ken shaft, or impel drum or a wheel that is out
of gear; neither can the vital force act through
paralyzed limb, or an inert organ.
ARE YOU WEARING OUT? Do Won feel
that any one ofyour organs-your stomach, liv.
err, bowels, nervous system, or any other essen
tal part ofyour organization falters in its work.
If SO, repair the damage with the most powerful,
yet harmless, of invigorants, HOSTETTEk'S
STOMACH BITTERS. Remember that debility
is the Beginning of the End"-that the climax
ofall weakness is o universal paralysis of the
system, and that such paralysis is the immedi.
ate pre-: ursor of DEATH.
Don't wait for the disease to commit its raya-
ges before you commence the Strengthening pro-
cess. Keep the whole body in vigorous con-
dition by preventing, as far possible, the in
roads of decay. Repair the waste of nature with
natures best tonic. HOSTETTERS BITTERS.

Rowan.

Rowan may be relied upon for Repub-
lican majority The Hon. John Pool adj
dressed large audience in the Town Hall
in Salisbury, on Friday evening last His
speech had the happiest effect. Before Mr..
Pool visited Salisbury the Republicans had
been constantly gaining ground. After his
able efforts, put down our majority at one
hundred more in Rowan. From Salisbury
Mr.. Pool went to Cabarrus. Rely upon
Cabarrus for the Constitution and the ticket.

Have you Read the Constitution


Hundreds of Rebels are making all kinds
of false statements about the new Constitu-
tion with view to deceive the people They
tell the people that the Constitution pro-
vides forenormous taxes-that it provides for
mixing the white and the colored children in
the schools, and the white and colored men
in the militia, &c. Nov, these are falsehoods
of the most barefaced kind, and these Rebel
leaders know them to be so when they tell
them. They refuse to publish the Constitu-
ton in their papers, and they will not read
it to the people if they can possibly avoid
doing SO.
There is one way to test these things, and
that is by the Constitution itself. If any
one is in doubt in regard to what the Consti-
tuition contains, let him get 1t and read it,;
or if he can not read, let him get some one
in whom he has confidence to read it for
him. Is not this fair2 Is it right to con-
denim any thing before you have examined it?
If this Constitution is rejected, what will
follow? This is the third chance the peo-
pie of this State have had to get back to the
Union. They must 60 back sooner or later
They can not remain out of the Union and
have any hope of better times. They feel
and know this to be so. Well, then, is it
not best for all of us to return at once Sup
pose we refuse for the third time, think We
thatwe will thereby conciliate the conquerer?
Will not his terms be harder next time than
they are now? Will not the taxes he heay-
Ter, and that too on a people still poorer and
less able to pay2
We call on the people to read and judge
for themselves. Their dearest interests are
| at stake, and no man should cast vote
without knowing what the effect of his vote
will be-
KU-KLUx-THE AvENGER ABRoAD-Ter-
| rible was the phantom seen in the alley
near the Post-office Thursday night.last. A
skeleton, with winding sheet drawn about
his dry bones, seated upon snow-white
steed, whose nostrils emitted streams of
flame with strong odor of birthstone, was
seen just before the heavy rain burst upon
the city. Detaching his skull from its nat
ural position on his shoulders, the skeleton
phantom, Ku-Klux, or whateverit might be,
raped upon the window of the Post office
and in desperate haste inquired for the mail
for Fort Fisher A considerable crowd be-
ing attracted by this unusual night, the Ku-
Klux exhibited evident signs of uneasiness,
and with an explosion like the report of a
pistol vanished. 1t is useless to say that the
frightened darkies who CHANGED to be near
the spot took to their heels As they de.
! parted in their indecent haste these words
reached their ears as if borne upon the wind:

The Outrage in Clinton.

We have referred heretofore to the out
rageous and inhospitablc manner in which
Messrs Dockery, Ashley and Galloway were
recently treated by the rebels and traitors of
Clinton, Sampson County. Not only were
they denied shelter and food in that village,
but they would have been murdered but for
the interference of Mr.. Lee, formerly of the
NORTH Carolinian. And what is equally
strange and disreputable, the Wilmington
Jonrnal casts Il sur ON Mr. Lee because he
intcrposed to prevent b!oodshed! e-
The last Wilmington Post, giving further
particulars, says: s...t5 .
"After Col. Dockery had made his princi-
pal speech, the white Republicans left for
home; and, during the speech of Mr.. Fuller,
a row was instigated, for the purpose of
drawing tue colored people into fight, and
then they, the (colored people) left 4 Then,

ges at IA war dance. 5 ..a.1 0--7
There was nothing insulting, mean, false
or vile that they did not say; too cowardly
to make an assault themselves, they aimed
to provoke one from our friends. 9..I
We are informed by those who were on the
spot at the speakers stand, that the assail-
ant of Mr.. Galloway was hired for the dirty
work, and that he approached Mr. G. with
an open knife, which was wrested from him
by the by-standers.
There was also an attempt to hire drunken
men to make an assault upon colored men.
After dark, a cowardly rutfian attempted,
by creeping up behind him, to strike Mr.
Ashley with club, and was prevented by
a by-stander from executing his purpose"
