The political canvass in North Carolina exceeds IN
excitement that in any other Southern state There
is split among the radicals, which, if at all general,
is likely to eusure the defeat OF the radical ticket.

blacks 1861. Under the revision, the whites have
largely increased in the number registered over the
blacks. The candidates are as follows -

Mr.. Holden has been accused OF being identified
with both Union and rebel sentiments during
war. He is said TO have been the first to suggest the
the assassination OF Lincoln and at the same time It
is known that his Office was sacked by regiment OF
rebel soldiers for the alleged expression OF anti
Southern sentiments. He Is very strong
man politically in the State and under ordinary cir
cumstances his election might be set down as certain
The hue and cry against him seems at this distance
to be more actuated by personal, II not sordid mo-
tives, than any patriotic impulses The independent
radical who is running against him Is tho United
States Marshal for North Carolina and, II we mis-
take not is from New Hampshire, while Holden Is a
native of North Carolina. Mr.. Ashe, the conserva-
tive candidate belongs one the oldest families
in the State-one Identified with the earliest revolu-
tionary struggles Two OF the name have represent
ed the State in Congress. The present candidate
was Representative and Senator In the Confederate
Congress.

Sweetwater country either on horseback,
muiehack or with teams. Several efforts
during the past six weeks have been made
to get into South Pass with teams, bu. they
failed in every instance owing to thegreat
depth Of snow and the want Of stations for q
distance of several miles. Our stay here
will be only temposry. having made arrange.
