Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad.

The complications of our political situa'
ton are already being experienced. Gov.
WORTH, by and with the advice of the
Board of Internal improvements, appoint
ed State Directors for all the Railroads. s.
General CANDY signalized his retirement as
District Commander by revoking the ap-
pointments. There seems to be some in,
dications of trouble in regard to the mat.
ter.
By announcement in the &a3sG0UG, the
recently appointed Directors of the Allan
tic and North Carolina Railroad have call
ed meeting Of the stockholders on the
24th inst, at Morehead City. On the
other hand, President WHITFoRD, by virtue
of the power given in the charter of the
Company, publishes i'll the New Berne
Journal Of Commerce, a call for meeting
of the stockholders at Morehead City on
the 3Oth inst.
How these differences are to be recon
ciled wo do not know. This is but the be-
ginning of the end of the complications and
troubles which the anomalous condition Of
political affairs in the South will entail up
on us. The stockholders of the North
Carolina Railroad met yesterday in Raleigh,
and we would not be surprised to learn
that some difficulty resulted from the same
conflict of authority. Two Boards of State
Directors were present and two proxies for
the State, and we suppose it will rest with
the private stockholders to decide who rep

North Carolina and Gov. Seymour.

It appears that the North Carolina del
egation were the first to bring forward the
name of Gov. SEYMOUR, against his pro-
test In the journal Of the Convention we
find the following proceedings attendin,
the fourth ballot:
"When tho State of North Carolina was called.
the Chairman OF the Delegation OR WrighIl
said nine votes for Eoratio Seymour, which
| was received with loud and enthusiastic cheering
by the galleries.
"Mr. Tlldcn-Mr President shall give notice
if there is any cheering in the galleries in respect
| to tho candidates who Sc names are mentioned
here that shall move to clear the galleries.
Mr.. Richardson, OF 1linois-I move to clear
them now.
"a Delegate from Michigan-I suggest to the
gentleman from Illinois (Hichardson) that the IN
timation is sufficient if he will withdraw his mo-
| ton.
"Mr Richardson-Ce Certainly Il will withdraw
the motion.
''The President, (Mr. Seymour)--I trust l m ay
be permitted now to make single remark. Very
much to my surprise my name has been mention
ed. must not be nominated by this ConFen-
ton, as could not accept its nomination II ten
dered, which l do not expect My own lnci!n&-
tions prompted me to decline at the outset ; my
honor cOlnpes me to do so now. L am grateful
for any expression of kindness. 1t must be dis
tinctly understood it is impossible, consistently
with my position, to allow my name to be men
toned In this Convention against my protest.
THE call was completed. At its close North
Carolina was again called, but persisted in her
vote for Seymour
It may be possible that this adherence to
Gov. SEYMOUR by our delegation and the
enthusiasm it created, was the cause OF his
final nomination. Whatever may have
caused it, there could not have been more
acceptable name presented.
Wilmington journal. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1844-1895, 1868-07-17

The nomination by the National Demo
cratic Convention of two such distinguish
ed men as candidates for President and
Vice President render it only necessary to
announce their names, for each have
national and enviable reputation.
Gov. Ho8ATIo SEYMOUR has long been
recognized as probably the leading states
man of the country. His eminent abilities,
his great experience, his tried statesman
ship, his tirmncss and his character pecu-
liarly fit him to discharge the executive
duties incumbent upon the President in
this critical and tying period Of our coun-
try's history. The favorite son of New
York, the compliment to tie State is most
worthily bestowed, and it is a just appreci
alton of the vote of that State at its last
election.
The manner of the nomination was as
complimentary as it was highly merited.-
More than dozen times during the last
year Gov. SEYMOUR has positively forbid
den the use of his name Us a Presidential
candidate. During the sessions Of the
Convention--nay, when State after State
were casting their votes, with great una
nimity and enthusiasm for him, he solemn
ly protested against the proceedings, and
only yielded when different course would
lave been most hurtful to the harmony of
the party and the success Of the ticket
Never in the history of party politics in
this country was nomination more COM
plimentary or wortbily bestowed. The
people of the great brotherhood of States
will endorse it in November as will insure
the triumph of tho ticket.
General FRANK ?. BLAIR is fully rs well
known as soldier and statesman. The
unanimity with which his nomination was
made, the enthusiasm of the soldiers pres
ent, and the hearty endorsement given 1t
by Generals HAMPTON, FoRREsr, kEMPER
and others, who had fought him in the
field, shows that bis galiantry III war, and
his craftsmanship in peace, has made him
friends in all parts of the Union. His NOM
nation was duo his section and in accord
ance with the wishes of the two thousand
soldiers and sailors assembled in Conven-
ton in New York. These veterans will
wake up the slumbering enthusiasm of their
old comrades, which the desertion by
GRANT OF the principles upon which the
war was fought and the victory won had
lulled into sleep.
Genl BLAIR is graduate of the Univer-
sity of this State, and among bis old class
mates aud college-mates he has many in
fuential friends in North Carolina who viii
vie with each other to insure the election
Of their old companion.
We have much to hope, both in our cam
didates and platform. We look for enthu-
siastic responses from all portions of the
country, and we expect to see a canvass
inaugurated in spirit and earnestness, and
unsurpassed in the splendor of its victory
for constitutional liberty and the progress
and prosperity Of the country. God grant
that our expectation may be realized.

Well, Messrs. Editors. the Howard
amendment has been adopted by the North
Carolina Legislature, and Free Negro
has been metamorphosed into So citizen -
of the State. under the Federal Constitu-
| ton.
Now, sir, calling Sleeps tail a Sleeps
leg, does not make it so and I now pro
pose, by your permission, to prove that the
tail never can become the leg under the
powers of the Federal Constitution, which
every Legislator has taken a solemn oath
to support, and if do this the proof is
conclusive that the party in power are
either ignorant of their duty Or reckless of
the obligation they have assumed to sup
port and observe the Federal Constitution
Ii the former, they should at once resigr
and give place to better men ; but if the
latter (which cannot supposed, they are
entirely unworthy of the public confidence.
I begin, then, by asking whether a ''FI ct
Negro is ''Citizen." This to the South,
as we'll as to the country at large, is an all
important question.
It has again, and get again. been adjudi-
Gated by the highest Courts of the countr,
that they are not citizens.
At the time of the adoption of the Fed
eral Constitution in 1857, all the States or
the Union Except one) held slaves and the
colored people generally were slaves, and
such of them as were not exercised few, if
any, political rights. They were not allow
ed to vote-they could not serve on iuries
they performed no military duty-they
were incapaciated from holding Office or
Legislative trust-they were forbidden to
intermarry with the whites-they had no
concern in the administration of Justice,
and no part in the details of local legisla-
ton.
I fearlessly ask If these slave-holding
States (for mark, all but one held slaves)
could have intended to apply the clause
giving equal privileges " to " citizens :"
in any State, to persons who in euery State,
were treated as degraded So caste of in
ferior rank ? The thing is utterly prepos-
ferrous and absurd

Abbott and Estes.

The vlndictiveness and cowardice with
which these two carpet-bag" representa-
tives of New Hanover assail the people of
this State in every effort made to petition
Congress to remove the disabilities from
the citizens Of North Carolina by the Legis-
lature, is in perfect keeping with the spirit
actuating impudent interlopers in the
South. Their only hopes of Office aud
plumber is through the prostration of the in
telligence and character of the State at the
feet of the ignorant and worthless. Under
the plea of loyalty, spirit of rebellion, and
taking the power from the hands of the
Republicans, these two representatives of
New England fanaticism denounce the
good people of North Carolina in brainless
and malicious invectives.
Abbott looks to the Senate as reward
for his course, while poor Estes hopes to
pick up some crumb to supply the failing
receipts of his income as Collector of In
ternal Revenue, which, since the abolition
of the cotton tax and other changes in the
law, is becoming "small by degrees and
beautifully less" These men must be pro-
vided with good paying Offices, and one
failing, another must be conferred. So we
expect Estes will turn up" in something
handsome soon.
The course pursued by the negro repre-
sentatives of New Hanover, Galloway and
Price, is in favorable contrast with that of
the white members. They certainly have
