Dear Bulletin: Having spent two weeks
in Virginia and North Carolina, and visited
all the principal places in both States, have
thought few reflections on the situation
might possibly be Of interest to your read
ers. Poor old Virginia, mother of States
and Of Statesmen; she is truly Inundated;
declared by the radical Congress out of the
Union, having no vote allowed her In the
pending elections; refused as yet even the
right to vote on the adoption Of the new
radical negro constitution, which they would
reject without doubt They are yet full Of
maphood and Iaboring assidiously to repair
their broken fortunes, and having been
blessed with genial seasons, have assurance
Of plenty for the coming year. May kind
! Providence and wise counsels give them de
Iverance from all their troubles and com
Portable assurance of good government ere
long, which as a people they so richly de-
serve.
/ North Carolina and Tennessee, mother
and daughter, occupy the identical same po-
/ sition. The people there say Holden Is
/ worse than Brownlow, and promise forty
| thousand majority for Seymour and Blair in
/ November next Ex-Governor Vance, Gen
Leach and others are doing good service to
the cause of freedom and good government
/ in the old North State Barbecues and
speeches are very frequent. l was at Mack
vile on the 10th inst. Vance was there,
and by his eloquence and sound logic en-
chained an audience of 1000 voters for two
hours Again he addressed the people OF
Statesyille on Wednesday last As the re-
suit of my observations l may safely say
have never seen a community so wide awake
to their interests as old Rip, and she may
safely be counted decidedly Conservative
when the day of trial comes.
l cannot close this hurried note without
mention of another excitement, second only
to the political North State-it is the black
berry excitement Some how or other it oc
CURED to the good people of Stokes, Forsyth
Davis, and another county or two, that the
fine crop, which nature had sent them with.
out cultivation, Of bluck6erries, should be
saved. Whereupon all hands, male and
female, vent to work in proper season, saved
and dried berries enough to give return Of
from $4,000 to 100000 in cash to a few
counties. When 1 was there the fruit was
being shipped. saw two car loads go of
from Guilford, and heard of one house II
Salem having I,lOO barrels The whole
country was full Of Yankee spectators buy
ing up the article, which commands readily
twenty cents per pound. Several fortunes
have been made by the lucky ones, who
bought up the dried berries from first hand:
early in the season at nine and ten cents
I hare dweIt on this trade to awaken oul
people to the fact that bIackberries are val
liable, our country producing the very fines
in the world They should be saved an

W. w. BRowN.-This fellow, who was
here several weeks ago, like all other lackies
of the genus radical, trumped up in regular
bureau style, upon the testimony of negro
hireings, some serious charges against seve-
raj Of our most worthy citizens, and has
made a statement of his stewardship to the
Legislature. All we have to say, at this
time, in connection with the statements
made by Brown, if we have been correctly
informed, is that they are unworthy the no
tice of any one, and that the Legislature

WE Ask FOR INFORMATION. Our readers
are aware of the fact that we have, time and
again, called attention to the fact that the
road across the Hatchie bottom east of Stat
Iers ferry, is the most miserable highway in
this or any other county in the State; that
owing to high water and the impossible
quagmires 1t often occurs, during the winter
and spring that for months at a time the
ferry cannot be reached by a vehicle of any
kind going from Bolivar; and that, as a con
sequence, hardship is directly inflicted upon
the public and the trade of this place made
to suffer to the extent Of thousands of dol
lars. The road leads directly from Bolivar
to Purdy, is one Of the Oldest and most i'm
poatant in the county, and is soon to become
as it used to be, United States mail route
We have often spoken of this road before,
and now ask for information: whose duty is
it to have the road complained of put in
order2 The duty certainly devoIves upon
some one Who Is it? We know that the
demands of the public are good, and that
they have right to complain of the road
through Hatchie bottom east of the ferry
above named. If any enc will answer the
questions asked, we viii more than willingly
print the information in this paper. Who
viii do it? IF it is the duty of those who
hold the charter, say so; if it is the duty of
the County Court to see that it is done, say
so; if it is the duty of the overseer of the
road, say so. The public highways Of a
county should be kept open at all times, es,
peciolly those that lead from one county
site to another. IF improvements are not
made on the road referred to it is a safe
thing to say that for fully five months of the
approaching winter and next spring no We
hicIe can come from or go to the ferry four
miles east of Bolivar

Now You Understand.

AT a meeting Of the Conservative Club at
the Court room yesterday the following
"eye-opener was unanimously adopted,
and now composes part and parcel Of the
Constitution of the Club
Whereas, the object Of this Club seems to
have been somewhat misunderstood, and
whereas it is a desideratum with its mem
bers that amid the new and strange policies
Of the present time their action may not be
exposed to future misconstruction,
Re8OIUed, That the following article be in
corporatcd into the Constitution as an amend
ment thereto:
ARTICLE II. It is not the intention of this
organization to connect itself with or COM
NIT itself to any political party or to the
doctrines Of any at this time, but believing
that our own individual interest and welfare
as well as that of cur section and the coun-
try at large will be subserved by the success
Of the Conservative or Democratic party,
and approaching the necessity Of organiza-
ton in all political action, we have formed
this club its object being as stated in the
second article of this Constitution, simply
and purely to cooperate with said party ia
the ensuing election for President and Vice
President, endeavOring so far as may lie in
our power, to encourage and aid said party
In popular governments the bare expression
Of opinion of one citizen only has some
weight, and the appreciation and good will

duence not to be despised Deprived, as
most of us are at present Of political rights,

selves to any political policy further than
this that in whatever lawful and honorable
manner we can labor we will do so for the
election of Seymour and Blair

Horace Greedy, editor of the New York
Tribune, and radical alarm cock generally,
says that if Grant does not carry Connecti-
cut, New York, New Jersey and Pennsyl-
vania he is certain to be beat" This is a
frank acknowledgement of the weakness of
the radical cause. Greedy knows that it is
impossible for the radicals to carry a single
one of the States named above, and is only
preparing way to let the Republican party
fall as easily as possible.

Some sappy headed fellow who styles
himself "a plain farmer, and whose farm
is doubtless more prolific of grass and weeds
than anything else, has published small
pamphlet for the purpose of convincing the
world that Abraham Lincoln was the mystic
rious Cog of the Bible What nonsense !
The Aoalanche seems to think that the
clippings of e a plain farmer" are huge
things on ice. Well, they may be, but durn
our old roller mould if ne believe it The
idea of an inspired man, two thousand years
ago, bothering his brains about modern
day radical is ridiculous in the extreme.

Hon. j. w. LEFTwIcH.-This able Con-

and addressed hundreds of his political
friends. Comment is useless. All that is
necessary to say is the truth-and the truth
is Leftwich viii carry this county by one

always right and now that the right man is
in. the right place, she viii strike right square
at the ugly mugs of radical thugs, and give

every little pig on your place; feed them
well and give time and attention to the
raising of your own meat, and see that you
have few hundred pounds to sell. By rails

can stop the importation of Northern meat,
