Worth makes the MAJ, &c.

Jonathan Worth, quondam Governor of North
Carolina, by the permission OF Andrew johnson,
has perpetrated joke. For the purpose of ia.
ciiiating affairs in that State and getting the
government into working order SO that the pro-
visions Of the reconstruction laws shall be
obeyed and the Legislature placed in position to
ratify the Fourteenth Constitutional Amend
ment, without which the act of admission would
not be complete, plan ofovercoming an embar
rassment was rcsortcd to which had been tried in
other Southern States. Between Legislature
elected under the provisions of the new Consti-
tuition, and Governor about to be superseded,
from whom no sympathy could be expected,
there could be little chance of setting affairs in
operation smoothly and satisfactorily. The plan
was, therefore, resorted to of removing the old
Provisional Governors, by virtue of the military
authority vested in the commanding General,
and of appointing the Governors elect to be Pro-
visional Governors instead. This has been done
in most of the Southern States ready for recon-
struction. The new PROFESSIONALS get the State
much easier in order the Constitutional Amend
ment is adopted and then. throwing of the Pro-
visional Governorships, the new incumbents are
inaugurated under the State Constitution.
Against provision like this, Governor Worth
demonstrates. Kept in place by military force,
he objects to being removed by the authority
which sustained him. Still he declares that he
acquiesces in consequence of the presence OF
military force. This Is cool thing for hot
weather.-PA PAladelphiG Inquirer

Murder in WiIkesbOrO'.

An atrocious murder was committed in
the town of Wilkesboro' on the 18th instant.
On that day the newly elected officers in
Wilkes, assembled at the county seat for the
purpose of qualifying and entering on their
duties. 1t seems that Harrison Stahy, with
three other colored men became intoxicated
and engaged in an affray with each other,
urged on by Lee Gilreath and other whites.
This man Gilreath told one of che colored
men that If he would kill Staley, that he
(GilreathD would pay him for it, but failing
in inducing the colored man to commit the
murder, he struck Staley on the back of the
head with stone of five pounds weight,
breaking his skull and killing him instantly
Gilrcath mounted his horse at once and
escaped, though the murder was committed
in the presence of large number OF persons.
One object of the affray on the part of Gil
reath and his friends, seems to have been to
involve the newly elected sheriff, j. w.
HAYES, who is obnoxious on account of his
Unionsm, in difficulty.
Gilreath is described as desperate,
about six feet high, weighing 1870 pounds,
and about 30 years of age.

Presumption of the democratic p.rtv

The Democracy pretend to think that they are
soon TO be reinstalled in the government of the
nation and placed in contrel of its great desti-
nies. 1T is strange that such hope should ever
be entertainer by this party. When we consider
1t as perfectly well understood throughout the
civilized world that it was this same Democracy
that initiated and prosecuted with an carpestness
as terrible as it was wicked, the dreadful war of
the rebellion-that it was Southern Democrats.
TO man, that waged this war, and that IL was
Northern Democrats, and they only who sympa-
thised with their Southern brethren in this stu
pcndous iniquity, and did all they dar.d to do to
encourage and help forward this wckedness:
when all this is remembered, it would seem now
that this enormous conspiracy and struggle
against the life of the nation has been mainly
overcome and crushed, the party that instigatcd
1t, and Is responsible for it, would hasten to hide
Its head, and submit quietly to the shame and
contempt whichit 50 richly deserves of mankind.
Reasoning from the common principles of human
nature, we should certainly have never dreamed
OF an uprising SO sudden and SO pretentious BY q
party which, as party, We deemed to be charac-
terized bya criminality for which we can think
OF no parallel in human history. This false De.
mocracy has struck at the very life of the nation.
and nearly succeeded in its fell attempt at de-
struction. But being foed and conquered and
Frustrated by the good right arm of the patriotic
and loyal of the land, this self same Democracy
would now assume to be placed in power over
their conquerors; tear down the Government
that has bravely withstood their diaboical and
murderous efforts, and enthronc itself over the
bleeding anc afflicted nation it stabbed well-nigh
to utter death. In all sobriety we ask if there be
any parallel to assumptions like this, outside of
that mystery OF iniqulty" to which the Scrip
lures point, and which, In its bare faced impu-

The Press on seymour and Blair,

The New York Herald of Saturday says The
democratic party has withdrawn itself within its
own lines, and nothing is left to the people but
to choose between the old sympathizers with Sc
ccssion and The men who have stood true TO the
Union and fought out the war against rebellion
to successful termination : So far as
the State of New York is concerned we have no
doubt that her fifty thousand majority cast last
year for the democratic ticket will be entirely
wiped out next November, and that the State

be likely to take with it nearly all the Assembly

march to the sea-" He was, before the war,
one of the most unbending and notorious "Abo-
litionists" in Missouri, and he fought in the
war as he had thought and acted for years. His
detection to the Republicans was caused by dis
appointed ambition. Under the administration
of Lincoln, the Blair family demanded everything
that was at the disposal OF the Republican party.
They become so offcncive, that it was necessary
for Mr.. Lincoln either to lose many friends or to
lose the Blairs. He was compelled to choose,

NO. 29.
Democratic Impudence. /.

II Is singular spectacle which the attitude Of
the two great political parties presents to the
world to-day. While tue Republicans have been
steadily at work ever since the termination Of
the war to reconstruct the shattered Union on q
satisfactory and enduring basis, opposed In every
movement by q refractory and stubborn Execu-
tive, the Democrats have been constantly com
planning because the Union was not restored;
and when it comes to q vote OH the re admission
of the rebellious States, the Democrats to o man
vote against it. Nevertheless most of the States
are re-admitted and their Senators and Represen-
tatves are taking their seats on the floor Of Com
gress. sE,stN ts 81 ss.5t ~.
While this is going on, and the civil authori::
ties are being reinstated in place Of military, and
preparstions are In progress for the speedy re-
admission Of the remaining Southern States, the
Chairman of the National Democratic CunveR-
tion-the nominee for the Presidential chair
stands up and denounces the military occupa-
tion ofthe South, and declares II TO be one Of the
missions OF his party to restore the civil author
ity-a fact which is nearly accomplished by his
opponents in spite of democratic antagonism and
protests
The war was brought upon the country by the
teachings and mismanagement Of the Democratic
party. 1t was successfully prosecuted m spite
of them. The putting down of the rebellion
rendered military occupation necessary-and, OF
course, its continuance necessary until the civil
authority could be safely and eectually restored.
From beginning to end, everything has been
met with Democratic fault-fnding and opposi-
tion. They were opposed to having the rebellion
put down. When the rebellion was overthrown,
they complained because the Union was not re-
stored When the movement Is made to restore
the Union, they oppose it and vote against it,
When the States are readmtted in spite Of their
opposition, they complain and call it an outrage.
And while peace and harmony are about being
realized, they stand up before the world and talk
as If nothing had been or was being accomplish
ed, and the restoration OF the Union and, saliva
tion of the country depend entirely upon their
accession to power.
These p,otters of ruin, these growlers and
grumblers, these dead weight do nothirgs and
pseudo-patriots, seem to expect that the Ameri-
can people are about to fly to them for rescue
from evils nearly overcome which democrats
brought upon them, and which democrats never
meant should be put down. A more shameless
cry Of stop thief never escaped the lips OF fu-
gitive criminal; and never did criminal meet
with swifter and more retributivc justice than we
believe awaits the democratic party at the hands
of an indignant and outraged people.-Nationat

The SenatOrshiD.

The Hon. John Pool and General Joseph
G. Abbott have been elected United States
Senator'S The elections give unusual salts
faction to the party; and as for the State,
represented than she will be by these two
distinguished gentlemen. Mr.. Pool is well
known among our people His public life
for twenty years past is II part of the history
of the State. His efforts in favor of al ualo
rem taxation, when candidate for Governor
in 1860, dealt the first damaging blow to
slavery which it had ever received at the
hands of any public man in North Carolina
since the days of Castor. Mr. Pools staunch
Unionism during the rebellion thoroughly
identified HIM with the loyal people of
North Carolina and his warm support of
the Reconstruction plan of Congress gave
him claims upon the friends of the Govern
ment which could not be overlooked Mr..
Pool is thoroughly committed to carry out
the Radical measures of Congress He will
not betray the trust confided to him.
General Abbott is a soldier who served
with distinction In the Union army. After
the close of the war; he located in New Han
over County. where he engaged extensively in
the lumber business General Abbott took
an active part IN the organization of the Re-
publican party in this State, and was Presi-
dent of the famous September Convention.
Tie General is gentleman of scholarly &C
complishments, ready debater, of fine ad
dress, thoroughly versed in political litera-
ture and parliamentary usages and most
unfinching Radical He will not be back
ward in pressing the claims of North Caro-
lima and of North Carolina men.
The Republican candidates defeated for
the position, are every way worthy and well
qualified Their particular friends pressed
their claims with great zeal, but seeing that
they were overruled, acquiesced checrfully in
the result, and made the nominations of
Pool and Abbott unanimous.

In peace we should prepare for war. To
prevent war, there should be sufficient
force to crush the first symptoms of rebel
lion. Then let the Legislature provide at
once for thoroughly organizing loyal
militia. The Senatorial contest is over now
and the organization of the militia should re-
ceive immediate attention. It is by far the
most important bill which will come be-
fore the Assembly. 1t is of vital importance
to organize at one. Much time has been lost
already and we cannot afford to wait much
longer Let loyal men enroll themselves under
loyal officers for the protection of themselves,
their families and of the State. North-Car

ernment, fourteen thousand rifles and seven
batteries of artillery to arm her militia.
Place these arms in the hands of loyal men,

will be general sense of safety and security.

The Sentinel's Slang about the Bond
holders.

1t is striking evidence of the party mad
ness of the Sentinel, that its random tlrusts
at what it calls the BondlioIders, if they
could be effective at all, would be the utter
destruction of some of the most important
and vital interests of the State.
Pray, who are the Bondholders whom this
slang -whanging Sentinel would expose to
public ridicule upon party catch
Would it muddy its own fountain, or does it
prefer dirty water? Is the Sentinel so gno-
rant as not to know, that to the extent of
many millions, these bonds are the property
and the chief resource of several of the lead
ing railroads of our State2 Or is it like
the viper in dcg-days, so blinded with the
excessive venom of its political poison, that
it strikes wildly at every thing that crosses
its own Shiny trail, and is of sufficient mag
nitude to awaken an echo in its dull and
snaky ear? Does it wish to break down and
destroy the great interests of the people III
the progress, completion and success of the
Wilmington, Charlotte and Rutherford Rail-
road, the Western Railroad, the Fayetteville
and Western Railroad, the Northwestern
Railroad, and the Chatham Railroad ?--all
of which are interested in, some almost de-

of the State, as involved in the just and wise
policy commenced by the Convention, and
that will undoubtedly, at a proper time and
in proper way, be carried out by Rcpub-
lcan Legislature.
Ii so, it shall be known to the people who
are the destructives that would thus pull
down the very pillars of our settled pros
