invite attention to this one because the noble
man is now prominent before the people.
Such cases should not be confined to New
England or the Yankees. Such success
should stir to emulation the youth of our
land from ocean to ocean. The path to
fame and power is unobstructed, and he who
has brains and nerve may compete for glory.
We would that q manly spirit could be
evoked in our youth who are spending life
for naught or whose talent is wasted in
nameless obscurity. Summons courage, toll
unremitting. Shun, as fatal, all bad habits,
and press on, never batting jot of heart or
hope. r

The Aiams.ace Outrages.

We. are authorized by Gov Holden to
state fhat- he is not in the habit of writing
for the newspapers, for the reason among
Others that he has no time to do so, and We
wish specially to state that Gov. H. did
not write the article in the STANDARD of
yesterday in relation to the recent outrages
in Alamance, referred to in the Sentinel of
last evening.
Very recently in Alamance, colored
man has been cruelty beaten, a colored
woman knocked down and even colored
children struck and injured without cause
by band of desperate and wicked men in
disguise; and these men, to the number of
seventy or eighty, paraded the streets of
Graham on Saturday night last, threatening
vengeance to and firing into the houses of
citizens.
We are authorized further by Gov. Holden
to state that it is his fixed purpose to arrest
these outlaws, and, if possible, bring them
to condign punishment, and he will do this
ii 1t should require thousand men and all
the arms in the State arsenal He is de-
termined to protect all alike, and he would
pursue the same course # those committing
these outrages were Republicans and not
Democrats. The Sentinel seems disposed to
encourage these outrages in Alamance
county. Let Mr. Turner and Mr.. Kingsbury
beware! If they should go so TAR as to en-
courage or advise setiition, or should en-
deavor to cloak robbers and murderers. they
may soon find themselves in the common
Jail of Wake county. Such men will not be
allowed to triie with i,npunity with the
lives and property of well-disposed and
peaceable citizens
