TERRIFIC SronN.-A correspondent in
forms us that tremendous storm of wind
and rain passed over a portion of Russell
county on Tuesday last, the I'd instant,
doing great damage wherever its force was
felt. On many farms houses were unroofed,
trees uprooted, fences blown down, and
not stack of hay, oats, or fodder left stand
ing. The farm of Colonel R. E. Withers,
near Rosedale, received full benefit from
the gale, more than thousand panels of
fencing and all his stacks of feed being
Frustrated. On the farm Of Mr.. Hum
phries, adjoining, new two-story framed
house, just covered in and partly weather
boarded, was blown down and completely
demolished. Fortunately no person was in
it at the time. The gale lasted for two
hours, but the full accounts of the devasta-
ton caused by it had not been obtained
when our informant's letter closed. We
are glad to learn, however, that no lives
were lost as far as is known.-Lyachburg

found to be mixed up in most suspicious
manner. Better keep quiet, Mr. Sentinel
or your friends will be. angry with you for
exposing their iniquities. We will say that
no act of corruption or dishonesty has ever
vet been proved against any Republican of
fcer of the State ofNoRTH CAROLINA, nor
is there any reason for the slightest suspl-
cion. So much for charge the last.
And now about supporting the principles
advocated by the WALKER party. The
STANDARD has always favored the Consttu-
| ton of NORTH CAROLINA. The -Constltu--
| ton under which VIRGINIA seeks admission
| into the UNION contains the same provisions
as that of this State. 1t is supported by the
WALKER party. 1t supporting the Constitu-
ton of this State we, tsco gears ago, support
ell the same principles which we noao sup
port, and which are supported by the WAL
KER party We have not altered in the
least. Yet we can honestly praise the
WALKER party. Whya Because it has
come to us and supports the principles OF
oar party. This proves that we have al
ways stood just where we stand now, and
entirely answers all the Sentineps questions.
We have devoted so much of our space to
this article simply because these are the issues
upon which the papers of the sham Democra-
cy are trying to redeem their fallen fortunes.
Let the Sentinel controvert any OF the posi-
tions assumed here if it can. The people
know all the facts and will decide who is
right.
The article although intended more espe-
ciaIly for the Sentinel will also be an an
swer to the Tarboro S0uthe,ner. We cam
cannot afford to reply to each sepa-
rately, as we cannot spare time or space to
reply to e0ey little third-ratc sheet that sees
fit to attack us. When any of these posi-
tions are disproved, not by mere assertions,
hut by arguments and facts, we will take the
trouble to answer our neighhor again.

We see that the Chairman of the State
Committee of the WELLS party has written
a letter to the Chairman of the State Com
mittee of the WALKERS party uring that
the two parties now re-unite in carrying out
Republican principles in the State. To this
the WALKER representative replies by say
ing "the WALKER Republicans left the
WELLS party because they were either
forced to do so, or oppose the policy of the
President. After abiding to the almost
unanimous endorsation of Republican prin.
ciples by the white men of the State" and
asserting that the colored people who were
misled by the Wells leaders, are now flock
ing by the hundreds to the Grant Walker
Standard" he concludes as follows:
''You ask for coalition of the two wings of
the Republican party-I cannot admit that the
party is divided, on the contrary claim that the
Grant-Walker party is the National Republican
party OF Virginia, representing the policy of the
President and of Congress, and as such has no
divisions to heal"
If the sham Democratic papers had the
audacity to deny that the WALKER party
was a Republican party this official an.
noucement, would settle its status beyond
possibility of dispute. Let the people read
and see the statements of the STANDARD
verified by the cficial declaration of the
WALKER party itself.

COlOred Mechanics.

The Raleigh STANDARD has just completed
a new brick building on Fayetteville street,
40 feet by % feet, with a wing SIS feet by 25.
The job of digging the cellar was done by
colored man in three days. The contract
for laying the brick was also given to a col
ored man, who did the job in 18 days and
half. The job for carpenter work was
given to white men, but colored men work
ed with them, side by side. The cellar was
commenced May 9 and the building com
pleted in less than so days. These facts ar
que well, not only for the Raleigh STANDARD
but for negro labor in the South as we'll as
elsewhere.--Neao York Tribune.

facts The very law under which Cd

penal sum of $4,000. 1t is m
the duty of the Treasurer and AudgI

When Colonel HARRIS, with Governs
VANCE and JOSIAH TURNER, tool
ground against Gov. HOLDEN at SalistuH
and endeavored to embarrass his admiEfl
tration, he had not given his bond ar1
the same was true when he pursued
similar course at Wilmington. We lean
that, week or two since, soon after BIZ
return from Salisbury, he offered bond
to the Treasurer and Auditor which thg
declined to accept, and that then, aiG
consultation with the Governor, the
gave him more time to make his bon.
Gov. HOLDEN could, at that time, have a
clared the Office vacant and could have o.
pointed his successor; and he could do til
now, if he thought proper.
The people of the State will zee fOr
these facts that Col. HARRIS is only de fad
and not de .jure, or Iightfully the SupEt
tenden: of Public Works: and that be on
the opportunity he has to make war !
Gov. HOLDEN, to the forbearance of Cd
Holden himself! But it is the duty Of d
Governor to see that this office is 'fIsI1
and while he is willing to give Col. HAn
more than reasonable time to make 4
bond, yet he will not hesitate, if ID
should require it, to remove Col Hand
and appoint his successor. Gov HG
DEN would deeply deplore strife in
Republican party. He will do all be can
reason and justice to avert it; but heBtnII
to maintain all his prerogatives, and, il i
sailed, he will defend himself and appeal
the people to Judge between him and
assailants. He can neither be cajoet /
deceived hy false assurances, or mOyedt
his purpose by threats or misrcpIesentar
of any kind.

Senator Sumner, says the N. 2. Tribune,
Il avowedly earnest in wishing that the
government shall pursue its neutral course
In the Cuban question, and is reported as
favoring an effort to negotiate in behalf of
the Cubans for their purchase of their own
island. His sympathies are cordially with
the patriots in the Antilles; but he does not
disguise that our negotiations with Great
Britain would be compromised by the small
est oineia concession to their cause. These
opinions have been long rumored as those
OF the Chairman of the Committee on For
eign Relations. We do not suppose, how
ever, that the Senator desires the inference

Let every Republican register, and vot'
for Hawkins, the peoples candidate.

A religious paper expresses the opinion that
the death OF Rev. Mr.. Hallock 10 the recent ac-
cident on the Erie Railway was manifestation
of the Divine displcasure against the habit of
smoking. II the reverend gentlemen had not
been sitting in the smoking car he would not have
been killed; if he had not been a smoker he
would not have been in the smoking car, hence
he was killed because he was smoker.
Logic, indeed. Here is some more. If
he had not been riding on the Erie Railway
he would not have been killed. If he had
been prudent man he would not have rid
den on the Erie, hence he was killed because
he wasn't prudent.

We see it stated that the President and
Directors appointed for the Wilmington,
Charlotte and Rutherford Road by Col.
Harris, intend to test their rights in the
Courts. We regret this, first, because they
have not the Shadow of right to act
under Col Harris. and because course of
this sort cannot fail to injure the Republi-
can party. Secondly, there is no necessity
for it, for the question is already before
the Supreme Court on an appeal before
Judge Watts by Col. Harris.
Gov HOLDEN has claimed no doubtful
powers. He has been governed 10y the char
tiers of the different corporations, which Ger
tainly possess more dignity and force than sim
pie laws; and besides, the simple law under
which Col. HARRIS assumes to act does not
give him a shadow of a right to act in eth
er the Wilmington and Charlotte, the At
lantic, or the North Carolina Road. When
Mr.. FRENCH drew the act which constitutes
the amended charter of the Wilmington,
Charlotte and Rutherford Road he submit
ted it to Gov. HOLDEN That amended
charter provides that the Governor shall
appoint seven Directors. Mr.. FRENCH did
not then entertain the slightest idea that this
power belonged, or could belong to the Su-
perintendent of Public Works.
The Governor could not part with these
powers, if he would. He must perform his
duty according to the charters. He owes
this alike to the State and the private stock
holders. If any ill feeling is occasioned, Of
if the Republican party is distracted or in.
jured, the blame will not rest on his shoul
ders.
