The election of Mr.. G.. NJ. Whiteside as
Senator from the district composed of the
counties of Rutherford, cleveland and
Polk, by very decided majority, exhibits
a. most wonderful political revolution, en-
tirely without precedent in North Caro-
lima. The Radical predecessor of Senator
Whiteside was elected by more than one
thousand majority in a total OF about four
thousand votes. The Conservatives carry
the district now by five hundred maj ority.
Rutherford county has been one of the
banner counties of Radicalism-the home
of Judge Logan, Superintendent-of-Pn Public
Works Harris, and the head quarters of
the leading Western Radical paper, THE
Star-we looked for political reformation to
reach Rutherford among the last. The
county gives Whiteside, Conservative,
three majority. It gave Governor HOLDEN
eight hundred and sirtyjt0e majority, and
President GRANT .ttUe hundred and ninety
four majority.
Cleaveland county gives Whiteside five
hundred and eightytwo majority. 1t gave
Mr.. Ashe but two hundred and fifty three
majority, and Governor Seymour three
hundred and eighty-one.
Polk, unheard from, is small county.
Il gave Grant two hundred and ten maj ori-
ty. We should not be surprised to learn
that it had gone Conservative
This election foreshadows the fate of
Radicalism in North Carolina. In two
counties fully one.ftlh of Grants majority
in the whole State has been overcome. In
this wonderful revolution of political SEN
timent we have the echo of the voices Of
the whole people against the corruptions,
extravagances and incompetency of our
State officials against the effort to deprive
the people of their rights by prolonging
the terms of Office against the war meas
ures of the Legislature. It is the begin
ming of the end of Radicalism in North
Carolina. The people will surely rise in
judgment against those who have betrayed
their confidence and blasted their pros
perity.

into them. We were hard lookipg
set of human beings, that night. To
add to it all, our provisions had re-
ceived their share of the flying dust.
We keptthis a secret from the ladies'
for had they seen the preparation of
that supper and its ingredients, few
mouthfulls would they have taken.
During the storm our mules STAN.
peded, and an hoHr or more was spent
in catching and driving them back 10
camp. "All's well that ends we'll"
We got to bed late and tired out We
had no difficulty in sleeping soundly.
One of the ladies lost her hat during
the storm, and the cook in trying to
catch it lost his. -.
June /. Had good nights rest
after yesterdays storm. The morning
is clear, cool and perfectly calm
Breakfasted and broke camp at FIVE
O'Clock and was on the road before six.
Started ahead of the wagons, leaving
them far behind. Saw herd of ante
lopes, not to exceed four hundred yards
distant, but our Nimrods left their guns
in the wagons and thereby missed the
best shot yet offered to them. 1t might
be we'll to add that our sporting men
have not as yet succeeded in bagging
an antelope or buffalo, consequently
our fresh meat has come short of the
promised allowance. The country, to-
day, grows more rolling and more
beautiful-the soil has more apparent
richness to it, while here and there
good grass makes its appearanee-with
trees (scrubby on either side. We
passed, this morning, what is called
'the mounds" There are three of
them, the center one being the largest,
side by side, looking very much as if
they had been cut out of the noun
tains by the hand of man. The noun
taius on either side, with their huge
bluff sides facing the mounds, at the
distance we saw them--about eight
miles, it seemed as if between each
one was pass through the noun
tains. We are gradually approaching
the Rocky Mountains. To-day we
caught sight of the Spanish Peaks, and
the "Snowy Range" where, upon the
summit of the latter is perpetual snow,
plainly visible in the bright sunlight.
, We halted for while at the Iron
Springs. The water is clear as crys-
tai and is impregnated with iron and
sulphur. 1t is considered quite healthy
by people of this section of the coun-
try, but our ladies did not seem to
relish it very well.
In rounding the point Of a hill to-
day, going at the rate of ten miles an
hour on down grade, a valley appeared
to our view, which for beauty and ap-
parent richness of soil exceeded any
thing we have yet beheld since leav-
ing the States. 1t must have been
forty or fifty miles in length and its
greatest width about eight miles,
Here in this valley 1--WE crossed at its
narrowest point, is the best grass We
have yet seen. What a magnificent
farm it would make? Not a house
was to be seen in the whole valley
as far as the eye could reach. From
the high ground here we had full
view of the Greenhorn Mountains,
Spanish Peak and Snowy Range. The
snow-capped summit of the latter fair
ly glistened and sparkled in the bright,
clear sunlight. We are distant from
them at least sixty miles, yet it seems
barely ten miles, the atmosphere is 80
clear.

OUTWARD BOUND.


Come, Laura. patience. Time and spring
Your absent Arthur back shall bring,
Enriched with many an Indian thing,
Once more to woo you:
No storm can shake his constant mind,
Who, meath the 'simla's'' deck reclined.
Still racks his sleepless br aims to find
New verses to you.
Would it were wind and wave alonei-
The terrors OF the torid zone,
The indiscriminate cyclone,
A man might parry;
But only faith, or "tripple brass"
Can help the outward bound to pass
Safe through that eastward -faring class
Who sail to marry.
Forhim fond mothers, stout and fair,
Ascend the tortuous cabin stair
Only to hold around his chair
Admiring sessions;
For him the eyes Of daughters droop
Across the plate of handed soup.
Suggesting seats upon the Poop,
And soft confessions.
Nor are these all his pains, nor most.
Romancing captains cease to boast.
Loud majors leave piquet, to roast
The youthful griffin.
All. all in genial colors show
His fate-'remote, unfriended. Slow
His melancholy" bung allow
His lonely tifin.
Inyain. Unmoved at last as first,
In bland endurance deeply versed,
Your "blameless Arthur hears rehearset
The woes that wait him;
Naught can subdue his soul secure;
ARTHUR will come again." be sure,
Though matron shrewd and maid demure
Move worlds to mate him.
But, Laura, on your side, forbesr
To greet with too impressed an air
A certain youth with chestnut hair
A youth unstable;
Albeit none more skilled can guide
The frall outrigger down the tide.
Or, trimmer footed, lighter glide
Through Guards" or mabel"
Be warned in time. Without trace
OF acquiescence on your face,
Hear, in the waltz's breathing space,
His airy patter;
Avoid the confidential nook;
If, when You sing, you find his look
Grow tender, close your music-bOok,
And end the matter.

of 1852 the President of the Republic went on pro-
vncial tour to give the rustics an opportunity OF
showing their imperiaitst feeling. The reception
had been 80 far chilly, when, suddenly, the tele-
graph apprfsed the country that an Internal ma
chine had been discovered at Marsellles, and that
the .'SaviOr Of Society" had been providentially
saved by the vigilance Of the police. The
announcement produced good impression. The
machine was minutely described. The timid began
once more to tremble. The Presidential tour was
hencef0rth triumphant The police announced the
arrest OF the chief cuprt an individual named Gall
lard. He was formally examined, and It was given
out that he would shortly be brought TO- trial. The
Presidential tour came to close. The Senate pro-
claimed the President emperor the people rati-
fed the nomination by eight millions OF votes and
the plot vanished into thin air. The Internal ma
chine and the machine man. the C0nsplfat0r and his
accomplces, disappeared and have never been heard
