The Richmond MayOralty Case.

| Edio1S Wilmington Daily Journal, Hi!mirq-
ton. N. c.:
GENTS There is question between parties
was first decided by Underwood, afterwards by
Chase or not. Will you enlighten us and oblige
A. SUBSCRIBER.
This case was decided on the 30th of
March by Judge Underwood, in the United
States Circuit Court at Richmond, adj
versely to Mayor Ellyson's claims. On the
31st Judge Underwood granted an in
junction restraining Ellyson from acting
as Mayor. He declined to give an appeal
on the ground that the Injunction was
only temporary to continue until the next
term. Ellyson refused to obey the in
junction in order to get the matter before
the State Courts upon writ of hnbeaS
corpus, supposing he would be ARE ted.
On the 7th of April, Chief Justice Chase
heard at Chambers motion to dissolve
the injunction. He, however, rendered
no decision and the case went over to the
next Term.
On the 18th of April the rival Mayors
held conference and in view Of the delay
before Chief Justice Chase agreed to sub
nit the case to the Virginia Court of APP
peals. 1t was to hear the decision by this
Court that attracted the great crowd to
the Court room which caused the terrible
calamity at the Capitol. The Court of
Appeals unanimously decided in favor of
the constitutionality of the Enabling Act,
under which Elyson held his office, and
Chahoon made no further contest.
Chief Justice Chase never rendered any
final decl sion in the case

Mr.. L. T. Odds was put in nomination for
Attorney General, but declined. Mr.. S.
F. Phillips was then nominated, which he
accepted in short speech, giving his ad-

Major Richard @. Badger made speech
saying he was in hearty cooperation with
the Republican party, and made an attack
upon the knights of the Golden Circle, .

Gizzard French occupied much of the
time of the Convention in repeatedly pro-
posing three cheers for S. f. Phillips,
which Phillips doubtless enjoyed.
The Convention adjourned, with three
cheers for Phillips and the Standard,
which Phillips doubtless enjoyed.

I like its prospects and business,

Cook OF Johnston renewed the motion, and
wanted it acted on at once. He desired to OPP
pose the CHAIR appointing tbs committee on per-
manent organization, but that he could not be
heard for the noise.
Then Galloway raised a point of order-the
matter had been disposed Of; he understood the
matter; he had seen disappointed aspirants to
Office before.
Cook insisted on his motion. Much confusion
prevailed.

Cubhn Affairs.

Notwithstanding the assertions Of the
Spanish authorities the Cuban cause has
not vet been decided, although 1t Is cer-
tain that the patriots have made but little
headway during the past twelve months.
With the advent of the summer season
hostiIities viii necessarily be almost en-
tirelv suspended and this will allow short
breathing spell to the harassed natives
II they are wise they will do all that is
possible to streng CITIZEN themselves, while IN
summer quarters, for vigorous re-openlng
of the campaign as soon as tho cooler
season of the year shall set in.
According to the Spanish statements
the instruction has been on its last legs q
great number of times since January lsS
of this year, but the patriots are not yet
CONQUERED. Their situation is, IN some
things, similar to that of the South during
the war. Shut in and beleagucd on every
side they have but little communication
with the outside world and therefore the
statements of their enemies is about all
that can be gathered relative to the pro
press of the war. According to General
Jordan, now in New York, the Cubans,
during the past year, have barely held their
own. Numerous small battles have been
fought in which the fortunes of war would
seem to have been about equally divided
Tne great drawback is, in lack of organi-
cation, each patriot chief fighting for him
self and, in general, refusing to unite with
the others. They are very destitute OF
arms and ammunition and are always
eagerly looking to the Junta in this coun-
try for fresh supplies. Gen. Jordan's OBJ
ject is to collect supplies and to recruit
force with which to hold and to capture
some seaport through which stores from
abroad can be afterwards transported to
the interior.

Colonel DOCkeFV.

Colonel DOckery, as we learn from the
Ro6esouiap, is about to begin an active
canvass in his own interests as the Repub
lican candidate for Congress in this Dis
triot He will leave nc stone unturned tc
secure the domination. He speaks this
week in Richmond county, and next week
in Robson. There IS much commOtiOn III
this latter county, and primary meetings
are being held to appoint new set OF
delegates to the Nominating Convention,
and to secure by fair means or foul the
vote of Robson for Dockery.
If Jones has invaded the Territory vE
Dockery and secured the pledge of Robe
son, Dockery has given him Roland for
his Oliver, by an endorsement in Bruins
wick county, literally boarding the lion III
his den. This seems to have been achiev-
sd by the New Hanover emissaries OF
Doekery. Jones must keep sharp look
out upon active agents in this city, whose
frequent visits to Sampson and neighbor
ing counties portend mischief

honors are metaphorically pulling each

are busy looking to the chances of a com
promise upon their favorite. Judge Rus
sell and Gizzard French have strong
friends who are not without hopes of Sc
curing their nomination.
Another trouble presents itself. The
nomination of Harris, colored, at Raleigh
may arouse the latent ambition of some
of the negro politicians. If the colored
Republicans successfully claim q candidate
in the Fourth District, their right here
cannot be denied, for they furnish four
ffths of the votes which the candidate
receives. Then, too, we have colored mer
the equals of any of their white competi-
tors. With the exception of Colone
Dockery, Price Of this county is superior
mentally to any white Republican named
for the nomination, and would make alto
gether as worthy u member. The same
also may be truthfully said of Leary, o.
Cumberland.
It is long time in the life of the cam
paign before the nomination, and there
will be several shuIlles of the politca
cards. If the game stands six and six, lei
Dockery remember that Jones is lucky il
turning Jack.

Let By-Gones be By-Gones.

We sometimes fear that there is danger
OF a revival Of old party iealousies among
US. 1t is hard to forget that there were
such things as Wings and Democrats IN
old times, and that bitter fight was all
the time going on between them. 1t is
useless to think now, and more than use
less to say, that one party more than the
other was responsible for the war and its
results. We know very well that nearly
every man who was Wing thinks that the
secessionists caused the war; but we know,
also, that those who were for secession
are convinced that if firm stand for
State rights had been earlier, the result
would have been different, and that If 1t
had been put off longer, the same condi-
ton of things would have resulted that we
all deplore now. We earnestly deprecate
any revival OF old party issues. 1t is not
worth while even to ask whether man
has been a Wing or Democrat Let by
cones be by-gones, and let there be but
one party among the old citizens of the
State, and let that be a Virginia party.
Whatever is most for the interest of the
State should be done, and that party
should be aided, which will do most to aid
as in developing our State, and is in the
least degree identified with the consolida-
ted usurpation of Congress,

Davidson College.

We have received catalogue of the Of
fcers and students of Davidson College,
for the present year. The Faculty en-
brace the names of ten gentlemen much
distinguished in the departments over
which they preside. Among them we re-
cognize that of Rev. CHARLES PHILLIPS,
D. D., Professor Of Mathematics and En-
cheering, formerly of the University of
North Carolina. We have had some ex-
perience and we believe he is equal to the
best as an instructor. He is also q ripe
scholar. Colonel WILLIAM J. MARTIN, also
of the University Faculty, is the Chambers
Professor of Chemistry, Natural History,
and Geology. Col. MARTIN was the sue
cessor at Chapel Hill Of the lamented DIR.
MITCHELL, and he filled the Chair with
credit to himself, and to the satisfaction
and advancement of the students.
There are one hundred and twenty-five
students in attendance, about one-half of
whom are from North Carolina, the others
coming from the vnriona G~~41--- ot--'~~'
We hope continued prosperity and in
Gre ased usefulness may crown the efforts of
the Trustees and Faculty of Davidson.

Governor HOlden's AdmsnIstratIon.

Every Republican meeting, from those
of the various townships of the different
counties to the State Convention. has
unanimously endorsed the administration
of Governor HOLDEN. We deaire no bet
ter issue than this to go into the cam
paign-no better platform could be an
nounced upon which to rally the people of
North Carolina. We would care for no
name, no formal en1nciation of principles
under which we could fight. Let US meet
the Radicals just here. Upon our banners
let us write, in bold and defiant letters,
| Opposition TO GOVERNOR HoLDEN's AID
MIN1sTRATIoN.' Under that sign We will
conquer.
In the history of American politics we
are satisfied there was never SO complete
and damaging a failure rs that which has
characterized the administration Of affairs
in North Carolina during the past two
years-a failure due more to want of in
tegrity than ability. No party ever had a
State in more complete control than the
Radicals have North Carolina. From his
official position, personal indEence and
peculiar surroundings, Governor HOLDEN
has been more powerful in shaping the
policy and directing the affairs Of the State
! than generally falls to the lot of one man.
Twice in. the brief space of four years OPP
portuniIies have presented themselves to
HIM to be of incalcnlable good to the
people of North Carolina which seldom
occur once to any man. What use he has
placed them to impartial history will re
cord when the prejudices and passions Of
the hour have passed and he shall be
Judged by the effect of his course upon the
future prosperity Of the State.
| But what honest man can throw aside
all political bias and endorse the admins
tration Of Governor HOLDEN What man
or it's emoluments can conscientiously
vote to return members OF the Legislature
favorable to him p? Judging merely by
what has been done, what safety is there
for property, what hope is there for pros
perity, if he is sustained in August Can
tax payers deliberately vote their endorse
ment Of Governor HOLDENs administra-
ton Can those interested in our unRn-
ished railroads do 1t -? Does any honest,
law-abiding citizen desire q repetition OF
the reckless and corrupt legislation of last
winter Does any one desire retention
in Office of the many reckless and corrupt
| officials Do the Woodworking people,
white and black, desire continuance OF
our ektravagant system of government,
including the costs and charges allowed
to clerks, sheriffs, magistrates and consta-
bles Can our people pay the taxes ne
cessary under the present system ? Are
ttoy not becoming poorer every year and
the debt becoming greater, although the
taxes have been quadrnpled
What is embraced in a resolution en-
dorsing Governor HoLDEN's administra-
ton ?
The Legislature, with Governor Ho1-
DEN's sanction, appropriated twenty six
millions of dollars for Railroad purposes,
not TO be issued in installments as the work
progressed, but as rapidly as the bonds
could be engraved and signed.
Governor HOLDEN appointed Boards Of
