wards this object, but much remains yet to
be DONE. -
In its former contests the party has secur-
red the great boon of suffrage to all, and
with wonderful magnaminity has prescribed
hone. 1t has given to the masses system
of popular education rapidly being carried
| into effect, which will place within the
reach of all that great boon, knowledge.
Now it remains by another great victory to
secure forever those great blessings, and to
restore peace and order to the State. Our
majority is secured. For this we have no
fears. The only way by which our enemies
! can hope to defeat us and place the loyal
people in a state worse than the darkest
DAYS of the rebellion ever sa.. is to stir up
discord among Us, and by discord cometh
defeat.
Then let us, each and all, adopt as oul
motto, "harmony and victory" and let u'
remember that a glorious triumph in August
lies our only hope for peace; that on ou'
own success depends our lives and liberties
that if we wish to enjoy these blessings and
secure them to our children we mus

We were also surprised at another state
ment, made by Gov. Vance, which we stand
ready to prove Surely the government has
been a Ruccess. since it has made white
man's-party man declare in favor of social
equality. For Gov. Vance said that he was
in favor of ''any kind of equality, THAT
YOU MAY WISH !" Stick a pin there, Wes-
tern Republicans.
The men, who were nominated, have no
prominence save Judge Fowle and Sheriff
High. Both will be defeated and find a
happy resting place forever. It is their last
run in this county.
Ia Altogether the convention was failure
The speech Of Gov. Vance was failure: The
nominations were afailure. The delegates,
including Amos Byrd, were failure and

A Word of Advice.

In some Counties ofathe State, wherethe
Republicans are in q minority, we have been
asked the question Us TO What is the best
policy to pursue, for in such Counties they
areexposed to outrage, tyranny and OPP
preston, without redress of grievances
Now We say this to them, that they must
compact and keep together their organiza-
tion, and hold up the banner of thcir1aity.
But at present it is life and death struggle
with bad men, who have usurped control OF
the opposite party This has been done
against the rcinunstrancc of the better men
OF That par'y, many of whom have refused
to act with it any longer. 80
Therefore, we, as all other Republicans,
being friends topeaec, believing that the
maintenance of the law is of the first impor-
tance, say this: ....
That where truly Conservative man,
who is not Republican in all respects, de-
clares himself candidate, as we have refer
red to--a man, who can be. trusted, (and
they are few and far between in these days, }
TINT the party support him, not as a Re.
publican, but as peace man, and one who,
though mistaken in some respects, is iii the
main better than the candidate of the Ku-
klux Democracy. . a."e. ..sta
There may not be more than two or three
Counties where this course could be pursued
with success. But we arc willing to see it
tried IN one alone, to show that ours is q
party of law and order, and that the opps-
sition is one of violence, prejudice, and
murder t- rr - I-i

Harmony and Victory,

" United VIC stand is motto peculiarly
applicable to the Republican party of this
State to-day. Too much cannot be said to
impress upon all Republicans the necessity,
the absolute necessity, of united and Wig
orous support of our nominees
b. Personal considerations and individual
preferences should not be allowed for mo-
ment to be thought of in the great contest
before us. Our object is not to elect this
man or that man, but to place in power loyal
and honest men. who will carry out the
great principles of the Republican party
civil and religious liberty, education of the
masses, and peace, law and order. We
should ask not the question, is he car
pet-bagger, is he native, is he white or
black; but is he honest, intelligent, loyal
and Republican. This is the object
before us.
Let oil remember that the thorough and
practical reconstruction of this State is not
completed. 1t never will be completed till
treason is truly made odious-till every citi-
zen is made secure in his life, property, and

Charges of Germ ntion

We referred on yesterday to the charges
of corruption preferred against members Of
the Repu blican party In so doing, we
deemed it duty to refer to the charges
which have been preferred against prom
inent Conservatives in relation to the same
matters, and did so in self-defence.
But in promising this editorial, we will
say that, young as we are, we have known
the time, when such charges preferred on
either side would have evoked personal
conflict, and live to lament the degeneracy
of the present day.
Nevertheless what remains TO US to do q
Shall we quietly submit to hear the whole
Republican party, because of % few men, de-
nounced through the length and bread th Of
this State, as party of corruption and dis
honesty? Where is the proof2 What in

now. that if the Republican party is guilty
that the Conservative party is not likewise
guilty?

Errors in T,eriSlatiOH.

We see that Major W. M. Robbins, of
Rowan, has been renominated for the Senate.
Now VIC do not believe that he dishonesty
received the $40 from Senator Stephens, or
that he borrowed the $50 from Gen. Little
field from any bad motive, because he repaid
it, but we have this to say that as the
Republican platform denounces errors in
legislation by the late General Assembly,
that we consider the receipt Of the 500 by
Mai. Robbins from the hands of Mr.. Ste
phens, us an e,rr in legislation, and most
heartily denounce it.
We do this moreover because this error
cost North Carolina about $4,000 in an
investigation, and is on par with othel
extravagant acts committed by the same
body. We, therefore, advise the people Of
Rowan and Davie to keep Mr. Robbins. at
home. Such errors in Legislation, which all
Republicans denounce, are calculated tC
increase their taxes and ought not to bt
overlooked. ..r...
And while they are attending to economy

mind them that one Crawford a journey.

But, in casting our eyes over the house, we
saw the reason. Stephen Rand, (col. dem,

and we saw him because he sat in the centre
of the hall, and all around him there was a

Vance is good looking fellow. He

He pronounced the State Government a

He did not say one word about 1864. His
government was certainly failure; and II

bar OF railroad iron had been laid since the
Republican party had been in power. How
about the Chatham, the Western extension,

Governor was thinking of the Tennessee

all the iron, and which Mecklenburg county
