The Beginning cfthe End.

North Carolina already begins to fee
| the beneficial effects Of the result of the
August election. Her own citizens not
only appreciate the fact that the State
! Government will be reformed, but the peo-
! pie Of her States have confidence that it
will be administered with justice, integrity
and economy. For the first time since the
war, settlers are turning with real interest
to North Carolina as q permanent home
Those who have been driven away by the
tyrannies and corrup'ions of Radicalism
gladly return to their first love, and unite
again their fortunes with their native
State.
We look to the approaching Legislature
to foster the favorable opinion now spread
ing abroad in regard to North Carolina
That body must demonstrate to the world
that the Conservative party intends to
place the State upon the high road to
prosperity, and that industrious, law abid-
ing settlers will find within its borders q
hospitablo welcome, an economical and
honest government. and good laws and in
corruptible officials. With these assur-
ances We will not extend our invitations
to immigrants in vain our great resources
will not much longer be idle and unde-
veloped.
Already the tide begins to seS this way.
It behooves the Conservatives of our
Legislature to take it at it's food, and it
will pour stream Of immigration and
wealth throughout our borders.
Notices like the following are beginning
to appear very frequently in the press
They are the harbingers of better and
more prosperous days.

which sits like night mare upon the Land of
Flowers making the state untenable for aught
