\ Touching scene.

touching scene is related by gentle
man as having occurred during the decora-
ton ceremonies yesterday. A little girl
entered the cemetery carrying wreaths of
beautiful flowers, and FASTENED to the side
where the Confederate dead lay, and pro-
ceedeQ to place wreath on each grave
trlond of hers approached her saying.
-" But, Susie, those are the rebels graves -
{" Yes, L know it, but my pa was soldier,
and died in Libby prison. and is buried
down South ; 1 so much hope some little
girls there will strew flowers on his grave.
L thought [ would bring these and put
them on the rebels graves. Maybe some
of them have little girls at home. yon
you"
There was more humanity in the few
sentences of this little girl than IN all the
resolutions and orations of thousand
decorations. Let the visitors TO Holly
wood Cemetery never fail to scatter flowers
over the graves of some Union soldiers,
for In so doing the resting place of this
little girls father will sometimes be deco
rated. -LGfayehe (had) Dispatch.

District Convention

AS our readers we'll know the Executive
Committee for this Congressional District
have called Convention to meet in Fay
etteVille on the 23d of this month. The
place was regarded rs nearly central and
rs accessible as any other point in the Dis
trlct, and besides upon that day the Six
teenth Senatorial District Convention,
composed of delegates from Cumberland,
Sampson and Harnett, would assemble in
Fayetteville. We are certain that ample
and cheap transportation would be furnish
ed by our various lines of steamers from
this city, which would enable the delegates
from this entire portion of tho District to
reach Fayetteville without much trouble
and with little expense.
We regard this Convention as most I'M
pOrtant The people Of North Carolina
are becoming arous 4 TO the great lmpor-
tauce of the ensuing election, and one Of
the most wonderful revolutions in politics
ever witnessed in this country is about to
occur. From the mountains to the sea-,
North Carolinians are bucklinG on their
armor for the conflict. The people are
becoming alarmed at the corruptions and
proaigaey in every department of our
State government. Lawlessness, extrava-
gauce. official corruption, the prosti-
tuition Of justice, the Ioaa Of State
credit, the destruction of our System of
public schools and internal improvements.

echoes of bad goyornmont-have nerved
good men to the determination to save
their State from utter ruin. The more

County Convention.

In view Of the meeting of I'll District
Nominating Convention in Fayetteville on
the 23d instant, We think the recommend
alton that County Convention assemble
in this city on Saturday, 18th instant, very
proper, and respectfully urge our fellow
citizens to meet on that day to appoint do!o:
gates to the District Convention, and to con-
suit together upon general and local polit-
ical affairs Owing to the shortness of the
time, we hope oar friends will take some
trouble to circulate the notice into va.!o4s
portions of the county, so that as general
attendance as possible will be obtained.
Il is very inport2ut that New Hanover
should contribute her mite to the great
political revolution abont to sweep over
the State.

inevitably follow a continuance of the
present government

inevitably follow continuance of the
present government.
Honest and respectable people, white
and black, will not long submit to be ruled
by such vagabonds as have assembled at
LumbertoD, nor will they make themselves
parties to the disgraceful scenes there en-
acted by electing their nominee. Self
respect and self-interest will break down
the political barriers which have hereto
fore divided the races, and intelligent and
respectable colored men will not endorse
such actors or their tools. We have reason
to believe on this account, as we'll as from
the great change which Radical pollution
has brought about, that the nominee of
the Fayetteville Convention will be elected,
if the selection is made with judgment.
Care should be taken, therefore, to put
forward some gentleman who has the con-
fidence of the people of the entire District
and who will make q thorough and bold
canvass.
We have our individual preferences
among the several gentlemen whose names
are mentioned in connection with the
nomination, but can see no good to result
from publishing them, and it might be
hurtful to the harmony and good feeling
now existing throughout the District. 1t
is our purpose only to urge the nomina-
ton of that person whose principles,
talents, character and popularity are such
as will be best calculated to insure success
and advance the interests of the party and
the good of the District and State. We
have several such gentlemen, the nomina-
ton of any one of whom will meet the
hearty approval Of the people Of the
District.
We trust that every county will provide
for full representation in the Fayetteville
Convention. When its importance. not
only in the District election, but in the
general and county elections, is fully con-
sidered, We believe that no constituency
will fail to be represented. We again
urge its special Importance upon our
friends in the several counties. Let there
be a full Convention.
