NESSRS. EDiTORs: see IN the last
issue Of your paper communication over
the signature Of PRO Bono Publico' which
calls for notice from the undersigned.
The writer says that the time for united
action on the part Of tie conservatives is
near at hand. Then | ask in all eandor Of
whom has that party heretofore been COM
posed? The1wo old parties united-thc
wings and democrats. This position Isup-
pose will be admitted. Then | ask Why has
the old democratic party been ignored in
the late County conyentions Could there
be no democrat found to fill any place Of
honor or profit? Could this omission be
the result Of accident! No, that could not
possibly have been the case. 1t must have
been deliberate, premeditated design on
the part Of the Old Wing party. Had
there been only few pominatiOns made BY
the Conventions held ,then II mi1S hast
been so; but as there have been l7nomi-
nations and out Of that number how many
Old Democrats do yon suppose there are !
Not one The whole number are old-linc
whigsl Now this is 80 very apparent that
the blind may see, or = wayfaring man tho
fool may understand the manipulation ol
this so-called Conservative party. Now il
these two old parties are to remain a unit
and present one unbroken front against The
Radical party in Orange. is this the way Il
effect it? answer no, it is the very re-
yene. Here the writer cxonerates the de-
mocrats from blame in case division in tli,
conservative party defeats in this county,
and cites the Judges Of the Supreme and
Superior courts TO show that the old whie
party mainly has contributed to the ranks
of the Radical party, but We think he see,

GOV. HoLDEN's PROCLAMATION

LINcoLNToS, n. G., June Is, 1870.
Editor Southern Home.
Dear Sir: write TO correct two OF the
Utereoses i'm GOV. Holden's Proclamation.
Ii il not true that woman was ravished
i'm Lincoln county by fifteen men: There
Is not the shadow Of foundation for IT.;
not even Il rlimor.
IL Is not true that q colored man was
tied to tree and his wife rlvished. | en-
auired to-day of d prominent Republican
and two respectable c0lored men, who say
that they have not hearda rumor of such
things. / am at loss to know who has
imposed on Governor Holden's crtdulity.
The other charge rs to a negro being
shot Il true. He was met in the road late
at night, by unknown parties, who told
him to halt; instead Of doing so, he ran,
and they fired ut him with pistol, infiict-
ing a wound on his leg. The negro says
he knows the parties, but refuses to tell
who they are.
Please publish this and correct these inn
POSITIONS, which have been made by de-
signing men, OH Gov. Holden.
Very truly, ID. ScIIEScK.
We publish the above to remark that the
man who, at this juncture Of affairs, can
seek TO perpetrate serious hoax on the
Executive, like the above, Is a contempti-
bic wretch whose neck deserves q calf
rope; and II Coy. Holden has been, as he
seems to be, mi<lnformed in his where
ases,n we hope, in every instance he will
have the a'liar' arrested and sent to the
Penltentiary. Governors, like Editors,
are sometimes liable to be imposed upon
by lying scoundrels who think they SET
fun in their yillainy. No doubt but the
fellow who told the Governor the above
lies was scalawag who wanted troop:
sent to Lincolnton to keep the witches
or him. LET rs have peace and the
Truth with ii.

DEMOCRACY.

The Courier-Journal holds the following
language in relation to the Democracy, in
response to the New York Times:
The New York Times declares that olll
effort to nationalize and lberalize the Dem
ocratic elements has been attended with sun
dry manifestations of success; but it regards
these as mere surface Indications and thinks
that, in spite Of our preaching and teaching,
the Bourbonism of Democracy will remain
in the ascendant, as a matter of fact, and
that upon all essential points it will continue
to rule the party.
That our fight against ignorance and error
and in behalf of free opinions and national,
predetermined and patriotic spirit has resulted
ment of liberalism is sufficiently obvious
But the Times is mistaken in characterzing
the response which we have stirred up as
superficial and polite, and il gives us more
than our due when it speaks of our course as
bold and hazardous. 1t is never hazardous
to speak the truth, and we are disposed to
clam no especial courage for having made
an earnest and industrious rather than a
bold effort to awaken and arouse that
dormant love of country in the hearts of our
fellow citizens which disasters and oppres
sions have so long silenced. The people of
the South, as a class, are plain people.
They love their country. They have not
forgotten the lessons left by the founders of
the Government, But party is in power
whose aim seems to have been the erasure of
all the old land-m from the popular mind,
the oblteration of all the old law-marks from
the popular sight, the overthrow of all the
old patriotic sentiments from the popular
BOSOM They have made the flag, which so
many Southern men have followed, symbol
of persecution They have altered the Con-
stitution by violence and fraud and got
new set Of sectional. campaign, partisan
songs in place of the old, free-born, national
music. We have simply touched the old
chord and, lifting up the true flag in the
darkness and in the wilderness, have breath
ed hope into the numbed and stricken spirit
of the South by proposing that, marching to
the music of the Union, we plant it once
more upon the affairs of American liberty

We think the amount of travel over the
railroad from this city, which is to be open
in a few weeks, will be much larger than is
generally anticipated, and predict that it will
create some surprise Belfast is tavorablv
situated rs point for a terminating road to
gather up the travel from II large section
Not only will passengers from the western
cities be drawn from radius of fifteen or
twenty miles on either hand during the
winter season, when steamboat travel is slls-
pended-but it will afford the best outlet for
the populous seaport towns of the bay, and
for u long distance eastward A small
steamer, running from below Ellsworth to
Belfast with landings at Mount Desert,
Sedgwick, Deer Isle, and Castine would find
a sheltered route and good business, dur
ing the season in which the Lewiston is off
the route. Indeed, twenty years ago, even in
the summer season, when both the Boston
and Portland steamboat routes were run, and
with no communication with the interior, the
steamer L. +. Secor made profitable route
of the one referred to. The touching here of
the steamer Lewiston would Obviate the
for such line during the usual
boating season. Our people are turning
their attention to these matters, and will
soon be prepared to move. There are other
in respect to the business of the
railroad, which will be offered at future
time.
