GoLDsRoRO, N. c.. June 23d, 1870.
Editors Wilmington Journal We sent
you a hastily prepared report of the pro
ceedings of the Conservative Convention,
which met here yesterday TO nominate a
candidate for Congress, in which we neg
lected to mention this speeches made by
Mr. W. A. Darden, of Greene county, and
W. E. Hill, OF Duplin, The former gen
tleman was called whilst the Committee
was out advising Col. Hum phrey of his
nomination, and, of course, his time was
limited, bHt in that short time he made a
telling speech. and displayed knowledge
of the true issues that will make him in
| the coming contest thorn in the sides Of
any adversary, Mr.. Hill came out boldly,
in his own words, as "a Conservative Re-
publican" He showed some of the inner
workings of the Radical party and avowed
himself their determined opponent hence
forth and forever. Where he meets the
Radical candidate on the stump there will
be futtering among the wounded, as he
tells plain things in plain way calculated
to damage his opponents,
To-Day We nave visited several Dlanta-
tons along the ''Neuse" and Little" riv-
ers in order to ascertain with certainty the
damage sustained by the late freshets.
This damage is chiefly on the Neuse. and
by computation will amount to loss of
twelve hundred bales of cotton, with a
considerable quantity of corn. All the
crops not touched by the food look we'll
and are growing finely. In some places
the lice have appeared, but as yet have
done no damage few hot sunny days
will drive them to shelter and they will
effect no injury.
This town is growing very fast notwith-
standing the dull times. The burnt dis
trict is fast building mp in good. substan-
| tial brick stores, most of which will be oc-
cupied for the Falli trade and bring the
scattered business more to the centre
again.

The Outlook.

From every direction comes cheering
news. The good and true people of the
State have been aroused and on all hands
are putting forth their strength to kill ont
Radicalism in the land. Already have the
Republicans become demorahzed, the
front rank of the party, the carpet-bag-
gers-going down from political view.
The late action by the Governor, IN calling
ont troops to suppress disorders that could
easily be put down by strict and Impair
tial administration Of Justice is great con-
fession of weakness. Troops are needed
at the polls to intimidate voters and force
Is to be used to assist fraud and chicanery
to gain the day. Holden is determined to
ruin or else to quite bankrupt the State.
But the very means that he has adopted
to secure him in place will but accelerate
his downfall. The people are not intimi-
dated, even by the formidable warllke
preparations Of our gallant Governor. On
the contrary they have become aroused
and are everywhere, throughout the land,
denonncing the corruption and tyranny of
the States Executive. In August they
will express themselves at the ballot box
and next winter, with a Legislature OF our
own, all true and loyal men, we can defy
Holden and his partisan friends through
out the State.

EVENING SESSION.
The Convention was called to order b
the Chairman at 2! o'clock
The Committee on Permanent Organiza-
ton reported, nominating Maj. John
Hughes, of Craven, as President, and one
Vice President from each county of the
District represented; Col. s. d. Pool. J.
a. Bonitz and q. S. Mcdaniel as Secre-
taries.
The President addressed the Convent on
explaining the political condition of the
country, and urging the duties of the
hour. He showed up the organization
and action of the Radical party the dan
gers into which they were pIunging the
State, particularly as regards the armed
forces which Gov. Holden proposes to put
in the field to control the elections He
urged that the strong moral power of the
ballot-box should be SO marshaled and
pressed into the field as to rout the foe
completely and achieve glorious victory.
Fight the bRyonet with the ballot-the
great American freeman's weapon. He
urged that all should arouse and for the
next two months labor for the country
and overcome the paltry majority which
was against the Conservatives at the last
election.
We cannot attempt to follow him in the
warm, earnest, glowing speech, which was
received with great applause by the Con
VentiOn.
Mr.. Benz. Askew, Of Jones. submitted
series OF resolutions defining the manner
in which the voting for candidate should
be conducted, which were adopted.
Mr.. +. "a. Wright, of Wayne, moved
that the President appoint a Committee

Curious Things to h nnXv

Besides the fact that ice is Lighter than
water, there is another curious thing about
it which persons do not know, perhaps
viz. its purity. A lump of ice melted
will always become purely distilled water
When the early naVigators of the AIctlc
seas got out Of water they melted frag
ments OF those vast mountains of ice called
ice-bergs, and were astonished to find that
they yielded only fresh water. They
thought that they were frozen salt water,
not knowing that they we're formed on the
land and in some way launched into the
sea. But if they had been right the re
sula would have been all the same. The
fact is, the water in freezing turns out OF
it all that is not water, salt. air. coloring
matter, and all impurities. Frozen sea
water makes fresh water ice. If you
freeze basin of indigo water it will make
it as pure as that made OF pure rain water
When the cold is very sudden these foreign
matters have no time to escape, either by
raising or sinking, and are thus entangted
with the ice, but do not form any part Of
Wilmington journal., 1870-07-01

We were very much pleased with tho
feeling of harmony and earnestness which
pervaded the deliberations and action of
the Conventions which recently assembled
in Fayetteville. When good men are
sought after and nominated without their
solicitation and are forced to accept
against their wishes, from O sense of pub
lie duty, we feel that the day Of official cor
rnption and inefiiciency is passing away.
The gentlemen selected as the Conserva-
tive standard bearers in this Congressional
District, and in the Sixteenth Senatorial
District, are all men Of capacity and stand
ing. Neither of them was desirous of the
nomination which they received, and the
Senatorial nominees accepted the trust
with reluctance. but with the full deter
mination to succeed We hope Colonel
BENNETT will also feel constrained to &C
cept. No man was ever more compliment
tally nominated, and none will find warm
er and more enthusiastic support from the
people.
The greatest interest was manifested In
the proceedings of both Conventions. The
county representations we're very full, and
the hall was crowded with anxious and
enthusiastic listeners. The addresses OF
Colonel MoKoY, of Sampson, Maj, Poisson,
of New Hanover. and Mr.. WALL. of Rich
xnond, during the sessions of the Conven-
zion, were listened to with the greatest at
tsntioR, and met with the warmest endorse
Rents

Swift Galloway, candidate for Senator in
the State Legislature for this District
From his looks and manners we presume
he has already entered upon the canvass,
which We hope he may be able to conduct
to q successful termination.
The Neuse bridge, which was reported
SO auch damaged, is but slightly Injured,
and now that the waters have abated will
soon be in as good order as ever. The
bridge on the Raleigh road was moved
slightly from one of it's abntments, but it
has been secured, and we drove over it
to-day.
Although things look better in Wayne
than we expected to find them, deep
ploughing, home fertilizers, and steady
labor under intelligent direction are show
ing on the prosperity of the county, and
must continue to do SO as long as they are
pursued. A large orchard of peach trees,
covering about forty acres. which were
put out in the Spring of 1869, have been
lately leased to a party for ten years at
one thousand dollars per annum. This
lies about a mile from Goldsboro', and
considering the fact that they have not
come into bearing yet and cost very little
to the planter, it is thought to be an ad-
vantageOns lease to the owner. No doubt
the leaser knew what he was doing and
has made q safe calculation. Some re-
mains of the great strawberry crop of 1870
yet hnger around, as we can testify from
the quantities we have seen on the tables
Of our friends. One party has shipped
about 35, 600 quarts, while many have
shipped smaller quantities. With the
recollection Of the sweetness Of the de
lIciOus berries and cream we close.

ticipate in the meeting, which was carried.
The following counties were aseertsined
