4 BLOODY QUARREL RggwFnN soLDI1Fs AND 0rn'
A passenger on the train from Lincolnton has
lust given me the following 1acts Late YESTERDAY
afternoon fight occurred In a barro0m in Lincoln
ton between a citizen and soldier. The soldier
was worsted in the 1ght and LEFT, but soon re,
turned with several OF his comrades Then several
shots fired, which resulted In slightly wound
ing one Of the soldiers and citizen who was stand
ing by but who had nothing to do with the difficulty.
While the friends OF the wounded citizen were
conveying him home they met several soldiers -
Drew @ his niso and pIesented It at the head Of ths
wounded man. His friends implored him not to
shoot and at their urgent solicitation he Withdrew
his weapon, and the whole affair passed Off.
The difficulty had but little political significance.
The excitement subsidized. and all parties went on
to the political meeting where Governor L. B. Vance
and others were then speaking.

COMPANY SHOPS, N. c., July g. 1872.
The final conservative mass meeting OF the CAM
paign was held at this place to-day within sight
of the grove in which two years ago occurred the
outrages upon the innocent people OF Alamance
county. The citizens pointed to visitors the very
trees on which the poor fellows charged with being
Ku Klux, but whose real offence was conservatism,
were hanged by the thumbs The remembrance OF
siby accounts in some degree for the numbers and
enthusiasm OF the meeting to-day. Over two thou

The Split In the Republican Ranks I'm

WILMINGTON, N. c., July 81, 1872.
The excitement over the election in this city ia
confined to republican ranks. The conservatives,
being greatly in the minority quiet but firm and
vigant. TO the large republican majority Is at
tributable the trouble among the party here.
The disafIecton and positive split In their ranks
began in 1870 and was productive of such beneficial
results TO the conservatives that year that 1t has
never been healed, and has broken out with re-
newed force this campaign
The squabbe Is over county ofices, particularly
that OF Sherir-a very fat onice The interest CEN
tres upon that and they care comparatively little
about the State ticket each faction being partlcu-
larry desirous to have candidate elected Sheriff,
which they are determined to accomplish by any
means The conservatives will take advantage Of
this by an exchange Of votes with the party having
no candidate for Sheriff. The "swapr business IS In
high favor, and IL Is thought, will be worth at least
three hundred votes for MerrimOn. In New Hanover,
Waddell, the Congressional candidate will be bene-
Hted yet more, and Is certain to be elected.
There Is no probability OF o compromise between
the republican factions.
No serious fears are entertained OF disturbance
tomorrow; should there be any Is more likely t0
