State unrepresented for years.
The votes Of New England thus deprived
North Carolina of the senator Of her choice,
and compelled her to send another in her
stead-another who in our late contest was,
like Vance, rebel, and fighting rebel, but
had not served In Congress before the war as
Vance had, though the latter remained faith
full to the Union till after the close OF his term.
I protest against the dIsfranchisement OF a
State, presumptively of a number of States, on
ground go narrow aud technical as this. The
fact that the same Senate which refused his
seat proceeded to remove his disabilities after
that seat had been filled by another, only
serves to place In q stronger light the indigni-
ty to North Carolina, and the arbitrary, capri
clous tyranny which dictated 1t.

no sting, while triumph would rank with
those victories which no blood reddens, and
which evoke no tears but those of gratitude

Gentlemen, your platform, which is also
niue, assures me that Democracy is not hence
forth to stand for one thing and Republican

in politics, as they have always meant in the

thing, namely, equal rights, regardless of
creed, or cline, or color. I hail this as genu.

it is the great Morton to be induced to stop

the city on business, the "crowd" at the
Opera House at no time during the afternoon
exceeded 600, OF whom about so were ladies
and half of the rest had been attracted by
mere curiosity.

would have been incredible, that in city Of

fame of o. p. Morton, on tie eve of the pres
idental election, should be able to attract an
audience of less than 700 people. The apathy
of our people in regard to political matters is
as inexplicable as it Is astounding.
We make no pretension that, had the dem
