Nothing is further from our purpose
than to Steer at those Democrats who thus
far have decliaeil to support MIR. Greeley
Or to attempt to Grago4n them into &C
quiescence i'll our views.
1t is true that our opinions i'll relation to
the necessity for Democrats 20 give their
cordial support to Mr.. Greeley, and the
obligation resting upon them as members
of lhe Democratic Party, to support the
nominees put forward by the National
Convention are perfectly clear and
we'll deHneu.
We are not prepared, however, 10 say
that we are without synpa ny for those
men who find it difficult thing to get
over the antipathies ca a lifetime. There
are good and true men who hesitate to
support Mr.. Greeley, but who, never
thcless, if convinced that the cOurse they
are pursuing will result in the reelection
of General Grant, will reconsider and yield
their support to Mr.. Greeley as a choice of
evils, ii YOr no other reason.
There is great deal OF - human nati4re''
in men Of the class to which we refer,
AID we think they are to be influenced
rather ty aIguments addressed to their
REASON and by appeals 10 their patriotism
than by taunts, and jeers and ridicule.
AS for Mr.. Blanton Duncan, who has
put himself so prominently forward in the
matter, candor compels us to say we have
but little, il any, confidence in the genu-
ineness of his patriotism G. tkc honesty of
his purpose.
Nor do we feel disposed to Judge char
itably of the motives Of a man like Alex
ander HI Stephens, of Georgia, for giving
the weight Of his name and influence to
movement, that if it succeeds, VIII result
in alying his followers with the enemies
of the South and in a separation of them
from the cause with which the great body
of our peo"le Sympathize and to the sue
cess Of which they look as the only hope
for relief from intoierabla burdens.
Nor will the South readily forgive hi.
Stephens for his action in this matter
For, no matter how it may be sought to
be disguised, it is undeniably trae that
every vote taken away from Mr.. Greeley
affords aid and comfort to General Grant.
Mr.. Stephens was opposed to the policy
that resulted in the n0miLation of MIR.
Greeley, and he seems determined to force
the people to yield their well-settled opin-
ions to his own personal feelings. To
such course our people will not kindly
submit.
But while these are our feelings toward
the protested politicians and leaders who
have this Louisville Convention in charge,
we are conscious of no such sentiments to-

Election EiSnreS.

The vote for Acknowledgement in 1870,
the Ship and Phillips vote, was made the
basis of calculation in the late election,
and thereby some false conclusions were
arrived at. One was in regard to the
county of New Hanover, which has been
put down in all the calculations as having
melted loss OF. 400 votes for the COnser-
vatives, TIE Republican majOrities being
SS4 in 1870, and 1853 in 1872. But the
truth is that there has been no loss, but
gain in this county. Every one at all
acquainted with the facts knows that i'll
majority was owing to local split in that
party which resulted in general swapping
Of votes by both factions, with the Conser-
vatives. Besides this there were 934 more
votes polled i'll She late election than i'll
1870, most Of which were those OF Republ
cans who staid away from the polls i'll
1870 There We're 4,941 votes polled in
1870, and $50 polled in 1872. Taking
the votes from 1868 up to this time there
has been an actual gain Of at least 100 for
CIlt NOIlStIN ttCINto'
We notice that the last RObeSOhIu1, in
publishing the vote of the Sixth Congress
siOnal District, calls attention to the fact
that Hon. L. 5. Ashe made a gain of 400
votes on the Ship majority of 1870, and
Immediately under that statement pub
fishes the vote of this District, showing that
the Hon. \. NJ. Waddell's majority (72S)
and adds, : the majority Of judge Ship
two years ago i'll the same counties was
1,49I," which, unexplained, would do in
lstice to Col. Wad iell.
While this statement is correct, SO
far as he comparison with 1870 is con-
cerned, any Inference that Col. Waddell is
unable to poll the full party strength, is
entirely unWarrantcd. Indeed, in New
Hanover county, CaldWell's repo- ted ma
iority over MerIimOn was 1,313 votes, while
McKay's majority over Waddell was only
! PA votes. In the aggregate vote Of the
District, Waddell's majority was, if our tis-
ures be correct, 72S votes, While that OF
Nerrimon was 55S votes.
Ii must also be borne in mind as affect
ing the number of votes pOied in the
country OF New hanover that its largest
counting precinct has, since the election
in 1870, been made part of the county Of
Sampson, Tue figures show that Colonel
V-addel has a li2ht to be proud of his
popularity, and demonstrate the fact that
he can poll the full strength Of his party
and q little l.lOf,e
An analysis Of the en,ire vote OF the
Staten this way comprising the votes for
Governor, Congressman and Legisla' Ors
in the several counties respectively is in
terestin@, but We have neither time nor
space to go into It. it is a short and easy
method, 10y the way, in estimating the vote
of the State, to begin with the assumption
that in order to overcome the majority in
the Second District, the other seven Dis
tricts Tlust average a majhrity Of $50
each lDl tie Conservatives. They will do
more than that sor Greeley.

saEsIWeiE'S Majority.

The Raleigh papers inform US that at
last the retui rs from ali the counties i'll the
State lave come, in, and that by the show
ing they make Caldwell has received anna
jOrity OF , ,0G0 votes. =
Asthese returns, however, are At best, on
ly semi~otfcial, and as they have been so
contradictory, We may be pardoned for
placing little confidence Ill the result they
purport to Z" figure out" The footing up
of the actual official county returns cannot
be ascertained until the Legislature meets,
as the law requires them to- be sealed up,
directed to the Speaker of the House OF
Representatives, and to be b. him opened
i'll the presence Of the two lIollse,, "a the
General Assembly.
We presume, however, there will be no
material variation from the reported majori-
ty, and that we may safely count upon
having to prove that more than two thou
sand of the votes counted for Caldwell
We're illegally counted.
Can we do this?
We do not propose to go into details, for
NdIIOllS ICC1SO1lo, OIiG ILLS VIC W ~ SIl:tG
if the allegations in regard to the election
beSustained as to three Eastern counties
alone that we can name, it will leave AIer-
rimon with majority of near one thou
sand votes!
This leaves untouched the numberless
frauds in other portions Of the State. The
task thus becomes an easy one, not Only to
show that Caldwell was not elected, but
that Merrimon received handsome ma
jority Of the legal votes.
We call, therefore, upon men Of ali par
ties who desire to preserve the freedom Of
elections and the purity Of the ballot-boX
in North Carolina, TO investigate and re-
port upon every case Of fraudulent or lille
gal voting. We say we call upon men of
al parties y to do their duty in this matter,
for the Eea2Qn that We are working for
the good Of the whole State and not for
any mere partisan advantage.
In our next Legislature We have til
bunal that will decide the contest honest
" in accordance with the law and the Les-
timony. We call upon good men every
where, then, to see that all the testim ony
is presented.

Carteret County.

We are called upon again to return our
thanks to an esteemed friend at Sanders
Store, Carteret county, for club of twenty
subscribers to the JOURNAL. This is the
third OF fourth club for which we are in
debted to him. If the JOURNAL had such
a friend at each postoftice in this section
its circulation would reach ten thousand
subscribers, and its Influence, commercial
and political, would be vastly eXtende |.
Our lists have expanded 50 much in
Carteret county, we trust We are not too
vain in expressing the belief that the
humble Efforts of the JOURNAL have con-
tributed their mite toward the proud result
attained by the noble Conservatives Of
Carteret in the ate election. Anyhow, it
gives us pleasure to cultivate the acquaint-
ance and acquire the confidence and
friendship of such people.
