RALEIGH. August 2-l P,

hALElGd. AuguSC Il Z. IL
The Republicans here concede the State tt
the Liberals. The only question remaining i:
,, the extent of the Liberal majority. This In
sures the election of Liberal United States
senator in the place of John Pool. The cleo
ton was perfectly quiet and orderly through
out the State. The contest Ia the Fourth Dis
trlct Is doubtfui, with the chances In favor ol
Rogers (Llberal.) The First District is.aso 10
doubt, but 1t is probable that seven Liberal
Congressman are elected.
RALEIGH, August rs 2. N.
Returns come in slowly, though 1t is consid.
cred that Merrlmon is elected by about 5000
majority. The contest In the Fourth Congress
sional District is very close, with about equa
chances of success for the opposing csndi'
dates.
Leach, Ashe, Vance, Waddell and Rob-
bins, Democratic Congressional candidates,
are certainly elected. The Legislature Will
have forty Liberal majority on joint ballot.
WILMINGTON, August 2.
Liberal gains are reported In Carteret and
Rockingham Counties. The Republicans gain
in Caswell County. We are sure Of elk out OF
eight Congressman. Settle Is probably beaten
for Congress- In Lenoire County Merrimon
gains sIxty-two votes. There Is now no reason
able doubt that Merrimon is elected by de-
cistve majority.
The News In New York.
NEW YORK, August 20 P. N.
Dispatches received at the Liberal Republi-
can and Democratic headquarters here To-day
confirm the news of the Democratic gains In
North Carolina, and estimate Merrlmon's ma
jorlty at 10000. The gain of 800 in Rocking
ham County secures the election Of Leach
over Settle in the Fifth District.
The Herald to day says ihat after all 1t Is
possible that the negro counties may give the
State to the Republicans. The Tribune thinks
the returns don't warrant any positive state
ment as TO the result; that gains In the cities
may prove deceptive, being caused by the
return of negroes to their country places CT
registry. The Times special claims that the
State has gone Republican. The dispatches
indicate very quiet election everywhere.
The returns were awaited with much anxiety
here, and the headquarters of the different
political parties were crowded.
Mr.. Greeley goes TO Rhode Island on Satur-
day, where ne will remain q few days.

"THE Clock Struck 0EE."-We are
indebted to Rev. Samuel Watson for a
copy Of his new book on Spiritualism,
entitled " The Clock Struck One and
Christian Spiritualist, " being synopsis
Of the investigation Of spirit intercourse
by an Episcopal Bishop, three ministers,
Eve doctors and others at Memphis, in
1865; also, number Of communica-
tons from deceased persons formerly
well known in Memphis. The book is
certainly the most interesting that has
come under our notice for some time,
and might be considered by some as bor-
dering on the sensational. The subject
of Spiritualism is well discussed, and
DR.. Watson's position ably defended.
To Memphians the book will prove pc
culiarly interesting, as the author is per-
sonally well known to nearly all of
them, and most Of the communications
from the spirit land are from such per-
sons as the late VIM. X. Poston, Bishop
Andrews, DR.. Samuel Gilbert and others.
We ask no one to indorse DR.. Watson s
views, but at the same time think it
would do no harm to read the book.

James M. Harris, Esq.

Mr.. Harris announcement appears in
to-day's LEDGER. He is a candidate be-
fore the people to represent Shelby
county in the Lower House of the Legis
lature, and announces his candidacy sub
ject to the decision of the primary cleo
ton on the Goth inst. In the last Legis.
lature Mr.. Harris served with distinction
as our Pictorial Representative, and
made himself conspicuous in defeating
many schemes manifestly unjust and
injurious to the people of this county,
His Legislative course, in favor of low
taxes of every description, met with the
approval of his constituents, and calls
for the gratitude of the people. Mr.,
Harris is most earnest man, firm in
purposes fluent debater, and one Of the
most earnest workers in the Democratic
ranks. Possessing energy, tact and
great persistency of purpose, most valu'
able, characteristics for public man, he
ia calculated to make most useful leg
islator. Having numberless ardent sup.
porters, he will make strong race, and
if nominated, will in the future, as in the
past, be representative man of the peo'
pie. keenly alive to their best interests
and their answering champion upon all
occasions.

POLITICAL enthusiastic meet
ing was held at the Poplar street market
house last evening. Speeches were
made by General Sale, Colonel Looney,
Colonel Duff, Colonel DuBose, Colonel
Kerr, Colonel Clay King, Major Bar
biere, Colonel Logwood, Captain Smith,
of Upton, and Jack Doyle, the popular
candidate for the shrievalty. In the
organization of the meeting some trou-
BILE arose with regard to the character
of the meeting, whether Democratic or
Conservative, which caused the with
drawal of Mr.. c. A. Severson from the
chair, he proclaiming himself Repub.
lican. If the Democratic party to-day
Endorses Greeley at Baltimore, it of
course ceases to exist as a party, and
becomes merged into the great Liberal
Republican Reform party that just now
seems to be equal to the emergency.
The setting up Of pure and exclusive
Democratic party in Shelby county un-
der the existing state of circumstances
is illogical and funny in the extreme.
Names are nothing at present; princi-
pies are everything.

The decline of &c in New York and a
further decline of l@lc in New Orleans
and s@4d in Liverpool, mentioned in
our dispatches, is attributed to the Agri-
cultural Bureau report, telegraphed yes

vices from Georgia, Tennessee and
Northern Alabama represent favorable
condition Of the cotton crop, and an in
crease in acreage in Tennessee of fif-
teen per cent. over the estimate of the
Bureau. However true the report, fac
tors find no little difficulty in disposing
of the lower grades, and to realize on
the better grades would have to sell at
