M,cRARr nECLrrEs.

The Hon. Geo. w. McCrary in lot
ter published yesterday in the Gate
CITY declines the nomination for Con.
gress received one week ago. The
letter of declination recites the cir
cumstanccs in full, and fairly and
sqnarely represents the facts. Ii is 4
manly letter, just such as We should
expect from tho gentlemen. He plain
~ asserts what he had before an.
nounced to friends that he would not
accept If nominated, as a de,nier resort
even, unless the various candidates
would all consent to his nomination at
such time as ID appeared they could
not agree upon any one else. Van
Valkenburg did not give his consent
nor did his friends, at Fairfield, when
Mr. McCrary was nominated. Messrs
Gear. West and Hurley did. On &C.
count therefore Of Van valkenburg's
failing to make the nomination unani.
nous, Mr. McCrary says that he must
decline. We think he does right. But
now how stands the case7 We must
say that the man most injured is the
Hon. John Van valkenburg, whose
action renders necessary the re.asem.
bling Of the convention to make a ne v
nomination. We think Van has made
a great mistake. We had expected
that alter the convention Van and his
friends would see the true course and
publicly declare their consent to tho
nomination Of McCrary, but the op.
poriunity is now lost and we think
Van has sinncd away his day of grace.
These are times when according to q
much approved sentiment, tho Office
should seek the man and not the man
the Office. No man should stand IN
the road of the best interests Of the par
ty. Men are nothing as against the
success Of correct principles. 1t not In
frequently happens that men who have
done what they could TO get conven.
tons get up. for them, by months and
months Of patient labor, and sough,
Office for years, instead of Office
seeking them, think they are robbed
because . convention does not finally
accade to their wishes, which have, al
as i were. assumed the nature of dc.
mands. Mol These are emphatically
times when the seekers for honors arr
not always successful, as against those
who lnodcstly do not seek them.

Two more Southern States have
been carried by the opposition. The
other day 1t was Kentucky, now North
Carolina and Tennessee have been
heard from. The election in North
Carolina is for Congressman and q
Legislature. Everybody will remem-
Der what stress was placed on the re.
turns from this election in August,
1872: and how accurately they fore
told the events of the fall. 1t Is fair
to abide by the same liberty of proph-
csying to day. County officers were
chosen in Tennessee, and the oppOr.
