The returns ofthe late North Carolina
election show how great has been the
political revolution that swept over that
State. Grant had 2S,9O4 majority in No
yember, 1872. The returns from all but
eleven counties give the following result
for Superintendent of instruction in Au-
gust, 1874: r
Pool, Democrat S94i5
Purnell, Republican, 7S,0lS
Democratic majority, II, ,4S2
In the eleven counties to be heard from
the Democratic and Republican vote was
nearly even in the Governors election
of 1872. The majority for Pool in the
whole State will not be less than 1SOO0
Compared with the Governors election,
this will showa Democratic gain in North
Carolina of $4,000, and, compared with
the Presidential election, of $4,000. The
gains in the Legislature have been equal
ly satisfactory. The following is COM
parison of the last and the next Legisla-
ture:

THE STATE PRINrING.

On the morning of the 9th inst, the
proposals for State contracts was
opened by the board of commissioners
of State contracts. On printing the
bids we're alt very low, the lowest being
that of Thomas $. Pinckard. Under
the new law on State contracts, written
by Mr.. Oberly--except the portion of
it in relation to binding, copying and
distribution Of the public documents
the State will save thousands Of dollars.
This law electually prevents such
combinations as have heretofore been
made between parties bidding for the
printing and binding, aud gives TO the
State all the benefit that can be OBJ
tanned from competition. For instance,
under the bid Of Pinckard, the State
will pay for type-setting less money
than Pinckard will pay to his printers
Facts ike this have lead Us to believe
the contract system pernicious, and
in the language Of the platform Of the
Independent Reform party Of this
State, "a fruitful source of corruption
and fraud, at the expense of the labor
ing and mechanical classes"
Let US look at this a moment. Mr.
pinckard offers TO set the type of bill
and OF book forms for twenty.eigh
cents pei thousand ems. Fine.
charge for this work, done at Spring
field, thirty-fye cents per thousan,
ems. Now, it must be clear to the ap
prehension Of every one, that Nj
Pinckard having bid less than he mus
pay printers at this time, must eithe
cut down the wages Of the printers, re
sort to SHARP practice" 10 mako him
self whole, or oise lose a greu, loal 0
money. He cannot, a. several of tn
other bidders nIg Che have done. max
up the loss in composition in the prof
on presswork, since his bid for press
work is also very low-at a losinj
rate. How Mr.. Pinckard will "gct GU

commission in a negro regiment, and
was called by his brave black comrades
Captain Potter
Mr.. Potter, the editor of the Bour-
bon wing of the Democracy OF South
ern Illinois, is just man, and we are
sure that Capt. Potter, the arm bearing
comrado Of negroes, was also
inst man. If he vas, Capt. Potter,
the arm bearing comrade Of negroes,
while leading his brave blacks to battle
for the Union, agreed with Gen. Sher-
man who declared that if the negro
was required to thrust the bayonct for
the Union, he would be entitled to cast
the ballot.
If, then, Capt Potter was SO un Dem
ocratic as TO advocate the arming Ct
negroes; so careless Of the good opin
ION of good Democrats as to carry
sword in a negro regiment; 50 just as
TO demand the ballot for his brave coll
orcd comrades who had used the bull
let in the conquest Of the South, why
is it that Mr.. Potter now denounces US
os not Democratic because We believe
the negro should be educated What
a change las come over the spirit OF
this mans dresmi What a difference
between Capt. Potter, the comradc Of
negro soldiers, and Mr.. Potter, the
comrade Of Bourbon Democrats
We are surprised.
Does not Mr.. Potter know that if be
were to visit the South, and the
knowledge that he had been captain Of
negro company in the war Of the re-
bellion accompanied him, the Democrats
of that section Of the country would
not associate with him? He might
d-nouuce the radicals, he might lie
nounce the negro, lie might advocate
population, and still he whould b.
Stunned like social loper. Capt
Potter-the "nigger csptain'-would
bocast out Of society by the Democrats
They would stand afar of at his ap'
proach, and cry after him: "Unclean
Unclean - And yet Mr.. Potter now
joins with the ultra Democrats OF Hi

spirit of prescription. This man. the
