We learn from the HlllsbOro RCcOr-

county Convention to be held on the
Monday following, for the purpose Of
nominating n candidate for the Con-

In this connection we trust it Will

Of no more worthy successor to the Ia

john W. GRAHAM.
The whole State feels an interest in
the filing Of the vacancy in the Or

no nomination will give greater salts
faction to our people everywhere i'll

GRAHAM. His sterling qualities of
both head and heart added to his

:ssVEasNOR EsROGDEN AND TEsE
VACANCY THE ORANGE
DELEG

We candidly confess to great sur
prise at the course Governor Brogden
has pursued in regard to the vacancy
in the Orange delegation. We learn
from the Raleigh Ncars that the Gov
ernor has ordered an election to be
held to fill the vacancy on the six
teenth day of September, Just ten days
after the CO11UcatiO7a meets.
This action of Governor Brogden
shows that we have been wofully mis-
taken in our estimate of the man, but
we have neither tine nor space for ex-
tended comment this morning, Suf-
flee it to say just now, that we regard
this action of Governor Brogden as n
deliberate fraud and swindle that will
and ought to forever damn him in the
opinions of all honest minded men.
We regret most exceedingly to be COM
pelled to express such an opinion of
one Of whom we have, in spite of his
political affiliations, thought SO well
and kindly.

THE ROBESON COUNTY COM
NESSEONEHSS.

The public attention throughout the
State is now directed to the Commits
sioners of Robson county. That they
know their rights and the rights of the
people, and that they dare maintain
them we doubt not. The responsibility
thrust upon them is very grave one,
but we are assured they will meet it
like men A more desperate attempt
to win political power, by force, and
fraud, was never witnessed, and it is
fortunate for us that the men in whose
hands lies the power to defeat it, are
neither to be cajoled nor frightened.
A friend writing to US from Lumber
to us under date of the 18th says: The
County Commissioners never had any
Idea OF reconsidering their action.in the
matter, could not if they wished, and
[ am certain they do not desire to do
so. Sinclair and Nc Eachin have
ertificates of election and will be in
Raleigh on the 9th, ofSeptember, and
the only recourse the Radicals have
will be before the Convention,
when they will contest Norment has
gone to Charlotte, he says to employ

Cassidey's visit was for the purpose of
frightening the Commissioners
and others into reconsider
alton, but thep did not succeed,
and in fact he did not approach any
conservatives on the subject: but
threats were made by Radicals here
that u number would be arrested in a
short time, all of which no one be-
heved.

THE ORANGE VACANCY. WHAT
WILL GOVERNOR BROGEEN DO.

WILL GOVERNOR BROGEEN Db.
A correspondent of the Raleigh
NeaOs says it is reported on the streets
in Raleigh that Gov. Brogden has
from some cause or other concluded
not to order an election to fill the va
cancy occasioned in the Convention by
the death of the Hon W. A. Graham:
The correspondent says further
that if Governor Brogden's refusal to
order an election is caused by
desire to prevent tue filing of the va
cancy with democrat. his non action
will be ample and will not only for
felt all the respect and confidence
which people have hitherto been
glad to accord to him, but will un-
questionably deserve impeachment.
We agree entirely with the views ex-
pressed by the correspondent of the
NeaOs.
If it be true as has been reporte
that the Governor has been officially
informed by the Sheriff of Orange of
the existence of vacancy in the repre-
sentation in that county,,w can see no
proper reason for delay. Governor
Brogden owes it to h mself to take ac-
tion at once The Democratic party
in North Carolina have too much at
stake in this matter to submit in ST.
lence to wrong doing.
We do not intend to charge that it
is Governor Brogden's purpose to Sc
cure the corrupt of the Convention for
his party by violating the law he has
sworn to support, for when we make
that charge we shall follow it with q
demand for his impeachment and
eviction from office. All that we de-
sire to say at present, is that if Gov
ernor Brogden has been officially noti-
fed by the Sheriff of Orange we can
not see what excuse he can offer to the
people Of North Carolina or to the
High Court of Impeachment for his
failure to do his duty
The Democratic party will not per
nit itself to be cheated out of the Con
vention.
Will our Raleigh contemporaries bt
kind enough to ascertain whether the
proper notification has been given ?
COMMENTING upon the candidates fol
speakership of the new House of Re
representatives., the Troy New York
Press says =:
"The contest narrows down to Messrs.
Cox and Kerr and it is especially cred
liable to the party that the contest
ants for this honor are both so worthy
and deserving. TO neither of these
gentlemen can there be personal ex,
ceptiOns taken. But we think on the
whole that Mr.. Kerr will be the sue
cessful candidate. He is sound on al
matters affecting the public and the
party, and is unquestlonably suited
for the Iice and exacting position OF
Speaker His candidacy seems t.
have been more spontaneously anC
widely responded 10 than Mr.. Cox's
Owing to his locality, too. he is likely
to be stronger in the caucus. The
East, as it looks, will furnish the mex
President. The West will not be sat
istied without the Speaker at least -
| Besides this it strikes us that Mr.
Cox's gifts fit him for duty OH the floor
of the House better than for the chair
Next to Mr.. Kerr there is no aspiran
whose election would better satisf,
the party and the nation. But Mr.
Kerr is manifestly the coming man."

their sense of the common loss i'll the
death of the Hon. William A. Graham,

appointed for that purpose, and were
unanimously adopted:
RcsOtued, That in this sad Provi-
dence we recognize public calamity.
The nation has lost a statesman of
world wide reputation-our State its
foremost Legislator-ou county its
most prominent citizen. It is a loss
not soon to be repaired. For many
years William a Graham has been the
man whom North Carolina best de-
lighted to honor-his death leaves her
mourning her noblest con.
The cause of education has lost in
him one of its warmest and most abba
supporters. Pure morality its bright
est exemplar. Every public interest
of Importance and advantage to the
State has been deprived of a friend and
an ally.
Ali classes mourn for him as for a
common friend. ''How is the strong
staff broken and the beautiful rod. !"
We shall endeavor to bow in submis-
sion to the decree that has taken'from
us our head; bgt we will cherish his
memory as a precious possession, and
hand down to our children the story of
his worth-his large hearted patriot
ism---his incorruptible fdelity-his
splendid achievements in the Senate
and at the bar, at home and abroad
and, above all, the stainless record of
life passed in the services of his coun-
try.

FRIDAY. AUGUST 20, 1875
,Cx.E FAST AND THE WEST.
WILMINGTON, N. O.

Tt is not an uncommon thing tohear
white men in the East talk complain
ingly as if their brethren in the West
were willing to abandon them to the
evils of negro rule. But this is GER
tainly unjust. The people of the West
have not shown themselves indifferent
to the fate of their brethren in the
East, Strange to say, if it shall turn
ont that we are still longer to be cursed
with negro rule, the fault is not with
them, but with ourselves, not with
the white men of the West, but with
the white men of the East.
The West has ever responded to the
call of the East. In 1871 when the
vote was taken upon the Convention
question, every Congressional District
west of Raleigh voted for the call.
The Convention of 1871 was killed not
by the West, but by the East. Nor
has the reduction in our majority, un-
der the present call, been made in the
West. Once more the East, together
with the centre, is responsible. In the
West, unless CASTOR be esteemed a
Western county, the county of Mitch
ell alone failed in its allegiance, and
that is county that had given Radical
majority in every election save the
last. How stands the case with the
East and centre? Let Cumberland,
Mecklenburg, Guilford, Alamance,
Wake, Johnston, Wayne, Richmond,
Moore, Montgomery, Brunswick.
Lenoir, Green, Camden, Dare, Tyrrell,
and Washington, answer to their shame.
Ard what shall we say of such counties
as Bladen, Hertford, Jones, Pasquo-
tank and Perquimans that possessing
white maiorities, have always voted
the Radical ticket?
l t is as true of the people OF Eastern
Carolina, as Of Others, that If they
would be free, they must themselves
strike the blow. Never yet has the
West failed to respond generously
an I nobly to the appeal of the East
It is the East that has been untrue to
herself.
Nothing, therefore, it seems to us
can be more unjust than TO impute oui
continued subjectiOn to the evils OF
negro rule, to the ii difference of the
West In fact we think it may be
safely saId that all the beneficial leg
islatiOn We : ave ad since reconstruc-
ton began has been secured by Wes-
tern votes-votes that have never been
asked for in vain. Especially is this
true IL regard to the city of Whining
ton, that unfortunate city, that II the
Legislature shall not be able to save
it lies impotent and helpless in the
tolls of negro rule.
We protest, therefore, most earn
estIy against the injustice of suppOsing
we owe our misfortunes to the indif-
ference of our brethren of the West.
We must come nearer home.

FLOWERS ARE HEALTtY,-It is re

his researches, he states that the es-
sence Of cherry, laurel. lavender, mint,

OREGON is not large State, but it
holds clever assortment of political
parties. The Republicans, Democrats
and Independents have each held State
Conventions and nominated separate
tickets for Congress. The Democrats
were first in the field, and presented
son OF General Joe Lane, of Breckin-
ridge memory, as their candidate.
The Republicans present Henry Warn
er, and the Independents propose q.
III. Whitney, designated by the tele-
graph operator as "saw-mill man.
AS Oregon has but one Congressman,
it's pretty clear that all can't be elected,
and it is not improbable that Lane the
younger will come to Washington to
take mp the role of craftsmanship laid
down by his father some fifteen years

So far only twenty-seven deaths are
repoI ted as the result of the Whining
ton county, Illinois, Vendetta, but
there are several back townships yet
to hear from and full returns may
show some fifty slain, for the work of
murder is not yet over. Had such
bloody work occurred in louisiana
Sheridan would have been sent down
there to help the Government preserve
the peace, and we should have heard
a great hue and cry about the Ku-Klux
and all that. But Illinois being loyal
