Abiding to the Herculean efforts which Ben
Hill has been making to obtain pardons for
Illicit whisky distillers from Georgia, who are
now serving their sentences at Albany, the
Augusta ConStaWtioadlist says:
Ever since Bon went to Washington he has
been as busy as bee. in procuring pardons for
men in Jail for Illicit distiling in upper Geor
tans re. echo % the glad tidings In many Instances
the main support Of families are the prisoners,
and their release will carry joy 10 few hearts,
If il docs not satisfy the stiff ends of Justice
This action is a strong card for Ben. His short
cOmings in Congress will in a great measure be
overlooked by this succesto the Illicit distiIerS
tfAccording to Commissioner Pratt's state
ment, Ben's efforts have not been altogether
crowned with success in the matter Of obtain
ing pardons for the parties above referred to.
The next Union Republican State Conven-
tion Of North Carolina has been called by the
Executive Committee to meet in Raleigh on
Wednesday, July 12, 1876. In issuing the call
the committee extend broad and patriotic
invitation, couched in the following catholic
terms: GIVE cordially invite all Republican
electors and other voters, without regard to
past party affiliations or differences, who favor
the humane provisions of our homestead and
other exemption laws, who favor the estab.
lishment Of system of free schools that will
meet the wants of the masses of our people,
and also all those who are opposed to the
revolutionary schemes of the late fraudulent
convention, which proposed amendments to
our State constitution, to cooperate With US
in our efforts to put good men in Office, and
retain for North Carolina an honest and eff
cient State administration. Let US all in this
Centennial year of the anniversary of the
birth of this great Republic renew our pledges
Of devotion and fealty to the Union."
