Major EggsERa~d isa the FkOEsax1r Inns
Our candidate for Secretary Of State
is doing good work il the mountain
COUNTIES. Everywhere he has had good
and sometimes large crowds. He has
been into the radical strons;holds and
care out adyantageously at every
point. His western canvass, when
completed, viii have included the
prin cipai counties west of the Ridge,
where We are Informed he has done
the most effective work Of the cam
paign. In Mitchell county Major
Enge!hard spoke st three points, Ba-
kersvilie, tirsaay creek and Big Rock
creek at Cane river, in Yancey, aud
Kelsey's store, Ivy, in Madison. at ell
of which places he had large crowds
and much good was done. At Grassy
crock, in Mitchell, three brothers,
heretofore republicans, declared for
the democratic ticket, and one old gem
tleman, a prominent republican,, also
gave in his Adhesion, declaring to TIE
crowd that he had never had the truth
told him before,
Big Rock creek, III Mitchell, gave
Caldwell 50 and Merrimon votes.
No democrat had made speech there
since the war, and &c was said none
could be made there. But Major
Engelhard, with Major A. NJ. Erwin,
of Med DWELL, who has accompanied
him and rendered orr candidate for
Secretary Of Stale Iuvaiuahlo service,
concluded they would try 1t anyhow,
and they spoke there to nearly every
voter III the township, all Of whom,
except the very Old and very Yonng.
were either Confederate deserters OF
+, deral soldiers. and many Of them
Kirk men. The very best attention
was paid and we gained at lea I 25
votes il that township.
Our prospects are very line through
out all the mountain counties. Our
gains in Iredoii, Catawba, Caldwell,
Burke, Mcdowell, Dnncombc, hi cheii,
Yancey and Madison vii average from
$50 to 800 to the county.
Major Engalha. d is III Jackson,
and Swain this week. Next week he
viii be in Grsnan. Cherokee and
Macon again. In many IF the counties
he has canvassed he has spoken three
times, and seldom less lbau twice.
Our next secretary of state has made
a thorough and telling CANVASS Of she
western counties, and la not a siug!e
one has he failed to make votes for the
state ticket. We shall gain largely on
the MerrJmon vote i'll every county
west Of Salisbury.

The South has alleged that the NORTH

until they had sold all their slaves and

the STATE, Ehi:h PERFECTLY vindicates
Governor Porter in the matter Of hav-
ing attempted TO use improper securities
q Teunefss for the purpose of borrow
ing money to meet her Indebtedness.
we say that Colonel Gsines's letter vim
dicates Governor Porter, because Mr.. A
3. C0lysr and Dorsey B. Thomas st-
tempted TO attach his name to a trans
action which occurred il 1874 under the
administration Of Governor John G

or moe bsfo-e Governor Porter was in
Guesed iuta cfiice. Governor Brown
aud C5loael BIrch are perfectly able TO
explain their connection with the busi-
ness in question, If it shall become
necessary, but Ar. Gainss's letter puts
Governor P.rter beyond any such re-
aJiFemauf.
