The Ohio State Journal SAYS

The ONO State journal says:
In 1880. Dan Stone, of Cincinnati. was
a candidate for the State Legislature.
Walking up Main street on the morn
ing of the election, he overlook an &C
quaintance going to the polls, who in
thnded to vote the opposite ticket.
4" We are old FRIEND" said he, "and I
know you will show q friend that mark
of kindness. Party spirit was then
comparatively quiet. The voter re-
piled, "Well, Dan, you are a very
pretty clever fellow I don't care if I
do" The vote elected Stone, and
gave a majority of one in the Legisla-
ture. which made Thomas Ewing
United States Senator. Mr.. Ewine's
vote On the question of confirming
Martin Van Buren, as Minister Pleni-
potentiary to Great Britain, enabled
the Vice-President to give the casting
vote against it. and caused Mr.. Van

then President, and determined the
general political policy of the country
for four years.

Referring to Henry M. Stanley 3

the Anglo>American explorer of thu
London Telegraph and the New York

months after I had sailed upon it's
waters. His circumnayigation OF the
lake is creditable to his energy and
perseverance, but his exaggerations
and pretensions, whilst they provoked
contempt from the public, have been
aptly termed, even by a friendly press,
vulgar and in bad taste. In his ardor
for reputation, he speaks of great
army of 100000 men, and of a popu~
lation of millions in Ugunda, that
have no existence, save in his letters

By the treschery of Republican

continued an outlaw. Fortunately
the negro has the ballot. He owes it
to himself to use that ballot in punish

treason to professed principles leaves
him a victim to negro hate. Every

Club-Npeech Of Hon. James G.
Scott.
PALo ALTO. Onslow county, N. CT
October 7, 1876.
Mr.. EDITOR To-day the White
Oak Tilden and Vance Club met at
Hancock's store. Our President, Ed
ward M. Farnell, Esq. called the
meeting to order, and stated that the
club was ready for the transaction of
business. On motion it was ordered
that the report of the working commit
tee be heard first. The committee re-
sponded that they had no report, but
would at the next meeting present a
full report of their work. William A.
Hatsen, r. n. Summersill and Joseph
Morton were. upon motion, added to
the committee. No other business
was transacted. The meeting was a
grand success, as it generally is. 1t
Was grand rally, and the unity and
enthusiasm were such as to produce
expressions of joy and enthusiasm. It
is truly gratifying to note the uprising
of the people and the patriotic zeal
moving them. This club are the au-
thors of this happy omen of Democra-
tic success, and more than this will be
accomplished by these gentlemen of
energy and work before the day of
election. Hon. James G. Scott, who
had previously been invited to address
the club, appeared and made the best
and most eloquent speech we ever
heard hi % deliver. It was fine efott,
and will be long remembered by the
citizens of White Oak. He said that
he was delighted with the good people
of White Oak township, who had ever
in the past as well as the present been
true to the Democratic party, and in
every contest had provel themselves
as citizens of Intelligence, integrity
and patriotism. He spoke of the eau
didates of the great Democratic party
in glowing terms. The Constitutional
amendments were handled in such a
manners that every one present was
convinced that they ought to be
adopted. Mr.. Scott was a member Of
the Convention, and was we'll posted
in this respect. His speech was well
received and created much enthusiasm.
Our club is making every effort for
the success of the Democratic party.
White Oak township is all right. We
will gain the vote of some Republicans
and many of those who have not voted
since reconstruction. We earnestly
hope that the people throughout North
Carolina will, IL this crisis of our af-
fairs, work IS the people of Onslow
county work. and if they do, success
will be achieved by at least 15, 900 ma
jority. Go to work brave Carolinians
for victory. Star and Record please

Especial from St. Louis to Chi AGO Times !
Grant Wanted to be "a Confederate.
Joff. Chandler, heretofore one of the
leading Republicans of this State, has
been called upon by the Republicans
of the Third district t. accept the
nomination for Congress. He has
written a letter, which will be pub
i"hed tomorrow, in which he de-
chnes 10 be a candidate, and says: II

Iati platform and cannot support its
nominees" Chandler is from Michi-
gan, and is a relative of the notorious
Zach. He is graduate of Michigan
University, and served with the
Michigan troops during the late war.
rising from the ranks to be Colonel of
his regiment. He settled in Missouri
after the war, and up to this time has
been leading man in the Republican
party. He was on the ticket as Attor-
ney General which General John B.
Henderson headed four years ago.
The district in which he is asked to
run is that in which r. G. Frost is the
Democratic candidate. Frost is the
son of General d. M. Frost, who COM
manded the State troops here at the
outbreak of the war, and was captured
at Camp jackson by Blair and Lyon
at the head of the home guards, on
the ground that Frost intended to
take the troops into the Confederate
service. Frost now has the original
letter written to himself and Genera!
Sterling Price when the Missouri
troops were organizing before the
attack on Fort Sumter, from Ulysses
S. Grant, then at Galena, asking for
commission in the force going South,
and offering to espouse the Southern
cause. General Frost declines to
make public the letter, claiming that
it would not be honorable. If, how.
ever, an attack be made on young
Frost by reason of his fathers Con-
federate record, the letter will be pro-
duced. The existence of this letter is
an indisputable fact, and neither the
President nor his friends dare deny it.
Grants personal habits during his
residence with the Dents had been SO
bad that his offer was not accepted,
and about five months afterward he
Went TO Springfield and offered mis-
services to Yates for the Federal army.

Meeting and Flag Raising.

At meeting and flag raising at
Turkey Greek School House, Stump
Sound, Onslow county, the unfurling
of a Tilden and Vance and Shackel-
ford banner on pole eighty feet high
with red and yellow letters was q beau
tiful sight to behold, after which Mr..
Hill E. King delivered brief address.
He touched upon the political issues
of the day. He thoroughly compli-
mented the Democratic party on such
a host of true and tried and honest,
staunch hearers, and said he should
support both the State and national
nominees, including Mr.. Shackelfo1d.
He thoroughly ragged the radical party
and threw some of the heaviest shot
at them that any good Democi at
could throw. Too much cannot be said
about the son of Stump Sound.
