For the MONITOR.
NOT ENTITLED TO RESPECT.

We give the following extract from a.
communication received some time since,
in regard to the course of Bradley
Barlow:
"Can it be that Mr.. Barlow will per-
NIT his name to be used in opposition to
Gen. Grout, his pledge and the action of
his friends in the convention to the con-
trary? If so he will enter upon a course
that no honorable man will hesitate to
stigmatize as dishonorable and shame
full. Had Mr.. Barlow's friends at the
Hydepark convention, made some objec-
ton to the character or fitness of Gen.
circuit, or had they claimed that his
nomination had been obtained by unfair
means, and had they. then and there
"bolted," they might have had some
little sympathy from those disinterested
in either of the candidates as men; but
when the very man who nominated Mr..
Barlow instantly stepped upon the stage,
endorsed Gen. Circuit as his friend, and
as a nominee only a little less worthy
than Mr.. Barlow, and then gracefully
moved to make his nomination unani-
nous, which motion was carried aoitsout
single dissenting voice. then it seems
to me that Mr.. Barlow and friends are
barred from making any opposition tc
Gen. Grout. But further, when Mr.
Barlow took pains to go into Gen
CIRCUITS room, and there in the presence
of large number of gentleman, prom
ised to make him no further trouble, he
made pledge that no man could break
without disgrace to himself and shame
to his honorable friends. Mr.. Barlow
course since that time shows that he il
capable of doing what few men. high o.
low, would wish to do, and it shows tina
man who will so wantonly and public
ly break his pledges, is not entitled t.
the least particle of respect"

ELECTION.

The biennial election occurs on
Tuesday, Sept. Sd, and though it may
seem needless advice, we urge every voter
TO attend the polls. Outside Of the i'm
portance of electing suitable board of
State officers, there is in this locality,
especially in Caledonia county, strife
in regard to county officers. In this
third district there is the vital question
of whether the district shall be repre-
scented by Barlow, or by man with a
clean record and pure political princi-
pies. In each town a citizen is to be
selected for town representative, and 1t
is extremely important that a good Sc
lection be made. If there is citizen
in town whose ability, experience and
general fitness will make him better
representative than others, he should be
selected by all means. We must demand
wise, swift, economical legislation this
year. To bring out full vote requires
the individual effort of every lover Of
his State and county. Let every person
do something toward swelling the vote
to its highest proportions.

The next lob undertaken was the an

The next job undertaken was the an
Inhalation of the national banks. If
the statements of the redoutable Dickey
are to be believed. these institutions are
just awful. According to his statements
they are making money out of their
poor patrons at fearful rate. From
ten to fifteen per cent. interest is gained
on their capital stock, and government
is being leeched by them shamefully.
The speaker did not tell just how it was
done, nor did he say why he went out
of a bank at st. Johnsbury, as one Of
its directors, and sold his stock at par
probably his conscience would not allow
him to make money at such rates and by
such means. Mr.. Dickey would have
national bank currency give place to
greenbacks, and would institute some
banking system, though he did not stop
to tell what, that would be a great deal
better than the present. He recommend
ed the destruction of large amount of
bonds, but did not tell how it could be
done without higher taxation, repudia-
ton, or bankruptcy. Mr.. Dickey and
his hearers seemed to be very highly
clicked because there are dissentions
among the Republicans. He is pleased
to hear the factions accuse each other of
dishonesty, and is very ready to believe
that they tell the truth in this matter,
though he thinks them consummate liars
in everything else. Finally by a pero-
ration that scared into the celestial re-
gions, he encouraged his hearers to re-
main firm in their principles. vote the
straight ticket and return from the de-
feat at the polls undismayed, but de-
termined to fight till truth and right,
(of their kind) should triumph.
In common with our Democratic
friends we enjoyed the speech very much
and were glad to see their broad mouths
distended in.laughter, and their sombrt
countenances lighted up by momenta
ry ray of hope.

The bolt from Gen. Grout, so far as
we can discover: is groundless and more
over the Barlow side had most effectually
locked themselves out of the bolt by
moving in the convention to make the
nomination of Gen. Circuit unanimous.
They have once handsomely accepted the
situation. And what is their alleged
ground forthis move? Prominent among
the reasois is the fact that since the
convention the Free Press has announced
that the result of the canvass was an
endorsement of pure methods in politics
and, by Inference, that the Barlow meth
cd was v,ry impure and rascally. What
of it? Does the Free Press own the
party? If not, is it worth while to de-
stroy th. party to punish the Free Press !?
The managers of that paper will no doubt
be SURPRISED to learn that the republicans
of Fraklin county hate the Free Press
more than they love the republican par
ty. Al democrat we arc in hearty
sympathy with that position, but looking
upon i from republican standpoint we
pronounce it folly in a stupendous degree,
and saicldal most direct and emphatic.

THE SOLID SoUTH.-The Republican
Congressional committee at Washington
are in receipt of letters from the South
ern States which convey some interesting
information. There is great rivalry
to obtain nomination in various districts.
AS result, there will be great many
Independent candidates. 1t is this in
formation which causes the strong hope
among the Republican managers of
making break in the solid South. 1t
is expected that if any of these inde-
pendent candidates are elected. some of
them will act with the Republicans.
The States of which the Republicans
have the greatest hopes are North Caro-
lima. South Carolina, Tennessee and
Mississippi. In all of these States there
is formidable Republican vote, they
say, and in two or three or four districts

in each of them it is claimed that a
slight Democratic dissaffection will be
sufficient to secure the success of all op-
position candidates. It is understood
that whatever influence may be possess
ed by Postmaster-General Key will be
exerted in behalf of Republican or inde-
pendent candidates for Congress IN
Tennessee. In Tennessee the National
and Greenback party has developed such
strength that the Republican politicians
who write to Washington claim it will
be the balance of power, and through
its vote they expect to get two or three
Republicans elected to Congress.

Court of Wayne county last week, Noah Cher
ry, Robert Thompson and Harriss Atkison,
all colored, were convicted of the murder of
James Worley and his wife, white persons,
who were brutally murdered in their house
on an island in Neuse river, last February.
The evidence against the prisoners was con-
elusive, and they we're found guilty and sen.
fenced to be hanged on the 18th of next
month.
- The trial of Womble, in the Superior
Court of Auson county, last week, on the
charge of murder, by being accessory before
the fact in the committing of suicide by a
young woman of that county, attracted con-
siderable public attention. According to the
evidence adduced at the trial, at the request
of the deceased, Womble bought quantity
ofstrychnine for her, who said she wanted it
to kill an unborn child. Womble gave the
poison into the hands of the woman, but did
not administer it. The woman took it and
died. Womble did not deny the part he took
in the matter, but pleaded ignorance. The
jury acquitted him of the charge of murder
or being accessory to it. Both parties proved
good character up to, or within few months
of the occurrence.

daughter of our former towDsman, Mr.. John
J. Evans, who now lives few miles in the

of kerosene lamp. She was in the act Of
extinguishing the light, for which purpose she
turned the wick down, but being too small to
gil the socket of the burner, it fell through,
communicating the fame to the oil in the
lamp. An explosion ensued, covering the
face of the unfortunate young lady with the
burning OIL Fortunately, she had the pres.
ence of mind to envelope her face and head
with her brothers coat, which happened to be
near, and thus escaped what might have been
