DemOcratfc Conventfon.

The Democracy of Allen county met
at Humboldt in mass convention last
Monday to place in nomination a
county ticket. A great amount of en-
thusiasm was INDUCED in and the
boys acted as though they really hop
ed to elect somebody. The convention
met at Longs Hall which was dense
ly packed-mostly Republicans as it
was afterwards developed by the vote.
The convention was called to order
by Nelson F. Acers, and the call read,
after which Judge GOOdin made well
come speech in behalf of the Democra-
cy of Humboldt.
A committee of eight ON resolutions
was appointed. Also committee on
order of business. John r. Goodin
heading the former and Moses Neal
the latter. After the committees had
reported the convention proceeded to
nominate a county ticket. Col. Coffin
Of Humboldt, placed in nomination for
Clerk of the Court, Wiley Donaho of
Elsmore. He was nominated by ac-
clamation. John r. GOOdin of Hum
bOldt, placed n. S. Rannalls of Hum
boldt, in nomination for Probate
Judge. He was nominated by accla-
nation. Col. Coffin of Humboldt,
placed in nomination n. F. Acers for
County Attorney Capt. Jones placed
in nomination Col. q. P. Smith. The
ballot resulted as follows: Acers, 50;
Smith, "a; before the vote was an
nounced Col. Smith moved to make
MFR. Acers the nominee by acclama-
tion-which was done. n. F. Acers
placed Thomas Bartlett in nomination
for County Superintendent, and he was
nominated by reclamation.
With the exception of the last nam
ed candidate, they were all vouched
for as being "unflinching Democrats"
whatever that may be. Mr.. Bartlett is
a supporter of the Republican Ma
tional and State ticket we are inform
ed, and hence we heard no such recon-
mendation for him as was given the
rest. The machinery was well greas-
ed and the proceedings slipped along
nicely. The county committee met
in the forenoon and fixed the slate
with the exception of'county attorney.

GENERAL TokBERT's REMAINS ExHUMED
AND FORWARDED To HIS L ATE HOME
PERSONAL.

Mr.. s. j. Temple, who left this city
twenty years ago and engaged IN the
lumber business in Florida, Is now on a
short visit to his Wilmington friends.
Mr.. Temple has been quite successful in
Florida. He has acquired large Sec
ton of land, which he informs US grows
oranges and bananas Of fine quality.
Several of the latter which he laid on
our table are much larger than those
which are brought here from the West
Indies. He says that In his section
orange trees are found nine feet In cir
cumference, and fifty years old. Bana-
mas grow up rapidly, and bear in eigh-
teen months after planting. The stalk
then decays, but shoots sprout up from
its roots. Mr.. Temple has several groves
of orange and banana trees. Florida is
improving rapidly, and many persons
from the North are buying UP land for
speculation. Several new railroads are
IN progress, one of which runs near Mr..
Temples place, which, when completed,
will enable truckers to put fresh vegeta-
bles in the New York market as early as
March and continue the supply as long
as the season lasts.

SECOND EDITION
LETTER FROM SAMUEL TOWN
SEND.
For the Gazette.

II vi bho Od1tItes
Mr.. EDIToR:-The Republicans at
their last State Convention say in their
resolutions that States Rights was set
tied at Appomattox. Who by? Do
they mean tue battle was fought by
three-fourths Democratic army of SOL
diers 10 break down a representative
government and to erect on it's ruins
central despotism. No! and even the
patriotic independent portion of the
Republicans at the Chicago Conven-
ton, this summer refused to try to
commend central despotism by the
nomination of Grant, and I give the
Republicans credit for nipping Grant
and his ambitious followers in the bud.
The pratings at Dover come with i'll
grace from those defeated Grant men.
The fact is the Republican party has
the brassiest cheek of any party l
ever saw to assume to themselves the
credit of putting down a rebellion that
they fomented when all intelligent
men know it was a majority of Demo-
cratic soldiers and Democratic officers
who put down the rebellion and saved
the Union; and for the active part
Hanco ock took in the matter the Union
loving voters North and South are 60
ing to elect him President. The South
| knows the Northern Union loving
Democrats fought only to save the
Union, and not for negro equality and
negro franchise. And further, whilst
the Republican Convention at Dover
in one resolution condemned State
Rights, in another resolution they pro-
I ose the nomination and election of
members of the Legislature and Levy
Court in single districts or hundreds,
which means to a certain extent to
make the hundred independent of the
county and the county independent of
the State, and the State independent
of the Nation. Thus IN one resolu-
tion condemning State Rights and in
another favoring the principle of State
Rights by the nomination and election
OF members of the Legislature in sim
gle districts. Now, Messrs. Republi-
cans enter my protest against your
stealing or trying to steal from the
Democracy of this hundred the doc
trine of nomination and election in
single districts and / shall expect the
white Republicans of this hundred to
support the Democrats of said hundred
in trying to establish the single dis
trict system. The Republican party
is fraud got into power under false
pretences and they assert that the old
constitution was changed by an addi-
tion of the 14th and 18th amend
ments.
These two amendments were never
recommended by two-thirds of the
States, and said amendments were
never adopted by three-fourths of the
States. They are nothing but con
gressional enactments, and what ont
Congress can do another Congress car
undo. Therefore, whatever the Dem
ocratic masses demand by resolutions
at the time of electing Senators and
Representatives to Congress that they
shall repeal said acts, it should be
done and l presume no Democratic
President, let his own opinions be
what they might, would set himself III
against a majority of the Senate anC
House of his own party-the part!
that elected him.

Vhat Became of the Guards?

Saturday evening while the Young
Mems Republican club were on the march
to the Blue Ball, the Hastings Guards
occupied a position back Of the two
platoons of the former club. When the
procession reached Eleventh street some
wandering urchin or evil-d!sposed person
threw stone into the ranks. AT once
all the hot, northern blood was sent
bouncing through the veins of the patrl-
otic, and loyal members of the Guards,
and with the fierce captains command to
charge the whole co mpany went
helter-ske tier down Eleventh street
hill after the fellow who threw the
stone. 1t is not known whether they
caught the criminal or not, but as they
never returned to the ranks and the
Young Mems club marched to the Blue
Ball alone, the only reasonable supposi-
tIon is that they are "charging" yet.

deavored by letter to get the con-
