Caldwell and his friends gave the mechanics and laborers of this State the first lien law thet EVER HAD. ,juajre Merrimon aud ms friends told the people of this State in 1868 that every vote for our present Constitution w is a vote for negro supremacy. Was their assertion true ? Who told the people of Wake last summer that it.the Convention was voted down they would have to pay fifty dol Hra tax ou every thousand dollars1 worth of property. Answer J u Jge Merrimon. It is urged iy the Democratic organs that the , law ia to be enforced in State and municipal elections. This is done to make it more obnoxiou?, if that be possible, to their party. But unfortu nately, this is an error. The law applies only to Presidential and : Congressional elections, though we heartily wish it j COULD RE JIADE TO APPLY TO ALL OTH ERS iV. F. Tribune. When the rebellious Traitors are over whelmed in the Field,, and scattered like leaves before an angry wind, it must not be to return to Peaceful and ' ' . . . v Contented Homes.

That it will so speak to make them penitent, dv that trusting in the dispensations of Heaven whose justice is dispensed with mercy, when they shall be brought before the bar of their great tribunal, so to speak, that incomprehensible tribunal, there will be found in the fact of their penitence, or in their previous lives, some grounds upon wJUch Qod may say PARDON." Speech of Hon. Revcrdy Johnson, in Ku Klux trials, December lQth. Wm. A. Guthrie, Esq. We have been informed by the Chair man ot the District Executive Commit- ems a catraiaaTe-ror-TneTJtaio oer c, nay withdrawn bis name from the electoral ticket. A new appointment will be made in due time. ; Rapidly Approaching. .There are but a few short days more for labor. Are we lull? prepared ? Re- member that our voters must be regis tered before the day of election, and that on the day of election, they must all vote. Do not be deceived by the biagadocio of our opponents. Remem ber that this has always been their method of conducting a campaign, and be assured they do not feel as jubilant as they pretend. If our entire vote is polled we will certainly carry the day. Will we do it ? ' Let it be understood that a vote for Democracy is a vote io favor of cbang ing the Constitution. A change in the Constitution endangers the Homestead and Lien Laws. Do you want them abolished ? Let it be understood that this is the moat important election which has come before th'o people eince the war. If the Democracy succeed, the entire good . results ; of the past five years will be swept away. Remember these important truths and do not be deceived by the slanders and personal abuse of bur candidates. Stand by your nominations and all will be well. Who Pays the Taxes ? Col. Waddell made among other remarks, one statement with which we heartily concur. He argued for ten minutes to show, that the consumer paid the tax. Nowwe have always been of that opinion, and have written much on that subject. The Democrats claim that they pay all the taxi This has been the burden of their song for years. The poverty of our friends has been con stantly flaunted in our faces by the op position press during all the political campaigns passed, and we have always felt it to be unjust. CoL Waddill, very properly says, that il the lawyer is taxed, he charges $12 instead of $10 for making a deed; it the merchant is taxed heavily, he charges a higher price for his goods ; and if the doctor is "taxed, he charges more for his attend ance, and consequently the. consumer pays these taxes. We think so too, and as the Colonel is the standard bearer of "all the wealth and intelligence", of the State, we hope to hear no more boasts of the Democracy: paying all the tax. for it is not ho fact. The colored men par their full proportion of the taxes of the State, ; and their voice must be beard in the management of our gov ernment. We are not in favor of a " white man's party." Extract from Hon. Columbus Dela no's speech atfRaleigb, MCfuly ;.47 f. The Eipubiican Party. 1 1 1 The Republican partyopitberlt, was a constitutional organizationpriifg ing quicklyinto existence after the re peal of the Missouri Compromise. Its single purpose was to prevent the spread of slavery inta?$her iTemtoriesAandrit laid no hand ontiavery-rn the btatesi- It is not my intentionrep tory of the rise and fall, of slavery, cr to call in review the enormities of that system. These have, happily passed away. The most compact and condens ed system of wrong which governments ever tolerated, or the depravity; of. man ever invented, is claimed to have had its origin in war and, irue to its natu ral instincts for a little longer life and a little more power, it drew the sword, made war on the American Republic, and perished by the sword. Tfl U)at day four millions ofireemen were added to tiLO--- '-ijtesy Depending ou the issl, Luwere many ; wejghty consitv m destroyed all civil gOT?rnL J:threbej. States. The tenfire t Jlaijkhaken and lost : povertfaJyerwp ieable and the 1 . 1 ' W , - . 1 ! ljm mm m m Sb ee- dom and unity for the State.. No com plaint can now be lodged at the bar )t Eternal Justice against the enormity of American slavery. This work has been accomplished by the Republican party. Following this are the acts of recon struction ot.; the .'Southern States. If these have seemed harsh to some, it waa imperative legislation, made so to rescue order and government "but of the chaos and confusion resulting from the war. To attain thest' enfranchisement and the right ot suffrage have been extended to the colored citizen. Thtt was not less an act ot justice than of public safety. The colored man had been declared for ever free,and if freedom meant anything. -it meant that he should stand iqual be- lore the law and. have a voice in legis tation. Recognizing this fundamental jcip!e Congress reebnstructo'd "the Southern States Accordingly, i The Democratic party, - not relishing ..this condition, aerain rebelled. Its lead ers in Coogresa and its newspaper prtBs denounced these act3 as unconstitution al, an onen war on the part, of the opposition being found impracticable. The ku klux remedy was next resorted to. That organization obtained ana governed in fourteen counties of your own State, and to a yet greater extent in five neighboring States. In the four teen counties it, committed eighteen homicides, and administered three hun dred and fifteen whippings on unoffend pSip the avenging laid, not too heavily, upon this last Democratic enormity. The reeords of your Federal courts bear witness to tbc barbarity and treason of the ku klul klans, and the convicted felons who .have gone up from North Carolina and the neighboring States to expiate their crimes in . the penitentiary are living monuments oV the cruelty and treason latent in the Democratic party. There are still Mother deeds which have been accomplished by the Re publican party to which I must invite your attention. It has given guar antees for the faithful payment of the public debt. It has provided pensions tor the crippled and dis abled soldiers who shed luster upon America by their ... heroism in defending-the Union. It has pro vided pensions for the orphans of those who sacrificed, their lives in the glorious cause, and for the widows who are compelled to pour : out bitter tears upon the graves of their husbands who laid down their lives lor their country. These sacred pledges of a nation's grat itude will nsver be withdrawn while the widow and iatherless live to enjoy therr. This glorious work of the lie publican party you are proud of. Is it time for vou now to desert this party ? Can any honest man justify himself in such desertion ? There is yet other work accomplished by this great party to which I must allude. It has provided against the payment of the debt contracted by the rebel States lp their effort to "defitroy the Union. It has resolved not to pay the former masters for emancipated slaves. It felt that those who coerced emanci pation by attempting io destroy the Union lost all right in equity to any compensation by such emancipation, and it has determined to stand upon these great ideas and great principles under all circumstances and in every emergency. This work will live in his toryrItwill be worshiped bytbose who come atter us ; and if any hand is now or shall hereafter be raised to undo this work, to nullifj.it, or impair its obligation and validity, the execrations of all good men will be meted out to him who raises such hand, now, and in all time to come. All this , great and . noble work; has been accomplished under the constant and persistent opposition of ' the Dema cratic party; but in the midst of this warfare the Republican partv has made its way onward in Its righteous work. In patience and sorrow it has sought to enforce the laws, bring the guilty to punishment, do justice to the oppressed, and deal rightly with-all.' The nomination of Horace f Greeley for the Fresidency by the i Democratic party has been made, says the; New Haven Journal, "not because one Demo--crat in ten thousand believes IdnV a tit and proper man for the responsible uuues oi me station, not because the b pany nas changed its -principles and purposes, but as a last desperate effort to steal into power and place on false pretenses, and under false colors.'

Josie Mansfield has been brought into Court as a witness in the Bernard 1 woman herself. , The precautious. which have been taken to preserve secrecy in the Geneva Tribunal have been remarkably success ful. No news ot any definite import ance has reached us, and only rumors give us information. The murder of Warneyor Walker, as his name appears to be, in Switzer land, is denied by the European tele: grama. He .is said to have met his death iu an accidental manner. Fifteen persons are under arrest, however, on suspicion of being implicated in the affair. England appears ready to take up the Jesuitical persecution already inau gurated by Germany. It appears that there has been a law in existence in that country for nearly fifty years for the suppression of this order; but no steps have been taken to enforce the same. Sir Robert Peel, member from Lam worth, has reiuvinated the question. 'the shooting of Aldeimao McMil lan, byMarra, an ex-convict, has excited the city of Philadelphia to an alarming degree. Both parties belonged to im portant fire organizations. Both were roughs, and politics in a v be accredited as the cause. Mexican affairs appear to be get ting worse aud woise. There has been discoviie iu the City of Mtiico au organized baud of kidnappers Whose cruelties have surpassed anytuit g here tolore known. Three of the leaders have been captured and immediate y hung. Though this does uot put a check on their devastations, it is hoped that a continued course of vigilance will, in the end, exterminate them. The college regatta was unavoid ably postponed on the 23d inst., owing to the unfavorabla weather. Fifteen thousand spectators had gathered on the banks of the river near' Spiingtiefd to witness, the grand spectacle. The race took place however on the 21th, and contrary to all expectations, Am 1 .University race in 16 minutes ancluiJa 4-5secoha87'-Trgi: Ma L coming in 2 seconds behind. The re sult will be a sad lesson to Harvar4, who for the past, seven years has been without a rival in the Colleges, and will we trust renew the old feeling of emu lation in the breasts of her sun burned sons. Long continued success has made them careless. ' TANBARK. Col. Sam. Bond, tersely defines the issues of the canvass in the Chattanooga Herald, as follows: "Greeleyism is re trogressive, malicious, Union and freedom-bating, secession-loving Democra cy. Thie it is, pure and unadulterated, and nothing less monstrous. Whoever supports Greeleyism supports that Dem ocracy. What Republican will dare this grave crime against the couutry he has hitherto labored to save ? What patriotic Democrat and there are many suchr-who does not believe in this sort of falsely-called Democracy will subject himself to the suspicion and distrust of his fellow:citizens by taking part in so papable a fraud V Of. the address of 15,000 Germans handed In at the Baltimore Convention, the New York Staats Zeitung says : The document was drawn up by Mag nus Gross', ex-Alderman 'Schlichtlingj and some of their friends. In collecting and adding up these 15,000 signatures, probably the same aritbmeti6al tricks were resorted aiujertifying to the accounts fpthenewjwu York city,5 the addition of a cipher be ing considered a very innocent thing. This supposition is the more probable, as the gentlemen have had many oppor-. tunities of being initiated into the mys teries of .these arithmetical tricks." An Auburn Democrat contributes the following as expressive of his condition : A life-long Democrat, upon being ak ed if he could 'go for Greeley, replied that the situation reminded him of an incident that occurred in the mines. A party of miners took ud a claim and p.T..' ted orje of their, party cook, who was to serve m mat capacity until some one found fault with his cooking. In that event the fault finder was to take his place and do the cooking himself. George B was the first to fill the position,and everything went on smooth ly, for a weekforwp, when George be came tired and resolved to have some one find fault if possible. So one morn ing he mixed the dough for breakfast, putting in equal parts of flour and salt; All eat down to breakfast, and Bill J-- was the first to break a biscuit; He tasted it, smelled it, and tasted it again, and said : ; nellIIUl be d-d if this .ain't the sa. test f biscuit I ever :got hold ot but,7 said be, suddenly remembering the contract, it is 'good ?
