The question of this canipa'go is whether or not the vertfic oi tne nconle four years ago. oy which the IliMiiihlicAus' were turned out of power, shall now . be reversed A GKAXD MISSION. That verdict was arrived at on the grounds that the Republican party, with the accumulative force of 25 years ot power, and , witii a creat mission and work, whicn it had accomplished, ha i completed its mission, and grown useless and corrupt. Tliere wene two scnools ot thought from the . b ginaing of this countryr as to Statt.'s rights. Doth schools' were patriotic, able, and honest. One school maiutaiued thpt the union was necessary, and therefore indissoluble. The other cbool maintained that the union was voluntary, and dissoluble at will. These differences were d'scussed Cor sixty years in the Congress and on the platform, throughout the country. Of course such a diffe edce coolu not be settled by argu ment. Only the field of battle, could settle that controversy. Southern man as I am, southern soldier as I was, I think history will say the Republican party was raised up to fight for the indetrac- tibililv of the nutiOu; and the bi.i(oi ian will ptobd'Olv, aud .uayV. rightly, say, that God was with that party in its victory. Yes, and the future philosopher on history will calmly poiot out that God, blessed both sides; for whilst the Union was declared indestructible, the States were also made inde. structible forever. SAMSON AlD THE JAWBONE, The Republican' party donbtless had another mission; it was to free the negro, and jet that pasty did uot go into war to free the negro; toe freeiug ot the slaves became a necessity ot war. liie ; negroes however think the Republicans freed theui ami for that reason they thiLk they -ought to vote for . tnat parry an me time, xtie ugro has swapped the slavery of th" old master for the serfdom ofnolnicai bosses. The negro owes his . freedom to God, not to the mere instrument with which God worked OQt His emls; but the colored man glorifies the Republican, party as bis deliverer. When Samson 'slew the Philistiues with the jawbone of an ass, there was never much glorification of the ass's jawboue. - Laughter and applause. WABEIOKS 'NOT -STATESMEN. The Republican party came out of the war, trained in the ways of battle, and not fitted for the ways of peace 'and civil control. It car ried iuto the administration of the government, the ; habits of war. 44 Ilapiue aud spoils," was the cry of the victors, as they entered into the nations coffers. Scandals and corruption grew thick and fast, until notwithstanding the great hold the party had ou the sinews of government! through the eutire country, the people rose in their might, and cast the Republicans out into the highways. ! That party had so fattened by higli taxation, that under an honest Democratic administration, there is an enormous surplus in the treasury. Of course it ought not to be there! but it is better there than let out in jobbery, Still, the people ought never been taxed beyond the needs of the government. North. Cart - liua has iu that surplus about four million dollars enough to run this State government six or seven years. AGAINST THEr ELAIE BUT,. Well, there is an attempt , to return some of that money to North Carolina and to other "states, by means of the Bla.ir bi"'.. It is prob ably very well that some of that money should be spent in educa tion, but orth Carolina wants to w Utnn A A . uci own money on her own - 'oois, in her own way, by her the South. The Confederates who saw their flag go downj forever, and hope tor its glory flash out in a second, have long since accepted the results ot the war with positive good heart; and, the; Republican party claiming the grea4- and glor ious victory of the Grand Union Army, seems never to be able to forget nor to forgive toe conquered South, flow, in the face of these sectional prejudice's of the Repub lican party, can a man who loves Noitn Carolina, cast his vote for a party who is seeking to keep alive the seei ioual strife, and to force it right iu here in this State, and to disrupt society by exciting race prejudices ! LOVE IS rtlWEE. A rich man had a piece of land on which a poor mule was grazing. "I shall harness you," aid the man to the mule, "and make you plow this ground to grow melons on, of which I am very fond, while the stalks will supply you with food." To which the mule replied : "If I concent to toil on your plan you will have the melons and 1 will be Trorse on than 1 am now, in as much as I will have to eat dry stalk3 instead of fresh green grass. I'll not do it, sir.'" "How unreasonable j'ou are remonstrated the landowner : "Your father never had any food but thistles, and yet worked sixteen hours a, day without grumbline."' Alas! that is true," retorted the mule, ''but then, you know, my father was an ass." Chicago Express. Wbd ever rules this country must Ifave heart big euoueu to love the nation.

Well, the Democratic party that acquired the great Wesjtern territory by its valiant war w th Mexico, thought that the land l elongeoj to the peo ple, and that i had been corruptly taken from them by the Republi cans. Grover Cleveland, there fore, a Democratic l'riesident, has revoked the land grants wherever possible, and restored to the government about one-half these iuvfluable lands. Nor do the American people intend to restore the Republican party to power, in oraer that those lands may be returned to the corporations? VNNECESSABY TAXATION IS UN- Consistency a Jewel. Col.

To this1 outrageous position, that mighty Democrat, Grover Cleveland, in clarion notes that have been heajrd on the mountains and , echoed in the valleys, says: j Unnecessary taxation is unjust taxation. . ! The Republican parity says that the surplus ought to be used in pensions. No confederate solider will ever begrudge the nation's care of the 'disabled Union soldier. Allen G. Thurman aplause in the Senate laid down the Democratic and Republican doctrines as to pen sions, when) he said no government would fail to help any soldier who, fiotn disability received in war, is unable to sustain hfimself and family; but beyond that in the slight est degree has a Republican form of goverment no right to go- WASTING- THE SURPLUS. The Republican party wants to pension every sutler and waiter and wagon driver in the army, so as to keen DO a naid itrmv nf honrhmnn greater by far than thje standing army of military and militant Ger many, to vote for it. The Republican party wants to squander the sur plus to corrupt votes. J The Democratic par'ty',tsince the wa 4 has iiever been in. complete control of the govermentlts econ my and wise legislation, 'has been gained by holding up the Repub lican party to public scorn, so as to compel it to aid in the pnbiic meas ures that the Democrats have to posed; The Democratic , party has not yet had that control necessary to give it a complete opportunity to reduce the government to a hardpan basis of ecouomy , and perfect honesty The Connecticut Republican Protectionists are sending out envelopes to their working men, that is practical intimidation The wages of the machanics are enclosed in these cunningly de vised envelopes that tell of the great and marvelous benefits of Protection. That is a polite way these fellows have of forc ing working men to vote for the party of high tariff.

Upon enquiring it was distov- ered that Mr. Simmons was at that moment speaking aud that there would be a big barbecue when he finished, par ',aken of by all present. We found Mr. Sim mons on the stand preacmng pure Democracy to about 3,000 people. We were informed tnat he had been preceded-by Mr. Ma son, of Northampton, who made a most excellent speech. The ladies of t .e place were ouUin full force. They are strong Simmons men at Enfield and their presence was appre ciated, ilor over two- hours Mr. Simmons told of things that concerned the people pres entand they listened eagerly to his earnest reciated of their needs and of the Democratic way to redress their ferevencies. When he would nave stoped the cry "go on ! go on I" resounded from many throats and he "went on" until his hoarseness would permit him to say no more. I Those present were well pleased. Democrats were de lighted to witness the ability of their champion, and grew wildly enthusiastic a3 he told the certainty of re-election from the lact that all of his people know him to be a true representative of the whole people. Republicans liked him for his fairness and the kindly spirit that animates and controls him. As he spoke the people drew nearer the stand. 1 uere was no straggling off, no talking around the edge of the crowd, but all was attention. The negroes are for him largely. They believe he will be elected and they want to be on the winning side. Some are openly avowing their intention to vote for F. M. Simmons. To show with what power he held the crowd it need only be stated that about 300 yards from the stand there was a long table laden with barbecue, bread and potatoes 11 in plain sight of those present and it was three o'clock and no one had been to dinner. But even that sight was insufficient to tempt those people way. They were more hungry for the wholesome food of Democratic doctrine than for that which satisfieth the "innoF man" . Then Mr. Simmons concluded Mr. W. C. Thorn e announced, as soon as he could be heard through the repeated cheers for Simmons, that dinner was rea dy, and that when the white people had finished the colored people a large number of whom were present wduld be fed. The crowd marched as orderly to the table as a well drillefi company of soldiers. There was no unseemly rush, no scramble. It was the best behaved crowd .we ever saw. At night an event occurred that has not been equalled in the State this campaign. Mr. Simmons was in his room at the hotel when suddenly a band of music began playing in front of the building It was learned that the Enfield Colored Cor net Band, or their own accord and without the solicitation or knowledge of the white citi zens, was thus evidencing their appreciation of Mr. Simmons. Mr. Simmons was deeply touched . and thanked them very feelingly. We dare say this is the first instance of the kind in North Carolina and in Halifax county. When the "Shoo Fly" train came in, upon wnicn Air. Sim mons was to leave, the town was lighted up with a big bon fire. The town was literally ablaze. Much credit is due the citizens of Enfield and vicinity for the brilliant manner in which, they welcomed their distinguished guest and servant. The occasion was admirablv planned, ably managed and passed off successfully. There was not the slightest , hitch or jars Lexington, N. C.f Oct. 18, 'S3 Lieut.

It is rumored tnat the Repub lican managers are going to make a "dead set" at North Carolina. Everybody has heard of North Carolina's "special tax bonds," and most people in this part of tbe world, at lepst have heard of the firm of Morton (Levi P.,) Bliss it Co. Well, that firm holds millloms of dollars worth of those bonds. Now it seems that the Legisla ture of North Carolina, cannot under the constitution, provide for the payment of these bond, at the polls vote for such pay ment. Whatever may be Mr. Levi P. Morton's aims the pur pose in life and whatever the goal to which he is struggling, it seems to be a well settled fact that, from "way back" he has been "on the make." If North Carolina could be in duced to go Republican, for the sake of savir r her boundries from the pauper labor of Eu rope, doncher-know, Levi 1' and Benjamin might distribute patronage s o . judiciously through the State that the peo pie might vote to pay these bonds.
