Because it was the I only way in which the bill could be got throtizh, and the lawyers well knew J that the restrictions could be disreganl j ed by the Convention. When the present Constitution was adopted the real estate of North Caro lina was valued at O.OW.'iKO, now it is ,! I,. an increase of $1,0 -'1,1)38.

The deetrnclives are very much alarmed at the probability ' that many of the (bounties in this section of the Slato that they had calculated OH M sure for Convention candidate8,goiiig for men who are opposed to changing our present Constitution, and are In exta cies of rage and disappointment, and are calling in all the help, they can pdssibly command. They hare impor ted from the Western part of the State a dirty vulgar fellow named ( Leach who by his baseness and disgusting record is held in the utmost contempt among the people to whom lie ifl best known, and he is the man whom they have brought here to tell decent men how they should vete. This man Leach is a miserable, dirty, vulgar blackguard, and his language and conversation is that of a bawdy house pimp rather than that of a gen tle ui an. No decent man can listen to his. tirade of billingsgate and abuse without feeling the utmost con tempt for the miserable fellow. mm la 1871 tho people of North Carolina voicd agaiust a Convention by over uinc thousand majority. They did not choose to trust their rights and liber ties to the mercy of Democratic trick sters and hungry lawyers. The last Legislature, aware of the indignation expressed against the measure in 1871, did not dare to leave the question agaic to the people, but forccd,a Comven rion upon them. Let all Who -voted agaiust Convention in 1871 remember that by voting forRepublican delegates the revolutionary attempt will be again defeated. Republicans are pledged to an immcdateadjournmenr, thus saving hundreds of thousands, and probably millions of dollars to the tax payers of the State. If Democrats shall control then the ieople will have continued s'.rife, and all the rights accorded to them byi.thc Republican party will be taken away. The fight is narrowing down. The oligarchs aro making a desperate attack upon popular rights, and it behooves every true man to come to the rescue. TUB CHIVALRY. At Clarktou depot. Drown Marsh Township, Bladen county on July 31 there was a political meeting held which I ffjMaddresscd by J. W. Russ, Demo L. Mabsou, Esq., of New Hanover, u requcst,was present to represent A. Mc Donald, Esq., Republican candidate, that gentleman being detained by sick ness. Reforc the spcakiug began the ques tion was asked by the Republican Ex ccutivc Committee if a division of time would be allowed Mr. Moibuen. John D. Currie answered that lie, Mab son, could speuk anywhere he pleased out of his sight. Mr. Russ was applied to, and his answer was a most emphatic no. 'The speaking took place from the piazza of Claik & Currie's store, and Mr. Mabsou was informed that heceuJd not seak fioni that place. He then applied for permission to address his hearers from the platform of the ware house of the Carolina Central Railw, but John II. Clark, agent of the com pany and in charge of the warehouse, said that Mr. MabaoD, could not use the railroad platform for the purpose. Fail ing, in these attempts, Mr. Mabson mounted a slump by the side of the railroad track and made one of the tiut telling speeches of the campaign. The miserable destructives were afraid to allow au argunic ment to be made against the convention movement and d.id all in their power to prevent a free discussion, but the Republicans and anti-convention Democrats had made up their minds to hear the other side, and hear it they did.

New Berne Tima. Got.' Manly's Opinion. Lei the old line1 Whigs 6f North Carolina read the following extract from Governor Manly's message to the LcgiaUture in 185), before they decide to vote for delegate to the coming Convention who favor radical reforms in the present Constitution : " Is the power, U call a Convention by the General Assembly confined to the single office of calling it, or, can the sarae Legislature limit and confine the powers of th Convention in the acts calling it? As there are conflic ting qpinions upon this question out of the Assembly, it is probable they will exist in It. , It cannot be doubted that a Conven tion called by the General Assemby (two-third concurring) would be cloth ed with unlimited diteretion over the Convention. The General Assembly has power to call a Convention into be ing, but no yt of themselcr ff? pre tcribe a limit to its atdhority. , I hazard little in saying that the people of North Carolina have not hitherto exhibited a strong desire for such an experiment as this'upontheir government ; and, there fore t behooves their, Representatives to look well to the mode they adopt for introdicing rcfoTms! into the Con stitution." The following delegates in the Seces sion Convention of 1861 are candidates for the Convention of IS75: Ex.-Gov. W. A. Graham, Ex Gov. D. S. Keid, Hon. W.T. Dortcb, Hon. John Manning, Col. Wm. Johnston, and Col. John XT. Cuininghaflh The following delegates to the Con vention of lS'J-3 are candidate for the Convention of 187f: Hon. R. P. Buxton, ,of Cumberland ; James Ituraley, of Carteret ; Dr. Wm. Barrow of Northampton , Wm. T. Fair cloth, of Wayne; T. J. Jarvis, of Pitt; J. Q. A. Bryan, of Wilkes ; R. W.King, of Lenoir. The following members of the Con vention of I,SG8 are candidates lor the ConvenTrfon jf 1875 : Plato Durham, of Cumberland ; A. W. Tonrsree. of Guilford : J. Q. A. rtrn of Wilkes: R. W..

"When this body (the Conven tion) ifescmblcs, they do not propose to alter or wned this or that chapter and section of Battle's Revisal, set aside, in whole or in part, any obnoxious law now on our statute books, but they go there FREE, with full and ample pow er save a few restrictions and the Salisbury Watehman, a Democratic journal, laughs to scorn tho id of re stricting tne uonventian-!. ik SAP TIIE VERY FOUNDATION OF OUR WHOLE STATE SYSTEM; in fact, to take out all the old machine ry, including the !best circuit judiciary the State ever had, and snbstitute new, something yet to try.

In No Danjrcr ? The Democratic papers arc assuring the 'dear people' that in the event of a Democratic majority iu the convention the homestead is in no danger and uses this argument: 'Nine-tenths of the laud-holders in the State are Democrat. The Demo cratic party stands' pledged to maintain the homestead; The charge then is false that tho convention would if it could, interfere with it. Very good; nine-tenths of the land holders arc Democrat.' What kind of Democrats ? Why ;x?r Democrats who aro to-day, with their honiesteads safe, supporting a whole host of lawyers. Yes, poor Democrats, who are not lead ers iu the party, who do not control it, and for whom the leaders have only caro or thought but as instruments to elevate them to power, and would be as readily sacrificed to the wealthy Democratic Moloch Jas poor Republi cans. The Democratic party, through its leaders, such as Senator Merrimon and others, 'stand pledged' to have such a supreme court organized fs would virtually destroy the cllieacy of the homestead clause. lr men, with out regard to politics, you can - be saf only in Voting against delegates that are in favor of a convention,!!! this way ouly securing your homestead.
