F. AT. Sorrelt, J&q., Secretary of the Lib,
I eral Anti Prohibition Committee:
. Deab Sib :I haTe receiyed yours
of the 9 th insL, officially iaforoaing me
that at a convention of vh Liberal
party of North Carolina, .which jassem
bled in Bateigh on the 7th inst., I wu
unanimously nominated as a candidate
for Judge of the Fourth Judicial Dia-
Appreciating, as I d , the ' Liberaj
sentiments of patriotism expressed in
the platform of the Liberal party,
atd feeling, as I do, thai the'' action o
the convention was something 'more
than a me're compliment to me lodivid.
ually, I accept the nomination.; j
1 Throuzh you I desire tor express the
belief as wel( as th3 hope, ' that North
Carolina is entering upon a new era of
rest from- bitter political strife, to be
succeeded by greater activity in mate
rial prosperity, and the practice I of
those methods of independent self gov
ernment, even in minor ifoatters, which
underlie the great structure : of Ameri
can constitutional liberi'y regulated by
wholesome laws. . . - 1
It will be my most earnest endeavor
if entrusted with the performance of
judicial function, to properly appre
hend the duties of the" high position,
and then to discharge them to the best
of ray undertaking, and if possible,
with credit to myself and satisfaction to
the s;ood people ofths whole state re
gardless of party predilectious. The
partisous should be merged in the
judge. ; !.
' Thanking the convention for this
manifestation of confidence, and you
for the kind words, prompted by per
sonai friendship, contained in your
communication, :j
I am very reipectfuliy yours,

. President Arthur was in ikvor of the lm
prorements that are. being going on and
a'ao of tbe one recommended on the Miss
isslppl and Fotosnac Elvers, but several
thousands of small Improvements were
put in the bill never before heard of , and
which were not on the map. He thought
in : the preeeat condlUon of the ooontfy
thatthor should be left out; but the Con
gress had a majority of . whom were Re
publicans thought otherwise and so pass
ed the appropriation over his veto. So the
DemocraU can say nothing. Te peoplje

DISOrtACKFDL ECONOMY.
We are reliably informed that a poor
white wonWn living tn the neighborhood
of Eighth and Market streets, who ill
gradually dying with cancer, and who
has three little children, has been draw
ing from the county commissioners four
dollars per month, but a few days ago
the poor woman was notified that even
this pitiful amount had been cut down
to three dollars ner month. It is
IT w - - - a
a very great mystery to know hovr she
managed to live 1 on four dollars per
nionth! buta still greater one to know
what she can do on three ($3) dol
lars. If this is the kind of treatment
the poor is to receive at the hands of
the commissioners the people ought to
know it. This is the way our county
commissioners are reducing the expen
ses by cutting down the allowance of
the poor starving people. Did the com
missioners cut down the jay of the high
salaried officiolsf Of course not;j their
pay goes on but the poor must starve. .

' Judge Bennett opened the discussion
in an hours speech, of which I can of
course, only give you a synopsis. r
He : had, manifestly . prepared bis
speech expecting that . Hon. Chas.
Price Would be in company with Col.
Dockery at Fayetteville as he w ad
vertised, but although Mr. Price was not
there Judge Bennett made!personal al
lusions to him by. name and took occa-
sion to make the usual Bourbon charges 1
against him of being bought, &c, and I
Judge Biauolt made t the broad aster-
tion th at every Libaral ia the. sUte l
bad been purchased either by money or
promise of office.,. He deals largely in
aisertions and sterns to know more than
his opponents of the,; campaign and
it ia to be regretted by everybody want-,
inj fair play in this contest, that the
Judge is fully, impieised with the ner
cessity of practicing in debate ' the
Bourbon Order No 1, 'Lie like h 11
and stick to it.'' , He wanted the crowd
to understand that ia early life he had
learned to plow on a farm, Lut latterly
had been , practiciug . lair; bat if he
knows no more now about plowing than
he showed aa to the price of spool cot
ton he might be classed with that large
bat respectable body of "Horace Gice
ley farmers,'' who make large preten
sions upon little experience. He spoke
feelingly of the late war an endeavored
to kindle a .flame of passions in . his
audience by referring to those, horrors
and .disolutions through "which - under
Bourbon folly we bad to pass, and that
sensible and patriotic Deoote ere trvinit
bim to iralize that Vuo wind bas
shifted." He had much to. say of
bloated bondholders of the i north and
endeavored , 4.0 .. array bit . audience
against the . northern section . of the
Union because Bourbon, folly in the
past, had given, them the: opportunity
to grow t ricfi1, at the same time making
us poor. He spoke of : ''corneri'. in
