News from the Fifth District. A gentleman from Greensboro' brings the intelligence that Col. John Winston of Caswell, the Greenback Labor candidate for Congress in the fifth district, withdrew from the race, a few days ago, leaving the field clear to Gen. Scales and ex Judge Tourgee. The same gentle man brings the further information that Gen. Scales' election is a matter of no doubt whatever. The Republi cans are apathetic and some of the leading members of the party about Greensboro are hostile or at least very cool toward Tourgee.. The withdrawal of Winston renders the assurance of Gen. Scales' election doubly sure. While Winston never had a ghost of a chance of election his continued candidature would have drawn some votes from the Democratic candidate. As it is the I race is practically at an end. Char !in.. -vi lone wuisciyer. 1 1 in. i ii rt 1 . 1 1 1 rs .iiiiiii 111 ihv iiimi j Shocking Infanticide.
