THE ELECTION THE UESULT
Will DUtT.
This week over portion of (hit rot
eonntry lui witnessed more or less of e
citetnent. This week in tverj Suie, in
every county, in every city ami town ir.
tha United Slates hai the people voted
for the election of a ehii-l mi i tlu of
this niition. Eight year luvc flap-
-d tinee all the peopleof die Utiited Sntes
united in a national election. And how
many scenes of suffering and horror crowd
tliemi elves into the recollections of ibosii
eight year t At the time of ihe last national
I electioQ fora President Cf the ublic the
pen jilt- of the two great sec ions he conn
try were contending with each i the deadly
striti. of civil war. Fraternal hlool had
ensanguined every plain, and the bones
of the bravest and best of the Ian I lay
bleaching on a hundred battle fields.
To in in y, at that time, it did not seem
.passible that the people of the hostile sec
tions could over be brought to unite to
gether again in another election for a
chief magistrate of too whole" country.
' But man proposes and Gd disposes."
Th great event, which to so many men
then seemed impossible, has just ta
ken place. Its recurrence should be
the signal of poace ami harmony to our
distracted country, and we trust that, in
the good providence of God, such will
provo to be the case. Yet, we must con
fess, that we cannot see how it is likely to
prove to be so. But tb5 wisest of men
in mo t fathom the designs of Him, in whose
kinds, are the destinies of nations.
As yet we have heard the result from
but few Stares, hut we have hoard enough
to satisfy as that Gen. Grant has
been eleeted by a large majority of
the electoral vote. And though wo la
bored to effect n different result th"te was
but a very brief period of the canvass
when we expected it would be otherwise.
When wo read the platform of the Demo
cratic Convention, an 1 considered it in
connection with" the nomination of Gen.
Blair, wc well nigh gave up all hope, We
told our associate then, we feared tint
the convention, in its madness and folly,
had thrown contemptuously away nil the
splendid prospects, which were beginning
to arise from the change of public senti
ment at the North. Afterward we were
led by the tone of thfl Northern Conserva
tive press to hpe that we were mistaken
that there really was some chance of J
lion in Maine, convinced ns that our first
impressions were correct. If any thing
els - had been wanting to rivet this con
viction it would have been furnished bv
lervards with the prudence necessary to
effect a complete and fiaal defeat. But
admit these constitutions were oar filed
upon as, for a lime at least, in spile of our
opposition, t advised submission with
i In. best graea possible, to what vs saw
was inevitable, and going lute the Presi
dential campaign upon existing and living
issues. We culd sec no hope of success
but in such a course.
There Is no evidence that the recon
struction measures ever met wllh the full
approbation of Gen Grant. II is well
known to have been at o le time strongly
in favor of carrying out ih p dioynf Pres

rlie fiek' labor now employed in this State,
made up in most pirt of ein incip ifed ne
groes, is cliear and more reliable, than
the labor employed sdiere they came friim.
If ifi's statement be true, it is fact for our
people in pimder over. Soma allowance
must be made, of course, for these eentle-
ith none the less jny because men want nt experinee with the negm.
the result of the State elections in I'. nn
sylvama Ohi and Indiana. Smee that
time we have considered the contest al
most solely in it bearings upon the inter
esls of the people of North Carolina.
Yes, the great Deuncratie and ConSerr.a
live party has been defeated, ami tho mor
tification of its defeat is greatly intensifi
ed by the reflection that it was the
result of its own folly that its leaders
were so elated with the prospect of sue
cess which appeared within view as to
rentier them incapable of acting with wis
dotu, moderation and discretion. Indeed,
we are afraid that thoy did tot even act
with the highest patriotism that they at
tempted to appropriate to the purposes of
party what should have been appropriated
to the good of the country
Bat enough of this. G; Grant has
been elected the next President of the
United States, and it is with him that we
now have to deal. His election ensures
tho present triumph of the Congression
a1 policy of reconstruction in all the
Southern States. To th.it policy no man
ifiould have been more opposed than we"
- were. - We regarded it as unconstitution
al, tin wise, aud destructive of the best in
terests -of the country. We did every
thiag in- our power w-fhwartft-'and-'prcvent
its success n .finally carried out. We
wisheito check t,he, progress of the revo
lution, while it wU yet oossihle to do so,
by graeefully conceding a iialif5ed suf
fragw to the colored "people." When we

even if disposed to do tha very best
he can, commit some blunders. Nothing
else can be expected. Bat he should be
judged by his general course after a fair
trial. And wo hopo tb it the Southern
people, at least, will give him such a trial,
and that they will do nothing calculated
to provoke harshness from him. If he
shows a disposition to consult tln ir good
and act for their best interests, it will be
their duty, if not their pleasure, to
sustain him, and wo hopo they will do so.
3neb, at least, is the course which we e v

Mr. Daniel Dcchcrt, of the Hagcrstown

Mary landers, recently made n visit to the
South for the purpose of vie wing the coun

tbis immediate section of our State with

That negro labor is cheaper than the
white labor of the North, we have no
doubt. But we have always supposed
tint it was less reliable. Nobody loves to
work ; M'e all labor from necessity ; or
desire of gain ; or from some other motive
than a ia"ri love ol the liine. No one
loveV work lor iiself. Such are the hub
its, education and desire's of the negro
thai he only works to supply present ne
cessity ; and that necessity he sometime
prefers to supply in a less honorable and
less irksome way, viz : by pilfering. W e
hear daily complaints from the farmers iu
the surrounding country, that their corn
fields and guldens are pillaged, their stock
killed, &c, and there can be uo doubt
lhat such depredations are wholly the con
sequences of indulging in idleness Refu
sing to work, tho creatures have no alter
native left but to steal or s arve, and as
between these, it is not doubtful how they
will choose.
Yet they are not all so. Many of the
negroes are good hiboiers ; the others
may become such. It is difficult, to get a
man to woik constant! v and closely who
is not working for himself. Human na

try to prevail upon them all to go to
work ; pay tfiein for their labor and kenp
