The thirteen Colonies, by their
Declaration of Independence, de
clared that "all men are created
equal; that they are endowed by
their Creator with certain inaliena
ble rights; that among these, are
life, libetty and the pursuit of hap
piness. That to secure these rights
governments art instituted among
men deriving their just powers from
the consent ot the governed; that
whenever any form of government
becomes destructive of these ends,
it i3 the right of the people to alter
or abolish it, and to institute a new
government, laying its foundation
on such princtp.es, and organizing
its powers in such form, as to them
shall seem most likely to effect their
safety and happiness." Mankind
are more disposed to suffer, while
evils are sufferable, than to right
themselves by abolishing the form
of government to which they are
accustomed; and fortunately for the

The best thinz o" the season that
I hav heard of to k place at Ball's
Creek Camp Meeting, in Catawba
county, about the 12th of August.
I am informed by Mr. U N. West,
a prominent Republican (who was
there iu the crowd) that a crow 1 of
Democrats and People's Party ite..
were discussing politics. The Dem
ocrats sai that the Peoplo'.s party
were aiding in bringing back the
dark days of 'OS, under the Cauby
Constitution, neg.o rule, mixed
schools, etc. Mr. W. 1. Lawrence,
a prominent Republican of Catawba
county, asked them if they knew
thatGrover CleveUnd, while he was
Governor of the S:ate of New York,
signed a bill, pasI by a Democrat
ic House (of course), favoring mix
ed schools. Mr. Liwronce said that
he would oet 11 ny ooiurs and give
his note, as he did not have the
money, acd his credit was good. Mr.
Henry Lawrence, n prominent Dem
ocrat, s tirl that he would take the
bet. The notes were drawn and
tinned and put in the hands of some
one in the crowd. The next morn
ing Mr. Henry Lawrence came to
Mr. W. E. Lawrence and told him
that he wanted to take up his note,
as he knew that he was tellink the
truth, but would rather have lost
fifty dollars than to have owned it
before those People's party men.
Iredell county put out a full ticket
on the 3rd of September for the Peo
ple's party. I have not heard yet
the nominees. The People's party
in Catawba county have out a full
ticket, supported by the Republi
cans : Alexander the same, i. e., a
