THE QUESTION OF TROOPS IN NORTH CAROLINA. We undertake to say that the cry of Federal troops in North Carolina to intimidate the people of the State i4 1 du.ivir.r'ir a zr r Art. iv, Sec. 4, of the Constitution of the United States feeds, as follows: "The United States ihf li guarantee to "every State in this Union, a Republi can form of government, and shal "protect each of them against invasion "and on application of the Legislature "or pf thexequte(wha thejLegis "lature cannot" be corivened,)v against "Democratic violence." j f tw i " ? - ' i i wpH amenameni io tne same instrument is as follows : "The powers "not delegated to the United States bv "the Constitution, nor prohibited by "it to the States, are reserved to the '.Slates respectively, or to the people." bo that there are really two ways by which troops could be sent into the State to , intimidate,, the, people,7 viz: uy can oi the legislature, and by ; the Governor. -The Legislature is not in session and will not be until after the election,, and Gov. Rrogden dare not declare .his State in It condition to need Federal troops. under the provi sions tof the' law- without ' the feaV: of impeachment upon the assembling of the next session of the Legislature.

Marshall Packard has secured a regiment of colored cavalrywhich is now on its way frtmhe. 1 iloJio police duty in Louisiana. These tolofed ''UoTSctSiiTfifiii for his purpose because the white troops mix '" with the : people, and j be come infected with th el r MeasV , Color ed troops, however, will not mix with the people, but, on the t contrary will be useful in preventing the . blacks from ' joining the Deniociaiic ranks In ibis question of outrage" tliere; U more than one eidt, , -While the Radi they are making every preparation to defeat by corrupt means the wishes of the majority These means will be the same as thoseetiployed in 1874, The Returning -Bfcard till exists, and is composed of the eiiue men who cheated the people rn' the' last elec tion. Tom Anderson, Madison Wells and Kenner, partisans virulent and un principled, still constitute its members. Anderson is a candidate on the Re publican, ticket,: Wells is a Fedej-al official -while kenner is an internal -revenue inspector. ; These men, all immediately interest ed in the -success of the State and national Republican tickets, are to count the votes and announce the re sult of the election. There is no ap' peal from their decision. The Su preme l-oort has decided in more than one instance that the decision of the Returning Board is final, and is under no circumstances subject to judicial supervision or investigation. As this board generally assembles privily in a crypt, like Dean Swift gen erally said: his prayers, there is no way of reacnirg it. lne troops are here to guard it to see that its labors are in no wise interferred with. The law, creating ...this board gives it the right to reject the vote of any polling precinct on the ex parte statement or affidavit of a single voter without re gard to intelligence, honesty, race, color, present or previous condition. A correspondent writing to the New Ycrk Worm finder date of Aus. G says : In the parish of West Feliciana, where the negroes are flocking to the Democratic standard, Packard's agents are busily engaged iu endeavors to stir up a bloody strife between the races in tni3 parisn not many aays ago a plot to murder Colonel Robert H Bar row and his family was discovered by lne timely coniession of a Mack man who had been approached to join it. lne ringleaders were arrested, confess ed their guilt, and offered, as a pallia tion of their ottense, the fact that tnev had been instigated to the deed by the white Radicals of the parish. What are the white people to do in an in stance of this kind ? In the parish in question there are 2,000 registered col ored voters and about 2UU white regis tered. The minority are completely at the mercy of the majority. The courts are in the hands of ignorant colored men, and the law officials are those who are instigating the crimes. It was in this parish that young Hale was dragged from his mother's room and shot down by a mob of infuriated blacks so close to that mother that his brains at.d blood bespattered her clothes. W. D winter, wno naa a Dig Drain and a warm heart, was called to the window of his study, wherein be sat teaching his little boy, and brutally shot down in the presence of his household. In this parish where I have stated there are 2,000 registered colored voters to 200 whites, there is a company of sol diers stationed for the avowed purpose of protecting the majority from the mineritv: Yet for one neero killed in that parish there bavebeen five white men brutally murdered. , What is the material condition of the parish ? The whites are impoverished, the blacks are working on half wages, while a few Radical omce-holders are living in lux ury and fast buying up the best pro perty to be had in the country: The gradual impoverishment of the voters oi pour races ana xne rapid ; enrjen-. ment of the office-holders have at last appealed to the slow minds of the blacks, and a complete revolution has taken place in their nolitical senti ments.; As in this parish; so in many others. The logic of bread and butter has carried conviction to minds un impressible to jbhe eloquence of man.

F. Mercer. Trenton, N. C. Mr. Ferney Mercer is a farmer of Jones county and is well known in this section. On the 1st of August formal applica tion was maddto the County Commiss ioners oi Jones county for the Ulerk of the Court to certify to the correct ness of a statement made by M. Ben jamin Askew, in regard to the hireing out of white men and white women by the Board of County Commissioners to negroes. Tlie4Board refused the ap plication. Mr. Jar vis our candidate for Lieutenant Governor, and Maj. Engelhard, candidate for Secretary of State, being present at Trenton, exam med. the records themselves, and they will testify in every speech they make that the statement of Mr. Benjamin Askew is correct as taken from the records of the court. She Knew the Beast. '"You see this hoss, don't you?" called out a woman about forty years of age as she drove up to a Grand River avenue blacksmith shop yester day. The smith came out end replied that his sight was good. "I want a shoe on that hind foot right to once," she continued, and she jumped down and had the horse almost out of the old wagon before the smith reached the curbstone. She led the beast into the shop, sat down on the bench and prepared to take a smoke, and as- the blacksmith took down a shoe she observed "No fooling, now, I want that shoe to stick to that foot for a whole year You can't impose on me 'cause I'ma woman." After the hoof had been prepared the horse suddenly became restive, dancing around and bothering the shoer so that he could not proceed "louoon t seem to have had any experience with horses" remarked woman, as she rose up and laid her pipe aside. 'T know this beast from Dan 1 to Besheba, and you just git back a little. The smith retreated a few feet and the- woman caghl the horse by the bits, gave him a two hundred pound kick iu me rios ana veued : Whoa! Charles Henry get around there stand overhand take that and this and . some more'! Now come up and toe the mark !" Charles Henry kicked u the anvil on the block as she kicked his ribs, but she kicked the hardest, and when the borse-sboer stuck ' his head into the shop the horse was half over a hench. but as quiet as a lamb. ' JNow purceed. said the woman, as she picked up her pipe. "When a hoss goes to fooling around me and scbing for a row he's laving up sor- sow for his gray hairs !"
