At lhe tolling of the . court house bell at twelve o'clock yesterday the republican cortege of Buncombe county, and elsewhere; marched in , .i -i solemn procession to inai Dunaing and filled the benches up. There were no loose mottoes upon the walls bearing such legends as "Burn this Letter;" or "God Save our Country;" or "GodBlesS our Home;" or "Grandpa's Pants Won't Fit Bennie;" or "The Internal Reven ue Law Mu3t Go;" or "Time and Tide Waits for no Man," or, any other biblical or patriotic indications of the oft-avowed, and as. oft-broken declarations of the "truly loyal" to subserve the best interests of the whole people.

Wolfe, Burton Brown, : Lazarus Clayton, Professor Win gate and about two hundred other radicals, of all conditions and cir cumstances. Tho meeting ; was opened by chairman George Washington Can non, who stated in soft republican tones, that the first business to be transacted, would be the appoint ment of a committee on credentials, to look into the certificates of the "visiting statesmen" and determine upon their eligibility to have voice and vote in the pow-wow. The com mittee was appointed, and after a few minute's retirement, returned and made their report which was accept d. j While the committee was out, editor Fi.x, of the "A.-H? suggested that it would be the proper caper to have an address from State Senator Wells, and State Senator Wells, be ing on hand, "the faithful" said that he might take his text, which he did. Mr. Wells mounted the plat form, and preached from "County Government and Democratic Wick edness." His remarks, communi cated the intelligence, that "he was glad to get up beloro a representa tive body of the people of Bun combe, and he was giau loreiurn thanks for the past favors bestowed upon him! in a senatorial way. The cause was a good one, ne assuren a the peoole. Ho .also announcea that he was a remibhcau an un doubted republican, and he was with his Dartv. He stated that mere were some things ' dearer to him than nartv alone, however. ; He be- lieved in.the elective power, he did, and he wanted the magistrates to be elected by the people, the dear, long eunenng, ni-aousea peopie. ne would show them the power behind the democrats throne, and he pro fessed to be able to show many thin 8 that no sane man ever At tempted before to do. He said that democracy deprived him and the people of the pleasure of electing his and their school-marms for the dear little children-the little nigger "'kid" and tie little white "kid." This was a most grievous.offence, in the eyes of the philanthropic, benevolent Senator from the State ol Bun combe. He then fell into the mud bole of protection, and came very near being drowned m ita sluggish waters, but he flustered around, and yelled democracy" until his protec tive ringers got stucfe into tree rade soil, and thus was he delivered from a direful catastrophe- Next he told the dear people that the democratic party denied tbe pecpla the privil ege of electing their own rulers, and said this practice was "damnable in its tendencies, Bhallerina the foun dations upon which it rested." This wa3 a very cute speech,"" and his next break consisted of a radical repetition of the Cole-Patterson case, and described the snowstorm on that, fateful day, as the "eternal snow that nearly reached the tropics. This was very fine. The appointive and electiye . system came in lor Senatorial explanation and condem- nation, and it-waff hard to decide of which he did the most. He told the audienca.exacUy how honest he would, be if lie-was entrusted with a thousand dollars by the chairman (Mr. Cannon),. with which to pur chase horses., s He would "iew" the farmer, down.tjo the to west cent, in order tc-3ave-the chairman every penny he Could. (The-attendants upon the-' funeral - did not relish thi?.) The Senator stated that the "br -heir : in black" was a black ho; in the race, and if he could "gu there," he had b8 (Well's; Sen atorial permission. The , opaque brethren grinned at this sally of wit, though many could not exactly grasp the speaker's meaning. The Senator then flaunted the future probability of haying negro magis trates in North Carolina, and inti mated that it would be very disa greeaHeo a 'democrat for a negro eherifi.or constable "to throw a '38' I?IFace and sayr 'Stop,, I'se gota warrant for yer arrest.' " " He also informed the people that the wives of white democrats would not feel very comfortable when they had to go before negro justices of the peace and Superior court clerks, to acknowledge deeds, and other legal papers, which is -required by law. After about half an hour of such rot and disgraceful insinuation, and inuendo, the "honorable Senator" from Buncome "broke it off." Parson Penland, from Reem3 Creek, here arose to inquire after the appointment of a secretary, but cries of "Malone," "Major Malone," knocked all the props from beneath the Parson's interrogation. The Major arose and "fired his gun off' in about the' following style: ''I don't know why vou should call on me;-1 am an inde pendent democrat, and this, I un derstand, a republican convention. 1 suppose, however, you knew that I was not for Cleveland. I amnot;and I am willing to go with the biggest party that can be gotten up to de feat him. 1 don't care, my country men, who compose that party, whether they be Catholics, demo crats, republicans, independents, or anybody else; I am against Cleve land. His administration is ruin ous to the country. The Mills bill is an inf-rii;tl combination. Sam Randall and Carlisle are controlled by the Louisville whiskey ring. I am a protectionist and I fo'low Sam Randall, a democrat, and Wm. D. Kelly, .a republican, and Andrew Jackson. I am a Jacksonian dem ocrat, and old Andrew would turn over in hia grave, if he could see the boys with white hats and tinj horns blowing sround." The Major here eulogized Jackson, and stated in vociferous language, that "he was a follower of the illustrious A. J." "The leaders"ofthe democratic r arty are --tlie damnedest traitors on cs-a'prove it. I can t prove it right night now, but 1 can prove it. lie pitched into the National bauking system, and came out about like he went in a hopeless lailure. then he fired into Maj. Breese's pride the Swannanoa democratic club, and then branched oft by saying that he was not a candidate for of fice; didn't want any office; wasn't going to ask anybody to vote for him. Ihese protestations provoked frequent smiles, and after going into the Cole-Patterson case, democratic "cussedness" in general, the surplus, etc., the Major subsided, and the permanent organization was ef fected. Col. Virgil S. Lusk was made permanent chairman, . and made a yery conservative speech upon accepting the honor conferred by the convention. He said that he thanked the people; he had attended Buncombe republican conventions for twenty years, but this was the largest and the most! respectable he had ever witnessed. He was very frank, and told the "faithful" that if they lost in this contest, the fare ' would go out with them for good. He wanted all to be up and doing for liberty and protection, and announced his intention of fighting the wicked" democrats as long as they dictated to him who and what he should vote for. He referred to the "present system of oppressive county government, that subverted our rights and abrogated our liber ties etc. r ; ; v . -Editor Fox, of the "A.-M." was chosen permanent secretary, and the reporters of the democratic press of the city were also invited to act as secretaries of the convention Deleer.tes to the Congressional and Senatorial conventions, from each. township in the county were elect edr""5d the following resolutions were unanimously passed The. committee on resolutions submitted the following report, which was read by Mr. Fox. "We, the republicans of Bun combe county in convention assem bled Resolve 1st That we ignore and condemn tbe action ot the Board of County Commissioners of Bun combe county in the oppressive en forcement of the no fence law im posed upon the people against their will, and in their wanton refusal to induct a " eounly officer into his office, after being elected by a Oa- jonty of the eopIe. -' Resolved 2nd, That whereas it has been suggested and made known that the great body "of the voters of Buncombe county without regard to past party affiliations, desire in the near future a maES-meeticg ior the purpose of nominating a full county ticket, therefore, be it re solved, by this convention that we approve the same, and do adionrn to meet in said mass-meeting lor the purpose indicated, at euh time and ? place aa the same - may be exiled. ; : G. W. Cannos Parson G. F. Penland,'from Reems Creek, -secured the; floor, CJand preached a sermon against the adoption of "Resolve No. 2." He was net in favor of a mixed organi zation. The mass-meeting two years ago pWed ' thunder" -with their "ducks," and he was bitterly op posed to its adoption. The parson spoke tibout ten minutes, and gave the straihout radicals "fits." But the resolution was passed over him his being the only dissenting vote against its acceptance. The parson said if the meeting was held a3 a mixed meeting that he should not support its candidates if he did not like them, and he "would be under no obligation in God's world to sup port them. A motion to instruct the delegates to senatorial convention, for editor Hardwicke, of the "A-H," was laid on the shelf, as was likewise a reso lution to instruct tho counly dele gates to congres;ional convention "to support none' but good, reliable republicans for Congress." "Mr. J. B. West introdtrctd a reso lutioa "heartily endorsing and wel coming the appearance of the Ad vabce-Herald, stating that they needed it, and pledging encourage ment towards its circulation as a valuable paper," which was unani mously adopted. Mr. Geo. W. Cannon announced that a "Protective Tariff Club" would be organized in the "A H" office at 5 o'clock, and the chairman put the cork in the jug. Tobacco Plants Damaged. From planters who were in the city yesterday from New Found, Turkey Creek and Leicester sections, we learned that the visitation of a severe hailstorm in those localities on Friday, played sad havoc with young tobacco plauts. Tne damage done to the growing plants cannot be accurately estimated, but the complaint shows that nearly one third of the sprou's were beaten to pieces by the hail. Vandcrbilt's View. Mr. T. H.
