CONCORD, NORTH CAROLINAi.SATURDAY, APRIL 7, 18
, Henry Clay Whigs.
And nov7 John Tjler, Jr is writ
ing letters advocating the revival of
the old Whig party. .Remembering
the mortal stab that Mr. Tyler's
father gave to that party it would
eccm that be of all men might well
hold his tongue about its resurrec
tion. It is quite the fashion, however,
to talk about reviving the old Whig
party, and to make appeals to the
old Henry Clay Whigs puce more to
come to the front as if there was
6towcd away some where an im
mense kody of..voter8 xvho were
ready at a moment's notice to rush
fato battle under the 'standard of
their old leader.
But tho men who make these ap
peals evidently forget beveral things.
They iorget that thirty three years
have passed since ilr. Clay's last
campaign begun, and therefore the
youngest, the very youngest possible
of his supporters in that campaign
must now have attained the respec
table, if not vererable age of fifty-
lour years. If the fledgelings of tho
then great Clay party aro now gray
beards of fiityfive and sixty, how
old aro the remainder, and what
has become of them ? Tho fact is,
the great body of the men who con
stituted the Henry Claj Whig party
have, like their rcverod leader, pass
cd from the scene of action.
Another thin:' too, is forgotten
and yet it is one material to bo ro
membcred. that is to sav tho num
. . -
ber of Henry Chiy Whigs. All told
n 1844, Mr. Clay did not receive
44,000 votes in North Carolina, but
little more than a third of the num
ber of totes Governor Vanco receiv
ed in the last election I Thirty three
years bring about wonderful
changes. Thirty-three years fiora
noxv where will be the great majority
of th controling spirits of the devot
ed adherents of tho Democratic par
ty ? The answer is cas; they will
just as sorely be in their grave, as
aie the men w.ho. focghA the cam
pa igu. of 2t$irL, fntLced, wo venture
to say that all tfec men now living
in. North Carolina who voted for
Henry Clay will not nnmberas many
as 6cvcn thousand.
We do not think, then, there is
any danger to bo apprehended frorry
appealsHo Henry Clay Whigs. It
would be a resurrection indeed that
would brin"! them to the front
. .
Nor is it because of their lack of,
numbers only.that wc fear them not.
but -because of their abundance of
patriotism a3 Well.
The constant appeals to Henry
Clay Whigs reminds us very much
of the average editor who continues
to nrge his readers to plant less cot
ton and more corn, until long aftor it
is too late to plant ' either cotton or
corn. It comes from tho force of
habit, and from "inconsideralion,"
as 'Father Taft would say. It is
getting about time now, however, to
give our venerable friends who voted
for Mr,. Clay a breathing time. I. is
hard on the old gentlemen to stir
them up so often. Raleigh Observer.

The country organ is to the resi
dent in rural neighborhoods the
camera luciJa which faithfully por
trays all lhat occurs; it is in a great
measure iho reflex of the character
of the people comprising the country
wherein it is published. But what
is the interest which even he derives
from it, compared to that which is
felt and entertained by the country
people themselves? It is everything
to them. In it is found news which
they alone, probably, can appreciate
and understand; information regard
ing their friends and neighbors, the
condition of crops anJ market quo
tations which to farmer and trades
man in the country is. of primary
importance; matters of local consid
eration wherein they are interested,
and a hundred and one different
things which affect and interest
them, both privately and publicly.
The country organ performs another
function which can only beeffectual
ly done by it. As a medium for ad
vertising it'offers facilities which are
unsurpassed. yBy it the farmer,
labuier and the mechanic becomes
acquainted with the goods and
wares of tho tradesmen, they learn
where they can purchase what they
desire, and at the lowest prices. J'he
county newspaper is to. a county
wh t nutritious food Is to a conval
escent, it helps to build it up and de
velop all that is good in it. The
county that is without one is like a
waste plain without elevation from
which a person desiriner to examin
the surroundings ca finke aof ob
servation. ' V
For cool assumption! commend us
to tho National Itegoblican : It
says : "It looks verjrniueh now as
though Wade Hampton would be the
Governor of South; Carolina,. and
that that State wonld-iereafter be
Democratic, But with, this change
in South Carolina there will come
one in both Tennesse" and North
Carolina, as these States will be Re
publican by the .accession of the
Old-Line Whigs." This-ieminds us
that during the campaign the cry
was raised that the WhTgs of North
Carolina would break awaj from
Vance and vote for Mr. Settle and
Mrr Hayes. But the Ire, stuck in the
throats of the Radicals : before" the
tlajvof voting came on. VThe Whigs
who have followed the Conservative
banner since4:the wai, went in un
broken line. to the support of" the
Democratic candidate;;'"": who was
himself an Old-Line Whiir. There
are in stronger opponents of JtacH
calism in the South than the Whiiw;
and the intimation' thrown out by
the Iteubliean journal tba these
launch friends ofeon?litutional gov
ernment, ot law, of liberty, of hon
esty and justice, are ready, any of
them, to join the ranks of tbe corrup-
tionists, is as absurd as it is insulting,
Tho , Whigs of North Carolina, will
neveJ be found with a party whose
recoxd shows in o very line thb widest
departures from Whig1 j.rincipies.

From the Augusta Chronicle; April 1st.
LETTER FROM GOVERNOfcvVANCE.
Editors Chronicle and donstitutional-
it:
Dear Sirs Your letter . has been
received, asking ray views as to the
position tho Southern Democracy
should occupy towards Mr. Hayes,
and whether they should apply for
or hold office under h:s administra
tion, etc.
Briefly and simply, then : In eve
rything, except the me:e forms of
law, I regard Mr. Hayes as a usurp-
w-a 1 .
cr. iy maintaining armeu interven
tion in States recently declared by
the commission, under v bich he
claims to be so sovereign, that no
act of theirs could be impeached or
oven lLquired into, though tainted
by a fiaud that would have voided
any other human transaction in any
court in Christendom, he is flagrant
ly defying the Constitution of his
country. Every day that United'
States troops are kept in and about
the State Houses of South Carolina
and Louisiana by Mr. Hayes' order,
he is guilty of crucifying the Con
stitution afresh and putting it to
open shame. And all men who hold
office under him of political signfi
cancc, aro holding his garments
whilst Liberty is bayoneted to death.
The plea of uniting with evihdocrs
lor the purpose of controlling them
is as contemptible as it is stale. It
lost its efficacy in the service rene
gade native Southerners, v ho joined
the Radicals in time to participate
in the reconstruction era of plunder.
The duty of the Southern Demo
crats, as well as of the Northern
Democrats, and of Democrats and
friends of constitutional liberty
everywhere, is to wage open war
against Mr. Hayes and all other
men who disregard the plain pro
visions of that great charter of the
rights of theStatcs 'and of the peo
ple. Especially is it the duty of
the Democracy to see that not
another dollar is voted to the sup
port of thb army until guarantees
are given that it shall no longer be
used, to destroy the States and shear
them of their just powers:
I see no objection to Democrats
filling subordinate positions to which
no significance is attached, except
in so far as the sense of obligation to
the appointing power may weaken
the blows which an honost man
should always be ready to strike the
enemies of hi3 country's honor and
welfarei Your?, respectfully,

The Furore Tor Wade Hamp
ton "-Incidents of His Visit.
Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.
Washingtox, March 30.-Through
the whole of tooday crowds of men
- stood around the pavement in front
1 of Willard's waiting to catch a
glimpse of Gov. IHamptonJ Cham
berlain, who has been hero all th
week, comes and goes without an1
one knowing or caring who he U
The contrast between the respect
and attention paid to the two is
very marked. The instant that Gov
Hampton appears in public the peo
pie rush up and surround him. Twoo
the .most enterprising livery stable
keepers of Washington sent to the
hote to-day the handsomest turn
il "."
outs in their estaqnshments, ana
placed them at Gov. Hampton's dis
posal. Gov. Hampton could not
ride in both carriages at once, and
the rivulry on the subject between
the two stablekeepers as to who
should have him became so intense
that it ended in fisticuffs, which were
only suspended by the interference
of the police.
Dr. Mary Walker was of those who
joined the throng paying homage to
Gov. Hampton. She endeavored, but
without suceessv-to pursuade some
one of the waiters to carry her card to
Gov. Hampton's room. Finally she
espied Senator Gordon and asked
bim to secure her an interview,- but
he informed' her that Gov. Hampton's
time was so much occupied that he
could not see any one. But this
would not satisfy Dr. Mary, and sue
planted, herself at the foot of the
stairs to intercept Gov. Hampton as
he caaie down. Col. Cake, the pro
prietor of the hotel, went to her and
told her she must leave. ,Sbe said
this was insulting, and he replied
that if she would dress in the apparel
of her sex she would not expose her
self to , insult. At this she drew
back and aimed her cane at the col
onel, who retreated hi good order.
Then,. after giving him a little piece
of her mind, she departed. The
a
coast being clear Gov. Hampton
then came down stairs, and be and
Senator Gordon took a ride around
the city.
Accident on the Richmond
and Danville Railroad..
Richmond State.
Saturday night, about 1 o'clock, as the
do.wn freight train on the Richmond and
Danville Road was approaching Sott6burg,
and was entering the bridge over Difficult
Creek, in Halifax county, ninet3r-eight and
a half miles from the city, the engine struck
a cow, and was thrown from the track, and,
plunged against the bridge, broke through
and went down into the creek, carrying
with it six card tilled with freight. The
bridge, and wrecked cars caught fire from
the emrine and wore eonsuiiicd. The en-
gineer, J. T- Kid well, anl James Danger
field, the fireman, were with great difficul
ty rescued from the wreck.
The wounded men were brought to this
city last night. A committee from Jeffer
son Lodge, No. 23, Knights of Pythias, and
Stewart Grove, No. 5, Druids, with Drs
Coleman, Cunningham, and JamQS from the
Almshouse, met them at the depot. Kid
well was placed in the ambulance and ta
ken to his home on Union Hill
Mr. Kid well was one of the best and most
careful engineers on the road, and this is
the fiirst accident he has ever had.
Mr. Kid well's arm was amputated to-day
at 2 o'clock, and hisconditon is very critical.
The ameunt of damages to the railroad
property, including bridge, locomotive and
cars, is about $15,000. The amount I of
freight which was lost could uot be ascer
tained. There was a good deal of loose to
bacco on the train consigned to' Richmord
houses. Freight trains will be running
through by to-night.
Will Wonders Sever Cease.
The following is a very fair speci
men of honest square talk to come
from a Radical mouth. We confess
our surprise that the devil, or rather
that one of his imps, is not quite as
black as heretofore painted.
It is not often that we have a
good woixi for politicians and news
paper men of. tbe Radical persuasion.
O.ur experience with that class of
people has taught us that the good
ones- are those whose spirits have
gono hence to that undiscovered
bourne whence fortunately there is
no retnrn, though there doubtless
may be returning boards. In fact,
not to put too fine-a point upon it,
wo had thought the process of.disin
tcgration was very improving to the
average Radical politician. ,
But our Boan Mountain Republi
can cotemporary has, converted us,
and we sincerely hope he may live a
thousand years to promulgate such
NO. 52-
tealthy sentiments as some of those
contained in his last issue. It said:
"The idea that the government
could run the army half a year, or at
least five months, without appropri
ations has not been a very promising
jpnef and we do not regret to bear
that it will probably have to be
abandoned. It would be precisely
one of those stretches or evasions of
law of which we, have had quite
enough in the past epoch. An extra
session of Congress is regrettable
because it seems to be called for on
a oarren lormauty. iiut it is a
pretty big formality, and one that
stands between the public purse and
irresponsible and arbitrary expendi
ture. Besides, we are not so fright
ened at anassemblihg of Congress.
The new administration is not so
sacred that it cannot be approached
by the representatives of the people
and discussed if necessary." i

While J udge Carter, of the Districf.of Co

instituted in this court to test the title of
Mr. Hayes to the Presidency, upon the au
thority of a gentleman who has seen the

prepared and in the hands of Hon,, R. T
Merrick, a lawyer of Washington, who
represented Mr. Tilden before the Electoral
Commission. It is said the suit will be
commenced as soon as the troops are with
drawn from South Carolina;- It is claimed
though the Electoral Commission had not
power under the electoral law to ascertain

have the power to sift the question by a

had been stationed, by order of my
predecessor, in the State House at

them in that place I have thought
proper to delay a decision of the
question of their removal until I
could consider and detei mine wheth

,$tate is now such as to either require
dr justify the continued military oc
cupation of the State House. In my
opinion there does not exist in that
State such domestic violence as is
contemplated by the constitution as
the ground upon which the military
power of the National Government
may be invoked for the defense of
the State. There are, it is true grave
and serious disputes as to the rights
of certain claimants to tbe chief ex
ecutive office of that ;3tate. But
these aVe to be settled and determin
ed, not by the Executive of tho
United States, but by such orderly
and peaceable means as may be pro
vided by the Constitution and laws
of the State, h I feel assured that no
resort to-violence-is contemplated in
any quarter,. but that on the contra
ry the disputes in question are to b
settled solely by such peaceful reme
dies as the- Constitution and the
laws of the State provide. Under
these circumstances and in this con
fidence I now deem it proper, to take
action In accordance with, the prin
ciples announced, when 1 entered
upon ihe duties of the presidency.
You are therefore directed to see
that the proper orders arc issued

al interests of bur State,
you &ifo equally convin
ced of my
earnest wish to aid in accomplishing
this happy end. As I may not have
the pleasure of seeing yu again on
this subject, it may bo proper to put'
beforojyou in tho fullest and most
a. - -
definite formtha assurances given to
you vserbally. : I repeat, therefore,
that if tho Federal troops aro with
drawn from tho Stato Ilouso there
shall be on my part or that of my
friends, no resort to violence to' as
sert our claims. But that wo shall
look for their maintenance solelr to
such peaceful remedies as tho Con
stitution and laws of tho Stato pro
vide. I shall use all my authority to
repress the usoor exhibition of force
in the settlement of all disputed
questions, and this authority shall
be used in such a manner that the
peace shall"be prescrvod We only
desire the establishment
of a government which
in our State
will secure-
to every citizen, the Io
west id well
as the highest, black as well as white,
full and equal protection
in theonjoy-
ment of all his rights under the Con
stitution of tho United States. No-
one can bo more doeply iroprcsscl
than myself with tbe imperative ne
cessity of establishing cordial rela
tions between all classes and both
rates in South Carolfna, for it Is on
ly by these means that jtbe true and'
enduring welfare of toe State can
be secured with tho recognition of
the perfect equality of 4very citizen
before the law. With aj just and im
partial administration of the Iawsr
with a practical and sexjure oxcrcUc-
of the rights of suffiage, with system
of public education, whi ;h will open
the sources of knowledge to all class
es, we may hope to seo . our Statu
soon take tho position to which she
is entitled. It was the patriotic hope
to aid in the accomplishment of
those high aims that called me from.,
my retirement to becomo a tanui-
date for the office of Governor of
South Carolina. It was through the
confidence of tbe people of that Slate .
that I would honestly and faithfully
carry out all these purposes that 1
was elected their Chief Magistrate,
and I feel profoundly that peaco can
be surely preserved there, and pros
perity restored by assuring tour peo
ple that the right of "local elf-gov
ernment so prominently ibroughl
orward in your inauguralj and sw
avbrablv received by tbe whole
country, is to be promptlvj carried
out as the rule of your administra
tion.
I anticipate the ready fulfilment
of tho just and reasonable hope in-
spired by the announcement 01 tiu -
policy you nave unloidcu, a poiwy
which, found a responsive echo in
yvery patriotic heart, as indicating u
purpose to administer the! govern
ment in tho true spirit of tho consti
tution. ,
In conclusion', permit me to assure
you that I feel the strongest confi
dence that the wise anu pair.om ,
policy announced in your inaugural -will,
Us soon as it takes shape inac

whole country will enjoy thc bless
