that humility was essential to the formation of just

Mr. Dobbin. In 18 PS or '4'J he entered upon bis.
studies there. In 1852 Mr. Dobbin and .Mr. Pe-
ocrats of Cumberland tor se.-.ts in the Legislature,
and were elected. In ldo'-i it was 'not deemed ne-
cessary to hold a convention as the l ite members
had given entire satisfaction and v ere considered
on ail bauds us the parly candidates. In this
view Mr McDutlie uid not concur, lie pitched in
"on his own hook," and attempted to secure his
election by the defeat of bis iivic.ul und .li gai pre-
ceptor.

that contest, among other means' reported toby
Mr McDudie to sve-uro his election was indulgence
j at the county precincts in harsh abuse and U;i-
seemly uuicule or the town ot rayetievnie wiu ro
he was raised aud wiiere he lived. We remarked
that he failed, and from this time he lo.t the coi
iideuco and esteem of the democracy lit re. In
1854 one of the nominees of a convention having
declined to accept the nomination, a:idit being too
late to re-assi nible it, Mr MeDudie, who was de
feated in the convention, as ho had "au abstrnct
right to do" came lorwai'd ns a candidate, another
gentleman also came forward. The democracy
were compelled, having four cnudh bites in t he field,
and violently opposed, to concentrate upon three
d' these four candidates, and "the lot nil upon
Mathias." Thus Mr. McDuMiu succeeded in bis
object. Will it be credited.' that thus a listed 1 .

deliberately went into tbe Know Nothieg Lodge at
li'deigb, in compatiy with one of his late Vh:g
opponents, and received tho '-third degree" 'at
the bauds of tho lion. Kenneth Rainer. The fact
is so however. When the Legislature adjourned

.ars to any one who would prove it. It is hiuidhu
chat with every one of that irty iu Fnyettevillo
the Col. 'a double faced speeches.
In the K N. L-i .ge on Saturday evening after
the Clinton Convention v.'uicb lioauiiate.l M r. VV ins
low in 1S,1.3, Mr McDulIiie's name bcit.g before that
convention, althougit he was a K. N. at the time,)
and on the eve of tho Elizathtowit Convention
which nominated Mr. Keid, Col. McDullie made a
most rantunkerous speech" denouncing the dem
ocratic party. Said be understood all their ways,
tricks and contrivances was fully posted and if
the K. N. party woitM onlv nominate I, on, "throw
the bridle over his head and frii'n him loose" he
would beat and d -stroy them, be only asked that
he might be permitted to pass as a tl nun-rat
plevlgio"- himself to the principles .of the K. N.
party. JIe called deuiocrats by name, denounced
men who had grown grey in the service of demo
cracy, spoke of them as spies in every assembly
of tile people, even at the class m-je-ings to carry
out the machinery of tho Democratic, party.
Is if to be credited that hardly a day or two had
elapsed, in another place, be declared he was not
a member of that party never had been ie
nouueed such uu accusation u slander, and indulg
ed in abuse of that party in th'j lace of many who
had beard the first speech. Yet there arc living eye
witnesses of these facts, ready at any time to vouch
them.
When the Know Nothing convention in fail
ed to nominate him, be turned tail upon them, and
sought admission again into tbe denioi ratic ranks.
He bad "the abstract right" to vote with us, but 1;
failed to jret, and never w ill get tbe conrMeiue of dies
democracy who know him ; in tbe succes.-ive nomi
nations for two Legislatures be faik-d to get tbe noiu
ination.
Surelv upon this st.itement no democrat proper
will vo.e for him. Can any member of the K. N...
vote lor him? His treachery to them is, perhaps,
as great, onlv that he deserted the democratic party
while he was" their standard bearer iutne Legislature.
He joined the K. N.'s, they failed to give him their
nomination, be went into their councils, possessed
himself of their coiilideiitial communications, bid
for their support, upheld their principles, and when
he could get no promotion from them, deserted and
dnnouced them.
