I suppose there is not a county in
the Old North State that cannot fur
niBh'gocJ material and suitable tim
ber j to jpreient to our convention
when it meets in your city, as a can
didate for Governor. I am a close
readier of; yur paper and am sorry
that,! it i in every humble cabin
thatjresity iti every part of our State.
The State convention when it meets
mut tajke into consideration what the
proniiniat men mentioned have done
for ,he ! party in the past when the
dayp wre dark and there was but lit
tle frospoct of rallying our people.
In thosdiirk days who was our great
leader ?j f Of course a Buncombe
niai), K. B.' Vance, (tame to the aid of
of (he people of North Carolina and
led jthojttt tq living waters, and from
tba day the party has become united.
Tb4 people of North Carolina cannot
welj gq .pack upon as pure a man as
Dagielf :Q. Fowle, who represents
every element of Christian virtue and
wh4 ha done so much for the party
wbn the party was scarcely able to
keep itself; when his silver tongue
charmed our people from the sea
shore o the mountains in Cherokee.
It is : said the best I time to pay a
debt isj when you have the money. If
our people will take that view of the
case If trust when the convention
meets I in May that a thrill will go
thrbugh oar convention that we have
it in oor pwer to pay a debt of grati
tude t6, Daniel G. Fowle for his great
and faithful services. Let us place
hiri at the mast-head for Governor,
wiyi Sjp. Alexander, of Mecklenburg,
the; faJ-merB' friend. We will then
carry the State by from 20,000 to
25,t00 for j,Orover Cleveland, Fowle,

J am not a politician nor an office-
seeketl ba. I am a reader of your
valuable pftper and a true Democrat and
an)-naturally interested in the welfare
of the Democratic party; and from see
ing s$ much in print concerning who
8hfdl be our standard-bearer in the
approaching campaign, I am induced
toisaj la few words on that subject.
Oikr grand old State, "I am proud to
8ajr, has qoitej a number of men emi
nently fitted for the position of Gov
erhorJ many of whom have been
prominently mentioned in connection
with that bmce. But the point for us
toe consider is, not only who will make
ua the best Governor, but who can
p4!I t&e most rotes. We need a man
o f eeti 01 linen in tne comin&r cam-
paigi !whr can cross the line. We
have man' yoters who are very much
dissatisfied. They pay they have al
wiys been .voting the Democratic ticket
and tibiat etili all the time they are grad-
nauy pecoming poore;; tnat, strive as
hird a3 they may, starvation stares
them In the face, and a change must
comeJ That they don't know just
exactly how, nor what, but something
must 1 be .done; and many of these,
jqst for a change, voted with the Be'
phbucaoBV Now while I have no pa
tiencef with any such, it is so, and to
urn this element means so many
votes for the Democratic .partvi An
other larye element of the votes of
the State' who heretofore have had
small recognition at the hands of the
Democratic party and in the manage
ment of governmental affairs is that of
the farmers. While I am not a farmer,
my daily Intercourse with theui has
led ine to see the just cause for this
complaint. So large an. element
1$ entitled to recognition, and
their demands should he listened to,
Though not a member of the Alii
ance, I hear the sentiments of that
body expressed daily. While it is
Qot a political order, it is one that be
lieves in the rights of its members.
They cannot recollect when a farmer
occupied the Governor's chair, and
think they have as good gubernatorial
timber as the State affords, and want
to see one bf their number nil this
high office. Now I say, let us listen
to their appeals, and have a farmer
Governor. They present to us for
Consideration the names at such men
as lion. S. B. Alexander, Elias Carr,
JHdn. C W. McCammy, etc. Now
these are all good men, tried and true
Democrats.
I Mr. Alexander is, I think, their first
choice; and the one who can cross the
line. He can poll almost the solid
Alliance' vote. So, give us S. B
Alexander for Governor and Octa
ius Coke for Lieut. Governor.
I The KnightB of Labor are another
element which should not be over
loosed,, ana to carry ineir vote we
must have a prominent Knight for
some important office. I am told
"that N. B. Broughtoa aspires to
the office of State Auditor. I eay by
all mea&s give him the nomination
and he;, with the whole Democratic
ticket "will be elected. Coke and
Broughton on the State ticket will
help the Democratic ticket in Wake
county immensely. Let's carry Wake
by ail means. To that end 1 am very
respectfully your servant,

Washinoton, April 9th. Sesatb.
Among the petitions and memorials
presented and referred was one from
the publishers and; others of New
York for the passage of the House
bill for the issue of ; fractional paper
currency 10, 15 and 25 cents and
several in favor of jthe international
copj right law from typographical
unions in various States.
Mr. Fayne, from the committee on
foreign relations, reported the joint
resolution accepting the invitation of
the Belgian government to partici-
Eate in the internation il exhibition at
russels and appropriating $30,000
for that purpose. Passed.
The military academy appropria
tion bill was reported buck from the
ppropriations committee and placad
on the calendar- '
Mr. Teller, from the committee on
patents, reported . back tho House
bill to give validity, to certain patents
fojanyentionB !that; were irregularly
issued (being: signed by Second
Assistant Secretary of the Interior
Hawkins instead of the Secretary
himself.) Passed.
Mr. George frGm the judiciary
committee reported back adversely
the bill to extend the time for claims
for .French Spo.lations. Placed on
the Calendar. '
The conference report on the House
joint resolution for the purchase of
lands for Jocks and, dams in tne Cum
berland riser wai presented and
greed tow
Among- the bills introduced and re
ferred, were the following: ,
By Mr. Allison (by request), for the
establishment of a permanent court
of arbitration! between the United
States and Great Britain and France.
By Mr. Chandler, for the comple
tion of direct t of 1861. (This bill
revives and re enacts those sections
of the act bf 18G1 imposing a
direct tax of twenty millions and
provides for ; the collection of
unpaid balances with 5 per cent inter-1
est thereon, the States to have the
privilege of assuming their quotas
ess 15 per cent deduction. Other
wise 'th6 tax ib to be collected from
the land of individuals as provided
in the original act-)
The bill to authorize the sale to
aliens of certain mineral lauds was
vas taken up for consideration, and
Mr. Faulkner, a member of the com
mittee on mines and mining from
which the bill had been reported.
spoke in opposition to it. He moved
an amendment providing that where
mining c aims which have been pat
ented are acquired by partnership
a majority of the partners and of the
trustees or directors shall be citizens
of the United States. He was op
posed to the bill, however, even with
that amendment attached to it.
Discussion having closed the ques
tion was taken on Mr. Faulkner's
amendment and ' the vote was an
nounced, yeasj 20,, nays 17.
No quorum having voted, the roll was
called and 46 Senators answered to
their names, j Without any farther
vote on the i bill or amendment the
bill was laid aside and unfinished
business was taken up, being a bill
to provide for the admission of the
State of Dakota into the Union and
for the organization of the Territory
of Lincoln.; The substitute a? re
ported from; the committee on Terri
tories to the! original bill establishes
the boundaries of the proposed State
and designates the remaining por
tions of the! present Territory as the
Territory of North Dakota (not Lin
coln) with Bismarck as the capital.
Mr. Piatt, chairman of the commit
tee on Territories, said that the bill
was one of ; four which had been re
ported by the committee on Territo
ries for the; admission of tne southern
part of Dakota under the Constitution
already formed, ine otner tnree bills
were enabling acts for tne 1 em tones
of Washington,! Montana and the
northern portion of Dakota. The
suggestion, he said, had been made
against the use 01 the names of JNortn
Dakota and South Dakota. The con
ditions were such that the name of
Dakota could not be taken away from
either portion of the Territory with
out injustice and without doing vio
lence to the feelings and wishes of,
he believed, every inhabitant in the
Territory, j To ' give some other
name than ! Dakota to a portion
of the Territory would be something
like the authorities of a town going
into a family and insisting on giving
to its members other names than
those they had received from their
parents. It would be as unjust as to
attempt to change the name of North
Carolina or boujth Carolina. The pro
posed State of -South Dakota had 1
population of 400,000 and he thought
that they had a'right to be admitted
as a State in time to participate in the
next Presidential election. 1 he pres
ent territory, Mr. Piatt said, was too
large for One State. It was 40 miles
long from north to south and 400
miles wide from east to west. ' It was
very much larger than England, Ire
land, Scotland and Wales, and (aside
from its ! non commercial qualities)
was capable of sustaining as large a
population. Ice area of those coun
tries amounted to rzz,uvo square
miles; that of) Dakota to 149,000
It was as large practically, as the
States of New York, Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, Maryland and Virginia
combined; as large as all New Eng
land, New York and New Jersey
larger than Ohio, Indiana and Illi
nois combined. The proposed State
of South Dakpta would be 77,000
square miles and that was certainly
large enough: for an agricultural
State. As to the suggestion made at
the last Bession, that cutting up of
the territories into numerous States
would convert the Senate into a mob,
he replied that it was better that the
Senate should Jbe so enlarged as to
represent popular will and to feel
popular pulse than that State should
be admitted so large as to have an
abnomally large representation in the
House of Representatives.
Mr. Butler obtained the floor and
the bill went over till tomorrow.
A message from the President rela
tive to the purchase of lands in
Florida on which to locate the Semi
nole Indians was presented and re
ferred to the committee on Indian
affairs. Executive session. Ad
journed. HOUSE.
A demand for the regular order
from Mr. Reed, of Maine, opened the
sixth days' contest over the direct
tax bill. When tho House met this
morning at 1145 in continuation of
the pession of Wednesday last, the
Speaker stated the regular order to
be a vole upon the motion submitted
by Mr. E. B. Taylor, of Ohio, that
the House go into committee of the
whole upon the direct tax bill. There
upon Mr. Breckinridge, of Arkansas,
and Mr. Weaver, of Iowa, made dila
tory motions and the first roll call of
the calendar day was proceeded with.
Unlil 2 30, the clerk continued to
call the roll upon various dilatory
motions submitted. At that hour
the House found itself without a
quorum and Mr. Weaver moved an
adjournment. Some interest was
shown in this vote as it would devel
op the strength of the opposition to
the measure, and discloeo whether
there was any sign of weakening on
either side of the controversy. The
motion was defeated, yeas 80, nays
150. There being practically no
change in the relative strength a call
of the Houee was then ordered.
Then followed hours of absolute
stagnation of all business of any char
acter. Even the familiar voice of the
reading clerk was silent and ihe House
proceeded with proper diligence to
do nothing.
About 6 o'clock Mr. Oates asked
unanimous consent to have a resolu
tion read for information, but he was
promptly met with objections from
the Republican side. The following
is the text of the resolution :
"Whereas, it is alleged by persons
of veracity that there are a large num
ber of attorneys, lobbyists, claim
agents and State agents who are
covertly Using every means within
their power to secure the passage of
Senate bill 139, which is now
under consideration in this
House; and whereas, it is alleged
that millions of money which
would be appropriated by this bill,
it Bbould become law, will, under
the existing contracts, pass into the
hands of the said lawyers, lobby
ists claim agents and State agents;
therefore,
Resolved, That a committee to con
sist of seen members of the House
be appointed by the speaker, whose
duties it shall be to investigate said
allegations and ascertain and report
to the Houee within 30 days what
contracts or agreements may exist
between any attorneys, lobbyists,
claim agents or State agents and the
penencianes under the aforesaid bill;
and that such a committee have the
power to send for persons and pa
pers and administer oathB; and that
the further consideration of the bill
with its existing status be postponed
until such committee reports.
Subsequently Mr. Wheeler asked
consent to offer a resolution
for the appointment of the committee
to ascertain what amount of the sum
proposed to be paid out will be to
the benefit of the people and how
much is to be paid to the claim agents.
Objection was made. At 7.30 the
sergeant-at-arms appeared and re
ported that of twenty-five members
absent without leave, twenty were
out of the city and the other five
could not be found. He was directed
to continue his search.
At a few minutes before 9 o'clock
further proceedings under call were
dispensed with,and Mr.T. J.Campbell,
of New York, moved as an amend
ment to two, pending motions for a
short recess, that the House take a
recess until 11:45 tomorrow morning,
m order to prevent a vote from being
taken on this proposition. Mr
Breckenridge asked -for revised tac
tics be had resorted to a few days ago
and moved that Mr. Mekenny, of New
Hampshire, be excused from voting.
Mr. Burrows raised the point of
order that it was not competent for
one member to move that another be
excused. Mr. Dibble contended that
the privilege of a member to be ex
cused was defensive in its nature and
could not be in order unless some
process was proceeding against a
member to compel him to
vote, disobedience . to which
would put him in contempt The
Speaker pro tern (Mr. Hatch of Mis
souri) said he had no hesitation on
the point of order which had so
recently been decided by Speaker
Carlisle.
Mr. E. B. Taylor, of Ohio, appealed
from the decision, pending which,
Mr. Breckenridge, of Kentucky,
moved to adjourn.
Mr. Weaver, of Iowa, moved that
when the House adjourned it be to
meet Wednesday next, and Mr. Breck
enridge, of Arkansas, moved that
when it adjourned it be until Thurs
day. The first amusement of
the evening was , afforded by
Mr. Symes of Colorado, who rising
to a parliamentary inquiry, queried
why it was that the time of the House
could be frittered away, but at this
point he was cut short in his question
by shouts of "louder" which continued
for several minutes, every pause
in the uproar being taken advantage
of by Mr. Symes, with his persistent
inquiry, "Why is it that you can frit
ter away the time of the House V"
He was not permitted to conclude his
question in peace, but above the
shouts of laughter and "louder" his
voice was heard to demand, "Why
time should be frittered away in an
attempt to excuse members from
voting when there was no rule of the
Hoube requiring him to do so."
' At 10 15, while dilatory motions
wero piled up, one on another in
great variety, Mr. E. B. Taylor asked
unanimous consent in the interest
of good nature and good health that
the House take a recess until 11.45
tomorrow.
The Speaker pro tern, put the re
quest, and, after a short pause, de
clared it granted, bringing down his
gavel just aa Mr. Breckenridge, cf
Arkansas, sprang to his feet with an
objection, which came one second too
late: Recess was therefore taken.

THE BONDS K0T GIVEN AND THE PRIS
ONERS COMMITTED TO JAIL.
THIT ARI PHYSICALLY BROKEN DOWN AND
BAQOARD BCT IN GOOD 8PIBITS AND
HOPEFTL AS TO THE BESCLT
Of THE TRIAL.
The arrival of the boodlers yester
day tnOrning on the 8 o'clock Raleigh
&. Gaston train from North took most
of the city by: surprise, as it was not
supposed by many that they would
arrive until the afternoon train came
from the west, if they did then, while
many maintained up to the last
minute that they would not believe
they would be brought till they saw
them. ;
It was intimated to a Nkws akd
Observer reporter on Sunday night
that the prisoners would arrive yes
terday morning and later it. was
learned that Chief of Police Heartt
had telegraphed officer Lewellyn here
to have carriages at Uargett street
depot on the arrival of. the tra n this
morning. The arrival of the priso
ners had been kept a profound secret,
only a few being apprised of it, and
there were consequently veryjfew per
sons at the train when it pulled up
at Hargett street. Mr. White was
the first to step off the cars and as
he was going from the cars to the car
riage shook hands with several gen
tlemen who were standing by.
Mr. White jwas in custody of Capt.
fleartt, and Deputy Rogers followed
with Mr. Cross. Mr. Graves was also
with the party, but Mr. Husbee, who
went by wayjof New York and Wash
ington, did not return with the
others. They left him at Toronto
and be expected to leave there Satur
day for New York where he would
stop long enough to arrange some
matters with the Park Bank and
thence he was to go to Washington
where he will also stop to consult
with the Conjptroller of the Currency.
THE NEWS OF THE ARRIVAL
spread like ' wild-fire and soon the
streets were literally alive and teem
ing with people. The carriage con
taining the prisoners ,and officers was
rapidly driven up into the city, fol
lowed by hundreds of people. The
news spread and the crowd grew
more densei and during the short
space of time required for driving the
carriage from the depot to the jail
the whole city had : become aware of
the arrival of the prisoners and had
poured forth en masse. The prisoners
were i
COMMITTED TO JAIL,
being placed in the front room up
stairs sometimes used by the sheriff,
and affording very comfortable quar
ters, j
During the morning the prisoners
were visited by several personal
friends. Mr. White said that they
would have nothing to say until
placed upon the witness stand. Both
men presented a most worn, dejected
and haggard appearance, and Mr.
White especially appeared much re
duced and broken. :
Capt Heartt says the prisoners
showed no disposition during the
journey homeward to be troublesome
in any wayj, but were perfectly sub
missive, and he found it entirely un
necessary to hand-cuff or secure them
in any way. He says they seemed
eager to come home from the first.
While in j custody in Toronto
the prisoners were subjeced to very
nam treatment, being connned in
company with a rough class of pris
oners, j
Mr. Whl e was Baid to have re
marked yesterday morning soon after
he had arrived that after all the vicis
situdes thrbugh which he had been
he had nob lost all his religion.
Capt. Heartt in a conversation wiih
our reporter said that he was of the
opinion that if the prisoners had not
E greed to 4ome with him voluntarily
e had serious doubts as to whether
the attempt to extradite them would
have proved successful, as the Cana
dian authorities would have fought
such attempt to the last,and he thinks
it would have taken several weeks to
get possession of the prisoners, if it
had been done at all.
A new phase seems to have devel
oped now in conneo.ion with the
charges of forgery against the pris
oners which seems to make their con
viction for these offences somewhat
doubtful, j It will be remembered
that the charges for which the extra
dition papers were issued were the
three forgery indictments broucht in
by the grajnd jury on the day on
which ourj ofiicers left the city for
Toronto, and which are named in the
agreement; of trial below. It is sta
ted that Messrs. White and Cross
now claim; that these forgeries are
NOT BONA FIDE FORGERIES,
that the gorged notes were simply
placed amjoDg the assets of the bank
to make the condition of the bank
appear sound and that no money was
obtained on them. They seem confi
dent of being acquitted on these
grounds. 1
While there are other forgeries on
which they did obtain money, they
are not included among the charges
forwhich .hey are to be tried. In fact
the matter seems to be in a shape
which seem to afford the boodlers a
very fair chance of escaping any
penalty a all. If the forgery charges
are not established they will be re
leased and allowed to return to
Canada if they choose as they cannot
be tried, for embezzlement.
In view pf the arrival of the prisoners
Judge Shipp and Solicitor Argo held
a consultation Sunday night and it
was decided to fix the bond of each
at $15,000.
Immediately after their arrival
yesterday morning it was reported that
the bonds of both had been made up,
but the statement proved to be a
mere rumor. Several friends of Mr.
White, however, expressed a willing
ness to go on his bond, and it is
stated that he refused to accept it
unless Mr. Cross could find bonds
men also. It is possible that the
bond of both may yet be given, but
up tojthe present nothing definite has
been done.
It is remarkable what a revulsion
of sentiment seems to have taken
place in the public mind. Countless
expressions of sympathy for the pris
oners were heard on all sides yes
terday and numbers were heard to
express a willingness to be among
the bondsmen.
Capt. Heartt says the police officers
ot Toronto were very gentlemanly
and cle ver and sbowed every courtesy
to our visitors.
The money was expressed on Sat
urday to New York, where it will be
kept on deposit at the Park Bank till
its disposal is decided on.
It is said that friends of Mr.
Cross in Gates county will probably
go on h s bond.
THE AGREEMENT.
The following is a copy of the
agreement between White and Cross
amL, Mr. Busbee :
In the Mattkr of thk
Extradition of
Cha.s E. Cross and S. C. White.
Representing the State cf North
Carolina in the matter of the indict

laws, without any proceeding under
the extradition act and the treaty,
and shall, as far as they mav beable,
aid in the delivery to the present re

H. Busbee, the money brought by said
Cross and White to Canada,
and shall return with the said Heartt
and posse to the State of North Car

Among those most prominently
mentioned for Associate Justices of
the Supreme Court we know of no
oue wno would pear ine nonor more
worthily or reflect more credit on the
State than Thomas N. Hill, of Hali
fax. His pre-eminent legtl talent and
attainments, his modest and retiring
disposition and dignified bearing pe
culiarly quauiy nun ior tne position.
x or twenty-nve years ne has been
close student of law and a successful
practitioner, and has always been
staunch supporter of the party. In
consideration of his superior qualifi
canons ana tne iact tnat ne comes
from a section of the State that has
received but httlo recognition at the
bands of the Democracy, we are of
the opinion that the party could not
reflect more honor and credit on it
self than by elevating such a man to
the Supreme Bench.

brilliant campaign forever blazing
with those gorgeous fires of enthusi

from the well-fueled furnace of his
