W 11 MITCHELL, A J P HARRIS, JOSUIL PERRY, W D COPPEDGB D S LLEN. Til d MAS T. MITCHELL, ESQ. The nomination of this gentleman by Kir convention on Saturday last, ' was .ne in everyway fitting to be made- Mr. Mitchell is a young man of fine promise, who hn within a short time past, commenced the practice of the law in thw county, la the campaign two years ago at one or two places in the county the ltads wcro made sensible of tho stuff that he is made of. Mr. M. is a fine ppc.-nrrraiul a ready debater, and we predict that he will conduct the ap proaching caiivars in every way so as to make it tell for the best for our tick et. . Let us all hold un his hands and sustain him, as well as the whole ticket. by every exertion iu our power to se cure a brilliant triumph over our ene mies in August next, franklin must lc redeemed. )emocrats, Conserva tives, Anti Kadieala, Let us ajl put on the harness, and work together this once, and success is certain. Col. David Scbeuk, of Lincoln has been nomintted by the Democ ats for Judge of the 9th Judicial District to succeed Logan, who was elected as a noisy Republican, aud who is now run ning as an independent, candidate. And of whom the Piedmont Press said, that he would he elected by a small majority, provided nobody ran against him.'' ol, b'chenk will no doubt consign hun to that obscuriiy, to inch bis merits so mincntlv enti tie him. Mr. Montgomery, of Carba rns, has been nominated for Solicitor of the samo District. Good men. In deed far a our party ha crone thev seem to Lave bean eminently fortunate in their selection of undertaker? for the Radical party. Let the good work go bravely on. J rot out your best, all over the State, Dcmociats. Our op ponents are looking on with amaze ment and horror. They will soon be hiding themselves from the terrible . calamity that awaits them. In tho second lungreasioiurf .'Dis. trict the Radicals have nominated JohiA, Hyman. a Warren uegro to represent uiem in the Congress of the United states., Theyhave some 8000 majority in this district, and H-man .. will be elected by an immense maior- ty, ai.d be the firtt negro member of Longrcss from the old liorUi State. We notice that Mabson has declared himself a candidate in tLe v ilunnj;. ton district. U will no doubt bp made to succumb to some white man, who Col. AVaddell will demoli.-h in. August. The negroes are clearly en titled to some of the good places in the gift of the Uadu-al partj, for if it was not lor the m the laJg could not carry h half dozen counties in the State. They are asserting their rights, and we think that they are fully as much, and njoie entitled than the whit men who have been enjoying the fat of the land and rolling in luxury by means of the negro vote. 'We copy the following letter, writ ten to the , Daily Xevcs, urging the claims of our countyman, Opt. J. J. Davis for Cpngresa. It speaks our feelings in the case so exactly ,and states the facts so plainly and forcibly, that we can add nothing, so publish tlie letter .in full : Capt. .Xoisepli J. laris. Editors Nkvs: The Democratic Convention for the county of Frank lin met in Louisbung on Saturday last, and appointed delegates to the several District Nominating Conventions, The delegates to the Congressional Convenfion .were instructed to vote first, mid3t and last for Capt. Joseph J. Davis as our candidate for Congress from tins. ' .District. Fruiklin will insist on the nomination of Captl ; Davis for several . reasons. The first and paramount one of which, is on the ground of right. She is entitled to the' nomination if she presents a man who is possessed ef all the attributes of a Congressman of the better dayi of the Republic in an equal degree with those whose claim are urged by "other coun ties, She claims that Capt. 1). in character and ability, is the peer of any man whose name has been men tioned in connection with the nomina tion. This, being fo, she insists that she is, in all fairness, entitled to the nomination. She never has had a a member of Congress, and not a can didate in more than thirty years, if we except Frad Hawkins, .who the lladi cals nominated to fill the unexpired term of Deweese. The other counties ' 'i T" in the district have all, within the last "ll-c" . uau representatives in Congress. Within that tirno Chatham has had Mr. Manning. Johnston has had Dr. Leach, Wake has had Gen. Branch and ( ol. Rogers, Granville has had Mr. Yenable and Judse Gilliam, Nash has h a d Mr. Arrington, and Orange has had Mr. Tnnicr. These '.a en were all good and true, and fitting in cveri particular to represent in Congress the enlightened and intel ligent citizens of the metropolitan dis trict of North Carolina. This being the case, other localities having6 been favored, Franklin ' now claims that it is her "turn. She claims that the gentleman whose name she presents is in every way the equal of the gifted and honorable gentlemen who have heretofore represented this District in CongTcss ; and this be'in so, she insists that Captain Davis shah receive tne nomination for Congress, She believes' th..t! he is as strong as any man in the District. . She has al ways done ber very - best. - Since the adoption of the 1 reconstruction acts by Congress the Democrats in Franklin have bad to fight against great odds, having a very decided negro majority of registered voters to contend against. Notwithstanding- nil this, however, they, have in all the elections (except for Greeley) polled a larger number of Democratie votes than we bad regis tered white voters in the county. l':No county in the District or the State has doue as well as this, and we claim to be the banner county in the State it this particular. Franklin has never been profuse in promises, nor doe? she propose to be so now or in the future, and she has been kackward in claim inga recognition of ber . rights when ever favors were to be conferred. ; Bat she thinks tho time has come that she should have her claims for the prefer ment of one her , sons recognized. If Capt. Davii i the nominee of the Con vention, wo foci safe in pledging for him 10 more votes in this county than we can get fcr any man outside cf the couiity. Xet the claims of our county U recognized, and she will go to work with renewed courage and zeal to place Xapr. Datis in the nxt Congress of the United States It is not the intention of the writer of the foregoing to detract from the merits of the many other worthy and patriotic gntleintii, whose names have been naeutioncdin connection with the nomination, any one of whom would reflect honor on the District and State, had they a cat in Congress. ButeJ Spirit of the JOitriot We publixb below the comments of the'Prcss in tliLs Senatorial District, on the candidates nominated Ht '-Nashville ; and take irreat pleasure in endorsing most heartily all that has been said ,f thom, by our contemjoraries. The Rocky Mount Mail says : Charles M. Cooke. ThU sterling gentleman, nominated by the people of his -own county, of Franklin, and endorsed by the delegates of Wilson and Nash, Ls one of the Dem ocratic candidates for. a seat in the Sen ate from this, the Seventb District. Capt. Cooke does not come before the people of Nash county as a stranger j on the contrary he is well known, strong ly identified with our people, and ja a most suitable person to represent us in the Senate. His record is good; as a gallan soldier he fought manfully in the defence of his country. As an honest man he has, since the cruel conflict, ad vocated aud upheld the principles of the ConservatiAQ Democratic party, and fought iu every campaign the black, corrupt and infamous party which sought only to degrade, oppress and de spoil the South. Besides, this, Capt. Cooke is a man of intellectual ability.--He poosaesses the povcr of doing effect ive service AFTER his election, and his past record is a guarantee that he will use his power and ability in OUR cause, and for our advancement, prosper ity and happiness. The people can trust him, and they are indeed fortunate in securing such an able, honest and sterling standard-bearer. v r I The following is from the Wilson Advance: 1 ; I ' 1 ! Our Candidates. 1 We hoist at our mast head to-day the names of Nicholas W. Uoddie, of Nash, and Charles M. Cooke, of Frank lin, the Djmccratic candidates for the Senate from this District- They are. both gentlemen of high character, pop ularity and undoubted patriotism. Mr. Boddie is an intelligent farmer and lighly esteemed by all who know him. He has never held office and was called from his farm his year by the unanimous voice of his fellow citi zens. He has alwaj s borne an exalt ed reputation for purity of character and honesty iu all his dealings. No better selection could have been made. Mr, Cooke, our other candidate, is one of the rising young men of the State. In Franklin county, where he was raisod and where he is best known he is highly esteemed and possessed of great popularity. He is a Sue speaker, and a true and tried Conservative. With such candidates, the Conserva tives of this District cannot fail of snc, cea. Every intelligent and true white man in Franklin Nash and Wilson hould rejoica in the 'election of such -men. " : ' : : ; '' Fellow-citizens, contrast for one mo ment the character of the Radical can didates Sharp and Stanton, with 3,000 negro voters to back them, with Nicho las W. Boddie ' and ifJharles M. Cooke. Ask yourselves in whose hands' the interest of these counties and the State should be entrusted, T And then, can any good man go to the polls and cast his vote deliberately and conscientious ly for Sharp and Stanton, thV .Radical candidates, in preference to Boddie and Cooke, who are relying on the white mon of this- District to sustain them. We have no: heard from these white,,, Radical .candidates since tl nomination of liyman, ; the negro for Congress by their party. We presume they will support Hyman with all his negro social eq ality principles, and if they do. instead of the support of white men , thoy: diouU and will no doubt receive the execration of all good men, in ail parts of the District. - The Wilson Plaindealer says : ' ' 7th Senatorial District. ' By reference to proceedings' of Con vention at Nasuville it will bo seen that N. W. Boddie of Yash, and C. M. ( ooke. of Franklin, hav been nominated by the Democratic Conser vative Convention for Senators from the Senatorial District to the State Legislature. These : nominatiorVare believed to be excellent, as good as could have been made, and we must elect thess gentlemen' whose names we to day place at the bead of our col urans.

Gazette. Capt. .X. T- Iuvijs F ankliu county purges the naaie of this sterling gentleman, and able pat riot, for Conjresi from tho 4th (Raleigh) district. With great dofercuce to the other gentlemen whosa names have been mentioned, we think Capt. C.is eminently entitled. to the nomination. Since the war Mr. Turnr of Orange has been supported by the party ind elected ; t hen followed othor nom iuees Measis. W illiama . of Ni.h. Gil liam of Granville, Manning of Chat ham, ftegcis of Wake, (twite). On two occasions was Capt. D. nominated in Convention by acclamation, but withdrew in deference other sections and gentlemen, and en both occasions were our party nominees elected, thus giving away the position twice when he was certain of being elected if he had run. As Franklin has never bad it, and after the unseffish and patrio tic conduct of her favorite son on sev eral occasions, we earnestly think, as an act of graceful courtesy, yea, even as a right due the county and that gentleman, we think the convention should give him the nomination. We hope to see him occupy even higher position in our country's service, for one mor suited for such iu every re spect will not be found. We again hope he may be nominated, and trium phantly elected.-A'. C, Citizen. AD VRETISE MENTS. 1874 Spring Trade 1874. I My stock of goods is now very com pletfr.
