In; was not with the Confederacy, hut

When; the. war closed it was natural
that those who were considered "Union
men " should become prominent for pi
sitioiis in the work of reconstruction,
and IheUnited States Government would
lir.-t appoint them to aid rehabilitation,
and it was equally reasonable that such
men would not decline otliee, even seek
it. Nothing less could be expected.
AHhouj'h we are not a special admirer
of (iov. Caldwell, we can do an opponent
justice, and in our opinion tbe people of
the rotate will find in Gov. Caldwell a
fair-minded, enicient, and dignified' Ex-ecutive-7-one
ivho will administer the
laws without tear, favor, or partiality
to any. . ..
Gov. Caldwell.
We learn that Gov. Caldwell sus-
taina himself ..before the .oeQDle .to
their admiration wherever'ne address-
es the multitudes that assemble, to
hear him. He is cool, collected, able,
and demolishes the cobwebs of his
opponents, and refutes the slandering
charges that have been made by par
tizaus against him, scattering them
like chatf before the wind. His sul-
1ect3 arc wdi studied, his facts forci
hW st:lt0(, an(1 his reasoninr i0riCai
... ' . .
and convincing. In this he is backed
by his unimpeachable character and
a well known honest heart, with an
invincible purpose to stand by the
people in any emergency. Tod It.
Caldwell has a record in his official
position that will stand the test of
time, and place him in the catalogue
of one of the wisest and best Gover
nors North Carolina ever Ii'n'd. As he
was made Chief Magistrate bv a
Icn3ocratic-ConservativeLegislature,
SQ Iet tue people decide to continue
him in the samc position next Au-

The people are not so lost to decency,
as the At ics might suppose, that they
will prefer a notorious demagogue and
canting hypocrite, who has " stolen
the livery of Heaven in which to
serve the devil," to a gentleman like
Mr' Furchesr "Pon whose garments
rests not a stain, and whose lips are
unused, as his heart is incapable to
conceive, low and vulgar language re-
ferring to subjects that disgust even
the depraved of the race. It but
proves the moral nature of the man,
and is collateral to antecedents of the
past, of which the people have heard,
not necessary here to name. When !
the canvass opened between these two
persons we knew the ground which
both occupied, and that Mr. Furches
would desire to conduct the canvass
in an honorable way we also knew
and he will be loth to be driven from
his position. But Bobbins must not j
expect, hereafter, to be treated in an j
other manner than according to his
deserts by his opponent and the press.

charging that Col. Dockery. a long
time ago, should have said, (perhaps
it is false,) that if the negroes were
allowed to vote he would leave the
State. Well, even i f Col. Dockery
said so, he has since changed his mind,
as any man has a right to do, and for
a good reason that the negroes are
not only capable of voting, but of
holding office, too.
Now, let us state w hat tec heard
Mr. Thos. S. Ashe say of the negroes
at the Court-house in Statesville.
Mr. Ashe said that the negroes were
an inferior race, savages in Africa,
and little more here ; that they ought
not to vote or hold office, and that
they ought either to be sent ou of
the country d riven off or be held
in subjection as via vex to the white
race. Let the eolored people decide
which has the best record.

that he had "fought the Government

and regretted that he could not have
fought it forty yearn longer.'''' Maj.
Rob"bins was a secessionist, and 'aided
to bring on the war, and his voice is
still for war a war of forty years
duration ! We ask the people if a
man uttering such sentiments would
make a proper member of Congress ?
What influence for good would he
have in that body ? Do the people

they bestow ujon him a high and re-

when Hamilton C. Jones, Senator
from Mecklenburg, and chairman of 4
the Senate Jud ieiarv Committee, save
him the signs of the Invisible Lm- V
pi re. 1
From the same source we learn that ;
F. X. Strudwiek, a member of the
House, was, on a-certain occasioii.on -
his way to assassinate Senator Shoif
ner, who fled the State to save his life, :,
having become obnoxious to the
Klan Decause he was the autlior ami ;
successful advocate of the stringent j
military bill, by virtue of which Gov. :
Ilohlen attempted to put down the i
Ku Klux conspiracy.
Corroborative evidenve that Jones
was a member may be found in the
testimony of Plato Durham before
the same committee. 'According' to
h s testimony,we also learn that Mr. ,
jlcAfee, a member of the House, was
the Chief of the KJan in Cleavcland
county. In the Beelj Telegram,
June 24, 1871, it is atateil that the j
grand jury of Cleavcland county
nominated this Col. L. M. McAfee as
a candidate for the Convention. This
fact is sianificanL If all the facts
COuld be brought to light the public
would doubtless be surprised to learn

In closing this item in our bill of

to quote an extract from a x ecli of
one of the mo-t distinguUh.-d jurist
and statesman of thiicuntrc!ios n
and paid by the Ku Klux of Sonih
Carolina to defend them in their re
cent 'trial 4 in that State. Ourextnu t
is taken from the AVir YorL TriKii,i",
whose editor, Mr. Gre -ley, in just now
in such high favor with the LUkt.iI
Republicans and Democrats. Mr.
Hcverdy Johnson, the distingui-hed
counsel referred to, in rising to de
fend his clients, said
"I have li-tcned with horror-to
some of the testimony that has Uin
brought Infore you. The outrages
proved have I Ma n shocking to human
ity ; thej- admit neither of justifica
tion nor excuse ; they violate every
obligation which laws and nature im
pose ujkii men. These men apjenr
to have been cuke -inseu-ibie to .the
obligations of lniman.it v and religion ;
but the day
y will come, howercr. if it
has not already arrived, when they
will deeply lament it. Krcn if jus
tice should not overtake them, there
is another tribunal from which there
in no escape. It is there own cvn-
lscitnce that tribujial which in
stiii sinaii fOK-e tuaC tunus torouga
the heart, and as it peaka gives hai-
piness or torture the Toice of con
science the voice of God. And if !
- '
it has not alrea.lv spoken to them, in I
tones w hich have wakcl them up to i
th.. ..n,,rn,i)r of f b..ir conduct . I tni,t i
in the mcrcv of h.-aven that n voice
will siak "cfore thev shall. be callcil
to the drea l tribunal" to account f r
their transactions in thii world."
tuuu are me won is 01 one wur,
office it was to excuMf aud paliate, if,
possible, the conduct of his clients. '
and who - would gladly have denied j
the charges agairiit .the in Could he '
pos-ibly have done so. Coming from ,
such a source, and under such cir-'
cunist-intes, tue)- wu'aer witii the ;
blight of eternal mildews the horrid ;
