To tlie Editors oj Me Wutchmnn i 1 It is a theme of almost uniyprs&l com menjt by the people and the .ress, irrespec tive of party, that the Democratic leaders are displaying more foresight, wisdom an,(I sagacity in the selection of candid at esi this year than ever Ijefarp ; and this fa'cf; glonc is beginning to satisfy the masses of ffie peo ple throughout the Union, that the Demo cratic party, if it can hold together, is bound to le triumphant-at the polls in November.

WjtEHEASj The republican party of tbe United States, for the last sixteen years, has had the complete control of too government iin alt its aepanments, and by its niaregard of Constitutional Ittp tations ; by Us anrqjnal and oppreeaive taxation: by ks extravagant and waste fol eipenditntes j by its Unwise arid mis chievous financial policy : by Us nnexam pled 'official corruption pervading all branches of its admintstratioohas bjfOQght difgracp npon oqr government and unparalleled dUtreeg upon our peuple; therefore ; i ' j r Jlesolved. 1.

That we earnestly an door : dlally recommend the adoption, by tbe ! people,' of the amendments to the ponsti ; tution proposed by the Qouveptian of 1875, and thus largely reduce tbn jexpenditores i of our State and enqnty governments and simplify their administration, so that we may be enabled to establish a thorough find enlarged system of public scbpolg for the benefit of all the citizens of the State. JZesatved, 3. That notwithstanding our repeated disappointments and impovished condition we still cherish the North ar. present Presidential contest. - The sub mission which the Southern democracy has made and is making, proceeds not so much from a mean spirit on their part as from a due regard to the disasterous con sequences of provoking the unjust and fanatical prejudices of the masses in the Jfortherq States. We all know how easy it is to excite those prejudices, and how inevitably the subjects are led to re sist and oppose everything that would enqre to-the "-advantage of the South. There is probably no surer way to per petnate radical rule than to practice the uf gestions of the Times. No one dis putes that it isa virtual surrender of rights o yield as we are doing ; but if that re linquishment will purchase for ns a great good otherwise impossible, the question seems to us as reduced to one of mere policy.

The priest in charge of the Catholic church in Charlotte "fuller IIands,' having concluded to break over the laws of the denomination in respect to marry- ng, eloped with Miss Cora BRADSHAWji a few days ago, passing this place, up the Western road to Ienoir. There he ap plied for license to marry j but the Register of Deeds was absent, and the discomfort ed party went on towards Watauga and Tennessee. This is rpgarded as a great scandal by the membership and high officials of the .Catholic church, and we learn, from the Charlotte Observer, necessitatt-s the rei dedication of the church in which ''father Hand," officiated at the lime of his in fidelity. No doubt it was his duty to have handed iin his credentials before "stepping down and out," and his failure to do so subjects him to the imputation of motives highly offensive as teeards the vows taken upon entering the priesthood.

William Mi. Ilobbins ? Four years ago the Republican party suc ceeded irt the elections, not so much on ac count of the strength of their own candi dates as of the weakness and unpopularity of the Democratic hnmtnecs. As soon as the Baltimore Convention surrendered to Qreeteyittm the Democratic hosts became ut terly demoralized and an ignominious defeat was inevitable. Tlje nomination of Greeley was a repetition only on a grander scale, of the same blunder which, in 1868, placed on the National Dem ocratic ticket a most unfortunate candidate for the Vice Presidency upon an exceedingly Objectionable platform. So far, this year, hc Democracy seem to bave committecd no Mistakes whatever, either in the nomination -of candidates or in the adoption of Platforms. One of the best campaign documents I have ever read is the National Democratic Platform adopt ed by the St. Louis Convention; and the Platform of the Democratic party of this State, though exceedinglv short, has the same ring to it. The watchwords in both arc-r-" Honest men for office " Kconomv in the administration of Public Affairs ; 'Retrenchment and Reform.'' In view of the foregoing facts, the outlook for a complete Democratic victory this Fall seems to be exceedingly bright and promis ing. All that is now necessary to insure an overwhelming triumph in North Carolina is for our party leaders to take care that no mistakes shall be committed in making nom- inations for the Legislature, and for Count' offices. The best party oivanizstioil in the world will not wrtfice of itself to insure a victory, if tlie nominees of the Party, have not the confidence, and do not represent the wishes, or the people. i Tins is no time lor discord and dissension, for political rivalry and wrangling, and for personal jealousies. Ihe man must stand aside, when he is in the way of the success Of the principles, which he himself profess es to advocate. We cannot afford to carry deadweight during this campaign. As far as I can see, the people seem to be disposed generally to attend the Nominating Conven tions and to put forward as candidates those who will add strength, and not be a source of weakness to our ticket. A party conven tion is always jyopular, and justly so, when flic choice of the convention is the undoubt ed expression of the will of the people. And there is really never necessity for a conven tion to nominate any one as a candidate who is distasteful to the people. ! With a good Legislative and Countv tick et, old Rowan mav be set down for Tilden and Vance and all our nominees, bv a very large majority.. Who the nominees shall be for the Legislature and the various County offices, muet be left to the good sense of the people themselves. And if the nominations, when made, shall really reflect the wishes of the people, the ticket will be invincible. It will 1e utter folly and sheer madness to nominate for any position a man who will not be acceptable to the great body ot thej vutcio ti uic VUuui. jjc-Oic jiuimi iiinii forward in these times for any office of hon or or trust, the following questions ought to beasked alx.ut him, and answered favorably: V he livnext ? Is he eapahle f In he aruilahls f If he is honest and capable, but not available, he should not be nominated. If he is honest and available but not capable. hcshouldnot be nominated. If he is capable and availa ble bnt not holiest, he should not by any means le nominated. There are numbers of men everywhere, who are honest and ca pable, as well as available ; and no good reason can be given why any other sort should ever be nominated. For the first time since the close of the late unhappy war between the States, a Na tional Democratic ticket has been chosen, which all good Democrats, and all liberal and conservative men, south ns well as north, can support with genuine sincerity and cor diality, and with good hope of success. Our leaders and our people already begin to teel " TERRIBLE BATTLE- WITH r -;: f lNpiA38,r-' Qcn.

The issues involved in the present political campaign were quite as great, he thought, as those involved in the struggle for'American Liberty. The first Revolution was the result of an appeal to arms. The second Revolution will be the re sult of an appeal to the judgment and rea son of the American people as expressed at the ballot box. There are hundreds of thou sands of Republicans who expect to vote with the Democratic party at the next clexv tion, because they are tired and disgusted with the corruption and misgovermnent of the party in power. These men &re bxnest and sincere, although they have heretofore acted from mistaken motives with the Re publican party, and they ought to be en couraged to cast in their lot with us, and to aid, us in the great work now before the peo ple of redeeming the country from its pre sent condition of degradation and ruin. To these men we ought to extend the olive branch of reconciliation and peace. This class of voters can bo won over to our side by vvqrds, of cqnciliation and kindness they cannot be won qver by words of villification and abuse.

Cueter Was surrounded, on every side by the Indians, and men, and horses fell as they fought on the skirmish line or in line of battle. , Custer was among the last who fell, but when his cheering voice was no longer heard, the Indians made easy work of lhe remainder.
