THE BINGHAM ttCi.OOL.
North Carolina hai unuy thingi to be
proud of. Within its burders can be
found every variety of climate, tnd their
several product, but there it one iosti.
tution which has growi up in cur midst
which has in )ears past been at useful as
nil utlters and which we hope will fltur.
ish yet many years to ihcd continued
bencf U upon the ) ounjj nx of the State.
We allude to tho school whose came
liendi this art tie.
This School was established in 1793.
m re than 80 years sg", by tbe Rev.
Wra Bingham, grandfather of the pres
ent proprietor!, who taught first at W i 1 -miugtoo,
then at I'iltsboro', in Chatham
county, and then at IIillbim,' and af
terwards, till his death iu 18!j, at "Mt.
ll-posp," in Orange county. The late
Win. J. Hingliau tonic charge of tbe
school at his fathei's death, and shortly
afierward removed it to IMlsboro', where
he taught until 1 4-4 Heinj unwilling
to educate bis own sons in a towo, be
removed to Oik, twelve miles south,
west of II illssiro,' where he continued
to teach until 1863. his shim William
and Robert, being associated with him
after 1627, aad his nephew, Win. B
Lynch, after 18T,2. It being difficult
during the war to get supplies sa far from
the Riilroad, in tbe bands of the late
C l. Win. Binglnm, the school wis again
removed, during the winter of 1861 'C5,
1 1 its present location, three-quarters i
ii nine from .Mcuoneville, a station on
the X C. R R . 50 milet west of RaU
eigh, 30 miles east of Greensboro .'
Such in brief is the early history of
the liinghara School, and such a history
is in itself u 111 ient to show that by its
merits it has planted itself firmly in the
affections of the people. The resent
status of the school can best be inferred
from the f lloaing facts, that the num
btr of pupils is greater than at any school
1 1 the S mth of like character, that it
c inimaBds s unewhat larger tuition fen
than any school of like character, that
pupils who have finished tbe c iurse at
this school with distinction are sought a
teichers all over the country and com
nund salaries much larger than the aver
age and that the Bingham School draws itl
pupils from an area of country compris
ing Virginia, on the north and Texas on
the S m'.b. These facts, and they are
fact, are sutlicient to recommend this
strictly North Carolina Institution to
parents and with them we leave lb
matter.
THE POLITIC AL hTATlS.
The Raleigh O'ae.-trr has reeently
printed an interview with Gcneii
Clingnan, a man who bas iu former
days oecuj ia I no inteasricu ni p t' on
in the oouaci's of the iVo ecralic paity.
Tuis interview we reproduce partly, for
the reason, that we are of opinio that
t!ie people ha.e a right to bae the
words of men whom they have honored
by their coofijence, given them for their
consideration, but mainly fur tbe sake of
the curious bits of political history it
contains. We aoote from the Oj
server :
"General, in view nf the struggle that
is going oo the State, which seems like
ly to distract the minds or the people iu
f latino to the coming ."senatorial elee
liin, I would like to have your candid
opinioa od the outlook generally, ,,d
"T suggestions ym may be willin to
olftr.
lm r flection, replied General
('li'igmsn. I can see no good reason why
I fhould not gie you. my opiui, on
the general questions involved I do
net desire to be understood as intending
loia'ae part in any coolest between
individuals, nor help to hurt any as
pirant. We all understand that the Constitu
tion gives the right to choose Senators,
to the Legislatures of the State., ind nut
to the popular v.de. In accordance
with this well-settled principle, it bas
heretofore been the custom iu this State
for the people to choose the best mem
bers of the Legislature that they could
aelrct, and then allow them like an im
partial jury to cIioom such geutlemea as
they regarded at most able to represent
the State in the Seuatt of tbe United
States.
There fysms now to be a labored ef
fort to change this system tod get out
candidates 'edged to vote for narticn.
Ur individuals. I regard this praitice
as objectionable on mors than one
ground. In a party poiut of view it is
objectionable because it tenda to emu
divisions. If candidate ba pledeed to
i ..i ir.r.' j j , . . .
n. au u iceuus may decline to gift
cordial supiort to a mm who Intends to
ceieu meir lavorite.
F.ven a mora serious objection sug.
gests itself ia this, that such a custom
if introduced, teods to g as adrsa
tage to the least worthy aspirants. A
high toned, honorable man would scorn
to resort to such strategems In secure
this elevatiou. Such iormer Senators
as Mangum, Graham, Badger, B igg
od others that might be tamed would
no more ba thooght r resorting to
such movements than they would of at
tempting to induce a SherifT tu pick nut
such jurors as would promise to fl id a
verdict in their favur. In my opiuion
the members of the Legislature when
they choose a Senator should be aa free
to select tbe best man as a jury which
is required ti be impartial when it is
impannelled to try a rase.
Q. Do yon think a man's being an in
euuibeut in the office ought to give him
so advantage?
A. Not in the least; and such has net
been the view in this State. Gof . R-id,
for example, was superseded by Gov.
Fiaee. ol the same parry. Though in
1858 I waa nomii sited by acclamation,
yet in I860 several prominent men en
tertd the lists against roe in the canvass,
ft has alaets been understood that the
incumbent took his chances like any
one else, and waa merely to be re
elected if he was thought to be the best
man for the position.
Q What do you think of the point
used that because a man was the cau
cua nominee and had been defeated he
ought tu have the prefereuce over
others?
A N weight whatever has hereto,
fore been attached to such a considera
tion in this State. In 1842 Bedford
B ovn was the nominee of the Demo
cratic caucus, yer. JuJge S Hinders op.
posed hiin, and nfter a struncle which
luted nunv weeks, drove hi.0 from the
track, a-d Win (I. II j) wood was
elected, lanugo Mr. Brown bad thus
been beaten, and was in a candidate
against roe in 18C0, yet the parly de
clined to elect him.
In 1852 a ttill more remarkable case
occurred. Mr. Dobbin was the nnmi
nee of the party and jet Jurlee Saun
ders and Col. R G. A L e voted
against him for months, be sometimes
coming within a vote or two of an elec
tion. Mr. uobDiii was finally withdrawn
ana i waa put in nomination. I came
near being elected, and it became ci.
dent that if another ballot could be had
I would have been chosen. Thereupon,
as the day for adjournment bad been
fixed and was near, my pilitica) oppo.
nents threatened to fillibuster till the
end of the session. They thus pre
vented an election.
At that session Mr, Dobbin was thus
dtfeated and I wa, by the adjiurnmeot,
left as the regular nominee of the party,
ard jet when the next Legislature as
sembled they passed over both Mr.
Dobbin and myself and elected Raid
and Biggs.
Qiestion. Bit suppose that s man
was really elected and kept out of his
seat by political enemies, would rot
this give him a claim to another election?
A. Not at all; in fact tbe question
nas more man once been settled the
other way in this State. Gov. Graham
was elected and received the e tiro vote
of the legislature except thirteen mem.
bers onto. II went to Washi nte.n a..H
was relosed the sea', and yet in 187(
though ureed as a candidate, he was
uot elected. 0 I that occasion it ia !!
known that St-iiators Merrimnn and
Ransom and Gov. Vance were all nr.
ent and not only did not recognire Gov.
Graham's claim, bat were cat.didwtei
themselves.
Acain in 1872 neither the
Gov. Graham nor Judge Moly, who
bad both been elected and refold their
seits, were recognized by Ibe Legisla
ture,
I now recall the fact that fl, Tti-.-
and I in 1861 both left tha Sent
account of tbe war. Gov U Off ft riarl

while cot the
four years of my tern in tbe Confeder-
aie army. Aiwr the war bad ended
it was not proposed to pive us an n.
portunity lo ill out oue terns io the
Senate.
The rule heretafor e acted m m tkt.
&ate has ween for tbe Legislature to
select those whose talents and public
spirit seemed likelv to render
ablest Senators.
As county cone.it'rons and meetings
are oflo controlled bv a Um m,if..
managers, they seldom rtffett the views
of the irrnj .rity of the people. I fact
tliey very freauenllv are mOr,,,..i.i :
bunging forward men who could not ob-
lain position nn thert own merits. When
we see a man carried alon the airx.i.
on a stretcher, we know that man is

a msn nf merit would rather be elected
as the free choice of bis fellow-citixeos
than be toted into office.
If legislation of late has fir-it KssflM asal

praetor which f-ld-ra fc.-ir.ss f.sJ
the best men. Thnu.h I ... j
to bosh branches of our Legislature, and
for fourteenyeara to Congress. I waa
never nominated for any one of those
places.
When hi the Senate of th S ate ;n
1840. on the mvitatina of tbe legislative
caucus, the Hon. Willie P. Mangum, the
"n. ii m. a. uraham, tbe II n. Iwis
Williams and the Hon. Wm. B. Shdp
ard. all addressed us on the political
issue oi me aay. Alter hearing them
we adiouraed for several dan anri then
met and made our selections. Had we
been pledged to any candidate, their
speaking to us would have been as
Tarcical as would be for a party to open
hjs case to a jury that bad already de
cided against him.
In fact a man already pledged can
not fairly go into a consultation with
others who are impartial and pretend to
eoufer with them. He is like a gam.
bier, who ltjt for the money of otbtr
people without staking bis own. At
best he resembles a juror wbo decides
his verdict after hearing only one wit
ness, while there are a dnaea others to
be dimmed those evidaace iaimpcr.
taat.
I observe the statement in some tf
the papers that tbe members ought to
oe pieagea lo prevent their misrepreseu
ting the people. To avoid this let hou
orab.e and wise men be chosen.
Tricky meu can find excuses for duiug
what thev olease to do. Firmera
Buncombe when they turn their stock
out into the range often crop or spill
the ears of bo ned cattle and brand
their colls with a hot iron. I hope tha
time Das not lit airi'ed whio it is
deemed necessary to send our represen
tatives to llileign ear-marked, or
branded with any letter from A to Z.
inclusive. I do not select these letters
because one of tbem begins the i ame
Augustus and other L bulon, but my ub
ject is to include all tbe letters in tbe al
ohabct.
As to these gentlemen themselves,
without di'paragir.g either of them, I
thiuk it mar fuirlr be said that thev
have no advantage over several others
in the State except tbat for the las', fif
teen years thev have been more oer-
- r
sistently seekers of high offije, perhaps,
than any ol their rellow-citixeus
Mukine continual claim, as the Itw
yers say, d es not give a ma i a title to
political mtwe. IM r does the lact that
the people have given a man an off)
place them under any obligation to gie
Dim anotner or rc-tlect rum.
There seems to be en attempt by the
partisans of these g ntleuieo, by coo
stanny placing them in antagonism I
each other, to create the imuress'un
r
that they possess some sort uf preern
nence nf claim over others. Anthmv
and O.tavius divided the Unman E n-
pire between them iu its state of decay,
out inougn .virtn Utrolina Sulljrca
greatly by tbe wjr, she is still too large
ana too strong to oe carried in the
pocket of one man or even divided be
tween two.
Though I was myself twice elected to
me senate, jet i never (ought to nave
aoy one pledged to me bd ire bis elec
tion.
Ii two instances men who were
pledged to vote against me, wsre for
that reason be ten by my friends. If
man pledged should be opposed by
respectable candidate who was not
pledeed. I should eire the oreference to
the latter upon the same principle that
1 would meet a man as a Juror wbo
had formed and exareaaed an ooinia i.
, i -
J here is a sense of mstice m the
minds ol the peoole. that I crcnerlv
appealed to. will induce them to nrefer
fair and honest dealing to political
contrivances a 'd artful strategy.
f uo old the members of tbe Leeis Is.
tore decide to hold a cautw, it seems
clear that those can fairly meet t con
sult together wbesi minds are open to
conviction, A man who bis aireadv
p'edged himself bas no right lo pretend
to unite with others for a fair consulta
tion when his hands have aireadv baan

tertaincd, without considering whether
they may prove agreeable to tbe aspi
rants and their friends or otherwise. I
hope the people of Ihe State wrH elect
the best men they can secure, and that
when assembled they will choose that
person whose talents and fiJelity to the
public interests wiil make bim Ibe best
