Special Correspondence of the News.
f ; , : Taeboro, July 1 7, 187G. '
vTarboro is alive to-day. There are
3,000 people here from Edgecombe
and the adioimnsr counties. -The
Tilden and Vance Club at Tarboro
net Gov. Vanco - at Rocky Mount,
ana , accompanied him to Tarboro.
They carried along their cannon,
making music, all the way! down..
VV hen we reached the Grove wia found
the stand decorated with a large and
elegant national -.flag, our emblem of.
patriotism. Beautiful iboquets also
adorned ' the stand, " evergreens and
wreaths encircled the whole ulat-
orm, and. from the exquisite taste
displayed, I know the fair daughters
of Tarboro had been at work in their
quiet Way, to do honor to North Car
olina's " great standard-bearer. Two
hundred; of the ladies of Tarboro
graced the occasion with their pres
ence. The Hook and Ladder Com
pany at Tarboro turned out! in full
uniform, and they, together with the
Tarboro and Rocky Mount 1 Tilden
and Vance Clubs, escorted the Gov
ernor to the Grove amid the roar of
cannon, the cheers of the vast crowd,
and music, by the baud. The Gov
ernor was introduced by Mr. :S. S.
Nash, President of the Tilden and
Vance, Club, in a short but very ap
propnale speech; after which the
Governor,' in his" strong but happy
style portrayed it he workings of the
laws, ana the execution of -the same
d u rini; his ad ministration ,as" G o vern -or.
He save the orders and had the
aw executed through his subordi
nates. . "
He (the Governor) did not execute
the laws himself and challenged any
man, woman or child to say, that he
ever persecuted any person, lie
never maltreated-or persecuted any
deserter or citizen of North Carolina,
and the charge , was the biggest lie
ever jerked from a Radical's throat.
The Governor further said, he went
into the war poor, and came out poor,
few men have bad the chance to mis
appropriate the public fund, that he
had during the war, yet no man can
say he ever took a dollur. , '
The speech- lasted two hours, and
pressed home facts and arguments
that were deep thorns in the flesh of
the Radicals. His' arguments were
terse and to the point, and carried his
audience with him, with enthusiasm
and profound attention.
The Governor was received in a
manner that argues .well for the . re
sult in November, and, judging from
the interest taken m his rpeech,
Edgecombe will increase 1ier Demo
cratic vole to a large number. 'Mid
cheers upon cheers, and the loudest
and most prolonged applause and un
bounded enthusiasm V ance closed. .
Next came that'great war horse of
Democracy, Gen. J. Madison Leach,
and; one of the electors' at large.
After he was introduced, he said that
it was generally considered where he
lived that he knew how to speak,
but to follow Vance in his eloquence
was almost impossible. ; lbe (general
was glad to see the ladies present; it
was a good omen, as they bad come
out with their beauty and their smiles
to give honor, to the occasion and
keep their husbands straight, and
their sweethearts in the traces. ' f
He exorted the: voters of ! Edge
combe not to lag,- but tbati every
voter should come; out. We want
work, with voice, with pen, with la
bor and nnity of action. I stand
here to-day to denounce or abuse no
race or color. The Republican party
has h pat forth a respectable' 1 ticket,
and the smartest part or the ticket
was like a kangaroo the strength is
in the tail, and the strength of the
Republican ticket is in W heeler, i. bo
with their State ticket. It is the
strongest they could make from the
Republican party. . ; . J .
i The General then compared the
two and showed the Democratic par
ty was in the ascendancy, and in fa
vor of reform, and reformation, while
the Republican party weTo. only in
for making all they could. i ;
1 'He then took up the Constitution
question,' and showed! that under the
new, VJOnsw-uiioQ me expenses wouiu
be over 'one hundred thousand , dol
lars less under the amendments than
under the present Constitution,', and
said this 1 ought not.' to; be-:' a- party
measure, but all, for the good of pur
commonwealth, should vote for the
amendments. 1 - ..''!,' '
ISoatf News from;the Land of Flowers.
It is not unlikely thai Florida will
go for Tilden and Hendricks;! Under
the stimulus "of the St. Iiouis ticket
and very liberal and. popular State
nominations, the Democrats are hold
ing' mass : meetings ; and ' barbecues,
and running railway trains to carry
the crowd; and what is notable, large
numbers of the negro voters are join
ing them, Cplored Democratic clubs
also are organising in different parts
of the State, '
' . The war of the Carpenter and anti
Carpenter factions of the, Republican
party, in Wisconsin, is likely to give
that State to the Democrats nnless a
reconciliation .: is 5 brought - abont in
some way, f The Democrats are al
ready in "the field, and are working to
win, but the Republicans are inactive
and quarrelsome.' ; ..J'
