Do not yote your tickets until you have '"ft i ! ! closely examined them ! and ascer-: tained that they are right. See that ! I : no othet names than those of your party are upon them. I Get 'them right arid then vote. This alarm signal is given because the Radicals are capable of any dodge or plan that will deceive. In Petersburg, Ya., they have caused to be printed tickets that contain only a part of the Democratic candi- j dates. J In New Hanover county the same trick has ; been tried as to a1 county office. The satrie sort of rascality may be attempted on a larger scale. Do not: vote until you are satisfied that you have the right ticket. Let every name be carefully examined. DEMOCRATIC DEFALCATION A i VINDICATION. Mr. Scarborough, Superintendent of Public Instruction, has written a letter to' the Charlotte Observer about the defalcation of Col. Stephen D. Pool, the Superintendent of Pub lic Instruction in 1874-'75. He says the amount was $2,800, and that all was paid to the Peabody Fund. Col. Pool paid $2,100 and the members of the Peabody Board paid $700. Col. Pool is now an old man. He was long an editor in our State. He is of a highly respectable : family in Pasquotank county."- His father was a man of influence arid character. Col. Pool was an enthusiastic Con federate J and served his country faithfully. We believe that he has been misunderstood, and, conse quently, misrepresented even byjhis own party. The time has come to do him justice. j The writer of this was for fifteen months brought into most intimate communication with him. ! He sat at a desk in the Superintendent's Office whilst engaged in editing Our Liv ing and Our Dead and 'the North .Carolina Educational Journal. He iiad constant conversations of a f rank and free business character from day to day. He became possessed in this way of all of Col. Pool's plans and hopes.- He discerned early that J,he Colonel was of a very sanguine tem perament and that success had made him very hopeful and en thusiastic. He was to some extent a builder of. air-castles. His elec uon, alter a canvass conducted with zeal and ability on his part, to the office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, and the erreat success that attended the first , year of his magazine that, was his chief thought lea mm; to form expectations that - r 7, .

Just here was the j .nMr nn nhion Tia snlit. I We 8aw enough of his business transactions to find out thahe was a a man of intense hope a somewhat I ,,;o;VTr Knt wQ hova nnt. nnw I and have never had, the J slightest I doubt of his personal integrity, He never expected Or intended to use one cent of the Peabody Fund that he would not replace. He did precisely what we have known many honest men to do to use funds in hand but replacing them in time. Col. Pool, we feel satisfied, used the $2,800 with no other purpose or wish than to make it good before it was called for. He, had eight months or more in which to do this, and he be lieved he would have ample means with which to meet it. He was im prudent, as other men have been in such, matters, and he was unfortun ate. We will never believe that he handled one cent with criminal in tent. We had a confidential talk with him soon after the public was put in possession of the facts, and be assured us that never for one moment did he purpose to take one cent of the fund, but meant to replace in full time, every cent. We believe he spoke the truth, fer we believe that Stephen D. Pool, although nnder a cloud, is a genuinely honest man If his en- thusiastic calculations had worked out as he fully believed, there would have been no trouble and no unfor tunate exposure. We know that most men will still think harshly of him and believe him to be corrupt, but we believe in this judgment he will be wronged. We knew a gentleman of as high character as any man in the State. He was a Ruling Elder in the Pres- byterian Church and a gentleman of I the old school dignified, scrupulous high-bred, of rigid notions of proprie ty and right, a man of the most sen sitive honor, who would riot have taken a cent improperly for a king dom. ' He had a fund belonging to parties in Tennessee. It was in his possession for many years. He had been led to think that the fund would not be called for in many years to come.. From time to time, as he needed $5 or $10, he would draw it out from the fund and place his due bill for the same in the package. One day, and quite suddenly, the money was called for.. He looked into the package, added up the due bills and found they aggregated some $700 or $800. He went out and in a few moments sold enough property to fetch him the money needed. If he had not been a man of means he would have been a sufferer, might have been sacrificed. And yet a more thoioughly honest man never lived or died in North Carolina, t A REMARKABLE MODE OF PRE. PABATION. ; It is interesting to know the men tal habits of men of marked gifts. The writer had occasion to show the mode of preparation of that rarely gifted pulpit, orator, the late Rev. Thomas G. Lowe, of Halifax. - When he was preparing elaborately for. a special occasion he thought out the entire sermon word for word, never writing aline. He could afterwards reproduce it precisely as he had con ceived thought and language. His highest eloquence, however, was when he was so charged with matter that he spoke under the heat of in spiration and relied entirely upon the occasion for language with which tofnTheV? gooaas convey his beautiful and entrancing The sole hope of such political i - ttt 4.1.: olnn?; I f 111 irn t VVB rr!iir l.l 1 LUIBOUIQUUIU I xv.cumonu -clu. says i5isnop neroe - rareiy, u . vci, v: w hl hhi .u - - -. 7 rr uau uxor " - . . -j- - . ..... i SltlUfl UV Virtue 'Vl ' WUMJU , ub " I . n M - - n n rw w W VX7 U I HI - - ..... suits tu uuuotmuu F51,.. grapn, lay u away trranh. lav it aw&v in 'the warder 0t r 7 mi . . . - . . 1 mlnd., and renroduce.

Lowe would forget his sermons after a few weeks, lie needed something to bold nis mental enoris an iaea caicuer uu tu upetni. 1 It seems from Dr. Lipscomb's ao- not only constructed sermons purely by a meutal process without writing, but he conld retain the brain work and call upon it long afterwards with full assurance that the memory would be responsive to the demands, Tmlv ft vprv wnndArfnl or ift, ! Savs Dr. Lipscomb: "I do not think that Bishop Pierce was an extemporary preacher in the popular sense of the phrase, lie thought out n is sermons and arranged them beforehand. while trusting his impulses to give them the fullness of effective speech. He was a student thinker of extraordinary power, but I believe he would hare been greater if he had been more of a student writer." AN ASSAULT UPON LOCAL SELF- GOVERNMENT. If Yankees prefer to frame local laws that will send the whites and negroes to the same schools and to enable the two races to intermarry, let them do it. It is their degrada tion. But when the Yankee Ed munds frames a law and, aided and abetted by other Yankees and certain treacherous JSouthern whites of the York stripe, causes it to be passed, the intent-of which is to force misce genation and mixed schools upon the white people of North Carolina, then it becomes a very serious business and we say hands off; we will take none of your degrading and infamous doctrines in our cup. It is the policy of the Republican party to attempt the degradation of the white race. No persons in North Caro- , . . . , , , .1 una uuu xvau.ca.a ivor eucu ueapi- cable and villainous law a law that J sets at naught the great law of Na-1 ture, and drags down to the level of the negro the white race after fifteen hundred years of educational training in the schools of morality, literature, philosophy and law. It is the Radioal will in North Carolina that there shall be mixed schools and social equality. So says tDe resolution adopted at Chicago. So: say York, Winston and the re mainder of the crew. The question is one that is for the States to regu late and not the Congress. Yankee Edmunds has no right to attempt to fasten his degraded no tions upon the white people of this State or any Southern Stale. It is an attempt to destroy local self-government. BLAINE GUDGEONS. At Port Jervis the "tattooed man" from Maine made a Tariff speech. Like all of his speeches it was mis- leading, specious and unfair. Blaine C0Qia not deal with anv subiect in a spirit of candor, and in his distress now he is unable to do any thing but show conspicuous facility and ability is hedging, dodging and deceiving. At Port Jervis he tried to make cap ital by talking to his hearers after this way: "When the Republican party came into power in the nation there were not 30.000 ! r i . . . ... nmes oi railway in me country, mat was twenty-three years ago. There are now nearly 120,000 miles." , He would have his .auditors and the country believe that all this is owing to the great and good and glorious party of which he is such a perfect, such a fitting representative, But the Philadelphia Times pricks tlie bubblein one short paragraph. says: . "This is a kind of argument that is sus ceptible of indefinite application. For ex ample: When the . Republican party came into power in the nation there were but 24,042 insane persons - and 18.930 idiots in the country. There are now 91,997 insane persons and 76,895 idiots. Is there any man who doubts that this three-fold increase, etc.? Or again: When the Republican party came into power in ' the nation there were but 19,068 criminals in the prisons of the United States: there , are now nearlv 60,000. - Post hoc. ergo DroDter hoc.

A few interesting details have been dis closed to-day concerning the scene which occurred when the Rev. Mr. Burchard, who was addressing Mr. Blaine, said: "As for your opponent, Grbver Cleveland, he simply repre sents rum, Romanism and rebellion A gentleman who was present at the time, said to-day that the expres sion of this sentiment by Mr. Burch ard was received with marked ap proval and enthusiasm by Mr. Blaine's inuuus, muru au mail aujrimug wuwu was said during the time the clergy men were in the room, and met, as far as he had seen, with more actual hearty response than any other event during tbe campaign Mr-' Blaine's, tacit, if not actual, endorsement of this prohibition, anti Catholic and bloodv-ehirt sentiment i8 not likely to help his campaign in this city or State. Some of Blaine's Hosts. New York Times, Rep. A Roman Emperor was of the opinion that all cash had a savory smell. Mr. j Blaine, too, Las always been of the opinion that one man's money was as good as another s, and has levied with impartial hand upon the railroad j projector and the rural deacon. But there is a point at which even Blaine ought in prudence to stop the week before the election. At the collection which was taken up at Delmonico's last night among the hosts of Mr. Blaine and the con tributors to his campaign fund were Jay Gould, Russell Sage, Cyrus W. Field, and "Wash" Connor. These are the men who are glad of the ohance of making an investment in a first mortgage upon Blame s Presi dential ehances. These are the men? who hail the opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a Blaine Admin istration. "RUM, ROMANISM AND RE BELLION.'9 Weekly Union and Catholic Times. At the meeting of the ministers with Blaine in this city Wednesday, the Rev. Mr. Burchard, in his ad dress to Blaine said : 'ion represent all the virtues.

The United States marshal of Indiana said to night that he would certainly appoint mar shals for any city over 25,000 inhabitants that would apply for them. If the truth were known, it would probably be found that one party is about as badly frightened as tbe other, and about as uncertain as the other, concerning the outcome. Hender son's poll shows a clear majority for Cleveland in the State, while John C. New is in possession of figures which prove that Blame will triumph. Anderson, however. offered to bet New six thousand dollars that Cleveland would carry New York and Indiana. New backed down, but said he would bet on Indiana. Special Dispatch to. News and Courier. Col. John J. Freeman,the well- founder of the Ninth Ward Colored lie publican Association, was arrested by r'inKerlon detectives on a charge of having violated the election laws. The arrest has brought to light the startling fact that ille gal registration has been extensively prac tised in this city. L p to the present time not less than 3, 000 cases of false registration have been unearthed and warrants for the arrest of a large number of persons have been issued. It is said that 10,000 false re gistrations have been made, but that the majority of them are well known to the District Attorney, and that the persons thus violating the laws will be brought to Justice. N. J . World, Oct 31. Philadelphia, October 30. A remarkable political phenomenon has oc curred in this city to-day. It is seen in a widespread and growing feeling of anxiety among Blaine men regarding the result of Tuesday's election. The wriler spent an hour at tbe Union .League Club to-night conversing with its members upon the na tional contest. Several of the gentlemen who a week ago chanted the praises of Mr. Blaine and predicted for him a splendid tri umph were gravely combating each other's fears that defeat was not only possible but probable. One gentlemen who was promi nent in the recent reception to the Maine candidate said openly in the reading room: " That dinner with Gould has killed Blaine. He will never be President." The feeling appears to be in the air everywhere that Cleveland s chances are improving hourly. special to JSew lorc Herald. OUR STATE CONTEMPORARIES.
