MUCn SPEECHIFYING.
Pool and Abbott "Speak a Piece."
GOV. CALDWELL NOMINATED.
The Convention met at 12 -o'clock,
and was called to order by Samuel F.
Phillips, Esq., the Chairman ot the
State Executive Committee, who named
the appointment of Jeans U. Harriss,
cold,.as temporary Chairman'; of the
Convention, which was unanimously
adopted and R. Mitchell, of Bertie and
J. H. Heaton of New Hanovor, appoin
ted Secretaries. '
. After a characteristic speech ftom
Jeems, the same with some slight vari-
atiuuo of the same old one, a Commit
tee of one Itu. ach Congressional
District was appointed "oi . Armaflent
organization, and a like committee uu
credentials.
Thecomuiittees were requested to re
port ta the rear of the stae for consul
tation and work.
During the absence of the Committee
several notables were called upon for a
peech, all of whom Came promptly
forward. First in order came Dockery,
Col O. II., who is a candidate for the
Gubernatorial nomination. His speech
was short, and decidedly a Dockcry
Grant document. Next it order was
HON", john pool. HcthoughLit wa3not
time tir him to speak, he would reserve
"Ins suns for the summer campaign
when the party, might expect to hear
him. Alter Pool, Abbott, the carpet
Dagger wuo naa so long ioiiowea tne
example of Pool, in the U. S. Senate,
followed suit and quickly retired,to the
ratincati n "ot the party.
Judge Settle was next called for, who
came out, made his bow, had but little
o say, said it, and retired behind the
cenes. He, too, had a big gun to shoot
during the Summer campaign, and
could not waste ammunition now.
Jos. W. Holden was next trotted out.
He spoke ot the meeting fcur years ago
as compared with this ; the character ot
this being so much more respectable,
&c. Wa know what he wanted to say
something about the disappearance
ot the carpet baggers, as connected with
jthc character of the meeting, but Ab
bott was in two teet of him, occupying
a front seat, and he couldn't say it. He
spoke ot Grant's prospects as certain for
nomination ; oenouucea JNortn Caro
lina Republicans that would '.'go for"
the Cincinnati Convention, told the
" Dick Robinson" anecdote of the nig
ger on the steamboat explosion and
Railroad run off; he was "right aar it
Grant was nominated, but " whar was
he" with the Cincinnati nominees, &c.
&c. Atter his conclusion Mat. W. A.
Smithf or Johnson, answered the call of
the house, in a characteristic speech of
fifteen minutes. He admitted that he
had been wandering from the fold, but
this great awakening had re-converted
him. He hart participated in all
party Conventions, but was content
now to remain witlj. the party of new
moral ideas. ' " - '
Aitft the Major's speech, ttie" Presi
dent resumed the chiir, when 'Abbott
made a motion in regard to adjourn
ment. Belore the motion could be put
a white man. from New Hanover, rose
and opposed any motion for adjourn
ment, before Gov. Caldwell had a say
in this Convention. i
Mabson, col'd, from New Hanover,
said Got. Caldwed had a right to (be
present in the Convention, and he for
one would not beg him to make a speech,
(applause.) : i
Senator Moore, from Craren, after
much difficulty, succeeded in getting
the floor, and while replying to Mabson,
on Caldwell,' and opposing Abbott's
motion Abbott appeared on the stage
and in a loud and excited manner with
drew his motion. "The President in ut
tempting to seat Moore, from Craven,
whom he contended wrs out of order,
caused great confusion in the hall, in
the mitlst of which, the New Hanover
man aain pressed upon the convention
the claims of Gov. Caldwell to a special
right of invitation to address the body.
This aad the effect of adding fuel to the
flames and for several minutes the great
est excitement and consternation pre
vailed, which was only suodued by the
timelv aDDearance of Gov. Caldwell in
the aisle who made his way to tne
. , . .
.Hnd amifl the rteatemn" shouts and
annla'use of his friends.
The Governor said lie only came at
the special request and invitation of the al government, such aid, by the pro
Convention. Did not intend or desire vision of a public fund, or the donatiqn
to participate in its deliberations, ana
would not only beg to be excused from
as -eech but from remaining in the Hall
and retired.
Abbott renewed his motion that when
the Convention adjourn, it adjourn
to meet at 2J o'clock, when the motion
was carried: half the house rosa to de-

The Chair then announced that Gov.

by a majority vote, and, on motioa of
Gen. Abbott, the? vote was made unani
mous. ..)
Immediately upon the announcement,
Judge Settle made his appearance upon
the stand and heartily seconded the
nomination, pledging the support of
himself and friends to1 the nomination
of Governor J Caldwell. He endorsed
all the recent actions of the Governo:,
and would follow in his lead, believing
that he would be the Governor for the
next four years.
! Gen. Dockery endorsed the remarks
of Judge Settle. He, too, would heart
ily support the nomination of Governor
Caldwell.
James Justice of Rutherford, spoke
in behalf of Judge Logan, pledging his
section to the nomination.
After the retirement of Justice, loud
and frequent ) calls brought to his feet
Maj. W. A Smith. A3 he rose a voice
in the gallery cried out "Blow your
horn Billy "-f Wut " Billy " didn't blow.
He excused himself, and took his seat.
A committee of live were appointed,
with Judge Settle as chairman, to wait
upon Gov. Caldwell, inform him of his
nomination and request his immediate
presence on the s.tand.. After the retire
ment of thij committee,
The committee on resolutions through
their chairman,, reported the following :
The Republicans of North Carolina
in Convention assembled d : .
Eesolce, l.j The platform and princi
ples of the Republican party of North
Carolina as heretofore enunciated in its
Conventions) are hereby re affirmed, and
events have proved that their practical
enforcement! unessential to the welfare
of the country, artd to the maintainence
ot the rights, interests and liberties of
tbe.people. j
2. That the Administration of Presi
dent Grant meels with our hearty and
unqualified approval, and our delegates
to the National Republican Convention,
to assemble at Philadelphia on the 5th
day of June! next, are instructed to vote
ior nis re nomination to tne i-ressuency
of the United States.
3. That the Republican party of
North Carolina favors as rapid a dimu
nition and as early an extinction of all
internal revenue taxation as the exigen
cies of the Government will permit; for
the reason that the details of its collec
tion are necessarily offensive, and in
many respects,! oppressive to the people.
4. That all internal revt nue taxes on
the distillation of fruits ought to be
abolished. v
5. That ( the Republican party of
North Carolina recommend to the Con
gress of thei United States the passage
of a general amnesty bill, and the adop
tion or an necessary measures for the
enforcement and protection of the civil
and political rights of all classes of
American citizens.
G. I bat in a free and representative
government, we recoguize the para
mount obligation to provide efficiently
i ior tne general education ot tnepeopie,
ana we lavor such legislation as wilt
accomplish that end rTthat we respect
fully recommend and ask of the nation-
of- public 1 lands to the purposes ot
establishing schools- in the severa.1
States, as will secure to the masses of
the people of all classes the benefits of
a liberal education.
7. That we fully endorse the act of
Congress, passad to secure equal rights
and protection to the citizens ot the
United States, in the several States;
and we respectfully recommend a con
tinuance pf the present laws and the
adoption of such iurther legislation as
will more certalalv seenre to the 'citi
zens, full and practical enjoyment of ail
their rights, privileges and liberties r
, 8th. In the opinion of this Convention,
the Democratic majority cf the last
Legislature, by consolidating into one
act its numerous propositions to amend
the State Constitution, endeavored to
force upon the people a forced issue.and
to coerce them into the adoption of
obnoxious amendments, and insomuch
as all these propositions must be sub
mitted to the next Legislature for Rati
fication, before the same can be referred
to the people, therefore. 1
4 Eosolved 1, That the amendments pro
posed as a whole du not meet the ap
proval of the republican party, because
their adoption would subvert: essential
principles of the existing Constitution.
2d. 4That Republicans can en
dorse a portion ot said amendments,
and the next General Assembly may
adopt stchof them as shall seem best
for the general welfare. j
9. That we cordially endorse the ad
ministration of Governor Caldwell and
recognize the lact that our people may
rely upon; his firmness in upholding
their rights, and we heartilyjthank him
for resisting1 the revolutionary pur
poses of those who designed to deprive
the citizen of the protection afforded,
by the State Constitution.
10. That forgetful of personal prefer-,
ence we pledge ourselves to support
earnestly and without reserve, the can
didates presented by this Convention,
believing that in unity alone is strength
and that principles are more important
than men, to the Republicans of North
Caroilna. ; j ' j j"-..'.
Atter the adoption of -the resolutions
R. C. Badger, Esq., "routed " upon the
stage with another lot id his band which
he wished to attach as a " tail end " to
those just passed. We regret that we
are unable to publish them, which we
would have done if they were obtain
able. They were in substance an! ap
proval of Abbott's course in Congress,
and requesting the United States Sen
ate to seat this man as Senator from
North Carolina.
Smith, of Johnston, spoke agains : the
adoption of the resolutions, j Said it
would be more than the party could
carry in the coming campaign ; that this
wasa matter which this Convention had
nothing to do with, &c. .He was freT
quently interrupted by delegates who
charged him with voting against Ab
bott when in the Legislature, and one
fellow went so far as to state that it was
doubtful as to which side the Major tts
going with in the campaign, j At this
juncture another rupture was percepti
ble, whtn Williamson, col., of) Frank
lin, succeeding in gaining th? floor, and
supported the position of Majl Smith,
and upon his motion the resolutions
were tabled. ;
1 he Committee with Gov. Caldwell
in charge, arrived, when the Governor
accepted the nomination in a speech of
about an hour's length. He was espe-.
cially gratified in receiving the nomi
nation, (of course he was) from this the .
largest Convention ever assembled in
the State. He complimented the body
as the finest looking set of men he ever
saw. (Our 0 foot 9, Cumberland "dile-
rrct lilarlr tht ettKlo hinrroa nf npr-
dition, and straight as a church steeple
with his stove pipe bat, had a front
seat.) He also said it was the most in
telligent body that ever met in the
Stae, (the fellow that moved to vote
visa tosa was standing op in the aisle at
the time.) , I !
He promised the Convention that he
would not lie idle during the campaign
but traverse the State from Cherokee
to Currituck that he would
bear the
standard through to victory, &t
lie spoke of his veto message to the
Legislature, when he defeated the Con
vention Bill, which would have de
prived his colored friends j of their
every right ; was quite facetious in
his description of Speaker Jaryis' action
when he received the message, and his
race into the Senate Chamberjto confer
with Presdent Warren, during which
he was muchly applauded by the faith-
The remainder of his SDeeci was de
voted to the colored element.
. - .
He told
them about the "bucking post
" how
the overseer would give them three hun
dred lashes at it, in days of slavery,
how the father and mother was separa
ted by the negro trader ; at this point
he assumed a tender and pathetic voice
which doubtless had its effect-of enlis
ting the heartfelt sympathy of his sable
constituents. He closed witn anounsn
for Grant and a repetition ot his
promise to work for the succjess of the
ticket.
After the Governor concluded an old
white headed man from the country
gave vent to his pent up enthusiasm in
a resular old fashioned camp-meeti ng
shout. Tais struck the key note of
some of the ol der colored bretheren,
who indulged in a regular 'Tanner's"
meeting-house hand shaking. This
part of the programme anorded great
amusement to the reporters and others
on the stand. I j
