I - We learn that .a Presiding Eld r of the.Mcthodist church west of here was recently accosted by a Democratic lawyer and charged with advocating the election of Buxton and ornosine that of Jarvis from the pulpit The uuuiBteriueuieu u. iip etua ne Bimpiy preached on the occasion referred to, as his text led him, against sin in all its forms, and closed by exhorting his hearers, in the selection of public of ficers, to vote for none but virtuous, upright and tobcr men, as a means of advancing the cause of morality and religion. This, it seems, was construed into opposition to Jarvis. , - ! f 3en. Barringer met his competitor, James L. Robinson, during his recent -canvass in Ithe West, and arraigned him for charging the State triple mileage when he went to Raleieh to take his seat in the Senate. This- he could not and did not deny. Such is the man the retrenching and reform ing Democracy have nominated for the high office ot Lieutenant-Governor of the State. . , Dr. R, M. Norment. our talented candidate for Secretary of State, ad dressed quite a respectable ludieme at the Court-house in this place tn Tharsday night of last week. Rut a few hours notice had been given, yet tbe Court-house .was Weil fJlled. br. Norment waa introduced by the EJi- tor of the American, and entertained bU hearers for about one hour iu a speech that was Mrich, rare and racy," aGndlsjj in illustration, wit and anecdote,' and which was frc- quently applauded.
