Mr. Vance, of North Carolina, de
hvcicd the speech which he announced
on the 7th. Mr. Vance's oratory, both
in manner aud matter, is unsuited to

jictreJ to realize to-day. .

liaverfreated' wild enthusiasm among

nominations were sent to ihp rear, and
was mustering his forces for sending to
the resr the whole 300. ; The President
fired his bomb-shell, and declared that
Kobertson must : be confirmed. ; He
lakes the groun d that there (is no suffi
cient reason for withdrawing Robert
son. There is some talk that the emer
gencies of the situation now require
another caucus, and it is not improba
ble that one will be ! held Saturday.-f
A very interesting question is, whit
will the President do with the canH
didiites Vwithdiawu in case Judge
Robertson is confirmed. The Presi
deDi'rt in'ends say that in such an eyent
he will renominate ijhemviecause nof
to do so would be' tacit acknowledg
ment that they were unworthy to be
nomin-ud at all. The President's mo
tives ms conftrued by bis friends in
miik'ilTg ,' the withdrawals, was to pre
vent the New York Senatorj-from ma
ini any discriminations touching Ner
York appointments. J' '' ' . : ; ,
!;, It is certain, however,; that public
feeling is largely with the lfresideni.'
Already be is in receipt of telegrams
frona ail quarters and from Democrats l
as well as Republicans,; endorsing, his
action. It is considertd certain rpw
that Robertson will be confirmed. A

The Senate has couGrmed the nomi
nation of Hon. Geo. B. Ercritt as Col
lector of Internal Revenue fof the Cth
District of North Carolina, in: place of
Dr. Wheeler, ! notwithstanding the as
sertion of certain papers that he would
not be confirmed. Mr.l Everitt has
made a verr hard fish t fur the place
and has at last succeeded, and we hope
he will be able to perlorm his duty and
enforce the law, which we hae no
doubt that he will do. . He has many
enemies, but he should recollect: that a
political enemy to-day-may be ajstrong
friend to-morrow, and act accordingly.
A public cffice.'ia not private property it
is the property t the people. The of
fice should be run, in 'the firsi place,
(o the benefit of the whole people,
and !a the second place for the tuccess

ral positions in North Carolina , hay e
been considered too loo already the
private property of the holder for binvj
self and his.; friends, regard'esa of the
right's and benefiu of the Republican
party. Buiwe hope, this will now be
stopped. Mr. Everitt will run the office
of the otb District in such way as to
enforco the law and do equal Jostic to
all; but the patrooag of the office we
feel certain will be dutribnttd ia uch
a anaaner as to benefit the party of the
state, and not certain individuals or
memoera of hU family. We aball bare
more to say, about this party matter,

R. y. McAdeo, one of the most emi
nent ofjtheTcitizens of that flourishing
city hal nsed a free- tongue on election
day against a man named Markiey, to
tbe effect that he was a scoundrel, and
the fellow "laid for him." As Mc Aden
came along towards his Bank; with a
borrowed pistol in bis pocket, Markley
stood ia his way, and began- to strip off
his coat, ciinehed McAdcn, who pulled
the trigger of the pwtol and it did not
go off. Then everybody clinched,; and
it ended in putting the .malcontents
