A A ti n or tne fctnie as wouiu require the exhibition of a poll-tax receipt a. a necessary qualification for vo ting. The reasons which prompt the Democracy to desire this change arc clear. Mr. Waring and those who affiliate with him are well aware that the operations of such a foiitur jin our laws would be to a lanr' extent one sided. The color- nl citizens of the State are known to I- the poorer class of our people, nnd Urn rreat maioritv of them think proper to exercise the privil- of votinir in the interest of the K publican party, it is hoped by the De mocracy that this poll-tax quali fication will operate to such an ex tent in their favor as to give them permanent power in the State. We, however, call the attention of the fort to come to a satisfactory u nder peopleof the State to the inference standing with the creditors of the that Mr. Waring and his friends are ready to disfranchise a considerable portion of our citizens for party purposesj even in the face of the fact that by to doing, North Carolina would loe one or more Repre- scntatives in the Congress of the United States. Sixrt ion 2, Article 14 of the Fed- oral Constitution, after providing that Kenrescntatlves snail ne appor- tioned among the reveral States ac- cording to their respective numbers (excluding Indians not taxed) reads : 4 liut when the njrht to vote at any election for choice of electors i i - for President and Vice President of the United States, representatives in Congress, the executive and judi cial otlieers of a Slate, or the mem l p of the legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabit ant of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the Inked States, or in anyway abridg- f!, except for participation in re union or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be re duced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall U'ar to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in ueh State." The italics above are our own. We are can Aden t that the good people of North Carolina would openly rebuke such attempts to sac rifice their material interests for Iarty ends, but we regret to say, the history of the Democratic party for the past fourteen years leads to lie belief that political ascendency k in the opinion of their leading hien, of paramount importance to the public good. Let us of the Re publican party continue steadfast in our devotion to the great principles upon which our organization was founded, never doubting that the people in tbeir own good time will set their seal of condemnation upon such glaring infringements of their rights as are contemplated in Mr. taring's proposition, both as re gards individuals and our position as a State of the American Union. Left. We regret to learn that our young friend,- F. W. Blizard, clerk in the office of Col. p.

We sincerely hope that he may return at no distant time to spend k days among us. ' - Lcsral Advertising The Fo pry- is in of Democracy. In the House, on the&linat., Mr. Wood introduced a bill which com mended itself at once to persons who have given the subject any thought. A similar bill was intro- 411 ocliiittr u;i, uy vir. ivnen, dui was not acteu upon for want of time. It provided that hereafter all public notices of exec utors, administrators, sheriffs, con stables, commissioners, tax collec tors, clerks of the Superior Court or judges of probate should be publish ed in some newspaper or newspapers if there be any published in the county in which said placemen and officers reside, for four weeks, pro vided notice to non-residents should be published for six wTeeks. Clerks or judges of probate were to insert no tices in some newspaper published in their judicial districts in cases where no newspaper is published in the county in which they reside. All notices heretofore authorized by law in newspapers, and all notices 1 1 A 1 A. 1 A neretorore oraerea 10 ue posieu at U"-"UU5C ?UU1 VVC1U 1U1 purposes of the bill deemed public notices. ' The passage of this bill into a law would have secured something like justice to parties whose property may be disposed of under legal pro cess, and prevented its sacrifice and sale at a mere nominal figure, as is now the case, arising from the pres ent ridiculous and farcical mode of advertising required by law. The press, of both parties, and prom inent Democrats, as well as Re publicans, asked for its passage ; and yet, the Democratic House tabled the bill ! What will Col. Allen and the Greensboro Patriot say e nope tne bill may be taken from the table, placed upon the cal- cnuar arm passeu. Our Debt. It is to be hoped that this Gener al Assembly will not finally ad- journ without making an honest ef- State. Although it is not expected that anything like a full discharge of our indebtedness can be accom- plished. vet. the many holders of our bonds in this country and Eu- rope naturally expect that some ar rangement will be entered into look- ing to a future adjustment or an equitable scale. If we cannot pay all, then half, or a quarter, on an eishth. or whatever we can. it is better that some understanding should be arrived at than that the present do nothing policy should be adhered to. Other States are mak ing strenuous efforts to compromise their monetary affairs, and with show of success. Why should North Carolina remain laggard ? Conference. The Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, which has been in session during the past week, brought to the city a large number of ministers of that persuasion. According to custom, invitations were given by the min isters of the Presbyterian and Bap tist churches for the visitors to fill their pulpits, and consequently our people have been favored with an ecclesiastical treat. The Edmton Street Methodist church being considered rather small to hold the audience antici pated, Bishop Marvin delivered an able sermon to a large concourse of people at Metropolitan Hall on Sunday, the 6th inst. Postal. Cards. The new postal cards soon to be issued by the de partment will be much neater in appearance than those now in use.
