, '.,-ca" .:) Official Or fan of the Vnitcd Stnte. W. 31. MIJOWX, Malinger. KJLKIGII, r. C'.s THURSDAY, MAY 11, IS7G. It is understood that the Hon. Thos. S. Asho will bo n. candidate for re-election in the Mecklenburg District. JaiVy X'eics. Ah, indeel ! So the little same to run Ashe oft" and make him the leader of the Democratic forlorn hope for Governor is resisted. We knew that the hotpur3 were try ing to make a soft place for the harlequin, Vance, but we liavo all nlonpr doubted whether Ashe would t imely submit to such trickery. Of course, though, Ashe'd wishes will not be respected. He will be per suaded off if possible, but, failing in that, he will le forced to give way for "ye valiant war Gov ernor. The Board uf Commissioners of the city made a formal demand upon the usurping Doard of Alder men, on the 8th, for the osaession of the property of the city. The demand, on the part of the Com missioners, was made, by order, through 31. D. Darbee, Esq., one of their number. Gen. Gorman also presented his demand for the sur render of the mayorality, upon Moj. Manly. The usurers were disposed not to hear the demand, but it was nevertheless made, both by word and in writing. These revolutionists who have seized upon the city government, it is evident, intend to evade, by every means in their power, the demands of law. Dut they will be compelled to succumb, and it is only a question of time vhen the whole piratical crew will be i&uo miniously ejected. If General Cox and Col. Cowles and the Hon. B. R. Houston and S. M. Finger and M. E. MeCorkle and Sherift Kline ef id omne genus had shown the same zeal to have hael the red handed murderers and scourgers of the poor and weak and defenceless, who differed with them in political opinion, brought to jus tice, that they have shown about eolored men accused by their polit ical enemies of petit larceny and now in Alabama, public justice would have been much better sub served and the teweler consciences of the aforesaid political saints woulel doubtless been much easier at midnight. Ry tho way, how much effort did Sheriff Kline make to arrest tho cold blooded murderer of a harmless colored man in the town of Hickory lately ? And how much ' effort did he use a few years ago to put an end to tho whippings and outrages on the part of his K. K. frientls that disgrace tl his county antl shocked all humanity except Democratic humanity ? Martyrdom. "When he speaketh fair, believe him not, for there are seven abomi nations in his heart." Thus poke the wisest man of whom Holy writ gives an account. As in the days of old so the proverb now holds good. Martvrs, however, in the olden days were mee k and consci entious men. They suffered terri ble persecutions and were subjected to excruciating torments, but they had but little, if any, guile. The abominations of their hearts had been cast out, and, knowing their MASTERS' will, they did It. Modern martyrs are not so. They court martyrdom for selfish pur poses. They speak fair, only to ele ceive. Seven times seven may be numLered as the abominations in their hearts,'. 'Goodly outside and silver tongued tones are cultivated to more easily dupe the innocent and unsuspecting. The latest self-manipulated mar tyr of the Democratic party, struts the stage as the hero of what ho be lieves to be the offended law. So Imbedded In his heart of hearts is his love of law, that he even for gets what is law. So fearful is he that his martyred pomposity will bo suffered to relax before the com ing Democratic Convention, which is expected to redress martyrs woes generally, that he continually fans the waning flame even to theextent of endeavoring to force our peace ful Governor . to override all lawl and infringe upon tho rights of a sister State by illegally seizing upon Its citizen and dragging them hither to appease the wrath of what mgy be termed the offended majes ty of not the law but the so-called Democratic party. . This martyr Is a martyr to what " , . -m 1- ho afiectV f obo misrule. All rule s misrule fcxeept his rule. If he rules not.tho is martyred in his opinion. To regain his rule, ho speaks fair ; but it is an effort, be cause the seven abominations, ha tred, arrogance, deceit, party-malice, vanity,; ambition and cunning almost choke his utti rar.ers. Still, K!icy succctds, ami ignorance prompts him to bvlieve that his whining notes of pretense are gulli jly swallowed. Thu-j he struts, and thus he is pictured. "When he spvaketh fair," &c. Thos. D. Keogh, Chairman cf the State Republican Executive Com mittee, has secure el accommodations fur the North Carolina Delegation to Cincinnati at the Grand Hotel. The North Carolina headquarters during the session of the Conven tion will be in one of the spacious parlors on the oliice floor of .the hotel. Mr. Keogh has also made the fol lowing special rates with the R. & D. and Ches. & Ohio Ilailroads for all persons who wish to go to Cincin nati as delegates or otherwise.

"Ought to Have his Throat Cut." It win be recollected by those who listened to the argument on both sides, in the city mandamus and injunction case, that the legal, illegally employees of the late Roard cf Aldermen, in their plead ings before J udges Ilcnry and Walts, de hired that "if the court decldeel against them that no citizens in the commonwealth would obey its mandate sooner or with more alac rity than they." (This is the iden tical language of Mr. Fuller.) The court eleclared against them. In stead cf obeying with "alacrity," they immediately sought pretexts to disobey the manelateof thecourt. The chief of flic Democratic fraud, to prevent a registration which was required in two days after the mandate of thecourt selected men whom he knew would not serve. He held private consultations with his appointees in order to ascertain the'ir feelings, and instructed them to delay as long as possible registra tion, and thus defeat the prayer of the plaintiffs and the order of the court. No registration under the order of court was owing to this chicanery held in the two Repub lican wants of the citv : and it was thus sought to deprive our peo ple of the right of suffrage. Rut it was without avail ! Thank God, a Republican Constitution and a for mer republican legislature in its intuitive wis lorn and sagacity com prehending even the rascality of the coming Democracy provided a way whereoy the fraud could be prevented. It teas prevented ! And the fraudulent Mayor B. C. Man ly disappointed in his vain at tempt to defeat the will of the peo ple, openly declared that it was not his intention to implicitly obey the mandate of tho courts, and further declared "that any Democrat who icoutd accept the appointment of reg istrar and poll vWJer" under the order of the court calling a three ward election "OUGHT to HAVE HIS THROAT CUT !" This was said before the election ! Ku KIux, stand aside! You are out-llerod-ed ! An individual claiming to be the Mayor of Raleigh has openly declared that any Democrat who accepted his appointment, and thereby obeyed a mandate of the COUrts, OUGHT TO IIAVK IIIST1IKOAT cut!" 2o bill for martyrdom was made in the two Republican wards. Xo Democrat wanted his "throat cut," and hence all who were tendered as registrars, refused or delay ed accep tance of the place of registrar or poll holder, until it was too late to obtain a registration of the true vo ters of either ward. Recollect, law-abiding men, this declaration comes from him who would faiu execute the law in Ra leigh. Your throats ought to be cut IP YOU OBKY THE IAW ! The Supreme court of the United States haa adjourned. The police of Troy, N. YM were flretl into by striking moulders on the Sth, fatally wounding one. The ease of Moultr.n r.

A Stitch in Time saves Nine. To the Editor of TJie Constitution : I eee t various gentlemen in the Eastern part of tho State are send ing you expressions pfpplnion as to who should and who should not head our next State ticket. The West has always been ex ceedingly indifferent in these mat ters, taking whoever the East named for them. It was so in the olden times. Gove mors Alexander, Stokes and Swain were, so far as we now remember, the only occu pants of the Executive chair from the West dptfng i he first sixty years of our history. When Cliti'iMti broke from his Whig allegiance- an I carried the State for poor Fierce in 18o2, our importance as voters was for the first time felt. After that, Ellis and Vance became necessities to their parties, as did Caldwell in his turn to the Republicans. Now, Mr. Editor, we have no man in the West in our party who is fit for Governor. It is not even pretended that we have. It is only a choice, so far as we are concerned, of Eastern men. There stands first and foremost the plow boy of Wayne, the old race horse, who; in forty years on the track, has passed under the stringahvays ahead the man, who, as Auditor of the State for a dozen years, kept his accounts, aggregat ing many millions, so straight that they balanced toa penny our pres ent Governor, honest old Curtis H. Rrogden. With his name leading and giving character to the ticket, with John Reilly and Jenkins and Taz Hargrove re-endorsed with some honest old Had in place of the present Reabody plunderer as Su perintendent of Fublic Instruction, we can safely assume to enter even on the race and trust to our well known energy to win it. PIEDMONT. For Secretary ol State, General Wiley 1. Jones. To the Editor of The Constitution : The State Convention to meet some time tnis summer win De calleel upon among others to nomi nate a candidate for Secretary of State. Wo therefore most earnestly pre sent the name of the gentleman whose name heads this article as a Republican of the true metal and a friend of good government. When the Repu blican party was in its infancy, Gen. Jones' clarion voice could be heard at every point cheering his devoted band to re newed efforts in the cause of Iie- publicanism. Now, that the party has grown stronjr and is able to reward its trusty leaders with places of honor and trust, it ought not, and we think will not forget those who were its first, it warmest and most devoted friends. In the year 13G7 after the passage of the reconstruction acts of Con gress, we find him actively engag ed organizing the Republican party of his county and urging tho people to accept those measures regardless of numerous jeers, scoffs and scorns of former associates. Gen. Jones isan energetic busi- ness man, a successful farmer, and is universally esteemed. We know him to be a gentleman and a good man, true to his country, and like all other true Republicans, unwav ering in his devotion to the sacred cause of freedom and consequent amelioration of his fellow beings. Add to these qualities his undoubt ed loyalty and his devotion to the Union, when we were inarching through the gloomy history of four years, and we hnd beyond doubt the man for the occasion.

Onef Afternoon finfthe city "'of Washington while lieai was unaer 'Sentence orrdeath , "there alighted from a carriaee two men, who walked into the room occupied by Washington McLean :of Cincinnati, whb' was at the time in Washing ton' Iri the interest of his business. TheT,men i who caUelwere Senator Hale of .New Hampshire and John Wilkes Booth. Booth wa3 anxious to save the life of Beal, his chum and confidential personal friend. He had interested Mr. Hale in his behalf. They Importuned McLean to go with them to the President, as a Democrat as a friend of Booth as a man who had much influence with Mr. Hale for any promises Booth might make in return for this great favor to him. After a protracted interview McLean ac companieel Hale and Booth in a carriage to the residence of John W. Forner, who was then in bed, the hour being late. Forney was awakened from his sleep and told the object of his call. His sympa thies were enlisted, as he was al ways ready to serve his friends. It was an hour or more past mid night when Hale, Forney, McLean, and Booth were driven to the White House. The guard, at the request of Forney, admitted the carriage to the grounds. Mr. Lin coln was called from his sleep, and tnere, in the dead of night, he sat and listened to the prayers of Booth and the endorsements of those who came with him to ask the favor of Executive clemency. This interview lasted till 4 in the morning. It was one of tears, prayers, and petition. There was not a dry eye in the room as Booth knelt at the feet of Lincoln, clasped his knees with his hands and begged him to spare the life of one man a personal frienel who, in serving the ones he loved, had come to the door of death. Booth told all. He told how, long before in a fit of passion to do some bold eleed, he had joined in a conspiracy to abduct the President and to Hold him a nostage lor tne release of certain military prisoners who were Booth's friends, and who, it was thought, were to be shot. He told of the meetings they had held at the house of Mrs. Surratt, and that all of that plan had fallen to the ground long before. He offered his services at any time and in any place or capacity, free of cost or fearless of consequences. The eminent gentlemen who were there with him joined in the re quest that the prayer of Booth be granted, and that Beal should be pardoned. At last President Lincoln, with tears streaming down his face, took Booth by the hand3, bade him rise and stand like a man,and gave him his promise that Beal should . be pardoned. He asked the parky to depart that he might gain rest for work of the morrow, and said that the official document that they asked for, should be forwarded at once to United States Marshal, Robert Murray, in New York, and through him to the officers charged with the execution of Beal. After breakfast Lincoln informed Seward, Secretary of State, what he had done, or promised to do. Seward said that it must not be; that public sentiment in ' the North demanded that Beal should be hung. lie declared that to pardon Beal would discourage enlistments, lengthen the war, and insult the sentiment that called for blood. He chided Lincoln for making such promises without asking the advice of his Cabinet, or advising with himseif, Seward, on State policy. As the argument grew contentious, Seward declared that if the war was to bo trifled with by appeals for humanity; he should go out of the Cabinet and use his influence against the President, and should charge him with being In sympa thy with the South. Lincoln yield ed and Bal was executed. The reaction to Lincoln nervous sys tem wa3such that for days he was far from well. The effect on Booth was terrible, lie raved like a mad man, and in his frenzy swore that Lincoln and Seward should both pay for the grief and agony hejhad been put to. From the death of Beal,! Booth brooded vengeance for that which he considered a personal affront. His: rage took in Seward, and lit engaged Harold, Atserodt, and others to. avenge Beal's death by killing Seward, while he. Booth, wreaked -huma vengeance on ; the Presidents j-A , i - i s , J, . . At lat came Xhe hour. Booth killed Lincoln. His friends and the relatives or 1 avengers of Beal iried their best to kill Seward, and when they left him stabbed, bleeding,- and limp as a cloth, as he rolled over behind the bed hereon they found him, they supposed their worK was completely aone.
