Long to be remembered in the an nals of the North Carolina press con vention will be the meeting held in Asheville. Naturally an editor and a North Carolinian has a supreme ven eration for the fair sex, but when beauty comes in troops and battalions, they yield willing obedience, and be come intoxicated with the perfume of loveliness. In this condition must have been that member who made the following response to the toast of woman : ' He advanced to the front of the without woman," one unanimous vote I A Chinaman on Hancock, and would be recorded for woman," Garfield though some of the members might "What's Your opinion of th res- say they were for man, yet as for me, pective nominees for presidentf ask- give mo wuuittu. auu ju ed aQ Argut reporter yesterday morn- . the world and the rest ot mankind, ing wbile poking his head into the including the mother-in-law.

I hey assert, have done it over and over again, that they are glad they are rid ot their f laves, and M ould not have them back again if they could. The question at issue is, do they lie? as General Barringer charges, or is he a lim? Pity General Barringer finds it necessary, in order to hold the negro vote, to descend to device so foul.

Barringer, the candidate for lieu- tenant governor,is not a popular man. lie is. a man of sense, was i -good confederate brigadier, is a sue cessful lawyer, and whilst he makes a fair speech as to ability, he is not elo quent, he is not persuasive, he is not magnetic. He appears to have been soured because the people of North Carolina did not throw up their hats when they saw a ''confederate briga dier'7 deserting his old allies and friends aud uniting himself with party that was plundering, abusing, and ruining the , people. We have personally respect tor Gen. Barringer, but vef in (common with ninety nine white men in a hundred in North Carolina, can only censure him lor his past and present course. Here is a man who deserted the native whites at a time of great peril . to the state, who does not hesitate - to brand as liars ail decent people who may say that they are satisfied vith the freeing of the negroes, and would not return to slavery if they could.
