This shows how much in t:Mt tho ieople felt in them.

But v.v arc told that the amendments were the children of party effort, and therefore, they should have lK.vr adopted." Kentucky Affairs. The Louisville OourierJournal is about to commit the unpardonable sin of exposing tho ku klux in that State. Hence the Richmond En- quirrr says: "The Courier-Journal is pitching about like a blind bull. First it Make nay While the Sun Shines. ' The Republican party, in the gubernatorial election of 18CS, at a time when it was but Imperfectly organized, and with a large ratio of its voting force entirely unin structed as to the importance of ex ercising the franchise then but re cently conferred upon them by the action of the general government, carried the State of North Carolina by a majority of 18,641 votes ; and, upon the presumption tha't the 8,888 registered voters who did not go to the polls were all whites, the returns show an active white Re publican strength at that time of 20,578 voters. The Presidential election returns of the same year show a gain of nearly 4,000 votes, while the returns of the gubernato rial election of 1872 show another gain of more than 2,400 votes, for the Republican party. It must not be disguised, however, that the disunion party in North Carolina has been constantly lncreasiug in strength in this State since 1868, until in November 1872, when there was a heavy falling off in Its vote. In 16G8,it polled 73,594 votes at the State election, while at the Presi dential election of the same year it made a gain of nearly 10,000 votes; and in 1870 another gain of nearly 3,600 votes. Futhermore, although the Republican party has sustained no general loss except in 1S70, in the gubernatorial election of , 1872 the disunionists made another gain of about 9,000 votes, but losing in the neighborhood of 30,000 in the Presidential election of the same year. ' Now these figures teach us much that should be highly encouraging, yet, at the same time, much that should stimulate us to greater ex ertion in the future. They show that, except in the, year 1S70, when the Ku Klux were striking terror to the hearts of thousands of inoffen sive and peaceable citizens, through the agency of midnight assassina tions, our party has not only been able to hold its own in North Caro lina, but has constantly increased in numbers and influence, and has invariably been able to carry the State by a creditable majority. This, too, has been achieved in the face of such frauds and intimida tions as were never known before in the history of popular elections. Yet, while this is true, it behooves the Republican party to remember that it is confronted by a wily, an active and an unscrupulous foe; His sweetened with the sugar of expected offices and preferments. How the times do change, and how men do change with them. Indeed it is as Talleyrand said, "that a man, who is the same way of thinking always, has simply learned nothing and is a fool.'f But as Galilleo said, Jn spite of de rision and chains, "the world does move," and the folks in it move also, and there is no such thing as consistency in any man, or espe cially in a latter-day Horace Greeley Democrat. - . Now the Beauregard movement is bearing fruits in Mississippi, where the Democrats are coming to the conclusion that the only way to compete with the Republicans is to divide the colored vote. The Mis souri Democracy counsel the same thing, and we may expect to see it tried yet. But how ? Why simply by offering the col ored man more office and more privileges than the Republi cans have done, In the hope of get ting his votes. In substance this is what Beauregard says, and what the Louisiana and Mississippi De mocracy are just now discussing. Will they do it? . They may for the purpose of getting office, for they now tolerate the idea and may embrace it. Remember, they were ready to stone Longstreet and now they listen with patience to Beauregard, who counsels more "dirt-eating" in one lump than any Republican has beep called on to 8 wallow. ; And thus It may come , to pass to them, in the future de velopment of Beauregard's scheme, the truth of the old stanza: "Vice is a monster of so hideous inien.

This is it: The Courier Journal is down upon the ku klux, and its licks hurt in Vir ginia, in Ohio and in North Caro lina, as well as in Kentucky.

Besides, it holds up the present Democratic administration there as imbecile, and tells Gov. Leslie "to wipe out" these midnight maraud ers, law or no law, as their ruffian ism has become unbearable.

' Now, however, is the time to strike the decisive blow that will overwhelm that energetic adver sary with such a defeat as can never be retrieved. Last November the disunion party of North Carolina received a stunning reproof at the polls a-rebuke from which it has not yet recovered and from which it will never recover if the Repub lican party will but take advantage of "its splendid victory. This it should do by immediately perfect ing its organization iu every county of the State; by assiduously enter ing upon the work of pointing out the deceptions which have been practised upon the honest Union masses, who have been seduced into error by too blind a confidence in former leaders of the Uunion party of North Carolina, who have apostacised since the war ; and by disproving as can easily .be done the thousands of malicious falsehoods, and exposing the in sincerity and dishonesty of the thousands of specious promises Mhich have emanated from disunion politicians and news papers. In such counties par ticularly as Chatham, Randolph, Guilford, Johnston, Moore, Mont gomery, Stanley, Harnett, and many others that during the war were union strongholds but which are now almost wholly in the pow er of the disunionists, the Republi can party should see that untiring efforts be made to have its princi ples and policy understood; and to convince the people of its honesty of purpofe, its patriotism of inten tion, and its unsectional devotion to the interests of all parts of the county and all classes of men. The fact shouid be made plain to the sturdy, peace-loviug unionists of the midland counties, who have never faltered in their fidelity to the government of Washington and Adams, that the declarations of the disunionists, to the effect that the Republican party propoeses to make the white race in the United States subservient to the colored race, are utterly false; and that it only proposes to gave equal and exact j us tice to men of al I classes.con ditions, races and colors. Let it be understood that the party is pledged to horwsty, reform, and the perpet uation of justice tvhd union, and hundreds who have strayed away, after the false gods of disunion will return to the ark of Republican safety. . !

To the Editor of the Era : In the Wilmington Star of the 29th of August, the editor of that Democratic sheet propounds the following question, to-wit : After remarking that "Senator Morton had back paid," he asks : "And now, whose : Belshazzarian knees will weaken next?" Mr. WaddeWs I guess, is an answer suggested by a Voice from the Country. , Wilmington Post copy. by the heat and excitements of hotly contested political campaign The enemy was routed-and deniol ished last November.

Butler has com pounded, and taste jo , because i To the Elilor of the Era - As"a workingman and mechanic, I was pleased to read your editorial on the Mil burn wagon in your last issue, September 11. The Xeics of the 13th has ah article in defence of Mr. Wayne Alcolt, the agent of the Milburn Wagon Company in this city, in which it says : " There is no wagon manufactured in North Carolina that has as little "Yankee" material in it as the Milburn wg- on. lne JUiloura wagon uoiupauy is located at Memphis, Tennessee. The factory is located in Southern Indiana. The material, spokes, hubs, fcc., are all prepared at the manufactory, and is made prin cipally of Tennessee timber, &c.f e." This is a poor defence, even if all was as the News says. The Milburn Company may, belong to Memphis, but the factory is not where the News says, but in North ern Indiana, in the town of Mis- hawaka, St. Joseph county, four miles east of South Bend, the house of ex-Vice President Colfax. It is also about six miles from the Michigan border, and ninety miles east of Chicago, Illinois. The wood material is purchased in In diana and Michigan. The lahor is all done in Mishawaka, and there the wagon maker and laborer spends his money and helps build up a Northern town, not Mein- ; phis. The little profit that per haps goes to Tennessee, does . not Justify our people to purchase tho Milburn wagon, on the ground that it is a Tennessee company that manufactures them. Even if it weYe fally a Tennessee company, and the manufactory was in the city of Memphis, what then? Memphis is a long way off and on the banks of. the Mississippi, and not in central North Carolina, therefore we ought to patronize home manu factories and build up our own town and State, before we help build our distant neighbors in a northern or eastern State. . As for Mr. Alcott, the agent, his small per centageon the sale of the wagons, he more than loses in the sale of groceries that he would sel to thos ehe is trying to attarve. i Let the mechanics of North Caro una look to the.r interest. Do not patronize a man ' that does all he can to injure every, home interest to put a few cents in his own selfish pocket. For one, I hope our Leg islature will pass some law to pro tect home industry, in such a way that will prevent a monopoly. Let every citizen, every mechanic and laborer that has the welfare of the city and State at heart, patronize and encourage home Industry, and let all others alone. As machanics we claim we have the skill and the abilitv to supply , any home de mand. Our forests are full of choice material, and all we want is patronage and encouragement. MECHANIC.

Is the Republican ashamed to have his name associated with the "reliable and intelligent" Capt. Avery ? Or does he fear that if his name & given it will turn out that he Is just about as good a Bepubli cn as CaptJ Avery himself is ?

THE granges and back pay " " STEAIi. - - - A well known lawyer, not a granger himself, told me a day since that he was candidly of the opinion that the organization of "Grangers" would nominate the man that would be the next Presi dent of the United States. This gentleman does not think that either of the two present political parties will stand the least showing with the "Granges." I . asked him his opinion in . regard to the pros pects for members of Congress and Senators who had accepted their back pay steal. Why sir, you hear a great aeai or taiK, and see much in print now of days to make the 'back pay" business appear ridicu lous even outrageous. But, my word for it, 'twill all blow over be fore the opening of the next cam paign in this State. I have no scruples about expressing my opin ion and it is that I believe the law clear and just, and if I had been in Congress I wpuld have voted for the bill and taken the money. I then remarked that not a Southern representative had refused to take the steal, nor had a single one con verted his share back in the treas ury. Oh no. I don't blame them. These days of high living and ex travagance must be met and en dured, and our impoverished people would be more than fools if they should have offered Mr. Spinner their share of the "steal." 'I ad mire, said he, General Butler's bold defense, but I hate and detest the hypocracy of that member who voted against the bill but took the pay, and those who took it in trood faith then returned it In order to be popular and get a little newspa per notoriety. you itmt uaneral Grant anxious to ,be his own successor T General Grant is no doubt ambi tious. But I do not believe he will use his power as President to ac complish the end you hint at. -I mver did believe General Grant half so bad a man as my party pa pers represen t him to be. 1 though t last summer, that he was not only the choice of the office-holdt rs, but a majority of the voting population of the country. 1 think lie has nau glory enough to satisfy his ambij tion.and when this term is out, he'll be as glad to retire from the ardous and perplexing duties of chief ex ecutive of the Nation as are some of his enemies hopeful of it to-day. Who do you think the Grangers have their eyes on for President ? J ust now, 1 would not venture a name. . io you think they win se lect a farmer? Oh yes, of course, that is almost necessary 1 Why so ? Because this is a "farmers move ment." But are there not other at tached to it besides farmers ? Of course there are. Politicians if not inside of it, outside will have a large influence in the councils, and will no doubt, politically speaking so far as the organization in the South goes, shape its course. . W hat is your opinion of the organization as to permanency? Well, if they shall succeed in their first presiden tial enort it will be broke in a mil- ion fragments, and you will never find its head or tail. You see, these fellows, " hungry office-seekers," are running the "Granges" for the sake of "self," and as soon as they get inside and begin to divide the spoils, then the jig is up. Any party that is ' created merely for plunder and office, cannot live lona: in this country. But we have to try them before we find out what is their real intention and purpose. These Grangers are going to be very popular, for this reason : Their main strength is now, and will be, played out political leaders and "camp followers," who have had their day in other organiza tions, and are always, as is natu ral, glad of an opportunity to get in a new movement. The election of Judge Craig, in Illinois, was a suc cess for the Grangers, and that movement was in all respects a political coup d'etat, and no doubt it will be followed un pIospIv. T don't think our people will take any too much stock in them. We had our full of secret societies. We won't forget the Invisible Em pire soon. The way the Grrngers are going on in the Northwest is al most at par with the way we con ducted our KIu Klux matters here, and it resulted in our being entireiy demolished. We cannot afford to go it too strong, and too much care cannot be exercised by our people in regard to connecting themselves with secret societies that have the least political tendencies. Do you think they will admit colored people into Granges, or will they organize distinct and separate orders for the black people? If a colored man should apply for ad mission toa Grange, my impression is, that he would be " block balled" unmercifully. I never expect to hear of Black Grange. The negroes are fatisfied with the Republican party, and they have a very keen conception about tliese things more than we crive them credit for. The general run of leading negroes ! believe that the "grange move-! ment" is especially for the disrup- I tion.and disorganization of their I T HE REPUBLICX Believing that the inestimable privil eges of self-government guaranteed by me a eaerai uonsutution involve corres ponding duties, and that among these are sleepless vigilance and the devotion of the best thoughts and efforts of the citizen in aid of the preservation and development of our country and its in stitutions, we have determined, in fath erance oi tnese objects, to establish a monthly magazine devoted to the dis cussion of the science of government ana to a review or political events.

The Republic will insist that the country is not only sale, but safest with its destiny in the keeping of the Republican party; that measures of reform and progress must bo carried forward through its in strumentality, and that its permanent ascendancy should be maintained so long as it responds to the demands of enlightened and progressive public opinion. The Republic will avoid unwarranted censure of opponents as well as indis criminate piaise of friends aiming at that degree of Independence and candor which concede justice to both. It will not waste words, influence, or power by purely negative criticisms, but will en deavor to promote correct action by affirmatively and plainly showing the better way. True, this line of criticism involves thought, care, investigation with the exercise of an impartial judg ment ; but history has conclusively de monstrated that by these means the cause of truth and good government can be best advanced. , The Republic -will furnish a brief and accurate record of events of political and general interest, as The proceedings of Conorresa own successor T t"7?- --, i u The action of States and of political bodies of national import. The progress of material and educa tional development. Decisions of the judiciary of political or hnanical importance and. of general application. The publication leing monthly, the record will be made up after the events have transpired, and will make, at the close of the year, a volume of accurate and valuable information in convenient form lor preservation and reference. ' -, Among the topics claiming discussion will be The relative power and jurisdiction of the Federal and State Governments ; the expansion of territory, revenue, finance, education, industrial school, postal tele graph, postal savings banks, railway and canal transportation, life and fire insurauce, river and harbor improve ments, the public health, reforms in the public service, and the establishment of equal civil and political rights. On these and kindred subjects The Republic will aim to convey reliable information, ex cite thought, and induce action. The writers for The Republic have been selected from among those whose sagacity, judgment, and energy were thoroughly tested in the recent political contest ; and their names are withheld now. as then, for the sole reason that they prefer success through reason, ar gument, and the merit of their produc tions. Moved by these considerations, and subordinating the question of remuner ation entirely, we appeal with confidence to those who, during the recent cam paign, responded so liberally in money, time, and effort, to aid in the introduc tion of The Republic. The Magazine will be furnished at as near cost price as practicable, and will be enlarged whenever the patronage received .will justify increased expenditure. Tlie Republic will be published month ly, on superior paper, in clear type, and will contain not less than forty-eight pages of reading matter exclusive of advertisements. TERMS.

Discharge will be granted from debts mentioned In paragraph I, without reference -to those, mentioned in para graph 2. (See Acts pf July 27, 18G8, and July 14,1870.)' f . , . 4th. The following exemptions are al lowed to every citizen of North Carolina in bankruptcy, to-wit: personal proper ty,' of the. value of. f MO, and real estate for a homestead of .the valuo of $1,000 nnder State laws, and personal property of the valne of $500, under United States laws. Total exemptions in bankruptcy $2,000. , . , ; , , ; The foregoing exemptions are "valid against debts contracted before the adop tion and passago of the RUto Constitu tion ud law uveUiaflioM orfntrcla after tlte ' same, tod sgnnt Uona by judgment or decree of any State Court, any decision of any such Court render ed since the adoption of such Constitu tion and laws to the contrary notwith standing." (See act of June 8, 1872, and March 3d, 1873.) i The recent decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in tbeGeorgla case, declaring the Homestead provis ions of tho Constitution of that State unconstitutional in so far as it rotates has annihilated the Ilomestead and . personal property exemptions in North Carolina.in similar casos,cxcipt through the bankruptcy courts. In view of the demand which mu&t follow the recent liberal amendments to the Bankrupt Act, and tho decision of the Supreme Court destroying tlio Homestead under State laws, I have carefully prepared and had printitl ruled and endorsed in very neat style, all the forms liable to be used in bank rutcy by tho officers of tlie Court or the profession. They will be sold at $1.."0 per duplicate set, and forwarded on re ceipt of price, by mail, post paid, or by express as diiected. To facilitate businesir and promote speedy discharges, it is suggested that the sum of $100, be deposited w ith tho ' petition in bankruptcy, and when so done the Register is authorized and will guarantee that no further sum shall bo required of tho petitioner iu ordinary proceedings, and tho deficiency found upon the taxation of costs will be de ducted prorata from tho costs of tho several officers of court.
