The Republicans of Wake held a rousing Convention in Metropolitan Hall, in Raleigh, on Saturday last. The Convention was called to or der by Jo. W. Hold en, Esq.f, who made a plain, clear statement of his authority to do so as Chairman of the Republican Executive Commit tee of the county. Robert W. Wynne, Esq., presided, and Mr. Osborne Hunter, Jr., acted as Secre tary. . ' Gen. J. C. Gorman, the Chairman of the Court House Convention, now moved a series of resolutions prepared by himself, declaiing the nominations made by said Conven tion null awd void, proposing the must undo fils works of wrong: and injury, rebuild the houses or repay the money and property taken iruiii the people, and then we will listen to him and! not before. 5th'- We also declare that our Jbcst men should be placed in charge of county affairs at the present time, owing to the condition of our finan ces, and therefore we hold also that we cannot support for office or place any man who has been guilty, of placing the county in its present de plorable condition of bankruptcy and 1 worthless pa jer promises to pay,' by which the people -are de frauded and the Court Housed tang ed into a broker's shop for the ped dlers of county-orders' and- Jdrora' tickets, in violation, ,of decency, honesty and the law.

Mr. David Schenck, in the Oth Judicial District, was a member of the Ku Klux. There is no doubt of this, for Mr. Schenck swore before a Committee of Congress that he was a member. Tho Ku Klax or ganization attempted to override all law, and defy tho tin, have been nominated as the Republican candidates for the State Senate from the 2d District. The Charlotte Democrat wants all the public schools closed but still supports Col. Pool, the Democratic Candida to for Superintendent of ittblic Instruction. Capt. W. R. Bell has been nomi nated by the Democrats for Senator from the district composed of the counties of Carteret, Onslow, and Jones. all Judges and officers of justice. This is shown by their horrid oaths and by their more horrid acts. The Democratic party of that District has shown its sympathy with the Ru Klux, and endorsed all their outrages by nominating Mr. Schenck, who openly declares he was a Ku Klux, for the high and responsible office of Judge of the Superior Courts in that District. And every Democrat who cant swallow such a nomination is de nounced by the Democratic press of the State and by Ku Klux leaders as untrue to the principles of the Democratic party. Gen. E. It. Hampton, of Bun- authority of combe, is spoken of as the Republi- to the above facts, except that there ual suffering iitical lines by arraying tne races against each other that the weaker must be defeated. We ask all men to candidly ex amine this subject who have minds open to a reasonable conviction, and see if tho conclusion will not be the opposite of what is intended. Take the en tiro South and the colored pooplo tre lxufc one-half thcfi um ber of the whites. They have, within less than one-third of a gen eration, emerged from a state of slavery in which very effort was made to debase them to the level Of j beasts of burden. Ignorance was the legal inheritance granted them by slavery ; and a code of laws was framed to make that ignorance more profound in each generation.

Tho civil rights bill was passed for the purpose of degrading tho white people of the South; and especially the poor white man ; and now let the white people organize, a . white man's party and accept the issue forced by the negroes and their mean, deceitful political friends."

Mr. Soyer, tho culinary authori ty, tho cook of tho London Reform Club, and a great artist in his lino, goes into this sort of calculation in one of his books the "Modem Housewife" and obtains results startling, if not alarming, to per sons who had never looked at tho subject from an arithmetical point of view. To take a boy of ten years to the top of a hill, as ho takes his mythical personage, and surround him with objects that In tho course of his lifetime he will have to de vour, may be truly described as ap palling. First there are 00 oxen, then 200 sheep, 100 calves, 200 lambs,. 50 pigs, 1,000 fowls, S00 turkey-, 263 pigeons, M0 pounds of salmon, 120 pounds of fish, 80,000 oysters, o,443 pounds weight of vegetables, 243J pounds of butter, 24,000 egg, 4 tons cf bread, and about 3,ooo gallons of tea and coffee, besides tons of fruits, barrels of sweet-meats, and hogsheads of wine. This is, after all, only an outline, j and Soyer assures his readers that, so Air from exaggeration, he has, i from experience and observation, made up a scale of food for the day 1 for a period" of sixty years. iV amounted to 33 tons weight of. meat, farinaceous food, arid vege tables. This statement can peither bo denied nor affirmed without go- i ing into tho statistics, -but it is par- j tially corroborated Uy a gentleman ! who states that for fifty years he i has oaten two eggs for breakfast, j making 730 per annum, or a total for half century of 4G,o00 eggs. This goes for a period of only fifty years, 12,500 better than Soyer, and does not provide for the quantity eaten in puddings, cakes, - desserts, and the like. Where dos it all como from?
