Notwithstanding the financial panic of lH7o the Republican Ad ministration has carried on the National Uovermnent most success fully. With the crushing effects of this panic ana with the revenues largely diminished by the repeal of taxes it has, by vigorous econemy, paid all demands upon the Treas ury and reduced the public debt nearly Five Millions of dollars for the ilscal year just closed. Nor is this all. The Republican Congress, resolved upon all possible retrench ment, has cut down the appropria tions for the next year by the large sum of Twenty-Seven Millions of dollars. These are facts that cannot be denied.

His arrival in the Dis trict at once produced fear and dis may in the ranks of the Democratic wo live. Purnell possesses all the elements necessary to make a good I party, and his opponent, Mr. Jesse and eflicient ollicer, while Pool is PTEing in syuqiathy for the colored rrrHdrcn, many of whom may suffer from his prejudice, if elected. Cast your vote for Purnell. Voters of tho 4th Congressional District! remember that if Davis Is elected the material interests of the poople will suffer. If Headen i elected he can have great influence in aiding to obtain appropriations for the benefit of our section. Davis Will be a mere automaton, and can Yeatcd, left that side of the 8ound soon after Mr. Cobb commenced tha canvass. Mr. Cobb has met with a full, hearty welcome from his Republi can friends, and in fact, we have never seen so much enthusiasm and patriotic feeling manifested on any lormer occasion uunng a congress ional canvass. Detenu i net! to hear Mr. Cobb, as often as I could, I went to Jamesville, in Martin county, and heard him speak there, and at Hamilton and Windsor. I am frank to confess, that having heard so much misrepresentation in regard to our candidate, I feared he might not be able to clear up some of the charges made against him by lt T i ... - who, while they were the willing participants of his generosity at Ap pomattox and since, have been so violent in their defamations of him, drew many a blush.

The prospects in Orange are very encouraging. It is coniidently be lieved that Headen will receive a better vote in the countv than has ever been given to a Republican candidate. The discussions of to day and yesterday made many votes not only for Headen but for Ruftin and the county .candidates, who oppose the part izan bitterness that have so characterized the lead ing Democrats of Orange, like Cal vin Parrish, Ksq., Democratic can didate for the Senate, who, by his seech of to-day endeavored to en gender, and who was so ungrateful A A . . 1 as to assault so nttteriy ana so air raud, of bringing into the United States, or with like intent, attempt ing to bring into the United States, dui table articles without passing the same, or the package containing the same, through the custom house, or submitting them to the ollicers of the revenue lor examination.
