VISITAS.
From Auburm, Wake.
To the Editor of the Constitution :
A friend who was at Auburn at a
meeting of tbeTilden and Vanco Club
on the 24th August, says there were
about forty persons present, twenty-five
of whom would probably vote for Vance,
the other fifteen being boys. .
The Club was addressed by A. B. Mas
sey, D. W. Johnson, and two English
men who are not naturalized, and one
of whom has not been in our country
more than eighteen months. The Eng
lish were quite severe on our poor peo
ple, forcibly reminding them of their
ignorance, and informed them that it
was this ignorance, that caused them to
vote tho Republican ticket. These men
aremerchants,and eighteen months ago,
one said that "he had drawn the line,
and when a Republican bought a pound
of tobacco from him, he threw it to him
than a love of the old Union, and bo
cause they would not fight under the
secession banner. I wonder if these
devils in human form have forgotten
that thoy burnt Mr. Johnson Caudill's
house ; the shooting of the three Sebas
tians; tho murder of drmuville Smoot ;
the shooting of Jesse Caudill and Ste
phen Hoots ; the killing of Cooper Spi
cer, a poor maimed Confederate soldier,
wltose under jaw was so shattered by a
ball in one of tho battles around Rich
mond, that he was compelled to feed
himself with a spoon, and whose only
crime was his father was a Union man.
These are only a few of the many in
stances of murder and outrage perpe
trated by Vance's men, who claimed
that they were acting under his orders.
There were robberies as well as mur
dors and outrages committed, but they
were perpetrated by these inhuman
fiends, all of whom claimed that they
wam artine under Vance's orders. He

The Century's brought, I make no doubt,
A heep uv curious thing about,
An' jest about tha very queerest,
I'm sartln shore we've witnessed, dearest.
Tly years halnt beep tbow"M ,mu . . -ence
Ireedom's Century begun
But wonders hez been happlhiii' roun'
In country-side an' crowded town.
Oftener an' bigger I suppose,
Than e'er before, fur ea I knows,
When we look back it jest appears.
Theres been a strife betwixt the years,
To see which one should mark the birth,
Of what Is strangest upon earth.
An' taint so easy to tell which,
Ilaz strained surprise t'the highest pitch,
One brought steam-engines! With a laugh
The nex' pulled out the telegraph !
One fixed a needle which should fly
Th'out puttin scandal in its eye !
The next one matched the cunnln' critter.
Replacing grand'am with a knitter !
So too, in politics we've seen
The slave-power, run the free machine
Inventin' year by year some new lie
To prove its right t'the Fourth of July.
An when these would'nt work no more,
Fell Treason tried the cannon's roar,
Till what we'd bragged about so long.
Came true like some strange childish song.
Which was'nt meant to be exact,
But somehow would turn out a lact
And "all" so long translated "few,"
Means now "pore white," an '-nigger toos
A.n' so its kep' a goin' on
One commln' fore another's gone
Till what's impossible, to-day
Ain't no thin' strange nex' week, we H sny
An miracles no more surprise,
Thau that youth loves, or old age dies !
But I saw that in town to-day.
It wasn't much but in its way,
I thought the rarest kind of rout,
My three score years bed brought about.
What was it? Why nothin, so to say
A side-scene, in the world's great play.
Only a man, not young nor old,
Of form and mien, that would be bold,
But for a furtive sidelong glance,
Which scans the looker-on askance,
Like eyes, which from beneath a mask
As doubtful of the screen flash forth to asU
As each familiar face they see
.'I Wonder what he thinks of me ?"
Borne in a chariot, like a god
Whom fokes obey, whose lightest nod .
Is fraught to man with direst ill.
Or rarest bliss, as suits his will !
Drawn by six horses, white,
As that which froze the prophet's sight,
Jvhen Death burst mrougu i" upvw.i.o
seal.
And Hell came following on his heel !
Who was't ? I gathered from the noise,
Made bv a herd of half-grown hoys.
Who strained their undeveloped throats
To hide the childish treble-notes
Not thinking just how well t
That he was bass enough alone
Why this man who was borne
Was only a Democrat candidate !
