i i a - 4 flA.LfIGII. IV. C. SUNDAY... :.. NOVEMBER 18, 18T9 CBy TEN XI A L CHLEBRATIOXS. A movement j is on foot to bold a world's fair in New York by way of com momorating the centennial of the treaty of "peace with Great Britain. We cor di'ally " approve the idea. The event is "dne every way worthy of being commem- prated, and we know cf no . more appro priate manner than, now, after tbe lapse of a century, to invite Great Britain and all the other nations of the earth, to come , and witness the progress we have made -since that auspicious day when white winged peace visited our snores. . We. will show them instead of thirteen' small States thirty-eight grand common- - wealths extending from ocean to ocean, peopled not by three millions of hardy colonists, 1)ut by forty-five millions of en lightened citizens. We will show them a country so vast and powerful that all Eu- f Trope combined would make no impression upon us in a war, pf . conquest. We will exhibit to them industries not only rival- . ing. But surpassing anything they .have abroad,' and works more extensive and complete than those with which they have any acquaintance. In times past it was our wont to boast of our rivers, "caveaf alls - and - other grand works of nature; we will now-boast rather of our progress in having conquered nature and made her administer . to our comfort, ease and luxury. When the time shall come - we will be glad for our Northern friends to open the ceremonies by a perusal of tbe treaty of peaces JIt !s' an old time docu ment. It Is hoary -with age. But it pre serves the rath. ; In .it will be found some matter bearing upon what folks call - State? Rights. The contest for American . liberty was made under the direction of the Colonial dongressT We had no con- - stituticw nor any compact or agreement betweenthe. 8tates until in November, , 1777, the delegates ia Congress agreed to the confederation. This compact was not adopted by all the States until March 1, 1781 just two years before the war ended. We made the . ght tot the most part . without any arti " cles 'of agreement between the States When at length , we conquered a peace, Great Britain did not make the treaty with tbe American Union, but with each -State, named .separably in tbe written treaty. This shows on what a slender thread bangs the argument of Lincoln and those others who always claimed that -the Union existed before tbe States. . But our purpose, while cordially recom mending that the centennial of the treaty should be observed, is to make another .suggestion. 3 We have bad various cen tennials, but that event which should most certainly be celebreted remains in the future. It is the adoption of tbe Consti- : tution of the United States. This took ; place in 1789. It is by far tbe most im portant of all those great events which render famous tbe closirg years of the last i century. It secured the States against in ternal wars, and established peace be tween them. It quelled in great meas ure the jealousies that were - growing be- - tween the sections. It rendered possible the grand march we have made onward, which now establishes these United States among the greatest powers of the earth. We, of the South, should bear in mind the event to which reference is made, and ' we should urge a due observance of its centennial, as pre-eminently worthy of celebration by all the people of Amer ica, When that time omes, we . ; shall suggest that the ceremonies be opened by reading that clause of the constitution, . which provides "that no State without its -' consent shall be deprived of - its equal , suffrages in the Senate," and that other clause which provides that "no State shall without the consent of Congress engage in , war unless actually invaded or in such imminent danger as will not admit of delay." . These two clauses it would seem show that the Slates intended to preserve their i entity, even to the ex'ent of making war .. '?. upon each other with the consent of Con v gress. They bound themselves merely not to engage in war except by tbe con- sent of Congress until actually invaded. It Is well to revert to these old t hings, and 'bytjomtnemoratitm of -past events to keep therd fresb id our minds. It Is of 'partic alar advantage to celebrate them by en- v terintf into a generous rivalry and exhibit Ing what we have in tbe face of tbe en lighted world. We trust .that tbe Sta'es of the South will, whenever the occasion presents, put their best foot forward, and . show their sisters that we have not been all the while laggards in the race of pro gress. ... -r - The vote in New York at the late elec lion was very light. ; Both parties fell largely behind their full strength : bat tbe Democratic falling off was much greater than that of their opponents. ' p This result seems : to have been occa sioned by the, split.' :! Many Democrats re mained from the pol:s because of the di vision in our ranks. Tbe Kelly strength was beyond any"esilmate( and doubtless his candidacy threw a damper upon other Democrats, who Totherwise would have voted all right, However, we will pick our flints and try it over again next year. It is announced that a movement is on t oot ". to scidL Senator Thbrman to tbe House of Representatives from the Colum bus ' (Ohio) district, where he resides. That ; district ? is now Democratic and though tbe new Republican Legislature will doubtless gerrymander-the State, it is questionable if they can change its politi cal character. ; iir.

English are bringing him to tbe front as the Demo cratic nominee for the Vice-Presidenc All that we know of Gov. English is ex- tremely favorable to him. The Indianapolis Democrat says that the meeting of the State Democratic Con vention, on November 5th, there were present many representative men of the party from all parts of the State, and sug gestions were made" by Hendricks, Mc Donald, Voorhees, English, Gov. Williams .and others. The meeting was enthusias tic for Hendricks for "President: yet as New York had to be secured, and it was thought he could not bold his own there, they thought it unwise to press him for the nomination. It was also foreshadowed that the Indiana delegation would go into.! the National Convention determined upon the most available man; and in case Hen dricks refused second place, then the : nomination of English ' would' be i rged. ? Theameof Senator McDbnaid vtt was said, was not ' mentioned in connection with either place upon, the .ticket. The English boom seems to be supplanting McDonald out there. Gov. English has been interviewed, and the result is what we might expect from bim under the cir cumstances. We clip the followingfrom the New York &zr: j It is his belief that Grant will be , nomj, nated by the Republicans, and that t in spite of tbe corruption and unpopularity ot bis civil adnrnisirai ion ; be : will . be a hard man to beat When' asked what Democrat could be most hopefully pitted against him he satdt a i fr k J I wish I could tell you thaU bjhk I can better tell you the kind of man most likely to beat him. It will be a man of pure life, exalted character, ripe expe rience, free from all sectional prejudices; bold, outspoken and national in hU views, and a man in whom the vast army of bus iness men of the country have confidence. It should be a man who will, not only unite tbe masses of tbe Democratic party, but challenge the support of that large and very influential portion of Independents and Republicans who are .not (inclined 'to support Grant. i r . j Pressed by tbe interviewer to be a little more explicit as to the probable candidate of the Democracy, Mr. English added that, if tbe Republicans put up Grant, "I think tbe chances are our ticket would then-be Bayard or Hancock and McDonald second." . ; j "But would not Bayard's bard , money views be in tbe way," asked tbe reporter, "especially in Indiana t". To which Mr. English replied s V ;". 5' I I ; On the contrary, it would be antlement of strength to him in New York, Connec ticut and New Jersey, and any .votes be might lose in Indiana on that ground would be more than compensated by votes he would get from independents, and espe cislly as against Grant. - Whyt I apprehend that even such papers as your own Com meroial and the Indianapolis Nev, and' others of that classi claiming to be' liberal and independent, would support a great sta'esman like Bayard, with . his faultless record, against Grant, and the overthrow of the traditions pf ' the Republic by the restoration of the Grant dynasty to a third term.-. ' v ' - ; . I He thinks that under ordinary circum- stances New York, as tbe great pivotal' State, would undoubtedly have one of the candidates, but the "deplorable divisions there" render it probable that a man .will be taken from some other State who is most likely to harmonize , , the , party. 1 Touching bis own State be remarked': l ; Indiana undoubtedly stands next in im portance to New York, and, in ' my judg ment, is pretty certain to have a man on the ticket for either tbe first or the second place, and that man will either be Hen dricks or McDonald. , Should - it be Me Donald, then Gov Hendricks will probf ably be sent to the Senate, .which, X think quite likely, would be more congenial to him than any other position. y n ' He concluded the interview by express' ing tbe belief that, with good feeling re stored between the North and South, aa earnest effort to promote tbe : great mate- rial interests of tbe country, and no rash tinkering with finanee, we should be th happiest and most prosperous people ia 2:; CAPT.

' -Egregious Errors In the New York Count. NxwYobk, November 14. The returns f.omalUbe sixty counties in the State, with the exception of four, have been can vassed by tbe county supervisors and sent to tbe State board of canvassers at Albany. Tbe four yet to be heard from, officially, are, Ifew YorkKings,v Allegheny and Greene. HThat tbe entire Republican State ticket, with the exception of Mr. Soule, as State Engineer and Surveyor, is elected, there can be no doubt. Tbe majorities already officially declared being sufficient to establish that fact without Allegheny and Greene,- which rwill stUl further in crease the Republican vote. The ' canvass has developed the.mosl egregious errors on the part af the inspectors in almost every county in the State, whether designedly or not, and more tnckery has been resorted to than' it ' any general . election held for years. For instance, 'in "West Chester county 1,660 persons voted for Mr. Soule for State Engineer, instead of for "State .Engineer and Surveyor," and the county ll caaTaaBers, in pursuance of the law regulat ing such matters, have counted them as scattering. Some Republicans claim when the-returns for West Chester come before tbe State board to be canvassed that these votes will be allowed Mr. Soule, but this is not the case, as tbe duties of the StSte board are purely ministerial, and they can not, like the famous returning boards, go behind ibe returns. The most reliable figures1 show that ' in round numbers the majorities for the various candidates will be as follows : Cornell, Republican, Gov ernor, 49,800; Hoskina, Republican, Lieutenant-Governor, 1,200; Carr, Republican, Secretary State, 4,600 ; ; Wadsworth, 'rfeDQbilcan.f'COmDtroller. 7.700: Ward. iepnbfkauv Attorney-General, 8 000 ; Wendell, Republican, Treasurer, 4,700 ; Seymour, Democrat, Engineer and Survey , or; 10,000 i.Kellj'8 vote, 77,500. Tbe county canvassers met again at the City hall this morning and resumed count ing the election returns, beginning with the Fourth assembly district. Tbe figures varied very slightly from those already published. Tbe ballots in .many cases .Vefe not correctly certified, and tbe inspec tors in every instance were summoned to rectify 'the omissions. " Judge Wa!erbury was to represent the Irving Hall Democra cy. The canvass is going smoothly and quietly. Tbe attendance in the . chamber to-day was quite slim.-' The derelict in spectors of tbe assembly districts already canvassed appeared in a body at the city hall to day. and were taken to tbe Gov ernor's room, where the . committee on corrected returns were in session, and there made inch corrections of irregular ities as appeared on the ballots. The re borns' seemed to be very much muddled. A communication was received from the board of county canvassers,' asking the board to instruct the clerk of tbe bureau of elections to send them copies of the election returns as ' filed at police head quarters, the reason given being that tbe returns forwarded to them are deficient : Albany, N. Y., Nov. 14. Our tables this morning show the following plurali ties: Cornell, -39,172; Hoskins, 1,116; Carr, 2,213; Wadsworth, 7,657; Wendell, 3,237l Ward. 7. 195.-. We have yet to hear officially from tbe counties of Allegheny, Kings, NewYork, Ontario, and West-Cheater.- !-,oS ' -" ; (Signed) 8. C. Hutchiks, Albany Morning Express. Grand Railroad Demonstration Great Enthusiasm Torchlight Procession, Correspondence of Thb Obskbvxb. Ubkessboko, Nov. 14th, 1879. Editor ' Ob9bbvxb: To-morrow the townships of Gilmer and Morehead, whose dividing Lne bisects the city of. Greens boro, vote upon the proposed subscription of ten thousand dollars each to the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad, and to night the city is ablaze with enthusiasm in anticipation of the election. A long torchlight procession, beaded by a band of music, and followed by tbe energetic President of the road, Julius A. Gray, Esq., has just paraded the principal streets. The crowd was certainly strong for the railroad, or tbe appropriation, which is tbe same thing, and tbe mottoes upon thair transparencies pointedly illus trated their feelings in tbe matter. Upon one I noticed a large locomotive, and a picture of Julius A. Gray. Among others the following were conspicuous: 'Vote for the Railroad," "No Railroad, Sell Out and Go West," "Railroad Means Good Wages for the Laborer," and a large picture of a tobacco factory, indicating what tbe road will isduce here, &c. " "After the procession had concluded, the crowd as sembled in front of the court bouse and were addressed by Preiideat Gray, Col. J. T. Morehead, State Senator Caldwell; Maj. Joseph Morehead, and two colored orators. The speakers all advocated the appropriation and dwelt upon tbe advan tages that Greensboro would derive from the completion of the road. It was shown that the tax imposed would be but a trifle in comparison with the corresponding ad vantages; that it would give Greensboro a competing line, one speaker alluding to the fact that a car load of salt was brought to Greensboro for $43, when tbe same was carried on by to Charlotte for $21; that it would tend to promote tbe build-; lag of cotton and tobacco factories - here, recall the absent - business men,' open up tor Greensboro the . vast coal and iron minee ot Chatham, and in fact be the be giaaing of a new era of proiperity for this long depressed city of old Guilford. V JGreat eSorts have been made by tbe friends of tbe road to bring out a full vote. They-: have canvassed tbe townships thoroughly, and have prepared for to morrow hngeV free barbecue, which al ways makes an impression upon indiffer ent voters.
