Thb apparent purposes jmd the action of the Aw Convention, assembled in tho City of Raleigh, on the 4th day of September, having met the open ..approbation of many Republicans in the State, giul'raised serious apprehensions of discord in the pnrw, the undersigned beg the indulgence of their fellow-citizens in submitting the following views, and exhorting all truly loyal and Union men to harmony and unity of action, regardless ot the temporary and accidental prevalence of injudi cious and unfortunate counsels. The UJfioN Republican Pabty of the nation must be relied upon to settle our present troubles and to restore the lately insurgent States to complete harmony with the General Govern ment ; and to render Buch restoration permanent, to prevent a speedy renewal of recent strife, and to guarantee the future safety and integrity of the Union, that party has assumed, as a basis of reconstruction, certain fundamental principles, the establishment of which, as the popular senti ment of the voting masses in the lately rebellious States, is held as a condition precedent to their bein' admitted to the exercise of political powers in the nation. It must be borne in mind that these States are to I restored not merely to being governed them selves, but to the exercise of equal powers in gov erning the whole conntry. They rebelled against the Union, and waged a war for the establishment of certiiin principles of their own until they were sub dr.i'd bv those in whose government they now seek to I ninde again participators and equals. Before lxin raised from the condition of the vanquished au.l restored to thcj rights and powers of govern or, it is not unreasonable that they be required t renounce the principles for which they waged tho unsuccessful war, nnd accept such as are now prescribed as essential to tho general peace and welfare. 15r.t, in a3 much as the people themselves, and not the States, are the real repository of politw power, it is required that they give evidence of a popular renunciation and acceptance, in good fnith, and not merely a temporary acquiescence from exjK'dieucy, in order to recover the power to renew the late strife and revive a lost cause. Re construction lias len delayed only liecanse of their failure, so far, to manifest such a disposition, a:id for the establishment among them of a pre virling sentiment in accordance therewith. The preparatory policy of Congress has been conduct ed step by step with this view. Its first step was :'iit for a voluntary manifestation in the elec tions ordered by the President. But adverse c-n:iscl having prevailed in thoso elections, the ' ( on.stitntional Amendment" was proposed for their voluntary acceptance by which certain prin ei' ! were to le incorporated in the Constitution itself, and a sufficient number f individual citi zens supposed to entertain hostile purposes were to lie excluded from the exercise of political pow-. ers to give to the well disposed the ascendancy and Control in public affairs. This proposition was rejected by guch majorities and in such a spirit that it was considered to have become no cessarv to crente a new political element in the rebellions States by conferring the elective fran chise uHn the colored jiopulation, and to cstal lish military governments for the maintenance of oU'dience and order while the spirit and disposi-Wvabd tion of our jeople were leing again tested. In this condition of affairs we are now called upon to act. The principles sought to be established upon the sound basis of popular sentiment, as prelimi nary to reconstruction, may be fully summed up in two projiositions, viz : 1. A faithful nnd willing adherence to and sup port of the Union and of the government of the Tinted States and a quiet submission to its au tl. n'.ty under the Constitution. H. Ch il and political equality among all citi.ens, irres ctic if race or color, and the protection of white and rulured alike in all the rights, privi leges and immunities of citizenship. The- arc the principles of the Union Kepuh- lican 1'ahty, and are tlie only test of a true, witiniiol rcjniJiUnin. Our restoration to the rk'iits nnd wwers appertaining to a recognized State in the Union, awaits and is dejiendeut on the establishment of these principles as the pre vailing sentiment of the people. The government has refrained from executions for treason, from banishments and from confisca tion. It does not now suspend any threats over ns ; but appeals to a voluntary sense of returning loyalty and duty. Tho masses of onr people who have lcen so long excited and muded, seem now disposed to yield to reason and justice. It is the duty, and should be purpose of every true Republi can" in the Suite to encourage and advance this disposition of the jieoplc, not only by inculcnting the great principles of " Union and Equality," but by removing every obstacle to its progress. Our adversaries have retarded it in North Caro lina, not ffp much by reason and argument, as by appeals to sectional prejudices and misrepresenta tions of the purposes and designs of the Repub lican Party upon distinct and collateral points. Theyhave charged that party with the design, 1st. To confiscate the lands of those compromised in the relcllion to be parceled out among the col i ored citizens ; 2d. To perpetuate the disfrancluse- uient of the whites from the ballot box, while the whole of the colored men are enfranchised, and ' thus sec ure the political supremacy of the colored race in the Southern State; 3d. To continue the otlieial disabilities now imposed on native citLiciis of the Stnfte, and thus, in effect, place our gov ernment in the hands of strangers who have lately st tiled among ub for the puq)osc of becoming our rulers. These unjust charged have bad much t lTict upon the uninformed masses of the ieople n;:d have raised up apprehensions and hesitancy een among the most steadfast friends of tho r Union. The fear exists that thejlored vote can I le controlled against all native citizens in favor of those who can parade military services in de stroying slavery, and having themselves no inter ests to 1 endangered by confiscation, may, the more easily, delude the illiterate and credulous with vain hopes of having the lands of their iicih!)irs parcelled out among them. Such iip pe;ils to the colored population would inevitably pr .dneo alienation and prejudice lietwecn the i:' c, fatal to the establishment of a safe and w h.iic'uiiie pul.lie sentiment, and dangerous to the peace and good order of society. That these apprehensions might !e quieted by having the position of the party upon tbei and other points distinctlv and unequivocally set forth ami promulgated in North Carolina, it was deem ed expedient and proper that a .Convention of Repulp :nns should be called to meet in the City of Raleigh, on the 4tU day of Scptemler, 107. The Convention was accordingly assembled; but its action was not such as was hoped ami expect rd. Jt was, contentedly, unfortunate that after the courtesy shown to recent settlers from the North, by making A prominent olitician from the, State of Ohio, (Col. lleaton,) the tenqtorary Chairman of the Convention, they should have de manded, anil by appeals to the colored delegates on tho ground of military services, secured the rejection of one of the most prominent and worthy of the native Unionists of the State, (Gen. Dockcry,) and liave placed in his stead, as permanent l'resident, a stranger from the State o New Hampshire, ((Jen. J.C.Abbott,) a gentle man previously unheard of by the masses of our people, or known only as an officer from the fede ral armv who had recently located near Wilming ton in this state. It is still more to be regretted that the colored sjHakers from Wilmington and its vicinity, seconded by a gentleman from New York, (Col. Reck,) in ndvocnting tho election of Gen. Ablmtt, should have used lan ? gnage suggestive of purposes calculated to in- en use previously existing apprehensions. They paraded the military prestige of their candidate in lighting Hgainst slavery, while they reproached the native citizens of tho State with struggling to HT;n-tuiite it, and cliargod Southern Union men with lu ting either from cowardice or from a hope I" save their slave property by terminating tho war short of emancipation. Tho effect of these "Pl"''ils upon tho colored delegates was manifest ed by the excitement and enthusiasm with which they rejected the counsels of the more considerate New Series. of their own race, and of one officer, lately in the federal service, (Gen. Laflua,) who met only re proach and insult for raising his voice in advocacy of moderation and prudence. The election of Gen. Abbott as permanent Presi dent of a North Carolina Convention, was follow ed by the election of, four Secretaries,' two of whom were strangers lately located among us, and two colored men. It could hardly be ex pected that the Congress of the United States would be likely to view the action of a Convention so controlled, as expressive of the true sentiments of this State, or the success of a party under it as affording sufficient evidence of the temper and spirit of our people, to justify the restoration of the State to its rights and powers in the general government. But an effort was, nevertheless, made to quiet the public mind by committing the party in this State, distinctly and authoritatively, upon three points, to-wit : 1st. Against the purpose or desire of confiscatingprivate property for political of fences in the present condition of affairs ; 2d. In favor of providing in the State Constitution for the extension of i the elective franchise to every white and colored man alike ; 3d. In favor of the removal of official disabilities from true and loyal ciltizens within snch limits as Congress may deem safe and prudent in this State. The " Committee o$ platform and resolutions," after full and pro longed deliberation, reported to the Convention three resolutions emlxxlying these sentiments, and recommended their passage. But these resolu tions were met by a repetition of excited and im mjoderate discussion, and voted down. It was unfortunate, that the rqotion upon which the first of the resolutions was rejected, was made, not by any native citizen of the, State, white or colored, but by a prominent politician from the State of Olhio, "(Col. Heatnn.) The other two were reject ed on the motion of a gsntleman from New York ((pol. Peck,) now resident id Wilmington. On' notion of a native of thq State, by birth, but who n&w is, and has been for ' some thirty years a resi dent of the City of Washington, a plan of party organization was adopted, so repugnant in its de tails, to the customs and usages of our people, aiiid so effective in the hands of any who might sek to place our government in the hands of strangers by controlling the colored vote, that it cannot fail to excite additional alarm and distrust. I Northern gentlemen should le encouraged to settle among us by extending to them every court esy and kindness, and by discountenancing the ro viival of prejudices, which should never have ex isted, and ought now to lie forgotten and buried forever. But while our .people are willing for recent settlers among ns to participate in our pul lile affairs, it is not natural that tlnjy -should view with favor, the appearance, even, of an effort to place their government, entirely in the hands of strangers, to the exclusion of those whose infor mation, interests and experience so much better filt them to understand and manage the manifold rate rests and exigencies connected with our pre sent unfortunate condition. It must appear to ttc people unkind and unjust to take advantage ojf their helpless condition, by exciting appeals aad delusive promises to the most ignorant, and most unsuspecting and docile of our population, and thus raise up enmity and antagonisms among uis, ruinous to the colored man, for whose rights and welfare every good citizen is now solicitous, destructive of the efforts of those who are laboring to prepare the State for a return to the Union by bringing the popular mind in cordial .unity with the great principles of the Republican Farty. ! It cannot be expected that a Convention in this State apparently controlled by such influences and distinguished by such action can command the approbation and confidence of the people of North Carolina. But it is advised and hoped that no tjrue Republican will altamlon the party or alwite his zeal in support of its principles, because of the temporary and accidental ascendancy of ill advised nnd improper counsels in a tingle assemblage. Rather let our adherence to and support of the Republican Party l increased and strengthened, that by the triumph of its jolicy, we may see the Union reconstructed and confiscation thereby ren dered imHssible the '"Constitutional Amend ment" adopted and universal suffrage under it tjhc fixed law of the land and the official disabil ities removed from every one who is true to the Ipnion and who discountenances all efforts to keep llivc animosities and prejudices threatening to tlhe peace and integrity of the nation. ; Let the cople meet in their respective counties and districts, by their own spontaneous action, and out forward their own candidates men true tjo the Union- nnd trustwrothy as Republicans and by supporting such, manifest to the nation that in North Carolina there exists suchaprevail- ibg sentiment of nationality and such voluntary lence to the laws of the land, that our rcstora- ion to rights and powers in the government, so far Irom being dangerous to the peace and welfare of he Republic, will add strength to the great edifice f Union, Liberty and Equality. I By requiring each candidate to announce un equivocally his opposition to confiscation and his desire for the admission ot even white and coloreo man aliko to the ballott box, the people may pre vent the itruorant and unsuspecting colored citi- icn from temg deceived bv vain promises of land donations, into an attitude of hostility and conflict ! , 1. 1 T L. . .., Ill,,,,, , , 1 n l ,A1 1 c f . a 1 1 1 ...

After a satisfactory State Constitu tion shall have liccn framed, should any true, ll'nion men, under official disability, le elected to anv position. Congress will, doubtless, remove Inch disability in each case, in defference to the wishes of a true and loyal constituency, and thus protect the people against a transfer of their gov ernment to the hands of strangers. I low ever much the conduct and spirit of the late Convention may lie deplored, and however much ft may have increased previously existing appre hensions, it is yet in the hands of the people to pro tect themselves at the ballot box, and to secure a Restoration of their rights, and of prosperity and pence, bv co-operating with the Union Republican Party of the nation in the support of such mea sures and the enforcement or such laws as have feen adopted for the security and preservation of the Union.

K. LOSIER, Principal, jul 19-ly. Baltimore, Md. PROSPECTUS OF THE "WT.STTTR.'rT mTRiYMTfTr.T'. Lincolnton, North Carolina. To the People of Western North Carolina: Ine loyal Union party of V estern North Car olina have long felt the need of a thoroughly loyal Republican paper, to advocate their claims, and contend for that freedom of speech so long denied ns by the enemies of the Union, who, when their cause failed, scarcely hoped that their lives would be spared, now encouraged by the " policy of Andrew Johnson, use every means in their power, by falsehood and misrepresentation, to make our friends in Congress believe that no loyal element exists in the State, and that a general am nesty is necessary to insure cace and quiet to our section ; w hile the truth is, it would be the initiatory step to Bcenes of crime and bloodshed. The people, we say, of the Western portion of the iState have long suffered m public opinion for the want of a sound, unbiased loyal press to refute these vile slanders and hurl back the abusive epi thets bestowed upon us. We propose to supply the desideratum, and earnestly ask the co-operation of every true lover of his country in our ef forts to aid in securing peace, justice, liberty and equality to all deserving those inestimablo privi leges. Let every man put his shoulder to the wheel, and we shall soon see again the taws of our country obeyed and its supporters honored, instead of the open grumbling and undisguised hatred of that particular class of rebels, who, while support ing with all their influence the cause of their mis taken and ambitious leaders, yet took very good care to tret theninclves into fat offices somewhere in the rear of the contending armies. In the absence ot ready money with which to embark in the enterprise, we proixse to our fel low-citizens, one and all, the following plan by wnicn a paper can oe estaniisneu : xt every man subscribe and exert Jumstif to tJte. utmost to ob tain sub.tcribers and tJie money in advance, and as soon as we get .H) names with the accom panying $2 each, we shall at once purchase the requisite material, new from the foundry, and, at the earliest jossi!le day, issue the first number of the pajier. We have conversed with several pro minent gentlemen, and have received assurances of their aid and support. Let - every man do his part, and the work is accomplished. The paper will be called the WESTERN CHRONICLE, and will be a thoroughly Union Journal, and a staunch supporter of Republican principles. It w ill lie mailed to subscribers at the low rate of Two Dollars per annum, which was the old-time price of a weekly newspaper. We place it thus low that every family may take one of tlieir own, and not depend on ljorrowing their neighbors, as well as to encourage onr colored citizens-; who now have equal rights before the lavy, to know and understand the events that are transpiring around them, and whose duty it is to see and read for themselves. We pledge that the Chrotdcle shall be a paper that every man may read with proiit to himself, both white and black, if they love their country and her laws. The Publishers, being practical printers, guarantee the general appearance of the paper, while the Editorial Department will reflect whatever judgment and ability they may possess.
