2d. That we approve of the la t form
ol principles adopted by the said Conven
tion ; it speaks in no doubtful sense, its
language is explicit and meaning char
The issoes presented to tho country are
plainly anduumietflknbly defined, and with
a free and fair election we confidently be
lieve thev will be endorsed by ft large ma
jority of the people; and with that en

as will restore the Constitution and give
peace, harmony and prosperity to the

t States of the South.
3d That it is our earnest desire and
intention to bring about these wholesome
and necessary chaugfe by tho peaceful
means of the ballot box; and all efforts to
produce a contrary belief, coming fjjpm

.. .j --- . ,
of interested partisans of a desperate k
litical faction, bent upon perpetuating its
power by-any means and at all hazards.
They are attempting t alarm ihe people
of this State by the false cry of revolu
tion and war, threatening them at the
same time with military force ; while in
of the South, thev have not
hesitated lo tak from the people the elec
tion of Electors of President and Yicc

4th. That it is our frank purpose now,
and has been, since the cWe of our late

faith and without, disturbance, the legiti
mate fruits and consequences of that war;
to yield to the Government of the United

however bumble, who will not find his

and which policy he and bis political
friends are now vigorously enforcing to

that tho people have the right to conn

they think proper so lo do. That any
citizen of the State, therefore, has a man
ifest right, of which he cannot be lawful-
or cease to employ, any person whatever
when any existing contract terminates
and that any nttepmt on the part of the

9lh. That to obtain success in the ap

To ill it end wo most earnestly iccoui

j the strength of these representation! she
had reluctantly consented to wed. She

he made a full confession to the lady he

IMPORTANT TO BANKRUPTS.
Opinion of Judge Brooks, it the matter of
assigning to Bankrupts a Homestead.
At Cji am units, at Elizabeth City,
N. C, Sept. 4, 1668. In the matter of
A. B. Bankrupt.
By the certificate of Wm. A. Guthrie,
Register, of the 24th July, 1868, this
question is presented : Can real estate be
set apart by the Assignee to to the Bankrupt,-
in case of a deficiency in other pro
perty or effects, to answer the exemptions
provided for by law 1
I have examined wiih care the authori
ties cited by the Counsel representing the
creditors who except to the report of the
Assignee. And I have also read with in
terest the argument filed by the Attorney
for the Haukri.pt. This question has of
ten arisen and given rise to animated dis
cussion in mv presence, but is now for the
first time presented under the provisions
of the Law for my decision. I am well
satisfied th.it a lair and proper sonstrac
tion of that language used in that part of
the Bankruptcy act which relates to ex
emptions, as well as the true spirit and
objects of the Law, will not justify or ao
tliorizc the action of the Assignee in the
case. The terms "other articles and ne
cessaries," as need in the act, cannot be
so construed as to embrace land, without
doing violence to every meaning hereto
foio allowed those terms. It is quite clear,
I think, that if among the property of the
ILnkrunt. none or not eunuch of the arti
cle specifically mentioned iu the act to be
-i - . 1- ri .-.
cxampted bo round, then tne Assignee
mav reoort as exempted other "articles
ana necessaries" to make up the amount
, . 1 . 1 1 " r n n o i ,
required, or me aenc.ency v, mo
may be,) in the opinion of tho Assignee.
Tho whole not to exceed ander. any cir
cumstances the value of Five Hundred
Dollars. The sueecstion of the Counsel
for the Bankrupt would have much weight
if it was a matter of discretion. ' But the
i Court can no sooner award an article or
kind of property, not properly embraced
within tne terms used according to a lair
construction, than it could exceed thesnm
prescribed. The exemptions provide! tor
by the Bankruptcy Act originated from
the same spirit that prompted the enact
ment of our Legislative provisions in favor
of VVidjws of 'In testate, awarding them
provisions for their temporary support ;
and as that law restricts the Commission
ers in the kiud or species of property he
shall exempt. Now it often occurs that
that this all important purpose of the Law
would be defeated, if under no circum
stances money could be exempted to a
ii.uiiii Hi... r-j - - j

ETS arrssATJ, it m W
quite clear, I tbit.k, that money ooold not
be allowed. But it is as clear that moooy
may be allowed, for it not infrequently
occurs that money is quite as eeel-iary
to the temporary subsistence ol a Bank
rupt and his family aa'auy article thai eon

adjudged a Bankrnr
hits surrendered all his property

destitute. Now suppose the Bankrupt
has been a merchant, banker, and has
surrendered a large estate hi "Cboees hi

A. Graham, Hon. John W.Norwood,
Henry K. Nash, Esq., and Hon. Jewish

man is disfranchised, who ever was
entitled to yote.

voter, old and new, rr"r'
in TTortli Carolina, and; 70,000 coler
ed voters in round numbers, a major
ity of 2 tod.
4. Although the whole of the coK
ored vote should be oast against the
Conservaties, (which will uot be the
case,) and 35,000 white votos added,
Seymour and Blair will still carry the
State, if a full rote bo polled.

BAD POLICY.
Wo see it rei)0rted that
Genera!
Wade Hampton and Hon. B. II. Hill
are expected to deliver speeches in
the Northern States in behalf Soy
niour and Blair. We trust the report
is incorrect ; but if not, we join wmi
the Richmond Whig and Lynchburg
JleptiMieaa iu condemnation of ajy
snch policy. We think sufficient
dumage has been done the cause of
Seymour and Blair by speeches made
in the South, without this source ot
irritation right befere the eyes of the
Northern people. It matter not
how conservative may be the speech
es, tlte men are quite sufficient to
arouse the had passions of the Worth
to a point that will result in serious
injury to our prospects of success in
the Presidential election. i
We have no douhthe Disunionists
would pay ten thorwand dollars for
every speech delivered in a Northern
State by Hamptou.Eorrest, Toombs or
Semmes.
If we expect to elect our candi
dates we must bo governed by prin
ciples of common sense. Surely tne
Deniocrajic leaders do not appreci
ate the fate that awaits us if Grant
alected, or they would not conmomw
so much to that result.
We think Mr. Hill and Gen. Hamp
ton had better stay at homo. -
