Wc are satisfied that the vote of North

North Carolina than in November next

ern white voters, or .Eastern colored vo

cratic success is very good in North Car
olina. I he Radical majority at the test
lection was 19.069, (we quote from the
official returns in i he nlfiee of Gen. Can
by.) in a tnbd of 107,099 vote. There
were 89,774 registered voters who did not
mtie. To what party did these person
belong, and what was ibe cause of their
non-action 1 So far as this section of tbe
State is concerned, by mean of certificate
votiug more negroes voted than there were
names registered, and we believe that, to
oiue extent, the aante is tea at other por
tions ef the Blare. We are satisfied that
twenty thousand and upward of those
who remained at tbe noil were white
Coiiervative and Democrats. Tbe chief
owr which operated upon them waa an
undefined, but controlling, fear of some
ham te person or property to result from
a defeat of the Constitution, and also a
belief that wehould first "get into tbe
Union" snd then protect ourselves from
Radical misrule. This last reason eaased
to vote for th CouaiitatBia who
