As Chairman of your Executive Commit-,
teei I tender yeu our sincere congratula
tions upon the glorious victory you have
achieved.
Notwithstanding the overwhelming de
feat you sustained in the last Presidential
Selection, you now carry the State, electing

where we 1 -rge'y reduced .the majority
against us. '
It i-3 true that in this contest vou re not
unmindful of the record of the Republican
party consisting of so many grievous evils,
among whicii we may enumerate :
1 The great corruption that existed
among the leaders of that party.
2 The fraudulent misuse of legislative
power to fasten on our people a large and
appressive public debt still unprovided for.
3 The sacrifice of the State's interest in
nearlyt nil of her public works.
'4; The protection of our system of intern
al improvements. .
5 The corruption, imbacility and mal
practices of many minirters of the law,
who turned our courts into ensrines of im
pression and mocked at justice, disgracing
me nigti places heretofore adorned by the
most illustrious names in the history of our
b 1 he denial to many of our citizens
many of their dearest and most sacred
rights, the free use of unlawful means to
cary elections, and other invasions of the
liberties of the people. .
Yet the chief issue presented in)the can
vass was one recently forced on us by our
pol tical adversaries namely, that arising
vim mguio jjiii. . A measure
fraught with the most direful
to all of our people and especially to the
laboring classes, being calculated to arouse
tue worst passions of the two races, to de
stroy the peaceful and even fri
tions existing between them, and to inaug-

with the elective franchise; while its social
features are violative of the dearest rights
of frefcnen and in direct conflict with the
principles of local se',f government declared
in thQ Constitution of the United States.
' But. the people of North Carolina have
now-, with a clear discernment of the right,
spoken in such thunder tones in condemna
tion of 'this odious, iniquitous measure, as
will forever close the1 mouths of its avowed
champions amongat us. As far as we are
able we have averred the impending calam
ity. It rests now with the Republican par
ty in Congress to s iy whether this measure
shall be forced on you notwithstanding
your protest.
The canvass being o er and ihe victory
won, let us in the hour of Ollr Pvnltotilnn
with a frankness and liberality characteris

accorded us bv those
having followed the fortunes of their pai ty
under delusive promises, or . from previous
animosities and groundless apprehensions,

Ana as a r-pty to the appeals made to
the fears of the colored oeonle that.thpir
rights would be imperiled by our success,
we assure tlfem that all their privileges now
guarantied them will be respected and
faithfully observed and that their inter

the insiduous influence which must result

The President, contrary to his usual cus

to Washington this summer. It is under
stood that, without something of, unxp4-ted-importeance

personal presence here, he will continue to
transact the official.buisness pertaining to
his office at Long Branch, and that he will
not be here until he returns permanently

taction is expressed at the protracted ab
sence of the President by politicians and
others anxious to see Mm, and who do n-1
find it convenient to journey to Log
Branch. It is believed by many that one
of the motives influencing the President in
remaining away from Washington is to es
cape the politicians. At Long Branch it is
