Hntni. small ajgns of not going any

encouraging. Most of tho religious

notice on Klmmons, Daniel and
their co-oonsplrators that this kind
of business in politics must go no
further. For one. 1 have small faith
in the opposition being able to cope
with the traitors in harge of the

and thus the d epotism will grow

mo space In which to expose some
of the facts and frauds brought to
light by the publication of what

the returns of the election held In
North Carolina on the 2d day of
this month.
According to tho latest and mos'
accurate statistics there are twelve
counties in the Htate that each have
more black than white votes. Tht
count includes the new county of
Scotland with Richmond, from
which it was formed, by the last
legislature. Reckoning on this ba
sis here are 06 counties in the State.
For convenience and the gratifies
tion of curiosity I will divide those
in groups of twelve each, and give
each group passing notice according
to the instruction gained from an
examination of the facts and fraud
shown in the returns of each group.
lU-glnning with the blackest of
twelve counties I find by the statis

counties in I heir order an follow?:

mast be said that Vane stands above
any other man prodoed by us. He
is the only North Carolinian who,
tine the war, has enjoyed what may
properly bo termed a national repn
tton. He was better known beyond
the United States than aay eitizn of
this State has ever been. He was,
for example, one of the few Southern
men who have reeeived the distinc
tion of being made honor arv mem
bers of the Cobddu Club. Ha was
held in high esteem by tho learned
men from all parts of Europe who
compose its membership, and his
death was appropriately noted by
them.
A noble tribute was paid to Vance
by Mr. Bryan in his book, "The First
Battle' He said that he was "one
of the grandest public men given to
this nation not only by North Csro-
ina, but by the entire country."
That is extraordinary praise, which
the people are better prepared to ap
preciate now than when it was uttered
Hoth because they know Mr. Bryan
better and because reflection upon
the career of Vance has informed
even them. Indeed, the two men
were very much alike in mental and
moral make-up, and the yoanger p
triot spoke of the older with the dis
cernment of sympathy.
Vance's predominant traits were
his devotion to duty ; his modesty,
and his sense of gratitude"grat!
tude,w as one who loved him f aid, "to
God and man for the blessings of af-
foction."
I have placed his sense of dnty
first, because that overshadowed all
his other virtues. This inspired his
loyalty to a trust, which was abso
lute; and so to his party obligations.
Correlatively, he scorned a party bol
ter, but had an even greater con
tempt for the man who ought to bolt
but who retained the benefit of his
party's name while giving aid ard
comfort to tin enemy . Nevertheless,
he was charitable to the last degree
towards those who openly changed
their beliefs when free to do so.
Upon the surface, his most con
spicuous service to the State would
seem to be, either his conduct of her
affairs during the war, or his rescue
of her people in 1876 from a condi
tion which had been worse than war.
But tnose were things which his ge
nius and his patriotism readily en
abled him to do, great as they were.
Far beyond them, it seems to me, was
his stand for principle and party loy-
