It ia really amusing, and by no means appall ins to contemplate the devices of the enemy to m- crease their chaiices of success in the approach- i. ing election. The Congressional antagonist of Col. Wadde'll. in the Wilmingtonj District, is going back upon the most clearly , pronounced antecedents of his party, fiercely assailing the Civil Rights Bill, a distinctly marked Radical measure, and not hesitating to declare that he ia A Democrat in all the essential J elements of his political faith. If he is a Democrat, what is he doing "with such strange bed-fellows, and why is he allowing himself to be used as ah agent for Radical purposes against the earnestly expressed wishes and broadly defined interests of his fellow-citizens? - The reason is very plain he is willing to appropriate the numer ical support of the negro party to build up his own personal schemes, and having ponie doubt ; of the sufficiency of that support, he is putting in a bid for Democratic votes also. But the Wilmington papers say " that his plana are not at all cunning or infallible; that the sagacious t Conservative voters of the District fully under stand him, and that his Democratic, professions in-the face of his Radical identity will not make him a single vote stronger at the polls. Also in the canvass of the candidates for the Sttperintendency, , of Public Instruction, see what a double game ia being played. In the East the impression ia sought to ! be made that Mr. Purnell is ;an out and out negro worship per, that he endorses their social equality legis lation all the way, and that he will stand by the most ultra measures of their xjlatforiju; while in the "West, where all such political monstros ities are unpopular and injurious to the integ rity of Radicalism, just the opposite impression is sought to be made. Then let. an idependent candidate, like Captain Oaksmith, palling him self a Democrat, set up an opposition standard, and seek to destroy the unity and -enthusiastic . - i . i - . harmony -of the Conservative forces, and see . i - . ; i how the Radical journals pat him on tha shoul der, encourage the manliness and independence of iaction, and exhort disaffected Democrats to cleave to the new .schism. These are some of l -. - j - - - .- . i - - the mgeniocf contrivances by which the Rad ical leaders hope to swell the aggregate of their vote, and bind North Carolina to a perpetuity i . ' it'' of Radical measures and Radical rulers. intimidation, has about playe I out. f The Radical party is- so divided among its - own, supporters, that it requires all the attention of one faction to watch the proceedings of the i other. "Why did Congress refuse the other day to confirm the wretched appointment by President Grant of Shepherd and Hester, the one to ofScial position in the District of Columbia, and the jpther in North Carolina ? Simply because lie nad lost the confidence of Western . Radicals, and they would not endorse him in an improper line of! i i ..... ... conduct. In the same wav. in North Carolina, i . . !..:... . . :.. they are split among themselves; they are closely watching each other's "proceedings, and honest and patriotic men may expect to . get their dues. Besides, the laws j regulating the ballot are now so strict, every citizen' is so familiar with the names and faces of colored voters, and the possibility of practicing fraud ; is so exceedingly slender as well as dangerous, that the conscientious public can rest secure that justice will at least be approximately done in the next election. That our opponents are resorting to such sickly stratagems to destroy our unity as now employ their attention, is an implied acknowledgement of this fact. They know that, if they beat us now, it must be by a genuine," straightout superiority at the ballot- box. No subterfuge, no- fabulous votes,, no reckless threats of United States Marshals,; no pecuniary bribes, in a word, no unfair advan tage will avail them anything. It is a four mile heat, with s impartial judges on the stand, and a cloud of witnesses watching every stride upon the race track, and the swiftest .wins. Under these circumstances with a numerical superior ity of forty thousand white men in the State, it is not difficult to estimate the fearful task which the Radical leaders have ; taken in hand. . highest degree encouraging; to the white people of the State. Great credit j is die to Col. Pool for his denunciation of this negro element in the Board of Trustees of the New Berne Acad emv. The force of his position ' ' i ' I ; : and these aegro -Trustees have - - - . i has been jfelt, been squeezed :the out by it!

But the gameof corruption, as well as that of j COLORED -MAGNANIMITY. The Times of Sunday contains a card from John, R. Good, Geo. B. Willis and Amos York, all colored, resigning their positions aa Trustees of the New Berne Academy, which they say is de signed to show that they have not " a determin ed animus against their fair-skinned brethren. " We wonder what sort of a four-footed, long horned animal, they think an " animus " is something very dreadful, we have no doubt, but whatever) in their opinion it may be, their "fair-skinned" brethren doubtless feel under great obligations and experience the utmost mental relief that these dusky children of the sun are so t7nag)ianirrms V (as the Times ex-; II'- - . presses it,) as to hold back their "animus,''; and thus save the cuticle of the aforesaid "fair-skinned' from laceration. It is really I dreadful to think ; of the consequences that might have ensued if their " animus " had been let loose raw-head and bloody-bones are as nothiijg compared to the fearful bugaboo that i i " i . ' ' - this "animus" might prove itself. YesV whether they think it a lordly animal like the Uon. or a sneaking, snarling one like the hyena; whether it moves on land or water, or ia am- i .- - i " . ... - .- J phibious, our graitinde should have free scope. sTherefore we say, three cheer3 for the Duke of I York, Good and Willis, they have shown their sense, or obedience to party behests, it matters' not which, by resigning their ; offices, and we hope they will manifest their sincerity by never asking for any other. ! Let the : aforesaid Good come squarely up to his work and decline the nomination that he recently received for the Legislature; for we can assure him it is very offensive to the 'fair skinned" to be represen ed in that august body by any man of Jiia colori Then let him get Tucker and Hill . to follow Lave been I making strenuous exertions to 'fur ls i .
