Glory Enough fob. Onb Day! The election passed off quietly in. this city; nothing occurred of an unpleasant nature, if except the glorious fact, that the Conyen tionists didn't feel very happy as the after noon approached they saw, knew and felt, that the people had not been hood winked into their revolutionary scheme, and that, in their might and power, deter mined to kill the viper , in its infancy, (For returns, from this precinct and coun ty, see another column.) Never did a party work as did ' tho Conservatives. They brought ' in voters from every nook and corner in the Township men who liave been living hero for years, and who said they had not registered and voted since the war I They invaded the Peniten tiary, and mustered forty hirelings from that .pen, and voted them, many of . them if hocZalvt their residence in other counties, but said tills Township was their home ! And notwithstanding all their efforts, : this precinct polled a majority of FOUR HUN DRED AND SIXTY-FIVE AGAINST CONVENTION. This was a finishing Ktroko tho Conservatives looked sad, and drooping; and with the additional returns from other precincts in . the county,1 the light of day" was shut out from the eyes of the Revolutionists, and into their tents of darkness and wickness, they crawled, whipped and dispirited. The miserable charge of the Sentinel that the negroes voted in the country and then t-amo to town and repeated is simple false, and as harmless as It is wicked, and may be pardoned, inasmuch as il was the last, expiring gasp of the Conservative Rev olutionists In Wake county.

Saturday night last and the day following this locality was sufficiently rained, for which our people seemed very grateful. eadcr rood, John W. Norwood, Esq., of Orange, has been selected to deliver the address before the Agricultural Society, at the next State Fair in October. TriE MOST DABI2TQ BUEQLART anil TO I bery, perpetrated in our city for several" 3' ears, took place at the residence of Jordan Womble," Sr., Tuesday, 1st instant, just at break of day. The house was entered on the lower floor, through the passage door, and the robber went to the bed side of Mr. Womble, and took his clothes, which were on a chair; and deliberately took a money purse, and contents, (190.00) and was in the act of departing, when Mr. W. aroused, by some noise, mado by the villian, sprang L from his bod, and as quick as thought pur sued, and fastened on to the fellow, while yet in the passage. A scuffle ensued, and the robber, with some instrument, dealt Mr. W. a blow on the forehead, which felled him to the floor. The robber escaped with his booty. - Mr. Womble's wound is of the nature of a cut about two inches in length painful, though not dangerous Dr. E. Burke Haywood, was sent for, and dressed it. 'Squire Whitaker, with an' of ficer, was sent for, and the proper steps taken to bring the delinquent to a hearing. It appears, that within a week's time, the residences of three of our best citizens have been entered by burglars James M. Har ris, Kemp P. Battle, and Jordan Womble, Sr. These are but few of tho depredations, however, committed recently within" jmr ity limits, and up to this writing, our po lice have failed to make any arrests. We think a few hundred dollars paid to R.! B. Craddock, of Richmond, ,Va.; to come and reside in our midst a few week?, wftuld! be money well spent. . What is t6 Become oy them T Tho Telegram and Era will have run their course ns soon as the election is over. Both can be liought cheap . as dirt. How much for the two organs, one the 41 people's" and the oth- or the office-holder f Iloden has been with them both. - ' Nichols Jc Gorman, and Billy Smith, who voted 200 negro women will make a new de parture,and a desperate effort to shake Hol ilcn ofLSentineL ' So far as Nichols & Gorman, and the Tele gram are concerned, if we were to give it away, it would be a more valuable i ac quisition to the donor than was the Sentinel office of Mr. Turner. The types and press on which the Telegram is printed, were bought with the hard earnings of the pro prietors. They were not bought with bor rowed money ,and no man has been defraud ed out of one cent in their purchase. iNo suit has been instituted to recover $5,000, which might have been borrowed to become owners thereofland whether we give it away, "or sell the Telegram, it will be our own property which we dispose of, and no one but ourselves will derive profit or loss by the operation. Are we understood T i eiegram. We trust the Sentinel will have a good time over its party pap, sucked and wrung from the hard earnings of the people of North Carolina. In the language of Holy Writ, we say unto that paper, " Eat, drink and be merry Cor to-morrow you die "yea, verily, to-morrow a few more moons, and all that remains of the Sentinel newspaperwill have passed away into utter insignificance-too remote, to admit of a thought of con tempt. ' The Era, will live ; it will live,as the principles which it advocates are' as lasting as eternity itself! It will live by the pat ronage and tho love of a people who know their rights, and dare maintain them ! It will live when tho last enemy xf a Republi can gov ernment will bo buried so low and so deep, that tho hand of resurrection will never reach him! It will live as the advo cate of Constitutional liberty, and the hater and persecutor of Ku Klux and revolution ists, know by what ever name I It will live, to watch the enemies of the Union, and to hunt down and expose tho very men who now predict its death ! Snarl ! snap ! growl ! La-sh your sides and gnash your teeth with rage ! Tho Era knoweth not fear, nor will it cease to expose the meanness of tho ene mies of this glorious State, and this proud and gallant Union. The Ku Klux arrested in Johnston and brought to this city last week and held to answer, were not arrested on political grounds, as charged by the Sentinel. The cock in the Morning Star crowed for victory a little before day the Bantam of the Newbern Journal of Commerce echoed. Our advico to these two chickens would be, don't roost quite so high ! - Better Laugh than cky." Acting upon this principle, the sprouts about Ral eigh who expected to wear Republican hats and boots, feign to smile over their bad luck. But the grin comes with many inter nal pains. If little knots of lillipution minded states men avaUeth any thing, "the State will be saved f Beardless boys, with "cigars to match" knot about the city, and counsel as to what shall be done next, to get rid of the Republican party. WeNean't help slim ing ; though we know we "hadn't oughter." The responsibility of our defeat rests up on the three hundred timid white men who failed to go to the polls on yesterday. Goldsboro' Messenger. , The idea that there are timid white men belonging to the Conservative party inv Wayne, is enough to provoke a smile on the most rigid countenance ! A RATTISNAKE IN THEV " HORNETS' Nest." The Charlotte, Bulletin has the fol lowing snake item. 44 A tolerable sized Rattlesnake was at tacked by our junior oi Wednesday after noon, on our premises, and after a short en counter his Snakeship was conquered by the application of a hoe blade. It is dangerous times among children when snakes have the run of the city." The Messenger learns that during prayer meeting in the Methodist church at Boon Iill, on Tuesday ever.ing last, l'ghtning struck a tree near one of the windows. Mr. Wm. Langley, who had is head in the win dow at the time, and also Mr. Kedar Whit ley and his son, and a lady were stunned by the lightning, the first three very badly. Mr. Langley was some time in coming to his senses ; the flash had passed over his head, leaving a high ridge from one side to the other. J uoe Moore. The Charlotte Democrat of AUgust 1st, says of Judge Moore : Judge Moore has been holding, during the past week,1 a special term of the Superior Court for Mecklenburg. The court will be con tinued for twovor three weeks longer, with the hope of clearing off the civil docket. We never have any business in the court house, and of course do not idle away time by listening to the lawyers and Judge ex pound law, but wo have-been informed by several of the lawyers that they are pleased with Judge Moore. One of the oldest mem bers of the bar said he made him think of old times, and a good old plain farmer re marked that ; If, we always had such' a prompt Judge as Moore, the lawyers of this section would soon be out of business.

A Remarkable Couple. CoL Zeb. Mor ris of this county, says the Charlotte Hoike, married to his present wife on the 13th day of January, 1814. They have raised 12 chil dren, 11 of whom married. They have lived the whole period of their married life of 57 years, on the farm where he was born, 85 years ago. : It may almost be said of the ven erable couple, as it was of Moses of old, that their -44 eye is not dim, nor their natural foreer abated. " He keeps the finest horses in the county, and can ride 40 miles a day with but little fatigue. He is an elder in Philadelphia Church, of which his son-in-law, . tho Rev. Mr. McDonald, is Pastor. The venerable couple aver that there never has been a jar between them. Take it all and all, where can such another history be found 7 I Have you heard from Mitchell county? : . 7 , j . - j' I A Fact that Cannot be Denied. In conducting the campaign of the election just held, the journals of the last Legisla ture could not be had from which to expose the extravagance of the Conservative Legis lature. Th,e Public Printer either had not finished his work, or he purposely witheld them from the public ; and notwithstand ing this, that party have been ingloriously defeated in North Carolina. - 1 i Free Train Offered to Emigrants for Salt River. There is a rumor about town, that President Smith telegraphed one "gay and - festive neighbor," one day last week perhaps Saturday, asking at what time would the defeated about Raleigh t be ready to accept the offer o$a free train t to take them "up Salt River." Have'nt heard the reolv. It was a cruel joke. I inasmuch as they are all hatless, and can't go "bare headed." i ' ' .' ; ' j' Quere? How many hats can be purchas ed at the head of the Saline waters? The Warranton Gazette of the 29th ult. says, "On Sunday night last, some thief or thieves entered the private apartment of our friend and neighbor Walter A. Montgome ry, Esq., jwhere he was sleeping with a lamp burning in the room, and abstracted from his vest pocket sixty dollars in money, his hat and Sunday coat. It was doutbless the -intention :of the party or parties to get pos session ot the key to the money safe, which is keptMn the office. Dr. Willis Alston's roonTand office being in the building and adjoining room he was visited and relieved of his pocket change, amounting to about twenty dollars, together with one or two articles of clothing. All attempts, so far to obtain any clue asto the perpetrators of this daririg robbery, have proved vain and futile. '.if Township Officers. The following named gentlemen were elected as Raleigh Township officers by a handsome vote: Magistrates W. Whitaker, Qucnt Bus bee, S. D. Harrison, Ross Pcttiford and Norfleet Dunston. Township Clerk John E. Williams. School Committee J. P. Adams, Mingo Croom," Joseph Watson. Constable James A. Porter. Another Writ of Habeas Corpus. On Tuesday last B. S. Buchanan, sheriffj of Jackson county, was taken down $o Frank -linton to fippear before His Honor J udge Watts, on a writ of habeas corpus. It is al leged that the law, as it now exists, Joes pot apply to Buchanan's case.the defalcation having taken place before the enactment of J the law making it a penal offence. We have lot heard the decision of his Honor. I f Since Vrrlting the above, we learn that fudge Watts vacated tho proceedings against Buchanan as had before Judge Boyden, and upon his own warrant, held Buchanan to bail in $5,000 for a violation of the laws of 186S-'G9. Judge W. gave aa his opinion that the law passed by the last Leg islature, in regard to sheriffs, was uncon stitutional. The attempt of the Goldboro' 'Messenger to explain the cause of the late riot in that place, is a most complete let down.- We are perfectly well assured that the cause of the trouble cannot bo traced to politics, and we are well assured that President Stanly in all he did and said, acted eminently cor rect, We decline, most respectfully, 'to bandy epithets with the Messenger. , Goldsboro Township, according to the Messenger, voted for; Convention 350, iio Convention 510. Wayne county,' according to same authority, has repudiated the coun sel' of the Messenger and' voted against Convention by about 150 votes. Brogden and Pearson have nobly discharged their duty. " j ''.; - . Gov. Caldwell remained in Goldsboro' on Sunday week. Many of his personal and political friends called on him. Soma of the "hot spurs" addressed his Excellency a note asking a business interview, i Gov. C. very kindly intimated that the Sabbath was not a day for the transaction of busi ness. The Governor acted in this matter as becometh a christian . gentleman. The Messenger berates the Governor for observ ing the Sabbath day. to keep it holy.

Answer to com plaint not being of a satisfactory nature, the matter was placed in the hands of Constable Porter to close up, by dispossessing the de fendant, and placing the plaintiff in posses Bion'of the said property. jWe have no hesitation in expressing j our ppinioh that the tale as told by the Times is in strict accord with the real facts conriect- with the unfortunate occmrence.

But the Times says : Lit appears as we learn from a reliable urce that a colored man was going along the streets and being intoxicated was some what disorderly, and a policeman attempted to arrest him ; the man attempted to elude him when the policeman fired at the man who was in a crowd, and the shots were let go iudiscrimately. The culprit, howeverj managed to escapo ; the reckless firing by the policeman created considerable excite ment and much feeling was exhibited. The police again cot on tho track of tho dis orderly man and captured him, and while going into the Exchange Hotel the extited crowd there attempted a rescue and isuc ceeded. i - The policeman sought refuge in the s Ho tel, and immediately agrin came out with a drawn pistol and exclaiming: "Get away from here, you d d sons of b s," fired his pistol, one shot striking an old colored man standing some distance from the immedi ate scene of the disturbance, killing him al most instantly. The policeman again sought safety in the HoteL the doors of which were Immediately closed and fas tened, and the crowd, who became still more exasperated, clamored for the posses sion of the reckless policeman, A fire was immediately opened from the Hotel win dows in the crowd, some fifty or sixty shots being fired, which took effect in but three instances throe men being wounded,! one seriously and two slightly. Not a single shot was tired by the crowd. The police man escaped, and several prominent gen tlemen arriving on the ground, used their influence in allaying the excitement and causing the crowd to disperse, i Hon. Wm. F. Loftin and Edward R. Stanly, Esq., doserve especial mention for their efforts in this respect, their exertions going far toward restoring order. - j: j We have heard tho actions and language of the Goldsboro authorities severely com mented upon, their indiscretion, surpine jiess and cowardice exhibited was criminal, and the opinion was freely expressed that the disturbance of yesterday was more than anticipated, and that an understanding par tially existed to create a disturbance in or der that the meeting might be broken up. Fortunately however the fight in no ! way interfered with the meeting, it being some half a mile from the sconce of the disturb- -a a a ance.
