The meeting was organized by call ing John Robinson, Esq.. to the chair and appointing John T.

' During the absence of the committee the meeting was addressed by Friend Ed Copeland, and Friend J T Pearson, who made excellent speeches in sup port of true Republican principles and all the nominees of our late Republi can State Convention. After a short absence the committee on resolutions returned and reported the following, which were unanimous ly adopted by the meeting: ; Whereas, The Republican State Con vention at Raleigh on the 17th of April, 1872, representing the best in terests of all the peaceable and well meaning people of North Carolina, without distinction of race or color, did nominate candidates for the differ ent State offices, which we feel confi dent will receive a large majority of the votes of all the free men of this State on the first Thursday in. August next ; And Whereas, The condition of pub lic affairs at this time calls upon every true friend oT Republican principles to exert his utmost efforts, in a quiet and lawful manner, to sustain the present administration and the men who will use their firm and determined exer tions to promote and protect our com mon interests ; therefore, Resolved, That the action of the State Convention held in Raleigh on the 17th of April, commands our hearty approv- alt and we hereBy record our pledge to use our best energies in securing the success of the entire nominations of the Convention. .

Frank Wishartins Body U found Middled With Ralls. . ; : ,?ya letter received by a gentleman of this city yesterday, which was con firmed by passengers on the Wilming ton, Charlotte and Rutherford Rail road, yesterday afternoon, we have the sad intelligence of the death of j Col. F. M. Wishart, of Robeson county; who was murdered by the outlaws on Thurs day morning. We give the particulars of this bloody tragedy as far as they have come to hand : . It seems that the outlaws sent a message to Col. Wishart in the early part of last week, endeav oring to make an appointment to meet him on Tuesday, but for some cause or other he declined to accede to their re quest. They subsequently met him at Moss Neck and requested a private in terview with him, behind a certain building there, which he granted, on onriflif lrr hf l-io cVinnlrl rnoot Anrlrmxr Strong alone, and that Stephen Lotvrey should keep at a distance. He was in- ormea oy Anarew troug tnai ne ana he other outlaws were tired of their present mode of life and were desirous of agreeing, upon some terms of surren der. .With this object in view, they wished to meet him (Col. Wishart) pri vately and freely ana fully discuss the matter. Finally, at parting, Strong intimated that they should send for him in a few days, and urged - him, when requested to meet them, to obey me summons. j "Thnrwrlaxr mn minor fir.t Wishart A M .

In response to this request he left Shoe ward3 proved, into the very jaws of death. Thursday evening his body was found at the Spot where the inter view was proposed to take place, which, by the way, is near the point where Stephen uavis was Kiiiea. xiis wuuuus were four in number one in the head, two in the body and one in the leg and from their appearance it would seem that he and the outlaws were in close Quarters, probably engaged in conversation, when the cowardly, treacherous fiends seized their aavan orro onri mnrlp a. simultaneous and mmviornna acsmiif iinnn thpir brave ana chivalrous, but, as the event has prov- ed, too connaing aniagomst. i Poor.

The dele gates from this city, however, avent there thoroughly organized and backed byJ the outside rabble who could be procured for free lunches and railroad passes; they were old political ring masters who had manipulated Conven tions by disreputable instruments be fore ; and they were animated by an other desire, which was to promote the interest of their own faction and to de stroy the opposite faction. They sim ply made the Cincinnati Convention a continued chapter of the old quarrel between Greeley and Murphy, and the result is simply the triumph of one lo cal political ring over another. ; It is no surprise to those who know the animosity and determination of this ring, which went to Cincinnati in Mr. Greeley's interest, thaf so small a knot of men were able to control seven hujidred delegates. They were thor oughly organized and had their f 'strikers" ready lor any use. Cochrane and Hutchins and the other "reform ers." who have been apt scholars and teachers by turns in the gutters of New York politics, were ready for any emer gency. When a State was without delegates, they had. their tools on hand to is wear that they represented it, al though they, like Rocky Moore, were honored citizens of the Five Points or Mackerelville. A correspondent in Cincinnati, who ought to know, writes us that the Alabama, Arkansas, North Carolina and South Carolina delega tions were packed in that way. Maine, New Hampshire, Georgia, Mississippi and several othecStates were undoubt edly manipulated to suit this wretched ring. By "outside pressure," by threats and by cajolery, where their usual tricks would not do, they suc ceeded in forcing a bargain upon men who were not so well organized, and stuffed their favorite style of political leadership and their pet candidate down the throats of the Sincere and honest men who went there with a good purpose. Is this reform ? On the contrary, it is the triumph of a corrupt faction, which is organized simply with the purpose of private revenge and public plunder. N. Y. Evening Rost. Ku Klux Democratic Nominees. The nom?ees of the Ku Klux Dem ocratic Convention at Greensboro' are not as available as it seems might have been chosen out of the party of "wealth and intelligence." ' ' i Judge Merrimon doubtless has talent, but he has a record, which for incon sistency and bargain-and-saletlveness, stands unrivaled. He always claimed to be a Union man and invited Col. Geo. W. Kirk into a Union meeting at Asheville. Notwithstanding this, in 1868, for the position of Supreme Court Juflge, he deserted every principle whinh he had advocated in the past, and linked heart and soul with Ku Klux Democracy, . he has time and again volunteered nis services to ue fenld Ku Klux criminals.

A Doctor was sent for at once, but Mr. H. Proflatt, who went for the Doctor, says he did not think Marshal Keith could1 live until Dr. Houston got there. Duyck is a Ku Klux. It is reported he has been skulking about in , the mountains for sometime. ., j f' -' -r-. P. S. Since the1 above was written we have received a letter from which we make the following extract : - - Asheville, N. C, May 6, 1872. Sincd I wrote you our county has been sTiruVlf with the sad news of the death of onAofour snecial DeDutv Marshals, C. N. Keith, who was shot while attempting to arrest a Ku Kiux in l ancey couniy.ouj Thursday evening. I have not yet learned the particulars ; however, some other Dep uties have gone to see him. What I have learned of the matter I will tell you : OnT Erwin Duyck was loafering and scouting around in. YanceVcountv. Keith was pass ing through that county, and had a capias, rant, for him, and when in about 50 yards of him, Keith halted Duyck, when Duyck turned and commenced firing upon Keith. Keith, by the time Duyck had fired th first shot, commenced firmer lao ; noth par ties werA on tneir horses, and rather advan cing towards each other. About the third fire from Keith's pistol shot Duyck through the shoulder, , the ball making its ;way through the lungs and lodged close to nis back bone ; and about the fourth fire of rtimnli- Vaifh was alint in at nnn siiiA. and the ball passed through his 'bowels, and I think went, clear tnrougn ana ouu How ever, neither of the braves stopped at this, but advanced on, and fired every shot that was iri their revolvers. Friday night news was received that Keith was dying. Fri day morning Duyck was spitting up blood, arid expected to die, every moment. I have had no news since. Keith was a neighbor of mine, and was? as good a young man as ever our county produced. . Keith shot JJuycK witn a large navy pis tol and I guess he is shattered very much. p. s. Since the above was put in type, we learn that Keith is dead. . Suicins with A Grape Vine Orange Court. The Hillsboro Recorder of the 9th, says Mr. John D.f Wilkerson, a worthy and most estimable citizen of- this county went out Tuesday -morning of last week, a mile from his house, made a rope of a grapevine, climbed the tree and tied it, fixed the noose around his neckband jumped off the limb. He was swinging dead when found. The good man had been under mental aberration for some time. , : . . . . Alar that.. .Tiide Toureee opened his court on Monday last, at 10 o'clock. The case of a colored boy charged with assault upon a colored girl with intent to commit rape, was taken up and the court assigned Maj. J. W. Granam as counsel for defen dant. The plea of non compos "was made for him, but he was found guilty and sentenced to five years in the Penitentiary. The State vs. William S. Sheilds, for an assault upon W. D. Cole, found guilty and fined ten dol lars and cost, i , The State against Flera Hall a colored woman indicted for child murder more than a year ago will probably be ; continued on account of the absence of one of the pris oner's witnesses. : I - i On the Civii Docket, a very important decission was; made by Judge Tourgee. A motionwas made to amerce the Sheriff for refusing to levy and . sell a tract of land, hon-contigious to the home tract, which had been assigned and laid off to the defen dant as a Homestead. The counsel for the plaintiff contended that the act of the' Gen eral Assemoly of l6-:ey allowing uuu contigious tracts to be assigned as Hoine steads was unconstitutional, the court sus tained the point and granted the motion, the defendant, appealed to the Supreme Court J : - ; '. If this decision is confirmed by the Su- Court, it will create a flutter among i , the Homesteads. Life Insurance.
