I .; I i t 'o tibii n ' ' .What is National Greenbackism ? An oufgrowth of discontent The times are slightly feverish politically. In such periods the vaearists always elbow their way into prominence. As much Greenback doctrine as is safe for thr-country is held by the Southern and Western Democracy, and 'Will 'probably be incorporated into the Na tional platform in iSb.0. Vagarists, how ever, will not wait and see they will not even observe what is going on under their eyes. If they wonld, they would cease from pursuing a phantom. There is cer tainly . nothing to be. gained, but every thing can bo lost, by setting up the Green back image in Dan. Now is the time to recare the defeat of the mOney-polists, of the Kasti ' I f ever they can be routed in glorlously it must be under the free flag of the 1 Democracy. There is nothing attractive to a .reflecting man. in con- templating .division in the ranks of th6se ' who hayc ideas, or some ideas, in common on the financial issue. Let the Democratic wing of the Nationals, then, pausesee what their course inevitably leads to. if persisted in, and turn, ere it be too late, back to their true friends -and Ithose with whom they have natural affinity We do not fear that the Nationals; will be strong ' enough to defeat a. single Congressman- in North Carolina' this year. Their strength has probably been exaggera ted. : Yet we dislike to see some good,men assist in a work, the inevitable tendency of which is the recuperation of the dying Rad ical party. That is all. RUSSELL AND CANADA!'. Arcades .amho. Just look at them. Here is Russell, pretending to have left the.RadicaL party he once professed to kvrg so .welland which he assuredly served ' with all hisirrior and ability. Here is ; CanajBay, clinging' to hist old love apparent- , ly with sublime confidence in its power to 1 retrieve its ruined, fortunes. They are doubtless playing, a little game of hide-and-seek. But .like the juvenile amuse- ' ment of that name the hiding is only behind the door or" the sofa.' A very little seeking reveals the whole programme. Judge Ruasell is a sort.f human ostrich, buryinjg 5 his "head in the sand while his i feathers show where the bird sits in fan cied security. A.h; Daniel, you must "come" to judgment." That nomination only brings you nearer to the day oi reck oning. You cannot change your "spots' ; Such a record xis yourp is not easily blotted ou Js it; uncharitable to say that it can never be forgotten ? Recall your acts as ' leader at home' and ir. the Legislature. . Were your political associates men in whom the people reposed confidence? Did you brave the displeasure of Holden and his fellow conspirators in proposing at any time, with earnestness, a more moderate, humane and honorable J course than was ; pursued by the Republican" party ? Were.. you not in full feather with these foul birds of night? I I Questions aside, look at Russell's figure n our District and State politics. "Con sider how he has played adviser-general to the worst men politically in this sectiori hoy they leaned on him, despite his youth and inexperience how until now. he has led xhem in every contest save when Can aday bv Neill McKay perfonnejl that duty. Reflect Upon his conduct as J udge when white men and Democrats stood but slight chance to secure their rights through his rulings and ebifer dicta. ! This morning The Sun does not propose to shine op de tails, but it will do so a little later. S uffice it now to point to theburly figure of"Dan ieL the beloved," late of the Radical party, and how of it as far as any man knows ; to direct attention likewise to Canaday, the left-handed nominee, put m the field by the executive committee. . We'have spoken freely of Russell : let us glance at the other man. Who W. P. Canaday is it is hardly necessary to inform our public. Not that he is an overshadbw ing.figure in our politics. He is an' acci dent; ,Ie plays perhaps the second fiddle, though nominally the leading, violinist of the Radical orchsstra His chief celebrity is due to his shrewdness. He knows how to work up -the colored voter. That is, he did know. We doubt if he can be altogether as successful as .he has been in he past Afi COngressionat aspirant he carries with him, so to sneak, the prestige of fail- ure. He takes around with him the aroma of defeat No man can! successfully face the oddSihe fight3 unless he has political ability of the highest order. How then cari he overcome these odds with ; the memory of past Waterloos lingering in the memory of the people ? - His only use in the cauVass, as far as we can see, is to hold the. truly loyal together until the day .of election, when it is hoped Russell's flank movement with a disciplined corps of Na tional Greeribacfcers drawn from the Demo cratic ranks will have strength enough, united : with the Radicals, to beat Col. Waddell. : Canaday and Russell, fellow-citi?ens. are to be watched. We do not underrate their capacity. : Such as it is, we, as Democrats, must be prepared to cope with it They fight in the dark ; we in the light Never theless, when such adversaries as these are to be met, watchfulness is as necessary as zeal and courage.

OX NEGRO INDEPENDENCE. , - Wddon, Xeteit Deif.oeratie. We are really glad jto,.see the negro population of this District. assert their po litical rights in convention assembled. A repetition of the action of the G.oldsboro convention, in Kinston a few days ago, , is an evidence of what they, intend to do in the future, and in God's name we are with them. t ' . If. we are to have Radical Representatives in Congress let us by all means have good sensible negroes and not tricky white men. Good Democrats as we are. we! are sorry to have seen them so long been made the dupes and tooh of scheming white Radi cals, courted only for their votes and des pised as soon as voting time is passed. A 'small delegation, of whites from Northamp ton passing "through on their return from the Kinston convention i se m-'d quite chop fallen, and knowing how dearly they loved the negro (?) we could not help twitting them slightly. i .- : r ' - ' Tarboro JSoitt tenter.

The Deni- ocraue enieis are very cnary oi ;puonciv expressing tnemseves on. tne subject oi these cipher: though in private conyersar tion they are . sufficiently7 outspoken,- and most of them very plainly say that Mr. Tilden.is dead and that they are glad-of it. In conversation with some prominent Democrats here on the subjcctsonie points were brought out whicharenere with sent you as perhapsof-suffic."ent interest to warrant publication. "I always thought Tilden would make an able "and, indeed, a gr3at President," said one of these Democrats. "His course as Governor of New Yor, as we in the West understood it, gave ipromise- of a vigorous and honest administration, con-' ducted on sound, old fashioned Democratic principles, and a good ' many of us hoped to see him reform the party andjieestat lish it iii a four years administration.'" "AH of us know yerywell, because wc all had experience of it in 1376-7. that 'the work of "tne National Committee during and after the election Was constantly in terfered with by the secret work of these very men Tilden's household friends who now appear in these cipher dispatches. The National Cpmmittee was properly in charge of the conduct of the , canvass, but Mr. Tilden never trusted it. From the . day he was nominated he allowejjthese people to take matters intojthelrbands in a mauher thai was demoralizing and dis graceful, and gave constant trouble to the members of the National Committee. By his permission two sets of men were steer ing the 'Democratic canvass all the time, and his confidence was, given, not to the committee, but to Pelton and the rest of the cipherers. Some of the members of the committee could tell some curious tales on fhe this head if they chose, and I have a1 ways believed that Wisconsin would have gone drmocratic jf it bad not been for the inter ference .of .the Tilden crowd and their promises, readily ma4e but not -kept,-which came i in only to confuse and de moralize the Wisconsin canvass. If ever that story is tuld yon will see that I am right.,, Then we all know what happened during the winter, when Felton and a lot of Tilden's personal friends had rooms at the Arlington and managed for Tilden and suspected everybody, and went about pri- vatciy uvueuug ui .wuiii nicy cuuiu uu auu ) . . . ..... ?retenamg to oe tne only real ongma 'ilden Jacobs. Their couceit was only equalled by their ignorance and capacity for being gulled ; and it was they who gave 'out confidently that Conkling and the Southern carpet-baggeb were going ko come so the rescure of Tilden at the last momemt and overturn the Louisiana deiei sion of the Electoral Commission. I wish' some one, would ask Governor Robinson, of Nek" York, at whose insti nee he made a man named Smythe Superintendent of In surance-! think it was and for what reason, If Robinson would tell, the pub lic would hear a curious story of raisman agenjent and folly."

Maggie Mitchell is nieeting with re markable success at the Grand - Opera House, New York. - . , The Russian composer, Tschkaikowski, has just completed a new opera to be pro duced at St. Petersburg. The San Francisco Ministrels, judging from their large houses, are giving the most successful entertainment of the kind in New York. ;ouise Pomeroy is said to be playing successful engagements in the West, and making a feature of her new drama en-i titled The Adirondacks."

TO THE DEMOCRATW-COXSEBYA-TIYE PABTT 0? X0RTJI CAXO L1XA. The State Executive Commit! congratu-lat-s the DeroofraUc-ConserTUve party of North Carolina upon the result of Hie recent Congressional election at the North. The elections ck-arij indicate, three things which are of consequence to ua : First, that the peo Jie of this country aie disaUs!ie3 with the lltpublican party and are unwilling for the Republic u leaders to afflict us longer with their ruinous measures and fraudulent prac tices . Second, that the N aUonal do not meet with popular favor, and, aa a separate organ! zation, have utterly failed to imprea them selves upTm the country .; and lastly, that the stir of the Democratic party is still in the ascendant, and the people are looking to that party as the only one capable of restoring pnwparity to the country, andble to admin iterthe jrovemment on those Constitutional and juAl principles, which are eswnOal alike to the happineo of .our citiaens and to the perpetuity of our iiistitutioiw. Thu in' the elections "held in eight Sutes the Republicans have lo&t'-twelvw. members of Congress; the Nationals have elected four ; and the Demo-J crats have elected twenty-three, and have rainel seven. " These facts demonstrate that the people in -trnJ to invest the Democratic party with the full control of the National Government The Senate of the next Congres? will be Democratic bv a considerable: majority, arid it is, only n'eceeeary for the Democrats of -the South' to remain steadfast in their allegiance to our or-' conization, and our triumph will be complete. It-is' for us to determine whether the banner OR W hich are inscribed Keconciliation; Home Kill? ATitl Finaneia! Reform, shall trail In thel dut, or shall be borne ou to victory. ' . Everv consideration of intt-rest, ot policy and-ef "patriotism then urges us to prepare Imtnesiately . for the approaching jolitical fetrue-s-ie. t ' ..Be" assured, fellow-citizens, that without praaratioit, it will be impossible to achieve success. - , Let Us not by our apathy our luke warm ness and iudifference jtostpojie the accession to power of that party which alone has been able to "check Republican corruption and to 'arrest the progress of.oer government towards a centralized despotism. - 1 Let us be etcadfast in our devotion' to prin ciple, true to our organization and endeavor by every means to discountenance those inde pendents and disorganizes who oppose our worrhv "Standard-bearers freely and fairly j chosen by the Democrsjic party in Convention In particular, do w e desire to repeat what we have so ofteh urged the necessity of tntjroun local onramzanon. . n is me town . mm,i..- rtl,-.wl with th It is the j mogt i!nporUint of all partv duties.
