Northern Republican pipers and orators are fond f declaiming against what they call "the violence of the Southern Demo- crat3." Wc would like for the New York Times and Tribune, the Washington He- pub'ican, and the Chicago Intcr-Onan, to copy the proceedings of the North Car olina Canvassing Hoard, published else where. The .action of the Hoard moder ate,, prudent, and perhaps more than ju.st ' to the Republicans, is a full answer to all. this declamation. It is an -illustration of the spirit of the Democratic party in the South. An easy matter it would have been under the 1 tv to have assumed jndi- dicial functions and throv. n out the irregu lar returns from three districts, electing bv thy forms of law Ye.ites in the First, AVaddeli iu the Third, if not Kitchen in the Second District. It would likewi e have-hecM 'easy to liavc disregarded Judge Seymour s lnjuii' tion. l.ut such men as eonipo.ve the- State (.'-..nviissiug Hoard and th great D.-inocratic muss behind them would not do tlie.se things. Not only the forms but' tin; spirit and essence of right amleouity as conini.-mly uiTderstood jinustbe in tue result, -declared. Party advantage is ds.iegaidrd. it is atimned .... that the JSt-.uril may act only iu a minis- terial capacity may smipiy count up the returns and declare them. ly taking this "course, one, .perhaps two Congressmen are lost to the party, leates nui.-t go to the House of Representatives if he would se cure his seat. . Now,- Tiik Six mentions these facts to show how groundless is Republican clamor, not for the purpose of criticising the action of the Roard. The Hoard .'had the benefit of the best legal talent, and it decided with great-deliberation points about which there had -been sonic differences of opinion among lawyer.-. In this decision Tiik 8r.' acquiesces. In our judgineiil no paper can get along well without correspondence. It has been the life of some of the best papers in the coun try. To--.lay it is the life 'of the New York Ihmhl, which is happily able to let its correspondents write by telegraph. It was the leading feature of the old Petersburg Ej-jirtss a paper which had several thousands of subscribers in North Carolina. One of the chief merits of our Raleigh con temporaries is the news-letter feature. Letters and special telegrams indicate more than enterprise they show interest in the journal whi:h prints them exhibited by those who send the news. Correspondence may be overdone, but overdoing is better than underdoing in so important a matter. The intelligent reader asks for the news the latest news. Few men now-a-days will be satisfied merely to have a paper to read without exacting that it shall bo a live paper with all the fresh- est news of the day in it. The 'agc is brisk and only the brisk people keep up with it. Interesting correspondence is always printed in The Si x, which prints the news l ot the day. Let our mends in Aortn ana I South Carolina remember this; and act in V accordance with the hint conveyed. We A bicir enrrPEnnnilncp. Alrpnilr Tits" Sl'V has a number of gentlemen retained to give it information on all important matters, V Let U3 add that local correspondence of even simple local interest will be printed in this paper whenever the subject matter is not objectionable CONGRESS. The last session of the forty-fifth Con gress began yesterday. In the present Congress the Republicans have a majority in the Senate which in the next will be wiped away. The Democrats will have a t good, working majority in both houses after Vr1ie 4th of next March. From 1S57 to 1875 there was no Demo- I cratic Speaker of the House of Represen tatives. There had been really no Demo cratic majority for twenty years previous h to Speaker Kerr's election in the latter i ' rv e c ii. r l : f juai, as vrr, ui ouuiu vaionua nos cicvku L by a minority of the nouse. The prospect I therefore of a cool Democratic mttjority in Congress is as pleasing as things usually get to be in this mundane sphere. Accom panying this feeling of gratification, how everts a sensation of uneasiness on the part of some that there may not be sufficient ability, in leadership to steer the party through without accident. We hardly share this latter -feeling, although, we apg predate ths dangers to Tvhich the party will be exposed and recognize the apparent lack of cohesion. It will be necessary of Course for the Democratic members in caul ius East and West, North and Soutk - to arrange whatever differences as respects the financial oisesticii "that exist or may Thereafter arise. It most be aumed that this vrill be done. It is a necessity of the situation. THOSE CIPHERS. The Washington Post says that a. ma- j&rity of Democratic members who had arrived in Washington were iu favor of investigating the cipher telegram business, no matter who mav be .dam- aged. This is the right position. Ixt the alleged telegrams be examined by the Potter or some other committee, and the bottom facts ascertained. It will hardly hurt anybody fare those who have been so persistently clamoring for for investiga tions of "Democratic. irregularities.' The Dcmocrati are readv ; are vou ready Mes sieurs Republicans ? . . Political investigations have not as yet amounted to much.. Hut this one might contribute to the store of -newspaper wit.

Leaving the city by the sea, Tuesday morning last, on me o ociock tram, i ar rived at Lnmberton at TO: 10. Nothing of interest transpired on the route. I found Luml)erton much improved since mv last visit; several fine buildings stores and (hvellings having gone up.

Here I found all the store closed and the peopl'e generally observing the day. There being no church building here, the Presbyterians held meeting in a private hall. Sitae Heel is a thrifty town, the people being' wide awake to catch the first glimpse of the al mighty dollar. They, too, complain of the dullness of the times, but are working and hoping for the return of more .prosperous days ; which hope, I trust, will ere long be realized, for thev deserve this reward for their labors. At the boarding house ot Mr. W. H. llarker, I sat down with many others.to a dinner which would compare very favor ably with the famous dinners spread 'upon Northern tables on this dav. Everything that the most robust or most delicate ap petite could crave was there, and in abun dance ; and I hereby forewarn all travellers on this road that, unless they wish to get top full for utterance, not to goto Marker's. The train arrived here at 12:1 ;", and we were whirled on to I.AURI.VBIRO. This town has also tnuchMinproved since my last visit. Everything here, seems to bear an air of activity and enterprise. The people here are noble-hearted, and vie -with each other in making a stranger feel J at home. Jhauksgiving was generally observed, and there was preaching in the Presbyterian Church by the pastor, Rev. Mr. Cable. The Methodist minister beiHg absent at Conference, no. services were held in this church. ' So far on my joorneV, 1 have found that the Si x is highly appreciated.

The State Executive Committee congratu lates the Democratic-Conservative party of North Carolina upon the result of the recent Congressional elections at the North. These elections clearly indicate three things which are of consequence to us : First, that the jeo ple of this country aie dissatisfied with the Republican party and are unwilling lor the Republican leaders to aflliet us longer with their ruinous measures and fraudulent prac tices. Second, that the Nationals do not meet with popular favor, and, as a separate organi zation, have utterly failed to impress them selves upon the country ; and lastly, that the star of the Democratic party is still in the ascendant, and the people are looking to that party as the only one capable oi restoring DrosDeritv to the eountrv. and able to admin ister the. government dh those Constitutional and just principles, which are essential alike to the happiness of our citizens and to the perpetuity of our institutions. Thus in the . 1 . . . : 1. . i 1 ; . , o i 1 it: have lost twelve members of Congress; the Nationals have elected four; and the Demo crats have elected twenty-three, aud have gained seven. These facts demonstrate that the people in tend to invest the Democratic party with the lull control oi the National Government, the Senate of the next Congress will be Democratic by a considerable majority, and it ise only necessary for the Democrats of the South to remain steadlast in their allegiance to our or ganization, and our triumph will be complete It is for us to determine whether the banner on which are inscribed Reconciliation, Home Rule and Financial Reform, shah" trail in the dust, or shall be borne on to victory. Every consideration of interest, oi policy and of patriotism then urges us to prepare immediately lor the approaching olitical struggle. Be assured, fellow-citizens, that without preparation, it will be impossible to achieve success. Let us not by our apathy, our luke.warm- ncss and indifference postpone the accession to power ot that party which alone has been able to check Republican corruption and to arrest the progress of oer government towards a centralized despotism Let us be steadfast in our devotion to prin ciple, true to our organization and endeavor by every means to discountenance those inde pendents aud disorganizes who oppose our worthy standard-bearers freely and fairly chosen by the Democratic party in Convention assembled. In particular do we desire to repeat what we have so often urged the necessity.-of thorough local organization. It is the town sh'p .committees who are charged with the most important of all party duties. To them is committed the duty of supervising the election, and of devising means to bring out every Democratic voter to the polls. They ought to meet frequently and advise and take counsel together how best to promote the for tunes of that party, on whose success depends so largely the prosperity of themselves and of their posterity. In every township, in every neighborhood, there ought to be appointed a committee of active, efficient, and prudent party men, who wifl undertake to 6ee that every Democrat in the precinct comes to the noils and casts his ballot for our nomlneee. We therefore urge this upon the townhip committees ; and if in any township it Is ne glected, we appeal to our Democratic friends there to 6end their conveyances for all their neighbors who otherwise might not attend the polls. Let M be clearly Understood in every locali ty that he who fails to vote for our nominee, gives half a vote to the Kepubliean party, and that the Conservative who easts his vote for an independent is taking the surest means to break up and destroy the only party which can give relief to our atllicted country. We warn our fellow-citizens that great e.nds can not be accomplished except at the cost of some inconvenience, and often through the sacrifice of our personal preferences ; and wc appeal to every man who has the good of the people at heart to give a portion of one day to his country, and subordinating hisv individual preferences, cast his ballot for the-nominee of the Conservative party.

There is steady improvement. . (New Yokk Would.) Deserves the support of all Southern readers. (New York Sex.) ' Wc wish success to, this interesting enter prise (Weldox News.) It is a magazine of merit and we wish it much success. (ClIBOXICLE AND CONSTITUTIONALIST.) It richly deserves the cordial support of all our people. (Biblical Recokdek.) It is printed in large, clear type and is a credit to the State. . (Gkeexsbo'ko Patkiot.) It is ably edited, handsomely printed, and gives promise of being a very, very interesting publication. (ELizAnETii Citv Economist.) Altogether creditable. Its contributors are first-class and its mechanical and typographical execution excellent. (II iLLsiiouo Recokdek.) ' Its list of contributors is an an able one and if sustained , will ensure the permauent success of the enterprise. ' (Wilmington Post.) It is a first-class literav magazine, and one that the people of this city should be proud of and-patronize, as well as the people of the whole state. . (RAi.Eion Observer.) It is needless to say we wish it success, and that we look forward with pride, ; as well as pleasure, to the r rsult of the entrpiae as one that will reflect honor upon the State. (Oxford Torchlight.) The typographical execution of the magazine is very nne, ana in point oi appearance, con tents'and indeed in all respects it is a publi cation which mut commend itself to -the public. . ; (Graham Gleaner.) It gives promise of being eminently worthy of public patronage. - No commendation of ours would equal a simple statement of the table of its contents, with the names of the contributors, which we give as an evidence of ot the worth of the periodical. (Farmer and Mechanic.) Here we have a rich bill of fare from South em writers, catered by a Southern lady and printed by Southern printers, on Southern paper. Ye who bewail the lack of Southern literature, and home-fostered talent, shall mis enterprise live, ana expand? (Wilson' Advance.) The mairaziue is well p-otten un. Th h iect matter is varied aud tntertaiulnor whilp ibs typographical appearance is a model of neatness, and reflects the highest credit upon the- exquisite taste and excellent judgment wiui BUKK-esicu ana aireciea its consummation (Norfolk Virginian.) This publication appeals to the people of the' oouui ior a fcuapie support, it richly merits it and wc feel will receive it. We know of no souinern literary venture that has exhibited so much merit, united with an evidence of management that must win for it a position in the ranks of magazine literature and hold it. (Petersburg Index & Appeal.) The South-Atlantic has this merit over any of its predecessors in the same arena, that its contents are solid, though not heavy, and that no room appears to have been intended in it for productions of a trashy and frivolous character. While it continues to . adhere to this rule, it will have every claim on Southern and general support, and we sincerely trust it will receive it. (Danville News.) This is a most excellent publication a mag azine of high character, an honor to the 8tate, and a credit to the whole South. All its pages are filled with articles of superior excellence and interest.
