It 43 with sadness that we are this weel .compelled to admit onr defeat. We Itav. :becn defeated, bad'y defeated in this coun . JLy. -When we saw so .many men, vrl .had been staunch decvcrat for years n duo to rote tjhc ticket last Tuesday, wi .Vere fearful of the. result; when .we saw democrat vote the republican ticket wt- vam mnrinfipd the nominees or some of them would he defeated. We think we ,underland the meaning of this defeat It is oat a republican victory, true radi cals are elected, bat democrats elocted them. TJ&e o&usw of the defeat of our . nominees is the mode in which the con .Tendons were conduct jd last summer. The democrats of Johnston county are ".white men, in their viens flows tJie pu jrest angksxon blood, they are free thinking, independent men. fhry cttn not he dried I They mill cot submit to the party lash when they feel they have been .wronged. Tba proud spirit of the minor jly wilt net submit to humiliation, they will not acquiesce in the choice of Re convention unless they have had a fair bowing, unless they have , had a voice at least In it. Packing conventions in Johnston county Is wh,at has brought on this result. When wo say packing, wo refer to the case where the voiee of the guinority has been stifled. The conven tions of the democratic party arc no places to ftso political machinery. Every th;ng Plight to be free, and every white man Who is a democrat, who takes the troubV to go to t'ie primary ought to have a voice in the county convention. We do not allude to the county convention when f we ay the voice of the minority was sti ' fled. In that convention everything was free sad fair, 1-utwc understand thst in more townships than one the minority was not even countenanced, that it was not given a delegate and that no man could appear iu the county convention to urge their cause or make known their wishes. The rerult is a suicide. We regret deeply the defeat of out nominees, we Worked for them the best wa could, we used every means in our power to see them elected, we are con vinced the democrats who voted against them have made a woeful blunder, they will ere long ace it and repent their folly. , But wu are defeated only temporarily, we way be partially crushed to day, the whol S nances of the county may be in the hand: of republicans, but we will two years hence rise again. The democratic party will again assert itself. Treason aided in de feating our men, we will kick the tndtors cut of the party ! Stb aniW Tltnmsjrgeon -Morrison atid rnrU-lo are both defeated. -; The two great ti.dii" reionners are de'eated. We da not! undei'stand it unless it means there w a growing tendency toword protection. Car lisle purified the lobbies in the house5 and frowned down the iniquitous schemes of the wen who had so long filled the lobt.es and s! ill he is defeated. Carlisle and Mor rison both defeated, too bad ! too bad 1 ! Wiav isomo Farracrfi Da Mol Sue TnE greatest falling off in- the demo el atic vote m iu Wake count where it will M-ai-h 1.400.

Wake also gives Col. Argo a very large majority. We suggest to our legislators that they put us back in our original judicial dL-liict. Jihnslon gives too large a democratic ma jority to have a republican Solicitor. We ave Capt Galloway over 400 majority, nd still we are to have a republican s-yliei r. TI:U thing must be changed. Wh j knows but that our next soucitir may be negro. If Wake can't do any better than sh did this time vher.; w certainly 1 danger of it. Put us baek wIi m we were before; this is out dire, thu is the deier rai nation of ail the while democrats of thi coanty. They "are not active and indus'riota. They are slothful in everything. Tliey do not keep up with improve ments. . They ar wedded to old methods. C They give no attention to dcUiils. They think small tilings not impor tant. : .. They take no pleasure in t!u-ir work. They regard -labor as a ntixfurtuae. ' ' Tiny weijjh and measure ssiiiiily. The3' are wasteful and improvident. They let their gates eag and fall down. ' They wtli not make wmpoat. ' . They mII hay, grain and straw off the farm instead ol turning them into meat, hvesoand butter, and increaj-ing their suj ply f manure. "... They let their fowls rooft in (rocs. They have no sheltir f.r stock. Th -y do not curry th ir horses. They leave their pkuws in the Celd. They hang the harness in tho dust. Th'-y put off greasing the wagon.

Our able and justly honored eotenipoarj ihe NeKi-Observer in summing up our de fat wisely says: The result of the voting io this district is 3 great a surprise to us as to our red l We Were prepared for a light vote; we were prepared for wme mystification ol the democratic voters by the appearance of iadependeut; we were prepared for the de lection of a considerable nn tuber of demo j , erxta Lecausc of the stock law, and because the new federal administration had not freed the people frem the presence of ih ; taiemal revenue 1 aider; because the enfor cement of the civil service law waa i-ot pepular among the people; and lastly be eause of Influences connected wit i labor organizations. We long ago understood all these things and were prepared for some thing of a shower but we confess that e did not expect a flood. Well but the " flood has come. On a light vote, with many elements contributing to that end, the Jiiocrats of this district have lost their rcpttecataivc in Oungress and have math othef Ideal losses that we greatly regret to : chronicle. But we are strong in the belief Shat tfcee losses only refer to this year, and thai with god orgaoia-d ion ; with time - t!iat proves all things, the democratic p.irty will be restored to its aseendeney iu thedis. trit which contains at hast five Ibound more democrats than repiiblieans.

The largo number of people who attend cd the great Birtholdi Statue uuveiliug and dedication in New York 'ast week were fully repaid for th-ir trip. Th President end Cabinet offii'ers, the entire French legation, and m-ny prominent citi aens were among those wh left Washing ton to t"C present.

The iJea of two such intelligent ora-is as the Loudou Times ami Xtics setting to work to ridicule with irony aud invective the event, the statue, and M. Baritholdi him self, seems strangely inconsistent and in comprehensible. If we may regard the sentimccit expressed in these rather queet editorals, as demotic; it is clear that Eug land's old hatred for France ani j.alous of America, is still by no means dor man 1 nor diminished. The "war ship smuggling" scandal has been at reeling considerable attention, for the past ten days. The ttory, as told by an cx-corporal of the Mariuj (irps, ap pears to.ontain several very edifying chap ters on 1 igh-toned rascality, and which, if tautheni reflect rather ignominoasly on certain high officials of a former adminis tration. Prom the ex corporal's version of the affair, it seems that the U. S. Man of war Stirittcgn, was uswd in 1 SSI, a.1 a means of smuggling from a foreign port, large quantities of Lees, wiucs, silks, etc. ' These articles were consigned to Sceretan then in Washington. "CBin reaching the I United States," remarks the co pond, we did nt put in to an important port, bu: anchured in ilarnpton Boads, and cunse qucutiy v.'ere not troubled by a visit from the collector of customs. A few days af tr our to-rival, the laUnjtot steamed down frj ji Washington, aud cam; along side shortly after dark.

Some days ago, a Navy de partmcnt official, was rigidly cross cxamiu ed by a scrilie, and during the interview said "Thi etatemeut rc;ardinr thesmuirts .ing propensities of our prominent Naval office! s can be voucecd for, and is not tlu spiteful ouipouriiigs of a disgruutled sai lor.
