From wh it I could see I don't think there is any doubt as to the election of the whole Democratic county ticket. Col. Whit- ford is gaining strength every day, and I think the report of the Col.

Mr. Kinsev. the heretofore Liberal, announced himself a Republican. That turn in affairs takes some of wind out of Mr. Perry's sails and I think he will give him a close run, but I think both will run aground and our most excellent Clerk, Mr. Whitaker, will be re elected. Dr. C. J. Mattocks has developed or has shown a new talent. We all thought that the Doctor was only a successful practi tioner, but he makes a most excellent political speech, and one of the striking characteristics of his address is his sound logic and fine reasoning.

A number of negroes had gathered at the house of Geo. Miller, colored, and whisky was plentiful. Of course a row ensued, during which rocks, razors and pistols figured extensively. Mose McMullen received the severest injuries. He was cut with a razor from the neck, through the shoulder blade to the small of the back. The wound is a frightful one, but as no vitals were touched it is hoped Mose will recover. Dr. Meacham of Pineville is attending him. Geo. Miller, at whose house the row occurred,, was struck in the head with a rock.uul his scalp laid open to t the bone.: Zeke Meyer, the negro who killed Peter Rea in Providence two years ago, also, had his head cut open with a rock, No pis tol wounds were received, though it is eaid several shots were fired.
