/, Federal whiggery, although routed ana deteal-


ed, is preparing TO make fresh efforts IN the ensu-


ing contest; defeat has made them more desperate


in bad cause Have they any new. issues to


tender2 - If NOT, do they expect the peopleato
change their verdict w are certainly willing
to try the old ones over again. popular express
sion in their favor has been too strong to doubt
the result Virginia is the first State in the South
to head off in the duei and the only fear there, is
in having too many candidates tickets.
But we will not doubt the Banner State Of Demo
cracy under, any circumstances or disadvantages.
She has been so long misrepresented by faithless
Rves that she cannot be Indifferent in the contest
Her own dear principles are at stake-the doc
trines of '98 are to be re-asserted-and her proud
name, "that she never cast a Federal VOTE" is to
be sustained. Let her lead off, then; her sisters
in the South will follow her in the good cause
North Caroliniansl shall we not make an effort

the enemy. The time is favorable for vigorous
efort-the President is native of your State
will you not give him trial before you condemn
him? In order that it should be fair one, give
him jury selected by his friends at least, and not
packed by his enemies. This the numblest ci:i-
zen is entitled to. The msdeeds of the last Fede-
raj Legislature also will favor US in accomplish
ing this object Let candidates for Congress,
then, be brought cut in each District in time
men that are able and willing to inform
the public mind, and who stop not TO calculate the
chances Of the battle mcn who are faithful to our
principles, faithful to the country, and tried SOL
ders in the contest. Such we have in abundance
in every District In this, let US follow the ex-
ample of the wings in Gen. McKay's District
they have nominated Mr.. Meares, and he has ac-
cepted, with certainty of being left three thou
sand votes behind his competitor. We can gain
nothing by adopting different course-the safe
rule is to dispute every inch Of ground with the
enemv
