Mr.. Lane. Il is we'll known that this gentle
man was nominated by the Democratic Conven-
tion held in Newbern on the 9th June Being
unavoidably detained ut home, it was almost the
lst OF July before he wus able to take the field


Since that time he has canvassed more or less
thoroughly nearly every county in the district
He accepted the nomination OF the Convention,
with " clear minority of 750" against him; yet
ne was willing to sacrifice the comforts of home
and of private life, and obey the call of his coun-
try. He has borne the battle bravey, and essen.
TALLY contributed to the extension Of the knowI-
edge of the faith he holds. Although his efforts
have not been crowned with the success desired,
yet ne has succeeded beyond the expectation of the
Democratic party, and has so far reduced the ma.
Jority of his opponent TO make it a virtual de-
feat to the wings, and victory to the Democrats.


The Democrats OF the eighth district viii always
remember VIM. K. Lane with pleasure as a
champion noble, independent, and fearless. For
the great sacrifice he has made for his principles


they viii retain him in grateful remembrance and
they offer 70 him their sincere wishes for bis con-
tinued health and prosperity. u IL ,,,,.
