As the correspondent of fhe HeRap passed by Barnum’s Hotel this morning the celebrated Colo- nel Yerger, of Mississippi fame, was pointed out to Aim, sitting on the balcony. Being {ntroduced, he found this redoubtable duellist to be a large, stout man, with small feet and large head, a sort of side- wise mouth, whose obliquity was concealed by his mustache and goatee, and his head was covered with ringletted black hair. He had a light, whitish gray eye, and he converses with considerable fu- ency and affability. It was not difficult to be ap- prehended that Colonel Yerger belonged to that c of Southern fire-eaters, now nearly extinct, who were quick to put by small points of logic in bap obev i and who make the minor premise of free ussion @ duel or an affray, and the conclu- sion, perhaps, a tragedy. neatly attired, and although editing a small even- (ng paper in Baltimore, is said_to be poor and not as wel reciated here as MM had hoped. Time, which makes all things even, has given him, how- ever, acueuate in this city and the measure of his future life will probably be whatever success he may achieve in it. inwilling to say anything to this gentleman upon the subject of the death of Colonel Crane we were relieved by hearing him introduce the topic himself as “his great trouble in Mississippi.’ He said that he had been a Union man in that State to the last and was the last Union candidate for Governor, supporting Bell and Everett. He published the Missi Jackson, the State capital, in op- position to Barksdale, the edigor of the Clarion. At that time, Colonel YergGT said, he had issued some sort of ' letter of explanation which em- bodied his views upon secession as a miserable ge of policy and certain to bring ruin upon the uth and all political classes in it—those who op- posed rebellion and those who advocated it. It happened, continued Colonel Yerger, that after ‘the war was over he got into an y which, he said, had made him more unpopular than many of the men who were original secessionists. ‘How- ever,” he added, “the laws of the country took me out of the hands of the military commission, and, having been illegally tried in the first place, I was not placed in jeopardy again before a jury, although ‘that affair ruined me, and I came to Baltimore to educate my children and break up the old associa- tions. The case, which led to my quarrel in Missis- spp has been decided in my favor. Asan editor in the Uae days of the State I was well known as @ man who met ‘opposition bluntly, and they pressed me so hard in the latter days that I had to announce that I would no longer go over into Louisiana to fight, but would right behind the State House.

I am toid that Mr. Toombs regrets Having made that first speech, ana it can probably be accounted for on other grounds than his own opinions, The Stephenses are impracticables, and have no future nor any present, so far as influence is concerned. Although you may not take it from Me a9 any established authority in Southern mat- ters, I tell you that the most violent men in the South want to fall into line with their fellow citi- wens all over the country.

Goupsnoro, July 1, 1872, Both parties claim they will carry this State by 20,000 majority on the firat Thursday in August; and as there has been no former election in which the issues were at all alike, or the infuences brought to bear the same, on which an estimate could be based, the pubdle will have to wait patiently to see which party will substantiate its claim; That the State will be hotly and closely contested cam easily be seen from the number of speakers now on the stump. There-are two candl- dates for the Governorship in the field, twelve candi- dates—six on each side—tor the State offices, two United States Senators and their friends, sixteen candidates for Congress for the eight districts, and candidates for both branches of the Legislature be- sides. The great struggle here will be over the Leg- islature, which body has to sanction the bill passed by the last Legislature proposing certain amend- ments to the constitution; and besides this tho same Legislature will have to elect a United States Senator in place of John Pool, present republican incumbent. Now, besides the prestige of carrying the State in August, in view of the Presidential election in November, the republicans will make a desperate effort to carry this Legislature for the purpose of defeating the proposed constitutional convention, and, if possible, return Pool to the Sen- ate. These are the two grand objects of the State campaign, and in comparison all other tssues become minor and insignificant. Vance, who was elected Senator, but could not have his disabilities removed in time to take his seat, to which Ransom ‘was subsequently elected, is now politically as free as any man in the country, and is already on the stump, having spoken yesterday at Wilson, will be on aspirant for this Senatorship. Pool will also take the stump ina few days, while Senator Ran- som, his colleague, but political opponent, is already in the fleld. HOT AS THE CANVASS NOW IB it will be still hotter dfter the meeting of the Baltimore Convention. If that body declares for Greeley and Brown, or endorses: them, then I understand a corps of re- publican speakers from the North, including some distinguished United States Senators and members of Congress, will come down here to speak during the remaining three weeks of the canvass, Funds will be freely used, and, if report speaks truly, the indicted and unsuspected Ku Klux will be pressed into service as good republican voters, and forever after go their ways, to be no more molested. The attempt made last year to calla convention by a majority of the votes of the people was defeated by nearly ten thousand, but that was a Ae triumph. Democrats and republicans voted ike for and against the convention, without re- gard to party, but more with a view to individual opinions and interests. Sixty democrats were elected to the convention proposed to be held and fifty-nine republicans, and one of doubtful litics. So thatin the event the convention had en called there would have been about an equal representation of both parties, and if amended at all the constitution would scarcely have been very materially changed in a political way. CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM is, however, badly needed in North Carolina, There is no shallow political trickery in this effort to amend the present constitution. This is the honest desire of a people who are unwflingly governed by an instrnment which they had no voice in framing, the handiwork of the carpet-l i ratified by the votes of ignorant negroes, who for the first time exercised the franc! » Which entails upon them a cumbersome and expensive system of local government, State taxation and debt, which they are unable to pay. It is necessary in order to amend the provisions of the present constitution thata bill specifying the Spas rO- posed to be made snall be passed by the lala. ture by a three-fifths vote of each house, Such a bill was npaneet by the last Legislature. Six months’ publication of this: biJl is then required prior to the election of a new Legislature. This provision of the law has also been complied with, and nothing now remains to complete the constitutional process but the passage of the same act by the Legislature to be elected in August, and its ratification after- wards by the people, to make the proposed amend- ments part and parcel of the constitution of North Carolina, As the political complexion of the next Legislature must in a great mea- sure decide whether the proposed bill will pass, the reat struggle now is on this constitutional issue. If this bill fails on its passage before the next Legislature it will be im- possible to amend the constitution for nearly three years, and then only by calling a convention. The proposed changes are of vital importance to the people of this State, who, unquestionably, are the oorest and most unfortunate of those victimized yy carpet-baggers in the South. Reform they may call it, but retrenchment is what is really aimed at. The bill, in the first instance, proposes to strike from the constitution the clause which declares the debt of the State shall be regarded as inviolable and never be questioned, and the clause requiring the General Assembly, by appropriate legislation and adequate taxation, to provide for the prompt and regular payment of the interest, and also after the year 1880 to levy a special annual tax, to create a sinking fund, to provide for the payment of the rincipal of the debt. Few of the readers of the [ERALD are not familiar with the ENORMOUS RAILROAD SWINDLE PERPETRATED by the Ed ewer Legislature of 1868-69, which in- creased the anti-war debt from $14,000,000 to nearly $40,000,000, The principal of the debt now amounts to $20,900,045, with past due interest amounting to $8,566,604—making $38,466,649. The amount of revenue required to pay the interest on this debt would be $1,794,002 70, and this, in addition to the taxation now annually levied to defray the ex- pees of the State government. This amendment itself, if properly understood by the negroes, would carry the Legislature, and consequently all the other proposed amendments, as they are as much opposed to oppressive taxation as their white brethren, LEGISLATIVE RETRENCHMENT. The bill further proposes that the Leg- isiature shall meet only once in two years, instead of once every year, as the law now stands, This provision meets with the cordial approval of the radicals, and the’ imagine it would be a gerd idea if such a consti- tutional enactment could be oma in every other ae as eee in aan hee ina. If there is one hing more than another the American people are cursed with it is bane TOO MUCH LAW MAKING and too little enforcement of the laws. A meeting of the Legislature once in two years is quite enough, and if any special occasion should require it the Governor has the power to convene the body in special or extra session to meet the emergency. But this bill has another legislative feature that makes it more forcible and siriking still. It pro- oses to limit the per diem and mileage of the mem- bers 80 as to leave no inducement for long sessions. This is a clincher and ought, perhaps, to be one of the most favored amendments with the people. EXECUTIVE RETRENCHMENT. Next in order comes a proposition to abolish the office of Superintendent of Public Works—a mere sinecure—to reduce the term ot the oftice of Gov- ernor and other officers of the Executive Départ- inent from four, as at present, to two years, ag it used to be before the war. Besides, it proposes to abolish what is known as the “Code Commision’ — anumoer of lawyers who are paid heavy fees for overhauling, revising and correcting the statutes of the State—which would save the people thousands of dollars annually now expended. uselessly. The judiciary then comes in for its dose of reformatory Medicine. Several changes are proposed to be made in the judiciary system. First, reducing the number of Supreme Court Judges irom five to three, an the number of Superior Judges from twelve to nine, re- quiring the latter to ride their circuits in regular turn, as before the war; second, it abolishes the defective system of special courts, and third, confers upon the Legislature the power to regulate by law the methods of proceeding in the exercise of the powers of all the courts below the Supreme Court, and to create such courts of inferior juris- diction as may be necessary, and provides that the jurisdiction of Justices of the Peace shall extend through their counties, The bill then deais a death- blow THE PRESENT TOWNSHIP SYSTEM, proposing various changes in the organization, vernment and officials of the counties, and au- orizes the Legisiature to provide for a system of county government. The office of County Commis- sioner is abolished, and their per diem and mileage likewise. The township government 1s also abol- ished, and the word “precinct” substituted for the Yankee word ‘to’ ”” ‘Thus several innova- tions will be rooted out of the system of govern- ment if the bill ever passes. It proposes further to restore to the Legislature power to make suitable provision by law for the management of ‘THR PUBLIC frenote, for yp the thay + og oghinton nd trusteos for the management of the aa aco 0 ‘person more than one lucrative office at the same time, THE ELECTION. Advices state that letters have been received from northern republicans here for the moral effect it will elections in other States, Neither money,energy nor exertion must be spared. My opinion is that the election will not be carried by five thousand by either party and if asked to: 1 te which will be the successful one, I would say the republicans, from the superior advantages they possess in the munitions of war.

The coming election in November in this city, independent of and apart from its national char- acter, will be a very important one, and promises to be the most exciting political contest that has taken place here for years. Most of the important ofices in the municipal government become va- cant on the last day of the present year, and the people have thus the opportunity afforded them of saying to those who aspire for re-election to their present offices, or to perhaps higher, well done, thou good and faithful servant, have thy reward; or, on the other hand, consign the unworthy ofMicials to political Umbo, As yet little has been done in the way of political party combinations. The action taken by the reformed Tammany party and the Apollo Hall leaders in the early spring. in antictpa- tion of the passage of the charter of the seventy, and which had provided for an election in May, has been toa great extent nullifled by subsequent events. Fresh elements will enter into the coming contest, requiring diferent party combinations and political tactics and strategy. The candidates for office then are still inthe field to-day, but tho Marshalling of the forces, th» disposition of the array, the calculations of the leaders and the terms to be made with allics are all changed. In May laat had anelection been held the contest would have been altogether local, the Mayoralty being then the highest office to be filled, and would have been decided without the intervention of outside issues, The whole aspect of the political ficld has changed since then. The Presidential election materially affects the plans and combinations formed and re- Hed upon by party leaders looking only to a purely local election, and necessitates in fact a complete change of base. What might have been successful manouvring in May would entail cert xin defeat in November. The area of conflict is extended, the stakes at issue are immeasurably greater, and na- tional interests come into play. Much of the local contest will depend upon how the leaders—that means now the candiaates—will, on the one hand, subserve, and, on the other hand, use those inte- rests to their own benefit. It is pretty certain that the contest for Mayor will be decided in favor of that candidate from the democratic ranks who can bring the largest sup- port to the aid of General Grant for re-election. To this extent national issues will affect our charter election, and tend, with other causes, to obliterate for the time being the hitherto sharply drawn line which divided the two great parties of the city at election times. Independent of the Presidential and Gubernatorial election, the citizens in Novem- ber next will be called upon to elect a Mayor, MEMBERS OF CONGRESS, members of the Legislature, a City Judge and a Comptroller, should the Court of Appeais decide that the appointment of ex-Comptroller Connolly Was unconstitutional. In that case Mr. Green, who Was appointed to fill the vacancy left by Comptrol- ler Connolly, would have to go before the people for continuation in his present office. A State Senator will also have to be elected, Senator William M. Tweed will undoubtedly resign before November, and of course the vacancy will have to be filled by election, Here is a wide field for the exercise of the suf- frages of the citizens, uncontrolled by despotic RING INFLUENCES. And there ts no doubt but there will be enough of candidates in the field to pick and choose from. There are at present four candidates spoken of FOR THE MAYORALTY, Colonel Henry G. Stebbins, Central Park Commis- sioner; John G. Kane, Commissioner of Docks; State Senator James O’Brien, and County Clerk Charles E. Loew. There will Rot be much of a fight in the CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS. Fernando Wood, Brooks and Cox will most likely have a walk over in their districts, but Smith E! will be opposed by ex-Senator Thomas J. Creamer, and Roosevelt by General M. McMahon. Colonel eds will have no opposition to @ re-election. ‘or THE LEGISLATURE there will be the usual scramble for legislative honors, omy a little more so, as there will be no a to make a slate, and the popular and qualified citi- zen in any district who may desire to go before a constituency can do so, with a fair show. The days of the primaries and of ri have passed, and Fabel foe and snuiey, of candidate will in the future be the only requisite passport to the votes of the citizens. THE CITY JUDGESHIP is one of the important offices falling vacant at the end of the present year, and coming into the gift of the people. The present incumbent, Judge Gun- ning 8, Bedford, will be a candidate, for renomina- tion, and most likely without opposition. For the four years he has now held the office Judge Bed- ford proved himself one of the most competent, useful and zealous ona servants that has sat upon the bench of this city for many years. His integ- rity and fearlessness in the discharge of his duties asa criminal judge in the Court of General Sessions has made his name almost @ househoid word, and when he comes before the people for re-election a be ge return to the office he has so worthily and ably filled will attest the popular verdict in his pipe There will also be a vacancy on the bench of the SUPREME COURT to fill the place of Judge Cardozo, temporarily filled by Judge Leonard, appointed by the Governor, Judge Zeonard will be a candidate for election. Assistant District Attorney Algernon Sydney Sul- livan will be strongly urged to run against Judge Leonard. He would be a dangerous competi‘or, as dad menatthe bar are as popular as is Mr. Sul- van. Very little yet has been done by any party or organization in preparation for the coming elec- tion. The forego! ng. gives merely a list of offices that will be at the disposal of the citizens of this metropolis, but, when the party leaders marshal their respective forces for the fray, we will give the readers of the HERALD such information from time to time as will enable them to vote intelligently and wisely, so that none but the best men shall be selected for office under the city government, mee DEATHS.
