A CARD. MB. EDITOU : Recognizing the wisdom of Gov. Hampton's advise, that "tho peoplo should select their best men for tho Legis lature, and require them to serve," we pre sent Hon. H. R. Vandlvor to tho Democ racy of the County for re-election to the House of Representatives. If high charac ter, long experience, a mind capable of ap preciating tho wants of the peoplo, and a steadfast devotion to their interest, consti tute a claim to their confidence and suffcr age, then his friends, confident of success, ask him to go before the peoplo at their pri mary election. Pnnt. Vandiver's character and record are too well known to tbs peoplo of the County to need any extended notice here. We be lieve he has served longer in tho Legislature than any man In the County now available for tho position, and during the many years of this service, both before and since the war, the record will show as closo attention to thc duties of his position ou bis part as that of any Representative who served du ring tho Bamo termB. The firmness and courftgo with which ho stood by his Demo cratic brethren in tho dark and perilous days< "November, '70, is sufficient guaran tes ?im' i*by any iaisforiune thoS^?Vildays should return, he will not be found want ing In those qualities which sav?l the State in that hour of her extremest deed. In tho Legislature, Capt. Yandiver ls emi nently a working member. / His friends do not claim that he is Hereat speaker, and they are not BO sure buy that this ls in some m cacuro a recommendation, for lt is feared that tho extreme Irfigth of tho legislative Sassions of late yesi^ is owing to too much "Buncombe spiking" and not enough *?ork.
