Any shortcoming* ot this number
we trust our friend's will excuse, as the
editor has been engaged wjth his law
matters. Court was in session for three
days during the past week. We feel
certain that our friends will make due
allowance for any seeming want of at
tention, when they arc told that it is
attributable to attention to other duties.
This can happen very seldom, and shall
happen a.s seldom as possible.
0O VOD KNOHJI'NT WHAT ITI#J
You haveiieard much of the writ of j
habeas corpus. You lirst commenced
hearing much about ft during the war;
and Blnce,~>ach year, you have heard
more and more about it. Why was it,
that you scarcely, it"ever, heard of this
great writ before the war? Why, be
cause there was seldom occasion for
calling it into use. Where there arc
no chills people hear little of quinine.
In the midst ol war, this writ ol per
sonal liberty remained intact here.
No enrolling officer, or others in mili
tary authority, dared disobey its com
mands. It has been considered the
great barrier to the encroachments of
>-tyrants upon personal liberty. Since
the 6th of June, A. D. 1215; when
King John, at Runnymcdc, a place in
England famous for tho treaties often
before made there, in the presence of
the barons who had taken up arms for
tho restoration of tho laws of Heijry I,
with great solemnity signed and scaled
the Great Charter. In the reign Charles
II an act was passed called the habeas I
corpus act, but this not being sufficient
ly ample in its provisions to secure the
right of personal liberty under all cir
cumstances, the statute 6(5 George 111
was passed which extended to relief
against the unlawful restraint of per
sonal liberty under every ■conceivable
pretext or excuse. The great charter,
with these acts, catne to us as law;
and we recognized them in tho consti
tution, and have statutes enacted iu
addition thereto, the tendency and in
tention of which is to render, more
available this great remedy against the
restraint of citizens of tho State, and of :
the United States. If you are arrested and :
putin jail,itmakes no difference whether
upon any charge, without this writ you
must lie there ;with this writ you can and '
must, if application is made, be carried
before a Judge, who must examine into
tho reasons why you aro detained; and
upon the hearing must discharge you,
admit you to bail, or remand you as
iu his judgment and opinion, law aud
Justice require. There is no other meaus
whereby you can get a hearing, 'or '
hope for release. Any magistrate in .
the State can hare you arrested and
sent to jail upon any charge whatever:
and he may do this maliciously, or may
be erroneously, but, if you are depriv
ed of the writ of habeas corpus yon are
as powerless to help yourself from
prison as if you wore in the hands of
the Modocks or any other savage tribe.
Tho Constitution of the United States
says "the privilege of tho writ of habeas
corpus shall not bo suspended unless
when iu cases of rebellion, of invasion
the public safety may require it."
Tho republican caucus, of members
ol Congress, has determined to give the
Presideut power to tako from tho peo
plo the right, if arrested, to havo the
cause of their arrest and detention
looked into. Tho republicans nre now
in a large majority, aud can pass this
bill if they wish; and tho latest tele
grams from Washington say that it will
• bo passed. It is charged that tho Pres
ident demands this power, aud that it
will be given. Then you will move,
If not live and have your being at the
pleasure of one mau only . Ho can or
der your arrest and imprisonment
without any soit of regard to w bother
you arc guilty, or even charged with
tho commission of any crime whatever,
and you have no remedy. It makes no
difference what your politices aro now,
or may have bqpn, are you iu favor of
placing your liberty, or that of others
in the unrestrained and unquestioned
power of any man, however good and
exalted you may regard hip? If you
aro nat jrou cannot consistently help
elevate nen to place apd power who
are; and who are now engagod in eo
doing.

CONVENTION.
The bills introduced into the legisla
ture before the recess to call u conyen
j tion, seein to sleep. The pcbple are
j anxious about the matter. "What does
I the legislature intend to do? Arc they
, afraid of the question?. lias Grant's
i Arkansas message, and the threatened
, snspeusibn. of the writ of habeas corpus
demoralized our representatives to the
extent ot abandoning their duty?
That the Constitution should be
amended all agree; that this legislature
_ ivili do soit has resolved. Now, j.i the
a iimmml incuts are needed and arc to be
made,, why not make tlieui iii the most
sj>eedy and economical manner? If
amendments are needed at all they are
needed at once, —as soon as they can
regularly be made. That the conven
tion mode is the speediest none can
dispute. So that part of the subject is
disposed of. That the cheapest method
should be adopted, common prudence
and our impoverished condition alike
remind us. Then, would a convention
ba cheaper to alter the Constitution
t|mu to do ho by legislative enactment?
One of these ways must be adopted.
There is 110 other. If there was but
one amendment to make about which
there was little or 110 controversy; then
to make it. by legislative enactment
might be the cheapest; but, when there
are ft great many, and about which
there would likely be much difference
ot opinion, a convention would, un
questionably, be the cheapest.* It
would be the cheapest, because there
would be one hundred and twenty
members, instead of one hundred and
seventy ; and there would be only one
house instead of two. Now, after long
discussion in the Senate, for instance,
a measure is passed, it has then to go to
the House where all the discussion and
delay is again met with—in a conven
tion there would be but one house, and
one discussion and one reason of delay.
That the Constitution should be amend
ed all agree. That it should be amend
ed in many particulars nearly all agree.
That this legislature will do it has
been resolved.
That to do so by a conventiou is the
quickest way, none can doubt.
That to do so by a convention is the
cheapest way cannot bo successfully
denied.
Then why not call a convontion at
onco I
ONK KKAMON Will,
One reason why our county taxes
are so high is 011 account of the heavy
amounts of bills of cost* that have to
be paid. One Alex. Gray, a negro boy,
from appearance some twenty years
old, has cost the tax-pavers of this
county nearly or quite two hundred
dollars, within the last year. Shortly
before the term of our Superior Court
one year ago, lie was arrested and put
in jail lor steajing some trifling articles,
and at Court was discharged. In less
than a month, he wascharged with steai
!ng some bid clothes, arrested and put in
jail again. At August term of the
Court, on account of the absence of
the witness to identity the articles, a
submission was taken aud judgment
suspended, lie went back'to jail be
cause he could't pay the cost, stayed
sixty days, and then swore out. In
about a week he was charged with
stealing a bushel ol wheat, and is now
in jail—will be tried this court, and
guilty or iunoccnt the county must foot
the bill Which, taken ; with the others
will amount to at least two hundred
dollars. There ure similar cases in
every countv perhaps; and nothing can
l»e done to suve the people, in part at
least, of this heavy expense, under our
present Constitution. Instead of al
lowing the legislature from time to
time, in such localities as necessity
might require, to establish such courts,
with such jurisdiction as in i{« judg
ment were necessary, tho Constitu
tion designates the courts and pre
scribes their jurisdiction; ahd none
others, 6ave for municipal corporations,
can ho established; nor can the juris
diction of those created be abridged or
enlarged. The difference iu the costs
that counties cow pay for state failures
and insolvent defendants, under our
present judicial system, and wha* they
would b« required to pay if we had
courts of competent criiuiual jurisdic
tion at couvcuieut intervals, during the
difference of time required to amend
the constitution by legislative enact
ment and by a convention, would pay
the cost of a convention.
Our jails arc crowded with that class
of prisoners, who, whether convicted
or acquitted, have to bo fed by tho
county. Should wo not have courts
with criminal jurisdiction oftener than
once in six months, so that the people
feould not have to leed these prisoners
so long? .s ' >
A 'motion has been made before
Judge Bond in Baltimore, tor an in-
Junctiou to prohibit the holding of the
municipal election in Wilmington un
der the charter recently passed by the
legislature upon the ground that it dis
franchises tho'negro. ,We suppose the
new charter prevents them voting more
than once, or something of the kind j

AI.EXANDKR 11. STEFIIENN.
Some time ago this gentleman seemed
to think it would not be so bad, after
all, if Grant should succeed in liis
ambitious scheme of being President for
a third term; provided he would not
treat the South too badly. He is rep
resented now as saying '• Grant's re
elction would be a sad calamnity. Ste
phens. it appears, first met Grant,
when the Southern Confederacy was in
the agonies of death, aiul then formed
a favorable opinion of him, which he
Its* giyen to the world in his history o 1
ot the war between the States. We sus
pect lie disliked 10 confess his first i in
pression was wrong, but then Granflias
been acting so badly lately, that the little
old man is bound to own that his con
clusions were hastily formed. So they
arc going; the opponents who apolo.
gized for Grant, those who disowned
being supporters of h's, yet excused
him, and those who warmly supported
him are everywhere leaving him in
troops. But for his extensive patron,
age he would not have as many Friends
and followers as President Tyler had,
when those of his party who indorsed
his course and were counted his admir
ers, were designated as "the corporals
guard." Well, much to give, and the
necessity ot giving it is apt to make
pretended friends of no other kind.
TUB AKGUOTENT AGAINST CON
VENTION.
It is urged that to call a convention
would be impolitic as a party measure.
That by so doing the democratic party
would probably loose the election, at
least for State officers, in 1870. That
the matter had not been discussed be
fore the people in the last campaign,
and therefore, there is no evidence that
the people want an alteration of our
Constitution, at least by a convention.
Should the amending of our Constitu
tion, or the call of a convention for tha 1 .
purpose be a party question? And i*
it is to*be, are we the democratic par
ty so to make it? A Constitution is for
the benefit of all, and no provision
should enter into it as a party measure
to afterwards subserve the interest of
any political party as such. It should
be for the good of the people, suited to
to their wants, and condition, under
whosesoever administration the State
government may be. It should be suffi
ciently broad to allow all wholsesomc
legislation, and sufficiently restrictive
to protect the people, all classes, against
any invasion of their rights, and suffi
ciently explicit to bear interpretation
with at least some degree of certainty.
It is the charter of power, given by the
people to their agents, the executive,
judicial, and legislative officers, filling
their respective places and thus forming
a government. It should confer pow
ers, uninistakeablc and ample,for all use
ful purposes at the same time limited
in its provisions to prevent dangerous
legislation, and the exetcisc of unnecssa
ry powers by the executive and judicial
departments of the government.
Davy Crocket found a coon up a tree
where said coon 'was violating no law,'
but as soon as his coonship espied the
famous hunter lie came down without
more ado about it. Now Crocket
would doubtlessly have shot that coon
and the end would have been the same;
so the coon veally lost, nor gained any-'
thing by his' abject submission save his
reputation, ile lost all sympathy because
of Ins cowardly conduct and his trieuds
can not now claim tor his memory any
manliness or indcjiendence of action.
Had he pursued his acorn hunting, as
he had an unquestioned right to do,
and not surrendered before even be
ing asked, it would have been better
for his reputation. Our legislature, we
fear are about aS much afraid of (Jraut,
as the coon was of Crocket, and it has
reason to be, for Grant is as sure death
to leglaistures as Crocket was to coons
but lot it follow the example of al}
the other coons that waited to be shot
and not this one which alone behaved
with so little regard for his rights. Wo
hope they'll not come down from the con
vention tree because they sec or think
they do, old man Grant prowling about
with a long guu.

GRANT A* DIR. BL'TLBLE.
The New York World lias a good
thing" under this heading, in answer to
a New York journal which lias had the
"effrontery to say: "Is quite certain
that from the day of Lee's surrender
downward, the personal course ot Gen
eral Grant, in relation to the Southern
people, has bcon of'friendship and mag
nanimity, not of vindictivenessor oppo.
sition."
The- World declares that those vicious
and unregenerate Southern people can.
not be induced to love and honor their
" great and good friend!" Such black
ingratitude is really heart-rewling. Af
ter that little scene in the White House
when Pesident Grant insulted the tax
payers of South Carolina because Pat
terson had slippedjn and told him that
somebody had spoken disrespectful of
him in their convention six months
before. After that neat little message
from the President to the most respect
able citizens of Louisiana advising them
to stay at home and not trouble them
selves to come to Washington, since
nothing they could say would change
Ilis Excellency's views,, After that
gushing and genial telegram to inform
Sheridan that '• the President and all of
us, approved his friendly and magnan
imous proposition to put New Orleans
and her people out of the law as a nest
of " banditi." It is truly melancholy.
It is more. In the pathetic words of
Mr. Bumbler, "It is sickening; it is
antimoniall" The only parallel we can
think of for such insensibility, indeed,
is supplied by the experience of the em
inent beadle to whom we have just al
luded, who took almost as much pains
to make himself beloved by Oliver
Twist as Grant has taken to win the
affections of the " Southern people,"
and with as unsatisfactory result."
" Mt. Bumble entered the shop of
Mr. Sowerbcrrv, the undertaker," says
the veracious chronicler of that good
man's career, "and, supporting his cane
against the counter, Hlrew forth his
lar«e leathern pocket-book, from" which
he selected a small scrap of paper which
he handed over to Sowerberry."
" Aha!" said the undertaker, glanc
ing over it with a lively countenance,
" an order lor a coffin, eh?"
" For a coffin first, and a perochial
funeral afterwards," replied Mr. I3H
mole.
" Bay ton,?" said tho undertaker,
looking from the scrap of paper to Mr.
Bumble, " I never heard the name
before."
Mr. Bumble 6hook his head as ho re
plied. " Obstinate people, Mr.TSower
berry; very obstinate. Proud, too, I'm
afraid, sir."
" Proud, eh?" exclaimed Mr. Sower
berry, with a sneer, " come, that's too
much!"
" Oh, it's sickening," replied the bea
dle ; " it's antimouial, Mr. Sowerberry!
* * * A woman who lodged in the
same house made an application to the
perochial committee to sond the peroch
ial surgeou to the woman as was very
bad indeed. He had gone out to dinner,
but his 'prentice (which is a very clever
lad) sent 'em some medicine in a black

•' Ah! there's promptness," said the
undertaker.
" Promptness indeed!" replied the
beadle. *' But what's the consequence?
What's the behavior or these ungrate

Last May Mr. Grant issued a procla
mation for the admonition ot the " tur
bulent and disorderly persons" who
maintained that Joseph Brooks was
elected Governor of Arkansas. This
week he has written himself down as a
turbulent aud disorderly person. If he
attempted to put his message to Con
gress into execution any officer of the
army would be bound by the Presi
dent's proclamation of last May to ar
rest him and deal with him as 6Uch. It
is one of the strongest signs of the
times that this message has created
scarcely a ripple of excitement iu Con
gress or in the country. The apathy
with which it is received, is in effect, an
expression of the general belief that
nothing Mr. Grant may do ought to
surprise anybody. The proposition is
entirely revolutionary. It virtuely dis
putes a proposition at least three cen
turies old in England, that no man shall
suffer for upholding a de facto govern
ment, although it may be that of an
usurper- It proposes to reopen the
wounds which have been completely
closed in Arkansas for the purpose of
putting into power there the present
partisans of Grant, and with the effect
of making waste paper of a solemn offi
cial proclamation of the same man who
now signs it. The best Mr. Grant's
friend's can say for his message is that
it is the result of an appeal from Philip
drunk to Philip sober. AVe see no reason
for supposing that the Philip who wrote
the message is any soberer than the Plttl
lip Avlio issued the proclamation. Al
though the President makes a more con
temptible and pitiable exhibition of his
own character in this Arkansas business
than he made in the Louisiana business,
although nobody seems to take notice
of this, perhaps, for one reason, because
it has not yet borne its natural fruits
of civil strife. They will come in due
season, and we have no reason for sup
posing that Mr. Graut will regret their
coming, as we have, from the debate
on the Civil Rights bill, explicit reason
to know that Mr. Grant's chief cham
pion, Butler, will not regret their com
ing. If disturbance in the South be, a 9
we are inclined to think it is, the best
chance for Giant's political future, ho
is taking the best way to produce it.
In that view only is lift Arkansas mes
sage intelligible.--—iV. Y. Word.
AND HEARD FHOIU.
The men who lend money at 12 and 20
per cent, have Infested the Legislature
all the session. The men who borrow
at these ruinous rates have not been able
to get here. They will not bo heard
from until the next election. Not one
man in fifty in North Carolina favors a
law by which money can bo loaned at
more than eight per oent., the rates al
lowed by the bill now before the Leg
islature. The people's Representatives
have found out what makes the panic.
When they attempt to apply the remedy
a panic is produced among the few who
produced the panic among the many.
The panic so prevalent among the far
mers for two years past, now prevails
among the usurers. They declare the
country is ruined if they can't lend
money at just such rates as they wish
aud tlieir greed for gain demands. If
not allowed they will loan their monoy
in Virginia. Let them do so as Holdeu !
said before he got religion and be ,
Virginia has just about as much as she
wants at the usurers ruinous rates.
The bond holders of the North who pay
no tax on their bonds bought at 50 cents
in the dollar during the war should bo
no longer allowed to establish banks
among us and chaise,what they will for
the use of money. We cannot prevent
their establishing'banks, but we can say
you shall not have more than eight per
cent., the Legislature have said so, and it
remains to be seeii if they will stand by
their word, or if banks and nsurers can
drive or buy them from it .—Raleiyh

a perfect Renovator and Fnvigorator
of the system. Never before in the
history of tho world has a medicine been
compounded possessing the rcmnrkablof

sick of every disease man is heir to. They
are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic,

No Person can take these Bitters
according to directions, and remain long

their vast tributaries, throughout our
entire country during the Summer and
Autumn, and remarkably so during sea
sons of unusual heat and dryness, are
invariably accompanied by extensive dc- ?
rangeipents of the stomach and liver,
and other abdominal viscera. In thoir
treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow
erful influence upon theso various or
gans, is essentialfa necessary. Thero
is no cathartic for; trie purpose equal to
DR. J. WALKER'S YYINEGAU BIXTKU*,
as they will speedily remove the dark
colored viscid matter with which tho

stimulating the 6ecretions of the liver,
and generally restoring tho healthy
