CONCEALED WEATOXS.
The last Legislature, among other
good things passed a law making it a
misdemeanor to carry concealed weap
obs, nad enacted that having a weapon
oa the person, or tbe hand any where,
wept oa his previses should be prima
facile evidence that the snaa carried con
cealed weapons. This, a mas being in
dicted, tbrowe btirdea of proof on the
eWeedaaC, had he roust show that he
dees oot carry concealed weapons.
During the last tea years the habit of
carrying concealed weapons has grown
to such an extent that it has become
nearly universal, and evca boys carry
pistols er large knives te shoot or hack
U pieces those who dare disturb their
eqaioimity. The evils that directly
aad Indirectly resalt from this habit,
re many, and great, and are increas
ing all tbe time. Many lives bave beca
lost by it, and many crimes committed,
which do not always result in death.
Observation shows that the persons
. . .
woo carry pistols or knives, are out
tnose who desire merely to protect
1 I r ...
laemseivea iron assaults, but nice
at - ! . l , ....
i nun iB iea, mote wno are Duines or
cowards and are generally aggressors.
there is bo necessity for it, and
people should aot be permitted to do it.
Tbe people of this State are nmct, and
law abiding, and every one would be as
aarewllloit, as with a pistol ia his
pocket. Three-fourths of the homicides
m tbe country are the result of this
practice, whea if no one was allowed
te ctrry wespras they cmld' not be
ied, and before tboy could be ob
tained the need of them would oot be
felt.
Every citixeo ia thh county is a juror,
tod as such Is liable to be put oa the
greed jpry, and it is their swera duty
to present, all who have violated the
law aad we hope,. after the first day of
f July,, the tiase when tbe law goes
into effect,, that tfee grand jury will pre-
seat every man to the cjunty who car
ries a cancealed weapon of any kind,
and that alt woo are tried far this of
fence will be punished severely. It is
a barbarois habit aad should be stop,
ped-aadifit cannot be done io any
ctbeT tray, all who are guilty should
suffer the penalty, whether great
e iniaP ifcb or poor, black or
white.

it.u.F.Km, N. C, April 7tb, 1879
Mt Ida n News: I have teen
moved to objurgations too frequently by
the attempts af correspondents to
write editorials to err In the same dlrec-
rcction without, by way ef premise ten
during; apologies therefor. I5.it there is
bo new lliiui either in politics, society
or religion on which a letter may be
based, and so I crae pardon for in
dulcinc a small blast arrent national
politics.
Tbe main topic of public discussins
now is tbe apprehended dead lack be
tween Congress an.1 the Piesident, and
verv much t niv surprise some of tbe
eentlemeo to whom we tvroes in state
craft are wont to look for guidaace. are
leadline the doctrine that, in caie el
opposition to tbe action of the House of
Representatives already nad oo tne pin
af the 1'ies dent, Congress, tbe mi st
direct representative of tbe popular will
shall surrender. 1 tt. i dctnne I caa
by no means curcur and ltr the reasons
followine
In all government of whatever kind
It has been found necessary te place
the military power of the gov crnment in
the handi of an individual. ThH power
of the sword is as much in the batidi ef
the President uf the United State, the
executive head of Ike typical republic
as it is in those of the Sultan, the rep
rescntative ol the hiehrst type of aad
nearest npprouch to absolute despi'
t'um. This power of lha sword un.
checked, has by experience been proveu
to be a most danceroiH enemy to the
rights mid hbeities f the people, and
so what are culled constitutional gov
eramer t", by which term is meant such
governments in which the people are
recognized as entitled to share, have
from their inception gi en to the nenr
est representatives of the people, the
power of the purse ns a meaas of guard
ing and checking the military power ol
the executive department.
That this is truo tha veriest appren
tice to constitutional learning needs not be
told. In fact it is so thoroughly estab
lished a principle that any govcrtoiint,
no matter how just and temperate tony
be tbe sway of the then ruler, is regarded
as despotic unless the people hae
through this power of graoling or with
holding supplies at their pleasure the
power of regulating this military power
placed from the necessity ol the case
in the hands of tbe bend of tbe execu
tive. In eur country this power of the
Durso is bv t tie Constitution uuced inJ
tbe lower House of Congress. In the
first subdivision of section 8 of that in
strument it is provided in the words fol
lowing that "all bills rinsing revenue
shall orininnte in the House of Repre
sentatives." And in the enumeration
of the powers of Congress we find a
further safeguard, fur while it is pro
vided that Congress shall have power to
raise aid support armies, it is ia the
clause provided that no appropriation of
mosey to that use shall be for a longer
term than two years.
Iiy these extracts from the funda
mental law, for I have used the very
words of the C institution, it is clear
that the fr.uners of that instrument in
tended that Congress should at all limes
have the power to check any advance to
despotism on the part ef a corruptly
mubiiiiius President or, as in the pres
ent instance, the schemes of corruptly
ambitious advisers of a weak and ineffi
cient Presideut.
That Congress then has the piwer to
take the action anticipated is clear be
yond the p'ssibility of doubt. And it
is equally clear that such action is
proper and necessary oa its part. The
very essence of free government is that
elections should be true exponents of
the popular will, and that no force be
yond that of reason and argument
should be brouglu to bear on the winds
of the voters. It is to securing such
puretv and freedom of the ballot-box
that tho nttion of Congress is directed.

uf the proposition show that the coa
ditioa is necessarv? Does sot the verv

tration to allow tbe condition to be
