Whence arose all this trouble and lutnult in Louisiana and South' Caro- lina? It was the natural outgrowth of Grant's policy of taking sides between two parties in' the Southern States. We say that when an outraged and indicant people thundered ,at the ddors'of the State Houses in Columbia and New Orleans, demanding the :j$icadg&f tejsurpers, and the "in stallation of the rulers honestly elec ted by their suffrages, they were net angry without a cause, and the recent attempt to slay Packard in Louisiana is only bisterry Tepeaiing itself. We regret exceedingly to hear of at tempted assassinations in this country, but tne history ui the whole world proves, that the surest indications that a people are oppressed and denh-d their ihts begins with the assassina tion of usurpers. That a man should pa-8 the guards and g6 deliberately in the State Houtt in broad daylight and seek to take the life of any man, is a circumstance to be deplored by every right tbinkii g man in the country, for it shows a dis trust of ithe integrity and fairness of the government of the country, and a disioH'orpnVih'divldaaW to avenge their "own wrongs, and the wrongs of their fellowmen. This at tempt to put a sudden stop to the ca reer of one who seeks to rule over the people of a State against their solemn protest should prove a warning to all such characters whos jnow'traai pled upon the 'de'arest'and mossltcred rights of an improvised, oppressed and l'ng suffering people.

' " Mr. Finger paid : Mr. Speaker: If the action of the House of -Representatives "depriving the private stockholders of the West ernN. C. R. R. of their stock should stand as the deliberate decision of the General 'Assembly, 'it will be a matter of the greatest possible astonishment to me, hrmly convinced as l am that it will be a aiost unjust piece of legis laticm as well as a violation of faith on the part of the great State of North Carolina. The only people who have ever paid anything for the building of this road are the DeoDle of the coun ties of Rowan, Iredell, Catawba, Burke and McDowell, and some of these counties are now paying interest on bonds then issued and they will event ually have to pay , the principal. It is true that .the State issued Us bonds land sold them to aid in building this road, but she had never paid them and it seems evident that she never will at leatft.we are .taking no steps to pay them.. Thus it is proposed, by the other House of this General Assembly to deprive the only people who have really paid of their moans to the enter prise, of all interest iti it. .
