Coru plain Is reach us almost every day, through the Stale papers, of the overbearing and brutal treatment to wards ignorant citizens by the numer ous revenue officials who infest - the Stale.- VTe'are no appologlsVfor vio lations of the revenue law, but we can- i . if t j no?

Re member these men were prisoners, and nothing will justify cruelty towards men who were hand-cufied and; un armed. The Sentinel Bays : - . w "On Monday, Dull, Ketner Flynt, Watkins and the two Miller boys were hand-cuffed like common criminals. Qn Tuesday, Frjmk Butier, whe had een "iivtng in ttfe Ve"st for sometime, and had returned only a few days pre yious, was arrested and hand-cuffed; James Butner and the two Shields boys were also hand-cuffed. A Jpw down fellow, named Shuman, knocked one of the Shieldsf down, when he and another Marshall jumped oh him and gave him a seyere beating. Maj Wag ner, who had charge of the party, we are informed, jerked James Butner's wife down, dragged her some distance and hand-cuffed her. Hand-cuffing American cjtjzens, knocking them down and beatiug them when under arrest, and abusing women, are out rages that ehould not be submitted to, ven if they'are committed by men who claim to be actiDg under the au thority of the Federal government, and these revenue Officials, who, drees ed in a little brief authority, presume that they are above the law and that tha.tjt.be comrjwwcitiae-b.stto rights thJeJtioiiiid3o)etiuld be taught to the contrary, even if it is necessary to snoot them down like dogs to make them recognize the fact. The revenue department in this sec tion of the State has been made a politicaf machine, and -instead of the aw being strictly and impartially en forced, it has shielded some in its vio- ation, while others have been present ed, and there ii np doubt but that the rascaiity ol iederai omciais have fo- eredtne vioia'tions of these laws." . VIEWS OF NORTH CAROLINA T i CONQRESSMANi For some, days past we have been in grees the necessity of a bold stand in re- gard to making an army appropriation wnen ine new uopgresenait assemble in June.- Hon J. J. Davis, Representa tive from the fourth district in writing to' the Raleigh" Observer expresses our views exactly and we hope his senti ments are those of all our representa- fifM;He says :; "With regard to the army appropriation bill I have only this to say : the army has been im properly and illegally used to control the States of Louisiana and South Carolina , The military should always do subordinate to the civil power. This is the doctrine of civil libertv : this is ihe doctrine of the Democratic party4; ami it was the purpose of that party in the 44th Congress to give new vitality ,to this doctrine. We said : "Confine the army to Its legitimate iuncuons. ana you snau nave an ap propriation, but we will not vote money to support the army to oppress the free people of independent States and ; crush out their liberties." The Republican Senate refused to pass the army appropriation bill as it went from toe House; conference committees were appointed; the two Houses could not agree, and the bill failed hence the necessity for an extra session. Mr. Hayes can get an' appropriation for the army easily enough. Let him withdraw the troops from the capitals of South Carolina and Louisiana, and confine the army; to its duties within the limits prescribed by - the constitu tion and the laws and the appropria tion will be granted at once. ,r If he refuses to do this then the next Congress will not be true to civil liber ty, will not be true to the rights of the people, if it does not adhere to the bill as it stood at the close of the - last ses sion. The popular sentiment as well as the peace - pf the country demands thatrtne improper use of the military shall cease. M Yed ask, in this connec tion : "Ought the Bouse to give way to the President or ought it to stand firm ? ' I will, answer this question by asking another "Is this a despotic or a Republican government t v It is the government i of the, people, or of one maii?V Even in England,' it is the right of the Commons to grant or with hold' supplies. .

Charleston Journal of Commence. -The New York Timet, which has lately become the especial champion of the carpet-bag crew in the "South, publishes usurper Chamberlain's letter to Stanley Matthews, in reply to the note of the latter requesting him te . step down; and out.; The following is a copy of the usurper's letter : Columbia, S. C, March 7 1877. My Deae Sib: Your note of the 4th I inst, was handed to me last evening by colonel Haskell ;i f; I feel grateful for the interest you manifest in the public welfare heieas well as in my personal good. To give you my views of the situation bere,and nay duty, in connection therewith, with anything approaching fullness, would require a conversation. I can only say here, in substance, that I am wholly unable to ee any line of conduct ou my part consistent with personal honor or public duty which would permit me to yield my claims to the Governorship. I am equally unable to tee any .course which cn be pursued by the National Administration toward the Government here which I represent, consistent with political or constitutional duty, which will not require it to support, against tiolence or overthrow, the lawful Republican Government. I certainly wish most devoutly that I could relieve - myself of - this duty. 1 nave been exposed to personal dan ger by day and night, constantly, for five full months, and I am wearied to death; but there are one or two things dearer to me than comfort or life one i my honor as a public man and another is my duty to the Republicans of this State. Neither of these, in my udgment, would permit me to accept any accomodation or compromise which was not forced upon,; me by a pojwjec which'it would it would be idle to resist, I desire t aid and reliave resident Hayes, but this is a life or death struggle,and I know that I should consign myself to infamy in the eyes of all Republicans here, who know the situation by fearful experience, if 1 were to accept any terms or do any act which could result in the success of the monstrous conspiracy ag-tinst aw and humanity which the De mocracy of this State embody and re present. There are better ways than this to conciliate and pacify the South. Let the present administration, while firmly standing by the law and the right for Republicans, manifest a spirit of charity and sympathy for our oppon ents here, as countrymen and citizens, in the thousand ways open to an administration, and peace will come and will abide the peace of jus tice and law.the only peace worth right ing for. To permit Hampton to reap the fruits of a campaign of rriurder and raud , so long as there remains power to prevent it, is to sanction such me thods. All this I say, my dear sir, with feel ings Of profound respect for youbut as in duty bound to declare the truth as I understand it. Of one thing I am sure, neither you nor any moved by a sense of justice can understand the situation here and be willing, for any political advantage or freedom from embarrass ment, to abandon the Republicans to the fate that awaits them whenever Hampton becomes the undisputed Gov ernor of this State. i despair oi being able to set our V At 1 case in its true light before those who have had no such experience, but I do feel that if I had the privilege of per sonal conversation 1 could do much more toward it. I have written hurriedly and bee that you will believe me to be, yours, very truly. V. i. CHAMBERLAIN. Hon. Stanley Mathews, Washington A Yodvo Girl's Strange Career. Miss Cora Dickson, a young girl of twenty-two, arrived in Paris the other day from South America. Her life has thus far been a chec kered one. At the age of fifteen, tired of the mo notony of home, she ran away from her father's house with a large sum of money. She cut her hair short and and donned a boy's garb. After becom ing in succession a cabin-boy, a clerk and a horse dealer, she turned up in Buenos Avers, where she entered the army, still disguised. She distinguish ed herself in the service and became a colonel. Some months ago, at a meet ing otofheers, she quarreled with one of those present. A duel followed, and she killed her adversary. On examin ing the dead man s papers she found she had killed her eldest brother, who had left home when she was two years of aee. Horror stricken, she threw herself at the bishop's,feet who promised to intercede with her father. Mr. Hayes and Cards. Cards are still played at the W ite House, though the allurements of draw-poker played with alt its pristine ferocity: do not fascinate our pastoral President, who delights rather in the more innocent excitement of Void maid" and "begear my neighbor " The other : evening they were making up a party, but had only secured three players, when one of their number called heedlessly and perhaps innocently to Mr. :. Hayes j "Mr.; President,: shall we count you in 7" An awkward ' silence succeeded, and Mr. Havea turned red as fire, but Mr. 8churz seated himself at the piano ana piayed some selections from the Battle of Prague." and diverted the attention of the company till Senator Stanley : Matthews and Mr. Charles roster nad removed the unfortunate muiviauai and crucified hm.

Ibid. ; .

Therefore, when the defendant in 1870 said of the plaintiff that he had Bworn falsely in 1867 before the Board of Registrars of Davidson County, then acting under the provisions of the act of Congress, entitled "an act to provide more efficient government for the rebel States," which act ceased to operate in this State before 1870. Held, that the plaintiff, no special damage being alleged, could not recov er. Ibid. When a bank receives a check for collection and retains it for four days without presenting it. for payment or making any effort for its collection or giving any notice to the depositor of its non payment, the bank is liable if loss thereby ensures. Bank of New Han over v. Kenan. v ' ' : In such case,, a promise thereafter made by the depositor to pay to the bank the amount due by reason of the loss, is nudum factum. Ibid, When paper is placed in the hands of a bank for collection, the bank must take the necessary steps to secure its prompt payment by presentation at maturity. If it is not paid, the bank, in order to fix the liability of the draw er, must have it protested, and due no tice of its dishonor given to tbedepoai tor. If it is not presented, the fact that if it had been paid, does not excuse the liability of the bank. Ibid. When one. voluntarily assumes an agency to manage the interests of an other, such agent will not be allowed to sacrifice the interests of his princi pal to his own. Therefore, when a bank received a check upon itself for collection, being at the same time a large creditor of the drawer and failed without excuse to notify the depositor of the non-payment of the check, Held, to he in law, negligence. Ibid. In such case, the bank makes the check its own and is fixed with its full amount. Ibid. A county is not liable for the board of a jury in a capital case, during the pendency of the trial.

Distillers of "crooked whisky.'', as a general rule, take, it "straight" A gallows once started into opera tion, is said to go at "break-neck speed." Avoid being too confident of your ability to discount a stranger at billi ards. To test a young lady's love for you ask her to sew some shirts on vour buttons. Brace up !" was the cherry advice of a minister to a bashful couple he was about to marry. When ducks shall prefer dry land to water, will the electricty in cats be util ized. To be "regular in your habits," does not necessarily imply a cooktail before breakfast. Never procrastinate your opportun ity to get out of the way of a police man's club in its descent. If you are anxious to keep the se cret Yf your engagement from your father, do not ask him for money . Being dunned by an apple woman for the amount of your bill is one of the abuses of the "credit system." Avoid speculating too wildly in Wall street and perhaps, in a monetary sense, you will not be "driven to the wall." Never delude yourself with the idea that wearing a hat a size too large, is indicative of unusual intellectual de velopment. When the dogs of war" shall be fed on the "milk of human kindness," will a drunken man lose his affoction for a lamppost ? Never become so absorbed in reflec tion upon the depleted condition of your pocket book as to put the lighted end of a cigar in your mouth. The attachment of a dog for his mas ter is often affecting in its feeling, but the tenacity f a "Sheriff's attachment" is quite another thing in its way. When" young ladies shall not wear tight shoes, nor young gentlemen get tight in their boots, will oleamargerine be preferred to pure Goshen butter?" When "Diogones' tub" shall be found in a good state of preservation, would its sale at auction excite any competition among our fashionable 'laundries?'' Always include your mother-in-law in your invitation to your wife to visit the opera, especially if the former has her life insured for the benefit of your children. When a miser shall overdraw his bank account upon an appeal for charity, will the popular .pastime of ; i-j cars become obsolete? . The uncertainty of the law is shown in sueing for $100,000 damages for breach of promise to marry, and get ting a verdict ef six cents, with the privilege of paying your ewn costs.
