THE UNITED STATES WESTERN
DISTRICT COURT.
The press and our public men have
for so long and 80 often rehearsed their
well grounded charges against the
manner in which the federal judiciary
is conducted in Western North Caro
lina, that these charges have, of late,
fallen upon inattentive ears, and the
people, seeing that the administration
has no idea of taking any steps to re
move the burdens which they have for
so long borne, have well nigh resigned
themselves to what is to come, if worse
evils than have already been visited
upon them are yet in store. But a
publication which was made in the
Raleigh Observer, f of Thursday ,last,
contains statements and proofs ofsuch
damning rascalities and maladminis
tration thaK public interest in this
matter cannot but be re-aroueed, and
our Senators and Representatives in
Congress cannot hesitate to exert them
selves to the very utmost for the pas
sage of the bill now pending to abolish
the United States District Court for the
Western District of North Carolina,
this being clearly the only hope which
our people can have of relief from the
intolerable oppressions of Dick, Doug
las, Lust and their corruptiienchmen.
The putlitioA quWtton is a letter
from Hezekiah Gudger, a lawyer,
whose home is in Madison county, and
who is" thoroughly conversant with all
me iacis' with wtich he deals.. Mr
Gudger is now principal of the Asylum
for the Deaf, Dumb and the Blind, at
y Raleigh ; he is ,.an , ex-member of - the
v: Legislature, a lawyer of well known
abilities and a gentleman of character
and standing. Mr Gudger. in his nub
lished, letter, vteltifies; toler his Own

man as counsel, went to Ashevilla ; ia

'CTiWtt,-, compromise Was
brought about, of which, the following
are the terms, accordingjio Mr Gudger,
and e" quote hia wrlttenwords :
tMr"'-Wood"i Was toay thepoitel
States one hundred and! fifty; dollars,
and all costs in the action against him,
the money to be deposited with me as
trustee for that purpose. The warrant
in the hands of the officer was to be re
turned to - the commissioner without
execution, Mr Lusk agreeing to write
fehd order this himself. He (Woody)
was not to be arrested nor molested in
any wayThis cdnipremise had to be
submitted to the Commissioner of Inter
nalRe venue atWashington City for rati
fication. ItVas tfief efore agreed that
while awaiting his action : in the
premises no wtyrrant should be issued nor
arrest made, and that as Mr. Woody
wfis evading the officers of the ; law at
the time of the compromise,, u ine

'tnentlheii,yii inthatfase, - no, pro.

notified me and I had l umple time to
inform Mr: Woodv. in order that he
might occupy the satne position -4 thata
ne aia neiore iii was euugm iu eu
compromise! This was the plain
agreement and CoukJ nql have been
misunderstood. ' 1 A
I went to Marshall a few days after
this arrangement had been made r and
saw Mr, . Rice a deputy marshal and
asked if Mr. Lusk had written him to
return, the ; warrants . against Woody.
He replied in the negative, whereupon
T wrntft Mr. Lusk ancl Collector
Rollins complaining that this part of
the agreement ad not peen corapnea
with. In answer I ' received the letters
whicb'I give, Jbeiow il l showed these
letters to Mr. Rice and he returned the
warrant as per agreement.' Something
like a mbnttf 1 after trris'F had a talk
witli -Mr. Lusk in which we discussed
fully the terms of the" compromise
and agreed that theyf were as above
stated. ,
About the 11th of April 18741 wrote
to the Commissioner of Internal. Reve
nue at Washington asking that he ratN
fy the agreement made by' Messrs
Lusk, Rollins and myself. They agreed
to write and recommend the same and
I have every reason to believe they did
so.
On the llth September 1874. five
months after the compromise, I receiv
ed notice from Collector Rollins that
the commissioner had ratified our agree
ment and on the next morning I paid
him the money deposited with me as
trustee per agreement, taking nis re
ceipt fpr the same which I now have,
On the Tuesday after this event, and
after the warrant had been returned, be
it remembered, this poor fellow Woody,
whose offence had been tcondoned by
the government whose officers receiv
ed $150 as full satisfaction for it, , was
causelessly and brutally done to death
feyfthi3mfj RtcfMloiwal then armed
wnn a capias wmcn juusk uau causeu
to issue against Woody after the con
tract above set forth.
Sequel to this wanton butchery : So
far from the murderer having suffered
death for the wilfully wicked deed
which he had committed, his acquittal
was effected by this partisan court so
soon as the case came on for a farce of
a trial, and the statement is deliberate-
y made' that neither Rice nor Lusk
has ever received from Judge Dick
even so much as one word of censure.
In this transaction Lusk is equally
guilty with Rice, of murder.
As to the trial which ensued Mr Gud
ger testifies as follows :
At the trial of Mr Rice for killing
Woody I made affidavit to the above
state of facts. Mr Lusk was introducN
ed as a witness and swore first, that he
made no agreement or - compromise
with me in the Woody case ; secondly,
that he never spoke to . me about the
matter in his life : third.? that on the
last day of the special term of the
court, held at Hendersonville, in Au
gust, 1874, he ordered a capias issued
against Woody. I was recalled, and,
to conhrm my statement, read the fol
lowing letter:
Collector's Office, Seventh Dis N C,
, Asheville, April 16, 1874
H. A. Gudger, Esq :
My Dear Sir : Yours of the 15th inst,
is to hand. The agreement between
you, non V 0 Liusk ana myself was
that the Woodys, ewan and Andrew,
were not to be arrested, and I thought
Mr Lusk was to inform the deputy
marshal of the agreement. Col Moore
will write you to-day on that subject.
Woodys must deposit with you the
$300 until we hear from the commis.
sioner. Yours, &c,
Pinckney Rollins.
These letters furnish Convincing
proof that Mr. Lusk deposed to a false
hood, and as he answers himself that
1 j j it. j- - 1 j a
ue oruerea ine capias 10 ue issuea in
the face of his agreement not to do so,
he thereby becomes indirectly, if not
directly responsible for the bloody
murder of an innocent and good mao.
The palpable violation of agreement
on the part of Mr. Lusk was fully un
derstood by Judge Dick, and it . was
conndently expected that he would
take some action in the matter, but he
failed to do so.
There is much more of this letter
yet, but as can be seen our columns
are crowded this morning. " We will
have tadefer the remainder of it until
our next issue, when it will appear , ac
companied by such comments as seem
appropriate. The one case which has
been citedis sufficient to earn for Dick
and Lusk the loathing and the execra
tioh of mankind-, This kiting of loody
was, according to Mr Gudger's testis
ffonyanHe iSuMdfof ihe let-
ter wnipn ne puDiisnes,)
bold
judicial murder, foul and unnatural
There are facts yet to follow which put
Dick in ,a hardly less enviable light
than we now leave him. The story of
his maladministration is being told
every day; add the irresistible corise
quences 01 nis own injustice and
oppression will yet sweep him from the

has issued an order that all the names
of battlts which have been appended
to the various regiments, should here
after be stricken from the army regis
ter. J Sumner ottered a similar resolu
tion in the Senate sometime before his
death, which gaye rise to a sectional
debate.
THE ANTI-RESUMPTION BILL.
The debate on. Ewing's bill to repeal
the resumption act, still continues, and
is like to run until Saturday, when an
effort will be made to get a vote. The
debate, so far, has developed the fact
that the mends of repeal will have a
good 5 deal more than a-majority for
thisbilL It is claimed by the oppo
nents of repeal that even should the
Ewing bill pass the House, it will be
defeated in the Senate. A great effort
is being made by emissaries from Wall
street, who have flocked here in the
last few days, to prevent the passage 01
the bill, even in the House, but so tar
with little or no success. On y ester
terday, North Carolina had the floor
tor some time in the persons of Mr
Davis, of the Raleigh, and Mr Steele, of
the Charlotte districts. Mr V. spoke
with great earnestness and force for
some twenty or thirty minutes, ana
replied with happy effect to Mr Chit
tenden, of New York, to whose re
marks he principally addressed him
self. He compared the financial legis
lation of the Republican party for the
last twelve years, to the scholasticas,
who would learn his ass to live without
food. -When he at last succeeded, the
ass died. So it was with the financial
policy. W h en th e time for resumption
came, there would be no country to
resume : everything would be in such
a depressed state that there would not
be left vitality enougb with which to
build up the shattered system.
At the conclusion of Mr Davis
speech.'Mr Steele obtained the floor
and occupied it .for ten minutes. Mr
8. made good use of his time, and gave
the resumptionists some hard blows
He depicted the distressed condition
of the country, which he alleged was
due to the unwise financial legislation
which had been going on lor years
past, Each successive year the people
were being ground down more and
more, and yet thy who were adyocat
ing the repeal of the resumption clause
were met here not with arguments but
with epithets. They were called re-
pudiationists, demagouges, blathers-
kites, catering to the mob. He would
vote for the bill, despite their villifica
tion and abuse.
Mr oteeles maiuen speech was a
most happy effort. At its conclusion
he was heartily congratulated.
THE ARMY BILL
which passed the House on Monday,
went to the Senate the same day, and
was referred to the committee on ap
propriations. On yesterday it was re
ported back to the Senate, with two
amendments. These amendments
strike out two provisions in the
bill as it passed the House, the one
limiting the strength of the army to
zu.uuu men, and the other requiring
four full regiments of cavalry to be
stationed on the Texas border. This
last amendment was adopted in the
House ia a spirit of compromise, and
it was only on the condition that this
amendment should be engrafted on the
committee s bill, that the Texas mem
bers agreed to support the first amend
ment. Now that the Senate commit
tee have reported in favor of striking
out both amendments, and as it seems
probable that the Senate will concur in
the conclusion of their committee, it
looks as it the bill might fall between
the two houses. The Texas members
will favor an increase of the army to
zd.OUO men. unless they can have the
quota of cavalry they ask for. With
the .Republican vote combined with the
Texas delegation it is more than proba
ble they could command a majority
for an increase of the army. This the
Democrats do not want but are willing
to concede the cavalry to the Mexican
border. bo with the opposition in
their own ranks and the differences
with the Senate, it may be some time
before the bill passes. For if the
Senate conclude to strike out the
amendments irom the bill as it came
from the House, the House will have
to consider it again. So after all the
bill may have to go to a conference
committee of the two houses.
THE HITCH
hfif.wppn the two houses on the armv
bill will, it is thought, stave off the final
adjournment, which was hxed tor the
zzna 01 tne montn.
DOORKEEPER FOLK,
since his inception intq office, has been
verifying the old saying that "a new
broom sweeps clean," and it is to be
hoped that he may continue the work
01 reform. Certainly no department
under the last House was so badly con
ducted as that of the doorkeeper's.
Mr Patterson seemed particularly un
fit for the place.; Many persons sought
positions ot a menial character,, such
as cleaning un rooms, dusting books
etc., and the only work they, did was
to draw the pay at the end of each
month. The places were perfect sine
cures, nothing more, nothing less.
This has been now changed to some
extent, and by orders that are impera
tive, all employes are directed to per
sonally attend to the office and to the
duly to which they Are appointed. A
rather ludicrous sight occurred the oth
er day , s A certain young man, who last
session had secured a place in which
he managed to do notnine. was azain
equally successful in securing the same
place. He is on the laborers' roll, $60
per montn. Heretofore all he did was

Delivered m lH House o Repretenta-

tioes of vongressi weaMsaaypioveinuer
14, on the Bill to Repeal the "Resump
Hon Act.
The hammer fell on the remarks of
Mr. Chittenden, of New York ;
Mr.' Yeates I now yield the remain
der of my hour to my colleague Mr.
Steele. J . ,
Mr. Steele Mr. Speaker, like the
gentleman who has just taken his seat,
1 believe it is due to my colleague irom
the .first congressional district Mr.
Yeates that I should return him my
thanks fof the courtesy which at least
enables me to get the attention ot this
House for a short time. 1 Know from,
observation since I have been a mem
ber of this body that it is one of the
impossible things, for if any man- has
occupied the patient attention of this
House while he was upon tne noor 1
have failed to see him-. But I beg to
say it is probable enough I might with
some wisdom on this. , occasion. take
the course which has been pursued, in
me juuiciai ms&oryui uneuj iue cuaieei
of the American Unionj by an associate
justice of the Supreme Court, who,
when his colleague, charged with de
livering the opinion iof the court, saw
proper lo deliver an elaborate one,
contented Mmself with laying simply
1. UVUl ill VUVMfW. -
Why sir, I might, I am sure, with
equal propriety say to this House and
to such of my constituents as feel the
slightest interest in the opinion which I
may entertain upon this grave question
that I concur cordially in the speech
made by my colleague Mr. Davis
who has just taken his seat and the
speeches made by the two gentlemen
from Georgia on this side of the
House.
Sir, according to my opinion, it is
perfectly clear that whenever there
exists an inflated condition of the cur
rency of the country no financial wis
dom will allow a sudden contraction,
and either contraction or inflation 1 of
the currency of the country at any
time, brought on by any other means
than the healthy demand of trade and
commerce, will necessarily produce
damage and ruin to the country. I say
that. I say, sir, that the great laws of
trade ought in finance -or feenance, or
any other way that you choose to pro
nounce, it, laughter that the reat
laws of trade, ought, in the matters of
finance, to govern the policy of the
country ; and if r there is any de
parture from them, ruin ensues ; and I
will say further, "reproach and endless
shame."
Now, sir, I make that remark as
not only applicable to the question
which is now pending in this House,
but to all other questions connected
with the trade and commerce of the
country. And men may put that in
their pipes and smoke it, it 1 may be
allowed to quote the classical language
ol one of the venerable "fathers of this
House," Mr. Townsend
I desire no burdens imposed upon
one class of our people for the benefit
of another, nor will X consent that any
injustice shall be done to any mateiial
interest of the country, AH are en
titled to be treated alike ; and no leg
islation which separates the population
into different classes, making one con
tribute to the support of another in
matters of business and trade, or which
practically inculcates the lesson that
there are really antagonistic interests
among the people, can be characterized
as wise. On the contrary, all such
legislation is wrong in principle and
will surely lead to disastrous results.
Some temporary advantage, it is tiue,
may be obtained, but in the end the
country suffers harm, and they who
suppose they have reaped a benefit
will find that it has ''turned to ashes on
their lips."
Why, Mr. Speaker, I am not a re
pudiationist. I am in favor, and so
are those whom I represent, of paying
the creditors of this country according
to the term? s "nominated in the bond."
I am utterly hostile to paying them
according to any other terms, and any
advantage inserted in the legislation of
this country by a Congress succeeding
that which created the debt imposes
upon me no sort of obligation to main
tain it. I will not do it ; that J, is all.
Why, sir, if the contract was that the
bondholders of this country should be
paid in either "'gold, silver, or base
lead," I would adhere to it. But I will
agree to pay nothing else. 1 never
will agree to the financial system which
forces a resumption of specie payments
for the benefit of only one class of the
people of this country.
I admit, sir, that there is such a thing
as a possibility of a resumption of spe
cie payments on tbe 1st of January,
1879. But when you do that I tell you
that, for the purpose of whatyOu choose
to call preserving the honor and good
raith ot your government, you are
crushing out the very life blood Of the
toiling millions of this land. Hut then
we are told that when we utter such
sentiments and make use of such ex-
pressions as this we are demagogues.
Demagogues! Sir, from whatever source
that foul insinuation comes, upon my
responsibility as a representative here
or elsewhere I hurl it back with all the
scorn which an independent Ameri
can freeman can feel. 1
Now. sir. although I desire to pay the
creditors of.this government according
to the terms which are set forth in the
contract, I have already said I am
willing to nay them according to no
other terms: and when gentlemen
come here, whether representatives of
bondholders or of the money power of
the country and I have nothing what
ever . to say, against the bondholders,
for poor as I am I own one of these
bonds mvself when they : come here
and tell us that we must adopt a sys
tem of forced contraction and forced
resumption to produce additional gains
in the pockets of a certain small fraction
of the American- people. 1 tell them
that, they have shown a sublimity of
impudence which I have never seen
paralleled, . 1 And when they superadd
to that the denunciations of men who
are graciously admitted by some of
them to be their neers on this fioori
they have reached the vjnpinnacle of
enromery, and we poor iran m orous
are obliged to stand aghast at an auaaci
ty which needs a chastening lesson for
ltshumiliation. Applause.

AN OPEN LETTER
TO THE PUBLIC.
Nkw Yobk, October 1st, 1877,
I have devoted twenty years of patient
study to the liver and its relations to the
human body, in search of a remedy which
would restore it, when diseased, to its nor
mal condition. 1 he result of that labor has
been the production of
TUXT'S LI VER PILLS,
Their popularity has become so' extended
and the demand so great as to induce un
scrupulous parties to counterfeit them,
thereby robbing me of the reward, and the
afflicted of their virtues.
TO OA.UTION THE PUBLIC,
and protect them from vile imposition, I
have adopted a new label which bears my
trade-mark and notice of its entry in the
Office of the Librarian of Congress, also mv
signature, thus:
jTo COUNTERFEIT THIS IS FOBGEBT.
Before purchasing, examine the label
closely.
THE GENUINE TTJTT'S PILLS
exert a peculiar influence on the system.
Their action is prompt, and their good ef
fects are felt in a few hours. A quarter of
a century or study of the Liver has demon
strated that it exerts a greater influence
over the system than any other organ of the
body, and when diseased the entire organ
ism is deranged. It is specially for the
healing of this vital organ that I have spent
to many years of toil, and having found
the remedy, which has proved the greatest
boon ever furnished the afflicted, shall they
be deprived of its benefit, aud a yile imita
tion imposed upon them?
Let the hohest people or Amebica sex
TO IT THAT THEY ABB HOT DEFRAUDED. Scru
tinize the label closely, see that it bears all
the marks above mentioned, and buy the
medicine only from respectable dealers. It
can be found everywhere.
Very respectfully,
