YORK PLAYING MARTYR. Elsewhere we publish an account of the joint discussion between Gen Scales, and Dr. York at Lenoir last Saturday, (our correspondent," a re sponsible party, vouching for its reliability), when Dr. York on ac count of some interruption bundled up his paper, retired from the stand and refused to continue his speech,' notwithstanding the fact that he was urgently requested by General Scales, a number of prominent Dem ocrats and Republicans present, who guaranteed him a hearing and re. spectful attention. This interruption, it seems, consisted of some cheering for Gen. Scales when he showed the falsity of soma assertion made by Dr. York by a witness familiar with the facts, and of some, profane epi thets indulged in by some one in the ' crowd, which the Dr. construed as intended for him. Instead of preserv ing a quiet demeanor and the dignity which was becoming a man occupy ing the conspicuous position he now does, he began to bully in turn and protest that he could not be intimiv dated, &c, and then , after . order is restored and' a fair, full hearing guaranteed him, he bundles up his papers and. retires from the .stand, playing the role of a martyr where he had, undertaken to play, the role of the bold and fearless man who could not be driven. We had hoped from the reports that we have read of these joint dis cussions lately that Dr. York had changed . bis tactics, . quit his low style of harangue 'and adopted a line of discussion more creditable to him self and those whom he represents; but it seems our hope was not suf ficiently founded, and we cannotrhelp forming the conclusion that he need lessly retired from the discussion in this case,, and : took advantage , of a liitle-' noise to break Voff joint can-; yass which is being "conducted on his parlt with neither, profit nor credit to .himself nor his party. We are no apologist for disorderly ..proceedings, and we. believe that all men who go bef Cffifiu W - pJe,td'aJ,vpcat jheir pouucai opinions' should be listened to regpecifcriy'; .ftjtrTdric'a-do-meanpripcf f $he opening of, the campaign shows that instead of try- ng to secure this respectful hearing he has shown temper and lack of dig nity and invited disorder '.by bandy ing wprds and.playmg.bully with the crowd; He r"(.is' ; apparently ? aspiring to the name of martyrl " V - .

The second auditor in response to a resolution of inqury reported that the board of sinking fund commis sioners had funded $541,000 of what is known as "Blaike scrip" given for interest accruing from July 1871, to July 1874, on various "classes of State bonds and was computed in the act of February 1882, as part of the inter est due and unpaid July 1, 1882.

Chapman, who has been in Hubbard's employ for several weeks, he having been seen in the vicinity shortly previous and has since disappeared, in the house several valises ; filled with valuables were discovered, making it certain that the murder was com mitted for the purpose of robbery. The deceased was unmarried and wealthv. Armed parties are out in search of Chapman and there is talk or lynching him it round. Civil Service Examinations. Washington, August 18.
