TheNeW3 OBSERVER QALEIOn, HI C & A. ABHK, -., Erro WEDNESDAY APRIL 12. 1882 THE WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA RAILROAD. J - The report of the Commissioners of the Western North Carolina Railroad, pub lishcd yesterday, which was unanimously approved by all the members, is a paper of interest. It is (he first official declaration of the completion of the road to Paint Rock and Pigeon River, under the extension of time granted by a majority of the ctfinmuv sioncrs. It marks the completion of the first part of the oontraot entered into for the construction of the road. It remains for the assignees to continue the work to Murphy by 1885, and afterwards bn to Ducitown. The repot t bh"ws no abatement in the proscouuun oi' the work and a large, force, both of convicts and other laborers,: are actively engaged on the grading between Pigeon River and the Balsam Mountains, beyond Waynesville. Well may this com missioners say, "The continuance of such energy will continue to receive otUrj ap proval and support." y ,1 j It is significant that the railroad nas been built from Aaheville to Paint Rook, some forty-four miles, before tfcrbauage ment of the connecting road has built, the short link of some twe or three miles! be tween Wolf Creek and the 8tate! line at Paint Rock. We eongratulate the people of the State, and more! especially Jour friends of the extreme west, upon the. pro gress of this great work, acid we heartily join in the language of the commissioners in " expressing our gratification I at the energy now being displayed by the present owners and builders of this roaa.? j It must be a source of especial gratifioation to Governor Jarvis that his administra tion is coincident with an era Of -feuoh ' great and material ' improvement iin the good old State. We have (recently taken occasion to recapitulate the various-railroads in process of construction within pur borders, and the total number of mile was surprisingly large. I f i We are assured by those engaged in the construction of the jj Western North Carolina Railroad; thati ijis their intention, to continue to prosecute the building -of the railroad to Murphy with all reasonable diligence and energy. We know and appreciate the difficulties which they are obliged to overcome. The Balsam, the Cowee and the Nantahala ranges are in their path, and must be sur mounted. We shall not expect: impossi bilities, and the people of Jackson, Maeon, Swain, Graham and Cherokee will doubt less not be impatient. jj We cannot but believe that they will keep faith with the State and perform their contract, and we shall hope that the great work accomplished by them will be no less remunerative to themselves than beneficial to the State. In a rec ext editorial we remarked on the difference in prinoiple between the two great parties of the country. The ttt dency of the tenets held by the Republican party is to oentralization,while the principles of the Democratic party do not lead' to such calamitous results. The Republican party its of recent origin ; the Democratic party is a grand old organization whose origin was contemporaneous with the adoption of the constitution and the formation of the Union. Its early leaders were old reVofo-i tionary patriots; associates of Washington, his compeers, his friends, members of his Cabinet and co-laborers with Trim for! the! establishment of the liberties of the i fio uiuu aui cuumiui: UUL3. i Their guiding principle was while main taining the constitution of the Union', to S reserve for the people the highest free om of action in regard to local matters. Our system of government , is complex; The Colonial governments were distinct and entirely separate from each other When Great Britain made her treaty ot peace with the successf ul colonies that had rebelled against her authori'y, she de clared and admitted the independence; of each of them by name, naming each of them separately. She thus declared. the independence of Massachusetts, of Hhode Island, of North Carolina, &ei, &c., severally and as distinct and separate; States. A confederacy of States was first adopted ; and the Union thus formed was declared by the States " to be perpetual." But. alter a few years some of the State; uroie up mat union ana lormea sinew ..one. All of the States did not consent to this new union immediately. Its adoption by nine of the thirteen sufficed to make lit binding upon the States adopting itj and those that did not come in remained; un connected with it This was the case with North Carolina. Washington was elected the first President of the United States, but North Carolina took no part ia his election. It was just as if Mexico should now apply for admission into the Union, and we should agree to the proposition ; Arthur would be President as to , Mexico, just as Washington became President as to North Carolina. He was President of xthe Union before North Carolina became a "part of the, Union. -When North Caro-i Una and the other States became members of the Union they did not relinquish their right of local self government. They; merely said that Federal government shall! have the powers invested in it by the consti tution, and no more. They ev n, for great- er certainty, put in a special laiuse, that " the powers not delegated to the United 8tates by the constitution, nor prohibited by it to . the states, are reserved to the 8tates respectively, or to the people." 1 And so the States reserved to them selves the powers not granted in the con stitution. It is this that the Democratic party has always recognized, and our leaders have placed great stress upon' it and the palladium of our free institutions. France was once a republic. Her peo ple were free as our people are. But an ambitious President submitted the ques tion to the people whether he should not be Emperor, and by tlie result of the counting it appeared that a majority of the people desired him to be an Emperor. And it was done. To be sure he had his troops at the polls ; to be sure he had his revenue officers at the polls; to be sure he had officers like deputy marshals to browbeat the people, ana to be sure he had his in spectors of election to do the counting and make the returns. How the people would have voted, if permitted to cast their saffrages freely, no one knows. What the popular will was nobody knows. How the vote really stood nobody knows. We only know that Napoleon's officers surrounded the polls and browbeat the people and thai his myrmidons said that they counted the votes and that they made returns taking away the rights of the people, destroying their liberties and setting up an Emperor to lord it over them. - 1 hat might be human nature in France but it is not hitman nature with nsi We believe it was fraud ; in Francis and that a similar fraud may come to be practised in these United States if ever the people consent to centralisation. 1 6 ia the first step that oosts, and the lafa way to avoid possible dangers of thh kind, is to preserve the local rights jof the; States, and while maintaining the! consti ; tntion and the Union, prevent the Federal, government from using powers not dele gated to it. Right here is the great differ- ence between this new party, the Rfpub l lican party, and the old national Demo- oratio party. The aota purposes, policy ; and principles of the Republican: party tend toward centralization, while the Democratic party desires to maintain the constitution and the Union strictly as it is, and seeks to perpetuate the local govern ment of the people in their 8tate affairs? ? According to the principles of the Dem ocratic party, it is dangerous to. have Federal troops at the polls ; dangerous to have deputy marshals and revenue officers at the polls, and dangerous to have Federal inspectors of elections to count the ballots. ; And yet some of the leading Republi cans of North Carolina are now crying out for the government to do these things. J The Charleston New and Courier telte of an incident of cruelty that a colored man in that city thought he had a right to practice on his child. It says that on Saturday afternoon, about one o'clock, thg cries of a little colored child, in the yard to the north of the United States court house, attracted to the windows of the: court rooms a large number of persons who were listening to the proceedings in! the election cases. The sight that met' their eves was enough to arouse the sympathy even of a professional Govern ment witness. A colored man named George Emly had his little daughter, a child about 7 years old, tied around the neck with I a rope, and was proceeding to hoist- her up on a large fig tree in the yard. Several persons who saw the j out rage called out from" the eourt room to the man to stop, and seeing that he was being observed the brute untied the rope'i and tried to make his escape. A policeman had betn notified, however, ana arrested bitn before he could get into the street Upon being questioned as to the motive for his cruelty, the man said the child was his own and he would do with her as he pleased, and that he was only going to scare her for some act of disobedience she had committed. It was only the small matter of the stretching of a neck; but then it makes all the difference in t the world whose neck is being stretched. Father O'Roubke, a Catholic priest who omciates at Ulypbant, a village in Pennsylvania, has a pleasant prospect be fore him. There is a fellow in that neigh borhood who is perfectly sane on all sub jects except that he is under the halluci nation that the one thing needful to make him perfectly happy and secure his safe passage to the land of milk and honey is to send Father U Kourke along ahead ot him on the road. Sometime ago he marched unbidden into the church build ing where the good Father was celebrating 'mass, and walking up to the altar railing with his repeating rifls in his hand, pro ceeded with great deliberation to prepare for action. Fortunately he was seized in time to prevent his contemplated murder then. When questioned ia court about his performance he avowed his purpose, saying that the priest bad bewitched him, and that he could have no peace while Father O'Rourke lived. He was sent to a hospital for the insane, but has just made bis escape and is again on the war path. Wi learn that the University Normal School will begin June 15th next and con tinuei five weeks. The Board of Educa tion entrusted its organization to Superin tcodent Scarborough and President Battle They! have selected for its Superintendent Mr. M. A. Newell, Superintendent of Public Instruction of the State of Mary land, who has great experience and skill in the conduct of normal schools, and is distinguished for his vigor and tact in managing teachers' institutes. j Prof. Edward P. Moses, principal of the graded school at Goldsboro, who has so ably carried that school to success, who likewise lias had large experience and skill in the management of normal school, will be Assistant Superintendent ! The- other officers will shortly' be made known-to the public, it is determined to make this a model school in every particular, and we shall hope that the efforts in that di rection will prove eminently successful and that the normal school at Chapel Hill for 1882 will be as full of interest and as beneficent in its influences as those of the last few years. . ; Wx note with pleasure that the Wil tningtou Review proposes to make some changes that indicate growing prosperity. It is to have a new dress, to be a morning paper, printing the dispatches, giving the markets, and in every way beim; a live daily. We wish Brother James mnch success in all his undertakings. ; j e ' ; Twenty years is quite a time in a man's life, and yet it is not long enough for emo tions of gratitude to rubside. Last week there was placed in a show window in Brooklyn an elegantly engrossed and hand somely' framed minute that records an in cident of the second battle of Bull Run. Among Che Federal wounded left on the field were three soldiers, who were suc cored by a Confederate, who, noticing that one Wore a Masonic emblem, rendered them all the assistance in his power, got a surgeon to attend to their wounds, ex tract the balls, etc., and the next day got an ambulance and had them removed to a hospital. The Federal soldiers have just learned that their benefactor was Hugh Barr, of Moorhead, West Virginia, and have had this minute made as an expres sion of their gratitude for what the New York World speaks of as "the noble acts" of their Confederate enemy. Such acts were not uncommon. A gentleman residing in Maryland writes us,' making inquiry about a Lieu tenant Mottee, who served in the war and was wounded at Gettysburg. He says : I to-day met a gentlemen named Dr. Thomas Reeves, who, upon finding that I was a " tar-heel," at once asked me if I knew a family in the State named Mettee. I told him that I did not. He then told me that his reason for asking was this ; A day or so after the battle of Gettysburg he went on there to assist in attending to the wounded. There he came across a young lieutenant from North Car olina, who had been shot through the lungs. This lioutenant had his swoid whioh he knew would be taken from him, so he requested Dr. Reeves to take care of it. He did so with some risk and has it Btill. He says that the lieutenant got well, but be never heard of him afterwards. If the lieutenant or any of his family should apply for it, they would .get it without any trouble. Yours, S. K.

The House committee on commerce has had a long siege with the intcr-State commerce bill of Mr. Reagan, and has about con eluded its deliberations on the subjects in volved therein. The impression 13 that a majority of the committee will determine to report in favor ot a measure tor the creation of a board of commissioners of five persons, two or may be three to be se lected from the officials of the Interior Department, and the remainder from civilian experts: the commission to have a general supervision of all land and water routes of transportation extending to or through one State or Territory to another. or to or from any foreign country, but such supervision to be limited to the charges made by common carriers, and the safety of travel and movement as affecting inter State commerce.

The Maryland act of 1722, at the time of cession, was one of the laws of that State, but it did not follow that it was in force in the District. The act of 1722 was not repealed, it was simply not adopt ed in the new system, but adopted by the United States when it provided a criminal system for the District. It appeared to him that the act of 1722 disappeared from our laws along with the judicial system to which it belonged. The next subject of consideration was the indictment itself. It was an elabo rate and carefully prepared instrument. The offence charged was that of a conspi racy to defraud the United States. It was as charged a conspiracy executed or carried out to a successful result. Judge Wylie here quoted from section 5,440 K. S., setting forth the penalty for conspiracy. This act, he said, changed the common law in two respects : 1st, that a conspiracy in itself without an overt act was not an indictable offence ; 2d, in the degree of punishment, which under the common law was eft to the discretion ot the judge. It was clear that the conspiracy was suf ficiently set out, and the purpose to de fraud was sufficiently charged. The only question was as to whether the acts charged were sufficient to make out a case of crime. - It was a crime to steal goods and chattels, but an indictment would be bad if it did not set forth the articles stolen So, too, it was, a crime for two persons to agree together to defraud or cheat another, but the indictment must set forth the means proposed, in order that the court may see that the means are illegal. It must be made to appear that the acts charged will, if proved, support a con viction of the attendants, lhe question was whether the independent acts formed an indictable offence. Judge Wylie then entered into an an alysis of the indictment. If the alleged overt acts were indictable offences, the in dictment was good. The first charge was that extension of routes and increase of service on route 38,113 were obtained by false oaths, petitions, &c, with the conni vance of Brady ; and, further that subse quently Stephen W. Dorsey became the sub-contractor, after which another order to increase the service was made, and al lowances were made both to the contractor and sub contractor. He quoted from section 5,498 R. S,, setting forth that an officer of the United States who acted as agent in prosecution of any claim against the United States, assisted in such proeecation, or received any compensation, or shared the profits of such prosecution, &c , "should be liable to a penalty of not more than (5,000 or im prison men t for one jear, or both." He quoted also the law making it a penal offence for a man to receive bribes, Ac, iau uii.uio piuviuiug peaauy jor any person who falsely makes, alters, forges, counterfeits, &c, or aids in such altering, or forging, any bond, bid, proposal, public record, 4c , for the purpose of defrauding the United States, or willfully causes such falsification to be published as true, or shall transmit the same to any officer of the United btates for the purpose of de frauding the United States. There were thirty-six alleged overt acts set out in the indictment, the major number of tbem charging the employment of fiptitious signatures, c, m pursuance of a common purpose to defraud the gorernment In the first charge, allowances of the same character appear to have been made to both the contractor and sub-contractor, and upon the face of the paper it seemed that double allowances wer ; made. (Messrs. Brady, Ihgersoll, Chandler and others smiled at this point.) Mr. IngersoII interrupting the court, without ruing from his chair, said : "Will the court allow me to state just bow it was ? ' "lou will have opportunity to do that hereafter,"? said Judge Wylie. "J oDly want the court to know," said Mr. IneesolI. "I do nut t-aro to uuke a point of- that,'' said the judge. "The faqts arc," continued Mr. Inger- soll, "the sub contractor get his allowance out or the allowance made to the con. tractor." "That," said Judge Wylie, "don't ap pear on theifcffie ot the paper. "Well," retorted Mr. Tngersojl, "that is because the indictment is not well drawn." Laughter. Judge Wylie then continued his analysis of the indictment. lie quoted authorities, holding that it was enough therefore for the pleader to set forth the offense in such apt words as to describe U against the statutes. -He held that the ayerments made in the indictment regarding the false affidavits, oaths, petitions, &c., were sub stantially in ithe words of section 5,479, revised statutes, and that was sufficient. He quoted from the act of 1872, setting forth that no defect in an indictment which did not tend to the prejudice of the accused should invalidate In relation to the claim in the case ot Brady, that he was not amenable to courts of justice but liable to impeaonment,. he said tbat notion was erro neous. The constitution -provided judg ment in the case of impeachment should not extend further than removal from offioe and disqualification, but the person imp ached would still be liable to indict ment and conviction in due process of law. ror these reasons the motions to quash were overruled. f A Oard.
