Washington, July 7. Some one who
appears to have .misunderstood or mis
represented the wishes of the Secretary
of the Treasury, directed Gen. Smith, the
appointment clerk, to make out papers
for Gen. Henderson as collector of the 5th
North Caroliua District. They were pre
pared but a halt has been called.
Nothing seems to stick in the tar State.
The President doesjiot see that it will
become him to interfere between the laws
of Louisiana and the criminals whom the
laws pursue.
Frank Richardson, telegraphing the
Baltimore Sun, says, the only, salv.it ion
for Wells aud Anderson is for them to
jump their bail and ,get the President to
give them some position abroad.

of the late returning board has been set

proceeds on the assumption that Nicholls
is in some way bound to protect Wells,
Auderson &vCo. The idea is, ther efore,
to push tlft; prosecution vigorously, make
the accused as odious as possible, and then
in case of an executive pardon, to impeach

'The indictment of tlie members of the

The friends of the administration are

COUNTER PETITION IN THE BANK
- OF STATESVILLE.
One Thos. L. Patterson, a judgment
creditor of the Bank of Statesville, has
filed a petition in the District Court of
the. United States, asking to be allowed to
intervene in the proceedings heretofore
taken to have the Bank of Statesville ad
judged a brnkrupt and to move to set
aside the adjudication for defects both in
substance and form of the petition, which
invalidated it.
The Judge made an order allowing the
petitioner to intervene, directing Register
Broadfield, before whom the case is pend
ing, to find and report the iacts, and set
ting the case for hearing on rule day in
August. The order directed a suspension
of the proceedings before the register till
the day of hearing of the matter. This
will prevent the meeting of the creditors
of the bank at Salisbury on-the ICth inst.,
to elect an assignee as the printed notices
from the register have announced
The case will be argued bv Jones &
John6ton,'of this city, for the petitioner.

ILVafstill Cooner-Journal. "
Is it not iitifui that so many -of the
fKHHy ignorant mountaineers should be
shot down and killed while resisting, as
we are told, the efforts that aj;6 made to
break up , their illicit distilleries t It is
bad enough, in all conscience, to carry
them, when arrested, hundreds of miles
from their homes andr friends to be tried,
but it is far worse to provoke them into
a conflict and shoot them down. Almost
every day we hear of one or more of them
being killed bv officers en era rod in at-
oo
tempts to arrest them iind break np their
"moonshine" establishments. It is not to
be presumed that the officers are always
to be blamed for the killing, for such a
presumption would be very unjust to them
and contrary to the truth; but there is
scarcely a doubt that the mountaineer is
sometimes killed where a few precaution
ary steps taken in advance would have
rendered the act unnecessary to a proper
execution of the law, and would have
prevented -it.-- Of course, the officer must
enforce the law, as he is sworn to do, and
we, as conservators of the public peace,
can demand that he shall discharge the
disagreeable duty imposed upon him in a
manner less calculated to drive the moun
taineer to his gun to kill or to be killed
to be killed in point of fact, for in such
scrimmages he almost invariably gets the
worst of it. '
The-number of these-little one-hofse
still-houses away off among the moun
tains of Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama,
Georgia and the Carol inas must be im
mense, for often as many as ten, fifteen
or twenty are broken up and destroyed
during a single raid. And this work of
destruction is too often accompanied w ith
loss of life among the ignorant, untamed
mountaineers, who . cannot be persuaded
that it is wrong to defraud the govern
ment on a small scale, while so many are
defrauding it on a very large scale, the
Government standing idly by the while
winking at the fraud. This press dispatch
came from Nashville the other day, and
you find just each iu the newspapers near
ly every week or two:
"During the past week the revenue offi
cers raided on illicit distillers in Putnam,
Jackson, White and others mountain
counties. They broke up fourteen. They j
got into a fight and killed an illicit dis- i
tiller named Sam Johnson and .badly
wounded two named Morgan. They cap
tured twelve prisoners."
"They got into a fight and killed an
illicit distiller name Sam Johnson and
badly wounded two named Morgan." Why
could not this thing have been managed
without getting into a fight! Of course
the illicit distillers are always alone to
blame, or they would not always get the
worst of tlie tight. You don't suppose,
we hope, that a jest and all-wise Provi
dence would alwavs let them be killed or
badly wounded, while everybody else
escapes unhurt, if they were not alone to
blame. Of course these little wildcat
concerns, dispcusing"distilled damnation"
unstamped to the unsofrhistieaied children
of the mountains, ought to be broken up,
but the men to whose hands the work of
breaking them up is assigned should con
trive to carry death among them less fre
quently. There is perhaps a fond, lov
ing, though niay be unlettered, woman,
who calls the moonshiner "husband;"
there are perhaps affectionate little chil
dred who call him "father;" and for the
sake of the fond, loving wife, and
- ''His 3-oung barbarians all at play,"
if for nothing else, the minister of the
law, whose duty it is to bring that moon
shiner to justice, should take every pre
caution to execute their mission without
making his life tlie forfeit of his violation
of law. The feai is that among those to
whom is assigned the work of ferreting
out. and breaking up these mischievous
little still-houses of the mountain wilds,
the life of of the moonshiner is held too
cheaply. True, the loss here and there of
a life or so of that sort can hardly be call
ed an irreparable calamity to the Com
monwealth; but, then, to the woman who
is made a friendless w idow by the sacri
fice of that life, and to the children w ho
are made helpless orphans, thereby, the
calamity is irreparable, and he will have
a dread reckoning to confront in the here
after who inflicts it upon them save in an
honest execution of the law not the law
made by Congress for the punishment of
illicit distillers, but the law made by a
higher power the God-given law -of self
defense. Let the United States marshals
and their deputies use their deadly wea
pons in the vindication of the law only,

From the Charlotte Observer.
THE CITY OF CHARLOTTE AND
THE A. T. ,V 0. RAILROAD.
The following is the portion of the re
port of the President of the Atlantic,
Tennessee & Ohio Railroad Comyany,
made at Statesville on Thursday, to which
Messrs Brown, Moore and Dowd entered
their protests, as members of the Board of
Aldermen of the city of Charlotte :
"At the last meeting of thestock holders
of this company, a resolution was passed
appointing a committee to meet a similar
committee from the mayor and aldermen
of the city of Charlotte, looking to a com
promise of the original subscription of the
city of Charlotte tp the capital stock of
this company, as well as arranging for the
payment of the above-mentioned bonds.
The committee on the part of the stock
holders having reported to the board of
directors a hopeless disagreement, as to a
settlement of said subscription or any part
thereof, your board of directors instructed
your President to institute legal proceed
ings against the city of Charlotte to- com-

Charlotte, why, it is asked on the part, of '
stockholders, should she seek., to, evade j
payment ? To- a largcu extent, and.i will
add; to the full extent ,of-. the roubles of
this road, is to be. attributed the. unjust
withholding the payment of tliis subscrip

says that to the bad. faith of the city, of
Charolotte is justly traceable all the fin
ancial woes of your company.. Charlotte
is a rich corportion ; she has fattened and
grown commercially great,., in part, by
your hard earnings.. You,' in. the. .mean
