LOCAL OITI0N. j. We learn that the local option move ment in this towuship has attracted the attention of citizens of some of the coun try townships, who have expressed a de sire to join in it. The authors of the movement here are rejoiced at tli is indi cation of approval, and w ill co-operate most heartily with every- com in unity williui to leud a hand. The evil aimed at is far reaching iu its consequences, and falls heavily on all industrious and sober citizens. These stay at home and mind their own business, toiling late and early. and theu see their hard earnings, which should go to educate their children, swallowed up in , such prosecutions as that agaiust Bill Locke, and the negro who Attempted to rob Setzer, and many others, instigated by liquor. It is a well ascertained fact that more than half of the Court costs for the prosecution of criminals is caused either directly or in directly by the use of intoxicating li quors ; and the people who stand idly y and see murders and other crimes perpetrated through the influence of a cause under their control without trying to stop it, are morally guily of the crimes committed, and justly suffer the inci dental penalties of loss of timeand money by the prosecutions which follow. The only escape left to those who watit to have clean hands on this subject and exemption from material damage, is to do what they can to arrest the evil. The Legislature has made it easy for every township to wipe it out. If the jieople neglect or refuse to do it, they assume all the moral responsibility involved, which, as indicated above, is tearful: anil wil- ingly lay themselves liable to heavy taxes. I he nmu who stands by aud sees a murder committed or the rncendiarv's torch applied, is held by the law to be nearly as guilty as he who commits the crime. And tney who see the evil of the iqiior traffic and neglect or refuse to do what that they can to arrest it, will have to answer for it here and hereafter. Limits tie salary of the mayor to $250.

Ala. ukuneb: ueab sib: m move- men t for local prohibition in Salisbury town- sliip, ss announctd hereto fore in your col umnn, nhould bring to its aid the frieud of religion and morality nd of social order. Like yourself, I have no disparaging reflec tions to make against tlie persons who have handled ipiritiiouH liquor. But for the refor malion of inebriates, for thj rotection of the young, to stop a frightful pecuniary waste, and for other more sacred reasons, 1 believe a Urge mijority of our reflecting people in Bowan courtly, will rejoice in the success ol your movement. Application has been made to the LegU'a ture for local proLibi. ion a. omul some of jair country churches. The friends of that move- i ft iiicnt in 1 lie country will not only Highly ap prove of the vote which is proposed iu your towiirthip, but lluy will be glad to have a similar vote taken on the first Thursday of June, in all the townships of the county. If the tratfio U removed iroiu your township, why liould it be contince l in the" others fhe tirnt glance at lh matter show that we ouglit all to act together. The result must deeud unon the free action of the people. And to ascertain thwr real winlieK, I propose that petitioim iu favor of an election be circu lated in every township, and where a fourth of the qualified voiers favor the election, let it be held, and let them declare at the ballot box their honest conviction whether the liquor traffic ha been a blt-siung or not to the people of Uowau county.

Ah to religion, all belong to the church, being the children of Abraham. But in no one thing are we no unaniiuoctfly agreed we are in our opposi tion to schools and education. When we have free school for one month during the year, we alwaya aelect the moat illiterate of our tribe to do the teaching. Our preachers tell the peo ple juat what in handed down. Oueold man Mrs he is a hoin and the Lord blows through him. There i a belief in this locality, an idea born perhaps in the brain of the father and in herited by the children, that mostdiseasea abore the control of medicine hare their origin in Satanic malice. This has influenced many of our elderly women of late to look wisely th rough the Bible. And according to their in terpretaiion, witchcraft and spontaneous gen eration are as clearly taught as infint baptism In the sacred rolnnie.
