ItaaralMy Amoug Radical Offlrtalu In North Carolina. Special to Richmond Dispatch. THE DEPUTY MARSHALS OF NORTH (- . CAROLINA. , Washington, June 13. Investigations of i the transactions of the Deputy Marshals of - Western North Carolina show that not one third of the immense sums charged against the Government within the last three years has been for actual service nor honestly expended. These fraudulent operations, hay,chad ex tensive ramifications afWl "frici ca&ed with fearful rapidity during the pe riod when the Presidency was in doubt. It was generally believed down there that Tilden would suc ceed Grant; and as he would have made a clean sweep of the Federal officers in power, they determined to make hay while the sun yet shone, but they ruined themselves by over doing the job. OVERCHARGES AND FALSE CHARGES. The favorite mode, as previously detailed in these dispatches, was to make overcharges for mileage, and false charges for guarding and feeding prisoners. The loose notions among many people of that part of North Carolina about evading or violating the revenue laws in relation to the manufacture of whiskey furaished a rich field to be cultivated by nimble deputies not oppressed with too much conscience, and stimnlated to activity by small pay. In one case a half-dozen men were arrested and put in irons and carried from house to house among their friends in the same neighbor hood for nearly a week before they were taken to the court house, only seven miles distant. And for this the Government was charged as if the prisoners had been transported seventy miles and boarded and guarded for five days. The soldiers who acted as guards were put down as civil guards, and the accounts sworn to as correct, though FRAUDULENTLY RAISED TO TEN TIMES THE SUM. More lately a sharp officer arrested a druggist for violation of the reve nue laws, ha vino: found an unstamped bottle of a taxable liquid on sale in bis store. The summons, arrest and examination took place on the spot, but mileage, guards, board, &c, were charged against the government. Western North Carolina is flooded with these bogus warrants,technically called "pay rolls," which are Certified by United States commissioners, the signatures generally being forged, and they pass as currency among the mountain people. Frequently they are given as "boot" in horse trades, and some parties do a thrifty business discounting them. A man named Sluder in particularly mentioned in this connection. OFFICERS WHOSE RESIGNATION WILL BE ASKED FOR. WhenHester went to North Caro-lina-to work up the frauds: committed iu Marshal Douglas' office, he found that a package of documents which had been forwarded from the Attor ney General's office hud been opened in the post-office at Asheville before his arrival, and the suspected parties folly informed of the object of his visit, This caused only temporary delay as the proofs were' tn posses sion of the government. There is good reason to believe that Marshal Robert Douglas, Post master Fagg at Asheville, the Collec tors of the First, Fourth and Fifth Tn nitu SiiWriWa delivered in U1V Dart inm;u vcuio ii . v not nnthnHy.mi to villeo.t for more tnan three MORNING ED - OlTLILS E HOT HV VUBJU ' 1HE MORNING STAR II , .. . , : S .ij-p ' n,d, bvii w'ft-. hrS !.& ,l 1 " !

Jones will soon be redeemed from her political oppression. Her lands are better than the same priced lands in Texas or Arkansas." 1 Piedmont Frees: Brother Blakey hit some heavy blows last week at persons who too frequently use the titles "Maj.," "Ool.," "Capu," Ac, upon those not en titled to the honor. This is right, but he failed to put in "Hon" which is more frequently used out of place than any other title. Just think of every member of the Legislature last summer being dubbed with "Hon.'-Euh! f- This is the way a correspondent of the Magnolia Record recently informed that paper that in Sampson it was dry weather, but there might be rain soon : "June, with her cargo of Summer stocks, provided by nature, is here, and while the weather is dry and cool, it is unknown how soon Jupiter, the Grecian god, with his weapon of thunder and his iBgis shield, may send forth storm aud tempest." 4- I.

By request we re-state the problem as it appeared in our paper of the 16th inst: "Two men having $100 each buy a tract of land containing 900 acres; one pays 75 cents per acre, and the other $1.25; what number or acres did eacbfone get? ' The following in reference to the same have been handed to us: One man buys 80 acres at $1.25 $100 The other buys 30 " " 35 100 " " 75100 Thus the two buy 200 acres at an average price of $t per acre. To preserve the av erage of $1 per acre, one-half the quantity must bo sold at each price named. Robust' Let us represent one unknown quantity by x; then x will denote one man's acres of land. If he paid 75c an acre, then 4$ x $100 - x 100 -f i 75 acres, hence the other party will get 135 acres for his share. I but this wil not fill the requirement of the proposition, nenee it is evident it cannot be demonstrated. Dido et Dux. Local EdUor Star. Dear Sir: The conditions of your land problem are such as to make a solution im possible. It is simply a "catch." To make this evident we have only to make one party pay 50c an acre and the other St 50. This will make $3 for every 2 acres. Yet when you have supplied the party wno nuys at sue per acre with the amount of land hie $100 will Bay you have used up all the land for sale, and the party who buys at $1 50 per acre eH in vest his funds. It's a fraudr"" B. A, H: 1 Wilmington, June 18, 77. Editor Morning Star: Dear Sir The problem contained in your paper, which has been such a "knotty nuzzle to unravel," simply because it is not susceptible of being solved, may still fur ther puzzle the curious by changing it as follows: ; A and B buy 300 acres of land for $200, each paying $100; but for choice of loca tion A agrees to pay 35 cents per acre more than B. Now, tow much land does each one get, and what do they pay per acre for it ' Bill. Wilmington, N. C. June 16, 1877. : We want it distinctly understood that we are in no wise responsible for the sleepless hours, the wasting of midnight oil, the fearful inroads upon stationery, and the trouble and wqrry'of mind and body, ex perienced in the effort to solve this prob lem.

We are reliably informed of a remark able incident connected with the death of a lady of this city during the past week. She owned a valuable dog, and the animal had never been in the habit Of going inside of the house and had never been known, from a puppy, to leave the lot. On the night succeeding the death of the lady, and while a number of friends were sitting in the ioom with the corpse, the dog came to the door, which was shut, and scratched and pawed at it until it was opened, when he deliberately walked to the place where the body was lying, sniffed at it once or twice, and then walked out. The next morning the dog was missing, a fact which was so mysterious and unaccountable, ow ing to the known domestic qualities of the animal, that a member of the family sent to see if he had not been taken up and placed inthe city pound. Nothing more was seen or heard of the dog until that afternoon, when, as the funeral reached the entrance to Bellevue Cemetery, he ran out and met it, and then followed with the mourners to the grave, where he kept np a most dismal howling and whining while the last sad rites to his departed mistress were being performed. The sexton of the cemetery said he found the dog there early that morn ing, that he was present when he dug the grave, and remained there during the en tire day until the funeral procession ar rived. m m mm ' "' '' Thermometer Record.
