A QUESTION OF IMPORTANCE TO
THE PRESS AND PUBLIC.
Within the last ten years more
bills of a dangerous character have
been introduced into Congress per
haps than daring the preceding fifty
years. Bills of all kinds the tendency
of which is to strip the States of
power and build up a grand Central
ized Government with all power. The
most unpleasant part of it is that this
is done by men who are not believed
to be Imperialists in disguise or in
any sense the enemies of a Constitu
tional and free Government. They
.simply do not know. They are igno-
rant of the far-reaching character of I
their bills. They look at one seg
ment of an arc and think they see
the whole circle. They glimpse a
tiny portion of one side of the shield
and think they have seen both sides.
Ignorance has done a vast deal of in
jury to mankind when well meant.
There is a number of bills before
the Congress looking to the regula-
tion of the press of the country.
These bills undertake to dictate what
shall not appear in the public pnntp.
The end sought is to rule out lotter-
ies and gift enterprises. Members
dislike lotteries, believe them evil,
ana at once seek to prevent them.
To do this i the newspapers of the
country must be taken in hand. The
.end justifies the means. The clergy
and others say well done. Some of
the newspapers themselves chime in
with well done.
Where will this end? If it is
proper by legislation to prevent
V ' newspapers from publishing lotter-
r'- ies, cannot legislation compel pub-
nsuers 10 insert such matter as shall
be ordered? If so, then where is the
liberty of the press the right to
print r
Congressmen, before thev go anv
s:: farther in this business of restricting
the press by fines and penalties,
' , would do themselves and the country
- - -J , a service if they will go to Mr. Spof-
- ;Iora ?ne able and learned Librarian I

to legislate in this matter, can there
be - any limit to Its already vast
powers?.. :
The friends of freedom aresilent
while their rights are being stealthi
ly invaded and destroyed. Paternal
ism is on top. It lays its great hand
upon the States and all their inter
ests. It may be desirable not to
have lotteries. It may be ... desirable
to have newspapers exclude - all
patent medicines and rafflings and
races and walking matches and lot'
tery drawings and gift enterprises
from their columns, but can the
Congress do this without infring
ing the rights of the States, and
violating the rights of the press?
Will not & free press disappear under
V such usurpation?
v. The Washington JPost discusses
vigorously and tellingly this mon
strous attempt to gag the press of
the country. What it saysls timely
and unanswerable. If under the
specious plea of curing a real or an
imaginary evil the right to publish is
either infringed or removed al
together then a dagger is driven deep
into the very heart of liberty itself.
Next will come the regulating by
Congressional legislation of religious
assemblies, and then we are set back
two or three hundred years when re
ligious persecutions damned and dis
graced the world and a censorship
was placed upon the thoughts and
pens of men. .
We must copy a part of what the
able Post says:
"Embedded in this apparently very plain
proposition is the rather extensive question
of a free press. For if Mr. Browne, of In
diana, because he does not buy a lottery
ticket or invest in a scheme of chance, has
the right to tell the publisher of the Post
that he shall not publish anything concern
ing games of chance, he has the right as
well to dictate to him what he shall pub
lish. Without both legs his proposition
could not stand for a moment Is the
House of Representatives prepared to go
quite so far as this because Mr. Browne
or Mr. Glass are opposed to lotteries? It
is undoubtedly true that many of the States
have passed laws similar to the bill
which was before the House for a few mo
ments on Thursday, but there is a vast dif
ference between the right of a btate to do
this and the propriety of imitation by Con
gress. Because a State may have done it,
it does not follow that it is constitutional,
nor will it be an undisputed question until
the Supreme Court has passed upon it.
This bill, however, differs widely from the
other bills engaging the attention of Con
gress. They not only make it illegal to
publish advertisements or news items rela
ting to Bchemes of chance, but go so far as
to provide for the appointment of a censor
of the press an individual who went out,
so far as the United States is concerned,
with the Georges, and has not been since
revived. This is a paternal government
with a vengeance, and all this for fear some
information may find its way into the col
umns of a newspaper which may lead its
readers to descend to the depravity of buy
ing a lottery ticket."
This editorial was prepared days
ago. It will answer now as it refers
to a real' principle the freedom of
the press in which is involved the
destinies of our country. Civil and
religious noerty depend upon an
unshackled public press. The bill
aimed at the newspapers was de-
a. a
feated in the House Committee on
Pest Offices by a olose vote. The
names of the six ayes on orb t to be
known.
RHemORIALS OF A CAROLINIAN. 2
We have been reading a little vol-
I ume of "Biographic Sketches" upon
J the late FennerB. Satterthwaite who
I was one of the most distinguished
I lawyers of the Bar in Eastern Caro-
I Una. There is a portrait of him that
I presents a large, imposing person ace.
I We never saw him, but knew of him
I ever since his famous duel with Col.
J Kennedy. There are sketches by
I the editor. Mr. F. S. Stieknev. Dr. R.
P. Battle. Rev. T. P. Ricand. Mr:
I Hugh F. Murray, Mr. John S. Long,
Judges Reade. Moore. Rodman and
Shepherd and others. The fine work
of the whole are the sketches by
Messrs. Long and Murray.' : They
show that genuine literary skill which
I is sometimes a natural endowment
I and is sometimes acquired. They
I both write with critical elegance and
I reveal insight into character. The
I other sketches, as far as we read,
I were interesting. We were able
I to gather no doubt a correct view
I of an able, eloquent and excellent
I member of the bar, who carried
J a very warm heart for his j friends,
was open to his enemies, was of a
resolved will and -high personal
I courage, was given to hospitality,
was a model husband and father, was
a man of conservative principles, of
marked benevolence and integrity,
and was in every position he occu
pied a faithful, useful, earnest, suc
cessful worker. He was nossessed
of no great learning, was a man of

i&aoh is the snuiming up wo would
make af terrunning through; most pi
the sketekes and eulogies. SThe tes
timony is uniform as to nearly all of
the traits presented. He was evi
dently of large-intellectual resources
although his mental furniture was de.
feotive and scant -because, of "his im-
nar font, advantages in VOUth. HeJ
was to a very great extent self-made;
that is, he had but few scholastic ad
vantages apd had to rely upon his
own fine natural parts, aided by such
reading as he oould pursue, to equip
himself for the great contest and the
rivalry among men. Mr. Murray, in
his soholarly and elegant sketch, says:
"Nature had bestowed upon him a vigo
rous constitution, an athletic and symmetri
cal physique, engaging features, and an ac
tive and comprehensive intellect. His early
education was sadly defective, a misfortune
which he never ceased to appreciate and de
plore, but which the application and obser
vation of later years repaired to a de
gree which was almost marvellous. He
never became a scholar or a learned lawyer,
but it was the admiration of all beholders
to witness the adroit, the overwhelming
employment of the resources at his com
mand. - His voice became attuned
to every note in the gamut of human emo
tion. A large, flexible mouth, eyes
full and bright and deep, and often inex
pressibly sad of expression, which could
beam an epigram or look an elegy, aug
mented the sum of his wonderful gifts:
The delineation is complete, when we add
to these a dauntless bat quiet courage,
which shrank from no peril. As an
ariwntafA ATfAA1inir wiim fftlr-anoken and
persuading, he was the Sir James Scarlett
OI tne norm uarouna ar, tne greatest
forensic orator and the greatest winner of
verdicts. I firmly pronounce, that 1 have
ever known."
Mr. Satterthwaite was born in
Beaufort county on the Sth.of March,
1813, and died in Washington, N.
C, on the 23rd of March, 1875. He
was a member of -the Episcopal
Church. He died suddenly from
apoplexy. Rev. T. E. Ricaud, of
our town, who knew him intimately,
pays a touching tribute to his worth.
North Carolina has produced many
men of really great powers who in
life were known to but few of their
fellow citizens. Men of high en
dowments and rare eloquence have
lived and passed away leaving
scarcely one memorial of their great
ness. To-day there are scarcely any
remains to attest the greatness of
Badger, Murphey,Mangum, Satterth
waite, the elder Kerr, Hexekiah G.
Leigh, Thomas G. Lowe, and many J
others who could be named. Their
greatness is Already a fading tradi
tion. Soon all who ever heard them
will too have passed away and then
the silence of the grave will cover
all alike the speakers and hearers.
A GREAT FOR t'St.
The United States have really
grown to be a great country in all
respects. Its vastness of territory;
its diversity of soil, climate and pro
ductions; its tremendous material
resources; its population and enter
prise make it a vast power. It is
now a country of 65,000,000 people.
Its military strength is very great.
Think of it. This country can upon
aa emergency put eight million able
bodied men in the field between 18
and 45 years old. The organized
strength of the States is 100,000
men. New York leads with 12,034
men; Pennsylvania next, with 8,367;
Ohio next, with 6,694; Massachusetts
fourth, with 4,757, and South Caro
lina fifth, with 4,457. North Caro
liaa has but 1,196. The Stab has
often urged that it should have
2,500 men. West Virginia has but
233. North Carolina stands seventh
but at the tail end.
; The unorganized strength is 7,020,
768 men. The grand aggregate of
organized and unorganized is 8,021,
605. Of course New York leads
with its 650,000 men; Pennsylvania
comes next with" 463,000; Ohio and
'Illinois have each 450,000. North
Carolina : is credited with 170,000,
Virginia with 00,000, and South
Carolina witlf 115,000. South Caro
lina has a larger organized foroe in
proportion to militia strength than
any other State. West Virginia has
the smallest in proportion to unor
ganized strength. These are the es
timates of the War Department and
were sent to the Congress by Secre
tary Endicott. ; - '
The death of Mr. W. W. Corcor
an, the venerated banker of Wash
ington City, will be received with
unaffected regret throughout the
South. He was a man of a high type.
He was a member bf the Episcopal
Church, and spent much of his great
fortune in behalf of suffering human
ity and in acts of beneficence. He
was a nobleman in the high sense df
that abused word an American no
bieman,without reproaoh and with
great virtues. He lived to au ad
vanced age ' and descends " to the
tomb honored, revered and loved.
But few of our country men have been
so generous, so benevolent, so sympathetic.-
His besto wrnents are almost!
iiumberless. He was born December
to be warmly cherishedjwitfr that of
George Peabody, nother "nbWeman
of the high American standard. r?It
can be said of Jtfr. Corcoran as well
as of any man . who hasjived in our
time: -
He bore without reproach
The grand old name of gentUman
f ' Senator Turpie came;to the Senate"
with a fine reputation for .eloquence.
He may be an orator but he evi
dently makes bad selections as to the
occasion and topic upon which, to
exerciee it. His first speech in the
Senate is in behalf of tbe grab-all
bill known as the "Dependent Pen
sion" bill. It is open to the gravest
objection and any man who supports
it places himself inevitably among
the demagogues. The Southbaa to
annually some $25,000,000 to take
care of all sorts of skulkers, bum
mers, bounty jumpers, and fiff-raff
that came into the South to burn,
ravage and kill. Turpie won't do.
CURRENT COMMENT.
The secret of editorial popu-
laritary is to take no sides on any
question. Trim, trim all the time.
Agree with everybody, and differ
from nobody. Let your paragraphs
be insipid truisms, and lei your lead
ers Steer wide of live issues. Go
with the current, and not against it.
Always be right on the goose ques
tion. Holston Methodist.
Cunning men of quick parts
affect Bilence and heaviness to gam
advantage as "weighty and deep,"
knowing how true the saying about
Sidney Smith, "He would have been
considered the wisest man if he had
not have been the wittiest." We re
sent any man's claim to be brilliant
and "safe." If he will confess to
stupidity, we will concede he is
"sound." Richmond Advocate.
Perhaps no single pen in Eng
lish literature has so debauched the
minds of men as that of "Junius."
This masked assassin was master
of tbe art of libelling, and he
exercised his deadly endowment
on Mansfield, and on Blackstone,
and Bedford, and Draper, and all
those whose objects and opinions he
could not assimilate to his own. And
his writings, false in their assertions,
cruel in their effects, and vicious in
their method, have for a century been
held up to the admiration of the
young and thoughtless, without a
word of warning, as a text book of
brilliant and animated style. Those
who have so represented "Junius,"
without such warning, might aa well
hold before future soldiers the nail of
Jael or the dagger of Gerard, or be
fore the budding divines the fires of
Smithfield, as tbe proper weapons of
carnal and spiritual warfare. I have
long thought it strange that this
newspaper ghoul was not deemed
more a monster than a mystery; and
it is apparent that he has nibbed
with gall half the controversial
goose quills of this country. "G.

SOUTH.
ON TUB
Southern Banquet Report in N. T. Times.
Mayor Hewitt raised the enthusi
asm to the boiling pitch. Said he:
"I have heard your fight spoken of
as the lost oiuse. It has paid you bet
ter than an r other cause. The South
never knew-what it is was to live and
prosper until it lost its cause. When
everything the South held most dear
was swept away, and you were weep
ing in the valley of the shadow of
death, you came to tbe resurrection
which is making the south the gar
den of this land, which is filling it
with wealth, wealth won by the la
bor of freemen and not of slaves.
Great applause. You never knew
what you had until you lost the frail
crop upon whioh you had planted
your fortunes. God had filled your
land with every element of wealth,
but it remained undeveloped in the
presence of the blight whioh
you neither understood, nor recog
nized. Now you have turned your
attention to the resources whioh God
has given you, and the irrepressible
conflict is taking a new shape. It is
a conflict between the manufacturing
States of the North and of the South,
and the victory is already perching
upon your banners. Great ap
plause. In the future production of
this country, it will be registered in
successive censuses, in fact before
the lapse of the century, that the
Southern States of the Union will far
outstrip Pennsylvania and the other
manufacturing States of the North.
It was the North that lost by the
outcome of the rebellion, not you.
The victory of the North was, in re
ality, its defeat, and in future the
greatest friend and supporter of Con
stitutional Union will be the South."

Anderson vs. Rainey.
In 1873 Anderson bought from
Rainey the 'Hobson tract," in Rock
ingham eounty, "containing 893
acres, more or less, at ten dollars an
acre, and paid 1,000 in cash and
gave notes for $7,930.
The deferred payments were not
duly made and in 1879 a new agree
ment was made about tbe pay
ments. ' In 1882, the notes not being paid,
Rainey brought suit, and Andeason
answered that there was a defect of
title as to a part of the land. In
1884 that suit was settled by the en
try of a compromise judgment, in
whioh it was set out that 10,490 are
ascertained to be due from Ander
son to Rainey and a deed was ex
ecuted to Anderson, who conveyed
the land to one Johnson in trust to
secure tbe payment of the same.
Subsequently Rainey died, and the
payments not being made, the trus
tee advertised to sell. Ander
son thereupon applied for an
injunction, on the ground that al
though the land had been conv-eyed
by metes and bounds, and although
the sale was per acre and not for the
tract, yet no survey had been made,
he being induced by representations
of Rainey to believe that there were
893 aores, whereas he alleged that
there were only 793 acres. But he
states that "plaintiff will not say that
Rainey knew. Baid representations to
be false and untrue."
Held, That as the contracts and
deeds call for "893 acres, more or
less," had a survey been had and a
difference of 10 or 20 acres been
found, the amount agreed to be paid
would not. be corrected, in the ab
sence of fraudulent representation;
and to make such representation
fraudulent ' it must be . false and
known to be false, and' made with in
tent to deceive;'or-ufiIe9s the discrep
ancy was so great as to lead to the
correction of' the contract on the
ground of mistake.
Bat under the facts of-this oase no
suoh claim could avail because of tbe
compromise of the action in 1884,
wherein the very question of quanti
ty of land was raised t by Anderson,
and an order for survey made on his
motion, and an abatement made for
failure of title to 25 or 30 acres.. By
ordinary diligence and care any mis
take or fraud might have 'been de
teoted and exposed before carrying
into effect the new contract embodied
in the compromised judgment, and
the plaintiff is not entitled to the re
lief asked.
Res ad judicata" applies to every
point which properly belongs to the
subject at issue, and which the par
ties by reasonable diligence ought to
have brought forward. The maxim
of caveat emptor applies where in the
purchase of land a party fails; to avail
himself of sources 6f information
