"We propose next week to elabo
rate the report published in our
last, regarding taxation in Edge
combe. We stated then that it wae
the heariest taxed county in the
State.
A petrified human skull of pe

Everything Quiet
We are not a blood thirsty peo
pl. On the contrary we are,
nationally, gentle as lambs and tame
as sucking doves. The following
is a paragraph in Wednesday's
telegram.
"John Perinman killed his broth
er at Greenville ; one jealous negro
killed another in Madison County
Illinois; Cokewood killed Gurrell
at Oakland: Miss Smith killed
Owens with a dirk at mount Sterl

And yet the weather was un-

auspicious season, with an improved
humor we have no doubt the record
of peace, gentleness and good will
toward men would have been liner

Ben. Buttler has been before the
congressional committee on war
expenditures. Benjamin, the
prince of sposnist3 as usual got
away with the committee. He
knows nothing. Had carried an on
investigation on his own account,
for his own purposes. 7ad his
suspicions but there was nothing
tangible. He thought it strange
that Pendleton should have his
fee cut up and the amount receiv
ed by Mrs Bower should fit one of
the parts. He left the committee
with the impression that he knew
something, which they had not the
shrewdness to elicit.
The man or set of men that can
surround Ben must rise early in
fact they had better not retire at
all.

The radieals, individually and
collectively are moving heaven and
earth to unearth a mite against the
democratic party. In this pursuit
they are entirely unscrupulous.
The latest outrage was perpetrated
on Gen. W. R. Cox, Chairman ef
the Democratic Executive Commit
tee. On Thursday last he was
ruthlessly arrested at the instance
of Dr. B. M. Norment for alleged
conspiracy with the Robeson coun
ty commissioners in defrauding
Dr. N. of his election to the late
Convention. 77e was taken before
U. S. Commissioner Cassiday for
examination. No evidence being
found, he was summarily discharg
ed. On Saturday night the General
was serenaded and made a speech
from the balcoay ef the Purcell,
House stirring ia tone and patriotic
in appeal.

Instead of strife and bitterness
between the two conservative Dailies
at the State capital, we should have
"harmony at thu centre.7' It is
damaging, unutt'i ibly so, just on

to show a divided front. With the

Wholesab Stealing.
The national air is rife with
theft and rumors of theft. The
democratic House of Kepresenta
uvea is cleaning out the augian
staoias with groat vizor and re-
entlessness. And they go for
rogue whether in the guise ot re
publican or democrat, as shown in
the case of Pendleton. Wherever a
committee has stuck its finger, it
has gone np to the elbow ia rot
tenness.
From the white House to the
post tradership at Fort Sill all is
rottenness. The brother Orvilles,
brothers-in-law Caseys, Babcocks,
Belknaps, Schencks, all have used
the government as legitimate prey
on which to pilfer and plunder.
With eyes closed, and cheeks dis
tended their.mouths have ben fag
tened on the public teat and they
have nearly sacked the old mother
dry. Poor old Columbia, little did
our ancestors imagine thy fate
weuld be so melancholy, and thy
wounds so poignant, all received at
the hands of thy guardians.

Provincial papers indeed all
North Carolina journals outside

Raleigh Nem and Sentinel. That
it would areve disastrous to the

In union there is strength. We

of the Conservative party was with
the Metropolitan Journals, as with
as, paramount to individual feeling
and private ends. That wt wer
wefuHy mistaken was abundantly
proven by the denoument on
Thursday, culminating in a suit
against the stockholders of the Ral
eigh News for 50.000, and a war
rant for libel against Mr. Turner o
the Sentinel and W. H. Hewerten

Now the News must act different

We must not be understood to en

If its blows instead of boiog aimed
at Conservatives, had been deliver
ed against the radical phalanx, it
could have done the party more
good. First whip the enemy then

Donn Piatt is to bo believed, some

the writing of anonymous letters by
one ladv of the Cabinet, exposing the

Mast likelv this is all true; at least
the greater part of it is officially
proven and publicly known to be.
I mention it only because, taken with
pending exposures in the immediate
amily of the Jf resident, in connec
tion with post-traderships and the
ike petty infamies, it shows a con
dition of things which would have
swept any Chief Executive, at any
other time, eut of his seat, as soon as
th forms of law could be complied
with, and without waiting for an elec
tion, and have broken any party to
atoms.
Yet in the face of all this, New
Hampshire gives its old fashioned
Republican majority. Domocradc Con
necticut is in doubt, and the town
elections everywhere in the North
show Republican trains. The beat

infallibly reBent any supposed insult
to the cause they fought for or any

It was not the inflammatory spech

that drove the volunteer soldiers of
New Hampshire to the polls, a com

any principles of government or not,
is a question, tbac a wise minority
will discuss when disiius&ion will help
their cause, or at least when it will
not prolong and intesify the evils
from which they and their constituents
suffer. There is yet time for Lamar

is full time for Hill and loombs and
Tucker to be silent
The proceeding in Congress for
the past week have be n unimportant,
the absence of Marsh preventin
the Judiciany oommittee from pre
senting the article of impeachment
against Belknap, but having been
granted immunity ho will be here on
Wednesday and the trial will soon
commence. The exeoutive, legisla
tive and Judicial appropriation bill
is being discussed and it is said that
the JNew ilampenire election nas so
emboldened the Radical Senators
that they intend to resist the reduc
tion made by the House.
Senator Conklin seems to have a
strange idea of propriety and of his
duty as a Senator. He is known to
be more powerful than any other
Senator in securing appointments or
removals in the departments, and yet
he went before the Board of Appeals
sf the Patent office and as attorney
for one of the parties in "the inter
ference case" of Surgut against Yale
made an arguemect, extending over
part of twojdays ! Of course he won
his case, as members of the board
could be removed at his word.
