HII.I.NBUHO, The Raleigh corres pontic nee of the Wilmington Messenger makes a suggest ive remark about the development ot Not tli Carolina that there are only two towns in it that are not growing, Ilills anil Snow Hill. This latter has never been conspicuous: it has never been more than a modcsL country villagi ami county seat. Hut the other is asso ciated with the earliest history of interior North Carolina, ami associated with tin lives ami fame of some of grandest names in our State history. It is oneof the old est of our towns, laid out as a county seat in 1 75 under the name of Childs lioro, taking the name of Hillshoro under t he administration of the royal iovenir Tryon, foremost and famous in the trou bles and exploits of the Uegulators, its focus and hot bed, the place from whicha governor of North Carolina was seized and hurried otV by Tories to anothei State, the headquarters of Lord Corn. wallis and rendezvous for his troops be fore his march to his ill starred victory at r.tiilford Court House, the seat of the State convention which discussed and re jected in 17S7 the constitution of the I'nited States submitted to the several States for adopt ion, and until Kalcigh was lixed upon as a State capital, one of tin. places of meeting of the legislature. Ami added to this, tor very many years, Hills horo has or had been the home of most distinguished men, illustrious in military and civic annals, among whom we may recall without chronologic order Thomas Hart Kenton, t icneral Francis Nash. Cioveruur Kurkc, Willie I. Mauguin. Ihmcan Cameron, Thomas KiuTitt, tathc and son, Frederick Nash, Judge Bailev Judge Manly l to vet nor (iraham. Cadwal- lader Jones, Hugh Waddcll, ami a large numbcrofnthcrs, who at onetime and foi a long time gave an intellectual, political and soci.d eminence to Hillshoro not sur passed, if equalled, by any town in tin State. It was a long time an educational centre, and here the famous Kinghani school first achieved its distinction. It was early sought as a pleasure resort by the people of the coast towns, Wilming ton and Newoern; and has always hi en noted lor the culture and refinement oi its citizens. Perhaps itspeoplc relied too much upon the reputation of the past. It is certain it has not kept up with the march ol progress. With a railroad running by it. it has formed the single exception in the State where a railroad has proved a source of weakness rather than ot strength; ami decay, not growth, is us present characteristic. Yet recovery is not impossible. Man individually cannot re new his ruuth and vigor. Towns and communities mav do so, localise thev are composed of ever renewed and fresh com ponents. And the time may come when Hillshoro may renew its youth and join in the animated ma-eh into whose cur rent all the other towns of the State have fallen all except Snow Hill, her obscure companion in misery. of the latter law. On the contrary it ex acts oliediencc so exact and implicit as to have brought upon them the reproach of counselling and enforcing unmanly servility. And it is the indejxndence of manhood, asserting itself as sujxrior both to hum. mi and divine law, that threatens to throw the gate oen to mob law, and in its success to overthrow and efface both the safe guards and barriers erected against the excesses of wild hu man nature. THi: FAttMl Hf' ALIJAMi;. We publish elsewhere a communication from a member of the Alliance contro verting the assertion of an Asheville cor respondent of a Knoxville paper that the organization is working in alliance with the Republican parly.' The assertion seems to us absurd on its face; for whiU there may be prominent Republicans in it, so there are many more, and more prominent. Oeniocrats. What there mn be in the future we cannot prophecy ; the Farmers' Alliance may become a power ful factor in party politics. At present it -ieeius to be doing exactly what we have counselled the farmers many a time to do: to organize for the protection and advancement of their own interests, and not submit themselves to the mercy oi ill the other avocations which have or ganized. The farmers, above all other men, should have intelligent understand ing of their relations to commerce, to production, to supply and demand, to markets, to prices and the causes of de pressions, fluctuations, and enhancement l prices, to the operations of combina tions to control themarketsand influence , prices, to the effects of trusts, to the i tgencies of cornets and futures, etc.; and, doing this effectively and earnestly, the Alliance will have enough to do without L'utangliug itsell in the meshes of parly politics. We extract the following from the Tracy City, Tenn., News, which tills our idea of what the Alliance is and what its )bjeets are : Asa general rule, the farmer is uu- hangcablc in politic, and, when he has mce accepted the doctrines of a party. ;io trivial affair will change htm. If he is i hetnoernt be will tight for his party; il lie is a Republican he will do the same. The union is composed oi men trom al: parlies, banded together for thcirinulual iciietit. and they are poMcd enough to ee that they cannot gain their desired mis through the medium ot politics, and . hey should promptly sit down on any ;nau wlm, to forward a little scheme oi lis own, would run the organization (ground.

But when communities rise up as one man to vindicate the character and proclaim the innocence of a fellow member, we have a conviction amounting to satisfactory conclusion that they are right. It seems then unavoidable to reach the In-lief that a great irreparable cruel wrong was done on a man no way implicated in Un charge for which he was made to sutler, and that a hasty irrevocable act compli cates a part of the citizens of Burke county in an act of murder, committed without the usual provocations which frenzy men's blood licyond control. Some palliation might be offered if the cer tainly designated rublicr or ravisher had stood before them. Here suspicion was the only guide; aud the blow was struck quickly and in the dark on the possible plea that a guilty man might escae otli erwise. And here comes in the wrong of senti ment we rcmemlwr to have seen expressed by the Greensboro Workman a tew davs ago. Commenting upon the delays and uncertainties of the law as provoking to lynch law, the Workman argues upon the necessity of quick execution of justice, implying almost a denial of the ordinary rights of the accused to establish his in nocence by the introduction ot testimony; and cites as authority for this quick jus tice, the death of Ananias and Sapphira who fell dead before their Judge and in the presence of their accusers. Here there cim be no psssihdity of analogy between the administration of human justice, and in this the awful expression of divine an ger at an act ot oien blasphemy, hut even in a human point of view, "in this case guilt was certain; it was consuma- ted and avowed in the very presence of tne Judge Holding the divine commission: and the fearful penalty was exacted so summarily that the commission might be ratified, and man might know bv example the cost of impiety, the violation oi di vine, not human law.
