We ere glad to nee that Benator Pritchard hM nolved the Wllaon post-office affair by recommending Dr. Penon for poitmanter. We learn that the Democratic Itedshirt Mach ine of Wilson are fighting Dr. Per son's confirmation on ,the ground that he la a man of "violent temper and dangerous" etc. This evidently means that the machine considers him to be a man of such character and courage that they can neither use him nor intimidate him; and there fore, their opposition on this ground should be their strongest recomend atlon. Dr. Person has been In the fore front of all the political conUsts In Mr. J. C. L. Bird Mate Cmm Ctoga of Crlty by IaltBtUry OffleUls. Col. Olds may disclaim npon.I bility for the article copied In your paper from The Atlanta Constitution and The News and Observer may declare It a big fake story:" but it was the naked, unvarnished truth. In fact, the author of that article did not do the subject justice, lie told only a part of the truth, for the conduct of the penitentiary au thorities In removing those convicts at the time, and in the manner it was done, Is a shame an J a d if grace to a civilized people. The camp where they had been quartered is Twenty-six miles from Marion. The road is the worst road In North Carolina Superintendent Mann had drivtn over it only a day or two before In the best rig the livery could furnish, and he was loud In his denudation of the con dition of the road. The weather was Intensely cold. The streams on the Mitchell side of the mountain were frozen over and the convicts walked across on the ice. Shackled together, two and two they marched over the frozen mud to the top of the mountain. On the McDowell side, it was not frozen hard enough to bear up the weight of a man so the menwere forced to march in mud,-in the middle of the road, from six inches to two feet deep and wade the streams. As the men dragged one foot after another, a truth of the above statement, viz: B. B Price, Geo. I. White, J. O. Xeal, IV. T. Morgan, D. N. Linson, W. W. Cooper, John Yancey. Jr., B.S. Cooper, W.

He has the confl denceofthe people of all parties; Is hoe wout,d come, ?14in the mud of good family and high a man character, and deserves the position. It Is natural that the redshirt mach should desire either Vick, the negro for postmaster, white man whom they could either use or Intimidate or at least whose conrage and strength of character they would have no cause to fear.

The shackles that bound them together were cov ered with frozen mud, and in many instances were large as the arm of a man The mud was so deep lint the shackle could not be held above it, and was dragged through it. They were wet. muddy, tired, worn completely out and almost dying. The guards would not allow them to march on the store sidewalks of the town, but kept them in the middle of the muddy streets. Two poor fel'ows, win had fainted 0'i the way, came in behind the others, one of them faltered in the street, and said he could go no further. He was ordered to move on. A citizen John Yancey, Jr, begged the guard to march the men on the sidewalk, and thus, they were par tially relieved. They were march ed to the cars, fed on nothing but cold bread and cold fat back. They were given a very small portion of corn whiskey, about a gallon for 160 men. Fifteea to twenty of the men were unable to walk, and were hauled in wagons. In one wagon were five men unable to hold up their heads, so a driver informs me. One of the drivers of tne wagon told me that they were given water about twice on the way. Finally, years ol the guard bf caine tired of listening, Halifax to the groans and requests for water and told them, "You need a damn eood whipping shut your damn mouths.'

These are the enervating days, when, as somebody has said, men drop by the sunstroke as if the day fire had dawned. They are fraught with danger to people whose systems are poorly sustained; and this leads us to aay, in the interest of the less robust of our readers, that the fall effect of flood's Sarsaparilla is such as to suggest the propriety of call ing this medicine something besides a blood purifier and tonic, say, a sustaining diet. It makes it much easier to bear the heat, assures re freshing 6leep, and will without any ooubt avert much sickness at this time of year. The whole state will hear with deep regret of the sudden and un timely death of ex-Congressman Moody of Waynesvllle. He left Washington a few days ago suffer ing with an attack of grip, and threatened with what seemed to be pneumonia. He died of congestion of the lungs. He was a rugged mountaineer with considerable talent and served acceptably in several legislatures of the state, made a good record as Major in the Spanish War, and was Just finishing his flt term In Congress. Escaped and Awful Fate Mr. H. Haggins of Melbourne, Fla., writes, "My doctor told me I had Consumption and nothing could be done for me. I was given up to die.

If it was necessary to remove them, certainly any reasonable man knows that 26 miles is too far to march men, shackled together, in one day. One mile is too far to march them through mud as deep as the mud is on that road. Such conduct of the authorities deserves the most severe condemnation, and should be at once investigated.
