and other nations have been quick to
come to its assistance, even before
the cry for aid went up. Shiploads
of fugitives have been carried out
the stricken zone to Naples, Paler
mo, Catania and other ports, and
according to the Minister of Marine,
rescue vessels to the number of 36
are now centered in the Strait of
Messina, and 5.000 soldiers are being
landed on the two coasts. "
Most important of all now is the
question of the living. Thousands of
those who escaped the falling walls
and the sweep of the tide are starv
ing and without clothes or shelter.
They can scarcely longer - survive
their sufferings.. The first thought
has been to carry food and covering
for these helpless people, and it has
now been decided by the govern
ment to send a fleet of emigrant
steamers to transport them to other
places.

were successful were attacked by
others with revolvers and knives;;
and were obliged to defend their
finds literally with their lives. The
struggle was fierce. The famished
men threw themselves upon each

disemboweled in defending a hand

was pinned to, a plank by a knife,

Judge Risden Tyler Bennelt, of
Wadesboro, who is. as the Wilming
ton Star says, always advancing some
new idea for the benefit or relief of
the people, suggests- the establish
ment of Courts of Arbitration to try
such civil cases as the plaintiff in
bringing the suitv may designate
that as the mode of trial desired, the
judgment rendered to be docketed
as now. He suggests that, such
court should consist of two lawyers
and one layman, and should "sit in
vacation." His purpose,, -of course,
is to relieve the congested condition
of the courts, to give speedy trials of
civil cases and to reduce cost of liti
gation. It would seem to the Chron
icle that this suggestion by Judge
Bennett is worthy of . disiussion
