They, therefore . e to make a present living by the . idlest? possible! means, and often need Iebsly if not purposely, exhaust the soil and waste the timber. And sAch will continue tcj bo thcrcase as long as the present system remains, ror the present system of a homestead for life only is ho remedy for the evil complained of which effects the bedv politic, bnt ?.;her, an agra.yat:on of it.

This will edy the evil entirely after the lapse of darter ot a century, and partially rem L it atxnce. fi For until the present tstem wears out, it cannot be fully ; ot meant to condemn t!ie prcs- em in all its parts, or those who 0ated it. It has suved thousands of fahiilies from beggary, and has given great relief to individuals. Bu it can : not give? any part of the relief wanted by the State as a. body politic. The pro posed Amendment gives all the individr ual relief given by the present system and supplies all that is wanted by the State. i. ; ' Here is n case equally interesting. ' Gen. L G Estes, a carpet-bagger, was Internal Revenue Collector for the 3rd N. C. District, and a defaulter, it -was first stated, to the amount ; of $34,000. We have recently heard the defalcation exceeds $61X00. Gen. J. C. Abbott, another; carpet-bagger, and all the way from t5on cord; New Hampshire, rioSwf or recently of Abbottsbnrg, near his frietids, the; LoWery's, is one of the other Genl's. sureties. This brace of Geuls., bo it remember ed,, figured, in the stealings of that jother General, Liitlefield, to the tune of about 50,000 dollars, is appears in the report ef the Fraud Investigating Committee. Now these cosmopolitan rascals were, as shown by Abbott's own testimony, in copartnership. f Abbottsbnrg, these ; fellows will teU us, , has not been built up with mqney filched from the people of this State, but nobody will believe them. This is a little, digression from the . main point of. this interesting case, . but we think it 'will stick, j ;! ''---.'" Now we know that the aforesaid Gen. J. C. Abbott has felt a deep interest in his friend, the other Getisral, L. G. Ej- tes and his fiancial success. ' So the first General above named hav iug held a seat in1 the U.S. Senate through political intrigue, villainy, and corruption, to. the great 'shame and dis gust of every rightrainded citizen of the State, did, whilst misrepresenting ,4ie good people of the dear old State, im portune, beg, beseaeh, and implore the powers that be in the city of Washing ton? to comprotnise - said defalcation on payment of $15,000. The people will readily observe that this was only anoth er vay to' pa)ofd debts tyjthe aforesaill, and by which settlement theise carpet-bag gentry would put into their own pockets the difference between $3400 or 01, 000, whichever sum the defalcation a- mounts to. " ! What we desire to know now, is,-what has become of this large amount of the peoples money that was paid unto the hands of that other General by the hard woi king people for the pnrpoae of pay- in off the 'debt of the iSation lias Abbott got it ? 'Has Estes got it or have they got it conjointly? We know the Treasury of the United States is without it. : Ila-j the Obmmissioner of 'Internal Revenue compromised this hvge defal cation with these Generals upon paynieut of j a lew! thousand, dollars 1. " We the people" have the right to know. Men aud brethren, how long? oh ! how much longer can you tolerate these carpet-bag viihures. INFAMOUS JOHN POOL.'
