Representative Bower pas appointed Mr. Henry W. But ner, of Surry county, Military cadet to West Point. Representative Bower has in troduced a bill to pay Davjen port Female College, Lenoiri C. , $500 for spoliation at - fche time of Stoneman's raid through this country. It' is, no doi bt, a just bill and ought to be passed but the idea of Mr. Bower h'av- ing the courage of insinuating to the. Northern Republicans that their old comrade, Mr. Stoneman, was capable of com mitting such a thing as "sppli ation" is too dreadful to think of. They'll be wanting to hang him on ar"souj; apple tree," short notice. on The Chronicle is not aware whence comes the losric which accuses Gov. Carr of paying off a "personal debt with a public office, because he appom fced Jarvis Senator. Because JaH vis assisted Carr personally, to cbn duct the campaign, are we to p" call . it a "personal service Did not the Democratic pak-ty select Carr in ooen conventi as its standard bearer head of the party? And not any service done in campaign, though done in Was i he he very presence of the chosen leader, a service to the party instead of a "personal service?" Is it called service to the party vvhen away from the presence of the leader: .'but "personal service" when in his presence? We mention this for the sake of justice, not that we approve 1he appointment. In fact we are of the honest opinion that .the ap pointment was not proper cne and contrary to good politics. It will, probably result in leav ing both Ransom and Jarvis at liome and raising a serious split in the Democracy of the btate, and especially in the east. District Att'y. R. B. Glenh's letter to the U. S. Commission ers, in another column, is n the right track and may thr6w a little Bomb into the Repunli can camp, as the whole set Western .North Carolina, i everywhere else so far as know, are Republicans, course under a Democratic ministration, it is their prer ative, for party's, sake, to up all the muss possible and.

It seems that the crowd was tak ing frequent installments of "liver regulator," and were in a mellow coadii'on. Tiie train in turning around curves won d jostle the crowd toare.ber and everybody took a notion that everybody was trying t'o insult him, and, of course, a general row ensued. They sa.v things were lively for a while and blood was not to huDt for. The ' wounded men, at last accounts, were doing very well. Grimes is more seriously hurt than the others, but his wounds are not expected to prove fatal. The Yery Place. There is talk of the erection, at this place, of a spoke and handle and shuttle factory. We would be delighted to se this improvement become a reality in our midst, mere is no rea i m i j son that it would not pay here. The situation is accessable to a ! scope of country in which is an aoandance of timber suitable j.1 1IT1 -i. 1 Mor me purposes. vv line oaK i and hickory are plentiful for I spokes and handles; the clog on J wood and persimmon, the tim he :r used for shuttles, is found in abundance, and of the best ! quality. ! With the timber handy and j 1 cheap, and labor cheap, why I would it no't pay a good divi de'nd ? Another department could be a4ded and would pay the manufacture of barrels. There are thousands of barrels used ill the county, and instead of sending to a distance for them, and in many cases they are made from Wilkes timber, which has been shipped away they should be manufactured right here Why send our tim ber away and then asisoon a it is manufactured have to buy it back again ? Our chestnut oak of which we have a large quan tity and of magnificent quality, is splendidly fitted for barrels. Let the factory be erected. : , a,i np Attoraly Glenn's Letter to the U. S.

To prevent this I now state : I will approve1 no war rant, unless the Commissioner endorses on its back, that he believes the " prose cution should be . commenced, and if when said case is returned to court find that it ia frivolous and not such as should have been commenced, I will re fuse to approve the account of the Com missioner for his fees in'such -case. This will make it necessary for the Commis sioners to examine the witnesses . more thoroughly -before issueing warrants.

I am determined f to stop so, many cases of this kind . com "ig to court, ana as no j uuge, oi mu District has consented (o suspend a Comj ing to court, and as the ' Judge, of the missioner upon my application, I will do so in cases where I find they are vio- lofin iu t rt,t T desire: that all the Commit --".oners join me in! suppressing flagrant violation of the laws, and seeing that such offenders shall receive such punishment as will I stop them and deter others, but I also XT I ... . . . , tU i want them to aid me m Clearing nc I , , . r dockets of sue a tn-iii pear upon them.

Reporter." Where Are We 1 Do the Wilkesboro and N. Wilkes - boro Presbyterian cKirchcs belong to the Concord or Orange Presbytery ? If to the Orange, then bjr what authority was our connection with the Concord Presbytery severed? Has there been such a church action in the matter as would legally take us out of the one and put usinta the other? How can a church legally dissolve its correction with the Presbj'iery to which it belongs and attach itsejf to another? Can this be done by a petition, merely signed and signed only by , one Ortwo members of the church, official in character though they be? Or must it be done through the church in conference as sembled, and after due notice has been given ? These are questions relating to i church polity and our connection with Presbytery, which I desire to raise through the columns of the Chronicle, and which, for my own information as well as others, I desire to be answered. If the Rev. Mr. Robison's interpreta tion of the law, governing' Presbyterian churches, be correct, then our relations, Presbyterily considered, are settled be yond dispute. We are still members of the Concord Presbytery. We have not been legally taken out. IT, in selecting a pastor, or a supply, the laws of the church require a meeting of the congre gation, and a notice of ten days to make the call, then, unquestionably, for a church to dissolve it's connection with one Presbj'tery and attach itself to an other, an action .certainly not less important with respect to the gen eral welfare of the church, nothing less than this would be required to make the change. The officers of a church are not the church, but only a part of it. They are it's servants, or agents, through whom it transacts it's business, and no act of theirs pertaining to church man agement, is of any legal fprce, without the sanction of the power that made them.
