WHAT THE PRESS OF OUR STATE HAS TO SAY ABOUT MEN AND MEASURES. As it Appears to Our Brethren of the Quill in North Carolina On Political and other Questions. One solon did not want to tax dogs, because many people would kill their dogs rather than to pay tax, and he did not want to be a party - to such inhumanity. We do not sup pose that he cousiderers it inhuman to keep dogs to kill sheep and bite children, nor is it inhuman in his estimation for a man to have so many dogs that his family, or the dogs are on tne versre of starvation . at all times, as is the case in more than one instance.

Mr. Charles Weisenger, a Richmond drummer, connected with the bouse of Stephen Putney & Co., who re turned tonight from Lee Courthouse, Va., .relates a singular adventure which befell him at Hubbard Springs, a town near the Tennessee border. When he reached the place he found at the village was in the hands of outlaws and a Teign of terror pre vailed. While passing down the road several of the desperadoes, who were ambushed in a house,; mistook him for a detective and were pre paring -to shoot him when one of their party recognized him and checked them in their desperate pur pose. Rash Morgan, the leader of the gang of outlaws, was killed by one of the citizens. Mr. Weisenger left the town on the first train. Peary's Next Expedition. Springfield, Mass,, February 7 Lieutenant R. E. Peary said ill an interview today that his second Arctic expedition would set out from Philadelphia' the last of June and would go by ship to Greenland and thence north by sledge. He expect ed to reach a point for beyond what has before been attained. Surveys of the north coast of Greenland, fur. ther discoveries, and geographical and ethnological studies are the objects of the trip. Mrs. Peary has not decided whether she will go or not. About ten men will constitute the party, and they expect to be gone about two years. The equipment will be about ; the same as for the last expeditions, ; including, . i however, more and better instruments for sur veying. Tbe costofthe expedition will be about $25.-000, and this sum the Lieutenat is trying to raise by lectures.
