PARRoTT VS.. PoRT.-William s. PARROT, esq. !,
who received an award under the late Board Of
Commissioners on claims against Mexico, is the
gentleman, we understand, who first divulged
the fact that A. ]. Port, esq, formerly of Mex
leo, had informed him Of a confession made to
him by DR.. George A. Gardiner, in New York,
the night before Gardiner sailed for Europe,
that the Gardner claim was all forgery.
Mr. Port has come on to this city, and, in a
letter published in the e Union" of yesterday, he
declares that he never has made to anybody
such declaration relative to DR.. Gardeners
confession as he has been charged with
In the mean time, the New York Herald, of
Saturday last, states that two gentlemen of
character and probity have authorized the edi-
tor Of that paper to say, that to each Of them
Mr.. Port did make the statement relative to
DR.. Gardeners confession, which he has been
charged with.
One of these two gentlemen is probably Mr..
PARROT, who is expected to be in this city to-
day. So the crisis is at hand, and the public
will soon be able to decide between Parrot and
Port advisedly
Later.--Mr. Port is to-day before the Grand
Jury. PARROT has not been reached by the
summons issued for his appearance The opin-
ion prevails at the Courthouse that upon the
reception Of Ports testimony the case will be
dismissed.
P. s. The Union of yesterday failed to reach
us until the hour Of our going to press, or we
should have copied entire the article it contains
on the subject of this Gardiner Claim"

aspen trees growing around throw kind Of

The Mountain Banner.

The Mountain Banner. with seeming exulta-
lion, remarks. that the Iiilshorough Recorder is
the only paper he had seen that had assumed
10 arraign the jury in the case of w. w. Avery,
esq" II this were true, it would lie Distinction
from which we should have no disposition 10
shrink. We believe we have hut spoken the
common sentiment Of the community in which
I'VE live. We have heard but one opinion in the
matter, and that is unqualified condemnation.
But tho Banner has doubtless by this time seen
that the Hillsborough Recorder is not alone.
Other papers, the Wilmington Journal, the Fay
cttevillc Observer, the marlborough Argus,
have spoken with equal clearness; and the RAJ
leigh Register and Salisbury Waterman have
shown concurrence Of opinion by copying their
articles. We alc proud in the belief that when
ever the Press of North Carolina speaks il will
display christian spirit and reverence for law,
which we would fain hope the Banner will some
day learn how to respect.
. But the Banner thinks we have used a bold
Expression when we say that we kn0U that the
deed of blood perpetratcd in the court house in
Morganton " is mol justified in the sight Of God"
iIc thinks mo man can presume TO know what
God justfes and what he does not.' Without
professing TO be saints" we think il not unbe-
coming in us to apresune TO know" what God has
ekarly revealed. His book is given 10 us as a
sure guide; it is the foundation upon which rests
tile superstructure of civil society it is the foun-
tam from which flows all our present blessings
and future hopes. Without it we should be but
a hation Of savages. fthe editor Of the Banner
will look into That book he will see that we have
M spoken without authority when we condemn
ths deliberate killing Of human being.
The course Of the Banner has conferred no
benefit upon Mr.. Avery. 1t has inflicted deep
er wound upon his characto, than Mr: Fleming
ecdld have done'hai he lived adjusted years.
