abduction on large scale in is48. by getting some
seventy on board the Schooner Pearl at Washington
City, and making for the North. A Steamer was
chartered and tie Pearl overbauled and taken just
as she had cleared The mouth OF the Potomac. Dray-
ton and Seares tried. convicted and sentenced TO
a long term of imprisonment, but pardoned out in
1852, by Mr.. Fillmore. Since then Drayton has
wandered about through the anliSlavery States sell

works. On Thursday last, he committed suicide at
New Bedford, Massachusetts,. We don't know what

RaT AS the train which arrived here this morning
was passing between Weldon and Godsboro'. during
last night, passenger named VIM. 2. Bailey, missed
his pocket book containing fifty dollars, which
he says in his pocket when he happened to fall
TO the sangway pass age through the centre of the
cars, the pocket in which the book was being next
to said passage. 1t would appear that his suspicious
fell upon passenger named John o. Stubs, who
sat on the opposite side of the passage MIR. Stubs
was arrested and brought this morning before w. T

abroad among The native troops, and The sentiment
also appears to be dfused throughout all ranks OF
the native population. The oslensbIe ground or &C.
casion for mutny in the native regimen the char.
acer of the grease served out for use 10 make the
cartridges sip down easily into The guns 1t seems
that the contractors had stipulated 10 supply grease
from mutton, but had, in place of it, furnished an ar
tcle made out of hogs lard and beef fat The Ma
hommedan soldiers regard the hog as an unclean an
mal and of course its grease as pollution, and Its
use violation OF their religion. The OK is sacred
animal among the Hindoos, and its employment ga
crlege; so they both kicked up.
1t is much questioned whether this is not merely
the excuse, and that, deeper and more extended
movement is concealed. The disaffection, and the
movements exhibiting it, are too general, and too
long continued after the withdrawal of the cause
assigned to admit of the whole matter being attribut'
ed to that. The most serious uneasiness 10 felt
among all connected with the Anglo Indian govern
ment, and very active measures of repression have
been resored to. The rule that built up British do
minion may be successful in counteracng any native
movements for it's overthrow. That rule has been
10 divide and SO govern. The Mahommedan will be
arrayed against the Hndoo and Ucc UersG. The Ben
galees against the Hill Tribes, and the Hill Tribes
against the BeDgalees. Still the affair shows that
there is an under current-a native 1ndia-with a
native Indian sentiment that may at any time become
dangerous especially should any serious misfortune
overtake the power which holds all classes in sub
lection.
For good or evil, the socalled stationary mind Of
the east is in state of feverish excitement without
parallel anywhere in the west. Causes beyond the
control knowledge of those ousde of the vast ma
ionaliiies of the Orient, are rousing their mions
to movements the nature extent and result of which
few can pretend to fathom. The east is no longer
mmobe,-f it ever has been-it is and has been
simply immoyable by any outside pressure.

NEwsPAI ER CHAKGE.--J. nj. Newsom, Esq, for.
mefly Editor of the Lincolnton Republican, has be-
come Joint Editor and Proprietor of the Salisbury
Banner, in connection with Mr.. Cannon.
The Banner speaks of the wheat crop between Sal
isbury and Shelby, the County seat Of Cleveland
County It promises to be abundant No rust or
other blghtng Influence is now anticipated.
In few weeks the Superintendent Of the Western
N. C.. Railroad will commence laying the iron track
from Salisbury west
MURDERER EsCAPED-Tbe RALEIGH Standard says
that DR.. j. r. S. Chapman, convicted at the last term
of GuiIford Superior Court of the murder of Miss
Pink, escaped from the Jail at Greensboro on Sat-
urday night last. He was under sentence of death,
but had taken appeal 10 the Supreme Court The
Sheriff Of Guilford offers reward of 800 Tor him
and the Governor of the Stale a reward Of $500.
The FIFTH DISTRICT-In order 10 carry the Fifth
Congressional District of this State, that formerly
presented by Mr.. Kerr, and recently by Mr.. Reade,
the Democrats will have 10 overcome an adverse
oty of 1910, that being the majority given for Mr..
Fillmore in November last. S. E. Williams, Esq,
Democrat, is fighting boldly and ably. Messrs Gil.
mer and Waddel are also going it strong, being
down on each other in PARTICULAR and Mr.. Williams
and the Democracy generally. There is little or no
excitement.
Hon. Abraham Eencber is to be the new Governor
of New Mexico. The appointment to give
general satisfaction.
CRUSHED HIS SKULL.-On Saturday night last, two
negroes, one train hand on the w. & M. R. R., and
the other belonging to Gen. Haree, got into quar-
rell at Mars Bluff when the former struck the latter
over the head with fence rail- crushing the skull
But little hope is entertained of his recovery. This
is not strictly North Carolina item, but amounts to
the same thing.
CROPS IN SAMPSON. Clinton Independent says
that the present prospect of crops in Sampson is very
good. 1t is believed that if contingency arises
there will be more corn made in Sampsonhis year
than before. The Independent in another article
mentions circumstance going 10 show that the
Sampson farmers deserve to have good crops. The
principal farmers of the county who could have got
easily 81 rs per bushel for corn from Spectators
have sold none over one dollar, at which rate they
disposed of it to those actually in need Of corn.

We have clergymen by the hundred who understand
the Constitution Of the United States better chan the
Judges of the Supreme Court, and who, had hey
been called upon to administer the government dur

vantages which no secular ability and experience
have been able to combine, by giving to the anti
slavery sentiment of the North its utmost demands,
and yet binding more closely together the bands o.
the Union. The government which man carries on
