A BACKWARD MOVEMENT.

A North Carolina Court, emulous of &C.
quiring fame equal to that of Massachu
sets two hundred years ago, and of Con.
necticut little later-the one for her per.
sccutions of witches and the other for her
Blue Laws, has deciled that Univcr$alists
shall not be deemed competent witnesses in
court of justice This is due to the pc.
cular religious belief Of these people. We
wonder that the North Carolinians left the
task to court and have not embodied the
bigotry indicated by the ruling of the court
in an enactment of the State Legislature to
I've called-somewha as follows:
An act to increase all offences against
the persons and property of the people
known as lnvcrsalists-such as murder,
robbery, forgery, brutal assaults, batteries,
obtaining goods under false pretenscs, viola
tions of contract and all olh"r acts ordina-
rily considered crimes, and against the peace
of this commonwealth, and to convert the
same offences into harmless amusement"
For the ruling of the court will have pre-
ciscly the effect of encouraging crime against
the class Of people against whom the dccis-
ion of the court has been made. Doubtless
it would give the judge great pleasure 10 set
society back Century or two, and We dare
say that at times it must strike him with Pc
culiar regret that there arc no such exhilra-
ting spcctaclcs as auto da .tes nowadays, ut
which a judge could preside and rejoice his
soul with the agosies Of the heretics.
1t is absurd and disgrace to the age in
which We live to make Il judicial oath de-
pend upon the religious taitIl of any one. 1t
has been long discovered by those who have
made the subject u study, that the purity of
the witness box and the sanctity of the oath
III all cases, Is preserved by the civil enact
mrnts providing punishments for perjury,
and that the faith of men has no effect what
ever. Those who would lie i'll court would
liz any where, and those who are truthful
outside Of court-would never descend to
falschood i'll court, where they are far morc
exposed to detection by counsel than any
where else. Let North Carolina como back
into the nineteenth century again.-New

GOING UP AND COMING DOWN.

This is simple song, 'tis true,
And songs like those are ne ;C- nice;
And yet we'll try and scatter through
A pinch or two of good advice.
Then listen, pompous friend, and learn
Never to boast of much renown;
For fortunes wheel is on the turn,
And some 60 up and some come down.
We know vast amount Of stocks
A vast amount of pride insures;
But fate has picked so many locks
We wouldn't like to warrant yours
Remember, then and never spurn
The one whose hand is hard and brown;
For he is likely to 60 up,
And YOU are likely to come down.
Another thing you will agree,
(The truth may be as well confessed,
That Goldfish aristocracy"
Is but "scaly" thing al best.
And though the fishes large and strong
May seek the little ones to drown,
Yet fishes all, both great aud small,
Are going up anu coming down.
Our lives are full Of chance and change,
And chance" you know, is never sure,
And 'twcre doctrine new and strange
That places high arc most secure.
And though the fickle god may smile,
And yield the scrGptrc and the crown,
'Tis only for little while;
Then goes mp and A comes down.
This world for you and me, my friend,
Hath something moro than pounds and pence
Then let us hulnbly recommend
A little use of common sense;
Thus lay all pride and place aside,
And have a care on whom you frown,
For fear you'll see him going up,
