\ NICE SOUTHERN MAN.-The Raleigh Register is
the leading Opposition Know Nothing organ in this
State. 1t is the recognized expounder of the creed
OF the faithful and master of ceremonies generally.
Only few days since it claimed four of the eight
Congressional districts in the State and designated
them as "our four Districts" Among "our dis
trcts he places this and coolly assumes the cleo
ton of Mr.. Vance. We desire the people to know
the position the Register occupies on the all impor-
tant question of Southern Rights. In its issue of
last week the Editor says:
eve say that as between an Abolitionist or Black
Republican and Democrat we will make no
choice"
Southern Rights men of the Mountain District
can you follow the lead of such man? Between a
Black Republican and Democrat he would have no
choice! Between the foul Abolitionists Seward and
that pure patriot James Buchanan, or between the
Infamous and dastardly Summer of Massachusetts,
and the noble Hammond of South Carolina, he
would be neutral! Is such man true to the South,
and are Southern men to throw up their hats and
huzzah at his bidding? Is he the great gun of
North Carolina Opposition" and will the freemen
of this District quietly work in the harness under
such leader?
This avowal on the part of the Register proves
conclusvely to our mind the existence of coalition
between the Black Republicans north and portion
of the Opposition leaders south. They have banded
together to break down the Democratic party, which,
in the present condition of parties equivalent to
breaking down the Government ITSELF It remains
to be seen whether the people will connive at and
aid in the foul plot, or whether they will indignant
y spurn the unholly alliance and Danish to merited
obscurity the men who have dared thus to triAe
with their most sacred rights. Let the people an

The SCENE OF TIE LATE BATTIE-There is cir
cumstance in connection with the Of the late
battle of Solferino which would to prove that
the Austrians selected that ground for the engage
ment with an admirable stragetic object The fight
came Off it will be remembered on the line running
from Solferino which is only few miles southwest
from Peschiera down to San Martina, village ly
ing. little south of the common road from Cremo-
ma to Mantua. Within this space of about sixteen
miles in length situated eight nine towns and
villages some of which are very available points in
battle field, and it appears, occupied conspicuous
positions in the recent action. This location has
for many years been the great review ground of the
Austrian army in Italy, and it has assembled there
once or twice year for review sometimes in num-
bers as large as seventy or eighty thousand men,
The whole ground, then, was familiar to both Off
GERS and men. They had fought many sham bat
tie the field of the late bloody contest; had pro-
badly taken and retakcn in mock combat every one
of the positions which they were compelled to at
tack and defend on the oath of June in the face of
hostile batalions. This fact no doubt it was, as
much as any other, which induced the Austrian
Generals to meet the enemy at that spot rather
than on the other side of the Minco; and it must
have gwen the Austrian troops a great advantage
over their adversares circumstance which renders
their defeat worse one, and the victory for the
enemy still more glorious.

TOT the StanQaru
MEssRs. EDrroRs: The citizens Of West Chatham
met on the beautiful green at GLASS; on the 4th OF
July, and with becoming spirit celebrated the Ma
tonal Anniversary. The declaration which con-
signs King George and his men to such an immor-
tality of infamy, was read by W. j.. Headen,
member of the Senior Class at Chapel Hill. He
pronounced that greatest of all State papers with an
apt emphasis which made us feel like pledging "our
lives, our fortunes, and sacred honor " to the
cause of liberty.
Leondas j. Merritt, Esq, young member of the
Bar of Chatham, was the orator OF the day.
1t was his first appearance, and many friends,
who had high hopes of him, stood around eager
and anxious. He met their expectations, and de-
livered an grafton which stirred the hearts OF old
and young He pictured our nation in its weakness
and in its strength in its past and its present. and
spoke hopefully and periodically of our future.
When he had talked of us thus as nation, we
felt that he had done enough.
But he then assembled higher up in our hearts,
and spoke to North Carolinians about North-Carol
ma till all grew prouder than ever OF the land OF our
BIRTH and vouchsafed him a round of hearty ap-
plause If our orators continue to speak of Meek
ienburg and Alamance, and our Revolutionary his
tory in general as Nh. Merritt did, we shall soon
fall to celebrating the Goth of May the grandest
day in our annals.
And why not? While other States claim our
laures let us assert rights by periodically cele-
bratiEg the deeds our own ancestors
An aged gentleman went up among the many
who were offering their congratulations to the
speaker and shaking him enthusiastically by the
hand confessed that he had been obliged to shed
tears under his eloquence. This compliment must
have been more grateful to Mr.. Merrtt's feelings
than anything can say. So will close by wish
ing him many "fourths of July" to celebrate.

FOURTH OF July IN HIL1sBoRoUGH.-T fourth
was celebrated with great glee in the good old town
OF Hilsborough, chiefly by the Cadets of the Mill
tary Institute of Col. G. lew. as much perhaps be-
cause it was holiday as that the nation they glory
in claiming as their own arose from its ancient
thraldom just eighty-three years since. Right
heartily did the people begin to do honor to the day
by ringing the bells, and other demonstrations Of
Joy, at its earliest hour; so heartily, indeed that
to the Methodist church was placed suddenly gave
way, and doom came the tinabers, the bell and all
without further injury After breakfast the Cadets
were paraded about the town by their officers, max
ing very handsome appearance The Orange
Guards succeeded them and made fine show dur
ing the day.
The festivities were concluded by an assemblage
OF ladies' and gentlemen to ball, given at the Acad.
envy by the Cadets in honor of the day.-Recordsr.

LONG LAWSUITS British House of Lords
has just given decision in the case of the heirs of
Peter Thellusson which has been in litigation since
1897. 1t is one of the most noted will cases of mo-

that the power of devsing property for the purpose
of accumulation should be restrained in general to
twentyone years after the death of the testator If
Peter Thellussons wish had been strictly carried
out, the property to be divided would have amoun-
ted to about $780, but for sixty-one years

the heirs of Lord Berkeley on the other. The suit
was instituted toward the end of the reign of Ed

the parties-thus embracing period Of one hun

The Massacre at Perugia by the Pops's Troops
OticiaL ReDOrt

UvUt0t ItepoTC.
BERLIN, 29th.-On the receipt of the news of the
massacre at Perugia, the Swiss residents at Milan
itreated by the popuace, but the police inter-
fered. The Federal Council has addressed circulars
to the Swiss Consular agents in Italy, in which the
Council protests against dominating regiments, and
requests that may be made of the circulars, in
order that this subject may be put properly before
the eyes Of the people.
The Tuscan Piednontese journal contains &C
counts Of the proceedings of the Swiss troops at
Perugia. After all resistance had ceased the troops
began to massacre the citizens indiscriminately,
sparing neither age nor sex. The municipality
tried to stop this carnage, and left the town hall
with white flag for the purpose but they were
fired on by the soldiers and Secretary Ports, who
carried the flag fell MORALLY wounded.
One of the journals gives list of the persons
murdered by the soldiers after the fighting over.
Among them were three married couples, five elder
ly ladies' three unmarried females, the daughter of
Captain Pollodia, four years old, &c. An infant
was taken from its mothers breast and thrown into
the Tiber. Official journals of Rome state that the
Swiss officer who commanded the attack on Perugia
has been promoted to the rank of General of Bri-
gade. All who distinguished themselves are to be
mentioned under an order of the day.
