Acquittal of the Lathams.>

Last week in Pitt Superior Court. the case of
George and Charles Latham, (removed from the
County Of Beaufort charged with the murder Of
John W. Grst, was tried. The case was taken up
on Thursday morning and continued to absorb the
attention of the Court and very large crowd in at
tendance, until the middle of Saturday night
large number Of witnesses were examined, and
most intense interest exhibited by the numerous
friends Of the deceased and of the prisoners who
were present The argument Of counsel commenced
about noon on Saturday, and about midnight his
Honor Judge Bailey committed the case to the jury,
who in short time returned verdict Of not guilty.
The argument was opened by Mr.. Rodman for the
prisoners, who was followed by Mr.. Attorney Cen
erai jenkins for the State then came Mr. Mcfsae for
the prisoners, who was answered by Mr.. Miller for
the prosecution, which closed the argument
Messrs. Attorney General Jenkins Sparrow and
Warren Of Washington, and Miller of Raleigh ap-
peared for the State and Messrs McRae Of Newbern,
saterthwaite and Sngeltary of Pitt, Rodman and
Carter of Washington, for the prisoners.
No case has been tried In the State for years past
that created more interest than this The whole
trial was conducted with marked ability on both
sides, and we learn, without single unpleasant oc-
currence. This speaks well of the Court and coun-
sci and those in attendance trial so exciting.

ANOTHER DoDGE.-The seceders in Virginia find
ing their predictions of coercion war; boodshed and
thunder generally, to have each and all proved
groundless and false, and that the people are no
longer to be deceived by their sensation items have
resorted to ''new dodge" which is exhibited in
the following special despatch to the Richmond
Enquirer: ....f... .....
"Important from Harrington City.
WASHINGTON, March 12.-It may safely be pre-
dcated that if the administration decide upon en-
forcing the collecting Of the revenue, and the
blockade of the Southern ports, extra session of
Congress will be called, which will be virtually
declaration of war on the part of the Government"
The President may call an extra session Of Con-
CESS to take the steps necessary to recognize the
secession and separation of the Confederate States.
If he does the secessonists here and elsewhere will
swear according to the above programme, that such
call is virtually declaration of war on the part Of
the government" In their desperation they will
do almost anything. ~ >. ...- -. ,4-- 80. .,

SIGNIFIcANT-Ihe washington correspondent OF
the Richmond Dispatch, journal devoted to the
secession cause in recent letter, says:
"Lincoln threatens war because he knows his
hands tied. War is not the thing 'sce ought to
fear. Peace is our destruction; war our saliva
tion."
This is significant for it is the sentiment no doubt
if they had the boldncss to proclaim it. of the seces
sionsts in our midst "Peace is our destruction
war our salvation" That is true. If our present
difficulties are adjusted-if North-C Carolina does not
in precipitate haste JON the Southern Confederacy
before it falls through and proves miserable failure,
the destruction politically of course, of those in
midst who now proclaim themselves for secession at
once, is certain their designs are PLAIN. From
our recent advces it appears that the President is
not disposed to them by bullets for he refuses
to inaugurate war for their especial benefit. That
the people will, upon the first opportunity, destroy
them by ballots is fact already appreciated and
felt by none more than thcmselvcs

A monster petition to the British Parlia-
ment is now receiving signatures Of the Celtic
counties Of Ireland, asking that the principle
which Lord John Russell has applied TO the
settlement Of Italian affairs, may be resorted
to for the purpose Of establishing the separate
nationality OF that island The petitioners
contend that if the popular vote Is to decide
the destiny OF the Romagna or Sicily, it should
have equal weight in deciding the destinies
Of Leinster or Munster. Thirteen years ago
such an argument would have been irresisti-
BILE. At that time probably three-iourths OF
the people Of Ireland favored separation from
Great Britain, and the repealers found loud
echoes in an able but violent press, and a
powerful but not incorruptible delegation TO
Parliament Since then the tables have
turned. Hundreds Of thousands Of the
Roman Catholic population have emigrated,
and to-day the Celtic element comprises
bare majority, if the descendants OF the Eng
lish and Scotch settlers in the East and North
do not exceed the aboriginal rae in numbers,
as they certainly do in wealth, intelligence
and the various ruling qualities. o. the
journals in Dublin but one, pretending to
much influence, identities itself with the new
movement. And the famous, or rather IN
famous Brigade" has been broken up, partly
by Government patronage, and party by
the elements of disoord in It's own ranks,
until it has ceased TO exist and its very name
has become term OF disgrace. Owing 20
these disintegrating inhuen ,es, we consider it
very questionable whether an actual majority
Of the adult population of the Green
isle would to-day vote in favor ofa separate
nationality. 1t is certainly much easier to
assume the fact than to prove it.-N Y.

From the Columbia correspondence Of the
Savannah Republican we take the following
paragraphs;
The principal topic of conversation here
just now is the stringency Of the times, which
seems to have reached its eliminating point
in the suspension of work on the State
House. This evil, for some time apprehe d.
ed, took place yesterday evening, all the re-
manning hands in the employ Of the State
having been discharged. The bonds author
lied by the Legislature for the purpose Of
continuing the construction OF this build
ing cannot be sold, and so the work is sus-
pended.
But the State House is not the only in
teIest that has suffered from the times. Tie
foundries, machine shops and printing Of
fees are working smaller number Of hands
than usual, and the railroads are cutting
down expenses The Greenville road has
reduced the salaries of all its employees, and
the Charlotte road has discontinued the night
express train, and puts its 1--WE passenger
conductors on reduced pay, running one trip
a week each, besides reducing all the salaries,
from the President down. have not yet
heard one syllable of complaint from those
whose pay has been reduced, all seeming sat
isfed that it was inevitable, though, perhaps
temporary, and being willing to make even
greater sacrifices, should the State or the
Contederacy require it.

We are now livire in the age o; Rebell-
ion. The South, not content with having
had the control of our Government alnos;
entirely ever since the formation OF the Con
stitutOn, are now endeavOringSo break up
our glorious Union, merely because for once
the power is taken out of her hands. Overt
acts and hostility have already been com
menced against the Federal authorities, and
where it will end, no man knows.
If there ever was a time when every man
should take good newspaper, which viii
keep him posted in regard to the news Of the
day, now is that time. Such a newspaper
is the LEADER
In addition to the important matters oc-
curing in our own country, the news from
Europe, for at least the year to come, will be
of stirring interest. The heroic and patriotic
Garibaldi in struggling to build up liberal
and united government in Italy old thrones
are crumbling into ruin-society is in a
transition state.
The great advantages in taking a Home
paper, like the Leader, over the Eastern
Weeklies are these
Owing to our great Telegraphic arrange
ments, we are enabled to give news three to
five days earlier than can possibly be deEv:;
cred BY Eastern papers. The LEADER gives
more home news, both political and current,
than can b. done by Eastern contemporaries.
The postags on the LEADER is Is to 26 cents

the efusio1 ents from all parts
Of the Union.
There is one. service that we solicit from
our Republican Friends, and that is, to lend
their aid in getting up Clubs tor the coming
year. Let it be remembered that we need
just the hiud Of assistance that can only be
derived from friends scattered through the

We have heard OF love IN q cottage, love
by the sea shore, and love under difficulties,
but never until last Saturday night did we
witness love in a city passenger railway car.
Having business that required our attention
IL the northwestern section Of the city until
a late hour, we, at half-past eleven o'clock,
found our way into one OF the Madison ave
nue. cars (No. 4O) At the corner Of Frank
lin and Eutaw streets, young lady and gen
teman entered the car and occupied a seat in
the corner. Being a great admirer of fe-
males, we stole glance at the young lady,
and were recompensed by beholding very
lovely young Mss, with black hair and eyes
the latter appearing as if Cupid, the God
of Love, had rented the premises and seemed
determined to dispute the sway Of man. Her
companion was one Of those specimens known
as tue genus homo. he was attired in bran
new suit of Harrison street store clothes, and
appeared as gay. as a peacock. The first
thing that be did after eating himself was 10
encircle the neck of his companion with his
left arm, while his right hand lovingly grasp
ed her soft and delicate left. Not being used
TO such scenes, I'VE being a baehelor) We kept
our neither eye open and noted down pro-
ceedings in our mind.
aClars, began the pas iionats lover, ''ain't
this nice; swow its better than riding in

ayes, Josh, p feebly articulated Clara "But
don't hug me so, the folks are looking at US"
ssWell, let them look, retorted JOSH
tGuess they would like to be in my place"
I'VE, fer one did most heartily envy his stu
alton
"Yes, but Josh you know that they viii
laugh at Us, meekiy rsj0ined his companion.
q Let them hugh" exclaimed the irate
lover "Don't love you, anudon't you love
rue, and amt we going to get married to-
morrow %
Josh at this moment appearedas if brill
] iant idea had struck him, for he suddenly bent
over and kissed bis hir companion square in
! the mouth.
"There," said he eKultingiy, 'ain't that
nice9 You don't alters get them sort -
Then turning to the occupants Of the car, be
exclaimed; ''SuaHgers, me and this young
woman have come down irom the country to
get married. She is a nice gal, and ! am
1 going 70 DO the right thing By her"
Duriugthe delivery Of this concise speech
Clara's tacs was difiused with bushes, motto
ing which her ardent tloYerremarked, "Don't
get SO ALFRED red about the gills, Clara. You
know that you are going 10 be married, aud
what's the use to fiuster up2n
This last speech settled ths business Of the
passengers. They gave one shout, and re
lieved their bodies Of charge OF laughter
that had almost strahgled them.

streets we vacatsdths car, leaving the haop!
