Neacs, in noticing the fact that the

pended by military order for publishing

"North Carolina editors, with few

years past of calling one another very
hard names, and even going so far as
to bring up personal family matters in

another, they have gone TO using pretty
rough language towards the military"
1t was not known to us before this

ofour good old State had won special
distinction as the employers of abusive
epithets, and we are still indisposed to
acknowledge the charge Of "blasphemy'
