Of them are disposed to make the concession noted

A meeting will be held 1t the Stock Yards this
afternoon, to settle the vexed question which has
been raised between dealers in dead Hogs and the
directors Of the yards, ~ to whether the former
may not have the right Of purchasing dead Hogs
- they have hitherto DONE instead Of being pre-
vented from doing by the regulations Of the new
yards So far - the interests and rights Of drovsrs
and hog growers concerned, think they ought
to get full market value for their stock, whether

interfere with this ought to be, - We have no

Judge Stanhope Reversed.

Mr.. Wilkins has been released, but, instead
Of returning on yesterday. remained in Rich
mond, at the solicitation of his friends
This modest and quiet gentleman has found
himself suddenly elevated into a notoriety
which, VIC have no doubt, is not entirely
agreeable to him-especially in view of the
manner in which it was obtained; but be has
lost his identity and become the living illus
tration of the petty and malignant tyranny,
with which our citizens are liable at any
moment to be treated Looking at him, then,
in this light, his case becomes the property of
all courageous journalists who dare vindicate
the rights of our people, and his name should
ring in the ears of Major Stanhope and the
President, until the question is settled by the
Chief Magistrate of the Republic, whether or
not Post Commandant can play such fan
tastic tricks with the personal liberty of the
individual citizen, as the officer in command
here has favored this community with on two
occasions
Mr. Wilkins is a text which should be
expounded by the press, and commented on
by the community, until some action is taken;
and we trustthat there is courage enough
and public spirit enough in the community
to have this great question of personal liberty
settled, with as little delay as possible,

KUNKELs TRoUrE-This old and popular
Company, opened at the Opera House last
night to a splendid audience, who seemed to
hugely enjoy the elegant entertainment offered
by Mr.. Kunkel and his associates. The troupe
is, undoubtedly, the best we have had in Nor
folk for long time. AS ballad singer, Mr..
Kunkel himself stands pre-eminent
The comedians, Messrs. Daugherty and
Pell, are frst-rate. The rest are well known,
each in his peculiar line of business. To-
night we expect to see another large audi
ence present. The Kunkels give their last
performance in Norfolk on Saturday night,
and open in Portsmouth on Monday night
next, for one night only.
