We reply that one OF the old men was
asked the same question and rephed thai
the only persecution he Or his neighbors
suffered from, was the stagnation of all
business, and he regarded that 80 the dl-
rect result of the policy Of the United
States, which would not. as he expressed il

INTERFERING Trial We had quite an in
tereBting trial in our town on Friday last
It appeared that an extreme i,yalist OF
Davie 6 unity hid failed to pay lis United
States license for the privilege Of distiiling,
and fhad also failed to pay the rev
nue. on the quantity distilled, and after
due notification by the q. S. Collector, his
property WAS distrained and advertised for
sale. On the day appointed for sale, the
Deputy Collector was informed by the
crowd who had collected that the property
ln h.,
premises As most OF the crowd were armed
and drinking, the officer Thought it prudent
to d sist. Some of the crowd were arrested
and brought here for trial, and were bound
over to appear Mt the next term of the Fed
elai Court. 1t IS \ great pity that all the
defendants were ''HerOes of America, > as
it spoils nice sensation story Of outrage,
that would have been duly chronicled by
the Stun0Grd and other papers Of that ilk,

CRAVEN COUNTY CRIMINAL COURr. THE
first term Of the new Criminal Court OF
Craven county commenced in this city yes
terdav. his Honor Judge Green presiding.
Beyond selecting the Grand Jury, and the
charge Of Judge Green. nothing was done,
and the court adjourned till this morning
at ten o'clock. The judges charge was o
clear and comprehensive exposition of the
law; in the course OF which, in defining the
crime of burglary, he charged the jury
| that shooting into Westinghouse, in the
night time, with felonious intent, would
constitute q burglary. We regarded this
part of the charge as new TO our courts,
and at the same time as sound for the of
frnco is surely more than an assault with
intent to kill, and should be punished as a
capital felony. It is clearly q - forcibie en-
trance, with intent to kill, or commit a
robbery, as our experience during the last
two years must have traght US. We be-
liaye the Supreme Court viii hold with
Judge Green on this ruling. The charge
occupied about one hour in the delivery.
