Mr. Davis Trial Postponed.

The u. S.: Court met at Richmond
June 3rd, Chief Justice Chase and Judge
Underwood presiding. The Chef JUS
tice called the case Of Mr. Davis, when
Mr.. Anderson, of Mississippi, one of the
counsel for the defence, read an agreement
for the postponement of the trial till
October, signed by Evarts and O'Conner
The Chief Justice then asked if counsel
were ready for trial, Independent of this
stipulation. Governor Welles, for pros.
ecution, replied, that, in view of the ab'
sence of the District Attorney, whose
wife is in dying condition, the absence Of
the prisoner was caused. By this stipu.
lation, and absence of Mr.. Evarts, who
stood in the position of more directly re-
presenting the Attorney-General, the
case could not well be gone on with
He suggested some day of the term in
October, when the Chef Justice could
attend. Counsel for the defence moved
for postponement till the next term,
which the Chief Justice granted, saying,
at the same time, that, had the triaI
taken place last May, year ago, Or las,
fall, or now, it would have been more,
convenient for him, as he was ready to
try the case. He would, however, at
tend at the next term, if possible, in
view of his other duties. The witnesses,
including General R. E. Lee, were recog'
nized to appear on the fourth Monday
in November, and the prisoners bail was
renewed. ..- .- 49,

The Work TO ha Dome.

The democracy hare work to do, and
it behooves that the party be up and do.
ing. Supine indifference must be shaken
of, and, an active, wholesome, life.like
energy take its place instead. The dis
trict elections are over, and the results
show That all hope is not yet dead, and
that wherever the effort was made the
democratic and conservative elements
have largely increased, and in many dis
tricts have swept away like food all op-
opposition. Apartial but glorious victory
has been achieved. Wherever heart and
hand were thrown into the work, the re-
suits have been equal to, if not beyond
expectation. We must not rest here,
however, but once more to the breech,
again and again, until radicalism be root
ed from the soil. 1t may be sooner or
it may be later, but that time must, will
and shall come, if the people are but true
to themselves, and appreciate the princi-
pies involved. The idea, entertained by
many, that it is idle and useless to at
tempt to stem the radical current, is sin.
fully absurd, and unworthy place in
the mind. Already has the reverse been
proven, and had a greater and more unan-
imous determination prevailed, very few
of the radical tickets but would have
died the death they deserve. Unity in
feeling and action, and with shoulders to
the wheel, now rolling over the land,
north, south, east and west, and demo-
cracy will triumph. "The clarion notes
Of democracy will wake an enthusiastic
response, unmatched for years, and be
the signal for victory in the coming
time" The testing struggle is yet to
come, in the presidential election, but
that Grant, the debauched nominee of
the Chicago mongrelite convention, will
ride into the despotism cut out for him,
is pill to large and nauseous to swallow.
The people are showing too healthy a
tone to endorse the tool of Spoon Butler,
and the slave of passions and vices, too
we'll known to be repeated. This plank
in the platform is weak, and Grant must
fall through. Whoever is set before the
people by the New York Convention, be
be Mr.. Pendleton, or other, We believe
will utterly route the man who only
once showed a genius, and that was when
he became tanner, and scraped hides in
Galena.
Let the democracy unite, watch and
work.

Horrible, Two Men Hanged.

Wells.

While in Concord last Tuesday we
called at the residence of Mr.. j. B. An
thony, Ito whom we are indebted for
several acts of kindness and attention, }
where we witnessed, to US, a new
process of boring common wells. 1t
was brought from Mississippi, where
it has been in use for some time, and is
now most successfully operated by
Messrs. Williford & Penny. 1t is an ar
tesian auger, cutting hole about nine
inches in diameter, can easily be worked
by four or five men, completes the well
in about three quarters of q day, and
costs only one dollar per foot, clrbing
and all. The auger is suspended by
means Of q derrick, and is drawn up by
a windlass. No, more than wheel bar
row load of dirt is raised in sinking a
we'll of ordinary depth, and as it only oc.
cupies foot square can be conveniently
dus in the kitchen or back porch. The
bucket is about two feet long and six
inches in. diameter-has bottom fixed
upon hinges, which is raised when it
strikes the water, by means Of which it
is filled, and as soon as it emerges out of
the water it closes and becomes water
tight. A boy six years of age can draw
the water. By this invention a well ca
pabIe of affording an unlailing supply Of
water can be had for from 25 to 80 dol.
lars-all ready for use. There is one on
Mr.. Rich's lot, we were informed which
affords about 900 gallons per day. All
housekeepers will find it to their interest
as matter of convenience and economy,
to have one. -.
Mr.. Williford is a responsible gentle
man, and will guarantee satisfaction for
.eork or no pay. He is now at work in
Concord. .....
The above notice is taken from the
Charlotte, N. c., Times, opr attention be-
ing called to it by a friend, who is anx-
ious to ascertain if there be persons in
this section desirous of the services of
Messrs Williford & Penny. 1t is a sim
prr zuu exceeurrgy cueap way Of: pro
caring water, and We have no doubt
that there are many who would like to
avail themselves Of the chance. If any
of our citizens the. fore, in town or coun-
try, need wells of this character, they
will please give US their names, when we
will write to the gentlemen above named.
