Exercises at the University.

The commencement exercises of 1870 IN
the University OF North Carolina passed Of
very pleasantly on the Sth and 9th of June.
If the interest of the occasion should be
estimated altogether by the merit of the lit
erary performances, this commencement
would rank among the most interesting of
the long series of these annual festivals
which for more than seventy years have
brought together the learning and the beauty
of North Carolina No one Who heard OF
ygiu read tue addresses OF Col John ii.
Wheeler and Senator Abbott can think that
this is an exaggerated estimate Of their
merit.
Col. Wheeler's subject was ''the past, the
present. and the future Of North Carolina =
it is sufficient to say that this honored and
devoted son of North-CaroliIa has, for the
last twenty years, been collecting materials
for writing the history OF his native State.
and that his address was such as was TO be
expected from the intelligent historian and
true North Caroiiniap.
Senator Abbott's subject was accurate
Scholarship He was listened TO for about
an hour with profound interest, and it viii
be conceded by all who heard or who may
read his address. that it is scholarly, logi
Cal, philosophical production.

demonstrated with replied that he did not
care for the subpoena, and qualifying his re-
mark with an expletive that belongs to what
Charles Reade calls the ''dash dialect" and
which, by common consent, is banished from
polite society. The woman was accordingly
taken before an alderman, with considerable
rough usage, it is said, and sent to the sta
tion-house. The husband stated the particu-
lars of the arrest to the court, and a writ of
habeas corpus was forthwith issued COM
manding McMullin to produce the woman.
This he refused to do, and supplemented
a recommendation to the Judge and District
Attorney to visit the shades below by remark
ing, "My wishes shall be complied with. +"
The Judge did not agree with Constable
McMullin about the expediency of taking the
trip suggested, especially during the present
altitudinous, state of the thermometer, and he
also apparently considered the remark as an
additional disrespect to the court The ex-
cuse of the Constable that he did not under
stand the writ was not accepted, the Judge
very properly remarking that the offen5e was
grave one, and that no plea of ignorance
would answer, for a constable who did not
know the nature of writ of habeas corpus
was not fit to hold the Office.
This case embodied fagrant contempt for
the court, and it therefore secured an amount
of publicity that otherwise would not have
attached toit; butitis not by any means the first
instance of officers taking the law into their
own hands in utter violation of the rights of
citizens. McMullins remark, ''My wishes
shall be complied with, was the assertion of
an insolent self-sufficiency and conscious
ness of power to give annoyance that is
Characteristic of too many of the class of
petty officials to which he belongs;
and while the constables are entitled
to the aid not only of the
courts but of all good citizens when they are
doing their duty. all citizens, no matter
how humble they may be, have a right to
claim exemption from insult and unlawful
arrest at their hands. The refusal of Nc
Mullin to obey the writ of habeas corpus and
the insolent language he used merited even
greater punishment than he received, but it
is probably enough to teach him that we are
not quite ready just yet to recognize the
higher law of the constabulary, and that the
next time he is served with writ of habeas
corpus it will be the part of discretion for
him to obey it.

THE FREE PUBLIC BATHS

THROUGH the exertions of the Bedford street
missionary two bathing tanks have been got
into operation in the building adjoining the
mission house, and they have already been
used by great number of both sexes, who,
without such facilities, could never have been
induced to pay attention to personal cleanli-
ness. That these baths will exert potent
influence in favor of the moral as well as the
physical regeneration of the Bedford street
district cannot be doubted, and the missionary
regards them as among the most important of
his auxiliaries in the work of Christianizing
the heathen of that region. But while
through individual enterprise and exer-
ton the Bedford street baths have
been established, it seems from
present appearances that the free public
baths on the Delaware and Schuylkill, about
which there has been so much talk, are not
likely to be of much use to the public during
the season when they are most needed
Councils, after discussing the subject until
they had exhausted it, finally agreed to ap-
propriate the money necessary, and plans
were prepared and adopted, so that there
seemed to be every probability that the baths
would be provided in time for the hot
weather. The summer is more than half
over now, however, and still the work is de-
layed; and thousands of men, women, and
children who are unprovided with bathing
facilities at home, who cannot afford to pay
for baths, and who are prohibited by law
from taking dip in either of our rivers,
are deprived of a means of preserv-
ing health and comfort that they
are justly entitled to. 1t is not necessary
that the lighthouses should be very ornate
affairs, and it ought not to require any great
expenditure of either time or money to con-
struct substantial wooden sheds that will
answer every purpose. There has been ample
time since the money for the free public
baths was voted by Councils to put them in
operation, and the very large and important
class who are Immediately interested have a
right to complain that through the negligence
of somebody they are cut off from a legiti-
mate enjoyment during the hot weather, as
well as from sanitary agent the value of
which cannot be estimated at any pecuniary
valuation.

THE Fau Mall Gazette holds out an inducement for
A. j. to settle in London, 1t says-"A correspond
ent OF the Knoxville Tennessee) Chronicle mentions
rumor that the ex-Presdent johnson is about to
go into the mercantile business and open a whole
sale and retail store in Greenville Another report
states that he is coming to Europe. 1t is, however
considered more likely that he will commence busi-
ness at Greenville, inasmuch his former position
as President is likely to secure him a large amount
OF patronage even from those whose sympathies
and respect he was unable to command while fulmi-
mating his veto messages at the White House, II
these antlcpations should not be realized and eX-
President johnson should find business slack at
Greenville, we can assure him that there is a very
good opening for really honest grocer in London.
II he would really give us good weight, let us have
unadulterated articles, and not charge exor-
btant prices, we should all rush to
his shop, which would be as successful as the
Civil Service stores in Long-acre and the Hay
market. We only ask that he may let us know be-
forehand what it is we are buying. II he has a
fancy for selling disgusting compounds by all means
let him do so, only let them be labelled accordingly.
When we ask for tea, we really want tea. II we
wanted dust, dirt, and soe-leaYes, we would ask
for them separately, and mix them ourselves. We
might also point out to him that If, on the other
hand, he intends TO adopt the adulteratiye system,
he will find facilities for carrying it on in this

THE
CASE OF CONSTABLE
McMULLIN.

JOHN MoMULLN is constable, and he is,
moreover, inspired with an exceedingly ex-
alted opinion of his own personal and official
importance. Until yesterday he evidently
imagined that constable was law unto him
self, and that he was endowed with all the
prerogatives of judge, jury, and prosecuting
attorney combined, with a general rowing
commission as an administrator of public JUS
tice according to the lights that had been
vouchsafed to him. Constable McMullin,
however, was convinced of the very mistaken
view he had taken of his own Importance as
representative of the legal dignity of this
Commonwealth by fine of $500 imposed by
Judge Paxson for his refusal to obey a writ of
habeas corpus, and a commitment to the insa-
lubrious confines of the County Prison until he
shall find it convenient to pay the money. 1t
appears that a citizen and his wife and chill
dren were on their way to the grand Jury to
testify in case of burglary, in obedience to
subpoena. They were overtaken by Consta-
BILE McMullin, however, who arrested the
woman on a charge Of perjury, and on being
