w. w. HOLDEN.
Governor.

We have read tho opinion OF Chief JUS
tico Pearson, in the hohcHs corpus cases
which have been brought before him as q
consequence OF Holden's high.handed
measured. tits easy to SEQ that the Judge
is one Of HoLDEN's sympathizers. He ex-
ouses Holden, excuses Kirk who is Hol-
den's tool, and then excuses himself for
excusing them. Nevertheless, with q great
show of independence, he decides that
whilst Governor Holden: is the sole Judge
as to whether the counties declared by
him to be in instruction are in that con
ditioD, the Governor has no power to sus-
pend the writ OF habeds corpus. Naturally
the reader will suppose that such being
law, Kirk was fined and imprisoned for re-
tuslng to obey Judge Pearson's writ. But
not SO. The Judge says Kirk was equally
bound to obey both his aud Hoiden's
orders, and as he elected to obev
Holden's, Kirk is excusable Next
the reader will infer that he ordered
out the posse c0naitGtus to enforce his
writ. Not at all. He says the posse conn.,
tdtus and the militia are one and the same
thlng-that the only posse conaitdt,ts which
he has the power to call out in these cases
is that OF the very counties which Holden
declares to be In instruction, ard that it
would never do to summon posse Of such
men, all of whom are already, as militia
men, under the orders of the Governor, if
they would only obey these orders |
Finally, he concludes as follows:
The writ Will be directed to the mar
shall OF the Supreme Court, with inHtruc-
tons to exhibit it and copy of this opin-
ion to his Excellency the Governor. If he
orders the petitioner to be delivered to the

Gov Holdsn's Response.

We publish elsewhere the letter of Gov
ernor Holden to Chief Justice Pearson de-
Ginning to obey the order for the surrender
of A. G. Moore, the petitioner for the writ
of HdJeas Corpus. now in custody of
Col. Kirk.
The letter is respectful. indeed, almost
affectionate IN its tone, and indicates very
kindly relations between the Chief Justice
and the Governor, and as the latter quotes
at large from the opinion of the for
mer to justify his refusal to grant the
friendly request to release poor
Moore, we presume the little mis-
understanding between these two
august personages will be settled without
any greater regard for the rules Of the Code
of Honor than they have exhibited for
those of the Code of Civil Procedure, and
that they will live together like broth
ers," even though they may not be Gun
warped by party rage"
Seriously speaking, we think there can
be no doubt as to the friendly understand
ing during this whole farce between Gov
ernor Holden and Chief Justice Pearson.

Nessys. Editors, At short notice u por-
ton of tho citizens Of Holden township
assembled at Burgnw Depot on Saturday,
tho 23d instant, and organized IL meeting
| by calling DR.. r. Sanders to the chair
and requesting r. n. Bloolwortl to net rs

The Chairman explained the object of
the meeting to be for the purpose Of np-
pointing II committee ia urge upon the
people the necessity Of registering and go
ing ont to the election.
On motion of DR.. Emmett the Chairman
appointed committee OF five to take this
matter in hand, and to use every exertion
and facility to have full turn out the day
OF election.
The following were the committee APP
pointed, viz: W. Il. Zimmerman, s. =.
Hand, J. Fl. Durham, Geo. +. Jordan and
DR.. w. t. Emmett.
On motion of MA j. Hines the Chairman
was added to the committee.
There being no farther business before
the meeting, Major Hines was called upon
for q speech. and came forward and enter

his usual earnest way Of speaking, vindi.
eating the Conservative cause and urging
upon the people the necessity of electing
good men-men who could be trusted
and would take n pride in bat
Ting for right, Justice and the
were to be found in the persons of Shipp,
Waddell and McClammy. AT the close Of
Maj. Hines remarks, calls were made for
DR.. Emmett, who came forward and i'd
dressed the meeting In a stirring and very
impressive speech for an hour. He told
the people that he was no candidate for
office, but had never failed to contribute
his mite towards the advancement of his
party when called upon, and it was with
pleasure that he would speak to them and
advise them with regard to their interest
as in common with the interests of all true
North Carolinians. He appealed to the
colored people and implored them to look
to their interests; that their interests were
identified with the interests of the whole
people, and to come out to the election
and vote for the principles of Conserva-
tism, which would secure them the enjoy
ment and privileges Of American citizens.
That taxation must be reduced, the gov
eminent must be administered on a more
economical plan, reckless extravaganza
and open dishonesty must be checked,
and that virtue must again rule the coun-
ellis of State. All this can be accomplished
by going out to the election and casting
your votes for Shipp, WaddeIl and No
Clammy. The balIot-box is the place to
redeem good old North Carolina from dis
grace and infamy.
These speeches we're both in order and
to the point, and judging from the ap.
plause, took well with both the colored
and whites, and were no doubt the means
of strengthening the Conservative cause.

BERLIN, July II.
The Correspondence to-day prints the text OF
the treaty offered by the French Emperor to Bis
marck. In its comments, the Correspondence
says, that the Emperor waived ali opposition to
the German unifcation, provided Prussia would
abet the French acquisition OF Luxembourg and
the reduction of Belgium. The minutes OF tho
proposed treaty, in Benedettig autograph. arc
preserved in the War Office, in Berlin. Before tho
war of 1856, between Prussia and Austria, Napo-
leon had offered to aid Prussia with an army Of
300 0C0 men, with which to attack Austria, as an
equivalent Tor the cession to France OF the terri
tory on tho left bank of the Rhine.
