Life in North Carolina.

Unheard-of outrages are perpe-
trated every day, and the greatest
terror prevails. Gov, Holden and
Kirk, of Brownlow militia notorie.
ty, are doing as they please, re-
CARELESS of law and justice. The
State is under martial law, all
civil courts are suspended, persons
accused of being Ku-Klux are ar
rested, tried and sentenced by
military commissions, and Gov.
Holden says that they shall be
executed when pronounced guilty.
On Wednesday. the 3rd inst,
about one hundred arrests were
made, a number Of whom are
men who would rank first in any
State or country. Kirk refuses to
obey or respect the writs Of any
Judges, and innocent men are
held for drum-head trial to CRAFTY
the Radical villain. The follow.
ing extracts from the North Caro-
linian of August 9Th, show how
evidence is obtained:
On Saturday, the 30th ult, Col.
Kirk arrested William Patten, a
respectable citizen OF Orange, and
hung him up three times in order
to extort from him a confession.
The last time it was an hour be.
fore he recovered.
Lieutenant Colonel Burgin says:
"I have hung a great number of
men in this way. When / first
put them up they generally know
nothing, but after hanging awhile
they stop protesting their limo
cence, and confess their guilt,
when / cut them down. After
they have recovered sufficiently,
we take down their confessions,
and forward them to the Governor,
but keep the men in close confne-
ment, else they might have an
opportunity of denying the state
ments they made while hanging
up, and thus get contrary state
ment in the papers"

A Word to the Wise is
sufficient.

Common sense teaches us that
we should not sell goods for as
large profit for cash as those can
who sell on time, SO that the green
brick front has become notorious
as the place for bargains. We
are aware that it is to the interest
of credit houses to induce Us to
keep up prices so that they may
get the lions share of the trade
and laugh in their sleeves at our
credulity, or to cry out that our
goods are inferior in quality to
theirs because cheaper. We have
yet to learn that there is any ma
terial difference i'll the same brand
and styles of goods. So come on
with your cash or barter, and save
money by the operation.

~ Nashville at the late cleo
ton chose one or two negro mag
istrates. Now, if the "city dads
will appoint negro night police,
the burglars will appreciate the
situation, and vacate. Heretofore
housekeeping has prospered in
Nashville, because of the unusual
facilities attending the business.
The police force of white men by
the very pallor of their counte-
tenances-their saint.like halo, so
to speak, served as beacon lights
to guide the nocturnal operators
from all harm. But by the sub
stitution of Ethiopian guardians
instead OF Caucasian, the officers
Of the law, shrouded with shadow
and gloom, and. endowed with a
kind of invisible presence because
their color makes them less con-
spicuous in the night season, will
pounce down upon the burglars
like a "wolf on the fold" and the
denizens of the Rock City will
arise and bless their sable protec-
tors. What of the unctuous idea?

The European War.

Two heavy battles were fought
Saturday and Sunday, between
the French and Prussians, in
both of which, according to the
dispatches, the French were bad
ly beaten, losing a great many
prisoners, and a number of cam
non, though the number of killed
is about equal-being heavy on
each side. One dispatch says the
French had 1000 killed and lost a
large number of prisoners, while
another says the prisoners were
1000 and a large number killed,
and yet another pnts it at II, 900.
The Prussians were the attacking
party, and followed up their vic
tory by pushing forward into
French territory.
The French attacked Saarbruck
and after sharp conflict drove the
Prussians out. Afterwards the
French were in turn driven out.
The Prussians then attacked
Weissenburg, and took it. The
small battles were soon succeeded
by the large ones, though in them
there was, comparatively, but a
small part Of either army en-
gagged,
Napoleon has acknowledged de-
feat, and calls on France for re-
newed exertions. Paris is declared
in a state of siege, and the cable
tells Of rumored outbreaks among
the French who do not now, and
never did, like Napoleon. Then
of course there is the usual batch
of rumors attendant on the news
of a battle. Some have the
French army in full retreat on
Paris, and affirm that the war is
about over, and many more equal
ly absurd.
The Prussians have gained vic
tories-brilliant victories, and as a
matter of course, France has suf
fered a disaster equal to their ene-
my's victory, but the French ar
my is by no means panic stricken,
nor have we any idea that it has
retreated very far.
Four years ago Prussia a.
chieved great victory over Aus
tria in a seven days campaign,
but Austria was not prepared,
while France is always ready
Though Prussia has thus gained
the first victory, she will find her
war with France quite different
affair-for defeat to France means
defeat to Napoleon, and he will
never give up as long as q single
hope remains.

The Third Party,

On several occasions since the
war, a portion of the press of
Tennessee, protesting to be op-
posed to Radicalism, has advoca-
ted the formation of a party in OPP
position to the Democracy. We
have seen this mslcontent spirit
with pain, for it can result in moth.
ing but the strengthening of the
Radicals. We all ksaoa0 that there
are but two real parties in this
Government-the Democratic and
the Radical parties.
The latter came into power du.
ring the war, in the midst of q
reign of force and tyranny, when
constitutional barriers were but
ropes of sand. This lawless spirit
is still the soul of the party, and
has been acted upon until some
Of our best citizens tremble with
apprehensions for the future of
our republican institutions. And
wellsthey may, for surely never
did such a corrupt, such a lawless,
such a degraded party hold the
reins of power in any country.
Sodom and Gomorrah would have
blushed for shame at such wick
edness.
The Democratic party has
heretofore combined tie elements
of the opposition to Radicalism.
1t has heretofore raised the stand
ard of Constitutional Liberty, and
called to the friends Of such q
Government to rally around it
We rejoice to say its members are
increasing; and we hope ere long
to obtain the ascendency in Con.
gress again. We have high hopes
of bringing this Government back
to It's old standards, and we think
the Radicals themselves see the
dark and threatening cloud that
is to burst upon and overwhelm
them.
But the devil never sees a sin.
ner slipping from his grasp, with
out redoubling his exertions to re-
tain him-so with the Radical
party now. With the united
Conservative or Democratic Party
Radicalism would find its days
numbered, and it must break this
unity. What more powerful meth
cd could they adopt than to 60 in
to the ranks of the opposition and
divide them? Hence it is, that
you see now, the print of the clio
ven foot of Radicalism in the
Democratic or Conservative ranks
We would commend to oul
brethren of the press, and to oul
whole people, the lesson of Holy
Writ, "Resist the Devil, and he
will flee from you"

the quantity. was frequently compelled to
leave the table, without being able to take any
nourishment. In a short time became very
much reduced in flesh, and was so weak that
was unable and unfit to attend to my business.
My mind was in no better condition than my
BODY ,as was constantly oppressed with lassitude
and depression of spirits. l tried all the pat
ent medicines and prescriptions that l heard
of, and some of these afforded me temporary
relief but in short time l relspsed into my
former condition.
While suffering in this manner, heard of
