The North Carolina TrOubIes-MOre
Outrases by Kirk - Brutal Treat
ment Of PrtSOners-Eadies Insulted.

RALEIGH, N. c., July 20.-The ha6eas
corpus in the cases of citizens arrested by
Colonel Kirk in Alamance county was heard
before Chief Justice Pearson to-day, and
will be argued tomorrow, when 1t is ex-
pected the argument will close.
Later adyices from CasWell county state
that $50 to 200 citizens were kept in the
courthouse by Kirk from o'clock p. NJ. to
5P. NJ. w. D. Bowe, one of those arrested.
demanded to know why he was arrested
without warrant, when he was knocked
down and dragged of. Another prisoner,
MIR. Wiley, was ploughing in his field when
arrested. He refused to 90 with them with
out warrant. He was also knocked down,
put on his own horse, with his feet tied I'M
der the horses belly, his hands behind his
back, and carried to Kinks courts. The
sentinels under the window Of Judge Kerr's
prison amused themselves by cursing and
sneering at him. Ladies are insulted, and
with their children are flying to Virginia
for protection.
Among other arrivals of Governor Hol-
den's State troops here last night was a
company of negroes commanded by white
officers.
Both parties are denouncing this outrage
as unlawful, despotic, and unnecessary.

A slight touch OF superstition is not in
itself objectionable it only becomes so
when forced upon others. A hospital sur
geon who has made observations declares
that large percentage of patients carry
with them some sort Of a charm against
disease usually a horse-chestnut in the
pocket. But when The Vest Union De-
.f'nder (Ohio) expects its readers to believe
story about Il cure thus effected, it looks
like carrying things too far. The story is
that Mr.. Nicholas Plummer, of North Lib
erty, substituted potato for the conven-
tional chestnut, his complaint being rheu-
matism. After carrying the potato eighteen
months in his pocket he finds his rheuma-
tism departed and his potato turned to
stone. Solid stone none Of your chalk
stones, such as rheumatic patients get in
their joints, but 4 small brown rock that
rcsolnds on being struck with metallic
ring. a solanopathic school of medicine
