WAR IN NORTH CAROLINA.
Il U

Not from native North Carolinians alone,
but from officers of the Northern army esta-
blished since the war in that once free and
always true and gallant old common wealth,
we receive the most startling and, for every
honest and fair minded American citizen,
most humiliating accounts of the brutal des-
potism fastened upon the "old North State"
by it's '1oyal' Governor Holden.
This person, to whom the imbecile admin
istration at Washington have practically
abandoned that absolute control of the lives
and liberties of the people of North Carolina
which was taken from them by the Federal
sword, has organized and is now organizing a
military force by which he proposes to per-
petuate his ill-gotten and worse-employed
authority. His soldiers are forced or bribed
from the peaceful pursuits of honest citizen
ship, put under the command of irresponsi-
BILE and, for the most part, imported ruffians,
and sent right and left throughout the State
to browbeat its inhabitants and to dominate
its politics. The columns of the
press have borne repeated wit
ness of late to the outrageous and
intolerable tyranny of this petty radical
prince. This witness no man of character
has ventured to impugn. 1t is of record and
unquestioned that one of the satellites of
Holden, a scoundrel whose name of Kirk re-
calls the darkest days of the prostration of
English freedom at the feet of the Stuarts,
has flung back the writ of habeas corpus into
the faces of the judges who have dared to
issue it; that he has seized and imprisoned
free citizers of America without pretence
or proffer of any charge against them; that
he lives, he with his forces, at free quarters
upon an industrious people, like so many
German kanzknechts of the middle ages upon
the burghers of Italy or of Flanders.
For all these things who caresy While
they are disgracing the nineteenth century
and the boasted triumph of free institutions
in the New World, the Chief Magistrate of
the Union which they make delusion and a
snare is smoking the weed of ineptitude in
the halls of Incidence at Long Branch. The
members of his Cabinet are discharging their
minds of all serious responsibilities whatever
this one in the Blue Mountains of Vir-
ginia and that one among the fluid or the
fourfooted delights of Saratoga. The ulula-
ting Radicals, as men who are conscious of
vested interest in torrid penal regions in
evitable but as yet unvisited, disdain the fer
vent heats of July, and come together pas
sionate and perspiring, to denounce the
''usurper of the French throne, the butcher
of republican Frenchmen and the persistent
disturber of the peace of Europe"
Suppose all this to be as true and temperate
as it is noisy and nonsensical. What interest
have we in the ''usurper of the French
throne, in Republican Frenchmen," or in
''the peace of Europe" at all comparable to
our interest in the American usurper of
State authority in North Carolina, in the
| American butcher of republican Americans,
or in the persistent American disturbers of the
peace of the United States?

treated more like criminal than as man trying to
do right and to protect the interests OF che comnu
nifty. The counsel for defence, MIR. Hughes no con
tended had been allowed the greatest latitude, while
he had been restricted.
Justice Rieiy would not permit the complainant TO
proceed further IN this course OF reflection upon
hlm. but intcrruptng Mr.. Bergh, Informed him ,hat
II the Court had erred ne had legal remedy.
Mr.. Bergh then moved lhat the case De taken be-
fore the Grand Jury.
Justice RELY replied that the defendant alone had
the right TO make that demand, but II upon exam
inatiOn he found sufficient he would mold the
prisoner for the Grand Jury; II not he would dts
charge him.
Several witnesses were examined for the defence,
VINO testified strongly in favor OF the narmessncss
or swill for feed Tor cattle. The case was thcn
summed up by the counsel and Mr.. Bergh on their
respective sides. and the Court Will render deci-
sion In the matter on Wednesday next.
