The Horrible Murder

of the McLeods in Cumberland, like the
murder of John w. Stephens, is attracting
great attention. The account which we
publish 10 day, is clipped from distant
exchange:
cat point about twenty five miles west
of Fayetteville, in Cumberland county, on
Wednesday, Neil Mcleod, prominent citi
zen, was murdered in his own house by four
disguised desperadoes. His brother, David
Mcleod, leading citizen, but old and in
firm, was also shot down, and lived only a
few hours. John Mcleod, son of Neil, who
was out at work on the farm, hearing the
noise, went to the house where his father
and uncle had been murdered. He got a
gun and attempted to defend the prem
Uses, but it failed to 90 off The muir.
derers then shot him down, putting thirty
buckshot in his body. He is not dead,
and there Ia some hope of his recovery,
The daughter of Neil ran up stairs to get a
pistol for her brother, and ON her return with
it was shot and badly wounded. Another
daughter, also grown, managed to escape by
way of the yard to neighbours house with
out being hurt, and she gave the alarm.
Old Mrs. Mcleod. their mother, was shot in
the arm, and badly if not fatally hurt. The
wounded daughter, in addition to being
shot, was gashed about the head with a
bowie knife. These were the only persons
on the plantation at the time of the butchery.
The murderers. after accomplishing their
bloody work, robbed the house, taking 5000,
a quantity of clothing, provisions, jewelry
and valuables. The old men were buried
last Friday. There have been no arrests as
yet, though suspicion rests on certain des-
peradoes in the neighborhood."
We trust the desperadoes may be arrested,
imprisoned and meet with the fate they so
richly merit.
Will not some friend in Fayetteville ad
wise US further concerning the facts in rela-
ton to this horrible murder.

The Poor Man,

The Republican party is the poor man:
friend, and the epithet Of i" the poor mans
party" is no disgrace to it. That name is
its pride and boast.
The principles of the Republican party
are in favor of the poor man equally with
the rich. No distinction is made.
The platform of the Republican party
contains no rotten planks. The poor man
can stand on it with perfect security. The
paths leading to it may sometimes be a little
rugged, especially to those who are timid
and afraid of abuse, but the goal, when once
reached. compensates for all.
There is no division among those who
stand ON this platform. One man docs not
say to another, 81 am better than you" He
says. "We are equal-before God and before
the law sat-
By coming to this platform, the poor man
has nothing to lose and all to gain. 1t is
the platform from which went forth the
irrevocable edict-"Your children shall be
educated" 1t is the platform on which
men in favor of political economy stand,
Notwithstanding all abusive and false asser-
tons to the contrary .a
Let the poor men compare the platform
of the Conservative party of to-day with
the platform of tile late war party. The
planks will nearly dovetail. II they get on
that platform they will again find rotten
planks and trcaclcrous trap-doors.

The Abolition of Slavery in Brazil.

Inc IADOlltlOu Oi SldVeTy III bTdLils
News comes from Brazil that societies for
the emancipation OF slaves have been formed
at various places, and that these societies
are meeting with encouraging success.
The New York Sun says the object of
these societies is not the abolition of slayesy
out and out, but rather its extinction by the
gradual process of purchasing slaves and
manumitting them The laws of Brazil do
not, as did the old laws of the Southern
States, interpose any obstacles to the &C.
complishment OF this benevolent purpose.
On the contrary, emancipation is favored,
and the freedmen find no barrier in the way
of earning living, or even attaining high
social and political position. But in view
of the large number Of slaves in Brazil
100000 and upward-it may be doubted
whethera more energetic and speedy method
of agitation will not soon be adopted, and
Brazil, like the United States, be called upon
to abolish the institution by law as well as
in actual practice.
/ The tendency of the age is clearly towards
the greatest freedom of the individual COM
patible with the interests of society. The
work begun by our forefathers of the Revo-
luton is still going on to its legitimate con-
clusion. In every direction we see efforts
made to break the shackles of the dark ages,
and inaugurate the reign of a new era. Our
abolition of slavery was one great step in
this onward progress; and in that respect
only Spain and Brazil now lag behind US
Let Brazil do her duty promptly, or the
triumph of the Cuban revolution will leave
her to bear the permanent shame of being
the last slaveholding country in the New
World

Slar,ng the sMonsters.v

The Asheville Citizen, in its last issue, at
lacking the Republican party, INDUCES in
the following language:
"But is the parallel complete2 No
it remains to chronicle the uprising of an
indignant people to Stay the monster This
will be done in August next. The people
have borne and forborne; but their patience
has been exhausted The fire of indigna
ton at Radical misrule and corruption i:
burning in the breast of every honest either
of the State. The demon of Radicalisn
has been doomed to be torn in pieces, and
scattered to the winds. So mote it bc-a
righteous judgment"
We would remind our readers that sucl
language is parallel with the language o.
the Sentinel, calling upon the people to rist
up and drive the General Assembly from the
Capitol We would further remind them
that Republicans are individually cons.d
cred and treated as monsters white
negroes, scalawags, &C., by their enemies
and that they have been slain already, as il
is now proposed to tear them in pieces as a
party.
Further, these journals pretend to speak
for the people, when their party is we'll
known to be in minority of twenty thou,
sand, and when they announce that ''pa.
thence Is exhausted" they simply announce
that the minority is ready to countenance
such acts of violence as have been committed
in this State already, and to bid the Kukluz
God-speed in their diabollcal operations
This is the plain, logical meaning of the
language of the Citizen. The rebel voters
of the 18th district can now make the most
of this utterance of their central organ.

William Purycar.

This was the colored man, who disap
peared mysteriously from among the color
ed people of Alamance short time ago
We published his disappearance at the
time, and also the statement of his wife that
the Kuklux had taken him from his home,
and that she had not seen him since.
1t was rumored that he was insane, and
here the matter rested But it was further
known that Puryear had said in Graham,
that he had tracked two of the murierers oil
Outlaw to their homes. And as dead men
could tell no tales, it was suspicioncd that
he had been killed to make away with bis
testimony.
Sure enough the body of Purycar has been
found. Bound hand and foot. with large
stone attached to the neck, the corpse was
recently discovered in Wilson'S mill pond
about three quarters of mile from where
Puryear lived ..at t. ..... ...a
His wife identified the clothes upon tbt
remains of her husband.
Thus one crime led ON to the Other. Tht
hanging of Outlaw was followed by til,
drowning of Puryear. The deed explains
itself. Dead men can tell no tales about thu
Kuklux.

Harmony.


We see that the opposition papers are ia
king courage from the seeming divisions in
the Republican ranks. Nothing could in
spire them more than lack of harmony
among Republicans Only by division can
We be conquered in North Carolina. Unity
of action is victory.
We have nothing to do with local Con-
ventlons or township meetings. The peo-
pie are we'll able to govern themselves with
out our interference, and one trouble in all
party organizations has been, that leaders
seek to govern the people too much. From
this standpoint, we give our Republican
brethren good hail, and hid them go for
ward, in the good cause. 7. ..
There is. however, an impending danger.
1t is the endeavor OF the opposition party
to divide us on the basis of color. Strange
as it may seem, the Republican party is not
now 50 harmonious upon this question, as
we would desire to see it. Nominations be-
cause man is white or black depend upon
various political contingencies, and all man
ner of possibilities and chances, each OF
which should be most deity calculated.
But to carry this question into our ranks,
for the purpose Of securing nomination to
special friends, is ruinous NOV ement. Il
is antircpublican, and belongs to the oppo
sition party. H.f1n ae 4.
Still we uphold the non inees of each and
every Convention. United We stand-divi
ded we fall for harmony is essential to sue
cess, and the success of the party at the
next election is essential to the preservation
of peace and the prosperity Of the State.

lungs they have, and the greater number of
cubic inches of air they can take in or de.

thought that mans lungs arc sound and
well developed, in proportion to his firth

that slim men as rule will run faster. and

taken, in all respects alike, EXCEPT that one
measures twelve inches more around the
chest than the other, the one having the
excess will not deliver more air atone full
breath, by mathematical measurement, than
the other
The more air a man receives into his lungs
in ordinary breathing, the more healthy he
is likely to be- because an important object
in breathing is to remove impurities from
the blood. Each breath is drawn pure into
the lungs on its outgoing, the next instant.
1t is so impure, so perfectly destitute of
nourlshmcnt, that if rebreathed without any
admixturc OF a purer atmosphere, the man
would die. Hence, one of the conditions
necessary to secure high state of health is,
that the rooms in which we sleep should be

The North Car0linian.

The Republicans OF the First Congress
siunai District are indeed fortunate in the
possession of such an organ as the North
Carolinian, at Elizabeth City. Alive to
every interest of the Republican party, its
ample columns are filled to repletion each
week with articles which for ability, sound
Judgment, courtesy and high tone, challenge
the admiration OF both friend and foe
Apart from its rigid adherence to the tenets
of the Republican party, it is one of the
very best newspapers in the State. Its selec-
tons evince good taste, and the object of
the editor in every article seems to he to
inform, to instruct and to improve. The
Public School system OF the State has no
better friend or advocate than the North
Carolinian. Dr. Johns is accomplishing a
great work in Eastern North Carolina, and
it becomes the duty of Republicans all over
the District to see that he is well sustained.
The influence of such paper as he is pub
fishing cannot be over estimated and its
energy should not be crippled by meagrc
or partial support. We say to the Rcpubli-
cans Of the First District, support your paper.
