HOW DID IT HAPPEN

The newly elected Commissioners OF
the city of Raleigh seem to be in
trouble. One of their first acts after
organizing, was to go into an cleo
tion for Clerk of the Board, when the
votes were counted out it appeared
there were nine ballots cast in all, four
of which were for one Mr.. Sorrell. So
far SO good. At the next meeting OF
the Board the affidavits of five of the
Commissioners making oath that they
had not voted for Mr. Sorreil were pre-
scented and upon these motion was
based to correct the minutes of the
last meeting of the board SO as to show
that Mr.. Sorrell was not elected. The
motion was voted down. The vote
stood four in favor of the motion and
five against it. Mr.. O'Neill one of the
parties making affidavit voting that the
minutes were correct and ought to be
approved.
A curious state of affairs it is truly,
when at one meeting of a Board of
nine Commissioners, e candidate re-
ceives five ballots and at the next
meeting of these same nine Comm s.
sioners five of them swear they did not
vote for the Candidate, and yet five of
them vote that the minutes of the
former meeting were correct
Ii such things as these are to be the
fruits of the Reform movements we
trust We shall be spared the infection.

CAPT. W. -. X. BELL,

We have already noticed that Captain
w. L. r. Bell, Of Carteret has been
nominated by the Democratic Conser-
natives OF Jones, Onslow and Carteret,
for the Senate fEona that District.
Captain Bell made a fine impression
upon the members Of the Judicial and
Congressional Conventions recently in
session here and at Magnolia. BY Ais
personal influence Mr.. w. J. Doughty,
of CarteYet, although an entire stran-
ger in the larger part of the Dis
trict, received very fattesing vote
for Solicitor. Captain Bell will make
an efficient Senator, and We eengratu-
late the people of the District upon
the certainty OF having his services
next Winter.

fore the United States Senate on Tues-
day last, the question was upon agree
ing to the amendment proposed by the
Senate when in Committee of the
Whole to strike out the appropriation
for the Mint at Charlotte. Generf
Ransom opposed the amendment set
ting forth in his speech all the facts in
the case with the reasons for the APP
preparation, and with such effect that
the Senate concurred with him and
voted the amendment down. The ap,
preparation now stands with the ex'
ception of an allowance for the pay OF
a clerk. So much for having watch.

The difference between a Southern
State governed by Radicals and one
governed by Democrats is well illus
trated by the difference between the
taxes paid by the people of Mississippi
and those paid by the people of Ten
nessee. In Mississippi the total State
tax-general and spectator 1874 is
fourteen mills, or fourteen dollars on
each one Thousand dollars. In Ten
nessee the State tax lie only four dol
lars on the one thousand, end each
county levies, in addition, a ss4asul
school tax. While State taxation is
more than three-fold greater in Mis-
slsslppi than in Tennessee, town and
county taxation i1 pegao governed dis
tricts is ten-fold greater than in Ten
nessee. There are towns and counties
in Mississippi taxed till property is
utterly valueless.

MIR. PURN NELL AND THE KV

The Newborn Times has received
from Mr.. Purnell "his most positive
d claration that he never belonged
nor WAS he ever connected in any way
with Il, L.. Il ~, and that all state
ments - ''", rpntrary are base and
malicious
MIR. Purnelrs deniai, as published
by the Times, meets the charge
squarely, and covers the whole
ground. 1t now remains for the gen
tlemen in Forsythe county who assert
ed that Mr.. Purnell was Ku-KIux. to
make good their charge or to confess
their error If Mr.. Purnell really was
Ku-Klux, his denial of the fact
places him in very nnenxiable posi-
ton. Ii he was not Ku-Kl1x it is
due to HIM that the charge should he
Withdrawn.
Whatever may be the result of the
assue of varacity thus raised between
Mr.. Purnell and certain gentlemen in
Forsythe, we shall lay it before our
readers. We will knowingly do no
man injustice.

From Tie New Orleans Picayuu
a Model Carpet-bagSer.

The principal agent in getting up
| the Grant parish trouble, and the
main witness relied upon by the Dis
trict Attorney In the prosecution now
going on III the United States Circuit
Court. is one r. G. Register, who
| claimed to be the legal Judge of that
| parish, i'll behalf of whom the conflict
between the white and colored people
was brought about.
Day before yesterday Register gave
his testimony in the case, and on the
cross-examiuation furnished the fol-
lowing photographed sketch, which
we think gives him right to stand
aonspicuoualy forth as one Of the most
active and adventurous of the tribe
that have produced all the trouble
between the white and coiored people
in this States:
was Judge of Grant parish; never
studied lazy; used to be'a detective,
before that a tanner. went to Colfax
from New Orleans, came here from
Shreveport. / left Shreveport in
hurry, because ! was afraid to stay
there; went to Shreveport from Ander-
son, Texas; went there from Arkansas.
/ lived before that in South Carolina,
Philadelphia, Baltimore, Brooklyn,
Westchester, Peru. Chill. New Grana-
da. ] was born in Delaware
This adventurous and migratory ill.,
dividual has not yet reached middle
age, and yet has managed, in the
course Of ten or twelve years, to pnr-
sue the several occupations of detec-
tive, tanner and tourist, ond TO reside
in no less than five different nationali-
ties, in four of the chief cities and Il
seven States of this Union. not inclnd-
ing his native State, Delaware, con-
Guiding his career at ColfaX by incIt-
ing the negroes to armed organizations
as a posse c0naitqt"s, and when the
fight became very brisk one, hurried
to Kew Orleans for reinforcements.
leaving the poor negroes to be slain in
the trenches he had ordered to b. con.
strpctea.
Our fellow-oitisens III other States
have only to read the deposition of
this man to comprehend the full ex-
tent and real cause of all the conflicts
and troubles which have arisen in this
State between the two races.
