DISPUTED CLAIMs.-The people of Deering
are considerably exercised over the recent re-
moval of bodies from the cemetery on George
street. Mr. Cameron, who resides opposite the
cemetery, it is said, claims that after the bodies
are removed by consent the land will belong to
him. This claim is disputed by several par
ties. 1t seems that long years ago, when the
town was wilderness, the land belonged to
man named Snow. Some one died and was
buried on the lot now known as the cemetery,
and IL has been used as such uatil few years
ago. Mr.. Snow sold his property, and after
passing through various hands it was pur-
chased by John Reed, one of the Oldest citi-
zens. Mr.. Reed claims the land, as also do
others. 1t would seem, however, that unless
some OF the claimants have deed it belongs to
the heirs of Mr.. Snow, some of whom are now
living in neighboling town.

July 9TH, 1873. \

DEAR INDICATOR:
have the pleasure to report that
the Barbecue advertised to take place
here this day, has proved an entire
success. Early in the morning the
people began to assemble, and at ten
o'clock by an unexagerated estimate,
about five bundled persons were
present Mr.. Z. F. Presley and Mr..
J. F. Smith delivered appropriate ad-
dresses, which amply did justice to
the occasion, after which all repaired
to tho tables prepared near the
Church, aud loaded with the choicest
of barbecued viauds, to partake OF
the good cheer of the worthy people
of that vicinity, in the afternoon a
Sermon is to be preached by Rev. Mr.
Atwond, and l would not be snrpris'
ed if in the evening the young Ladies
aud Gentlemen, by way of set Oft,
have a dance. Everything is passing
off in a lovely manner, and | can az.
sure you, that nothing has occurred
during the last ten years which more
clearly and surely indicates an i'm
porvement in thu times, and the pros
perlty aud happiness of the people,
more than this pleasant reunion OF
the people to-day at Rocky Mount
Church Barbecue. MOI.

The State Debt.

As a sweet morsel, these people
who oppose an honest constitution,
continually roll under their. tongue
the stale quid that the "conventionist"
favor the reputation of the State
debt and the destruction of the State
credit.
Such charge as that made against
honest and honorable men only shows
to what desperate straights these peo-
pie are reduced, in their, loyalty to
bad in order to meet our arguments.
In order that this charge may not have
longer the semblance Of a cotemptn.
GUS silence which it deserves, we de
sire to state most emphatically that
we are 10 favor Of the rigorous pay.
meut Of every dollar Of our State in.
debtedness. We accepted the scaling
law a. a compromise with our credit
ors, aud We intend to insist that it
shall be maintained to the payment
of tho utmost farthing. This, too, !,
the sentiment Of our people, and we
call on all our confferes 10 favor Of y
constitutional convention to give the
lie, for once and all, to this STALE
charge of our being repudiationists.

1t. Governor Witt.

A valued corr respondent of this pa
per writing from New Orleans, and
for whose uttefances Weale in no way
responsible, has in IL late letter, attack
ed the past administration of Cover
nor Wilt as Mayor of New Orleans.
We do not Lclicve our correspondent
intended to charge that that admins
tration was corrupt although his |au-
guaso was susceptible of that con
structlon. However, Governor Witt
not only in that capacity but III all
Others which he has acted as a pub
Tic servant is as spotless as snow
No charge of that character would
hold with us for a moment, because
his life is an open refutatiou, a con-
elusive argument against it.
We must admit that Governor
Wilt is our beauideai of public
man; our dream Of a democratic
leader. A man, who though young
in years, has occupied no position
and he has occupied many, without
adoruiug them. A chivalrous South
ron, bred with all the honor and SEN
timent of his race, lie would scorn to
stoop to the committal Of any act
that could even be Tortured into cor
ruptiou. 1t has been our fortune to
become fully acquainted with Mr.
Wiltz's administration as Mayor OF
New Orleans, and even bis bitterest
enemies have, with universal acclaim
alton, pronounced it one of the best
the city ever had. We prepared an
article taking Issue with our cores
pondent at the time of the appear
ance of his charge bnt it was nnfor'
tunately mislaid. We arc panied
that any friend here should suppose
we were "goirg back on Wiltz,' as
some have felicitated themselves, and
we now give these "few remarks to
show where we stand, and to which
thew are invited FIR consolation.
Since writing the above we have
received from a friend Number of
the New Orleans Democrat of July lG,
1876, which contains complete and
full reply to these charges made 10y
Anxious Curi0. 1t is useless for our
people here to reproduce that refuta-
ton, they have all pernsed it, and
had they not, their knowledge of the
character Of Governor Wilt, their
confidence in him is too firmly fixed tn
be shaken by any charge of this or
like character.
In 1876 our people opposed Cover.
nor Wiltz's nomination through mo-
tires ofpublic policy in him as a man
and a citizen, as public servant,
they had unboanded confidence, and
that confidence has been increased
tenfold since. How much we regret
our mistaken judgment in not sup
porting Mr.. Wilt in 1876 for the first
position on our ticket will be shown
by our people on the very first occa-
sion that offers.
