New MARTINsVILE, VIVA, December
2S.-The Inteuigenoer to-day contained
special dippatch from this place, under
date December 81, as follows:
County Court adjourned this afternoon sine die
Capt. Bowers came very near having TO pay an
other twenty dollars to-day Commissioner Earn

Saturday, when he retorted that he would not
20 to the County Court for either manners OF
morals The court threatened but did not fine
The above is incorrect in letter and
spirit. Commissioner Esrnshaw did not
try 10 lecture Captain Bowers until his
Language bGcame insulting, and then the
lecture was DEiet but pointed. Bowers
presented bill Of exceptions. The Court
refused to sign it, simply because 1t was
not true statement of fact. The ones
ton then came up as to what Bowers had
said to the Court, when he was lined be-
fore for disrespect. Bowers stated that ne
had not intended that his language should
refer to the Court at all. Commissioners
Earnshaw said that his language was di'
rected at the Court and was menace
to it.
Bowers denied it with warmth, and said
he did not want his (Earnshaw's) advice.
President Earnshaw simply remarked that
if Mr.. Bowers called him liar on the
street, the matter would be settled very
easily without a bill of exceptions. Bow
ers turned and left the room without a
word of reply,

each other with the rapidity Of lightning.

PEELED to lay this issue clearly and directly
before the American people.
Representative Fitch, OF New 10rR, Iol-

letter from Secretary Esudlcott regrettipg =
a necessary absence, and one from Speaker
Carlisle.
Mr.. Carlisle expressed his very cordial
sympathy and regrets at not beng aDle 10

'This struggle has just commenced IN
this country, and those who delude tneln-
selves with the hope that 1t will De ADAM
doned before the triumph OF right over
wroog are simply augmentirg the weight
of the blow that will inevitably fall upon
them in the future. This is not
threat but friendly warning. The
history of sli movements for necessary,
social or political reform, show that they
grow more radical by oppooition and delay,
and it would be wise and patriotic on the
part of our opponents to recognize the In
syitsble and sccede to reasonable demands
now, rather than be forced to accept
naIQcr I6IIub nSIcdltCI. EoO ioA eAS 49,
ment in favor of q reduction Of taxation
and the removal Of commercial restrlc-
tions have been conservative and II 1t does
not continue to be so the responsl'
bility will rest solely on those who unrea-
sonably oppose it. They alone can stop
the agitation or eonfne it within reason
able grounds by proper concessions to the
demads of the people. The result OF the
contest in which we are engaged is not
in the least doubtful, and unless the evils
of which we complain are removed, which
seems not at all probable, the agi-
tation should 90 right on within
increased vigor and force, until the
public Judgment and conscience refuse
longer TO Justify or condone them. Moth
ing has yet occurred to weaken our faith
| in the Justice of our cauge, or to abate our
confidence in its ultimate success. A SIN
gle defeat, even it had been sustained on
the real merits of the controversy, ought
not to discourage Us. No Just cause Is lost
so long as it has a single earnest advocate
among the people. ..
More than five and half millions OF In
telligent, patriotic Americans have attest
ed their fidelity to the cause OF revenue
reform under circumstances we'll calcu'
lated to test the sincerity OF their opinion,
and they will neither desert its standard
ror make peace with the enemy until al
least substantial Justice is done"
