HONEST AND MANLY.

One of the most honest and manly,
as it is also one Of the most fearless and
outspoken Of our exchanges is the
Bellefontaine, Ohio, Enaminey. 1t is
edited by a man of intelligence and
ability, who has the fairness and courz
age to speak his convictions atall times.
In last weeks paper he says this:
We assume, and put it as true and
conclusive illustration ofhuman nature,
that the n1en who fought SO bravely
for secession, would have battled with
equal courage for the Union if their
lot in life had been cast in Northern
States and the same is true Of the
Union soldiery under reversal of con-
ditions. The examples of such men as
Robert E. Lee and Albert Sidney
Johnson, is high authority. What such
as they did, Northern men would have
done under similar circumstances. Is
it not even so? Hence the individual
exceptions to this hypothesis, in either
section, could not be fairly assumed to
exceed in number those actually de-
veloped by the conflict. There is, in
this indisputably correct analysis OF
human nature-this true presentment
of the force of circumstance, and the
sequence of Academia lesson and a
philosophy worthy of the profoundest
thought. 1t may have to be acknowl-
edged at length, and after all that what
has been popularity regarded in the
light of glory and of shame, of honor
and of dishonor, in connection with
the war between the States of this Re-
public, should in just Difference to the
logic of human nature and the subtle
depotism Of fate, be resolved aside
from all consideration of the right or
wrong involved,) into a common meat
of honorable fidelity to honest convic-
ton, and of honorable loyalty to sec
ton, and to establish leadership.

We are glad to see that the whole
press OF the State is outspoken in its
condemnation of the Lexington lynch
ing. They cannot be too severe on
the men who took part in that terrible
crime, which will forever remain as a
dark blot on the fair escutcheon of our
State. All who took part in the lynch
ing are murderers, and the sacriligious
performances INDUCED in before the
awful deed was done, shows them to
be no better than the cannibals of the
south sea Standardization AdDerfiser.

WHITE AND CROSS.
More Particulars of the Arguments
in the Case.

WASHINGTON, October 22, 1880.
The case Of Chas. F. Cross and
Samuel c. White, president and cash
Ter of the broken State National Bank
of Raleigh, N. c., plaintiffs in error,
against the State of North Carolina,
was argued i'll the Supreme Court Of
the United States, by Mr.. w. R.
Henry for plaintiffs, and Col. Theo.
Davidson, attorney general of North
Carolina, in behalf OF the State. Mr..
Henry made q motion asking for a
writ of Certiorari to the Supreme Court
of North Carolina, because of a defect
in the record as sent up.
The defect was admitted by the at
torney general, and the court then
asked why it could not be amended
by consent.
Mr.. Henry opposed the amendment
by consent, insisting that the Supreme
Court of the United States could not
make a record for the lower court.
He cited part of the opinion Of the
Supreme Court in the Anarchist case,
when it was said that the only course
is to grant the writ.
Mr.. Henry came near getting the
writ, which would have probably con-
tinued the case for another year, but
the court examined the pleadings, and
after consultation, said that the defect
seemed supplied by allegations IN the
record, denied the motion, and the
argument on the merits of the case
was then had. The facts in the case
are known to almost every one in
North Carolina, so | will not rehearse
them here.
The point made by Mr.. Henry, that
the State court has no jurisdiction to
try Cross and White, was presented
with great power and clearness, and
involves great question of State SOW
ereignty, and will constitute leading
case on the relative Jurisdiction of the
State and Federal courts, especially in
regard to all offences touching nation
al banks.
There are many who think that Mr.
Henrys position is not sound, and
that the point he makes will not hold
but really no one will ever know how
the matter is until it is decided by the
Federal Supreme Court.
The court pressed Mr. Henry very
hard with questions, particularly JUS
tice Gray and Justice Miller, on the
point as to the jurisdiction of the State
court, and on the point as to polling
the jury in said case, which was al
legged by plaintiffs as being without
due process of law; the court seemed
to be of opinion that it was not a
Federal question. Justice Miller said
"Suppose all you say is true, and that
the verdict was not legally and proper,
ly obtained, what has this court to dc
with it? How do you distinguish
this case as to this point from those
cases in which we have said that the
constitutional provision in regard tC
due process of law is limitation upon
the Federal judiciary, and has moth.
ing to do with proceedings in the
State courts ?"
MIR. Henry said that he was famil
lar with those decisions, but he relied
to great extent upon the powerful
opinion of Justice Harlan, in which he
said that such a question is Federal
question.
Mr.. Henry and Col. Davidson con
sumed almost the whole of the fou
hours session in arguing the case.
The opinion will probably be rem
dered within the next sixty or ninety
days.

ENCOURAGING HOME INDUSTRIES

ENCOURAGING HOME INDUSTRIES.
The GOLD LEAF need not assure its
readers that it has always been a zeal
Gus friend of home enterprises and an
earnest advocate of supporting home
industries. In a late issue of the
Goldsboro Headlight, which has ever
manifested a broad and liberal spirit
in this respect, we find the following a:
Every good citizen desires the pros
perity of the town in which he resides;
and, as the prosperity of place is
greatly dependent on its business,
every industry, not of an immoral
tendency, should be fostered and en-
couraged, especially manufactures,
since they not only contribute in ma
terial prosperity, but give employment
to large class of lahorers that Consti-
tute large element in every city. II
goods can be bought at home, equal in
workmanship and quality, it behooves
all dealers in that line of goods, in the
home town and county to give the
preference over those imported from
places; and the prosperity of the South
can be more readily secured by help
ing each other, than by enriching
Others, whose interest in us is bounded
by the amount of money they can
! make out of us.

The newspapers of the State are
commenting freely on the lynching of
Berrier al Lexington, some of them
demanding active measures to discover,
arrest and punish the lynchers. The
Governor says he will use all the power
at his command to secure the enforce
ment OF the law against the lynchers
of Berrier-Greensb0ro Workman.

The Wilmington Messenger says:
If Cleveland and Gray, or some
other 1ndianian. can not carry the
country in 1892, then no Democratic
ticket can do SO. But for Hills trading
in 1888, Cleveland would now be
President. We suppose there is no
doubt of it.

dispositions which had been suppressed b,

dispositions which had been suppressed by
the court as false and forged.
The plaintiff expressed no objection to
the reading OF the dispositions, but argued
that II they were read the jury must take
their own view.
Mr.. Bullock said he had an order OF the
court ruling out these dispositions as fabri-
Gated, and long argument followed as to
whether this could be read TO the jury,
the court finally holding that the order
could not be produced.
The reading of dispositions was then be-
gun, the first being that of Ii. +. Crosby,
farmer living near Walterboro, Collector
County, South Carolina. During the year
1874 plaintiff came to his house in bad
shape and witness took him in out OF SYM
patty. Plaintiff gave the name Hewlett,
and said he was an Englishman. First he
taught black school and then white
school. He professed to be Democrat,
but was delegate one time toa Republican
| convention. When he left witness house he
also left an unpaid board bill OF $50. Let
tiers sometimes came to plaintiff from Eng
| land addressed TO Frederick Hewlett, who
said he was an Englishman. and that he
ran away while boy because OF disputes
with his step-mother. After he left home
he went to sea. and visited China and ia.
pan, afterward going to New York and
volunteering in an expedition to the North
Pole. After this he bound himself to the
Naval Yard. When he tired OF this he
found it very difficult to escape, and had
TO kill one OF the guards to enable him to
do so. While in South Carolina Hewlett
became very intimate with the colored
people, and even walked hand-in-hand
with one Of them. He became q trial
justice, and by his administration incurred
the general disgust OF the bar.
Arguments as to the admissibility oil
the South Carolina evidence. OF which
Crosby's may be taken rs a sample, con.
sumed nearly all the afternoon.
DR.. Howard argued the point personally
and with great ability, quoting authorities,
and urging that the South Carolina charges
were not pleaded by the defendants in
justification and could not be introduced
in the general justification plea.
Finally the court decided that the evil
dence as to the plaintiff not having paid
his board bill, or having admitted killnga
man, or having stated that his father wa.
buried in Westminster Abbey, was moi
admissible, though some OF Crosby's
evidence was admissible. Both sides took
exception TO the ruling. One OF the jury
men succumbed to the heat aud had TO bC
helped out OF the courthouse, whereupor
