The Winchester News Item of Satur
day gives the following account of the
adventures of 8 Clarke county man
in that town:
| Bob McCsrty lost his identity for
twelve hours yesterday and from the
time he took drink at the Opequou
he became an erratic spirit on the
face of the earth until aroused last
night by the chill winds of the Ope-
quon near Mr.. Dan Woods at Lake
View. Mr.. McCsrty did not know
who he was, where he was aud does
no know what be did during that
period of mental catalepsy.
Mr.. McCarty started yesterday
morning from the residence of Mr..
Clayton Sewers in Clarke Coantv
with a loal IF apples for Mr.. Bently
Kern, of this city. After crossing
the Ope4uon be states that he took
one wee drink, although one man
says It was exceedingly copious drsuht
of fluid that inebristes. After that
he was in a chaotic dream. How
ever he came on to town, disposed of
the apples made some purchases and
then started home after 3 o'clock.
The last seen of the man and his tw o
horse team together was about two
miles FROM town, aud then be WIS
waving his handkerchief at imaginary
FAIRIES
The next act opened at Ash Hollow
when wild looking man came
walking along the road. accosted Mr..
Thomas Morgan, and threatened to
kill him, whereupon Mr. Morgan
threshed the supposed lunStic souudly
aud left him in a fence corner. Mar.
Newt Keller then saw bedrayyl.d
individual wading along in the creek
about dark, and with Mr.. Samuel
Carter started to look for him with
out avail.
Mr.. Carter found the team stand
ing IN clump Of thickets in Ash
Hollow and after ne and MIR. Frank
jackson consulted, they decided it
was best to turn the horses loose, 80
they could 60 home. After this
the residents of that ueighborbood
feared that McCarty had wandered
INTO some hole or deep water and WAS
lead. This morning the missing one
came to town looking for his team.
Tie had recovered his senses near Mr..
Dan Woods late last night aud Sc.
cured shelter with Mr.. Bardestv,
near by.
He had not the slightest know.
ledge of what had taken place. At
| o'clock this afternoon. MIR. Sewers
had left Berryville looking for his
team.
Since the above WAS written, the
team has been found, and Mr.. Nc.
Carly has returned home.

The Constitution Safe.

The Negro contest of the New
Constitution received solar piexus
from Chief Justice Fuller, OF the
United States Supreme Court, Oh
Saturday last, W hen the venerable jur-
list denied the application for an in-
junction made by John S. Wise aud
his colored associate Hayes in behalf
of their dusky clients. This acton
Of the Court has removed al fear OF
danger for the instrument. Ia Civ
ing his decision, the Chief Justice
indicated that in his opinion there
was no ground for appeal, and that
all points raised by the Ball of In-
junction had been fully sdjudicat,d
in prior cases decided by the United
States Court OF last resort.
The speech delivered by Capt.
Wise, in behalf of his dusky clients,
made it very plain that his appear
ance In the case was not altogether
due to q desire to gain justice for the
plaintiffs, and to redress their imag-
mary wrongs. On the contrary, il
became more and more evident that
he wanted to make stump sperch
He wanted to vent his spleen agains,
the Sons of Virginia who openly
scorn such men us Wise. Time ant
again he evinced desire to make
personal attacks on members of tn.
Constitutional Convention, denoun
cling them as pirates and conspira-
tors. His harangue was interrupted
by the Chief Justice, however, anu
ne WAS made to speak more to tn,
point Aside from his eulogy of biz
colored assistant, and his praise OF
the Underwood Constitution, the
most remarkable feature of his ad
ress was his effort to get into the re-
cord some affiGsvits which opposing
counsel had neither seen nor had CD
portuDity to see.
In marked contrast to the stumt
speech of John S. Wise in his effort
to break down the Constitution was
the dignified, forcible, and compre
hensive argument of the Attorney
General of Virginia, when be adj
dressed the court in behalf of tn,
State Board of Can vassers, and IL
opposition to the application for th,
injunction.
The speaker declared that the new
Constitution was the great chart of |
the Liberties and prosperity and the
Virginia people, and that the man
who would break it down would
strike at the best interest, not only O,
the white but of the black people of
the State.
He characterized Capt. Wise's
statement that the position of Vir-
ginla In the union was inferior to
that OF any OF her Sisters as "a '.polIt-
ical heresy," and he delved down
deep into the organic questions relat-
ing to the rights of State under
the Federal Government.
