obtain licenses from me clerks under 30s again at the conclusion of the j last war a huge sum ui paper money ' was struck to pay off the expenses thereof which sum was sunk by a tax of 4s per poll in the term of the years the money was struck tor which tax of 4s has been continued ever since not withstanding the great increase of in habitants which caused i suspicion that the officers pocketed the whole of the-i tax raised on the new settlers again a few years ago the treasurer of the pro vince lied and m his house was found a large sum of money several thousand pounds indorsed the public money winch was all the s u lsiaction given the public in respect to that treasurer's accounts notwithstanding which the tax continued and no account being rendered lo tne people gave great un easiness inese and numberless other instances i the iire kind caused the in nabitants of lioan orange alison and an i mecklenburg counties to send cir cular letters about lour years ago from one to the other setting forth their j grievances and forming schemes to have redressed on which they uuani iimusij petjtioueti ll:r governor d assembly to redress their grievances un receipt of which the < rovernor gave filler that all officers that had taken more or larger fee than the law ai iowed them should be punished ac c rding to law this pleased the people and encouraged them to apply to the justices of the peace for warrants against their oppressors knowing of no other mode whereby f o recover the monies they had unjustly paid c but the justices refused to grant them on which complaints were made to the grand juries to find bills against the offenders but the juries being caretul ly made up out of the old slier ffs bums and other court officers no bills scarcely could be found against the of fenders and where a chance bill was foun i the highest fine laid on them was only six pence but on the other hand if any of the complainants happened to be indie 1 be the offence never so trifling t heir tines were seldom or never less than l 100 which has in fact been the case being thus beat thev were laughed at and called fools and asses &<-., c then some of the inhabitants of orange county met and concluded they would pay no more public taxis till a full state of their public accounts was published and a fair settlement made and under that conclusion bonnd themselves by an oath to stand by and support each other in this their resoulution as it was clearly their opinion that the public had more money in bank than would pay all their public dues c which resolution was son adhered to by the other coun ties things then began to be in great confusion the people refusing to pay caused the sheriffs to execute on which u mob would rise whip the sheriff and any other that supported him after which they frequently petitioned the governor to interpose in the matter | and cause a fair settlement to be made to which he turned a leaf ear this so enraged the people that they stopped : several courts from doing business by j raising into in b.s and ordering the judges not to sit however before i anv courts were disturbed the govern or raised a large army of men at the j request of one fanning clerk to sev eral of the courts in the province and an attorney at law and stands charge 1 with being the principal oppressor of the poor people which armed force cost the province 18,000 these ! preparations caused the people to take arms however they never carried their arms into the towns great numbers of them went with a petition to the governor for the purpose aforesaid on which the governor told them that if thev would bring in their arms and j deliver up such men as he should name | tu be put to death that they should i have a settlement on terms as he i should think proper which offer was refi sel by ihe people and thev return ed to their habitati ms and the gov ernor disbanded his men after this mother trial for redress in the law way was made in orange county in which they were as unsuccessful as j heretofore which caused a resolu-j tion that there should be no courts held till a settlement or until their grievances were redressed ; whereupon at at the general nt hillsborough town in orange county a mob came in arm ed with rawhide whips and went to the judge and king's attorney who they desired to go home and guarded them safe to their houses telling them that they shou'd suffer no damage and that they might hold court next day etc their next f*tep was to take the aforesaid fanning and some other law yers out of the court house to whom thev gave cow hide correction very se verely they then went to fann ing's house which thsy leveled with the ! ground and destroyed the fur iture j doing damage to the amount of 1500 after which they offered fanning to repair his house and make good all his damage if he would repay the money he had unjustly taken from them to which he answered that he only want ed revenge and revenge he would have : etc after this the general assembly ■ of the province was called and an elec j tion ensued sit which herman hus bands and thomas parsons were chos en by the country party as members of the house their enemy fanning was also chosen hen the house met their first step was to expell hus bands and parsons from their seats husbands they sent to goal parsons ; home they then passed a riot act the substance of which was that any person or persons being guilty of any riot either before or after the publica tion of this act within the jurisdiction of any court within the province shall and may be indicted nd when so in dicted shall appear and stand trial be fore the experation of sixty days and if he she or they do not appear no ticed or not noticed within the term aforesaid they shall and are hereby de clared to be outlawed and shall suffer death without benefit of clergy c and his lands goods and chatties con fiscated and sold at the end of eight davs the publication of this act to gether with the account of husbands being in goal set the whole country in an uproar and a great number of men collected and went in a body to take husbands out of goal on hearing of which a court was imme liately called husbands tried proclaimed an honest man and set at liberty when he met the people they returned every man to his home thus matters lav till march last at which time the court was set at salisbury in roan county 400 or 500 men eoilecred a.'ir iirirtd marched within two miles of the town where they halted and sent a small party in to town for mr frohank clerk of the court surveyor and secretary of the land office and some others of the chief men at which request frohank and two others went out on which the people desired them as officers to settle with the inhabitants and if they had exacted more fees than by law was their due to return the same to the per r son from whom they were exacted to which frohank answered that he well knew the country had suffered much by such oppiessive dealings and that he himself had in some cases taken too much fees and did then re turn some fees c on which an agree ment was made and bonds entered into to submit their dispute to seven men then mutually chosen which men wen to meet on the third tuesday in may to go over the court docquet and fin ally settle all the lees thereon order the several officers to repay all such sums as should appear to have been paid more than by law they ought to have paid c this gave general satis faction near about the same time a general court was held at new berne at which court thirty-two persons were indicted under the net riot act for pulling down f inning's house several of whom lived in omnge county two hundred miles distance and was at home when the house was pulled down notwithstanding which they were out lawed however before the expira tion of the term given by the law for them to appear the governor marched : with a body of 3,000 men and seven ; pieces of artillery against the rebels as he then styled them in order to take those persons who stood indicted to put a stop to the growing rebellion and principally to prevent mr fro . hank from settling with the people agreeable to his bonds as may appear by his letter to mr fiohank at the time lit 1 began his march iu which he ordered him not to settle with the peo ple and also threatened to strip him of his commissions for what he had done which threatening he in part in ide good by taking the colonel's commis sion from him an armed force now marching into the heart of the coun try with an angry governor at their head threatening destruction to the honest frohank,destroying wheat fields cutting down orchards and burning tlie houses of every person that mr fanning or other man in the army should charge with being a rebel so terrified the people that they run to gether like sheep chased by a wolf till they gathered to the number of about 4,000 and every bouse that tlie army found deserted they destroyed together with the cattle sheep hogs poultry and everything on the plantation ■ tlite officers £.>!:.- i'apgj i be i ua these are fact notorious thus they marched till they crossed almace run in orange county on the 10th of may 1771 without any opposition there the 4,000 rebels met them and sent james hun tor and benjamin merrill with a petition to the governor and j orders to treat with his honour for ; peace to which the governor an ■ swered by his aid de camp that the ( people must come in deliver up their arms pay off their taxes swear to be subject to all the laws of their country and to deliver such men as he should i name to be put to death otherwise there would be bloodshed in one hour j and ten minutes before the expira tion of the time tlie aid de camp re turned and asked if they wanted more time they answered yes he then j promised to give then two hours more which gave the people great hopes of j an accommodation the army during j this time was marching up and the people moved off to give them room and as soon as the aid • de camp re turned a field piece was fired in the ; midst of the people which killed one man and frightened 3.700 from off the ground leaving only 300 to settle the matter who returned the fire briskly . for some time when the governor hung out a flag and beat a parley but they knowing nothing of the mode of war continued their tire on which the governor concluded that they were de termined to give no quarter and again fired on them which continued about two hours and a quarter when hunter and his men fled and left the field to i the governor how many of the j country were killed is uncertain how ever this we know that there are but 30 missing some say there were but nine i killed and that the governor lost a great number of men how that matter is time only must show the govern or took some prisoners of whom he j hanged seven the first man was ! hanged in the camp because mr fan ning said he helped to pull down his j house when in fact the poor man was i not there at the time benjamin merrill was one of the number hanged a man in general esteem for his lion \ esty integrity piety and moral good life the governor now calls in the inhabitants by proclamation declaring the king's pardon shrill be granted to all that come in they immediately , go in and comply therewith he then proceeds on the 2lst of may the day j that their accounts by their bonds | was to have been settled to the houses '. of the people that entered into bonds ; as above and destroying everything that was in his power to destroy by fire . and sword then marched his army back with orders to punish all such as should be so hardy as to complain and j thus his honour returned victorious to his piace at newbern 11 0 that nay u"0;:'l was water and my eyes a fountain of t - s that i might | weep day and nighv"»or the sluiil of niy , people - — — i — i — — knows all about corks the queerest hobby on recorn is that in which l)v hammond interested an ! indolent patient in order to occupy his j mind a man once came to me said the ' doctor who was suffering very severely from having nothing to do lie came i to me bewailing ins state of mind i i have nothing to interest me in life ! he complained i have an abundance of means and my money is so invested that i have nothing to do but cut the | coup mis off my bonds and there is no j trouble to take care of it i have j nothing in the world to interest me or j occupy niv time i have been gradu j ally becoming low-spirited and melan j choly and i shun society if you can j give me something to live for i will be ! greatly indebted to you i told him to collect bottle corks ! and he took to the suggeston at once i and now owns the most wonderful col lection of corks of anybody in the world probably he classifies the i corks according to the character of liquor their bottles contained and the countries from which they come he has bee me a marvellova expert and j his collection deserves to be exhibited j in the national museum he will pick ■ up a cork in the street and at once tell j that it come from a bottle containing i such a wine and from such and such a country of course tnat man's mind cannot be of a very high order to be satisfied ' with doing nothing but collect bottle corks but the occupation is sufficient j for him what he has accomplished ] however is really remarkable and he has the satisfaction of knowing that he knows more about this line of study than any other living man — wash ington post — - — ** a sound logal opinion e bambridge munday ksrj county atty clay cm tex says have uul electric bitters with most happy results my brother also was very low with main lial fever ami jaundice but wan cured by timely use of this medicine am satisfied electric bitters saved liia life mr d i wiknxson of horse cave ivy adds a like testimoney saying he mmi tiveljbelieves he would imtc died had it not been for electric bitters tnis^reat remeily will ward off aa wel as cure all milaria diseases and for tl kidney liver and stmn icii disorder stand unetju-iled price 50c nd 1 a t f km & co time w lit o.i no m 111 because some men are su long iu coaxing tu time dire devastation ] 1 i y the destroy vo sweep f thk torm j wilmington del sept 12 a ] lewca j«p cial in the evt-ry evening | slates that no l;m$;nns;e can picture the i terrible cen along the const the wind i blowing with almost t w.n l cane ti-r.-encss driving the rain with i c force that cutnlikehiiih the half mile t reach ofsanf between the town and the i j coast is i tossing billowy ocean bear \ ing wreckage on every wave through ■ ( tlie mist of spraj and storm battered i sails and naked masted of a score of 1 deserted and dismantled vessels can be dimly seen since monday night rln ' storm has raged without abatement i yesterday's dawn showed a hundred 1 vessels which had sought the refuge of [< the breakwater the refuge was insuf i ficienf bv 1 1 o'clock the sea broke i over the breakwater wrecked the tele ;
