how many lamentable commentaries haa ihit country,
this county, tbia community had upon the barbarous cus
tom of carrying deadly weapons, V eir alter year, mnntti
after month, the cue torn and ita necessary result prevails.
Men ere'butcbered in our atreett; in our walks we tread
en the (pattered blood of oar fellow men and friends, untifl
the moral sensibility of the community is blunted and case-
hardened to such a degree that, while the stealing of a
hom would unquestionably subject the delinquent to the
ordesl of a rope and a pine limb, the komicidsj walk the
streets a brave man, Justified in the eyes ef the law, acath
' ieas and free. Now let us not be understood in this article
aa mesninsr to eccuseinlv a few Individuals. We have no
v personal enmities to tratify and do not intend to wound
any individual beyond his share. We strike at the code
-and practice of tbe whole community as touching- this
point It is wrong, and outrageous. From the Legisla
ture.dowD to the littlest and lowest, there is an entirely
false sentiment prevailing. It requires no argument, it ad
mits of none to prove that tbe custom of carrying bowie
- knives is sn offence againat moral sentiment and tba pub.
' lie peace.. True, the public looks complacently upon it.
True-tha Legislature in its great wisdom and morality le
.- gilizes it by .placing I contemtible tax of ome hollas up
on a bowie knife, when it ought to make it a Penitentiary
offence to wear one. But all tbia cannot make it right.
-"It so offends against the plainest principleaof law and or.
- der, of moral right and common sense, of civilisation and
justice, that it seems an axiom self evident
' iYet tbe Legislature legalizes it, legalizes bloodshed and
murder, bow I Every one knows for what tbe bowie knife
.va invented, end is manufactured. Nobody will b fool
' enough to say it is made or worn for any purpose except
to hark human flesh, litis not an ornament, it is not a
convenience. It Is an instrument of revenge and worn as
such. Tbe Legislature allows every man. for a dollars
year, to wear one. Now whatever is taxed we suppose
. is legal in . its ownership end use. The Legislsture not
f only legalizes the use of this "infernal machine" by taxing
I, but it goes, further and by express statute authorizes
' jraen to wear them! Oh potent seigi.ijrs, oh wiit sons of
-Solomon and Solon!
' Yet .up wise and reprehensible aa is such t law, the com.
. i. munity could in a measure remedy this shameful evil, were
. ITS feeling and practice right Men profess to be brave,
yet tbey dare not whisper above their breath, even when
v tbey think it, the name ef the deed; Muml is the word
silence the principle of action. Thus whatever turpit ude
ttachas aa Um set, nutters not, tbe community expresses
eio-opinion men look blank but speak not, and ajovchipt
villainy eUtka-absead bold and brawn, against ala lam
no one dares whisper what his heart feels, except m bia
own priraterooTB with the keyhole guarded.

fester and putrefy and poison the public taste and morals
and salty? But if truth can be heralded from ho other
source, we are determined whatever may be the result, to
, speak truly and plainly, exercising the right which every
freeman, wUb) a character and interests sua lite ana sell-
lespect to protect possesses. : We want the community to
f put down by ita decided and expressed sentiment this cut
throat law among us that has dethroned all other law.

snd Natchaa the mail is to run only twice in a week.
Some contractors through a apirit of opposition aend in
bida to the Department for amounts that would not half
pay expenses. As a matter of course, their eontrscts
fall through, tbe P, 0. Department ia put to great addi
