E. Causey, of North Caroli na, raided atid captured a blockade distillery, and in the distillery J. M. and W. M. Chapman was found on Eastatoe, last Sunday morning." "Raiding deputy collector Bllaylock, assisted by L. C. Thornley, J. C. Jon nings, and A. C. Fiden, a cutupblock ado distillery on cane creek, last Sal - a day night."--People's Journal. The two items quoted above are from the Journal and we are con strained to offer one of "1B." Lewis's soda water tickets for first correct so. lution, but refrain, as we do not ap prove of lottery schemes, especially, when it requires so much mental work; so will give them a cursory no tice instead. In the first paragraph it reads as if the distillery, only, was captured, and not the Chapman boys, when it is reasonable to suppose that if they were in there they were cap tured; especially, when it is the duty of an officer to make an arrest if he his proof of the offence, or has rea son or information to cause or make him believe that party arrested, or wanted, has committed said offence and the unwritten law with deputy marshals is to "nab" everything in sight. In the next notice he makes a "bad break" for he makes the type read as if the parties were "a cut up blockade distillery on cane creek, last Saturday night," when we know there is no convincing argument that evolu tion can take place in so short a time and that another transformation would be perpetuated the next day. There were several hundred gallons of beer and mash poured out and the fumes of this, together with being out in the "pure mountain dew," may be sufficient cause for this mistake. We don't know. Contemporary, hereaf ter, confine yourself to facts, the King's Englisli, and a careful perusal of your proof-sheets. T. Childresa Day. No flash in the pan this time.
