The Genuine Tar Heel.
Wo believe tlie above epithet found its
origin in tins Slate and was applied by ilie
pretentious Carolinians to the natives of
North Carolina, because of their traffic in
turpentine. At first it meant no disrespect
to tbc person himself, but finally became
nn appropriate sneer for tho people of this
State to apply to the one horse itinerant
tobacco peddlers of the old North Slate
who would oitch up a plug of tobaccoJicrc
ami there around their homes (if they had
any) and with it perambulate through every
nook and corner of the Palmetto land.
But be it understood that we do not pretend
to say that every peddler of tobacco is a
in can man. Or. the contrary, some of them
are good and true men. The peddlers we
have refcrenco to arc the few who cheated
their employers and had to quit their
country for their country's good. This
claps love money, have sonic energy, which
comes on them in spasmodic fits, will fool
the unwary, and defraud an honest and
unsuspecting creditor at the first moment
nnd cpj oitunity is afforded, and then go
into bankruptcy and come out with some
money and good cloths on himself and
finiily. This done home then becomes too
Lot for them. They usually have wives
lftcrtheir own hearts, thoroughly aconnin- -
ted with their ways that arc dark an I
trickB that aro vain, and n stauqede into
mother State is usually agreed upon . The
cars arc boarded, the people ring hells and
sing Ecngs of rejoicing at the riddance of
so pestiferous a set of human creatures,
while the pilgrims to South Carolina,
unmindful of what's nolng on without, join
in one grand strain and sing?"Wears
bound for Caiman's.happy hind." When the
whistle blows, and the train starts, the
madam (no longer the gin feeder and
bankrupt' s wife) puts on an air of nssinnod
importance, and when the conductor comas
through sho throws her head to one side an I
says "Oh my! I am nearly worn out. This
truveiling is so irksome, llow far is it Mr.
Conductor to- ttulion ?" The shrewd
conductor, understanding banian naturo,
and determined not to be iuipo sed upon
says in no inillitluous tone, "Madam wc arc
not eight miles from where you boarded tho
cars. Your fair if you please." This is
bluff No. 1. When the conductor returns
to his office he swallows a glass of N. C. C,
und solilloquiscs to himself thusly : ' Either
some people take me for a fool or I take
? hem as such." Hut to hurry on. Muff
No. 2. , was given by n news boy. lie was
pos.sing through the cars selling illustrated
papers, such as Harpers, the Police Gazette
Days Doings Sc., whan upon reaching our
newly niado madam of all knowlodgo, she ac
c osted him with the inelegant salutation
"Say come h-c-r-eboy. Of course the youth
ever anxious to strike a bargain went as he
was called. After looking over his supply
madam said is this all you have. "No mam
was tho reply. Well bring the balance.
No tooncr Bold than he darted ofl"through
the cor, opined his box, snatched up tue
rcmuiiidcr of his books mid papers aud, with
aims full, returned to madam. An hour
was Bpout now in looking ovor his supply
and no selections made. I! is patience ex
hausted he said, "Mam do you intend to
buy any thing or no ?" "I c-a n-t sec what
I w a-n-t" said madam, "1 thought you had
some, ladies patterns for drassj.i, basques,
huts fee." Mud as the devil, up to this time
tho ucoommodiitiug boy grabbed up his
things, turned ubruptiy off with the sar
casm?"You must take mc lor u mh.i.icr."
Hero madam opened h?r eyes and wondered
if ho knew that sho had bocn a milliner.
This was a swinger. Hero tho car roared.
In our opinion it was time. The next
stoti on gjaincd, tho' bnggngo had to bo
changed. I Now thought madam was tho
time to majke a display. Husband must Htand
aside (I (forgot to say that ho was ken
pooked) nyui she must attend to reohcoking
the baggojgo (.') trunks and 1 box for a fani
ly of 8).' Boldly sho confronted the bi.g
gage-mastcr and heroically did sho demand
tho instant transfer of her baggngc. "He
careful with that trunk said madam "for it
has valuables in it." "Why didn't you send
it by express then," a blunt son of Erin
muttered to himsslf. Tho terrible work,
however, of transforiug and rcchccking tlie
trunks was at. last gotten through with, and
madam took a seat in another train with
her lord and family: "I'm so tired" <eho
said. "7'finn hands givo mo so much
trouble. Thry aro a stupid set of folders."
Just at this time a son of Erin came
through the car und with a withering look
of "disdain J-nd contempt at the madam
passed ou and said "You're a brick old wo
man.*' Madam's lord had sat mute all this
time, but thought it Would not hurt him
iG-_?0 Toward and take a smoke. Here ho
met the conductor and (ho baggage-master,
the la ttcr of wlu m said to him "old man is
that your wife back there ?" ??Yes," was
the rejoinder. "If you please then attend
to your own baggago nt tho next station."
Husband eyed the brawucy limbs of his in
terrogntor and with a compromising smile.
"Now I always let the old woman have her
way in such HlUoJ things, and coaie lot's
take a driuk of good old mountain dew."
"Well,'' said Paddy, you can, do as you
please, but be-jabers if sho was mine nor
lhar's a devil if I didn't stop her. Such
little things lade to bigger ones by jolly."
The next station gained, Madam was tit her
post, checks in hm'! and demanded bag
gage. "Madam" said the Irishman, havn't
3'ou a husband on board who could at tend
to this?" "I Lave one,'' said madam "bat
whenever I want any tiling done right I
never liust it in his hands, especially when
he has c bottle along. He ain't much ac
count no how."

Gibson's, a small miiiingVdlage in Penu
Bylvauin, was recently I lie scene of a beast
ly outrage, viz, the violtitioa of a respect
able gill, a Miss D.ivis. thirtoea years of
ago, by a dissipatod fellow nun-i-l Martin
Uroves, thirty-fivej-enrs of age. The orimo
was committed on the in irgin of wo ?Is n J.ir
t he town, while the girl was proeeo ling on
an errand for her mother. Groves wm
lying in ambush at tho time, ami suddenly
assaulted his victim. When the story w is
made known throughout tho village tho
greatest excitement prevailed. A crow 1 of
twenty-five men gathered and decided up on
seeking out droves and giving him summary
justice. They proceeded in a holy up th o
mountain near the town and captured him
in ihe woods. They then took him down
into a deep depression betwocn two of the
loftly hills. In that lonely valo, by the
light of the moon struggling through a
heavy mi?t, the infuriated miners executed
tho sentence they pronounced against him,
which was that he should die. Ilii eyes
were bandaged, and his hands bound behind
him, and then he was hange 1 to the limb of
a chestnut tree, and left there until he was
dead. He was afterwards buried near the
hut, where he had lived for years. The out
rage on the Davis girl was not Grove's first
crime of thut nature. The commission ot
farce similar outrages was said at his do< r
by general belief, whhdi had m t lo him a
terror to all women and children.
