Twenty-three hud arrived. — Governor sent for (.'licit Justice Pear son who arrived here last night. Gov. Ho - ilen proposed to obey the writs to-day, issu ed by the Judge heretofore and deliver pris oners before him in Chambers Sixteen or eighteen arrived-here this afternoon after the writs issued by Judge Pearson had failed, because Gov. Holden refused to deliver the prisoners. Judge Brooks appliesl to and is sued writs under the IBih amendment Os the Constitution of the United States for the do- i livery of all prisoners, and ordered a return made to him a Salsbury to-day. Holden and Petvrson thus snub Judge Brooks Anx- ' iety is felt for the result. Other arrests have been made by Kirk recently. Much indig- 1 nation is felt at the treatment of the ptiso ners. The editor of tlie Sentinel was put in a dungeon cell in the. jail at Graham with a negro, condemned to be hung for i ape, to- I morrow. Later dispatches from Salsbury say that Mr. Turner, editor of the Sentinel, and 23 others had arrived. They all appear in good spirits. Prisoners brought before Judge Brooks. Kirk allowed all till 3a. m. to-monew u> make returns of prisoners re leased on own recognizance of thousand dol- j lavs. Ife brought all the discharged writs granted for thirty more parties still under j arrest. Bergen arrived in Raleigh at 4 o’- | clock with prisoners, for whom Pearson had some time ago issued writs. A motion was ' made by counsel for the dismission of the pe- j tit ion and retract it upon production of Wil ly under the charge of tlie murder of Steph ens. Holden's counsel made a counter mo tion for oonuiiumcnt upon the bench warrant on the afhduvct of Berger, motion lies over until to-morrow. Pearson bailing Willy in the meantime in the sum of $5,(00. The other 18 prisoners brought to this city are still under Holden's guard. Loving Others Best. Away oft in Edinburg, two gentle men were standing at the door of a hotel one very cold day, when a little boy, w ith a poor, thin face, his feet bare and red with the cold, and with nothing to cover hirn but a bundle of rags, came and said: “Please sir, buy some matches.” “No, I don’t want any,” the gentle man said. “But they are only a penny a box,” the little feftow pleaded. “Yes, but you see we do not want a box,” the gentlemen said again. “Then I will gie ye twa boxes for a penny,” the boy said at last. “And so to get rid of him,” says the gentleman, who tells the story in an English paper, “I bought a box. But then I found I had no change, so I said: “I will buy a box to-morrow.” “Oh do buy them the nicht, if ye please,” the boy pleaded again. “I will rin and get ye the change, for I am verra hungry.” “So I gave him the shilling and he started away; and I waited for him, but no Doy came. Then I thought I bad lost my shilling; but still there was that in the boy’s face I trusted, and I did not like to think bad of him. Well late in the evening a servant came and said a little boy wanted to see me. When he was brought in, I saw it was a smaller brother of the boy that got my shilling, but, if possi ble, still more ragged and poor and thin. He stood a moment diving into his rags, as if ho was seeking some thing, and then said:— “Are ye the gentleman that bought the matches from Sandie?” “Yes.” “Weel, then, here’s fourpence out o' your shilling, Sandie canna come; lie’s no weel. A cart run over him and knocked him down, and he lost his bonnet, and his matches, and your sev enpence; and both his legs are broken; and lie’s no weel at a’, and the doctor says he’ll dec. And that’s all he can gie ye the noo,” putting the fourpence down on the table; and then the poor child broke down into great sobs. "“So I fed the little man,” the gentle man goes on to say, “and then 1 went with him to see Sandie. I found that the poor little things lived with a wretched, drunken step-mother; their own father and mother were both dead. I found poor Sanditf lying on a bundle of shavings. He knew me as soon as I came in and said: — “I got the change, sis, and was com ing back, and then the horse knocked me doon and both my legs are broken. And oh Reuby, little Reuby! lam sure 1 am deein’l and who’ll take care of ye, Reuby, when lam gane? What will you do Reuby ?” “He lay within the light of God, Like a babe upon the breast; Where tlxo wicked cease from troubling, And the weary are at rest.” Children, listen ! This poor little man lying on a bundle of shavings, dy ing and starving, was tender, and trus ty and true; and so God told the gen tleman to take poor little friendless Reuby and be a 'friend to him. And Sandie heard him say he would do it — just the last thing he ever did hear; and then before I can tell ypu,, the darkroom, the bad otep-raother, the bundle of shavings, the weary, broken, little limbs, all faded away, and Sandie was among the angels.— Chicagoan.

If you could only trot his wind out so far that he could never get any of it back again, or break his back, ior neck, or something you would be immeasurably happy. But no. The little innocent is tougher than an Indian rubber car spring. Just as you are about giving out— concluding that you must freeze —that there will certainly have to be a funeral in the house inside of thirty-six hours, and then, with teeth chattering like a McCormick reaper,, you crawl in by Alary Ann again and try to sleep^ sth. Gradually you glide away into a tangled maze of cherry lips, ice. steamwhistle voiced babies, dimpled cheeks, more ice, May-flowers, skating weather, chammomile, jockey club, sleigh rides, crinoline immense as tho old bell at Moscow, Indian ambus cades, chignons like door mats, awful Grecian bends, angels, snow storms, and forty other reminiscenses. 6tli. A snort, a thrash, a wild throwing upward of little arms and legs, and then, keen and shrill, comes that terrible “ Ali-wah 1 ah-wall 1” again. I guess you wake up, don’t you ? “ Get the paregoric and a teaspoon, quick!” says Mary Ann, in a sharp, staccato tone, and don’t you get it ?

Some black, rascally, stormy n ght, about tho close of tho above apoch, you are turned out into streets all ponds and mill races, or amid snow eighteen inches deep, and drifting like blazes, and told to run for the doctor. Yl hen you get home, a little rod flami el-100 king thing about the size of a big merino potato undoubtedly awaits you. They will call it a baby.

Paregoric and soothing syrup, and catnip tea, and long flannel, and diaper Huff, and baby colic, and more squalls —they will come along, too ; in fact will become just as much at home in the house as-dinner, 4th. One of these days, in— ‘•The wee smft’ lma-s ay nut the twak you turn out again. This time you are found barefoot, distractedly rock ing that baby back and forth, and bobbing it up and down in a cane-seat chair, and shivering icy, disconsolate sense of dampness ill about you ; seat hard, only a cotton shirt, or such a matter, nearer than the bed to keep you warm, roaring musically as a wild bull in a slaughter-yard— not such as to make you hurry any Gracious, little Peter, he is describ ing diabolic curves with all the arms and legs be’s got, and screaming 100 pounds to the square inch, and Mary Ann she is rearing around tlicie in the bed, making a rocking chair of her back, and yelling bye-bye, O, liko a wild Cammanche on the war path that’s all. Nice, ain’t it? And then to think that as years rod on, there has got to be more and more yet of just such distressed work, j 7th. Then comes the washing days, | too, and the spring cleanings and | moviegs, —-when . your books, and ! papers, and custard pies, and carpets, and plug hats, and molasses, and feathers, and baby fixings, and pan cake batter, all get stirred up together; when Mary Ann, dress tucked up, han kerchief around her head, broom in one hand, mop in the other, pretty as cistern-pole, temper searching as a dose of ipecac, goes about hunting spiders’ webs, and dirt, and spots and grease spots, and such things, while Bridgett, the inevitable Bridge tt, slop ping soap suds all over everything, brings up the rear. Bth. Then there is that mother-in law of yours, and the six or eight female cousins. . They have just come over to visit a bit, and each one has brought all. he*’ trunks and band-boxes along. And that, too, when you could so easily have spared all but the mother-m-law. 9th. And so I might run on and on These things are thicker in such places than little toads on a country road after a summer thunder shower. You can’t dodge them. They come with married life just as sure as death and taxes. Bad! Very bad, my friend. Only one condition in the world much worse, than I know of. And that is (I don fc mind telling you,) that is the single condition
