NORTH CAROLINA. Affairs in the Alleged Insurrec- tionary District. Character, Occupation and Social Standing af the Caswell Prisoners—An Officer Who Served the Writs of Habeas Corpus Arrested and Imprison- ed—The Murder of State Senator Stephens—Out- rages by Kirk’s Militia, ‘YANCEY VILLE, Caswell County, July 26, 1870. The excitement over the arrest of twenty-eight of the oldest, most influential and wealthiest citi- wens, who are now in close confinement in the ‘Court House here, grows more intense each day. By instructions from Colonel Kirk, commanding ‘the East Tennessee jay-hawkers and free-booters, mo person is admitted to see the prisoners, and whe apprehension that some of them may be tried and convicted on irresponsible testimony fby a court of Kirk’s ignorant, illiterate and par- ‘tisan officers, and perhaps executed by his fhand, keeps the community in a terrible mtate of ferment and suspense. Should such an unparalleled outrage as this take place at is impossible to conjecture the result; ‘but it is certain beyond a doubt that a terrible retribution would follow if the blood of any of the itizens be shed. The most impartial investi- gation fails to develop even the shadow ofa rea- son for the arrest of the class of men now impri- poned here, except that they are the victims of Governor Holden’s malignity, whose evident, ob- ject it is to precipitate a civil conflict, and if pos- ble throw the State back under military rule. this can be doubted a brief mention of who THE PRISONERS ow in the military bastile here are will make it -clear and conclusive, as suoh men could not pos- sibly be mixed up in any of the disorders or out- wages alleged to have been committed in this and adjoining counties :— ' Dr. N.M. Roan ia sixty-seven years of age, of (high character, eminent in his profession,of spotless ‘reputation and for over thirty years a leading jmember of the Presbyterian Church. Hon. John . Kerr, ex-member of Congress, ex-judge of the juperior Court, former whig candidate for Gover- ‘mor, an orator of national reputation and a gentle- man of high character and moral worth, now ififty-eight years of age. Dr. Albert C. Yancey is over fifty years of age,a leading and exemplary -oitizen, member of the Baptist Church and is the ‘Ooroner for the county. J. G. Griffith, the Sheriff of Caswell, pronounced by the radical Judgo Tourgee to be the best Sheriff and peace officer in ‘his district, is over fifty years of age and is re- «spected by all classes in the community. J. M. {Neal is a merchant of long standing who com- mands the confidence of everybody, and is a man ~of most unquestionable integrity, was never Known to have a personal difficulty in his life, ‘and is now fifty-five years of age. Hon. 8. tp. Hill is a gentleman of fine legal attainments, an extensive practitioner, former member in both branches of the State Legisla- ‘ture, was and is now the counsel of the family of Jate ex-Senator Stephens, who was mardered, is ‘a man of high character, singularly diligent in bebaif of his clients, and now abont fifty years of <page. Colonel F. A. Wiley, former Sheriff of this county, who resigned the position to give entire ‘attention to his farm, is fifty years of age, of high moral character, a law-abiding citizen, and per- ponally one of the most popular men among all olitical parties in the county. Yancey Jone: Prnee merchant and tobacco manufacturer, well known in New York, is over fifty years of age, an orderly and peaceable citizen, of the strictest in- tegrity, and at present one of the Board of Com- missionera for the county. William B. Brown, one of the largest farmers in Caswell, is mow sixty-five years of age, a leading member of the Methodist Church for over thirty years, a former member of the Legislature, and a gentleman of high social stand: ing in the community. J. C. Williamson, Ba: ‘Graves, T. J. Womack and J. T. Mitchell are all jarge farmers and prominent citizens of good moral character, members of different churches, ‘and, as they all are, peaceable and law-abiding witizens, Peter H. Williamson, another of the prisoners, ‘was sent here by Judge, Mitchell, of the Superior ‘Court of the district, to serve the writs of habeas corpus for the Caswell prisoners on Colonel ‘George W. Kirk, and, Having performed this duty, ‘was proceeding on his way to make the returns to he writs. when a squad of Kirk’s jay-hawkers on orseback arrested him and confined him in the ‘Court House, where he now is. ‘The Alamance \prisoners are of the same stamp, men who are the onennare advisers and leaders of the communi- ‘ties in which they live; and if to immure them in dungeons, deny thelr friends the bare privilege of peaking to them (a man was even arrested for ‘bowing to one of them in the street), and refuse them the’ sacred right of the writ of habeas corpus—if this is not done by a thired band of Tennessee outcasts for the purpose of creating a civil conflict and causing bloodshed, ‘then the people ask, What is it done for? The Governor, however successful he has been in creating outrages through the means of the ‘Ieagues of which he is the president in the State, will signally fail in his MURDEROUS DESIGNS in Caswell and Alamance counties, where the people are determined to abide by the civil law, @ the consequences what they may. The Presi- dent of the United States has recently given his assurance to the Hon. Bedford Brown, of this county, that no more arrests should be made by ‘the militia or State troops, except in aid of the ‘civil authorities. General Grant said that he had ‘been informed that no man’s life was safe in C: well, that citizens were shot, down. in the streets, on the highways, and that the civil authorities countenanced all these out- wages. Now in contradiction of these reports I have the assurance of two officers of the United ‘Btates army, now here, that they neyer knew a more law-abiding or more peaceabl disposed ‘community before in their lives; and the only two ‘murders committed in the county since the ‘close -of the war were those of which the Stephens fam- fly were the victims. The first of these was the mysterious murder of the late State Senator Btephens’ mother, at his residence, in the broad daylight. Sbe was found lying at her bedstde on the floor of the chamber with a deep gash ‘in her throat, supposed to have been made by a lath hatchet. She was an old dleore pia omen lar ner 5 ei Be years of age, and weighing about eig pounds; murder shortened ite few days or months she had to live, and upon the inquest her daughter-in- ‘taw, Mrs. Stephens, explained that the old woman iad fallen upon an article of chamber turniture, ‘which made the gash in her throat, and the pieces of which were then in the yard as she bad wn them out. This was allthat could be elicited at the Inquest. For the murder of Senator Stephens’ it cannot be ascertained who is directly responsible. , A prominent politician is said to have told a num- ‘ber of negroes from ‘this county in Raleigh that Stephens was not the man to lead the party in ‘Caswell, and that “HB MUST BE GOT RID OF.’” Among the negroes this manis regarded as an orator, and the Lae i above quoted, pro- pounced with such marked emphasis had with them a, peculiar signiticance. On their return here the greatest efforts were made to-dispose of Btephens politically, but, failing to do they resolved upon a more effectual mode of getting tid of him. On the day of his murder a demo- cratic meeting had been held, after which the ne- roes held a league. meeting. During the even- ng el was found missing, and a thorough search failed to discover his whereabouts. ie Court House was searched by the negroes that night, and even the room where he was after- wards found was examined. Negroes gin the Court House the entire night, and the next morning Stephens’ mangled remains were discov- ered in one of the jury rooms in the building. The inference is that Stephens was murdered to make political capital, and, like the disguised negroes in Alamance, who were ent to the Penitentiary for NEW.

WALL STREET, no other phe in ib this county, and the outrages THURSDAY, July 28—5 P. M. The Wall street markets continue dull. The cable until telegrams represented the situation in Europe a8 much more warlike to-day, and gold was steady m anticipation of a battle. The gold market now tn- cludes a large line of specniative cont acts, the’ “short interest having been organized by the “bulls” of the Stock Exchange with a view to do- press gold and advance stocks. KIRK'S CUTTHROATS came here consisted simply in the discharge of a negro from employment, or other trivial circum. stance, which were at once construed into intim- idation, and made into Ku Klux outrages. Since the arrival of the half-starved jay-hawkers, how- ever, there has been @ sufficiency of outrages to make up for the shortcomings of the county in this respect.

GOLD 121 A 122, Before the board gold was selling at 121!4, from Which there was an advance to 122 on the announce- ment that the Bank of England had further ad- vanced the rate of discount to five percent. Later, on the report that despite this advance in the in- terest rate and lower quotations for consols, our bonds were buoyant and had advanced to 82%. Gold declined to 1214, but the rumor circulating that the despatch was bogus, gold ran back to 121%. ‘The downward course of the market 18 checked by the large specie shipments and the firmness of sight exchange, which rose to 110%. ‘The course of since my arrival here, except the lady of the pri- vate residence at which I have been stopping. The hotel proprietor is a prisoner. People in the country are afraid to come here to purchase ar- ticles of domestic use they can morisf dispense with, All the communication now held with this garrisoned village is from Danville, in Virginia, and the company’s shops on the North Carvlina Railroad. One’ point brings intelligence from Baleigh and the other is in the centre of the friends and relatives of the people here. From the window of the room in which I write the raw recruits of Kirk’s command can be seen drilling over the streets in squads of twenty and thirty, and a more slovenly and dirty set could scarcely be collected. By the grace of his Ex- cellency Governor Holden the people here have a NEGRO MAGISTRATE who dispenses justice from his own standpoint, and is the ematen also. Registration, however, 1s little thought of except by the negroes, who are having their names recorded previous to the elections on Thursday. The magistrate and Reg- ister is an illiterate negro, who, to add to his other defects, lacks the common sense of the ordinar, “Sambo,” qualified to read and write. His deci- sions are, in consequence, rarely just, and his re- gistration book is a mass of hieroplyphics that even himself is puzzled to decipher. THE COURT MARTIAL to try the Caswell prisoners has been ordered, and will convene here despite the writs of Chief Justice Pearson, and his elaborate opinion that the civil law must be obeyed. Colonel Clark, of the First regiment of State troops, will be presi- dent of the court, and Colonel Kirk, of the Second regiment, will act as Judge Advocate. The re- earreeeratees of the court will be supplied from Kirk’s regiment, with the exception of Colo- nel Stephen A. Douglass, who is expected here to-night. The court will convene to-morrow, when the trial of the Caswell prisoners wili be commenced. The citizens here are not aware of this yet; its announcement will create additional excitement, and there will be fresh reason to an- ticipate a civil conflict, in which blood may be too the gold market is shown in the table:— + 121% + 121% + 121 LP.

HIGHEST AND LOWEST PRICES. The extreme tuctuations of the leading active shares were as follows:— PoveHKEErsig, July 23, 1870, A little after twelve o'clock on Wednesday the usually quiet village of Cold Spring was thrown into @ state of excitement by a report that the teller of the First National Bank of Fishkill Village, Mr. Browning, had been robbed, and that the thief had Wantonly shot and mortally wounded a citizen who had effected his capture. It appears that Mr. Brown- ing is in the nabit of visiting Cola Spring at stated intervals for the purpose of receiving the deposits of the various storekeepers who keep their account in the bank he represents. On Wednesday ho was there for that purpose, and had collected or de- Posited in a satchel he carried in his hand several thousand dollars. Having got through lus business he was standing on the stoop of Baxter's hardware store, waitlug for the up train, to revurn to Fishkill, when a man advanced quietly up to him, exciting’no suspicion, and throwing the contenis of & package of red pepper in the teller’s face, snatched the satchel and ran off at the top of his speed. Seve. ral persons who saw the transaction pursued the thief crying ‘stop thief.” The villian ran ito the grounds of Mr. Munsell, which are immediately ad- joining the depot. Mr. Munseil’s coachman (Blyjah Jones) hearing the cry and seeing the thief, Eehaty, rushed upon him and threw him to the ground, capturing the stolen satchel, when the thief drew a pistol and deliberately fired three shots, the last one entering the abdomen of the courageous coachman. ‘The poor wounded fellow, wiih a courage that can- Highest.

The prisoner gave his name as John Smith, of No. 86 Grand street, corner of Greene, New York, a painter by occupation, thirty years of age.

To THB Epitor or tas HeRALD;— While we are about to inaugurate a new system and @ new activity ia providing our harbor with improved docks and piera for the accommo lation of shipping, it may be well to takeva short review of the Past tn order to point out some errors and ill-judged Proceedings under the old régéme whlch may and Ought to be avoided under the new? It Would seem on such a review°that there has been the most remarkable recklessmess and tnaif- ference of out city authorities in a matter which 40 vitally concerns the health of the Metropolis and its future greatness and glory. There is hardly ashipping Port of any pretension in Europe which lias not ela- berate and carefully executed plans for keeping the sewerage separate from immediate contact with the water of the harbor, while here in the chief shipping port of the Western continent the pestilenttal filth, the putrid carcases of dogs and disemboweled cats, the offal of the markets and the inky foulness of tn- numerable sinks and gutters which floats and festers in the water along the bulkheads and piers which engirdle our city presents a picture the most disgust- ing to contemplate and of the gravest sanitary im- portance. The stench which arises from some of the East River slips tn this early pertod of the warm ‘season Is already tearful enough to presage a pestl- lence. In looking to the future great dimiculties and em- barrassments must be experienced from the action and errors of the past. A large number of the city piers and bulkheads have been ieased, some of them for long terms vo private parties at a price which makes the leases, for the future, almost donations, Since the passage of the uew law raising the rates of Whariage these leases are putting thousands of dol- lara im the pockets of private persons, Which would otherwise go into the city treasury; but the Wwosrt of it ts that these piers are withheld during tie period of their leases from the application of any new sys- vem of operations, etther of construction or cleau- Ing, unless the city is disposed to spend iis mouey for these private parties, or otherwise buy back for large sums the franchises it almost gave away. It was a grave mistake that the city piers were thus put under the coutrol of private individuals, some of them for periods of upwards of ten year Short leases of not more than turee years’ should have been given, or, If long 5, they sould have been made terminable at a year's Lotice. ‘The attention of the Board of Aldermen was cailed to the fotten and disgraceful condition of the city piers by a committee of that body tn 1863, instew! ot proceeding vigorously with some systematic method of improvement, the management grew from bad to worse In the following year. The leases which then exptred were renewed, with @ provision that the lessees should do their own dredging. ‘Ths ‘Was certainly @ most stupid error, and betrayed an ignorance and a recklessness almost crimimal. A lessee might allow the dith to accumulate aiong the bulkhead of his lease until, becoming almost a wasit at low water, the waves from every passing steamer would stir up the putrid deposti and send its sickening eMuvia on @ pestilential mission. What remedy was there for such @ nulsance? If the see, looking to his own taterests and considering public decency, should dredge his slip, the dith of m3 neighbor lessee, more slovenly ‘and indit- ferent, would flow in with every changing tide and Ol His sup up again. Could he sue his neigavor aud recover damages for what the tide nad done? A lessee receiving from the city a slip properly dreaged aud cleaned might revurn ‘it again choked up and ilthy, because no survey of tts deposits was made on leasing. The ectty would thus lose the cost ot cleaning it again. Matters had come to such a pass that in 1865 a special committee of the Cham- ber of Commerce, of which Mr. George W. Biunt Was chairman, made thorough exanina: of tue wharves, plera and slips of the city aud presented a report to that body, including tabular statements of the rentals and’ Condition of | each pier, wharf and bulkhead on etther side of the city. This opportune action of the Chamber of Com- merce, led by the energetic exertions of Mr. Blunt, was tte beginning of the discussion and agitauon Which has culminated in the present Departinent of Docks. ‘The committee was tnatructed to proceed to Aibany with the report aud a memorial of the Cham- ber to urge the claims of this interest of the city upon the Legigiature. Although the commission rée- commended in the report was not then appoluted the agiiation commenced, seconded by the powerial efforts of the city press, has finally, in the provisions of the new charter, given ua the assurance tiat tie future will not be as the past. Without undertaking to determine, except with the fullest discussion, the particular design of tue piers to be constructed and the material to be used, whether of stone or of stone and tron combined: some general considerations in the plan looking to the utility aud convenience of the improvement along the margins of the city are sumlclentiy evident from the experience of the past. First, and open voulevard shout be constructed ad) to the water on Doth sides of the city similar to the quais in Paris and the Thames tmproveme London. Under these boulevards should be tm- mense main sewers to receive the contents of alt the crossiwwn sewers. These main sewers snould have their termmi at some convenient point near the Battery, from which thetr contents coud discharged during tue strength of the eb t ter stilt ouveyed in one main submarine Sewer to some point on the Narrows, below Gover. nor's Isiaad, in the construction of tuese great boulevards and mata sewers may tt not be a sugges: Vion worthy of consideration tat the city use the labor of tue criminals seut to Blackwell's Isiand, providing each with a zebra garment, ana working them in squads, under an eMicient superiutendent ? | As this work will always be adjacent w tie water, a ferryvoat could convey them to thetr work in te mornmg and return taem agaia to the island “at might. Wi of such @ Kind under the immediate eyes of th would be felt to U quickly reduce the Shonid not the city which supports a Board of Char. ite: Corrections and pays Tor a pottes force aud olice courts to take care of these crimmmals aud agaront have the’advantage of their labor ? ‘The work of coustructing stone aud tron piers with Spacious Warellouses upon them can only be begun in the present with the hope of their compicti along the whole water front of the city m tae ne. twenty-five years, It should be the settled policy, however, for the city tolease no more piers and slips by the year, except to public ferry compantes, after the present lessees release tueir the work of reconsiruction and go on systematically and regularly atoug Une of our water from The public mterests avd welfare will aiso require that in the transition from the present condition of tuings to the realization of the new system the Board of Docks suould provide for the proper dreiging and cleaning of all tie stips and basius on both sides of the city, so that tie saultary considerations involved shall have the Guaraniees of a systematic and comprehensive mettod, The maguitude aad cost of this great work, instead of beiag grounds of discouragement, shouid | stimulate those in authority to rouse to a sense of the importance and grandeur of the undertaking that they may ieave Mo means unapplied to hasten on its progress.
