A Pr ‘7 4 ~ The cousideration of the message. was post- poned uatll to morrow. Howss.—A report of evidence was made to— Sen foe the Committee of Reconstruction, from it appears that among the more impor— tant witnesses examined in relation to Virginia wores Judge Underwood, Lewis” MeKensie, General Turner, commanding the post at Rich~ mond, Major General Terry, Colovugl Orlando Brown, Charles H. Lewis, late Secretary of the Cotbmonwealtb, Gen. Robert BE. Leeand Briga- dier Genera! Corse, Jolin B. Baldwin, Williaw T. Joynes, John M. Botts and others from that State, including seven negroes, were aleo exa:n- ined. General Lee represents that nothing like ‘a sen- timent of hostility to the United States Govern- meut exists in. Virginia; that there ate no combi- nations or conspiracies having that end in view; that the people, though disappointed and sadJeued by the result of the war, accept that result submis- sively, and are ooly looking now to their material interests, and that the surest. and speediest means of reconciling the people to the Government, aod making them its cordial supporters, is to extend to them equal political rights with the people of the other States. . As to the negroes, he expresses the belief, which he says he has long entertained, that the State would be much better without them, and he repu- diates the idea that cruelties were purposely inflict- ed on Federal prisoners of war. The testimony of the members of the Virgioia Legislature—gentlemen who had come as a dele- gation to Presideut Johnson—was egally impor- tant and interesting. They coneur in opinion as to the complete absence of any feeling looking toa renewal of the contest with the Government. The sword, and the people were content to abide by the decision and live henceforth faithful citizens of the Republic. They vepresert the feeling of the peo- ple at large and of themselves as uualterably op- posed to the idea of extending political eee to negroes, while, as to civil rights, the Legislatare was engaged in maturing ineasures removing most, if not all, of the obaoxious discriminations in the laws between whites and blacks, On the question of the coursé which Virginia would take in case of @ war between the United States and any foreign power, which ought afford the South a promise of establishing their indepen- dence, their testimony was decidedly on the side of loyalty. Ou the other hand the United States officers, Generals Torry aad: Tdraer, and Colonel Brown, and must, i! bot all, ofthe unqualified Union men, concur iu representing the sentiment of the people of, Vargiuia in relation to the Goyernment as un- improve, aud as rather having become embittered since Lee's surrender. They gay that at that time the people were bumble, sick of war, longing for peace on any terms, and ready to accept graceful- ly the padron of the Government, and to submit to any conditions that night be imposed while now they are arrogant, exacting and intolerant. Most of the witnesses of that class express the decided opii0on that the withdrawal of the Fed- eral trovjs and of the Freedmen’s Bureau would be followed by an unrelenting proscription of white Unionists and ‘he persecution aud remission to slavery uf the culor le. ‘The change of feel- ing is very generally ascribed by these witnesses to the President's liveral policy. Iu regard te the Federal debt, the people of Vir- gina are represented as in favor of its repudiation, or at least of combining with it the Confederate debt. The witnesses who have been connected with the Confederacy deny this, and represent the people as willing to pay their share of the Federal debt by taxation. Ou this subject General Lee's opinion is that they are willing to pay both and oppused to a@ re- pud a'ion of @ ther. Qutside of these maters of génetal enquiry here is one historical episode connected with the secession of Virginia, and the outbreak of the te- bellion, on whieh the the testimony of these wit- nesses was taken. There wasa conference sought for and held by Mr, Linculu with a member of the Virginia Sevessiva Convention, deleyated by the Wiion members of that body—Joho B. Baldwin— prior to the opening of the rebel batteries ou Fort Sumter. The first statement on the subject came from John KF. Lewis, an uncompromising Uaion man all through the war, and who had been bimself a ngeaiber of- the “PARSE. He testi Wit of the@fening off the:F6th ofA pril, 186}, he visited Jou Minor Botts in Richinond, and learn- ed from him that Mr. Lincolu bad inforined bim that he had had a interview with John B. Bald- win—Judge Summers, for whom a special meséed- gex-bad beeo sent, not being able to go to Wash- ington; and the Union members baving delegated Buldwip, and bad mede a proposition. that if the Virginia Cocvention would adjourn sine die, with- out passing en Ordinance: of jong he «Mr, Lincoln) would take the responsibility of with- drawing the troops from Kort. Sumter, Colohel Baldwin declined to accede to the proposition, and did not unica ito the Consent ibn the uext morning. * °° aay = : After heating the statement, Mr. Bewis prevailed on Colonet’ Bajdwin to accompatiy him to the house of Jr, "Botts, i who” reported ilement wade to hiat by Mr. Lineotn, * inet how in the nathe of God he could take the responsibility of withtiolding the knowledge of such an inter- view from, the Convention, to which Baldwin, looking at his watch, replied that it was then near the hour for the meeting of the Convention, that he would be there, and that he would see Botts again. : : .

A few extracts from‘an address. ofthis extinguished geutlomany delivered on Thursday last, in Philadelphia, as we find them stated in the Raleigh Progress, will be read with interest. After advocating at. some length the? proposition of aniversal suffrage, which he favored, Mr, Bee¢her approaches the subject: of the admiesion of Southern States to Cougress., He said: Lhold that it would be better that the states should be brought into the Union to-morrow, every one of them.— “And in this regard allow me _to say that I cannot go with either the President or congress. I would bring all in at oncc ; they mean to keep them all out at once. They would let in a part, and let the rest wait and see how they would like it. I know. they are stumbling on this point. If you let in Tennessee on that prif&iple you will have to let in all the rest: I like to see a man stand upon principles. They would let in Tennes- see, and Alabama, and Georgia, and when South Carolina came and asked why not let us in on the same principle as Tennessee and the others, they would answer, ‘Because we thought they would be better out than in.” On what principle do they do that? I will con sider that afterwards. This does not ‘eeem to be statesmanship. He referred to the objection so gener- ally urged tliat the south should be dis. franchised until it gave the guaranties that.congress aioutd require. He tho’t the best guaranty against rebellion had been accomplished by the war itself.— The population of the south had been doubly decimated. Four-fitth of the property of the section had been destroy- ed, and Mr. Beecher thought that for one hundred years they would curse the man who proposed another revolt. He thought the constitution a sufficient guar- anty, and the law of labor iu the south another guaranty. One passage is very emphatic, and we quote it: You seem to be stricken with fear that you have lost all thought of God, and Providence and natural law, and _ all power of moral influences and public sentiment but I have that faith in the cause, and that faith in God, and that faith in yon, when you wake to the fall cousciousness of what you are, and what your powers are, that [ am willing to risk, if the South were twice as strong, with what we have now on our side.— They cannot be long in withholding from the freedinan his rights guaranteed to him by the Constitution. On the other band Jook for one mo- ment at the effects of a prolonged exclu- sion ot the southern Sates. It is wean— ing the citizens of those States more and more from the National. Government.— For five years they have not thonght of Washington exc: pt to cursé her: ‘They havé not felt any blood running through them. that came from the national heart. It i¢-proposed to make them live five years more ont of the Union. Is that the way to make them love it? Is that the way to make them feel their need ? Mr. Beecher thought the utmost evil which conld follow ae admitting the Sonth would be the requirement of a little longer time to: do some things by legirlation. [He did not have faith in the -eificacy of accomplishing every thing by legislation. He believed in the -gra- dual influence of moral canses, in thc beneficial operations of reason and con— science. His conclusion was as fullows: * lam asked if 1 would take a man into my church knowing him to be a sinner. If I did not take them in while the were still sinners, [ woald’nt have enou i in the church to say “'we.” Itake the sinner to reform him. If they do not want forgiveness and patience I don’t know what need they wonld have for a chorch at all, I would let thein walk on their own. legs—throw away the cratches and ordinances of the church. The Sonth want kindness, words of gras ciousness and truth. They need no pat- ronizing, bat they need fraternal sympa- thy, and that, with them, will go focther and bring them to a bettermind than any denunciation you can utter. I have made war for thirty years against slave- ry, and wherever I’saw the serpent with out hesitation I smote him. I thank God the work is done. The Constitution stands now as the summer sky stands, advancing and advancing; and though no daisies blossom, nor sun warms, do we not know ‘that every advancing month brings ns nearer to the summer and to the perfect day of liberty. + eee No Rerrocrapive.—President John- son, in reply to a delegation from New joy who waited ou himtheother day, said : “Ido not know, gentlemen, that 1 can make any reply to the complimen- tery mgunefin which you have addrese- )Occtipying a position now that nee /Cduragement trom those. who are desi- | rons oO maintaining th@ first and original | principles of the goudaiment. My line of pohey is, I think, unmistakable, and T-have’advanced too far in life to -make any tetrograde moverjent; I éan_inake no step-back ward, and: I hope you will find that-the generouss coulidence you have given me has not been. misplaced. I can bay no more, but thank yon, gen tlemen.” oe JOHN RANDOLPH'’S. FAMOUS SECES- SION ‘RESOLUTIONS. . The following resolutions were drawa by Jobo Randolph, of Roanake, and passed with only two dissenting voices by a large and reapectable meeting. The original copy in maouseript, signed by Mr. Randolph himself as chairman, is before us, aud we have no doubt of ils entire correctness. The same was adopted with great unanimity io Prince Edward, Buckingham pnd Cumberland ; 1. Resolved, That while we return a grateful sense of the many great and valuable services rendered by Andrew Jackson, Esquire, to the United States, we owe it to our country, aod to our posterity to make our solemn protest against many of the doctrines of bis late proclamation ought to be, a free, sovereign and independent State ;” that she became so by ber own separate act, which bas since been recognized by all the civilized world, and has never been disavowed, retracted, or in any way impaired, or weakened, by avy subsequent act of bers. 3, Resolved, That, when or purposes of com mon welfare, Virgivia entered into a strict league of amity and alliance witb the other twelve col- onies of British North America, she parted with no portion of her sovereignty ; alibough, from the necessity of the case, the authority to en— force obedience thereto, was in cettain cases, and for certaln purposes, delegated to the common agents of the whole confederacy. 4. Resolved, That Virginia has never parted with the right to recall the authority so delega- ted, for good and sufficient causé¢; nor with the right to judge of the sufficiency of such cause, and to secede from the cenfederacy, whenever she shall find the bevefits of Union exceeded by its evils; Union being the means of securing liberty and bappivess and not the ead to which these should be sacrificed. 5. Resolved, That the allegiance of the peo ple of Virginia, is due to ber; that to ber their obedience is due, while to them she owes protection against allthe consequences of such obedience. 6. Resolved, That we have seen with de p re- gret, that Andrew Jackson, Esquire, lresident of the United States, has been influenced by designing counsellors to subserve the purposes of their owo guilty ambition, to disavow the principles to which be owed his elevation to the Chief Magistracy of the Government of the U. States, and to transfer his real friends and sup— porters, bound band and foot, to the tender mercies of his and their bitterest enemies—the ultra federalists, ultra bauk, ultra tariff, ultra iv- ternal improvement and Hartford convention men—the habitual scoffers at State rights, aud to their instrument, the venal and prostituted press, by which they have endeavdred, and but too successfully, to iuflaence aud mislead pub- lie opinion. 7. Resolved, That Virginia will be found ber own worst enemy, whenever she consents to number among her friends, those who are never true to themselves bat when they are false to their country. 8. Resolved, That we owe it to justice, while denoaneing this portentions ¢ombination be- cualition of his aud cur enemies, to acquit them of any dereliction of principle, and w acknow- ledge that they have but acted ju theif avuca- Dow, 9. Resolved, That we cannot consent to adopt principles which we have always disavowed, merely because they have been adopted by the President, aud although we believe that we sball be in a'lean and proscribed: miuority, we are prepared agaiu to take up our cross, confident of success under that banter, so lung as we keep the faith and can have aceess to the public ear, 10. Resclved, That while we utterly repro~ bate the doctrine of nullification as eqaally weak and mischievous, wé cannot for that reason, give oar countenance to principles equally unfounded and in the highest degress dangerous to the lib- erties of the people. 11. Resolved, That we highly approve of the inissivn of Benjamin Watkins Leigh, not only as iw itself expedient and judicivus, but as uniting upon the man the best qualified, whether for abilities, integrity and principles moral and po-~ litical beyond all others in the commonwealth, orin the United States, for the bigh, arduous and delecate.task which has been devolved upon him by the aoanimous suffrage of the Assembly and, #8 we believe, of the people, and which he alone is perhaps capable from all these consid— erations united in his person, of discharging with success and restoring this contederate republic to its former harmony and Union. Signed, JOHN RAMDOLPH, Chan's. ——_ +> ———— PREITY TIGHT.

The two vetoes. of the President—the first of the Freedmen’s Bureau Bill, the ‘last of the Civil Rights Bill—may be re garded as making an epoch in the Ame- rican politics, which presages, and, in- deed, necessitates a thorough change in arty organizations and relations. We ve already expressed our own views "/ as tu the veto message of the President, as and present below some extracts from deading New York journals in regard to it, <The World says: ©“ By thie wire and able message President John- fon has estublished a new claim to public cunfidence. ‘ite ‘showed himself, thus for, a statesman of sin- ~™ ‘tidepeutence, sét!-refiance and politica! cour * ® “Grew 2. sag # #- “The veto is a conclusive demonrtra- tion of what wis upparent before, that the conflict between the President and Congress admits of uci . ther compromi-e nor reconciliation ; and that the ¢ontroversy rau be decided ouly by ao appeal to their common rior, the sovereign people. The says: - +The message of the President a ing his Waenreas, By proclamation of the 16th and ed States, in virtue of the power vested him ‘Hy the Constitution and laws, declared that the laws of the United States’ were opposed and the execution thereof obstructed, id the Stases of South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas, by combina’ nary course of judicial proceedings er by the caaee vested in the Marehalls by law; And whereas, By another pi tiou, madé, on the 10th day uf August, in the same year, io pursuance of an act of Congress, approved July 18th, 1861, the inbabigants of the States o Georgia, South Caroliaa, Virginia, North Caro- lina, Teonessee, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, Ars kansas, Mississippi aad Florida, except the in- babitants of that part of the State of Virginia lying west of the Alleghany mountains, and to such otber parts of that State, and the otber States before named, a8 might maintain a loyal adbesion to the Uniow aud the Constitation, or might be, from time to time, occupied and con- trolled by the forces of the United States en~ gaged in the dispersion of the insurgents, were declared to be in a state of insurrection against the United States; . And whereas, By another proclamation of the fst day of July, 1862, issued in pursuance of an act of Congress, approved June 7th, in the same year, the insurrection was declared to be still existing in ithe States aforesaid, with the exception of certain specified counties in the State of Virginia ; And whereas, By another proclamation made on the 2d of April, 1863, in pursuance of the act of Congress of July 18th, 1861, the exceptions named in the proclamation of August 16th, 1861, were re- voked, and the inhabitants of the State of Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Alaba- ma, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi, Flori- da and Virginia, except the forty-eight counties of Virginia designated as West Virginia, and the ports of New Orleans, Key West, Port Royal and Beau- fort in South Carolina, were declared to be still in a state of insurrection against the United States. And whereas, The House of Representatives on the 22d day of July, 1861, adopted a resolution in the words following, namely : Resolved by the House of Representatives of the Congress of the United States, ‘That the present de- plorable civil war bas been forced upon the country by the disuvionists of the Southeru States, now in revolt against the Constitutional Government, and in arins around the Capitol. That, iu this national emergency, Congress ban- ishing all feelings of mere passion or resentment, will revoiiect only its duty to the whole country.

The Richmond Zimes publiches some interesting information rilating to the law imposing the direct tax, obtained from one of the United States Tax Com missioners now in Richmond. As this is aeubdject that interéstsa very large class of people, we give part of tlre Times’ statements : When the colleetor shall have kept open his office in a city, townor conaoty for sixty days, all the real estate subject to the tax, and on which the tax ia not paid, is forfeited to the government, and shall be sold ; but if the owner offers to pay the tax before the sale, he shall at the same time, pay interest, at the rate of ten per cent., on the amount of the tax from the day when the collector opened hia office in the county, city or town in which the lund is located. If the'prop- perty has been adverticed for ea'e, the owner wast algo pay the cost of the ad- vertisement. af Five hundred dollars value of the property on whieh the owner lives is ex empt from this tax; end if the said pro- perty was, in 1860, assessed at less than five hundred dollars, it is not sabject to thetag; bat the owner must neverthe lees have the certificate of the tax collec- tor to this fact, which will be given on application and a showing of the facte. Tue book of the State Commissioners of the Revenues will show the value of the property, bat it remains with the owner to show that he resides upon it. It is osnal for the Commissioners to take the state- ment of parties, though in ease of doubt they may place the applicant upon oath, The statement heretoture made that the party who owned real estate in 1860 or subjugation, nor purpose of overthrowing or in- terfering with the rights or established institutions of these States, bnt to maintain and defend the su- nion, with all its dignity, equality and rights of the several States unimpaired. And that as soon | as those objects are accomplished the war onght to | cease. Aud whereas, The Senate of the United States, on the 25th of Jnly, 1861, adopted a resolution. in the words following, to wit: _ Resolved, That the present deplorable civil war has been forced upon the country by the veto of the Civil Rights Bill, which we publish in fu'l in other columns, may po. command aniversal as- seat. But we venture to think that few State pa- pets have ever been given to the world that will so thoroughly compel tie attention of thinking men of whatever creed. or kindred, or party. * 2 * “Tt may be hoped that arguments so Cogent as those employed in the message will nut be throw away.

And whereas, these resolutions, though not joint or concurrent in form, are substantially identical, and as such may be regarded as having expressed the sense of Congress upon the subject wo which they reJate ; And whereas, by my proclamation of the 13th day of June last, the insurrection in the State of Tennessee was declared to have been suppressed, the authority of the United States therein to be un- disputed, and such United States officers as had been duly commissioned to be in the uninterrupted exercise of théir official functions ; And whereas, There now exists no organized arm- ed resistance of misguided citizens or others to the authority of the United States, in the States of Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama, Louisian’, Arkansas, Missis- sippi, Florida, and the laws can be sustatned and enforced therein by the proper civil authority, State or Federal; and the people of the said States are well and loyally disposed, and have conformed, or will conform, in their legislation, to the condition of affairs growing, out of the amendment to the Con- stitution of the United States, prohibiting slavery within the limits and jurisdiction of the United States; And whereas, In view of the before recited pre- mises, it is the manifest determiuation of the Ame- rican people that no State, of its own will, bas the right or power to go out of, or separate itself from or be separated from the American Union; and that, therefore, each State ought to remain and! constitate an integral part of the United States; And whereas, The people of the several beture- mentioned States have, in the manner aforesaid, given satisfactory evidence that they acquiesce in the sovereign aud inportant restoration of national unity ; And whereas, As it is believed to be a funda- mental principle of government that people wio have revolied, and who bave been overdone and subdued, must be dealt with so as to induce them, voluntarily, to becume friends, or else they must be held by absulute military power or devastated, | 8o as .0 prevent them Irom ever again doing barm | as enemies, which last named policy is abborrent to | bomanity and freedom ; Aud whereas, The Constitution of the United States provides for constitutional communities on!y | as States, and not a8 territories, depéndencies, pro- vinces, Or protectorates ; | And whereas, Such constituted States must ne-| cessarily be, and by the Constitution and laws of| the United States are made 5 and are placed | upon a like footing as to political rights, immunities, dignity and power with the several States with | which they are united ; And whereas, The observance of political eqaal- ity as a principle of right and justice is well vaicu- luted to encourage the people of the aforesaid States to be and become more and more constant and per- | severing in therr renewed allegiance : And whereas, Standing armies, military oceupa- | tion, martial law, military tribunals, and the sus-! pension of the privilege of thé writ of habeas corpus mn tine of peace, endanger the public liberty, is in- couatible with the individual rights of the citizen, | contrury to the genius and spirit of our free instita- tions ud exhaustive vf the national resources, and | ought not therefore to be' sanctioned or, allowed exeept for cases of actnal necessity for repelling in-, vasion or sv of insurrection or rebellion: . | And whereas, The policy of the Government of Me United states, trom the beyinoing of the insnr- ~ .

If a man sold real estate be- fore the 31st of Jane, 1862, he is not looked to, The party or narties in whose name it stocd on the Ist day of July, 1862, arexlone held responsible for the tax, notwithstanding that it may have been sold repeatedly since that date, In this city, and in whatever other cities, towns and connties in the State the collectors have kept open their of tices for sixty days, all the real estate up- on which the tax has not beea paid, is by law forfeited to the United State, but under instructions from the Secretary of the Treasury, the sales have been teri poraily deferred or suspended. Fo what length of time they will be snepend ed, itis impossib'e to say, It is believe! that w disposition to pay the tax being manifested on the part of those who have the means, will dispose the govern- ment to further leniency. ann ey a: President Johnston Abroad.—The Speeches and messages of Prosident Johnson are being translated into all the lang .ages and published in all the jour nals of Europe, and are meeting with an amount of attention and discussion that has ever been bestowed upon any politi- cal document in this generation. His Freedmen’s Burean veto message is less easily comprehended by the press of the continent than his message at the open- ing of Congress ; but tl:e President's ar- guments in favor of limiting the power, of the Executive are applanded as reach- ing the heights of political virtue, In the French and other continental papers that arrived by the last steamer. Presi- dent Johnson’s speech of the 22d of Fe- bruary is reproduced, in various lans guages; and instead of: ranting about the few personal remarks uttered by the President on that oéeasion, they find in ite vigorons statements, determined. pnr- pose, inagnanimons spirit, and indepen- dvnt position, everything to praise. Ina few days they will have the second Pre- dential veto to study : and in the Freed- men’s arguments on the rights. of the States, and the limitation of Federal power, they will find political dogmas as important to the snecessful operations of a free government ag any that could be uttered.— Baltimore Sun.

In order that ur readers may have the pleasure of studying. the odious Civil Rights bill, recently vetoed by the Pres- ident, and finally “passed by Congress over the veto, we givé “it in fullin this issue. A more infamous; »awarranted, and outrageous bill contd scarcely be con- coeted.' Every linig is an onlawfol usar. pation of power and wonton violation of the letter and spirit.of the Constitution. The reserved rights of the States are ut- terly ignored. If this bill is constitutional, then, in- deed, is ours a eentral, national govern- ment, or as the radicals design to make | it, a despotism, and the States mere Con- gressional districts of election. Tt would seem that the radicals in Con- gress are either crazy or traitors, Reason’ has'no efivet upoa-them. + Phey are bent oo the destraction of the govcrument, and the only chanee to fuil them in. this diabolical design, is for the conserva- tives to stand firm with the President, _by whom the government and liberties ‘of the people may yet be saved. ITere is the Lill referred to: Section 1. That all persons born in the United States, and not subject to any foreign power, exelnding Indians not tax- ed, are hereby declared to be citizens of the United States; and such citizens of every race and color, withont regard to any previons conditions of slavery or in voluntary servitude, except’as‘a punish- ment for crime whereof the party shall have been daly convicted, shalthave the same right in every State and Territory to make and enforce contracta, to sue, to be sued, be parties and give evidence, to inherit, panenees lease, sell, hold and convey real an rsonal property, and to be cated ts ihe full ieasal of all laws and proceedings for the security of persons and property, as is enjoyed by white citizens, and shall be subject to like punishment, pains,and_ penalties, and to none other, any law, statute, or- dinance, regulation, or custom to the eontrary, notwithstaning. Sec. 2. Any person who shall deprive any inhabitant of any State or Territory of any right secured by this act, under color of law, regulation, or custom, is declared guilty of a misdemeanor, pun- ishable by a fine not exceeding one thonsand dollars or imprisonment not exceeding one year, or both, at the dis- erection of the court. @re. 3.

Sec. 11. That opon all questions of law aris ing in any cause, under the provisions of this act, a final appeal may be taken to the Supreme Court of‘the United States. THE PROCLAMATION. We are glad to find that the views we have expressed asto the effect of the great Proclamation, in abrogating mili- tary tribunels and restoring the privile- ges of habeas corpus, are sustained, so far as we have seen, by the concurrent con- struction of the entire Northern press. The New York World pu's the matter ina very clear light. It says: “By President Lincoln’s proc- lamation of September 15, 1863, sus- pending the wit of Aabeas corpua, it was declared that “chis snapension shall con tinue thronghont the duration of such re bellion, or until this proclamation shall by a subsequent one, to be issued by the President of the United States, be modi- Jfied orrevoked.” We have quctel this for ifs explicit recognition of the right of the President to do what President John: son has now done. By this Proclamation, the Southern States are placed in precisely the same legal condition in which they stood previ- ons tothe war. If their relations to the federal government have been tempora.- rily” suspended or interropted, it was solely by the existence of rebellion; but that being ‘now officially declared at an end, all the constitntional rights of the insatgent States “revert.. Those States can-hereafter be sabjected to no excep- tional disabilities without a plair and palpable. violation of the, Oonstitation, as completely without legal exeuse as would’ be the infliction of similar disa- bilities on Massachnsetts or New York. The: Herald observes: : : “The ef astepe ee has the force of law. By it allthe civil rights of the people within the States lately in ‘rebellion are restored to.them.,; No military. or any other authority, except. ‘the regulir civil: authority, bas.any; more: power over the people of these States, than. over as in New.

The President not only asserte. that there is oo longer any necessity for withholding these rights bat he believes it would be injarions to the country, if not dangerons, . to do go. The language of the proclamation. is very clear and empatic on this point. he whole country will rejoice at the official declaration that. war and insur- rection and ,all the consequences of these—such as martial law, the snspen- sion of the writ of corpus, and civil disabilities. of every kind—are ‘‘at an end,” ‘The South will litt up its head in hope, will have the strongest | motive for loyalty, and will soon learn to for: get its animosities under the liberty, lory, prosperity, and grandure of the nion.

We regret this no little; but asa faizbful chrovicle of the news it is our duty to publish facts and which that peo— ple is moved, is not commendable. Of convictions aud submissions, there were not less than fifty; of the bills of indictment found the number is at least eighty; and there were a great many presentments and old war rants on whieb the parties had to be re~bound, because Mr. Solicitor Settle did not Lave time to draw bills. He worked day and night: drew over one hundred bills; but the Grand Jary, who could not on account of its numbers work so rapidly, acted apon only about eighty, We understand there several bills charging defend ants with murder. The old citizens, and sucl) as were called loyal during the days of the Southern Confederacy, are prosecuting the bush wackers and robbers; and, on the other band, the buslwackers, who now set themselves up as par excellence Union citiz ns, are indicting the militia officers and ench as acted under their or devs for assaults and batterics, forcible Crespasa es, false imprisonments, and murder. The spi- rit of retaliation has jost begun to move them and it is difficult to tell how far and to what extiemities it may impel them.” We chronicle these facets with profound con cern. In view of our external troulles, and the antipathies that exist (owards usia Congress and among the radical masses at the North, we had hoped that our people at home, at least, would cultivate a spirit of amity, reconciliation and harmony, ainong themsely +s. We have enongh to do te build up our; shattered fortunes and sex pair the ravages of war, without engaging in the unprofitable and unchristian work of crimian- tion and recrimination. We have no sympathy with any class of persons in our midst, who are disposed to indulge in harsh reflections wpon, or the persecution of, tbhosa who may have differ- ed from them daring the struggle from which we have justemerged. We deprecate the spirit which would taunt aman, on account of his honest opposition to the war and his consistent Union proclivities pending the contest, Just as much as we cgndemn and despise that ungen- erous and unmenly spirit, which would brand, as traitors and dupes, those who took up arms at the call of the State, or who adbered to its for tunes through all the varying phases of the wat. Byth are reprehensible in the highest degree. We appeal to the people of Randolph, and of all other loetlities, if any, where such un for- tunate dissensions may exist, to pause, —-for their own sakes and for the sake of the State, Let th m turn a deaf ear to the fomenters of these disturbances. There are few such in the South, we are ashamed to sav,—disappoined politicians, evil genii who delight to ride upon the storm of popular commotion and who revel in the carni- val of malignant and vengeful. passions,—men like Brownlow, and others that we might name. L-t us, by our own actiun, sustain the announcs ment of our voble President, that there is in all respects, Peace in the world. ->-+ AN ACT TO PUNISH VAGRANCY. Sxcrion 1. Be it enacted by the Gener al Assembly of the State of North Car- olina, and it 18 hereby enacted by the au- thority of the same, That if any persor who may be able to labor, has no appa- rent means of subsistence, and neglects to apply himself to some honest occupa- tion tor the support: of himself and his family, if he haye one ; or, if any person whatever shall be found spending his time in dissipation, or gambling, or saun- tering about without employment, or en- dea\ oring to maintain himself. or his family by any, undue or unlawfnl means, such person shall-be deemed a vagrant and guilty of a misdemeanor, And it shall be the daty of any justice of the peace of the county wherein sach pers sons shall bé found, upon due proof of such Offence, to issnd a warrant for the arrest of the offender, to be brought be- fore him or some other iar of the peace, whose duty it shail be, if, on ox- amination, such person shall be found a vagrant, to recognize him wih 6 8e- curity for his appearance, at the first Court to be lield for said county. whieth- er it be a Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions or a Superior Oourt, to answer such offence.

Mr. Eldridge, of Wisconsin, said he trusted the gentleman from Iowa would no! press & subject of auch importance 'o a vote under the operation of the pre- vions qnestion, thus striking off all op- portunity for discussing the matter. The Message bad been treated in this man- ner by the Sunate, and he trastelit would not be treated so here. It would bea disgrace tothe House if the bill was hurried to 4 vote without any chance being yiven fora discussion of ite wer ita. M-, Wilson replied, that it was for the Ifouse to decide whether immediate ac- tion on the bill would disgrace it or not. Por his part, he thought that the bill had been very freely discussed already, and he intended in any event to demand the previons question afterthe morning hour on Monday. The House might sustain him or not as it thought proper. [Laugh- ter from the Republican eide.) CIRCULAR FROM PRESIDENT JOHNSON. Washington, April 8. The President has just issued the fol- lowing circular to heads of departments in reference to appointments to office : It is eminently right and proper that the Government of the United States should yive earnest and substantial evis deuce of its just appreciation of the ser- vices of the patriotic meu, who, when tite life of the nation was imperilled, en- tered the army and navy, to preserve the integrity of the Union, defend the Gov- ernment, and maintain ahd perpetuate unimpaired its free institations. Itis therefore directed— : First, That in an appointment to office in the several executive devartments of the General Government, and the vari- ous branches of tae publie service -con- nected with said departments, ~prefer- ence shall be given to such meritorious and honorably discharged suldiers and sailors, particularly those who have been disabled by wounds received of disvase contracted - in the dine of duty, as may possess the proper qualifications. Second, That in all promotions in said Departments and the several branches of tne pablic service counected there- with, such persons shall have preference, when equally eligible and qualified, over those who have not: faithfully and honorably served in the land or naval service of the United States.

These daye a twelve month ago were the-scenes of the greatest calamity that ever befel our city.” Onur hills and val- leys, for the first time in the memory of the-oldest citizen, resonnded the echoes éhelle. At-day-break on the morning of the twelfth eer citizens were aroused from their-quiet slumbers by the loud detona- ed encommanding positions around the Rl-stated city. foeman was slowly tut surely advancing. All was,excite- ment, all was terror. Terror stricken wouter and weeping children were run- ning from house to house, or secreting themselves if cellars. The conflict was short. The small companies of invalid soldiers hastily gathered from tbe. hospitals -and thrown out with a battalion of artillery were uo- equal to the five thousand well trained ar.d weil armed troopers lead by Stone- man. They were soon pressed back, and our city given up to plonder and destruc- tion. Then -came the hour of sadness and snspense. , The van guard of Stone- man’s forces had chased every resident from the streets. Not a citizen was to be seen—every door was closed, and the in- mates were in momentary expectation of ademand to render up their houses to the flames. Stoneman had arrived—hie prisoners were quartered at the old Gar- rison, and the work of destraction com- menced. Thousands npon thousands of dollars worth of OCommiesary, and Qnar~ termaster’s stores, shipped here from Raleigh, were indiscfiminately thrown to whoever would take them—whites, ne- groes and prostitates, until all were sat- isGed. The remainder was piled in the streete and burned. But the victors had not yet completed their work of distruc- tion, The Old Garrison, buildings and hos- pitals, the foundry and machine shops, the extensive d sheds and <= of the Central and the Western 8, attached, and several other buildings were Coinmitted to the flames.

We refer them to the President's veto, published last week, for the provisions of this bill; which aecotd- ing to his review of it, and indeed in the opinion of every body else, pt the radicals th Ives, itis unconstitutional in many of its provisions, and in- volves tbe most fearful changes in the character of our political system. Ifcarried into execution the radicals have aleady accomplished a revolution in the Goverament, by which the black people of the country are made not only the equalsofthe white, but superior to them in the matter of civil pigtection; and by which the office of President, which was designed to be only Executive, becomes despotic. We will see what we shallsee, and that soon, as to the etfect of these startling proceedings. It is yet undecided whether or not the people of the North- ern States will sustain the President and his policy for the re-construction ofthe Union. If they should decide to do so then thereis hope. If, on the contra- ‘ry, they should decide to sustain the radical Con- gress, thea a gloom will settle upon the future pros- pects of this country as dark and hopeless to the liberties of the people as the fell spirit of the evil men in power can make it. Itis but too manifest that they are aiming to usurp the whole power of the Government, aud when they shall have doue so, they will coolly proceed to fortity themselvesin its perpetual possession, and to this eud ancient usuages and sacred ovastitutional barriers will all have to yield to the one great object. We of the South can do nothing but stand at a distaace and look upon these proceedings We bave been excluded fro:m the National councils for no other reason than that its radical members might forge without opposition, the chains which they design to fasten upon us. Under God him- selt, we have no hope except in the hervic Presi dent and the feeble remains of conservatisin in the Northern States. Of these He may create a power which shall withstand the wicked radicals, and for this we can only hope and pray. ——00 Tue Caovera 13 Comine.—Filth is the great co- operative agent for the spread of this terrible dis- ease.

H. Brirtatx, Esq., or some other editor of a.daily paper down there, got to calling Charlotte a “city;” and kept it up without opposition (upon the principle that people usually accept compliments however undeserved) until the public ear became accustomed to it, and people ceased to laugh, and the thing was did for Char- lotte! Then certain envious ones in Salisbury, began to say, well, if Charlotte is a city why is not Salisbury, also? She hasas many or more people, as many or more buildings, and as many or more streets. Then in the Spring of last year there came in with the Federal ermy to this place, one Lt. Du- RAN, who had been the local editor of the Louisville Journal, and perhaps of other papers in Ohio ;—a rollicking, gasconding sort of fellow, who was put tn as associate editor of the daily “Banner,” and he fell to writing Salisbury a “city.” Every paper is- sued had something to relate of things said or done in “this city;” and the successors of the facetious Lieutenant kept it up, untiljas it seems, they have made the Legislature bestow a lar christening. It is true that some of our older citizens, who never allowed tiemselves to think that Salisbury could ever be more than a good sized town, are yet rather disposed to sneer at the idea of borane theta OF) but they will soou pass away, or give in, and’ then there will be none—bat oulsiders—to question her title to the Te oe aceed G oeiacn ee jot governed we ned or a ra but rather subject to te fanetes of the pocein, wt doubt vot from t that our town will heregfter be @ city.

' The President appreciates the evils threatened by the of this bill. He bas set forth his objec- fieos with an emphasis that demonstrates an un- qualified and irrevocable hostility to the measures thes proposed. He has shown that he is conscious @f the pernicious sting pyar! the execution of sack an act, and should he be called upon to exe- cute it, he must do so ia defiance of his covictions of its unconstitutionality and of results that he knows will be prejudicial to the interests of the people and dangerous to the safety of the political system. Under these circumstances can he consei- é:tiously exercise the executive authority in carry- ing out the provisious of the bill? It will beclaim- ed by the ieals that he has no choice; that in the regular fulfilment of his official functions be must execute the laws passed by the National Leg- islature. But what if he should consider that the assemblage that passed the Civil Rights bill did not constitute, constitutionally, a National Legislature? Is the Executive bound to execute the will of an assemblage of usurpers, or to carry out the uncon- stitntional measures of an unconstitutional legisla- tive body? If Mr. Johnsoag is convinced that the Federal Congress is not complete, that tlfcre is some defect in its essence that renders it incapable of legislating in accordance with the provisions of ‘he Constitution, and especially if he is aware that defect has been wilfully created by the wrong'‘and usurpation of those who claim to constitute that Congress, it is not his duty to execute the laws pass- ed by those pretenders of the functions of national legislations, If the representatives of Massachn- setts shoul] take pessession of the Capitol, exclude the representatives of other States, and pags laws for the government of the whole country, the Pres- ident woald certainly be jnstified in refusiny to sanc- tion the proceedings of such a Oongress. The case isnot changed in principle from the fact that the representatives of other States have leagued with those of Massachusetts to usurp this monopoly of legislation. Eleven States and some millions of American citizens were illegally held {rom represen- taion when the Civil Rights bill was passed. If thuse States and those Awerican citizens could be present by representation, as they have the right to be, in the national council, the Civil Rights bill could not be passed overthe|President’s veto. That, hve presame will be admittéd by al ‘partied! Te fs therefore, by keeping the Bouthern States out df Congress that the Radicals have a oumerical supe’ riority sufficient to defy the Executive veto. The Constitution does not sanction such a trick as that, and, shoud it prevail the very soul of our republi- canism will have passed away. Andrew Johnson is as much the President of the Southern States as of those fhat are represented tt Congress. It ishis duty‘ts protect thetights df all the States aud of ‘elf thie people withdut fégard to geographical, partisan, or social distinetions. If he cannot compel the Radicals to admit the excluded members to their seats in the Capitol, he can at least refuse to be an instrument to carry ont the scheines of the usurpers. Dothe men who assem- ble in the Federal Senate chamber, and Hall of Representatives, compcse a Congress of the United Stetesin accordance with the letter and spirit of thé Constitution? They do not. They lack es- sential attributes of complete Congressional exis- tence. Ifthe President will consent to be a tool of a faction, let him execute the unconstitutional laws of those legisiative monopolists. Bur, if he is Pres- ident of the United States, he need not fear to tram ple apon the edicts of the demagogues who are go- ing through the show aad mockery of legislation at Washington. oe Tt would be well for all to remember that the Stay Law passed by our Legislature does not ap- ply to anv debt contracted since the first day of May 1865.

We are informed on the authority of one of the Washington correspondents of the revolutionary press that Judge Underwood, of Virginia, a ao place-buuter and standing candidate for the Virginia Sena- torship, bas lately made what is called an important decision in Virginia; his conelu- sion being that the rebellion still exists, the habeas corpus has not been restored in any of the Southern States, and martial | law is still supreme. This effort of Dog- | berry wisdom was developed in the case of aman named Thomas Javin, of Alexan- dria, who, for an ordinary assault upon one of the favored descendants of Ham, was fined by an impartial Provost Marshal the extravagant sum of $500, and sentenced to imprisonment until it should be paid. An application for a writ of habeas cor- pus was made by the counsel of Javin, under the supposed assurance of protection of the late peace proclamation. oner was brought before Judge Underwood under the writ, which was returned by the officers of General Augur étating ail the facts of the case, and adding that he had been held under military authority by or- der of the President of the United States —all of which was duly certified on the back of the writ. The hearing consumed six hours, after which Judge ialervood decided in substance that the peace proc- lamation did not apply to such cases, and remanded the prisoner to custody. He held that the proclamation, in excepting Texas, practically declared that the rebel- lion continued to exist. As long, there- fore, as ‘Texas was excepted, the writ could not apply to such cases as that of Javin, even if the proclamation was legal. We clip the foregoing from the Baltimore Transcript for the purpose of making some comments. What the consequences of the he pris- | C, ns ner ocean * Wuirped.—Reubea MeDowd, -® negro, was tried this morning before J Fowle, ae charge of stealing a pair of shags from M. Raseubauin, wnd the fury found him guil- ty. His puvighmeut was agsessed at thirty- | nive lashes on the bare hadk, which was oy adiniuistered by the sheriff."—Raleigh, (N. CU.) Progress, April 3, Tn view of such ocourrences as these-—quite common in the South—we think the civil rights bill has not beeome a law a day too souu. A gentleman who was present and witnessed the executian.of the above sentence writes a friend in this elty that it was “the most horrible thing I ever saw.—The negro was made to take off all his clothes. The sheriff then touk a cowhide and gave bim thirty-nine lashes, bringing the blood every time, and using up two-cowhines. I saw another whipped to-day. I understand that they are going to eut the dar off one to-mur- row, which is another way they have of pun- ishing here.” It is time that American civil- ization was thoroughly purged of these relics of barbarisin. Certain sections of the civil rights bill, if applied to the judge who pro- nounced this sentence and the sheriff who ex- ecuted it, would have @ salutary effect upon both. No stronger argument could be addue- ed to provewthe necessity of this measure than the occurrence related above.— Washington hrdnicle. The law of this State provides that all gil ince our civil sag 4 their operations, persons colors have been whipped for stealing. The law makes no distinction. If Reuben McDowd had been a white man he would have been punished in the same way. This has been a custom with our people for many generations, and if this genera- tion be a barbarous one, so was that to which William Gaston and Nathaniel Ma- con belonged. We believe that when a person, black or white, is guilty of steal- ing, he deserves to be whipped for it; and that a person who wilfully and wickedly commits murder, ought to be hanged. But the people of our State have no choice in this respect. They have no penitentiary or houses of correction, and they must ei- ther whip thieves or turn them loose on licly whipped, when convicted of the erime A ai late peace proclamation of the President would be, we thought was too clear to ad- mit of any doubt. The Constitution of the United States provides that “the writ | of hobeas corpus shall never be suspended, except when in cases of insurrection or invasion the public safety may require it.” An insurrection had existed in eleven states for more than four years, but the President in his recent proclamation declares that the insurrection in ten of those States is at an end. Certainly no portion of the country is now invaded. ‘Then surely the writ of habeas corpus is reatored in the ten Sfates da which the insurrection is declared to be atanend. This is a logical sequence of the President’s proclamation. It was not necessary for him to say in so many words, “the writ of habeas corpus is hereby re- stored in aaid States.” The proclamation was made by cOmpetent authority, and it establishes the fact that in the ten States referred to, the contingencies upon which alone the writ of habeas corpus can be sus- pended have ceased to exist, and having ceased to exist, the writ is necessarily re- stored, But Judge Underwood has made the wondertul discovery that because Texas was not mentioned in the proclamation, that therefore the rebellion continues to ex- ist in Virginia. Strange logic this; we cannot comprehend it. In Texas, we ad- mit that it still continues, technically, to exist, and that consequently the writ has not been restored in that State. But if the proclamation was made by competent wathority, and of this we do not entertain a doubt, the insurrection has ceased to ex- ist in the States enumerated therein, and the writ has been restored in those States; for it would be absurd to say that because the people of one State were in insurrec- tion against the government, therefore the writ of habeas corpus is suspended in eleven States where there is no insurrection. Yet this is, in effect, what this learned (7?) Judge says. We are no lawyer, and therefore it may be thought presumptuous in us to criticise the opinion of a Federal Judge; but it seems.to us-that the case is so clear that nothing but common sense is wanted to enable any man’ to understand it. Since writing the above, we see that Judge Connelly F. Trigg, of the United | this # Brita thes oF le of instances | States Circuit and District Courts in Ten- nesses, has detided in the case of General Rucker, that thé proclamation does abolish military 8' y, and that all cases of Treason hereafter go to the civil au- thorities, We presume no one. will ques- tion that Mr, Justice Trigg is at least equally competent with Judge Underwood. to decide the question. a We find the following in the Louisville Democrat, of the 24th ult ‘CHOLERA aT Key West, Fiorina.— The following is an extract from a private letter from an officer in the army, dated New Orleans, March 13. “Official news that the cholera has bro- ken out at Key West has reached us.

Onur cotemporary of the Chronicle would pun- ish the Judge who directed this colored man to be whipped, and the Sheriff for whipping him. The civil rights bill would not do that, The colored man was pun- ished just as a white man would have been, and as white men have been, recently ; and this is all the bill referred to requires. But the correspondent of the Chronicle, who has no doubt witnessed many things more “horrible” than the whipping of a miserable thief, is shocked at the report that “they are.going to cut the ear off one to-morrow.” Well the ear has not been cut off. Every body still has his ears, and some people have very long cars. True, State is cropping; but this punishment is seldom if ever inflicted. We have been living here and looking about us for more than forty years, and we have not yet seen any one with cropped ears. We learn that the colored man referred to was well whipped, as white thieves are well whipped; but the correspondent is mistaken in saying he was “made to take off all his clothes.” He was only divested of his’ shirt. - Correspondents of Northern newspapers are prone to paint the dark side of South- ern society.

There was an obscure rumor, a short while ago, that the Austrian Em- ror had written @ conciliatory and friend- 'y letter to the of Prussia; but the truth of this is denied in the latest intelli- gence from Vienna. The tone of public opinion in Berlin leans decidedly toward anticipations of the declaration of war on the part of Austria, based on the straitened finances of that wer. The threatening attitude assumed y Prussia, in the matter of her expressed determination to annex the two Duchies, which is the source of all the trouble, com- pels Austria, resolved on her part to make the occupation of the territory in dispute by Prussia a casus belli, to maintain a much larger standing army than she would oth- erwise do. The condition = eat ater exchequer will not permit a len ace: and henee it would not rs at all surprising if, at any moment, the Prussian Government should receive the Emperor's ultimathm, to abandon at once all - sions upon the Duchies or prepare for hos- tilities. By the Convention of Gastein, Holstein became subject to the authority of Aus- tof | ota; bar, wht the Prussian soy between her and the Duchies in dispute, and adjvining the latter, her hold upon Schleswig-Holstein must be considered very feeble. Austria has declared her wil- lingness to abandon the Duchies to a ruler who has the best claim to the throne; but she has not, thus far, consented, and doubt- leas will not consent, that Prussia should usurp that ruler’s right. The question of the friendship or hos- tility of the minor German States has not yet entered into the quarrel. No confer- ence upon the subject of the differences has yet been had with the German Diet, for the simple reason that the dispute be- tween the two great Powers has not yet taken a definite shape. That they will eventually be drawn into the whirlpool, in case of hostilities, is more than probable, and that they will “come ab small” in the articulating 8 (to borrow a simile from Mr. Silas Wegg’s Mend, Mr. Venus,) is also not more than possible.

When a rs gpa authority has de- clared any particular provision of a statute void by reason of apa premier ee such a decision does not avoid the whole law, nor any other part of it than that which was concerned in the case passed upon. It is true that the several provisions in most laws are so inter-dependent, one upon the other, that there is generally somewhere in the statute one which, if found to fail, renders virtually null and all the others. But this is not always the case. An ord- nance, for example, may establish a fire department, and repeal all previous laws on the subject. It may also provide a re- ligious test for membership. The latter provision would be void. But that would not affect the remainder of the statute. . 4.

A Pamily of Seven Persons Murder- ed—Particulars of the Tragedy. 11.—The most horrible ‘ % haVe occur: im this city came to light this afternoon. An entire family, cousisting of Christopher Deering, aiged 33; his wife, aged 30; Miss Kealing. a lady cousin, aged 45, and his four children, named James, aged 8; Thomas, aged 5; An- nie, aged 4, and Emma, aged 14 months, were found brutally murdered upon their premises, on Jone’s lane, near the Point House road, in the First Ward. Allthe persons named had their throats cut and their heads horribly mangled. The murder is supposed to have been committed on Saturday, as Mr. Deering as last seen on the morning of that day. Tite mother and her four children were found in one corner of the barn, covered with dirt and hay.

Sickles. It seems by the criminal code of the State, white men are liable for petit larce- ny, horse-thieving, &c., to the penalty of thirty-nine stripes laid’on the back. There is no penitentiary in the State, and the Legislature en Birgit without creating that institution, which is 80 necessary for all the purposes of civilization.

It is the intention of the Government, as we have stated, to have all these remains brought to the Arlington Cemetery for interment.— Richmond Enquirer. This action, upon the part of the Gov- ernment, is eminently proper. The gov- ernment owes a debt of gratitude to the men, who fell in the struggle to maintain its supremacy, and that consideration, to say nothing of the claims of humanity, ren- ders it becoming that their remains should be respected and honored. The same reasons appeal with equal force to the States of the South in behalf of their dead. When those States called, their sons recognized the authority and rushed to arms at the summons.

The Judge of the court of pro- bate for that county certifies to the follow- ing: ‘Of helpless, indigent, people, without any means of support, including white and colored, there are twenty-one hundred and eighty persons—women, children and in- firm men. Of persons who are able to work, but have no means to purchase sup- plies for carrying on farming operations, there are families embracing about two thousand persons white and black. Of the residue of the population, not twenty have means more than adequate to their wants, According to the census last taken, in 1860, the Pepesita of the county, white and colored, was about eleven thousand, and at this time is not probably more than nine thousand five huadeed persons.’ Smati Pox.—We are happy to be able to state, on the .uthority of Dr, R. 8, Prim- rose, city physician, that the small pox is rapidly abating in this city, and the hope and belief is that in the course of a few weeks it will have entirely disappeared.

RO ee THE Frozen WELL oF BRANDoN, VT. —The Freeman thus speaks of this re- markable well : This well has existed seven winters and six summers, Its depth is 41 feet. The water is from two and a half to three feet in depth, <A coat of ice is formed on the wall of the well the whole depth of the wa- ter. The ice becomes so (hick in winter as to render it difficult to dip up water with a common bucket, The surface of the wa- ter also freezes over every night during the winter. Ice has thus formed four inches in one night, the present winter. Tho owner is obliged to descend into the well and cut open the ice every morning in win- ter, in al draw water. As spring ad- vances, the surface of the water ceascs to freeze, but the ice remains on the well around the water, diminishing in quantity as summer advances, but does not entirely disappear, some remaining until the next winter’s freezing commences. The well yields an abundant supply of water, PR I N — Ts e , Pi p e r « 3 ie d we “of the United States taxes, to give notice ‘ THE OLD "NORTH STATE) Monday Ziveuing, April 16, 186q LEWIS HANES & J. 8S.

Madame Pozzoni has delighted | the citizens of Newbern during the past winter months, and has just concluded a | most brilliaut cugagement of fifteen nighis | in Wilmington. She will be asgisted by Mr. H. B. Coy, Baritone, and Messrs. | Worsley and Reardon, on the piano and | violin. ‘The Goldsboro’ News, referring to their concerts in that city, speaks thus: The Coneert Last Night—A Complete | Success.—The New Town Hall was filled last night to hear that brilliant lyric artiste | Madame Pozzoni, and the talented assist- | ants accompanying her. The concert | opened with a grand overture by Messrs. Worsley and Ivardon, on piano and violin, | the selection being from Lucretia, and its | execution extorted a round vi hearty ap- | plause, as did their succeeding instrumen- tation. But the great feature of the even- | ing was the vocal eflorts of Madame Poz- | zoni and Mr. Coy, who, whether in duett | or solo, exhibited not only fine mastery of | their voices, but splendid appreciation of | the spirit of the pieces rendered. We do | not hesitate to affirm that the former de- | serves to rank as a contralto of the first | stamp. ‘To a voice of sufficient compass for ordinary ballad or even ae purposes, ix joined a rounded, well modulated sweet- ness which is sufficient to invest any song with a charmed influence. Besides, her action is of that almost perfect type which is rarcly displayed by others than singers who have devoted years of unremitted study to music as a real science. Of the tenor and basso, Mr. Coy, we must speak, in terms of the highest commendation. | The whole affair was a success and attrac- ted not only the largest, but most apPre- ciative and fashionable assemblage we have seen honor any entertainment in this city. Mme. Pozzoni gives her third, and, posi- tively last ed concert this (Saturday) evening. *t none of our citizens lose the opportunity. _ + Appointments for Worth Carolina.

C BCULAR : | To THE Pubic: \ The undersigned has now ready forthe press a vol- ume, the result of the lucubrations of many years, entitled a “Short Treatise on Chronology in General, and especially on Classical Chronology 2 The work is not intended to be a chronological chart, nor yet a collection of dates and synchronistic tables. The | author's aim has been to prepare a ** Horn Book” of | Chromlogy, containing the Veading principles, laws and facts of that science. The FIRST PART treats of measuring time and ad- justing its various divisions: the SECOND of fixing | dates of historical events and arranging them in or- , der; and the THIKD, of miscellaiueous matters im- | portant to the chronologist. UNDER TBE First J)ivision are discussed the | day, the week, the month, the year aud certain cy- «used in computing the civil calendar and pre- paring the Almanac, the origin, history, nature, | character, and various sub-divisions of cach, espe- , cially among the ancients. USDER THE SECOND DIVISION the methods of as- certaining the dates or the time when they occurred: | the actual dates of some important cras whose epoc! are disputed; the most important epochs and eras which hive been employed at different times and by | different nations, including those which are still in use; and the actual dates in the most prominent | events in classical chronology. | UNDER THE THIRD AND LAST DIVISION are consid. | ered the epochs and eras of less importance; a sketch | of the chronology of India and China; the princi- | | ples of the art of mnemotechyny as arp ee to dates, | and the different systems of that art which have been propounded. The author believes that a work successfully exe- cuted upon this plan, though it may not contain very much that isnew, cannot but be useful and profitable not only to the reading public, but also to the youth of our country, in the acquisition of classical and historicat learning ; and history will be the study of thie 48°; ft thust always be the study of th 1 men In times of revolution and great political chan- | ges. such as our country is at present undergoing. | The contributions of North Carolina, and of the Southern States of the Union generally, to American literature, have heretofore been law, and for the most part. worthless. A few works of flotion and some | fugitive poems include our past efforts; and with the | excellent Latin Grammar, and the edition of Caesar's | Commentaries. prepared for the press by Col. Bing- | ham—woiks the very best of their character which | have ever failen under our observation, and which, | under more fayorabie circumstances, will yet win for their author that high reputation in his profession which he merits—our contributions to useful litera- | | ture are of the very humblest character. Under such circumstances this book is, with some confidence, pre- ‘ gented for public patronage. The author proposes to publish by subscription .— | The cost of publication will be fifteen hundred dol- lars, ormore. The book contains about two hun- dred and fifty 12 mo. pages. It will be bronght out in the best style of one of our best Americun pub- lixhers, as to type, paper and binding. The cost of single copies delivered will be $2.50. Pereons desiring to subscribe can communicate | with the undersigned at Raleigh, but subscription lista will be opened at various places of business in Raleigh and other townsin the State. Snbscriptions will be required in ¢ ash as essential to the success of the enterprise. Editors who will give this Circular a few insertions and forward a copy of their pupers containing it to the author, will be furnished with a copy of the book. the volume will be placed in the handsof the pub- lisher as soon as the author's success is at all assured and will be issued to subscribers a fewweeks there- after.

Ilenve, when we are told by the miji- tary of Georgia that the President says martial law is to continue, or informed from Washing- ton that he will soon let the military know the contrary to be the fuct, we regard neither re- port as deciding anything relative to the legal question involved. This must be passed upoo judicially before it can be settled. In the mean time we must submit to have the military over our civil authorities until the matter can be ad judicated.— Richmond Dispatch.

In 1814, after the fall of Napoleon, the Dake with his family removed to Paris, and the immense catates of his father were restored to him. - He now took up his residence at the palace at Neu- illy, where most of bis nine children were born. There bis consort devoted herself to ber mater. pal and parental duties. By the events of J aly 1830, Louis Phillippe became King of they French’; but his Queen never appears to have valued the station for any accession of dignity and importance it gave her. Indeed, it is as- seited that she was very averse to his assumin the scepire; she probably felt that bis happi- ness, if not his good name and his life, might thereby be perilled ; but when he decided to be King, ske meekly took her place by his side, sharing his troubles, without ever seeking to share Fis power. The French nation res d_her charaeter, and never imputed any of the King’s perverse folly, which led to such signal minake of policy to her influence; still the strength of her soul Was never surmised until her husband found himself in danger of losing the throne, when she endeavored to preven’ his abdication, and kneeling before him exclaimed, “It is the duty of a King to die with his people.” But when he resolved on flight her presence of mind sus- tained aod guided him, as though he had been a obild.

Pryor, of the Memphis Ar vs, has taken a ride’ over the tield of Shiloh, and contributes.many interest ing and some horrible facts to that jour- nal. He says: The whole face of the country betwéen Yorinth and Pittsburg Landing is scar- red, sctatched and wounded with: almost indelible traces of'ruthless war. Lines of earthworks and éntrenchments across all the “ thougand ‘and one” roads ; lone chimbeys, burnt and blacken trees, and heaps of-rabbish where once stood smil- ing homesteads, whole forests peeled, or “ barked,” are deadened by the encanips ing soldiery, to make themselves com- tortable with bark beds ;-dwellings, stores and outhouses in every stage of dilapida- tion and decay } fields fenceless and un- tended, are rapidly growing wild again —these are some of the evidences of the fierce struggle. | q Of the horrors.of the field he writes : The war during its progress presented many horrible aspects, but none so hor- rible ag this. [saw where hundreds of of confederate dead had been rooted out of their shallow-eoverings—I cannot call shem graves—their flesh eaten by the hogs, and their bones lying scattered and broken and trampled upon in every di- rection. It transcends anything record- ed in civilized history; it almost tran- scends belief. I was told bee of the people residing near that the hogs fed so long in this. way upon human carrion that the pork became so offensive it could not be eaten; and, to this day,’ some of the ladies informed me they dare not tonch any hog’s meat killed in that vi- cinity ; thiey felt or were afraid that they would be guilty of cannibalism to do so. In one place, about 300 yards south of the church, on the Rhea place, I saw where alarge number (supposed to be 150 at least) of confederates had been tumbled into a gully and covered up with a thin layer of dirt. The washing rains and the hogs together have exposed the boties' here mostsadly. Many of the bones are broken and shattered to pieces, evidently since they were unearthed. All the other scattered graves of the confed- erates, where they were covered up by ones, twos, threes and so on up to dozens ii a place, over the whole field, are in the came miserable condition. In but one place did I see a confederate grave that had not been rooted up by the hogs. That was on the extreme le!t, where, as Mr. Hargraves informed me there are near three hundred of each side buried in parallel trenches. Generally the fed- eral deal, as at Corinth, were buried at the proper depth, and generally with Lead and foot boards, inscribed with the names, companies, regiments, &c. Many of thyce head and foot boards, have been Jestryed or defaced by the annual fires whieh burn off the grass and leaves of those: woods, I saw but one federal bas rial trench where the hogs had upturned the bones, aud that was but slightly. — They ste genérally burried : too deep for that, and in-some places their graves are énelosed with fennces made of logs and railes' </>" oa: ; i Atthe confedérate gully.grave, and at all the. “¢orfederate’ graves—or rather, places wheré the confederate dead were slightly covered up on the ground where they. fell—skalls, thigh, hip, and leg bones, ribs, vertebraa; ete., etc.. lie scat- tered around in all *directions. In one place I saw where two confederates bad been., covered up inthe middle of the road; im another whiére, one had been pitched ento a deep tutor bole made by wagon wheels at the.roadside and ¢0 cov- éted; In still anothér 1 “saw where two confederates had béenplacéd between two standing trees and then covered up; aud instill other places they were thrown by the side of logs, as at Corinth, and only half covered up.

The Test Oath and the Supreme Court.. Washington. April 20.—The Judges of the Supreme Court whose opinions are adverse to the constitutionality of the test oath, are Messrs. Clifford, Wane. Nelson and Grier, with one doubtful. There is great complaint from the South because the court adjourned without rendering an official decision, as an immense number of cases are thereby withheld from ads judication, and lawyers, without oumber, are virtually thrown out of practice. IMPORTANT FROM FRANCE. Advices from Paris reached here by the last steamer, asserting that for “every French soldier that may retire from Mexico, ten volunteers stand ready to take his place; and touching finances, the Emperor of Mexico can have all he wants.” This isan important declaration, and comes from an unquestioned source. THE CASE OF SENATOR M'‘GOUGALL. The project looking to the expulsioa of the Sen- ator from California, for “words spoken in de bate,” has, I hear, been abandoned, the apology of that gentleman baving randered such a step unnecessary. IMPORTANT RUMOR OF A COMPROMISE. There are rumors to-day that an important proposition has been framed by the Committee on Reconstruction, which is to be offered as an amendment to the Constitution, and which, if accepted by the Executive and the South, will settle all present difficulties. and insure the re~ presentation, by loyal men, of those States in Congress. There isa further rumor that the text of this amendment has been submitted to the President, who signified his approval of it, bet this latter report should probably be taken cum grano, \Ve shall bear more of the amend- mett next week, THE MEXICAN NEWS. - The French Bureau has no intelligence of the recently rumored defeat of the Imperial forces near Mazatlan, and from the report of the nambers engaged on the French side, it is be- lieved the whole thing is little better than a hoax. THE HABEAS CORPUS CASE, The information J telegraphed you on Sunday to the effect that the habeas corpus was restored in all the States, save Texas, despite the de- spatch from the War Office %o the contrary, you will eee is confirmed by the President's action in the case of Dexter, the cotton agent at Mo- bile, and also in the case brought before Judge Underwood in. Virginia. Inu ‘each ‘of these cases, General Wood at Mobile, and Judge Un. derwoad tn Virginia, were directed by order of the Execative to respect the write of the civil courts, and these instructions will hold good on all similar occasions. qMUNICIPAL TROUBLES IN NEW ORLEANS. A pardon is ready for Mayor Monroe when he aska for it. He will receive it personally. ia a few days. The same may be said of bebalf of Colonel Nixon, of the Credeent, though there is a report that he has resigned the Alderman~ ship rather than go through the trouble of sey curing it. Neither Monroe nor Nixon are on godd terms with Governor Wells. THE TEST OATH. The report of the Judiciary Commitee, re- fusing to recommend the abolition of or change in the test oath, is said to be an able paper, and to be backed by opinions from ‘no less a person- age than the President himself.

Fourth Month, 1866. LOSES BY RELIGION. Near London there dwelt an old couple. In early life they had been poor; but the‘husband became a chris« tian, and God bless. their industry, and they were living in a comfortable retire- ment, when one day a stranger called on them to'ask their subscription to a char- ity, The old lady had less religion than her husband, and still hankered after the Sabbathing earnings and easy shillings which Thomas had forfeited from regard to'the law of God. So, when the visitor asked their contributions, she interposed and said: met “ Why, sir, we have lost a'good deal by religion since we first began; my husband knows that very well. Have we not, Thomas ? : After a solemn pause, Thomas answer- ed, “Yes, Mary, we have.

Qualified Restoration of Civit Law. RY UI8 EXCELLENOY CHAS, J. JENKINS, GOV- ERNOR OF GKORUIA, Executive Deparrwent, j Milledgeviile, Apri) 14, 1866. Pablic attention has doubtless been given to Circular No. 4, iasued on the 5th juatant, by Brig. Gen. David Tilison, A. A. Com. Burean B-fugees, Freed men, and Abandoned Cands—and ap- roved by Brevet Maj. Gen. J, M. rannon, Commanding Department of Georgia—and to General Orders No, 17 of Brevet Maj. Gen. Branuon of the same date. By these orders a large jorisdiction fn civil and criminal cases, wheretu Freed men and white persons may be parties, heretofore denied to State Cuaurts, is yields ed to them. As will appear in the sequel, this does not ainount to positive and tinal withdrawal of military authority, Ic is unquestionably a highly satisfactory ad. vance in the process of restoration to our former political -status, whieh may be followed by farther advance jn the same direction, or by ® retrograde movement As citcumstances may indicate. It has been indaced mainly by the legislature of the General Assembly relarive to the States of the Freedmen. I: will not be lost and may be tpeedily pushed further, ifthe Judiciary, in conrts of inquiry and in courts of record—the bench and the jury box, give effect to the letter and the epirit of the Jaws by them enacted.—~ In the fall assurance that my fellow cit izens, official and unc flicinl, who may be called apon to participate in the ad- ministration of justice will huld .he seales im perfect equilibrium, as between indi- vidaals and classes, I congratnlate the people of Georgia upon this exrvest of coming restorahen to interior self-gov- erpoment. In our condition, neither con scious rectitude or intention, nor noisy and @becominy professions of it, wil} avail dught.

Worth rece telegram from the Prosident, on Friday night last, with reference to the effect af the late proclamation upon the case of Maj. Gee: Wasuinaton, D. C., April 27, 1866. Zo Gov. Worth: Tam directed by the President to in- form you that by his proclamation of April 2, 1866, it was not intended to in- terfere with military Commissions at that time, or previously organized, or trials futng and approving or disapproving bor contracts, and of assisting and pr tecting, by iug such aid. Trials by strictly mi cominissions, are dispensed with e where the acensed is a soldier, or the of. fense churged, is one against the Feder- al Government. 2d. Chave high aathority for saying that “the President’s proclamation does not remove martial law, or operate in any way uponthe Freedmen’s Bureau, in the exercise of its legitimate jurisdic. tion;” thongh “it is not deemed expedi- ent fo resort to military tribunal in any case where justice can be attained throngh the medinm of civil authority.” My impression is, that in case of inil itary arresta by orders from Headqnar ters, Department of Georgia, interfer ence of State Judges by habeas corpns will be permitted. Sucli orders, I be, lieve, will be rarely if ever issued ; and I trost conflicts will be avoided. Whilst therefore by thue-commanicat- ing reliable information, I seek to guard the whole people agaiust erroneous im- pressions regarding the extent to which the General military authority is relax. ed, I respectfalty call upon the civil authorities to assnime and exercise, in perfect fairness and justice, the jurisdic: tion clearly restored to them. Calmly pursing our now ascending canrese, let oor acts illustrate our title to fuller con. fidence and higher rights.

We refer the reader to the Report of the Recon- struction Committee on the first page of this paper, and also to some opinions of the press on that re- port, given in another column. It is ‘becoming more and more plain that the day and night study the Union, but how, with some show of decency, they may keep the south out, so that oor may se- cure the next President, and Ly pray the Gov- ernment. It will be seen, alsd, the reports from Washington represent that the President and his Cabinet, with one exception, are 0 to the Report of the “ Obstruction” Cotnmittee. eg E@™ An ill-advised negro woman tested, last Sunday evening at the Methodist church, her sup ean 4 piles under’the “ civil rights bill,” to seat erself among the white peop!» Our churches are built with galleries for the accommodation of color- ed members and anenensit, sae are not less com- forfable than the seats on first floor. But dis- daining the pri appointed for her color, she dash- ed up one of the.at es to the front pew and seated herself.

It is doubtless known to most of our readers that the remains of the late Gov. Joan W. Exxis, who died in 1861, while in actual discharge of his Ex- ecutive functions as Governor of the State, were, in deferenve to the then fresh impulses of parental and brotherly grief, deposited in the family Ceme- tery, in Davidson county. But as that private burying ground bas since passed into the hands of stran it became the anxious desire of the widow, as well as of the family and intimate friends of the deceased, that his remains should be removed to the public Cemetery of Salisbury. : Rowan was the. County of his birth ; and it was in this town where he received in part his early education, preliminary to his graduation at the University of North Carolina: A Rowan constitu- ency first re‘urned him, when a youthful member of the Bar, to x seat in the Legislature of the State; and their repeated re-election of him to the same post, evine?| the high estimation in which he was held by the people of the county. Tn fine, his forensic success, bis brilliant legislative, judicial and Executive career, were attained as a citizen of slisbury. It is exceedingly fitting, therefore, that Lis earthly remains should find a resting place here, and be entombed in the neat and substantially in- closed Cemetery in this town, Profiting by the counsel and acquiescence of the Hon. Pairo Write and Lapy, (parents of the first Mrs. Ellis.) who are on a visit to their relations in this town and county, the family and friends of the deceased Governor, on Monday evening last effected a removal of his remains to a sepulture in the Salisbury Cemetery, (bes! known as the Eng- lish Grave Yard,) where, we understand, it is in- tended to erect a suitable memorial in honor of this eminent statesman and pure patriot, sToP THE THIEF, A poor distressed {reedman entered our office last Friday, and asked us to help him to recover a tall bay horse which was stolen last Tuesday, about 12 o'clock, M, from the horse-rack in the rear of Mc- # Cubbins & Foster's store. He had tracked the thief, a gray-headed white man, as far as Mocksville, throygh which he passed Tuesday evening. ' The horse is valued at $165—is about 10 years old, and may be known by a wart on the inside of the right hind foot, just where the hair and hoof join. Wm. Bariinger, the colored owner, says he will pay a liberal reward for the recovery of the horse. Send iufor mation to this office. ——- ome —— THE SIGN3 OF THE TIMES es construed from the daily passing events, fore- shadow additional troubles for the south, and, in- deed, for the whole country. But there are, also, cbeering rays of light, here and there, serving the good purpose of encourage the hearts of patriotic men to labor on for the final redemption of the Country. President Joanson still bravely stands by the Constitution, and defiantly confronts the de- structives,and mad men of the eastern and north- ern States. The conservative people of those States and of the west, are also arousing themselves to oppose them. These are the stronger rays, keeping hope alive. But they struggle through much sur- rounding gloom. The causes which brought the the Country to its present deplorable condition are yet operative ; and without the intervention of the ‘Almighty band, will surely continue the production of evil. Giving instantaneous freedom to four mil- lions of Africans and continuing them in the pre- sence of their former masters; may be followed by such other acts as to excite fatal antaganism be- tween them. Freedom alone has not satisfied those who sought it for them; nor can any one suggest a limit to the desires which has been thus.stupend- ously gratified. They all lean one way for the pré- sent. The madest fanaticism knows the value of proofs, and never fails to seek and parade them in vindication of itself and condemnation of resistants. If not ready to band they thust be made, and thus it grows by what it feeds pe e ‘e know of none here who are unwilling to con- cede to the blacks all the just rights to which the are éntitled ; nor of any who harbor ill-will towards them. On the contrary, the former masters and mistresses of the emancipated cherish a kindly feel- ing toward them, which often manifests itself in the conferring of benefits no one else would grant. A patural sympathy, springing from former relations, is the foundation of mutual good will. This, it is true, bas been disturbed in many cases; but asa thing it yet remains, and if the parties were t alone, under the operation of wise laws, it would romote the welfare and happiness of both. But it seems this may not be, tsiders—theorists— self-styled philaathropists—not personally concern- ed in the results of their efforts to elevate the dark race, still persist in their interference without the least regard to the consequences as affecting the white. Their-zeal has eaten them up, and destroy- ed the natural sympathy of race; and their hatred of us is intensified by their own enormous wrongs, just as a robber would destroy his victim, lest he should meet him again when not desired, For years we have gaid to these “let us alone.” Bat have heeded us not, and never will until God return to their own lips the eup of woes they press to ours. : We have been led into these reflections by seeing numerous accounts in our exchanges of co between whites-and blacks in different parts of the Country, north and south. The action of the pre- sent Congress has been 20 exclusively devoted to the that it was obliged to penetrated his skull and make him think himself lord of the land. They have construed the civil rights bill as a broad license to do just what they please, and hence com- mit improprieties and violations of law which bripg them into conflicts and troubles. There have been two or three instances of out-breaks of a nature to excite serious alarms for the of the country, of the Radicals is not how they mey reconstruct | - as wns {G3™ The poetical communication to hand Tuesday, from up the Weetera Road, would do the author no credit as a writer, and we therefore suppress it. . —————— PLAN OFTHE OBSTRUCTION COM- MITTEE. The following extracts from leading editorials wilY show bow the report of the Committee of Fifteen is regarded by the princidal Northern papers : (Brom the National Intelligencer.) Mr. Stevens, or the star-chamber ca- bal, having at last heard, or deigued to heed, the thunder tones of numerous Republicav presees for a development of his orits policy, Las, after a monstrous incubation of five weary months, hatch- ed its egg for propa@yating its heartless species, but has not, unlike some of the unreasoning of God’s creation, tho grace to shuffie'off its mortal coil. It lives to plague, torment, and oppress the people; toharrow up the enmities of the past, not only by recounting scenes of blood and war, which the brave men who crossed the murderous steel upon trick~ en battle fields, reeking with slanghter, would fain forget, aa they mutually for- ive each other, but by legislation which, ia blasting the political rights of the Southern people, may whelin republican institutions and the common weal ina seu of strife, anarchy, and des.ruction. The people have asked of Mr. Stevens bread. He has given them a etone.— They asked for meat. lle has given them aeerpent. The President, speak - ing for all the people who elected him, of whom he ia the representative, to whom he is responsible, and whose cor- rective power he now invokes, has de- sired that, asthe final measure of his re- storation policy, initiated in a large part by his famed predecessor, aud approved by all the Union Governors, loyal rep- rosentatives from the South should be ad- mitted into the present Congress. Public opinion, after all the epposition that has been since develope |, has aluost anaul mously called for admitting the quite large number fiom severa Southern States who could take the test-oath, and inany of the most Radical journals have so strongly insisted upon the admission of the representatives from Tennessee, that at ube time the latter result was ful ly anticipated, it being announced with a flonriah that Mr. Colfax was so deeid: edly for it that he would “take the flour” to effect the object. We have the report at last. Does it abate anything cf the worst features of that fanatical hate that has developed it- aelf throughout the session, like the up- pents? On the contrary, it combines the worst forms of a persecuting and ip: tive tyranny. (From the Times (noderate) Repub! F Asa plan of pacification and recon- structign, the whole thing is woree than a burle@®jue. It might be styled a farce, were the country vot in the midst of a very serious drama. Its proper designa- tion would be “A plan to prolong indeti nitely the exclusion of tle South frum Congress, by imposing conditions to which the Southern people will never submit.” This being the obvious scope and tendency of the proposition, we are bound to assume that it clearly reflects the settled parpese of the Committee. Sv that the Joint Committee appointed near. ly tive months ago to take exclusive charge of the question of reconstruction now offer, as the result of all their labor, what would in fact render reconstruction forever impossible. From the Tiibune (Radical Repub i:an). Oar own preference for a much shor. ter and simpler programme is well known. Universal Amnesty—Impar- tial Suffrage—such are its conditions, and the whole of them. * * But it is not possible that all individs ual views and preferences shall be grat ified in readjusting the relations to the Union of the States lately in revolt; wherefore we entreat every Unionist is Congress to adopt the committee’s report as a basis, amending wherever that may sad pico but ‘resolved to accept and vote for it when it shall have been perfected by the action of the two Hoas- es. Make it as much better as possible, but let it by no means be defeated. Our, adversaries have too long taunted us with our inability to agree on a plao of reconstruction. Let as all now re- solve that we can and shall agree. From the. World (Democratic) We will not, at present, discuse it as if the project it presents were an honest project, offered in guod faith, and really intended to expedite the restoration of the unrepresented States. A discussion on that ower courteous hypothesis may be in ordef soon, ond will et even step withthe action of Congress on the re- port. Meanwhile, we deem it more per- linent to demonstrate that it is not an honest project; that the plan embodied in the report hae no tendency, and is put forward by its authors with.no intention, to restore the States to their norinal Fed- eral relations. From the News (Democratic) The proposed Constitutional Amends mentis intended to deprive the South ern people of participation in the next Presidential election. A project so bold, so wicked, 80 fatal to the existence of our republican institutions, will, woe trost, startle the people into energetic action against the intrigaes of the anserupa- lons faction that are conspiring to overs and filing portions of it with gloomy apprehensions. If the negro led the wisdom to rhb the results of his conduct he would be more cautious. His best lriends are those he knows best, and the closer he sticks to them the better. And so, too, should southern men practice more than.usual forbearance, leading, rather than driving, these feeble-mipded but passionste people, in the ways of public and private gictuc. throw the faudamentals of the Republic. From the Herald (aondescript.) The main purpose of thie plan is evi: dently the continued exclusion of those States till after the next Presidential election, with the requsition of negro suf- fenge of the’ exclusion of the negroes rising and hissing crests of anest of ser-) {rom the enumeration of the ‘people tor representation in er poo w 4 The plan is ingeniously ‘contrived 5 it is considerably milder than anything bere- tofore emanating from the cnagartian Bes policy and the views of Pre- nearer the sident Johneon. It may be unnecessary in some things, soperfiuons in others, and unfair in its coutinved exclusion of the Southern States, after having, on their part, fulfilled the conditions of the ad- ministration charged with discretionary powers over the whole subject ; bat we bave only now to await the iesue before the two Houses. Correspondence of the Baltimore Gan, Wasswroton, May 1.—The bearing of the new republican project of reconstrac- tion upon the next presidential election will be regarded with much interest by all parties. Should the President’s plan of restoration prevail, the eleven Sou ern States would be represented by loyel men at once, and these States would be in fall participation with ether States of ail rights as membera of the Union. But these States, it is contended by the re- publicans, would, with the aid of one or two semi-rebel States, (as they choose to term them,) and of certain Northern States which are always ready to be de moralized, give a majority of electoral votes for a candidate who would be nom- inated in opposition to the candidate ot the republican party. Congress will, therefore, persist in mea- sures to defeat this combination.. The eleven Southern States are in the Union for some purposes and are acknowledged to be so by two or three branches of the federal government. These States may, and Aiobauly will choose presidential electors, according to the provisions of the existing constitution. When the votea are counted, it will belong to the President pro tem, of the Senate to count such votes as he pleases, and declare the result. {le would either act with his party or not. In either way, if the result | would be affected by his decision, a po- litical crisis would arise.

Since my circular of the 14th of Apni, my opinion hus been asked on various pints, and my answers ia substance are cuatained io the following synopsis. ‘To secure unifurinity in the execution of the law, the answers are sent to each county. I will be pleased to receive communications from may source in regard to difficulties presented by the Revenue Act. Very respectfully, KEMP. 2. BATTLE, Pablic Treasurer. SCHEDULE A. 7 = pout Tax. 1. The word “ person” in section 2, schedule A, includes corporations, which are “ attificial persons.” Therefore all Rai!road companies (whetber exempt fromm taxation by their char (ers or not) and other corporations must list their employees subject to poll tax aud pay the tax, which may be retained out of the wages of the empioyees. 2. A puts B in a house on A’s plantation without any definite lease. They work together aod B gets a part of the crop. A is liable for B’s tax. If A refuses to list bim, the list taker must notify the Sheriff, who will inform the So- livitor of the Circuit. Of course B is liable for the tax also, aud A can collect out of hin. MONEY INVESTED. 3. The interest on State bonds issued before 23d of February, 1861, is not taxable as such After it is cullected the proceeds are taxed as “ Income.” : 4. A citizen of N.C. dies, leaving a will— citizen of New Jersey takes out letters of admin istration with the will annexed. Bonds, &c., due the estate froin public and private debtors in New Jersey, are not subject to taxation in this State. ; 5. If A owes B $1000, but is only able o pay $500, B must list $500 as a solvént debt. The proper question for the tax payer is, “sup- my debtor to propose & compromise, what would I take for my claim?” The value thus fixed is liable to taxation. If the credit is good now, gloomy fears as to the future conditions of the Bate, because of the results of emancipation or apprehended hostile measures by the major- ity of Congress, or other similar conjectures, are not sufficient to warrant such credit being re- turned as insolvent. SALARIES. . 5. The salary of a minister of the gospel re— ceived for his ministerial duties is exempt, but if a minister engages in secular busines, reveiv- ing a salary in such business, this salary is: pot exempt. 7. The salary tax is only on sctunl receipts in money or money’s worth. If $1,500 wasjprom ised and only $300 received, in muney of mo- ney’s worth, in the year preceding 1st April 1866, the recipient lists nothing. The residue of the salary, if received, will be listed in 1867. INCOME. 8. Income derived from property invested in another State by a citizen of this State must be listed. (See No. 3, No. 12.) SCHEDULE B. BROKERS. 9. The Revenue act, in so far as it is retro- spective, is not unconstitutional. It is not an ex post facto \aw ; an ex post facto being defined to be a retro-active law of a criminal nature. 10. Section 8, Schedule B, was intended to apply to those agents who make it a business (not exclusive, but in the nature of a regular business) to deal for brokers. A person acting unwittingly for a broker, or making & single purchase or insignificant oumber of purebases, in ignorance of the law, might conscientiously decline to pay the tax. De minimis non curat lex, Thi#xposition is perhaps more favorable to the agent thao the words of the law admit, bat it is believed to be the spirit. PATENT MEDICINES, 11. Under Sec. 24, Schedule B, Revenue Act, ifA via) Boer medicines to B, and L sells the same to C, both A and B pay the ten per cent th-|ravian church, used together with the profits on the sales, and so on; each seller must pay ten per eent. . ' ITINERANT BOOK SELLERS. of others, from county. to — peddlers or a bot profits. to $500, must be listed as “ ineume.” PEDDLERS. 13. If a merchant opens 4 store in a tows, bona fide intending to adopt it as a permanent location, he is not to be deemed 9s a peddler under’ proviso (2) se6. 27 of the Revenue ‘act, even if, from disappointment in his expectations he shortly removes his goods, If the merebant Store with the intent to remove bis goods, which inteat is carried into effect when the first rush of business is uver, and whea be thinks he can sell more réadily elsewhere, he is deemed a peddier. The Sberiff must decide each case according to the facts. EXEMPTIONS. 14. The land and other property of the Mo thereof for the propagation of the gospel, are exempt from taxation. “15, Teachers of Schools and Seminaries must pay tax on their private property. The Princi~ pal of an Academy living io bis own dwelling house apart from the Academy must pay tax on bis dwelling house, notwitstauding he has mu sic scholars who recite their lessons therein. STAMPS. 16. Sheriffs are not bound to stamp receipts gives to tax payers, because they are official pa- pers isaued in bebalf of the State. ——ene Another Important Order. Washington, May 2—An order has just been is- sued from the war department by direction of the President declaring that military commissions and courts martial are not authorized, and therefore will not assume jurisdiction for the trial of persons other than those belonging to the army and navy of the United States, camp followers, contractors and such others ns are indicated in the articles of war aud acts of congress.” ———0 More Bloody Work.

Mr. ‘Trumbull presented a petition of 146 citizens of Staunton, Virginia, representing that the troops | having recently been withdrawh from that place, Union inen are being persecuted by the rebels, and praying that the troops should be returned for the| p loyal citizens Referred to Military yn read a portion of a letter from Gen- eral Hampton on the subject of the baraing of Columbia, South Cee Hampton controverts the stateme -otly published by General Sherman that Columbia was burned by his (Hampton's) orders, He asks for the appointment of a special committee of Congress to investigate the subject. He says bis State is debarred from representation and has no one to impose the taxes which she is called upon to pay—none to vindicate her or her sons from misrepresentations, injustice and stander, and asks Mr. Johnson to see that jus- tice be done in this matter, though the Heavens fall. Sherman said he could not allow this charge of this most impudent letter against the whole ar- my to be entered upon the record without some answer. The charge of General Sherman, in rela- tion to the burning of Columbia, was in an official report, and was fully sustained by reports of other officers. Sherman did not charge that Hampton gave an explicit order on that subject, but simply (hat. his previous order in relation to the burning of cotton, &c., caused that result, Sherman read from the various official reports to confirm the charge against General Hampton. . —o—_—_——- From Washington. Washington, May 1—It is understood that at the meeting of the Cabinet to-day the President invited an expression of opinion from the Heads of the De- partments ting the recent report of the Re- constrncticn Committee, and it is reported that in an animated discussion which ensued thereupon, Secretaries Seward, McCulloch, Welles and Stanton were decided in their opposition to the plan of the committee, and earnest in their support of the Pre- sident’s policy for restoration. Postmaster-General Dennison was in favor of carrying out the Presi- dent's policy, but expressed some doubts as to the precise time at which loyal representatives from the Southorn States should be admitted. <dttorney- General Speed was not present. The President was emphatic in his opposition to the committee's report, and declared himself against all conditions precedent to the admission of ‘loyal representatives from the Southern States io the shape of amendments to the Constitution and the passage of laws. _ He insisted that, under the Con- 12, Persons alling books, maya dc wa agen |i r pot pay a8)” nee would try euberressnenis will be surasounted: ey pnp cte epee onanerraeh fe ot 000 bles Midaling Uplaod octal ot |S vance of yas7t; Five- twenties 7038704 Defeat of the Imperiatite iso Bombarded datey to the 23d On the 12th of Apall, by ets Rev.

The tender was refused and payment demanded in silver and gold dollars, as specified in the charter party, which was refused. The action was tried by a referee, who found the tendcr of the United States legal tender, the market value thereof was thir- ty-three and one-eighth per ccnt less than that of gold or silver dollars. By an arrangement between the parties the plaintiffs credited the defendants with the market value of the amount tendered, leaving a balance of $7,684 57 due.

Con- gress, by the Jegal tender act, has made a a dollar equivalent of a gold or silver ollar. Having the power to establishand regulate the value of coin, it bas depreeiat- ed the value of gold and silver coin, for every purpose cognizable by: courts, to the level of ee “money, and’ Kas declared that one of its notea, representing the val- ue of one hundred “cents, shall be equal to a gold or silver dollar, representing , the value of the same number of cents. The power is not confined to paper mohey.— Any other substance might be made the medium of exchange declared tawfal money. The uncoined and unstamped bits of sil- vers of the ancients, which were weighed out, and not counted, and. the wampum of the Indians, were money., Money is the mere representative or supposed represen- tative of definite value.

From the views which I have here expressed it follows, necessarily, it seems to me, that a contract which crea- ted a debt, which debt can be paid with money, can ‘be satisfied by any money which is a legal tender at the time the debt is to be paid, and can be satisfied in no other way. Indeed I do not see howa contract can be framed by which a: party to it could be compelled to pay money in silver or gold, when some other substance is made by law sufficient to satisfy the | us to see what was intended to be decided; | debt.

Two nisi prius cases in the Supreme Court of this dia- trict were also referred to (Chapin vs. Pretzfelder, Prouty vs. Potter) and one case at Special Term, (Lubing vs. Atlan- tic Mutual Insurance Company, 3 How. Pr. R. 69.) The first two cases do not seem to have been much considered, and the report of them is ‘oo meagre to enable | judgment in the common pleas court. The company appealed to the Supreme Court, which tribunal has just affirmed the decis- ion of the lower court, with two per cent. damages. MAGGIBL’S FEVER AND AGUE CURE. Dr. J.

Hence, at different pe- riods, Congress has designated what should be legal tender. In 1792they established a mint for the eoining of gold and silver, which, by the same act, was made lawful money for the payment of all debts. In 1793 they made certain foreign coin a legal tender, and from time to time have regu- dated the value of foreign and domestic coin. , se acts have never been ques- tioned ; yet the power to pass them is not they can be sustained only upon an im- by Jaw does not change wit 7 myYtations of trade and commerce.

It is also supposed that upon a contract to pay a sum of money in gold a recovery may be had for the value of gold, as as- certained by comparison with pee mon- ey. But the ditheulty with the sugges- tion is, that it does not recognize or admit the distinction which exists between gold as a commodity of traffic and gold used as money. A contract to deliver one thous- and dollars of gold is a very diffcrent con- tract from ont to pay such sum in gold.— The former .can be’ specifically enforced, and the other can ‘be satisfied-by ‘gold or its equivalent.

The Undersigned, Themselves Members of the Sabbath School. propose to commence in the city of Raleigh, on or about the lst of next May, “THE SUNDAY SCHOOL BANNER.” And in the commencement of this little work of love, being boys, ourselves, may, we not appeal to every Sunday School boy, and girl in North Carolina to come up romptly to aid the undertaking. In ourown Pate there are very many Sabbath Schools, and from the best information we have, the scholarship is large and increasing, and it is from them we look for that patronage whieh is necessary to improve and keep floating, this native stan- dard which we propose for their benefit. It is not for unlary gain that the “BANNER,” is established ; it has for its aim higher ob- jects, and if we succeed in our éntérprise, it eu bets us in after life a douree of great sat- isfaction to know that, in eur boyhood days, we gave a helping hand to Sunday Schools, the preparatory: Schools for places of high trust and position, in the work of our Heaven- ly Father. Its name sufficiently indicates the object which isto control its editorial conduct. There is necessity however for the remark that it will not be denominational, but alike open to all the Sabbath Schools of this State for eon- tributions, in which there is no spice of seeta- rianism. The ‘‘BANNER” will be issued monthly on handsome type, clear white paper and will contain fourteen columns reading matter, quar- to length. We trust sufficient eerno hem may be offered to justify the undertaking.

To THE PvBLIC: The undersigned has now ready for the press a vol- ume, the result of the Icubrations of many years, entitled a ‘Short Treatise on Chronology in General, and especially on Classical Chronology.” The work is not intended to be a chronological chart, nor yet a collection of dates and synchronistic tables. The author's aim has been to re a * Horn Book” of Chronology, containing the leading principles, laws and facts of that science. The FIRST PART treats of measuring time and ad- justing its various divisions; the skcOND of fixing dates of historical events and arranging them in or- der; and the THIRD, of miscellaneous matters im- portant to the eyronologi: Uxper THE First Division are discussed the day, the week, the month, the year and certain cy- cles used in computing the civil calendar and pre- paring the Almanac; the origin, history, nature, character, and various sub-divisions of each, espe- cially among the ancients. UNDER THE SECOND DIVISION the methods of as- certaining the dates or the time when oer sores the actual dates of some important eras w e) are disputed; the most important epochs and eras which have been e1 at different times and by different nations, including those which are still in use; and the actual dates in the most prominent events in classical chronology. UNDER THE THIRD AND LAST DIVISION are consid- ered the epochs and eras of lesa importance ; & sketch of the chronalers of India and China; the princi- ples of the art of mnemotechyny as a ied to dates, and the different systems of art which have been propounded. The author believes that a work successfully exe- cuted upon this plan, though it may not very much that is new, cannot but be useful and not only to the reading public, but also to uth of our country, in the acquisition of classical and historical learning ; and history will be the study of thid age; it must always be the study of thoughtful men in times of revolution and great political chan- , such as our ney is at present undergoing. The contributions of North Carolina, and of the Southern States of the Union generally, te American literature, have heretofore been law, and for the most rt, worthless. A few works of fiction and some ‘agitive poems include our past efforts; and with the excellent Latin Grammar, and the edition of Caesar's Commentaries, prepared for the press by Col. Bing- ham—works the very best of their character which have ever fallen under our observation, and which, under more favorable circumstances, will yet win for their author that high reputation in his profession which he merits—our contributions to useful litera- ture are of the very humblest character. Under such circumstances this book is, with some confidence, pre- sented for public patronage. The author proposes to publish by subscription .— The cost of publication will be fifteen hundred dol- lars, or more. The book contains about two han- dred and fifty 12 mo. pages. It will be brought out in the best style of one of our best American pub- lishers, as to type, paper and binding. The cost of single copies delivered will be $2.50. Pereons desiring to subscribe can communicate with the undersigned at Raleigh, but subscription beudly sworn to and his signature authen- ticated. 8.

THE GOVERNMENT. “We are for the Government—that i, the President, the Congress, and .the Sy- preme Court.” So says one of our exchanges, and we confess that we scarcely know in what sense the language is used. Is it an effort 80 to trim between contending factions as to enable the party using it to claim to have been all the time in favor of the one whieh triumphs, let that be which it may. The President and Congress differ radical- ly from each other in their views, and it is simply impossible for any man to favor the policy of both. But we have some men among us whose new-born zeal for the Union leads them to abandon every thing like independence, and become fawning sycophants at the footstool of power. They will not say that they oppose the Presi- dent’s policy, nor that they are opposed to the plan of the Reconstraction Committee, They “are for the goverrment—the Presi- dent, the Congress and the Supreme Court.” By this we understand them to be in favor of President Johnson and the present Congress. Now we “are for the Government,” but by “the government” we mean the Con- stitution of the United States, and the laws made in pursuance thereof. With the administration of the government by President Johnson we are entirely satis- fied. We “are for the Congress,” but to the policy and some of the acts of the present Congress we are opposed, and we don’t hesitate to say so. If we were not opposed to some of the acts, and to the restoration policy of Congress, we would be unable to say that we were the warm supporter of the President's policy. We, as well as the President, are in favor of the Union under the Constitution as it is. Under that Constitution the Union has been restored by the President. The States are all now working together in har- ' mony under their own civil officers, elected by their own people. Military law has been abolisheg, the writ of habeas corpus has been restored, and the laws of the Union are now being executed throughout the whole land by the proper civil officers. One thing only is wanted to restore the old order of things—the admission of our Senators and Representatives to their seats in the Congress of the United States, That they are all equally entitled to rep- resentation since the proclamation of the President announcing that the insurrection was at an end and that peace had been re- stored, no man can doubt who understands the true principles of the Constitution. The President takes this view of the mat- ter, and is anxious for our admission at once, but “the Congress” refuses to admit us. Yet we have men among us who pro- feas to be in favor of both. We can’t un- derstand the position of these men. Congress, who happen at this time to have this matter under their control, pro- pose certain amendments to the Constitu- tion as conditions precedent to the admis- sion of our members. They admit that the ratification of three-fourths of all the States is necessary, thus admitting that the Southern States are States in the Union, and if States in the Union, no man can deny that they are entitled to representa- tion. As a free and independent citizen of the State of North Carolina and of the United States, we oppose the proposed amendments. We hope that they will never be ratified by a single State in the Union. We stand by the President. We “are for the government,” which is the Coxsrirurion. It is true that Congress, two-thirds of the members of each House concutring, can propose amendments for the consideration of the States, but none of the States are bound to ratify the pro- posed améndments unless’ they mect’ with their approbation. Asa loyal citizen of the United States and of the State of North Carolina, we feel it to be as much our duty to oppose any amendment, which does not meet with our approbation, as we would if we were a citizen.of New York, and we shall do it ag boldly and as fear- lessly as if we lived there. We shall stand by the President against the Radi- cals in the present Congress. We are for his policy, and opposed to that of Congress. But if the policy of Congress should pre- vail—as we do not believe it ever will—as a@ good citizen _we shall submit to any amendments which may be made to the Constitution in the way and manner point- ed out in that instrument, and to all laws made in purauance thereof, _—~>o—___..

The interview lasted nearly two hours, and must surely have been extremely gratifying to both. In the ‘course of a twelve months many very no- ticeable changes occur. It was on the evening of the 20th of April, 1865, that the steamer Wm. P. Clyde, from which a few hours before Jefferson Davis had been landed, slowly set sail, and while the steam and smoke issued trem ‘her engines and boilers, she moved slowly out of the har- bor. The sole passengers on the Clyde were Mrs. Davis and Clay, aud her desti- nation was Savannah, the Southern port from whieh she eame. ' For nearly a year Mrs. Davis has been refused the privilege of visiting her hus- band. ‘Ihe result of the many entreaties on her part, and those of her friends has at length eeig on the clemency of Presi- dent Johnson, and the desired boon has been finally granted. Your correspondent presumed yesterday morning at an early hour so muel ‘as to call on Mrs. Davis as she was awaiting in the sitting room of the Hygela Hotel the presence of an officer from the Fortress. Sending in my card by the colored waiter in attendance, the desired object was at once acceded to. The sitting room of the hotel has never, by any means, been noted for its comfort, or the expensiveness of its adornments.— Entering the room, and passing through the requisette etiquette oceupied but a few seconds, and the agreeable conversation with Mrs. Davis which ensued, was far more than a recompense for the courage which it required to solicit such an inter- view. The manner and conversation of Mrs. Davis was that of one perfectly at home on all subjects, and extremely y- like in all her remarks on the various top- ics of the day, which, perchance, were brought up. She had been allowed the privilege of correspondence with her hus- band, but of the exact state of health she dared not.hope. The favorable opinions formed from the oecasional correspondents of Northern papers were often dissipated by assertions perfectly ciate b and in the long time which has elapsed since she has seen her husband it has often been a mere matter of doubt, owing to the reti- cence of Mr. Davis in speaking of the sub- ject of his general fealel Of the terms of her visit ghe was not aware, but hoped it would be her privilege to remain at this place until her husband’s fate was decided. After conversing for the space of ten minutes your correspondent retired, mueh impressed with the interview. rs. Davis was accompanied by a large aoe of baggage. All of this was mov- ed inside the fort last night, and it is con- fidently presumed that she has made her home at the residence of Dr. Cooper, the Post Surgeon. Interview of se (Paris correspondent London Paper. ] A Baby Proves its Mother’s Inno- cence. A poor, pale, wan scamstress was ar- raigned for theft. She appeared at the bar with a baby of eleven or twelve months in her arms, her child. Ske went to get work one day, and stole three gold coins of 10f each. The money was missed goon after she left her employer, aud the servant was sent to her room to reclaim it. The ser- vant found her about to leave the room with the three gold coins in her hand.— She said to the servant, “I was going to carry them back to you.” Nevertheless, she was carried to the commissioner of po- lice, and he ordered her to be gent before the police court for trial. She was too poor to engage a lawyer, and when asked vy the judge what she had to say for her- self, she answered: “The day I went to my employer’s I carried my child with me. It was in my arms as it is now. I was not paying attention to it. There were several gold coins on the mantlepiece, and unknown to me it stretched out its lit- tle hand, seized the pieces, which I did not observe until I got home. I at orice put on my bohnet, aud was going back to my employer to return them, when I was ar- rested. | This is the solemn truth as I hope for Heaven’s mercy.” They could not believe this story. They upbraided the mother for her impudenee in endeavoring to palm off such a manifest lie for the truth. ‘They besought her for her own sake to retract so absurd a tale, for it could have no effect, but oblige the eourt to sentence her to a much severer punish- ment than they were disposed to inflict on one so young, and ‘evidently steeped in poverty. .These appeals roe. effect ex- cept to strengthen the poor mother’s per- tinacious adherence to her original story. As this firmness was sustained by that look of innocence which the most adroit criminal can never counterfeit, the court was at a loss to discover what decision jus- tice demanded.

It holds as States by calling them so, and giving them a vote upon a constitutional amendment. It mix- es things up in the most absurd er, and all for the sake, not of peace ang har- mony, but of controlling the idpntial canvass of 1868, The Syracuse Standard says: Al “ig it is quite certain that this ‘plan' adopted by Congress, no one, we e it, We say this in all earnestness. not believe that the inveutors of the ¢heme entertain the remotest hope of its 6 It tial gt. gh ge and peels — through Congress for use in tions, and far ne.ather vig not @ measure of ; rea agg heat than the one avowed by its authors. ‘Un- der it the Union could nevet be _ restored, for it imposes such conditions as no State Mey New ¥ k Times is unsparin e New York Times is unsparing in its ridicule and denunciation of the 5 at struction Committee’s report. en Hartford Courant, another ican, regards it as unsatisfactory to North and South. 7 The New York Tribune re; the want of courage exhibited by the rs of the bill, but urges its acceptance for want of a better. : The New York Sun says: Section three is a contemptible partisan scheme to de- feat Andrew Johnson in the next Presi- dental election, and to secure a Radical in his place. The Springfield af vce? msays: The Radieal vie of the Republican party is disappointed and dissatisfied with the Coa- gressional Committee of Reconstructios, quite as much, if not more so, than the more conservative portion of the party. It recommends that the Obstruction Commit- tee be dissolved, and each House decide for itself as to the admission of claimants. MEASURES are shortly to be inaugurated by the Government to effect the removal from Roanoke Island of a large portion of its negro population and scatter t over the districts of North Carolina, from whence they originally came. If the determina- tion and action are to be likewise adopted in reference to other localities similarly op- pressed by an undue preponderance of col- or, the most whol equence will result to both blacks and whites. ‘I'he ne- sare eminently gregarious, and this facwe in their character has been strik- ingly illustrated wherever islands and pen- insulas, with contiguous water-courses, furnish them easy subsistence from fish and oysters, without the exercise of steady labor. It is to be regretted that Mr. Calvin Pepper should have defeated the very laud- able efforts of the Government officials about Old Point to open up the everglades of Florida to the enterprise of “Africa’s dusky sons,” who now throng eve: r- tion of the Pontarale—<xsp deen fields. But Pepper did not’ want to lose his tice, and was unwilling to give u his blienta. We have never eal whetis er he has extricated himself from the little diffeulty in which Generals Mites and Terry got him or not. The “scattering process” should be lib- erally exercised by the Government wher- ever the negroes are too thick cither in town or country. To thin thém out will reduce idleness, immorality and crime.— And more than that, it will reduce disease ; for should the’ cholera leap into any of these negro pens this summer, the destruc- tion of the black sheep will be ap- ling. -They are diminishing in num- rs rapidly enough now, without the aid of a great epidemic as a stimulous to per- dition. ; The magnitude of the burden whieh the nation has taken on fts shoulders in these “wards,” is becoming ey day more alarmingly apparent. The dead weight whit Uscrs 4M now carries, in file tional debt and freédmen, is enough. to crush any gentleman of less vigor and buoyancy. But we are engaged in the experiment of showing the world how hard it Is to kill this nation, and if we do not die during the exhibition, we shall crown ourselves with much eclat.—Rich. Whig. _—_— Sr Tae New Texas Constitvtion.— The new Texas Constitution fixes the Governor's term of office at four years in- stead of two, and the salary at $4,000 in- stead of $2,000. It also gives the Legis- lature power to guarantee the bonds of railroads for the purchase of iron. The article abolishing slavery says : “Africans and their descendants shall be cuba in their rights of person and property by appropriate ‘legislation; the sige tae dete to sean and be pate tracted with; to sue and be sued, and to: acquire, hold and transmit property ; and all criminal lira against them shall be conducted in the same manner as pros- ecutions for like offences against the white race, and they shall be subject to like pen- alties.”’ The Constitution will be submitted to the people for their acceptance or rejection on the fourth Monday in June. = ———__~gp Nearly one-half of the forty-eight ne- groes who were released from jail in Wash- ington, oa condition of going to work in Louisiana, have returned to that city to in- feat their old hauots, and give the criminal court tease trouble to notice the closing up of Government offices yeaterday meee Se hour set a for bes @ Confederate dead touching endex recognition of | great bereavement will be b and the ; the land will hold in recollection the gentlemanly officers at this post.

About a hundred men were present, five-fifths of whom before the war were thrifty farmers. Of this number only. seyen reported that they had corn enough to.do them until the wheat harvest.

The Staunton Vindicator, referring to the “petition” presented by Senator Trumbull, of pretended “citizens of Staunton,” asking that federal troops be sent there for the protection of “the loyal men,” pronounces it a miserable impos- tare : That one hundred and forty-six citizens of Staunton ever signed such a petition is a falsehood, and we desire to brand it as such before our cotemporaries, by publish- ing it, give it *credence elsewhere.— “Union” men are not, and have not been persecuted by any persons here, and we unhesitatingly assert that no one in Staunton, who claims to have been a “Union” man, is in danger of or really fears any such persecution, or desires the return of troops to this place for his better protection. e believe that Mr. Tukey, Assistant Superintendent of the “ Bureau of Freedmen, Refugees, and abandoned days since, for the pu of ascertaining’ Blue pigeons ’mid carmine of berries * ‘Written for the Old North State.

This is doubtless the same petition which was originated and secretly circula- ted in the county by Wm. J. Dews, which we mentioned at the time, and heard de- nounced, as was Dews himself, by several of the “Union” men of Staunton. Its assertions are without the.shadow of truth, ann it was only intended by its origiuator to harass our people. “Tt isa misfortune of our present con- dition,” as the resolves of our Legislature expressed it, that a handful of bad men have the power to injure the whole com- munity by their interested and malicious falsehoods. Staunton has been abused, and the city of Alexandria is suffering in the same way at this time. The dogs of our society are having their day ; happily it will be a brief one, and is already nearly over. ———~oe-____ From the Charlotte Times. THE LAST MAN OF THE RE. TREATING ARMY. Leaxsvitiz, N.C., April 25, 1866. Mr. Eprror :—In your issue of the 4th of April, 1866, you have an article copied from the Petersburg Index, entiiled “The Last Man of the Retreating Amny,” rela- tive to a North Carolina soldier who was killed at Pocahontas Bridge. But the name of this gallant Soldier was not men- tioned. : ; His name was Cummings Mebane, son of the late Rev. W. N. Mebane, of Madi- son, N. C. ‘It affords me pleasure to give the par- ticulars of his heath. On the night of the retreat of Gen. Lee’s army, Preahontas Bridge was left in charge of a Lieutenant and a small body ofinfantry, with instruc- tions to burn the bridge as soon as the troops crossed. Before all the troops had crossed over the enemy had commenced ly dangerous for any one to approach it.— At this junccure volunteers were called for to fire the bridge, when young Mebane and Lindsay Wall, of Rockingham, step- ed forward and offered their services.— oung Mebane, notwithstanping the shot and shell were raking the bridge, reached its middle, and while applying the match was shot through the Andy with a grape shot. He w expired in a few moments. Although only 16 years he was cool, intrepid and aring as a veteran of fifty summers.

Confidently relying on the hearty support which we have heretofore received, we shall endeavor to render the paper more attractive both in appearance aed matter, than it has ever been, sparing neither pains nor expense in the accomplishment of this purpose. With the passing away of old things, a new spirit of activity, energy and enterprise, has been infused into every department of secular thought and business. Why should not the Church, also, partake of the progressive ad vancement!. Why should ake of ail the agencies, brought to bear with such tremen- duous furce upon the civilization of the pres- ent time, be inefficient, laggard and almost hopeless, in the working out of her own des- tiny ! Eo arouse the church to the importance and necessity of work ; of unceasing, restless, tire- less energy inthe service of her Master and Head ; this shall be our first chiefest aim. In this we need assistance. We are not alone, sufficient for these things. Our brethren must help us in every way; by contributions from theirown stores of thought and study; by zealous co-operation in a common cause, for the benefit ofall ; by extending our circulation throughout all our borders, and thus giving us the means and opportunity of performing well the work to which we have conséerated all that we have, and all we hope for on the earth.

Revenue Stumps may be used indiscrims inately upon any of the matters or things enumerated in schedule B, except proprie~ tary and playing card s!amps, for which a special use has been provided. Postage stamps cannot be used in pay- ment of the duty chargeable on instruments it is the duty of the maker of an instrus ment to affix and cancel the stamp thereon. If he neglects to du so, the party for whom it is made, may stamp it before it is used; and if used after the 30th of July, 1864, and used without a stamp, it cannot afters wards be effectually stamped. Any failure upon the part of the maker of an instru- ment to appropriat-ly stamp it, renders him liable to a penaity of two hundred dol- lars. Suits are commenced in many States by other process than writ, viZ: summons, warrants, publication, petition, &c., in which case these, as the original process, severally require stamps, Writs of seira facias are subject to stamp duty as original processes, The jurat of an affidavil, taken before a Justice of the Peace, Notary Public. o1 other officer duly authorized to take affiday vits, is held to be a certificate, and subject to a stamp duty of five cents, except when taken in suits or legal proceedings.

C:RCULAR : To THE Pvsuic: The undersigned has now ready for the press a vol- ume, the result of the lucubrations of many years, entitled a ‘Short Treatise on Chronology in General, and especially on Classical Chronology.” The work is not intended to be a chronological chart, nor yet a collection of dates and synchronistic tables. ‘Ihe author's aim has been to prepare a * Horn Book” of Chronology, containing the leading principles, laws and facts of that science. The FIRST PART treats of measuring time and ad- justing its various divisions; the seconp of fixing dates of historical events and arranging them in or- der; and the TH1KD, of miscellaneous matters im- portant to the chronologist. Unper THE First Division are discussed the day, the week, the month. the year and certain cy- cles used in computing the civil calendar and pre- paring the Almanac; the origin, history, nature, character, and various sub-divisions of each, espe- cially among the ancients. UNDER THE SECOND DIVISION the methods of as- certaining the dates or the time when they occurred; the actual dates of some important eras whose epochs are disputed; the most important epochs and eras which fa been employed at different times and by different nations, including those which are still in use; and the actual dates in the most prominent events in classical chronology. UNDER THE THIRD AND LAST DIVISION are consid- ered the epochs and eras of lesa importance; a sketch of the chronology of India and China; the princi- ples of the art at mineaiotech ny as applied to dates, and the different systems of that art which have been propounded. e author believes that a work successfully exe- cuted upon this plan, though it may notcontain very much that is new, cannot but be useful and profitable not only to the reading public, but also to the youth of our country, in the acquisition of classical and historical learning ; and history will be the study of this age; it must always be the study of thouglitful men in times of revolution and great political chan- ges, such as our Goce i is at present undergoing. The contributions of North Carolina, and ot the Southern States of the Union generally, to American literature, have heretofore been law, and for the most art, worthless. A few works of fiction and some ugitive poems include our past efforts; and with the excellent Latin Grammar, and the edition of Cwsar's Commentaries, prepared for the press by Col. Bing- ham—works the very best of their character which have ever fallen under our observation. and which, under more favorable circumstances, will yet win for their author that high reputation in his profession which he merits—our contributions to useful litera- ture are of the very humblest character. Under such circumstances this book is, with some confidence, pre- sented for public patronage. The author proposes to publish by enbscription . — The cost of publication will be fifteen hundred dol- lars, or more. The book contains about two bnn- dred and fifty 12 mo. pages. It will be bronght out in the best style of one of our best American pub- lishers, as to type, paper and binding. The cost of single copies delivers will be €2.50. ; fereons desiring to subscribe can communicate with the undersigned at Raleigh. but subscription lista will be opened at various places of business in Raleigh and other townsin the State. Subscriptions will be required in cash as essential to the success of the enterprise. Editors who will give this Circular a few insertions and forward a copy of their papers containing it to the author, will be furnished with a copy of the book. Re volume will be placed in the hands of the pab- lisher ag soon as the author's success is at al! assured, and will be issued to subscribers a fewweeks there- after. EB. GRAHAM HAYWOOD. Raleigh, N.

Great neglect exists in the strict quarterly pre- payment of postage on printed matter sent fo Teg- ular subscribers. No such paper should be de- livered unlessit is either pre-paid at the mailing office, or at the delivery oftice, for at least a quar. ter. Ifnotso prepaid, postmasters must collect postage on each copy as on transient matter.

The Undersigned, Themselves Members of the Sabbath School. propose to commence in the city uf Raleigh, on or about the Ist of next May, “THE SUNDAY SCHOOL BANNER.” And in the commentement of this little work of love, being boys, ourselves, may we not appeal to every Sunday School boy, and girl in North Carolina to come up promptly to aid the undertaking. In ourown State, there are very many Sabbath Schools, aud from the best information we have, the scholarship is large and increasing, and it is from them we look for that patronage which is necessary to improve and keep Hoating, this native stan- dard which we propose for their benefit. It is not for pecuniary gain that the “BANNER,” is established ; it has for its aim higher ob- jects, and if we succeed in our enterprise, it will be to us in after life a source of great sat- isfaction to know that, in our boyhood days, we gave a helping hand to Sunday Schools, the preparatory Schools for places of high trust and position, in the work of our Heaven- ly Father. Its name sufficiently indicates the object which is to control its editorial conduct. There is necessity however fur the remark that it will not be denominational, but alike open to all the Sabbath Schools of this State for eon- tributions, in which there is no spice of secta- rianism. The “BANNER” will be issued monthly on handsome type, clear white paper and will contain fourteen columns reading matter, quar- to length.

Priday Bvening, May 11, 1866. = ———— LEWis HANES, Biitor. HP Judging from information which we gather from our various exchanges, we think that the plan of restoration reported by the famous Committee of Fifteen meets with but little favor in any quarter, and we do not believe that it will ever be agreed to even by the requisite majority of each House of Congress. The plan is not warmly received by*’any of the leading Republican papers, while many of the ablest of them oppose it outright. We have not the least idea that the plan will ever be adopted. Even if Congress should agree to present the proposed Constitution- al amendments to the States, they will not be ratified by three-fourths of the, loyal” States, much less by “three-fo oe all \ the States.” We think the fall elections, “a ‘2p ests” Sellar Fae tei Btates, and that the policy of the President will finally prevail we do not entertain a doubt. Yet, owing to the power of the Radicals in the present Congress, we think it very doubt- . ful whether any of the Southern States with the probable exception of Tennessce _ and Arkansas will be represented in that branch of the government before the meet- ing of the next Congress. Trouble in the Radical Camp. The Radical’, says the Richmond En- quirer, have been sorely troubled by the defection of Secretary Stanton, and his adhesion to the President. When the statement was published a few days ago, of the result of the Cabinet consultation on the Report of the Reconstruction Com- mittee, and when they saw it affirmed that Stanton had expressed his concurrence with the President in his opposition to that pestilent programme, while Harlan was reduced to non-commitalism and silence, they were confounded and alarmed, The first expedient was to deny the cor- rectness of the account. It had been manipulated by the President and Seward, and made simply what they wished it. “ Responsible and well-informed friends of Mr. Stanton” had been heard to say that it was impossible,—that it was absurd! Stanton to turn upon the friends who had held him in his seat when delicacy and propriety commanded him to withdraw, in order that he might watch and embarrass and betray the President? Incredible ! But time passed, and brought no contra- diction, no qualification, from Mr. Stanton! His endorsement of the President, his de- nunciation of the programme of the Com- mittee of Fifteen, have had at least the confirmation of his silence. Contrary to all expectation, both of his former friends and his former foes, Stanton seemed in- deed to have swapped the one for the oth- er, and taken his stand against Radical extravagance, and on the side of common sense, the Conatitution and the President. If any lingering hope or doubt remained as to the accuracy of the statement of Mr. Stanton’s present position, it has now been dispelled. In the National Republican of yesterday we are quasi officially informed that the account of the Cabinet consulta- tion was from the highest source—was in effect official, And not only does the Republican, by its new outgiving, clinch the nail as to Stanton, but it takes Secretary Harlan out of the neutral, silent, non-commital posi- tion before allowed him, and again affirms that he, too, after the council broke up, de- clared, in retiring, his concurrence in the views of the President, and the other mem- bers of the Cabinet! It thus appears that instead of regaining Stanton, the Rad- icals have lost Harlan, also! The Cabinet is @ unit, save Speed, and he is at his home in Kentucky. The effect of these defections, and of the defection of leading newspapers at the North, has been to bring the Radicals to a halt. As the “subject” told the mesmeriat who, after being obeyed in a multitude of other commands, ordered him to descend into a well, they find that in their Recon- straction proceedings they “are carrying things a little too far.” Forney, even though more bitter, quacks less loudly, and the Senate has taken the back track. By a vote of twenty-ono to cightcen, they have *<considered the amendment to the Post-Office bill by which they sought to strip the President of his power of removal. | They knew it would be vetoed, and they discovered that they could not pass it over athe veto; and they concluded to beat a re- treat. Having begun to give way, ic is to be , 2 hoped that Radicalism is near its over- throw. The great joint to be gained in combatting with enthicned Wrong, ia to destroy its prestige of invineibility. The first staggering blow, is the victory; for it mever recovers, “Error, wounded, writhes in pain, And dies amid her worshippers.” Let all good men and true patriots be encouraged to write, and presa with zeal on the retreating ranks of fanaticism, dis- mBi@D apd aparchy. j . a yy VW, 7 y I hous > - f WA A Sy) KLE 4s 7 Y ¢ A Interesting Decision zits Revard to An important decision was rendered a few weeks ago, by-the Hon, George R. Clay- ton of Columbus, acting aa special Judge, the interest of which hinges upon the va- lidity of a payment made in Confederate money. The case was thatofDuke & Cade vs. John, W. Perking, being a bill for spe- cific performanee of contract. It was tried in the Sixth Judicial district of Mississip- pi; the Judge, Hon. H. W. Foote, not sit- ting in the case, henee the necessity of the special Jadge. ; The Mobile Register has compiled the following facts, of which we avail ourself: On the 27th of January, 1864, the de- fehdant sold to complainant’s 20,000 of lint cotton for the sum of $7000, which was paid at the time in treasury notes of the nner pee States. The defendant (Perkins) agreed t0 take ordinary: care of the cotton and deliver it to con ts when afterwards regain nan Ph ag on ee 4 to D ied to; hforcs a apecific performance of the contract. The defendant, by his counsel, submit- ted the following grounds of defence : Ist. That the act of secession by the State of Mississippi, and consideration with other States being a violation of the Con- ssitution af the United States, no govern- ment was created by said Confederacy which could perform any binding act, and the issuing of treasury notes to be used as money was as nullity, and consequently was not such a consideration as would make a contract legal between individuals. 2d. That the Constitution of the United States prohibited the States from “emittin bills of credit,” and that the States eoald not do collectively what they were pro- hibited from doing separately. That said treasury notes which formed the considera- tion of the contract sued on, were “bills of credit,” and having been issued in viola- tion of the Constitution of the United States, were illegal and void, and said con- tract, founded on said illegal consideration, cannot be enforeed either in law or equity. 3d. That said Treasury notes were is- sued to carry on a rebellion against the government of the United States, and the same having been issued in violation of the Constitution, law and public policy could raise no consideration upon which a legal and binding contract could be erect- ed. The lucid and learned decision of Judge Clayton on the questions thus presented is published in the Columbia Sentinel. We have not sufficient space to copy it in full, and can only briefly state its general pur- port. After a statement of the origin of late war, the Judge proceeds to refute the fallacy of the argument for the defence, which undertook to prove that the Conati- tution and laws of the United States were in ful operation over the Southern States during the war. He shows that the citi- zen, owing partial allegiance, at least, to both governments, could not commit the crime of treason, when his action was con- trolled by State authority. So far as this principle carricd in England, that the citi- zen is held exonerated from the crime of treason onerated from the crime of treason even for supporting a usurper against the rightful sovereign. He quotes Blackstone, who says: “Yt is held tha. a King de facto and not de jure, in other words a usurper that hath got possession of the throne, is a King, within the meaning of the statute, as there is a temporary allegiance due to him, for his administration of the government and temporary protection of the public; and therefore treasons committed against Hen- ry VL., were punished under Edward IV., though all the line of Lancaster had been previously declared usurpers by act of Par- liament.” And again, “When, therefore, a usurper is in possession, the subject is excused and justified in obeying and giving him assistance; otherwise under usurpa- tion no man could be eafe, if the lawful prince had a right to hang him for obedi- ence to the powcr in being, as the usurper would certainly do for disobedience ” Reasoning on the lL asis of these well es- tablished principles, Judge Clayton says : “It is evident that, if this doctrine be correct, and treason cannot be committed by rendering assistance to a usurper who has possession of the government against the fewfl prince, most certainly the citi- zen of a State, owing not oy tem i but permanent allegiance to the State gov- ernment, cannot be amenable to the gener- al government for rendering obedience to the authority of his State, notwithstanding by so doing he will violate his federal alle- giance. A contrary doctrine in conflict between a State and general government, would render the escape of a citizen. from the crime of treason impossible; for the obedience of one would constitute treason against the other.” The Judge proceeds to show that the late war could not, then, be considered as a mere rebellion, but that it was a genuine war between beligerent powers—a ‘civil war,’ as he terms it, and that individuals engaged in it are not personally responsi- | ble for ects committed in obedience to the authority of their respective grovernments, This position is sustained by a full ar ray of authorities—among them by the de- cisions of the United States courts during the war. The next step in the argumeut is thus stated: “We cannot hold that the suspension of the Federal Constitution and Jaws left the | Contederate States in perfect anareby, with i} ene ‘ | uo law controling centracta or rights of | property. But we conceive, that as the States continued all their power and fune- tion of government which they possessed | fore the war, and created a dé facto {government with belligerent power, the two combined possessed authority to en- force the law and give ample protection ‘end validity to the propesty, rights, apd ment during its de facto exinteté shows vey conclusively that, a the Federal Government has the validity of purchase .made wit notes, by seizing cotton and other of the Confederages -States,. she tial which was acquired by the O»nfit Government through purchases these treasury notes. sion is drawn with irresistible ’ fe contracts, of which the consi rat the payment of Confederate one} the 46 foote existence .of. the, ail thc yer to condense it without injustice to’ the ar- t.

If this condition be intisted upon, the President will veto the bill, for he cannot, of course, signa bill thjt de- rives him of all his constitutional power. “he consequence will be that ‘the Post- office Department will be closed ad the postal service suspended. This wonld be revolutionary. Congress could, by pur- suing the same course of usurpation, des- troy the Government. The post-office appropriation Dill .waa tor. But as congress was y to the bill as soon as it met again, the De- partment was enabled to get along by is- suing certificates of indebtedness. But no one would trust this Congress to do any better at the next session than at this. The motion to reconsider the amend- ment was before the Senate to-day, and Mr. Poland objected to it. He could not stand before the people, he said, upon the proposition to refuse payment to a public officer. But Mr. Trumbull could, and the le, he said, would support Congress in Fhe refasal to pay money to aid in the de- feat of measures which Congress deems ne- cessary to maintain the Government and perpetuate the Union. Mr. Sherman took a very practical and reasonable view of the question, As to some officers, the Presi- deat, as he urged, must of necessity have absolute power of removal—such as the cabinet ministers and diplomatic agents. The President, for these and other ohleers, must have around him his personal friends. If the Republican majority are alarmed at the removal of half-a-dozen officers in Pennsylvania and Illinois, what will be the effect of a general sweep of all the Radical office-holders ? : Congress is blundering and floundering, and don’t know from day to what their own licy is. ‘They agree in opposition to the resident’s policy, no matter what that may be. Ifhis policy should be better than theirs, if indeed they should ever have any policy, he will have a better chance to be elected President without a nomination than any one else with the nomination of Congress. It is the Presi- dential question that Congress is looking to, and not to the promotion of any policy for the réstoration 6f the Gnion. ; An order is understood to have been re- ceived at the office of the Attorney Gener- al from the President, directing that the dockets of applicants for pardon be cleared entirely, vit is almost equivalent'to the issue of a general amnesty, the leaders and prominent individuals being alone except- Certain it is, the issue of a general or- der cannot now be much longer delayed. COLORADO DOOMRD. Some of those who voted for the Color- ado bill are industrioasly circulating a re- rt that the President will sign it; but am assured he will do nothing of the kind. What is more, the bill cannot be afded over the veto go the question may e considered as settled against the young territory. ; I have seen a sketch of the report of Hon. Reverdy Johnson and James I’.

The bright “ hope-castles,” the sweet day dreams of childhood all seemed to shed a halo of light around me, as J read _ the fa- tuiliar letters from a dear cousin who used to play long ago at the same home among the wild-wood, birds and flowers. Those were brave, good letters, “In each line was some sweet token Treasured for the thoughts it gave ; In each one, some bright hope spoken, Shining stil! in memory’s wane.” The hand that penned them sleeps far away now, in “a soldier’s lone grave,” none of those he loved best shall drop the tear of affection there, no kind hand may strew the “ mogs-covered mound” with flowers, those meet emblems of the “ still heart ’’ beneath —the vacant chair at home may never be filled as of yore, with its bright occupant, but we may meet him again, and when ‘life’s fitful fever’ is passed wear with him the crown of eternal life, for “Tis dust to dust beneath the sod, But There, up There, ‘tis heart to heart.” As [ closed the letters, a feeling of sad- ness mingled with a sense of loneliness crept over me, but I would not wish the writer back when I recollect the words of some kind person in speaking of this young soldier’s death. “ Mourner ’round the domestic hearth, wouldst thou call the pure boy back again?’ No, no, rest on young heart, secure from the cares you once said “must come to all young minds as they grow older.” They cannot cast a shadow over your sunny spirit again.— Sleep on! many who were near and dear to you, are resting beneath the sod—other gentle voices are missed from the same “home circle ;” but sad tears will dim the eyes of her who watched ovcr each one, for “ They grew in beauty side by side They filled one home with glee.” But time has somewhat softened the grief for those, and it will be felt anew whenever she thinks of her “little E.’s grave.” Memory’s voices! They can lead me backward through 1.) g, almost forgotten years. They bring up scenes we have lost sight of amid life’s busy hours; and cause our hearts to beat fast with emotions awa- kened at their sound. A forgotten song, learned long ago, has the power to call up many thoughts and feelings, when it is heard afte: many years; and will always be connected in our minds with some lov- ed one. At the still hour of twilight I love to listen to the music of “Home, Sweet Home,” hummed by some cheerful work- man’on his homeward way ; but sweeter, more soul-seothing to the world-weary mind as the thrilling song “ Rock me lo sleep Mother,” for it ie eure to bring with it a thousand “memories” of the one who taught me to “lift the heart and bend the knee.”’ At such a moment our hearts echo back the lines : “Tired of tho hollow, the base and untrue, Mother, Oh! mother, my heart calls for you.” and ere we know it, we are knecling in im- agination, by a grave where the best friend we ever knew, is laid, and from it we bear away in our hearts, a talisman that will throw light into all the shaded places of our ‘‘life-path ’—it is this: “ Meet me in the Better Home.” We go forth with a determination to lead a new life, to battle with the ills of adverse fortune, and do all the good we can, that we too may leave a lamp still burning, a light that will point others to the Port of rest even as we are guided by our talisman of Hope. We are sometimes prone to murmur over Aeparted days, complaining of the dull present, and think our lives are worthless, and devoid of pleasure, but we may make happiness if we try—if we pass the thorns by cheerfully, and only remember the roses that bloom along our pathway / My twilight dream is almost ended.— The twinkling stars peep out from the “deep blue” above me, and the “bird music’? warbles among the leafy boughs around, and recall me from the dreamy “El Dorado land.” The still, musical voices of memory are growing faint, and soon the busy thoughts and every day ob- og will dnve away the calming spell that come over me, bringing up ferme and tinted hills of the| P scenes of hours, But pres- ent will ate the “silent rem who have visited my heart to-night, and made me feel that “I have now loved ones in the ‘spirit land’ that are left on earth to me.” Bright, beautiful sleepers! “Grass lumes wave above your on "—the ivy, like my heart, still clings around them, and will entwine there many a year. Your lives were and noble, and there are many to whom “this remembrance will come like the dreams of an angel,” a8 it has come this pleasant spring evening, and brought a repose that does not seem born of earth—-longing desire to the heart of “QALLORE.” Thomasville, N. CO. SENATE. ~ reported a bill to restore Commander Chas. Hunter to his former rank in the navy. In the early part of the war, Commander Haun- ter pursued a blockade runner and ran her ashore and captured her on the coast of Cuba within a marine league of that island. The Spanish government took umbrage at this as a violation of the neutrality laws, and Commander Hunter was cashiered at its demand. The bill was passed. The resolutions introduced yesterday relative to preventing the introduction of the cholera into this country and Postal Appropriation Bill were further discussed, without definite action on either. A_ bill was introduced to regulate appointments to and removals from office. HOUSE. The House passed a bill to allow Vice Admiral Farragut asecretary with the rank and pay of a Lieutenant in the Navy. The special order, viz: The joint reso- lution proposing an amendment to the Con- stitution was taken up and several mem- bers availed themselves of the opportunity to deliver thirty minute speeches for or against the proposition. Among those who endorsed the amend- ment was McKee, of Ky. Mr. Raymond said he was willing to ac- cept the report provided the third section was stricken out. ~~. From South America. New York, May 9.—Panama advices state that the news is unimportant. Matters remained perfectly quiet in Val paraiso since the bombardment. All the Spanish flect, with one exception, had sailed for northern ports. The Danish Consul General sent a note to the Spanish Admiral, saying that his government would hold Spain responsible for the damage done to Danish property in Valparaiso. The Admiral refused to re- ceive the note. Immediately after the bombardment of Valparaiso, the English Minister was re- quired to vacate the premises occupied by him, and no one will rent him another house. His name was also stricken from the list of members of the “Club de la Union.” Only two lives were lost and eight per- sons wounded during the bombardment. One hundred and fifty-one government stores, containing upwards of $8,000,000 worth of foreign merchandise, were de- stroyed. The bulk of the loss will fall on foreigners. At Callao preparations were actively making for the reception of the Spanish fleet, by the erection of fortifications. ——-aa>>—— The Death Warrant of Frobst.

BY MATTHEW 0. FIELD. Moonlight is sleeping on the wave, Yon sandy beach shines in the ray, And silver are the sands that pave Fair Pascagoula bay. Yon isles of green seem spirit-bound, While spell-like silence floats around ; And yon mysterious objéct. mark ! Far o'er the glassy surface, see The branching root of some dead tree Peep out above the shallow sea, Ltke water spirit, dark. Like some lone spirit of the water Gazing upon the fair moonlight, Or sighing for some earthly daughter In silence and in night. Does sorrow dwell beneath the wave? In coral grot and crystal cave? = * | Ah! sorrow ever o’er the earth With joy goes, almost hand in hand, Changing and mingling joy and mirth Thick as you silver sand. The songs.ers on their summer wings, The fairest and the best of things, Find mirth still mingled with alloy. Ah! sadness dwelleth everywhere Upon the earth and in the air, And ‘neath the waves, yes, even ten Grief mingles still with joy. Hark! listen! doth my musing, Jone And dismal, lift my fancy high ? Or whence this sad and sighing tone Of music floating by ? Now swells it ever leaf and bough, Beneath, along the water now, And ah! how very sad it seems, Mournful as solemn tolling bells, Echoes of by-gone funeral knells, Like spirits sighing their farewells, Or music heard in dreams. And ’tis not fancy, for they tell How long ago was heard the sound ; How here the red men fought and fell, And in the bay—were drowned. They say it is a spirit land Mourning in Pascagoula’s sand; The bones of many tribes are there; Their moans left echoes on the waves That roll o’er their eternal graves, And as the beach the waters lave, Sad music fills the air. Again! how strange ! it cannot be The night wind, for the night is still, And not a leaf stirs on the trees, Or blade upon the hill : Now deep, now distant, now so Dear, You start and smile at your own fear, And all so mournf .} swells along The sound it thrills your feelings deep, You long jo steal away and weep, You sigh to listen—and to sleep, Lulled by this spirit song. Not when the tempest whips the wave, Not when the stom fiend’s rage is stirred, But when ’tis silent as the grave, Then is the music heard; Then, wildly, sweetly, from the lake The spirit-son is heard to break, And o'er the glassy wave to play ; The war song of the Indian brave Comes from his deep and watery grave, And floats upon the silver wave Of Pascagoula bay. ~~ Nothing teaches us patience like the garden. You may go round and watch the open bud from day to day; but it takes its own time, and you cannot urge it on faster than it will. All the best results of a garden, like those of life, are slowly but regularly progressive. “What will you take first in Canada 1” asked a quizzing Yankee of a faithful Fe- nian. “Hot whisky puneh,” was the prompt reply.

Nationa, Express awn TRAanspor- ration Oompany.—It will be seen by reference to its advertisement in this column, that this company has completed arrangements which will enable it to run Qn express trains as far south as Atlanta, Georgia, and as far West as St. Louis, Missouri. It will carry freights of all kinds, from the smallest packages to the heaviest boxes, and it announces to its friends and the public generally that it will work as expeditiously and as cheaply as any other tompany. .The difficulties of this Company have beeh very great. In the attempt to obtain Express fagilitieg, if has been met on every side by rival compatiies, who, by the ex- pendituré of large means, by the granting of loans, by the payment of bonds, those |‘ rivals to the National Express have man- aged to obtain exclusive privileges over several routes, and to perfect arrangements which were very difficult to interfere with. These difficulties have been overcome to a considerable extent, and the Philadelphia & Wilmington Railroad has been induced to grant the company equal facilities with those enjoyed by the Adams Express Co., and at length a through connection to New York by Express has been established, and freights can now be brought through as promptly and as cheaply by this company as by the Adams’ or any other Express Company. ' The National Express Company is now doubtless established on a permanent foot- ing, and is in efficient working order.— “Competition is the life of business,” and in a short time it will probably be seen that the result of competition between Ex- press companies will be to increase Ex- press business, to afford additional facili- ties to the community, and to add consid- erable to, instead of deducting from the business of the companies themselves. The rivalry between the companies will certainly benefit the business public, and will probably not prove injurious to either company. LL eS New Advertisements.

The FIRST PART treats of measuring time and ad- justing its various divisions; the SECOND of fixing dates of historical events and arrang.ng them in or- der; and the THIRD, of miscellaneous matters im- portant to the riage ‘a Unper THe First Division are discussed the day, the week, the month, the year and, certain cy- cles used in computing the civil calendar and pre- paring the Almanac; the origin, history, nature, character, and various sub-divisions of each, espe- cially among the ancients. UNDER THE SECOND DIVISION the methods of as- certaining the dates or the time when they occurred; the actual dates of some important eras whose epochs are disputed; the most important epochs and eras whioh hs heen employed at diflerent times and by different nations, inciuding those which are still in use; and the actual dates in the most prominent events in classical chronology. UNDER THE THIRD AND LAST DIVISION are consid- ered the epochs and eras of less importance; a sketch of the chronology of India and China; the princi- ples of the att of mnemotechyny as applied to dates, and the different systems of that art which have been propounded. author believes that a work successfully exe- cuted upon this plan, thongh it may not contain very much that is new, cannot but be useful and profitable not only to the reading public, but also to the youth of our cvuntry, in the acquisition of classical and historical learning ; and history will be the study of this age; it must always be the study of thoughtful men in times of revolution and great political chan- ges, such as our Sonny is at present undergoing. The contributions of North Carolina, and ot the Southern States of the Union generally, to American literature, have heretofore been law, and for the most art, worthless. A few works of fiction and some pigitive ems include our past efforts; and with the excellent Latin Grammar, and the edition of Cwsar’s Commentaries, prepared for the press by Col. Bing- ham—works the ve.y best of their character which have eves fatien under our observation, and which, under more favorable circumstances, will yet win for their author that bigh reputation in bis profession which he merits—our contributions to useful litera- ture are of the veey humblest character. Under such circumstances thia book is, with some confidence, pre sented for public patronage. The author proposes to publish by subscription.— The cost of publication will be fifteen hundred dol- lars, or more. The book contains about two hun- dred and fifty 12 mo. pages. It will be brought out in the best style of one of cur best American pub- lishers, as to type, paper and binding. The cost of single copies delivered will be $2.50. Peréons desiring to subscribe can communicate with the undersigned at Raleigh, but subscription lista will be opened at various places of business in Raleigh and other towns in the State. Subscriptions will be required in cash as essential to the success of the enterprise. Editors who will give this ( ircular a few insertions and forward a copy of their papers containing it to the author, will be furnished with a copy of the book. Ke volume will he placed in the hands of the pub- liaher as soon as the author's success is at all assured, and will be insued to subscribers a few we eks there- after. FE. GRAHAM HAYWOOS.

The slave institution died out in that State by reason of its unprofitableness, aud hence there was no neces- sity for repealing the code. Massachusetts was the fir+t colony it America that engaged in the slave trade and that ado} a slave vode; and she for years defended she icstitution as one of divine right. ‘After the alulisliment of the slave trade, and it was fio longer piacticable to make money out of it, her good puritans began to discover that it was a great sin; and after a while took to teaching, preaching, and praying against it, and finally brought them- selves to Uelieve that Massachusetts was divinely commissioned to wage a war of extermination not alone against the slave iustitution but against those who held it. All the hard, unchristian speeches her people have ever uttered against southern slave- holders, hit their own ancestors first, And yet their new-born faith fairly seathed and boiled with a venomous fury of all unciaritableness and hatred.

JEFFERSON DAVIS, The following from the New Bedford ( Mass.) Mercury, of Munday last, is probably a correct statement of the present position of the pro- ceedings against ex- President Dhvis : “Hoo. Joho LU. Clifford arrived at his home in this city, yesterday moruing, from. Wasbing~ too, where be bas been in conference with other counsel employed by the Government in refer- ence to the trial of Jeff. Davis fur bigh treason. No definite conclusion bas been reached, certain- Hi pdne will be announced until the Judiciary ommittee of the Huuse complete their inves tigations, If the trial takes place, we bave reason to believe it will be in Nurfolk, Va., and we feel confident it will not be entered upon unless the object which te Government bas in view oxn be attained by it.” The last sentence leaves it to, be inferred that unless-aatters can be so manipulated in advance as to ensure a conviction, there wiil be no trial. Underwood intimated in Washington the other day that Mr. Davis would be brought before bis court in Norfolk, now in session. He was doubtless of opinion that the manipulation had been completed, or if anything remuined to be done, be could do it. Jahn ft. Clifford mep- tioned get ae sonid eight or ten days in this city, a 8 ago occupying himself, as was then Gubeiecd: itr jasstiontlg whether “the object which the government has in view” could be attained, The trial which Mr. Davis seems likely to have will be a trial with a ven. geance. In the House of Representatives, Monday, the following occurred, bearing on this sub- ject : “Mr. Lawrence, of Obio, introduced a bill to regulate the time and fix the place for holding the Circuit Court of the United States for the District of Virginia. [The bill provides that the term of this court stall be held on the first Monday of gate and the first Monday of No- vember,in Richmond, Va., and said Court may adjourn from Norfold to Richmond.] The bill was passed. . Mr. Randall, of Pennsylvania, said that now Justice Chase would do his dut ) and bring par- ties to trial, and not blame the President in the ‘matter. The Speaker said debate was not in order.” The Washington correspondent of the New York Times says, in Monday's issue : “The United States District Court convenes at Norfolk, Virginia, toxmorrow, Judge Under- wood presiding, Chief Justice Chase declines to preside, antil he can be assured that martiat law is abr in Virginia. As there are tbat this bill had passed, he hoped that Chief brought the children ont, one at a time, and taking them ingide the barn despatch. ed them, one by one, with the same axe. In each instance he cut their throats and placed their bodies in the cori efib, hitm- sel’, just in the position they were found, He then went back tothe house and awaited the arrival of Mr. Deeriny, nut expecting that Miss Dolan would accom: pany him. As seon as Mr. D. coring arrived in the carriage be got out, and Probst told him something wars wrong with one of the cows, and asked him to yo over to the barn with him. Mr. Deer.ng went along with him, and Mss Dolan went into the house and took off Ler bounct and ture. Mr. D.ering did not even take off his gloves before going to the barn, bat ; receéded there at once, tullowed by Probst who had an axe con cealed ready for use. As soon aa Mr. Deering entered the door, Probst statcs that he strack him on the head and fell: ed him to the hearth, and then chopped at his neck with the edge of the axe. Mise. Dolan was the next, and last vic- tim. She proceeded to the barn efter coming down stairs and nut finding any of the family in the honse, and Probst, who was in waiting for her, treated her as he had done the rest of the family.— After carry out the bodies and covering them up with hay, the marderer went in- to the house ‘and commenced searching for valnables. I]e states he got no mo ney, butexpected to secure a considar- able amount. tfe states that Miss D>- lan’s pocket book had very little in it. He caw nothing whatever of the two $50 compound interest notes and $21! bill of the same character, that are miss- ing. He remained aboat the hongy for come time, picked up the article- found in the black valise, and left about dark. II's further movements were pretty mach az brought out on the trial, and which are patent to the minds of tie whole community. Probst states that he woald huve confessed to all the murders before, but he feared that if he did so he would be torn tu pices Ly the mob. oe AN ATROCIOUS MURDER. We see the facts of an atrocious military exe: cution, which took placo near Newberry, Suutls Carolina, last year, re-pro‘luced ia a communis cation to the New York Tribune. | It is strange that the Tribune shyuld permit the communi, cation containing such developments to appeat in its columns, but there it is, and we will repeat a fewuf the most striking of its statetuents. ‘Tt seems that a white citizen of South Carolitia, pawed Calvin Orogier, in'a diffieulty witha. oe- gro naued Miles, @ private in. the.

Lieuteor ant Colonel Trowbridge, commanding the regi ment, held a sort of drum head court martial, consisting of himse!f, two lieutenants and a sar. geon, convicted Crozier uf the murder of Mills, and had him shut forthwith. Mills soon got well! There was a murder, bat, alas! the vic tim of it, past all remedies, was Crozier. There were two iovestigations of Truwbridge’s conduct in this atrocity, and (though Mills was produced alive and weil in court, Trowbridge was justified, Even General Deven’s, eom- manding the military district of Charlestun, ex~ claims against the findings of the court, and this uopavished murder will live in memory as not the least in the long list of the licensed crimes of Federal officers.— Richmond Kaeam- iner, Umton Surzrtior Court.—The Sprin Term of this body, Judge Mitchell pre- siding, was in session at.

He was found bor, while in camp there in Augugt, 1863. He wound from its body in one hour and a quarter 150 yards of yellow silk. The next ycar anasher officer wound from 30 spiders 3484 yards, or nearly two iniles of the sitk. A single thread of this was strong enongh to sus- tain a weight of from 54 to 107 grains. In 1865 Dr. Wilder showed his speci men to Prof. Agassiz and others, to whom the species was new. Returning to Charleston he resumed his resdarches, and after a var'ety of adventures and disappointments, succeeded in getting a number of the spider . In the course of the season these all died, from lack of knowledge as to their habits, mode of living &e. From the eggs deposited, however, many o'hers were produced. It is the ‘habit of the stronger to devour the weaker, so that out of several thousand, only a few hun- dred were raised. The fact, however, was clearly demonstrated that they could be raised and live through a Northern winter.

Tell them, that they onglit to be thankful, firet to Almighty God, and to the Southern peoylo for be ing brought from Africa ‘and sold as slaves in the Soath. Otherwiee, if liv- ing at all, they woatd be in Africa, and in the very same condition atthis day, in which their progenitors were foaud ‘two hundred yeasts ago—for in Africa, the negro has not advanced, to this day, fromthe barbarism’ that existed in that country two thousadd years ago, , It there is any blesaing on eartli the negroes of the South ought to be thankful for, it is that they were bronght from Africa and made elaves in Arnerica.

Prominent members of the Reconstruction Com- mittee are still affirming that they intend to adhere close'y to the amendment and bill as reported.— A canvass of the House, however, has shown that the amendment cannot’receive a two-third majori- ty as it at present st&nds, anc] its authors are not quite so foolish as to jeopardize the fate of the plan by insisting upon what it is clearly foreseen cannot over-ride a veto.

In their be- halt we invite them to come,— Union Banner. ! ure bie there amon m The above, from our city contemporary perhaps demands some notice at our hands. Our contemporary seems to think that any man or Woman who takes the “test oath” will be “branded with infamy to the latest generation.” Now, we will not bandy epithets with our neighbor, but we must cynfesg that we find it ‘difficult to distinguish between a man whose tondtict mist “ brand him with infamy to the latest feneratiop,”’ and one who supported him for office aglely because his conduct had been such that.it “was sufficient to Miign him to infamy.” In the late contest for Congregs in this district, the Banner warmly supported Dr. Sloan, upon the expreas ground that he could take the ‘“expurgatory oath,” and supported him against Dr. Ramsay, and General 8. H. Walkup, a gallant soldier of the Confederate army, its objection to both these latter gentlemen being that they could not take the test oath. If Dr. Sloan is, and was at the time the Banner sup- ported him for Congress, an infamous man, then we humbly submit that the Banner became a particéps criminis, by its endorse- ment and support. of him. The Banner claims to be a great admi- rer and a warm supporter of President Johnson. Ih its issue of the 3d of April last, it speaks of him, in connection with the statesmen of our Revolutionary era— the Fathers of the Republic—and pro- nounces him “the noblest Roman of them all.” President. 'J6hhson “is ‘a Southern man, a native son of North Cagolina, and an adbpted son of Tennessee, and yet he is not only able to take the expurgatory oath because of ‘his negative Position to- wards the Confederacy “during the late bloody struggle,” but because he exerted all his energies against it, and strugcled with all the might of his strong will to re- store the national authority over the South- em States.’ If, then, humble men and woinen among, ys, who, through a heroie devotion to principle which many are un- able to understand, ¢an ‘take the test oath, are to be ‘“ consigned to infamy,” to what an immortality of infamy must An- drew Johnson be “consigned.” We will not step to characterize sach supporters of President Johnson. ’ But the Banner regards these men and women as * traitors to their own section.” Many lhoneat and conscientious men, taking the same view of the matter in one sense that the Banner does, regatded their alle- giance as due to their COUNTRY, instead of their “section,” and manfully and hero- ically stood by their principles, in the midst of persecutions and denunciations, We mire and respect an honest secessiontst, throughout the entire civil war. ad- who stood by bis principles, and who did not shrink from the consequences of them. | All that is necessary for us to know, to ad’ mire and respect any man, is to know that he is an honest man, and is governed by principle, it matters not whether he agrces with us ornot; but, unfortunately, we have many cn among us Who are so narrow- minded aud bixoted that they campot be- 7; 7 ee) ees meen see and think as they do, mous men in North Carolina to-day are those who were consistent Union men— who were governed “by Tigh principle. ple, solely. aes bg onal feel- ing involved it The sadtte dll of them, How that thie struggle igiovér, why are men of intelligence, ary fori uyiversul amnesty, ‘and are using their-fhfluence to reconcile our people in‘every*possible way upon the basis of present loyalty and mutual for- giveness; while such articles as this from the!

Worth We are glad to see this. it hax been cntirely satisfactory to every Gov. Worth’s loyalty is cutirely above suspicion, unprejudiced mind. If a consis- tent Union record is a rccommendation to any of our own people, or to our Northen brethren, then no man in the State can present a fairer one than Gov. Worth. But while he has always been a Union man in sentiment, he is vet liberal and ‘He is in fact one of the truest and best Union men in the State, as He desires that the Union shall be fully re- stored in the hearts of all the Southern people, and, therefore, he is the Governor j of the State, and not of a party or a fac- Ile is for pczee upon the basis of general pardon and amnesty, and opposed to any wholesale proscription. This being the ouly course that can restore the Union upon a broad and enduring basis, as a con- sistent Union man he could not possibly. pursue aay other. ia : But apart from any consideration of this kind, Gov. Worth’ still has’ very ‘high claims. His purity and integrity none can question. He is eminently a practical man. He has administrative ability of a very high order. He is one of the very ablest financiers in the State; and there never was a time when financial talent was more needed in the Executive administra- tion of the Government. We sincerely hope that Goy. Worth will have no oppo- sition, but that he will be re-elected by the universal consent of all parties. It isa compliment which he well deserves. We are also highly pleased with the liberal and patriotic stand taken by our friend, the Hon. R. P. Dick, in the meet- ing referred to. Although Mr. Dick was not among the supporters of Gov. Worth, at the late election, yet we have always known that he was a liberal and a conser- vative man. He was, to our knowledge, from the first, in favor of a very general, if not universal amnesty. His speech, as reported in the proceedings, does credit alike to his head and heart, and it cannot fail to have a good influence in the county of Randolph, where Mr. Dick is well known and highly respected, and where such councils are so much needed. Noth- ing would rejoice us more than to see eve- ry Union man in the State giving utter- ance to such sentiments, and for the life of us we cannot see how a good Union man can entertain any others. conservative. is shown. by his conciliatory course, y 3 tion. eee It is not everybody who knows where to joke, or when, or how; and whoever is ignorant of these conditions had better not Joke at all.

The sent decline has been very steady and gradual.

Very few have funds sufficient to conduct their farms until fall, and they want to sell their large surplus tracts of land, which they can never again cultivate for themselves, at prices ranging from fifty to ten dollars per acre. Thirteen thousand acres of good timber and prairie land, within ten miles of Aberdeen, are of- fered for sale at fifty cents and one dollar per acre. Improved farms of eighty or one undred and six acres may be bought for five or six hundred dollars... Poor men, can never have a better chance to emigrate.

A Remarkable Suicide:—Sterling King, confined in the Louisville jail, recently committed su‘ cide under st-ang’ circumst:n- ces. He was a man of intlexible will, The charge upon which he was imprisoned was stealing horses in Cincinnati, Otjo, and a requisition was sent for him by the Gov- ernor of that State, Shortly after his im- prisonment King determined to commit suicide, and opened an ercery in his arm during the night, but it was | ee and his purpose frustrated. He then deter- mined to starve himself to death, and per- sistently refused to cat anything. In for- ty days he partook of food but five times, and all that he ate during the entire time did not amount to one full meal fora hung- ry man. His flesh gradually disappeared and his bones became prominent. He ceased to walk or stand, and could only lay on his cot and breathe. He refused to eat until he was told the time when the an- ticipated requisition from the Governor of Ohio would reach Louisville. He did not wish to die in jail, but out in the open air, and took just enough food to prolong his life until the requisition came. On May 9th the detectives, with the necessa pa- pers, took King from prison’ and ot Fe im on the mail-boat to be carried to Cin- cinnati. hey tried to make him eat, but he would not, and on May 10th, just as the boat reached Cincinnati, he died. He was the same man who, in order to pro- cure his release from prison, said that he was the assasia who tried to kill Secretary Seward. That statement availed him noth- ing, however, and he accordingly deter- mined on suicide. 0G THe MELLEXNIUM —A literary curios- ity has just appeared in London, under the title of ‘Louis Napoleon the Destined Monarch of the World,’ &c., by the Rev. M. Baxter, author of “The Coming Battle.’ It is said that 12,000 copies have been sold—the book finding notwith- standing its apparent absurdity, on ac- count of the noteworthy names used by the author as authorities. We are indebted to Mr. Baxter for the cheerful news that the world is toend in 1873—so that people may set about their preparations for that event as soon aa they like; but during the brief interval of six or seven years, the Emperor of the French is to become solely monarch of the world, personally repre- senting the Antichrist of the latter day.— He is to become ruler over England and most of America, the rest of Christendom submitting to his sway. He is to make a covenanant with the Tews, who by his aid are to return to. Palestine, resume their rank as a nation and rebuild Jerusalem.— Napoleon is then to begin and carry on the persecution of Christians, which an- swers to the pouring out of the viale.— ‘Two years. and six weeks’ after the date of the covenant with the Jews, ‘the assen- tion of the 144,000 wise virgins’ is ex- pected to occur.

Financial Storm Brewing —The New York Sun, of the 16th, says the signs of the coming financial storm are steadily growing more ominous. ‘The comparative ullness of business, the downward tenden- cy of prices, the increasing number of fail- ures, and the uneasiness manifested in near- ly every department of trade, are sure har- binzers of a general financial crash. Eve- ry shrewd observer has been convinced, for a long time, that a crisis is inevitable, and that its coming is only a question of time. The financial atmos- phere has been closely watched. The gath- cring of the clouds has been seen,.and now, in the failures that are beginning to appear, we have the fitful guests that betoken the near approach of the hurricane. ———_~~<£o—___ — Very Much of a Widow--A French In the great annual exhibition of pictures in Paris, there is this year a portrait of a lady, with the simple title of “'The Wid- ow,” in the catalogue. There is a terrible story connected with this picture. "The la- dy is the Countess O » Who although only twenty-four years of age, has been twice widowed. She is said to be of hum- ble birth, but when only sixteen years of age her great beauty: attracted the attention of the Marquis de who married her. On leaving the church, however, the Marquis was assassinated by some obscure rival, and the lady was left'a widow with an immense fortune. The marquis retired to a convent where she remained until her twentleth year. She then made a journey to various parts of Europe, and visited among other places, St. Petersburg, where one of the most wealthy bayarde of Russia placed at her fect his heart, his diamonds, and his millions. The marriage was celcbratcd in the house of the bridegroom’s mother, in a remote part of Russia, some distance fromhis own estate. The newly married couple left for their new home in a magnificent sleigh.— On the way they were attacked by wolves, and the Count, in trying to defend his bride, made a false step, fel out of his sleigh inta the snow, and was immediately devoured by the wolves. The horses, mad with ter- ror, dashed off with immense 8 » and did not stop till they arrived at the Count’s chateau, which was brilliantly illuminated for the reception of the newly married eou- ple. _ The first institution vouchsafed to ovr race was the Sabbath; the next marriage, So give your first thought to iecresete wext to your wife. , THE OGD‘ NORTH: Saturday Evening, May 19, 1866.

Dr. Enniss is receiving testimonials daily of the great value of this medicine as a spe- cific remedy for Diarhcea, ‘and we have no doubt of its efficacy. ~~ >> We learn that the down accommodation train on the Wilmington and- Weldon Rail Road passed over the body of a white man lying on the track at Goshen Grove trestle, on Monday last. ‘The body was not per- ceived until it was too late to stop the train. After passing over the body the train was stopped and as soon as possible, and upon it was discovered that the man lying upsn the track bore upon his person signs of violence other than the wounds caused by the train. There is no doubt existing in the minds of those who saw the body, that the person was mur- dered and placed there by the vile perpe- trators of the deed, in order to shield them- eelves.— Wil.

Postage stamps cannot be used in pay- ment of the duty chargeable on instruments it is the duty of the maker of an instrus ‘ment tu affix and cancel the stamp thereon, _If he neglects to do so, the party for whom | | | | | | \it is made, may stamp it before it fe used ; and if used after the 80th of July, 1864, and used without a stamp, it cannot afters wards be effectually stamped. Any failure upou the part of the maker of an instru- ment to appropriately stamp it, renders him liable to a penaity of two hundred dol- lars. Suits are commenced in many States by other process than writ, viz: summons, warrants, publication, petition, &c., in which case these, as the original process, severally require stamps, Writs of seira facias are subject to stamp duty as original processes. The jurat of an affidavit, taken before a Justice of the Peace, Notary Public. ot other officer duly authorized to take affiday vits, is held to be a certificate, and subject to a stamp duty of five cents, except when taken in suits or legal proceedings. Certificates of loan in which there shall appear any printed or written evidence of an amount of money to be paid on demand ot at any time designated, are subject to | stamp duty as Promisory Notes. ‘The assignment of a mortgage is subject to the same duty as that imposed npon the org nal instrument; that is to say for every sum of five hundrea dollars, or any fraes ‘tonal part thereof, of the amount secured by the tmortbage, et time of its assignment there must be affixed a stamp or stamps, de~ noting aduty of five cents When two or more persons join in the execution of an istrument, the stamps to which this iustrnment is lable under the law, may be afhxed aud cancelled by one of the partes. In couveyancves of real estate, the law provides that the stamp affixed must anss to the value of the estate on interest conve yed. No stamp is required On any warrant of attorney accompanying # bond or note, when such bond or note has affixed there- tothe stamp or stamps denoting the duty wer required, and whenever any bond or note is secured by mortgage, but one stamp dus ty is required on euch papers, auch stamp duty being the bighest rates requited for Commirsionér of Pensions.

CIRCULAR : To THE PUBLIC: The undersigned has now ready for the press a vol- ume, the result of the lucubrations of many years, entitled a “Short Treatise on Chronology in General, and especially on Classical Chronology.’ The work is not intended to be a chronological chart, nor yet a collection of dates and synchronistic tables. The author's aim has been to prepare a * Horn Book” of Chronology, containing the leading principles, laws and facts of that sciences \ The FIRST PAR® treats of measuring time and ad- justing its various divisions: the sEconp of tixing dates of historical events and arranging them in or- der: and the rHixp, of miscellaneous matters im- portant to the chronologist. Unper THE First Diviston are discussed the day, the week, the month, the year and certain cy- cles used in computing the civil calendar and pre- paring the Almanac; the origin, history, nature, character, and various sub-divisions of each, espe- cially among the ancients. UNDER THE SECOND DIVISION the methods of as- certaining the dates or the t'me when they occurred; the actual dates of some important eras whose epochs are disputed; the most important epochs and eras which have bern @ nployed at different times and by different nations, iucluding those which are still in use; and the actual dates in the most prominent events in classical chronglogy. UNDER THE THIRD AND LAST DIVISION sre consid- ered the epochs and eras of less importance; a sketch of the chronology of India and China, the princi- ples of the art of mnemotechyny a5 ap lied to dates, and the different systems of that art which have been propounded. author believes that a work successfully exe- cuted upon this plan, though it may not contain very much that is new, cannot bat be useful and profitable not only to the reading public, but also to the outh of our country, in the acquisition of classica and historical learning ; and history will be the study of this age; it must always be the study of thoughtful men in times of revolution and great political chan- ges, such as our country is at present undergoing. The contributions of North Carolina, and ot the Southern States of the Union generally, to American literature, have heretofore been law, and for the most rt, worthless. A few works of fiction and some ele ms inclade our past efforts; and with the éxcellent Latin Grammar, and the edition of Casar’s Commentaries, prepared for the press by Col. Bing- ham—works the very best of their character which have ever fallen under our observation, and which, under more favorable circumstances, will yet win for their author that high reputation in his profession which he merits—our contributions to useful litera- ture are of the very hnmblest character. Under such circumstances thia book is, with some confidence, pre- sented for public patronage. ; The author proposes to publish by subscription .— The cost of publication will be fifteen hundred dol- lara, or more. The book contains about two hun- dred and fifty 12 mo. pages. It will be brought ont in the best style of one of our best American pub- lishers, aa to type, paper and binding. The cost of single copies A rallies will be $3.50. ereons desiring to subscribe can communicate with the undersigned at Raleigh, but subscription lista will be opened at various laces of business in Raleigh and other townsin the State. Subscriptions will be required in cash as essential to the success of the enterprise. Editors who will give this Circular a few insertions and forward 8 copy of their papers containing it to the author, will be furnished with a c of the book. ihe volume will be placed in the hands of the pub- lisher a8 soon as the author's success ia at al! assured, and will be issued to subscribers a fewweeks there- after.

After observing the symptoms in many cases ‘he effets of remedies, and baving made several very minute post mortem examinations, I be- lieve the disease to have been a species of chol- ta, Ifo, (many will ask) why not the usual discharges of “rice water” from the bowels, as ‘rom man? To such, J will answer, why not a mule or horae walk upright, like a man, so as to fayor the outpouring of the contents of the bowels, thus being aided with the force of grav~ ‘tation or the hydrostatic pressure?

There was no evidence of constipation in any part of the ‘alimeutary canal. ‘Hence, the regular puristaitic motion of’ the bowels must have been paralyzed, more of Jess. Treatment.—No treatment, as far as we can learn, gave any satisfactory results, and so diss leartened became most planters, that they gen- cially, after a few: fruitless efforts, turned their sick mules out to die, as soon as altacked. The following were among the various articles tried, without avail: Nux.vomica io whisky ; bleed- ing in the mouth; spirits turpentine io lard; molasses and lard; lime water and whisky ; soda; fish brine ; bleeding in thé neck till faint- ing occurred. In some few cases this seemed to give some hope; but failed so frequently to nfford relief that it was soon discontinued As soon asI became satisfied that the disease was cholera, I adopted the following treatment with a favorite mule, after trying other remedies without avail. The animal, I was satisfied, could live bot a few hours, unless relieved, and there reomed but little at stake. ‘This was the last mule attacked of ours, apd I know not bow far the treatment can be relied upon, The mule treated is now well and at work, and bas been for several days, Prescription.—Take Jaudanum, one table~ spoonful ; spirits camphor, balf a tablespoonful ; compound tincture of myrth, two tablespoons ful; whisky half pint; tepid water, Ua wit mix and drench. After giving, the mule ceased to lia down and roll; seemed very sick and. restless during the night, which, however, grad- ually wore off, when the appetite returned, and the cure seems complete. Here the disease seems to have spent its force.

There is no longer a doubt that Mr. Jefferson Davis, ex President of the late Confederate Government, will be tried for treason. The packed jury of “Judge” Underwood, composed of the most an- mitigated scamps to be found in Virgin- ia, have found a Dill of indictment against him for treason. The exact time and place at which the trial will come off is not yet definitely stated. He will nev- ertheless be tried, probably at Richmond, sometime in June next. We have no fears for the result, provided he is award- ela fair and impartial triai. But the Northern Jacobins are still crying for more blood. The enormities of Courts- martials, and Military Commissions and the illegal and ever to be regretted exe- cutions which followed have not satisfied their brutish thirst. The blood of Wirz, Mrs. Surratt, and ma- ny other unfortunate victimes of Military Commissions, has produced in them a devilish and:blood-thirsty feeling, as did that of the poor boy Carey in the mind of the.murderer Probst. te is this fiend- ish feeling of revenge, not for ae wrong, but for the love of crime and the pleas: ure of having a victim, that gives cause forthe greatest apprehension for the fate of Mr. Davis. It is to Andrew Johnson only, we look for justice to Mr Davis. We do not be- lieve that he will see him murdered by the Puritan mob.—Jd o> A Never Failing Remedy for Cholera. —The ollowing extract from the letter of a clergyman to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, presents a very simple, ard, he says, effectual preventive of cholera, as well as a remedy of great power: The preventive is simple—a teaspoons ful of powdered charcoal take three or four times a week, in a cup of coffee or other liquid, in the morning.

Massachusetts, in 1830, sent an agent to Pouth Carolina to confer on the ways and means of a dissolution, and it is notorious that this State has always been in denouncing the Con- ee and Se rinses John Quincy Adams presen @ petition for the disruption of - the Un- ited in 1842, and made an effective speech in favor.of the sovereignty of the States and their 2 sacréd ‘right to withdraw from the compact of which they grew tired. At that date Southern satatesmen opposed dissolution, though ino no in- xtance did they agree to the Federa supremacy now claitned by the Radicals. In 1848 Abrahawn Lincoln advocated separation, and argued strenu- ously for the right of every State to secede from a partnership that had becoine distastful. Senator Hale, of New Hi ire, presented a petition for a dissolution in 1850, and he took oc- vasiun to boast then that he had offered seven pre- vious petitions to the same effect. On the ques- tion whether this petition should be received, there were three votes in the affirmative, and one of those wae that of S. P. Chase! Will he hang a man who hag followed in his footsteps?

They cannot but ed by their reliance upon the national executive 4 find the security of person and property inoreas~ ard ninety two votes were cast, and of this num- ber a majority of 3,152 was given against the proposed change. In September, 1865, witbout any legal aathority, the question was again presented to the people of the Territory with the view of obtaining a reconsideration of the result of the election beld in compliance with the act Congie-s, »pproved March 21, 1864. At this second electivo 5,905 votes were polled, and a majority of 155 was given in favor of State or- ganization. 1t does not seem to me entirely safe to receive this last mentioned result, so ir. regularly obtained, as sufficient to outweigh the one which bad been legally obtained in the first election. Regalarity and conformity to law are essential to the preservation of order and stable goveri.mest, and should, as fer as practicable, | always be observed in the furmution of new States. Third. The admission of Colorado, at this time, as a State into the Federal Union, appears to me to be incompatible with the public inter- es's of the country. While itis desired that Territories sufficiently matured should be organ ized as States, yet the spirit of the Constitution seems to require that there should be an ap- proximation towards equality among the seyer: al States comprising the Union. No State can have more than two Senators in Congress ; the largest State has a population of four millions, several! of the State have a population exceeding two millions, and many others bave a popula- tion one million. A population of 127,000 is the ratio of ap- rtionment of representatives among the se- veral States. If this bill should become a law, the people of Colorado, thirty thousand in nam- ber, would have in the House Representatives ooe member, while New York, with a populas of four millions, has but thirty one. Colorado would have in the electoral college three votes, while New York has no more. Inequalities of this character have already oc- curred, but it is believed that none have hap pened where the inequality was so great. When such inequality bas been allowed, Congress is supposed to have permitted it on the ground of some high public necessity, and under circum~ stances Which promised that it would rapidly disappear through the growth and development ofthe newly admitted State. This, in regard to the'several States in what was formerly call- ed the “ Northwest Territory,” lying east of the Micsissippi, their rapid advancement in popu- dation rendered it certain that States admitted! with only one-or two Representatives in Con- gress would in a | short petiod beentitled to a great increase of representation. . So when California was admitted on the ground of com-~ mercial and political exigencies, it was well fore- seen that that State was destined rapidly to be- come a great prosperous mining: and commer- cial community, the case of Colorado, I am: a political or commercial natizre, requires a de- departure from the law of equality, which bas been 80 yénerally adhered to in our history. If information submitted in connection with this bill is reliable, Colorado, instead of increas- ing, has declined in population. At an election for raembers of the territorial. legislatare held in 1861, 10580 vetes were cast. At the election before mentioned, in 1864, the number of votes cast was 6,192; while at ‘the irregular election held in 1865, which is assumed as a basis for legislative action at this time, the aggregate of votes was 5,905. Sincerely anxious for the welfare and prosperity of every territory and State, as well as for the prosperity and wellare of the whole Union, I regret this apparent de clive of population ia Colorado, but it is mani~ fest that it is due to emigration, whieh is going out from that Territory into other regions with~ in the United Stutes, which either are in fact, or ure believed by the inhabitants of Colorado to be, richer in migegal wealth and agricultural re- sources. If, however, Colorada has not really declined in population another census or another election under the authority of Congress would place !e question beyond doubt, and cause but little delay io the aktiqate admission of the Ter- ritory as a State, if desired by the people. The tenor of these objections furnishes the reply which may be expected to an argument in fa- vor of the measure, derived from the enabling act which was passed by Congress on the 21st day of March, 1864.

With the passing away of old things, a new gpirit of activity, energy and enterprise, has been infused inte every department of secular thought aud business. Why should not the Church, also, partake of the progressive ad- yancement? Why should she, of ail the agencies, brought to bear with such tremen- duous force upon the civilization of the pres- ent tine, be inefficient, laggard and almost hopeless, in the working out of her own des- tiny ! To arouse the church to the importance and necessity of work ; of unceasing, restless, tire- less energy inthe service of her Master and Head ; this shall be our first chiefest aim. In this we need assistance. We are not alone, sufficient for these things. Our brethren must help us in every way; by contributions from theirown stores of thought and study; by zealous co-operation im a common cause, for the benefit of all ; by extending our circulation throughout all our borders, and thus giving us the means and opportunity of performing well the work to which we have consecrated all that we have, and all we hope for on the earth.

Our people have but lately emerged from a gigantic civil war, waged by and between Sections of a once glorious Union, and more desolating to our particular section, than any- thing that has ever happened on this contin- ent, and it is to be hoped, than ever will again. While there is life there is hope, and not- withstanding the great changes wrought by ‘the late civil war, we shall encourage the peo- ple to honesty, industry and economy, we ‘shall take special pains to keep them posted with all beneficial improvements of the age, so that they may once more enjoy bountiful stores, prosperity and happiness. We shall from time to time publish such laws, both State and National, as our people ae directly concerned in, and shall likewise usé our influence to establish a sound circula- tig currency, so much needed at the present tine. We shall be governed by principles and not nen, for according to our honest conviction, the present condition of our country is owing tc the abandonment of principles, we mean the abandonment of those fundamental prin- cisles upon which the Government of the Uni- tel States was reared. We shall favor and encourage the develop- ment of all our resources, Agricultural, Min- enl &c., and likewise such internal improve- ments as will most likely be beneficial to the Country, and especially the extension of the Wilmington, Charlottee and Rutherford Rail Riad west. As to Politics we are True Conservatives, believing neither in the Fire Eaters of the Soath, nor the Radicals of the North, but in the Constitution, the Union, and the enforce- meat of all Constitutional laws, whether State or Federal, and a ready and willing obedience to the same.

The pede bet: Themse lves Members of the Sabbath School. propose te commence in the city uf Raleigh, on or al>wut the Ist of next May, “THE SUNDAY BCHOOL BANNER.” And in the commencement of this litthe work of love, being boys, ourselves, may we not appeal to every Sunday School boy, and girl in North Carolina to come up promptly to aid the undertaking. In ourown , there are very many Sabbath Schools, ané from the best information we have, the scholarship is large and increasing, and it is from them we look for that patronage which is necessary to improve and keep floating, this native stan- dard which we propose for their benefit. It is not for pecuniary gain that the ‘‘BANNER,’’ is established ; it has for its aim higter ob- jects, and if we succeed in our enterprise, it will be to us in after life a source of great sat- _isfaction to know that, in our boyhood days, | we gave a helping hand to Sunday Sehooks, | the preparatory Schools for places of high / trust and position, in the work of our Heaven- ly Father. Its name sufficiently indicates the object which is to control its editorial conduct. There is necessity however for the remark that it will not be denominational, but alike open to all the Sabbath Schools of this State for con- tributions, in which there is no spice of secta- rianism. The “BANNER” will be issued monthly on handsome type, clear white paper and will contain fourteen columns reading matter, quar- to length. We trust sufficient encouragement may be offered to justify the undertaking.

In a short ‘time, the whole country, from the motth of Red river down, and between the Mis- sissippi and the Teche, will be submerged. The.N. O.

In the meantime the overwhelming floods will pass over the garden of Louisiana, and besides the great cotton and sugar grow- ing parishes of West Baton Rouge, Iber- ville, Lafourche, “and ‘Terrebonne, many others will be likely to be overflowed, Some time.ago we were informed that all the bayous were full, from the Chinn and Robertgon crevasses even down to the low- er Atchafalaya, and that many people were driven miserably from their homes.

The following Order, referred to in our telegraphic columns yesterday, has been issued by Gen. Howard: War DEPARTMENT, Bureau of Refy- gees, Freedmen, and Abandoned Lands, WASHINGTON, May 21, 1866. Cireular, No. 4. In order to answer numerous inquirieg from officers, agents and others, and if pos- sible prevent misunderstanding with re. gard to the change of organization in this Bureau, this circular is issued. I. The Commissioner recommended some time since, that the functions of Mjj. itary Commander of a State and Assistant Commissioner be exercised by the same avo the patient was of good ordinary _fig- ure and healthy appearance ; now she is bloated and shapeless in form, her skin is of a tallow-like, cadaverous hue, and her counternance wears a sunken, pinched and anxious expression. ‘These morbid symp- toms have for the past few months rapidly increased, each attack growing more vio- lent and distressing, and threatening to terminate the woman’s miserable existence. She believes there is a snake in her stom- ach, and that her terrible malady is entire- ly owing to the presence and growth of the reptile there. The movements of this creature during the periods of disturbance and when it is deprived of food (if her theo- ry be the trne one,) are plainly discernible even through the patient’s clothing, and are often so violent and prolonged as to produce discoloration of the skin over the region of the stomach, as if from blows. It is also the opinion of her physician that a living creature of some sort, most proba- bly a snake, has taken up its residence in the stomach of his patient. He has had some experience in that direction. He served two years in the army, as surgeon in a New York regiment, and while -sta- The solici- | { i tude which pervades the coutrny would, ee ee a Ve seen diay a girl | perhaps, justify him in addressing the peo- | Who would marry a churt, ae : <4). | Provided he'd plenty of gold, ple upon political topics candidly and pa- | ae — .

Recon- struction is not needed, because the coun- try, as constructed long since, has not been | destroyed. What is needed is reconcillia- tion between the Senators of the United States now acting, and those who, being loyal, have been or may be elected hereaf- ter from the Southern States. ‘Tue people could justly be accepted fellow-citizens.— There is many a man Who will ‘* dress”? if he ean, No matter how empty his purse, And his tailor may look When he settles his book, But his patron has vanished, or worse. I know people so nice, They will faint in a trice, If you mention hard labor to them ; Yet their parents were poor, And were fond to endure Many hardships, life's current to stem. The Southern States have for the last four years been merely disorganized ; they are now organized, and nothing is needed but The President’s plan of re- construction is, that so far and so fast as unrepresented Southern States present concilliation. There are many about With faces “long drawn ont,” Who will prate for the harm of a laugh, Yet they will cheat all the week, themselves in loyal attitudes, by represent- tioned in a Southern State, he, with anoth- er army surgeon, was called by a resident | physician to assist in relieving a man ofa | ‘snake that had got into his stomach. This | man’s symptoms were almost precisely | like those of Dr. B.’s patient in Lancaster. The man was kept from food until the! snake became very hungry, when it was | tempted from its living lair by the smell | MOPrayory viands. Its head was scized by the doctor, and its ugly length drawn forth. It was more than a yard long, and must have occupied the entire cavity of the man’s stomach. Dr. B. thinks that his patient can be relieved of the unwelcome tenant of her stomach by the same method, but she instinctively and naturally shrinks from the trial. It is becoming daily more evident that she cannot survive unless something is done to remove the loathsome creature. It will either strangle her in its attempts to pass up the esophagus, or, from its enlarged size and increased strength, break through the coat of the stomach in some of its struggles for freedom. a GrarE Growimnc.—North-Carolina is peculiarly the home of the vine ; the best grapes cultivated in America are natives of this State. The Catawba, Laspeyres, War- rens, Pamlicos, Skoupernongs and Wac- camaws, ete., are all indigent to her soil. The latitude is known to be best adapted to the grape in its natural condition. ‘The soil that originates is best calculated to pro- duce.

Cc. = oor ates —The fo 4 ers JOURNAL, having been twice enlarged, is one of the largest papers in the country. It is printed on fine white and heavy paper, and contains, in large and clear type, more reading matter, in the form of the latest news. general and special, together with editorial, report- orial and selected matter of interest and im portance, than any paper published seuth of New York. The NaTIoNaL INTE LIGENCER is devoted to News, Liter- ature, the Interest of Religion, and Polit'cal affairs. It gives, during the sessionof Congress, co'rect reports of the debates and proceedings of the two H: use-, as well as the laws and pnblic documents of each sessicn, and at all times and every day the telegraphic despatches an- nouncing the latest intelligence fram every quarter of our own and other countries. The paper has been so long es- tablished, and is so bahar known as hardly to require any fo mal exposition ef its politieal character and prin- ciples. As heretof. re, it aims ‘o be as its name imports, a National paper, maintaining the just Constitutiona! powers of the General Government on one hand, and the reserved rights of the &tates on the other—confident that the Union can only be maintained « hile the rights of each shall be respected by both and not transcended by either. Wrile the Inte ligencer advocates what the Editors con- scientiously believe to be right and wise in the administra- tion of public affai s, it always strives to give a fair and liberal support to those to whose hands is committed that administration ; and as they hold an independent press to be one of the great safeguards of \iberty, and there- fore claim the right of criticising the acts of the Govern- ment with freedom, they endeavor to discharge that duty with moderation, candor, and respect, botu;#or them- selves and those from whom they differ.

CIRCULAR : To THE PUBLIC: The undersigned has now ready for the press a vol- ume, the result of the lucubrations of many years, entitled a ‘‘Short Treatise on Chronology in General, and especially on Classical Chronology.” The work is not intended to be a chronological chart, nor yet a collection of dates and synchronistic tables. a he author's aim has been to prepare a ‘‘ Horn Book” of Chronology, containing the leading principles, laws and facts of that science. ; ; The FIRST PART treats of measuring time and ad- justing its various divisions; the skconp of fixing dates of historical events and arranging them in or- der; and the rHiEp, of miscellaneous matters im- portant to the chronologist. ; UnpER THE Fixst Division are discussed the day, the week, the month, the year and certain cy- cles used in computing the civil calendar and pre- paring the Almanac; the origin, history, nature, character, and various sub-divisions of each, espe- cially among the ancients. UNDER THE SECOND DIVISION the methods of as- certaining the dates or the time when they occurred; the actual dates of some important eras whose epochs are disputed; the most important epochs and eras which have been employed at different times and by different nations, including those which are still in use; and the actual dates in the most prominent events in classical chronology. UNDER THE THIED AND LAST DIVISION are consid- ered the epochs and eras of leas importance; a sketch of the chronology of India and China; the princi- ples of the art of phasnenseipr tet as applied to dates, and the different systems of art which have been propounded. author believes that a work successfully exe- cuted upon this plan, though it may not contain very much that is new, cannot but be useful and profitable not only to the reading public, but also to the youth of our country, in the uisition of classical and historical learning ; and ry will be the study of this age; it must always be the study of thoughtful pating a app catego pina andiognage = as our 00 TEP I eethe contributions of North Carolina, and of the Southern States of the Union generally, to American literature, have heretofore been law, and for the most rt, worthless.

Under such ereameaniee ieee is, with some confidence, pre- sented for public nage. ; The author proposes to publish by subscription.— The cost of publication will be fifteen hundred dol- lars, ormore. The book contains about two hun- dred and fifty 12 mo. pages. It will be brought out in the best style of one of our best American pub- lishers, as to type, and binding.

In this we need assistauce. We are not alone, sutficient for these things. Our brethreu must help us in every way; by contributions from theirown stores of thought and study; by zealous co-operation ina common eause, for the benefit ofall ; by extending our eireulation throughout all our borders, and thus giving us the means and oppurtunity of performing well the work to which we have consecrate all that we have, and all we hope for on the earth.

In ourown State, there are very many Sabbath Schools, and from the best information. we have, the scholarship is large and increasing, and jt is from them we look for that patronage which is n to improve and keep floating, this native stan- dard which we propose for their benefit. It is not for pecuniary gain that the ‘‘BANNER,” is established ; it has for its aim higher ob- jects, and if we succeed in our enterprise, it will be to us in after life a source of great sat- isfaction to know that, in our boyhood days, we gave a helping hand to Sunday Schools, the preparatory Schools for places of high trust and position, in the work of our Heaven- ly Father. Its name sufficiently indicates the object which isto control its editorial conduct. There ‘is necessity however for the remark that it will not be denominational, but alike open to all the Sabbath Schools of this State for con- | trilutions, in which there is no spice of secta- | rlanism. The “BANNYR” will he issued monthly on | handsome type, clear white paper and will | contain fourteen columns reading matter, quar I tu length. : | We trust suificient encouragement may be | oilured to justify the undertaking.

Yet such has not been the case. We have nota paper in the State devoted in the slightest degree to her material interests. With the exception of an editorial in this paper ar- guing in favor of the establishment of Work Houses, and one in the Raleigh Sentinel on the subject of Rail Roads, we do not remember to have seen any articles devoted to matters of State importance, unless it be the discussions in the New- bern papers on the subject of consolidating the N. C. and Atlantle R. R. Companies. This is not aa it should be. We would not advise the papers of the State to aban- don National politics entirely, but we would advise them to devote some time, also, to the material interests of the State—her works of internal improvement, the devel- opment of her vast and varied resources, dcc., &c. We do not profess to be a practical man, | but we intend in the future to devote at | least some of our time to those matters, aud treat of them to the best of our hum- ble ability.

In doing this, we shall not abandon pol- itics, but will continue to discnss such po- litical issues as may be presented from time to time, and to take such part in the polit- ical contests of the day as we may think proper. a Raleigh Correspondence. RALEIGH, May 25th, 1866. Hon. Lewts Hanes,—The short length of time which has elapsed since the meet- ing of the State Convention, and the want of an interchange of views with the mem- bers, will preclude your correspondent from furnishing much pabulum at present for your readers. The Convention organized on yesterday. Eighty-five members were present. Mr. Clark, of Craven, so soon as the body was organized, introduced a resolution, declaring that the objects for which the Convention had at first been brought into existence, having been accom- plished, to wit: the repeal of the Secession Ordinance, and the abolition of Slavery, that it ceased to have any further legal ex- istence; and of consequence ought to ad- Journ sine die. Mr. C. took the same grounds whieh were advocated by the Sen- tinela tew weeks since, but the Conven- tion to-day, by the decisive vote of 61 to 30, tabled the resolution. Mr. Phillips, of Orange, introduced aa ordinance ordering the election of delegates to a State Convention to assemble here in November, 1871, to amend the State Con- stitution in such a manner as the wishes of the people might then require, and to limit the present one to the transaction of such business as was now before it, not touch- ing In any way the present organic law of the State. The object of Mr. P. is to give @ quicwes to tho conntivational questions which are now, and have been since the first session, before the Convention—to have nothing to say about the basis of rep- rescatation, which has been more or less before the people for the past thirty years —to let our abominable system of appoin- ting magistrates remain as heretofore—to place no check upon the legislature as to the number to be appointed, and to silence all opposition to a change in the qualifica- tions of Senators and Commoners to the legislature. . Mr. Phillips thinks that al- though this Convention has an undoubted right to change the organic law of the State, yet the time is inopportune. He quotes the highest authority for this power, in the historical ease where William of Or- ange called together a Parliament, prior to his acceptance of the British throne, and whose acts were afterwards judicially rec- ognized as of paramount authority, altho’ not called in obedience to existing law. Whether the ordinance of Mr. Phillips will be adopted or not, I have not sufficient means of forming an opinion, but from the feeling manifested by a great many dele- gates with whom I have conversed, I do not believe the Convention will let this oe- tasion pass by, to amend our organic law in some parti ,and not throw them Upon @ body to assemble five years heuce. | © . $ ins" J UX _with remarkable unanimity, yielde Xe . q e a ES ACC Bx) Ji fg ots isd r yg iy the, Bia, é Np Ble heh ay, My a 4} : e & 7s " 24 bern atorial as yet to hear the first man it daiatis or even practicable to oppose the present incumbent, He will distance all competitors, and hence nobody is wil- ling to become a martyr to gratify the Ex- Governor’s (your readers well know whom I mean,) hatred of a successor.

Gentlemen of the Convention :—Since your adjournment last October, nothing has come to my knowledge, touching our position in reference to the Federal Gov- ernment, which is not a matter of public history. At your previous session, you made the amendments to the constitution and passed the ordinance believed to be necessary to complete reconciliation with the United States and our restoration to national fraternity. Although our people their assent to your action, and were ready, without any exception within my knowl- edge, to acknowledge their allegiance to the United States and to obey the laws and constitution thereof, we have been grievously disappointed by the rejection of our members from the Congress of the Nation. ‘This rejection has not been placed on the ground of any irregularity in their election or qualification. ‘The Congress recognises the existence of the State Gov- ernment to the extent of incorporating into the constitution of the United States our amendments made thereto; they continue to govern and tax us, without allowing us any participation in making the laws or imposing the national taxes. ‘The Congress has been sitting some five months, without prescribing any terms on which it is pro- posed to recognise our admission. We have elected men whom we believe to be 'as loyal as any men in the United States ; every one of whom labored to preserve the Union till hostiltties had actually com- menced, and every one of whom has re- newed or is ready to renew his oath of fi- delity tothe government of the United States. Whether any one of them could consci- entiously swear that he never aided or sym- | pathized with the rebellion, I do not know. | If no member can be received from the States lately in rebeilion, without taking the Congressional test oath, it will amount to our practieal disfranchisement. It was presumed, when you adjourned in October last, that, by this time, the Union would have been fully restored, or that Congress would have defined its policy of restoration. Neither event has occur- red. Neither the President nor Congress have made known any further requiremens. I have no information which warrants me in making any suggestions to you as to any further action which you may prop- erly take, tending to produce’ the desired harmony. Let us 80 act as to retain our self-respect —and to give our late enemies no just grounds for continued ill will against us. National prosperity cannot be restored un- til real reconciliation and concord shall be established. If bitterness is to be contin- ued, let all of us strive to co-operate with the President in his patriotic plans, and refrain from giving any just excuse for the continuance of such feeling, and hope that the day is not distant when the Northern people shall be satisfied that their distrust 4it ; CF ru: * £ = es ‘ wh it , wet i <6 a Pa sity £ me ey 5 4 re : I have say, he thought‘ before Monday next, when I will drop you | i * a . eA AT pe Sp The intended, until your call of yesterday, to submit any message whatever.

(From the Cin sinnati Uni mn.) l We are called upon this morning. to chronicle the warlicalass of a desparate ab- tempt at suiclde, which Sceanel in. this city on Friday last, by a beautiful young lady, a resident of St. Louis. Beautiful beyond description, her pe sonal attractions of the rarest excelleng she lacked but “the one thing needful’ fp make her all that heart could wish in th age of parsimoniusness and that was wealf She was poor. By dint of innate genig and perseverance, she had managed to b come a first-class dress maker, and wif her needle enabled to earn for herself, ay in a great measure .provided for the cor fort of her indigent parents. She was goof kind, and obedient to her father and moth er, and denied herself many of the luxurig of life that their declining years might'} brightened by the sunshine of comfort. Just blooming into womanhood, her—be ty was not long “to waste its sweetney upon the desert air.” Her charming sin plicity attracted the attention of a young man of respectable and: wealthy nt, An acquaintance was formed, and for first time in youth’s happy days the pretty maid began to feel love’s gentle influence. The noble young man loved her with all the burning fever of an honest heart, and was soon made acquainted with her pover- ty, as well as the circumstances surround- ing her poor but respectable parents. Happy were the moments of their sweet intercourse, and for some time the catrent of life’s blissful stream glided smoothly along, when, ‘without the knowledge of his proes and haughty parents, our young over offered his hand and heart. She re- ciprocated his ardent devotion, and ac- gladness. The day of their union was poet, and the happy young man stinted not his for the comfort of the betrothed of his fu- ture joys. The happy moments flew swift- ly by, and cheerfully the young maiden plied her busy needle in preparing for the event that was to seal her happiness forev- er. But, alas! a dark hour, frightened with baneful disappointments, broke in upon her sunshine of happiness. The’ aristocrat- ic parents of this noble youth learned of the conduct of their worthy son, of his at- tachment to this poor girl, and ‘to, their in- tense mottification, of his marriage engage- ment. — The proud father. was shocked beyon description. A stormy interview between him and his son ensued, during which bit- ter threats and dire objurations were bu- ried,against the young man‘ “who had thus debased himself and disgraced the noble name of his family by his association with, and intended alliance to, a poor dress-ma- ker.”’ ; The hearty mother argued her “objec- tions, and t to allure her son from his designs by calm persuasions and maternal advice ; but all in vain.

In consequence of the order of the Pres- ident of the United States, relieving the Provisional Governor, I entered on the | discharge of my duties of civil Governor, in conformity with your ordinance, on the the 28th December last. I had to encoun- ter some irregularities growing out of the transition. But, with the universal desire of the le to restore order, no serious difficulties have presented themselves in putting into action the machinery of civil government in the State.

Learning that the letter was a forgery, through diligent inquiry she ascertained that her lover had embarked for Cincinnati, and determined to seek him. On Wednesday last she arived in this city, and took rooms at the Henrie House, where she soon attracted the attention and unfeigned admiration of the guests. Her beautiful but pensive countenance, her la- dy-like deportment and gentle manner, her silent and marked taciturnity, were the ob- jects of wonder and surprise. She sought the city over, but could find nd@frace ofher lover; and driven to de- spair she determined to put an end to her miserable existence. Life no longer had charms for, her—all was a “fleeting show,” and afforded no pleasure to her broken and i+ . , wiivs Gis i ' | distracted heart. Slowly, sadly, but determinedly, she sought ihe river at the foot of Fifth street, then stepped on board a raft, walked to the outer end, knelt in silent prayer, and lunge sank beneath the waves of the hio. But it was not her lot to thus per- ish. God, in His infinite wisdom had oth- erwise decreed. he noise occasioned by the splash attracted the attention of a num- ber of workmen engaged close by. The ery was raised, and in a moment two stur- dy men plunged in and brought the almost lifeless form of the unfortunate girl to the shore. She was conveyed to the nearest .|house and a physician sent for, who suc- ceeded in restoring the would-be suicide to consciousness. She was conveyed to the Henrie House, where she received the kind attentions of Mr. Watson and his as- sistants, when she so far recovered as to return to her parents in St. Louis, which she did last evening. The letter published above, the cause of the misery, was found upon her person, and the circumstances connected with her sad fate we received from her own lips. Perchance this. article may seas the eye of the young man, who is doubtless still in this city.

FACTS vs. THEORIES. “Give mea place to rest my lever on,” says Achimedes, ‘‘and I will move the wold.” “Give ine pure and unadulterated drugs," says Medicus, of the olden time; “and! will cure disease.’’ In one sense, both of these learned pundits were the veriest charlatans. They kuew there was no place to rest their lever on, eith- er to move the world or cure disease. Me- chanism was in a backward state, and the medical profession was but another name for sorcery, and all the adjuncts of magic filters and charms of the “evil eye," &c. . But these latter days have borne unto us something mere than even superstition and its crew ever dreamt of in their maddest phil- osophy. In these days of practical science, | what was theory of yesterday is fact to-day, and all the old time notions become as bub- bles in the sun, and burst and break with ev- ery breath we draw. Let Archimedes shoulder his lever and we will find a resting place for it to move the world. Let mine ancient Medicus pant and toil no more for the drugs he so sorely needs, for we have them at our hand, ever ready to serve them at his beck. Refined in the laboratoay of Dr. Maggiel, the finest materials known in the medical pro- fession are obtainable by any one. His Bil- lious, Dyspeptic, and Diarrhea Pills stand un- | rivalled, and his Salve operates with magical effect upon burns, sealds, and all sures and ul- cers of the skin. In fact, we think MAGGIEL’s Pills and Salve are the wonder of thie century, and we are happy in the thought that inany others of our brethren of the craft agree with us. We would earnestly counsel that all families pro- vide themselves with Dr. Maggiel’s Prepara- tions at once, and keep them ready at hand, so as to use thein at the most opportune time onand as oceasion serves.— Valleyentinel. ] tam ly MAGGIEL’S FEVER AND AGUE CURE.

CIRCULAR : To THE PUBLIC: The undersigned has now ready for the press a vol- ume, the result of the lucubrations of many years, entitled a ‘Short Treatise on Chronology in General, and especially on Classical Chronology.’ The work a collection of dates and synchronistic tables. The the date of filing, or they will thereafter be | author's aim has been to prepare a “Born Book” of rejected, in the absence of satisfactory evi- ; Cronology, contaming Bbc eedipg “peucipies => and facts of that science. The FIRST PART treats of measuring time and ad- justing its various divisions; the sEconp of fixing dates of historical events and arranging them in or- der; and the THIRD, of miscellaneous matters im- portant to the chronologist. UnpDER THK First Division are discussed the day, the week, the month, the year and certain cy- cles used in computing the civil calendar and pre- paring the Almanac; the origin, history, nature, character, and various sub-divisions of each, espe- cially among the ancients. UNDER THE SECOND DIVISION the methods of as- certaining the dates or the time when they occurred; the actual dates of some important eras whose epochs are disputed; the most important epochs and eras which hate been employed at different times and by different nations, including those which are still im use; and the actual dates in the most prominent events in classical chronology. UNDER THE THIRD AND LAST DIVISION are consid- ered the epochs and eras of less importance; a sketch of the chronology of India and China; the princi- ples of the art of une raoe Day as Gs io to dates, and the different systems of that art which have been propounded. he author believes that a work successfully exe- . cuted ‘dpon this plan, though it may not contain very much that is new, cannot but be useful and profitable not only 4 thasending pubite, bet slap a historical learning ; and history will be the study of this age; it must always be the study of thoughtful men in times of revolution and great political chan- ges, such as our country is at present undergoing. The contributions of North Carolina, and of the Southern States of the Union generally, to American literature, have heretofore been law, and for the most pete worthless. A few works of fiction and some ugitive poems include our past efforts; and with the excellent Latin Grammar, and the edition of Cesar’s Commentaries, prepared for the press by Col. Bing- ham—works the very best of their character which have ever fallen under our observation, and which, under more favorable circumstances, will yet win for their author that high reputation in his profession which he merits—our contributions to useful litera- ture are of the very humblest character. Under such circumstances this book is, with some confidence, pre- sented for public patronage. The author proposes to publish by subscription .— The cost of publication will be fifteen hundred dol- lars, ormore. The book contains about two hun- dred and fifty 12 mo. pages. It will be brought out in the best style of one of sur best American pub- lishers, as to type, paper and binding. The cost of single copies delivered will be $2.50. Pereons desiring to subseribe can communicate with the undersigned at Raleigh, but subscription lists will be opened at various places of business in Raleigh and other towns in the Beate. Subscriptions will be required in cash as essential to the success of the enterprise. Editors who will give this Circular a few insertions and forward a copy of their pepe conteining it to the author, will be furnished with a copy of book. ; volume will be placed in the hands of the pub- lisher 48 soon-as the author's success is at all assured, and will be issued to subscribers a fewweeks there- E.

We quote from the letter of this distinguished Republican the fol- lowing statements : “The true reason of the persistent efforts of certain politicians of the radi- cal school to prevent the trial of Jeffer- son Davis before a civil tribunal is, that such a trial would make patent to the public the fact that in regard to the dos- trine of State rights, upon which Jeffer- son Davis justified secession and war against coercion by the General Gov ernment, they stand, by their previous record and expressed opinions, on éden- tically the same orm.” . “Chief Justice Chase, tiféfr great leader, together with Greeley, it is known, advised President Lincoln to let the Slave States go rather than resort to armed coercion, which was in violation of the State rights’ theory he had preach- ed all his life, from the case of Jones vs. Van Zant, in McLean’s reports in 1842, to the celebrated Oberlin fugitive slave rescue ee parte Bushnell, ex Pb Langston, 1@ 1859, reported in Ninth Ohio State Reports, when, as Governor of Ohio, iy the Attorney-General, C.

P immense convention # land, where's portion: were confined it jail.” =r ee) After describing the meeting, most talented Republican” (we lik cite good authority) proceeds’ to quote trom a.speech ma this e to 9 to the crowd by Mr. Chase, who was then Governor of Ohio, as published the next day to the Cleveland Herald. Mr, Chase said: “TT do not wish to say, nor is it proper ‘or you to say, whatthe decision of our court should be in the case. That is themselves to determine ; it is a matter between them, the people, and God.— ] will only say ‘what [ have frequently said before, that as long as the State of Ohio remains as 8 sovereignty, and 80 long as I am Obief Executive, the pro cess of her courts shall be executed.— The process of the United States courts must not be slighted or resisted, but so long I represent the sovereignty of our State courts shall uot be interfered with, but shall be,fully enforced..* * * When 1 am called upoa to act. [Immense applause.] _ In concluding, he had not given utler- ance to all-he wished to say, but what he had said he was willing to live by and to die by.” This speech was of course, censured by ‘hose whoowere in favor of execution the ‘ugitive @lave law. To which censure the Ohio State Journal, published at Colambusfand epeaking inbelalf of Gov- ornor Chase, replied as follows : “Ag for the carping criticism on Gov- «rnor Obase, we need only say he simply ieclared his determination to do his da- ‘y as Execntive. of the State of Ohio, viz: To see, the ‘judgment of the Su- ‘act, I will * ins that‘of the Supreme Court | 2?

The firet and chief characteristic of all sovereignty is its right to the allegiance and service of its citizens—~a right fandamental to all oth- er rights of the State, for on this ite very existeitce, in war or peace, continually depends. * * Any nation which has wholly surrendered the allegiance of its citizens or ‘its correlative incidental right to protect them while in its territo- rial limits, has in that very act abnegat- ed every attribate of sovereignty, and become the lvcal. dependency vf the power to which that allegiance’ and right has been ‘surrendered. But Ohio, thank God, is still a sovereign State, and has, therefore, never yielded this right— as she never could yield it—and still dresefves her sovereignty to the Federal or any other government. #% For it will not be questioned that the general guardianship of the citizen is confided, notto the i*ederal Government, but to the State alone.”—9 Ohio State L2eports . 2038, 104. : “As Georgia hung Graves and Tassels over the writ of error of this samo Sn- preme ard beneficent exanple.—-9 Ohio State p. 150.”. : “It collision ean be avoided only by striking down every safeguard with “which the Constitution has hedged abont he ‘liberty of the citizen, Ict collision #1 come—coine now.

That paper says: “The sum and and_ substance of the foregoing, from the Comercial, is that Jeff. Davis and Salmon P. Chase were on.the same political platform in 1860, and that the reason why Judgo Chase does not want totry Davis that their political views were identical in every respect—as, wo may add on oui own ac- count, were those of all other thinking men of the Republic.” SOMETILING FOR RADICALS TO THIN OF. Two facts announced in our columns to-day should set the Radicals thinking. Ast. Gov. Swann, of Maryland, (ditto ex Gov. Bradford,) has quit the disunion party, and ad- heres to the Union party of old. 2.

(Applanse.) He illustrated the policy of President Linculo, in the recommendation of Louisiana and Arkan- sas to admission in the Union, which hat been endorsed at the Baltimore Convention and by a majority of both Houses of Congress a year ago, to show that Mr. Johuson’s policy was not a new one, but an obedience to the wishes of the Ucion party.

OPW lt Nats OUR SUPERIOR COURT Was in Segsion last week, His Honor Judge Mitch- ell, presiding... The bar was pretty full, and busi- ness for lawyers. brisk—about the only live in which there is much doing. There were two cases of more than: ordinary interest sent up trom Ca- ‘barrus county to be tried hére, viz: two freedmen, charged with setting fire to, and burning the dwel- ling house of Mr. Ezekiel. Jolinson, in November last; and Jacob Blackwelder, charged with mur- dering his wife -by cutting her throat, in March last. The first case was" concluded on Thursday, and resulted in an acquital, though without satisfying what is undestood tp be the popular opinion iu Cabarrus. ; The trial of Jacob Blackwelder came up on Fri- day. It was a case involving the question of san- ity. The only two witnesses we heard examined had known the prisoner neatly all his life; and up to @ short time before the perpetration of the crime charged against him, (and the guilt of which he unhesitating acknowledged,) they had never known him to speak or do anything that they regarded as proceeding from insanity, Indeed, he was not regarded as insane by any offe until sume three or four weeks before the murder. About that time it began to be said he was crazy. On the mor ning of the murder he went to the house of a neighbor and relative, and asked for breakfast. On being asked why his wife had not given him breakfast, he said she wes dead—that he hail cat her throat, &e. This story was for a little while discredited ; but during the morning the report wae spread in the neighborhood and people gathered at his house lo see if it were true. He was in company with the first party that reached the house for this pur- aes They entered, and the horrid-spectacle was fore them.

On being asked why he did it, he said the devi) had got into Lim that morning. ,And iv a subse- quent account to others he is represented as saying that he expected to die soon himself, and wanted her to go before. When asked what he supposed would be done to him for it, he said he si posed he would be hung. The witnesses we Newel spéeuk of his demeanor in the presence of the corpse, rep resent him as acting and speaking withont any feeling of remorse. On being asked the questjgn direct, “are you not sorry you dit it?”—he Ma swered, he was sorry on account cf the children, There“were three little ones made motherless by the deed; aud bere being taken to prison he vequested one of his neighbors to look after them, and see they got good homes, The trial was progressing when our paper went to press Saturday afternoon. > oe - TUE PRESICENT AND MR.

When good Union men were suspicious of change iw the views of defeated rebels, and their support of the President's policy, be, from te beginning, rj -cted the iden that change was av- complished tor treasonaBle Pieposin, Recon struction is not needed, because the country, as constructed long since, has not been destrayed. What is necded is reconciliation between the Senatots of the United States now acting, and those who, being loyal, have been or may be elected bereatter from the Sonthern States. Ibe people could justly be accepted fellow citizens. The Sovthern States have fur the last four years been inerely disorganized; they are now organs ized, and nothing ix needed but conciliation. — The President's plan of reconstruction is, that so far and so fast as untepresented Suuthern States the occasion precluded the idea of thorough inves- tigation by the president of the voluminous and | general circamstantial proofs on file in the burean ; of military justice, Mr. Johnson had oceupied the | presidenual chair but a little over two weeks, when | Judge Holt’s report was presented to him, and he } was so burdened with official cares that Le could | not, if he bad been disposed, have thoroughly ex- | amined the testimony; nor was there probably | any neeessity for such scrutiny, for the custom has!

Fessenden, on account of his position as chairman of the Se~ nate branch-of the notorious fifteen, in- tended'to open debate on the measnre, but being mmwell he asked a delay until Wednesday. which of course was granted, The probabiliti are that discussion on the measure will last about ten days.— Several Jengthy legal arguments have been prepared for delivery, while stump speeches, calling for no concession to re- bels on any terms, may be looked for as a certainty. There is as much bitterness of feeling in the Senate as in the lower branch of Congress, and upon every oc- casion where there is an opportunity for oratorical disp'ay this bad blood shows itself. Itis not likely that General Howard will resign his position as Commissioner from the Commissioners now in the south investigating matters relative to the in- stitutiou over which he presides have not been in the least satisfactory ; but at the same time he hopes to prove the contra- ry to what has been officially reported b Stecdman. It is very probable that will be a hard business. It is not difficult to know how the President regards the Bu- reau. The concurrent resolution ed to- day by the House, which provides for the appointment of a committee to make a personal investigation into the operations of the Freedinen’s burean during its en- tire term, is intended as a set-off against the disclosures that have jnst been made.

LEWIS HANDS, Biitor. - Raleigti Correspondence. Raceica, Saturday eve., May 26. To-day, the Convention refused to ap- point a committee, directing them to report an ordinance authorizing the calling of a new Convention, to assemble in November 1871, for the purpose of amending the Constitution in such particulars as the peo- ple, through their delegates, may deem necessary. The object of the mover of this resolution, (Mr. Phillips, of Orange,) was to ascertain the sense of the Conven- tion, as to whether it would now act upon ordinances, introduced heretofore and at its present session, changing our organic law. He said his object in ascertaining the sense of the house was, that members might prepare to act upon the ordinances before them, if Constitutional amendments were to be entertained, or to adjourn all such questions to the new Convention here- after tg be called, and to adjourn at this time sime die. After some discussion, the Pa nail JA Whiem % se, neu AS a TiD fact that the pnvention will. be in séssion for at least two weeks yet. The all-absorbing question as to a change in the basis of representation is already eliciting a good deal of discussion amongst the members. An ordinance fixing the representation of the house upon the white basis, was introduced at the last session, and to day was made the special order for next Wednesday. The advocates of this measure think that as the negro has ceased to be property, he ought not to be counted in apportioning representatives in the low- er house, whilst its opponents say that we tax the negro, and to deny him represen- tstion is practically carrying out what we loudly condemn in the Federal Congress ; they further insist that we all agree that he shall be represented in the Federal Con- gress, while we exclude him from State representation—in other words, that the advocates of the white basis “blow hot and cold” at the same time.

Presbyterian. }-- Death of the Hon. George BH. Badger. The most brilliant intellect of the coun- try, for some three years past partiglly clouded by disease, has, in God’s provi- dence been extinguished by ‘death. The Hon. George Edmund Badger departed this life at his residence in Raleigh at mid- wey of Friday last. He was born in New- bern on the 17th of April, 1795, and was consequently a little more than 71 years of age. In boyhood he was entered as a student at Yale College, but did not com- plete the course of studies there for lack of pecuniary ability.” This’ was no eventual disadvantage to him, as all understand who knew his vast and thorough acquirements in all departments of knowledge, which he seemed to master almost by intuition. He was the rare mstanee of the man of letters, the jurist, the statesman and the theologian combined—in} all an origin us hatdcr oe knowledge. Coming to the Bar at s : early age, he at-opce took his pkare in the front rank of that préfession,;then more distinguished than now for great men, for it boasted of Gaston, John Stanly, Edward Graham, Iredell, Moses, Mordecai, Dun- can Cameron, Hogg, Ruffin, Archibald _Hendersen, Eccles, Joseph Wilson, and other eminent men. He was elected to the | Legislature from the. town of Newbern at | 21, and Judge of the Supreme Courts at 25. He held this latter position for only five years, but long enough to command a profound respect for the majesty of the Law, which had administered without fear, favor or affection. Many were the evidences of his impartial and upright judgments, perhaps the most conspicuous of which was the imposition of a heavy fine and impris- onment upon one of the wealthiest men in the State who had abused his office as a | Magistrate to wrong a poor free negro. Retiring from the Bench in 1825, he re- sumed the practice of the Law, and remain- ed at the head of the Profession till called iby Gen. Harrison, in 1861, toa place in his Cabinet as Seeretary of the Navy. On the death of Gen. Harrison, his successor, Mr. Tyler, having repudiated the princi- ples of the great Whig party which had elected him, Mr. Badger, with all his as- sociates in the Cabinet except Mr. Web- ster, resiyned his office in September, 1841. In 1846 he was elected tothe United States | Senate, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of Mr. Haywood, and in 1848 he was again elected and for a full term of six years, at the expiration of which, the Democratic party having gotten iuto power in the State, he wag succeeded by the Hon. Asa- Biggs. And this was the last political position which Mr. Badg- er filled, except.as a member of the State Convention. whieh, in May 1861, ° the Ordinance of Secession. In this Con- vention, which he entered to.aid the cause of Revolution, rendered necessary by Lin- coln’s Proclamation of war upon the South, he endeavored to prevent a recognition of the doctrine of secession, which he had al- ways denicd ; but being overruled by the majority, he united with everybody: of that period in the step which was taken. And he remained faithful to his pledge to the Contederacy. The Senate of the United States was the principle theatre of Mr. Badger’s fame. It might not have been so, however, if his creat forensic efforts had been delivered in large cities instead of obscure County Court Houses in North Carolina. Among hundreds of these, his arguments in a mur- der case in Granville, a slander case in Wake, and another murder case in Bladen, (removed from Cumberland, ) will never be forgotten by those who heard them. But no record of any of these exists, nor of his brilliant and political speeches in different parts of the State and in the Whig State Conventions, (witha single exception it is believed.) It is sad to think that with his cotemporary generation will dig even the memory of the grand displays of his geni- us, and cloquence, and erudition, in all of which one prime object was ever foremost in his view, viz: to illustrate and enforce those sacred principles of Justice, of Moral- ity, and of Religion, which his whole life illustrated and enforeed—for what he /pro- tessed he practiced. But his Senatorial speeches are preserv- ed in the records of the country. They are. purcly and rigidly statesmanlike and logic- al, The dignity of the place appears’ to have impressed him with a feeling that it would be improper to decorate them with the flowers of rhetoric of which he had so exhaustless a store ever at command, He stood there as a statesman, not as an ora- tor; as a logician, not as a rhetorician,— And he came to be universally regarded jn Washington as the most profound logician in that then great body, where such ‘mén as Clay, Webst:r, Calhoun, Pearce, Clay: ton, Mangum, Bell, Corwin, Douglas, Rev- erdy Johnson, Davis, Seward, Cass, Ber- rien, Buchanan and Benton, sat by his side. ‘lo have this admitted of any man born and raised in and representing North Carolina, (to whose merit it is seldom that justice is accorded,) is sufficient evidence of its unquestionable truth. Perhaps one of the most remarkable instances of his in- fluence, and of the conclusiveness of his arguments, was furnished by his speech on the bill to create the office of Lieuten- ant General, for the purpose of putting Col. Benton at the head of the armies in Mexico, to supersede Generals Scott and '‘laylor—a measuge which President Polk and Col. Benton and the Democratic party generally had deeply at heart. In the his- tory of Congress for the last fifty years there is not probably another {nstance in whieh, in high party times, a Presidential recommendation of great importance has = # | most decided opinion upon all public qu been decided a mn each. Ye viren Mr. Badger’ elosed jealm and #0- jected. respect and admiration, that they did not regard to him what was never done bem or since, passed unanimously a regolaton of regret on learning that the Legiplature of North Carolina had failed to centinne him in its service, and that he was no long-, er to be associated with them in the duty. career of greatness and prosperity. Seda tors of all parties, who could AN pont nothing else, with many of whom he bad differed radically upon public questioos, by the loss of such a gen and genial associate, such an enlighi ator and excellent gentleman. In accord-. ‘ance with the father’s instructions, young Mr. Pearce wrote to Mr. Badger to apprize him of the melancholy event.” A year or two ago the writer of this hasty anid most inadequte tribute saw that letter and solic- ited a copy. He will not ask 80 much or your space, Mr. Editor, as the whole would require, but cannot refrain from copying a sentence or two: “You do not need me to assure you (writes the son) of the warm friendshi which my father always felt for you. He preserved this feeling of regard undimin- ished through a most tedious and afilicted illness, and only a few. daye before his death requested me to write to you alter he should be gone, and tell you that y@u gentleman. Although I have never known you myself. I know from frequent cdpi- versations with my father that he held among the truest and most valued of Bis friends, and the truest and most ables:of his public associates.” t How happily, in a few words, does ‘his describe Mr. Badger: “A friend and c@n- tleman,” “the truest and most valued,” the purest and ablest.’ The secret of his influence, apart fam his talent and genius, was apparent tot who knew Mr. Badger. Whilst entertsfn- ing and always frankly expressing the tions, he ever did so with a considerate E. gard for the personal feelings of those who differed from him. He assailed no man, but only measures. ‘The writer remembers with admiration this trait in the charadfer of his deceased friend, and regrets. that it is so seldom imitated, and especially that his pated oo ead has not.comforted to it.) > fice seeker, that he avoided “all occasions or appearance: of electioneering. He be- lieved that it was his duty te serve his country when required, but that his coun- try had no right to require him to.démean himself by engaging-in a scramble for the loaves and fishes. His merits .were . such that he could afford to act upon the princi- ple that office was “neither to be sought uor declined.” ! There were two traits of character for which Mr. Badger was pre-eminently dis- tinguished, to which we have not alluded,’ viz: his generous and elegant hospitality, and his delightful conversational powers, which faé excelled those of any other per- son’ whom it has been our good fortune to know. On the 2d of January 1863, Mr. Bad- ger was stricken with paralysis, which al- tected one side of his body and in some measure his utterance. Since his partial} recovery from that attack he has enjoyed the conversation and reading of his family and friends, always acutely sensible of the points, and taking part to some extent in conversation, but unable to make any ex- tended and concealed argument, usually for want of some single. word which he could not readily recall to memory. the 2d inst. he had another attack, and on the 10th still another, under which he sunk in afew hours. In allusion to this want of a word to express his ideas, one of the eminent men of the State thus wrote toa impassioned argument the ae ister ‘the truth that only “the But there was a still stronger eveaee has 4 a century he of his influence in the 8. and a Christian gentleman.” and integrity of oe a 8 an 8 contrast in the ef conducting a powerful nation upon M4). all agreed that they and the country were bod roduced Wthe”inténsity of his feelings regard t yer) war then raging; and the writer can Well believe i hi sg eve it, for he remembers haggarg 2 nd condition of te and mina in whith he found Mr. B. : po Ge peor ir t 1851, whilst the . wasumt nt peril, and the and patriotic Legislator. eb buoyant andainetic eittits which fi Int _A few days after his f tio mt) 1, < ; on ae ie rab wi enrouncing the deatwet that emindnt Sen-{ the eountry was suppose to be- saved. — had his dying remembrance as a friend agd | pie adieaeain and ol friend, and how much proud in prouder of he noble truths he uttered.

My only hope for the country is in the next fall elections at the North. Should the President’s policy be sustained in these, all may yet be well. If not, to me, the prospect of the future for this country, North and South, is gloomy indeed. But from what I saw and heard in Washington, my hopes for a change next fall were greatly stimulated. I am still hopeful in this view, but far from being sanguine. Constitutional liberty will, in my opinion, in a great measure, depend upon the result.” ee Aw Irish Story.—Two Irishmen en- gaged in peddling packages of linen, bought an old mule to aid in carrying the burdens. One would ride awhile, then the other, ring the bales of linen on the mule.— One day the Irishman who was on foot got close up to the heels of his muleship, when he received a kick on one of his shins. To ‘hurled it at the mule, but struck his com- anion on the back of the head. Seeing what he had done he stopped and began groan and rub his shin. ‘The one on mule turned and asked what was the mat- ter. “The bloody creathur kicked me,” was the reply. “Be jabers he’s did the same thing to me on the back of the head,” said the other. oa membet of his family, a few weeks after his firstattack: =~ : . “You do hot know, my dear madam, how much pleasure it afforded me to learn ride i your letter of your father’s con- tinued improvement, and of the hope of his complete restoration to health.

In the fall of 1860, ata social party at Gov.

The qualities of Beauregard’s mind, so far as they reveal themselves in conversa- tion sta to justify the estimate of those who hold him to have been among the foremost of our enemies. If his career did not prove nis title to take rank asa first-class military man, it showed him to be at least a first-rate second-class man.— One readily sees in him a wonderfully clear, swift, far-glancing mind—a man who on the field of battle would be splendid in emergencies, master in a most perfect de- gree of his faculties, and of the elements with which he had to deal. In stragetic : grasp he had, perhaps, no superior in the field; and the clearness, precision and comprehensive synthesis with which, in conversation with us, ran over the salient features of his campaigns, showed an in- tellect tempered to a fine edge. That he has the qualities to make a really great commander was not made manifest by the war. And, indeed, in the composition of this type of man of moral are quite as re- uisite as the intellectual .

The jurat of an affidavit, taken before a Justice of the Peace, Notary Public. or other officer duly authorized to take affidas vita, is held to be a certificate, and subject to a stamp duty of five cents, except when taken in suits or Jegal proceedings.

CIRCULAR : To THE PUBLIC: The undersigned has now ready for the press a vol- ume, the result of the lucubratious of many years, entitled a “Short Treatise on Chronology in Geueral, and especially on Classical Chronology.” The work is not intended to be a chronological chart. nor yet a collection of dates and synchronistic tables. ‘Ihe author’s aim has been to prepare a * Horn Book” of Chronology, containing the leading principles, laws and facts of that science. The FIRST PART treats of measuring time and ad- justing its various divisions: the skcoND of finins dates of historical events and arranging them in or- | der; and the THIRD, of miscellaneuvus Matters lu | portant to the chronologist. UNDER THE First Divison are discussed thie day, the week, the month, the year and certain cy- cles used in computing the civil calendar and pre- paring the Almanac; the origin, history, nature, character, and various sub-divisiuns of cach, espe- cially among the ancients. UNDER THE SECOND DIVISION the methods of as- certaining the dates or the time when they occurred: the actual dates of some important eras whose epochs are disputed; the most important epochs and eras which have becn employed at different times and by different nations, including those which are still in use; and the actual dates in the most prominent | events in classical chronology. UNDER THE THIRD AND LAST DIVISION are consid- ered the epochs and eras of lesa importance: a sketch | of the chronology of India and China; the princi- | ples of the artof mnemotechyny as applied to dates, and the differentsystems of that art which havebeen , propounded. | The author believes that a work successfully exe- | | much that is new, cannot but be useful and profitable not only to the reading public, but also to the youth of our country, in the acquisition of classical and historical learning ; and history will be the study of this age; it must always be the study of thoughtful men in times of revolution ena great political chan- ges, sach as our country is at present undergoing. The contributions of North Carolina, and of the Southern States of the Union generally, to American literature, have/yheretofore been law, and for the most part, worthless. A few works of fiction and some fugitive poems include our past efforts; and with the excellent Latin Grammar, and the edition of Casar’s Commentaries, prepared for the press by Col. Bing- ham—works the very best of their character which have ever fallen under our observation, and which, under more favorable circumstances, will yet win for their author that high reputation in his profession | which he merits—our contributions to useful litera- | ture are of the very humblest character. Under such | circumstances this book is, with some confidence, pre- sented for public patronage. Evidence of mnster in the case of , ment in money being | quarter and two thirds, 4c. cuted upon this plan, though it may notcontaimvery | Eph Rice AA drop let- ters must also be prepaid. The only letters on which payment is not demanded, are those ad- dressed to the President; er Vice-President or members of Congress, and letters an official busi ness to the chiefs ofthe Executive Departments of the Governmens, the heads of bureaus, and chief clerks, and others invested with the frank- ing privilege.

Mr. Mel ver, from the committee appoin- ted to inquire and report as to the expedi- ency of establishing a Penitentiary, sub- mitted a report to the effect, that in view of the recent action of the General Assem- bly, and the finances of the State, it would be inexpedient at this time to take any ac- tion in the premises. The Committee asked to be discharged. The report was concurred in. Mr, Moore, of Wake, from the commit- tee appointed to collate and re-write the Constitution of the State, reported the — add much to the interest of our paper dur- ing the session fof the Couventinn, which we suppose will last for some two or thiree nhs De me * ik was'n fact called for ‘a Plartic and that..purpose has been accom- ~ plished, yet it ‘is not, in a strict sense, JSunctus officio; for the reason that its pow- ers extend to many objects besides those for which it was especially called. It is, in fact, the representative of the reserved sovereign powers of the State, and its powers are only limited by the prohibitions, express or implied, upon the States in the Federal Constitution. It is vested with all the legitimate powers of any other Convention that ever assembled in the State; and, such being the case, it should, now that it is in session, proceed to make the necessary amendments to our State Constitution. The whole instrument should be re-written, as some of the phraseology of it is imperfect. It is at present in many detached parts, and should be consolidated or codified. of 1776 as still remains in forec, the amend- ments of 1835, the Free Suffrage amend- ment, and all other amendments whieh have been made since that time, or which it is now proper to make, should be em-| bodied into one compact instrument. Apart from these necessary alterations and amend- ments to our State Constitution, we con- fess that we can see but little for the Con- vention to do at present. We are opposed to its aseuming general legislative powers. We thi. k it should legislate only in cases where there may be an urgent necessity for it. ~~ “We have not a paper in the State de- voted in the slightest degree to her mate- rlal interests. With the exception of an editorial in this r arguing in favor of the establishinent Gt Work” Houses, and one in the Raleigh Sentinel on the subject of Railroads, we do not remember to have seen any articles devoted to matters of State importance, unless it be the édiseus- sions in the Newbern papers on the sub- ject of consolidating the N.C. and Atlan- tic’R.

But the Old North State is right in the main. The press, generally, and ourselves among lhem, have been too inattentive to State interests, and have devoted too much space and time to the unprofitable consid- eration of Federal polities and relations. It is our wish and esign to improve in this respect—to pay more regard to our industrial and internal condition. Our people, while still anxious for restoration and reconciliation, have ceased, under the pressure of Radieal injustice, to feel that intense interest in national affairs which’ they formerly did.— Sentinel. ‘Upon reflection, we see that we have done some injustice to our cotemporary of the Sentinel, and perhaps others, as well as ourdélfi We wrote! hastily ‘aid from memory, but we remember the articles to which the Sentinel refers, as well as some written by ourself and the Charlotte Times, in favor of the introduction of capital and labor into the country.

Our acquiesence in the spolia- tion of Denmark had-kept us out of war for a time, but he believed the coming dan- ger would be far greater than that which we had then avoided. Lord Russell vindicated the conduct of the Govetnmeut, observing that they had not laid down any rule not to interfere when English interests were not affected, but they had ie felt long and careful deliberation should precede any decision of adopting the last argument of war. Lord Derby imputed to the Govern- ment that in the Schleswig-Holstein war, they had approved the cause of Denmark, but had nevertheless allowed the German powers to carry out their intentions. Lord Russell replied that the Govern- ment had held that Germany had at first grounds for complaint against Denmark, but when the latter was prepared to com- ply with the demands which were made, the subsequent war became unjust. After a few words from Lord Hardwicke, in reply to whom Lord Clarendon explain- ed that the Government had taken steps to ascertain whether any offer of friendly intervention would be acceptable, but meet- ing with no encouragement, these offets were not pressed, the subject was allowed to drop. = From the National Intelligencer. THE recent references to the trial of Mr. | are have called public attention to this subjegt, which, very: natu: in _arlarge ie aire Whe pebbe ata: a ak The indictment in. the usual form for treason has been found by the grand jury, in the United S:ates Cina Court, at Norfolk. Mr. Davis is indicted under the act of 1790, under which the penalty, on convic- tion, is death. He could have ‘been indicted under the act of July 31, 1861, fora seditious con- spiracy, the punishment of which is fine, not over $5,000, and imprisonment, with or without hard labor, not over six years. One of the most important points is the drawing of the petit jury, who are charged with the trial of the prisoner. The jury is to be drawn aceording to lot, or otherwise, according to the mode agrepy i the Btate’ for selecting juries r the highest courts of law. ‘The number of jurors to be'sninmoned is left to the dis- cretion of the court, as at common law. The aét of July 16, 1862, repeals s0 much of the act of 1789 as requires, in cases punishable with death, that twelve petit jurors be sammoned from the county where the offenee was committed. Under the act of June 17, 1862, no per- son is allowed to sit on the jury who was of panryr sf ‘with the re- 8 an act of controlling im- portance, because it insures that the trial shall be before. a loyal jury. Mr. Davis cannot be tried by any of his confederates. His fate will rest entirely with his'politieat opponent. The jury must be unanimous, or there can be no verdict. This is ‘thé invariable rule of the common law, and “has existed time whereof the memory of man runneth not to the con K The presiding judge can rule authorita- tively on questions of evidence as they may arise in the progress of the rial, but as the jury always, in eriminal cases, re- turn a general verdict of guilty or not guil- ty, they are practically the judges. of the law as well as the fact, and there is no ap- peal from their decision. There has never been any- this principle in the common that in cases of libel it had determined by the Court of ing’s Bench that the only question for the considera- tion of the jury, in criminal prosecutions for libel, was the fact of alk ee and the truth of the inuendoes, and that tho ¢eourt alone was com t to determine whether the subject of the publication was or was not a libel. And it was for this ruling of Lord Mansfield that the celebrat- ed Junius #0 bitterly attacked Lord Mans- field.

A further provision of the Constitution might perhaps also, in the event of a disa- of the prisoner—that one which sets forth as follows: “Nor shall any person be sub- ject, for the same offence, to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb.” ‘The meaning of this rule is, that a de- fendant is in legal jeopardy the moment a sags jury is charged with the decision of is‘case. But though there has been some difference of opinion on the point, it may be assumed that when the jury are dis- charged from the further anc ion of the case, because of their inability At one time in England, where the jury could not agree on a capital case, the judge, instead of discharging them at the end of the term, had them carted round the eircuit with him. ploded.

The only point made by the counsel for the defense in this case was, that the defendant was insane at the time he committed the deed, and therefore not responsible, and conse- quently not guilty. They admitted that if. he was sane then he was guilty, as there could be no question about the killing. The case, we learn, was a very interest- rol twenty cents ‘apiece, and not 4 cent a.” “Cyrus, you are crasy," replied John. “Why, see here,” showing 4 fine lot of brooms, “is an article a great deal. hetter than y which was, .true]—which I am retailing at twelve and a half cents apiece,” (whieh was not true by seven and a half cents.} “Don’t care for that,” answered Cyrus; “your brooms are cheap enough, but you can’t have mine for less than sweety pr anyhow ;” and pretending to be more than half , shouldered his brooms and started for the door. ; The merchant, getting nervous over the loss of a good customer, and fearing that he might go to another store and never return, said : “Bee here, Cyrus, hold on awhile. If I give you twenty cents for your brooms, you will not object to take the price of them out in goods ?”’ “No, I don’t care if I do,” replied. Oy- rus. “Well, as you are an old customer, I will allow you twenty cents apiece for this lot. Let me see—twenty-four times a ty makes just four hundred and eighty cents. What kind of goods will pin, sat Cyrus 1” any difference to you what sort of goods I take, does it?” “O, no, not at all—not at all,” said the merchant. “ Well, then, as it don’t make any dif- ference, I will take the amount in them brooms of yours, at twelve and a half cents apiece. Let me see, four dollars and eighty cents will get thirty brooms and tea cents over; don’t make much difference, John, about the ten cents, but as you are a right clever fellow, I believe I'll take the change in terbacker.”’ When Cyrus went out of the door with his brooms aid “terbacker,” John was seized with a scrious breaking out at the of Drs. Whitehead, Jones, and Gibson spoken of as exhibiting much knowledge of the science of Metaphysics. This morning, the counsel for the de- | fence moved for a new trial and a venia de | novo, which motion was overruled by the | Court.

In our own State, there are very many Sabbath Schools, and from the best information we have, the scholarship is large and increasing, and it is from them we bok for that patronage which is ni to improve and keep Hoating, this native stan- dard which we propose for their benefit. It is not for pecuniary gain that the “BANNER,” is established ; it has for its aim higher ob- jects, and if we succeed in our enterprise it will be to us in after life a source of great sat- isfaction to know that, in our boyhood days, we gave a helping hand to Sunday Schools, the preparatory Schools for places of high tgust and position, in the work of our Heaven- ly Father. Its name sufficiently indicates the object which is to control its editorial conduet. There is necessity however for the remark that it will not be denominational, but alike open to all the Sabbath Schools of this State for con- tributions, in which there is no spice of secta- rianism. The “BANNER” will be issued monthly on handsome type, clear white paper and will contain fourteen columns reading matter, quar- to length.

Another case of a simi- lar kind has recently come to light in this Btate. The investigation was made by Judge Brooks, whose evidence cannot. be impeached by any Union man. But will give the facts in the case, from the Raleigh Sentinel, The Sentinel SAYS: “We have, within a few days past, come into possession of'a fact, which illustrates the whole matier, and exposes the unseru- pulous character of these slanderers. Re- cently, the President of the United States wrote to Gov. Worth, stating that he had | received a petition signed by a large num- | ber of citizens of Camden, praying for pro- | tection against the persecution of which they.wefs the victims. The petition fur- ther alleged that these same men were be- ing prosecnted in the Courts, and that it was impossible for them to secure justice. The President requested Gov, Worth to institute an investigation into the matter, and to repoit the facts at Washington. Gov. Worth, accordingly, wrote to Judge Brooks and Col, Ferebee, authorizing those gentlemen to make full enquiry into the complaints of those individuals. The lat- ter received the commission just ax he was | upon the eve of leaving for this City, and | too late for action, but wrote to J udge Brooks, requesting him to make the re- quired investigation. Judge Brooks did 80, promptly, fairly and thoroughly. Upon an inspection of the records of the courta of Camden county, he found that only feo of the number had been in any way before those courts—and those two had been in- dicted, the one for larceny and the other Jor Sornication and adultery ! Now, as it is alleged by the Standard, and others, that such men as these have been prosecuted for acts committod during the war, in the service of the country, and because they were Union men, we leave it to the world to judge whether the Govern- ment employed them in any such acts as those for which the se ercatures were victed ! As our old friend, Mr. Caldwell, of Burke, has uttered some dismal Jeremaids upon the floor of the Convontion upon the same geneal subject, we takh the liberty of call- ing his attention to the facts in this case, as embodied in the report of Judge Brooks to the Governor. We are sure that we need not illustrate the subject by any comment.of our own. ‘ . we ' con- ee ee - MISTAKEN,—We sep that our cotempora- ry of the Newbern Times does vur Raleigh Correspondent the honor to copy one of hig letters, and says that he takes vurself to be | the correspondent, as we are a member of | the Conyention.

Yestesday the committee on Revisal | extend thie tir es ston, Furches, McKay, McCorkle, and Henry ; the Convention came tq no action upon the proposed amendment before an jjournment, Your correspondent was satisfied from the character of this discu:s sion that a spirit of iqnism, sometimes even insinuates itself ‘into grave .political bodies. The proposition to clothe magis- trates, out of court, with the summary w er of acting on misdemeaners generally, is in the eyes of many who are opposed to rad icalism in every form, a dangerous innova- tio, fraught with incalculable mischief.— The lawyers say that the words misde- meanor, comprehends a very | number of offenses—some of a high eal, and to turn these all over to irresponsible and of- tentimes ignorant magistrates, would prove that political science was but little consult- ed by our grave Legislature. ‘To illustrate its practical workings—suppose a man should commit an outrageous assault or ma- licious mischief, or publish the most infa- mous libel, all he would have'to do/Would be to hunt ap a magi b o Ww vas unde is cage. Jnstice would:beodmeg where. oftestimes inhocence woud regely no protection, and guilty offenders coul atone for crime by the payment of a few dollars. I am glad to say that your dis- tinguished townsman, Hon. N. Bo den, in his remarks, favors no such whgledale sur- render of offences to those irresponsible Courts. He favors the establishment of a Court where minor offences may be disposed of without the aid of a jury, provided it can be done constitutionally. Mr. Moore fivors the same course. The great and only argument against trial by jury for slight offences, as yet ad- vanced, is that our Superior Courts have too much of their time taken up by such cases; that weightier matters have to be excluded, &c. Now, it occurs to your correspondent that the error does not lie in jury trials, but in our Judiciary system, ‘Two Superior Courta a year will not an- swer the purpose. Establish three; let one of these be a court of general jail de- livery, where nothing but violations of the criminal law shall be entertained. Give to the County Courts the same Jurisdiction they have heretofore exercised, and we will hear but little more about the “law's delay.” Whenever there is a departure from. the old landmarks, and a disposition to over- ride principles wrenched originally from | the hands of British monarchs, and firmly secured in Magna Charta, aud made the organic law of every courtry on earth where the common law prevails, it is time to stop and ask, Cui bono? And, unless the necessity for the change is very great, | it is well enough to let well enough alone. | Any system of legislation whieh enables crime to be atoned for on a cheap basis, will never operate to lessen its commission; but omethe other hand will éncburage men, who desire to gratify their bad passions, | not to be deterred in theirdpurpose. Caldwell, of Guilford, introduced an or- dinance prohibiting the State from borro~ ing money at a greater rate of interest tha. 8X per ceutum; as the receat Legi repealed the penalty for taking more than this per centage, and authorized the legal- ity of 8 per cent. loans, I doubt the pro- priety of Mr. C.’s ordinance. Hunan na- ture prompts every one to invest capital where it will yield the largest return, and for the least expenditure of labor. Caldwell, of Burke, introdueed an ordi- nance to extend the provisions of an act passed by the last Legislature, authorizing the Governor to furnish artificial limbs for Confederate soldiers from this State ia the late war, to the soldiers from our State who lost their limbs in the Union armies. The Federal government has amply pro- vided, by bounties, pensions, land war- rants, and “ Palmer’s artificial limbs,” for all of her own soldiers; and some of the ‘so called" IT know of think it hard for a mother to expend her money upon a son who stabbed her to the heart, But moth- ers are proverbial for forgiveness; and I reckon the old lady will receive into her embraces her undutiful offspring, as the “Rebels” used to call the North Carolinians “who wore the blue.” Mr. Moore, of Wake, has introduced an ordinance to repeal the proviso of an act of the late legislature, excluding negro testimony in cases where the negro is in- terested, until the Freedmen’s Bureau is removed. ‘The “nig” is a hard institution, but something must be done for him; and, as we have vhe assurance of the Freed. men’s Bureau, and the President's promise, that when negro testimony is received in our courts in cases where he is interested, that all offences, by black and white, shall be turned over to the civil authorities, your correspondent inclines to the opinion that it 18 best to adopt Mr. Moore's amendment, Everybody knows the proclivity of Sambo for prevarication, This has always been the characteristic of slavey in every coun- try.

The debate took a wide range. ‘Lhe real and avowed advocates of the | | ancudment revealed the kiad of tribunals | ‘they desire the Legislaturg to create, be- |fore which all offences included under the term misdemeanors may be tried.

One of the opponents of the proposed amendment, said the amead- , ment ought to be entitled, “An amendment to article 9th of the Bill of Rights, so as | to eucourage misdemeanors, and to enable | ees of the law to pervert the proper jadministration of justice.” The detate | Was of a very able and interesting ehame- | ter, more go than any other which has og- | curred during the present session. ‘I'hose who advocated the proposed amendment ; were Messrs.

The Convention resumed the considera- tion of the amended Constitution, the ques- tion recurring on the amendment offered by Mr. Caldwell, of Guilford, to section 9, ar- ticle 1st. of the Declaration of Rights. Mr. Moore, of Wake, still approved the to the terms in which the amendment should be made. He preferred the ques- | tion to be passed over tur the present. - Mr. Mebane offered the following amend- ment asa substitute for the amendment pending, viz: “lhe Legislature may, how- ever, provide other modes of trial, with the | right of appeal, for misdemeanors.” | Mr. Caldwell, of Guilford, accepted the | proposed substitute, and addressed the Con- | vention in its favor. | Mr. Eaton opposed the amendment. in any shape. It proposed to allow the Gen- | eral Assembly to deprive citizens of the | right of trial by jury in case of misdemean- | or, The term misdemeanors embraced a | large class of offences, many of which are of the gravest character—including all | known to the law, with the exception of capital felonies ; perjury, subordination of rjury, mayhem, assault with intent to! ill or commit rape, bigamy, larceny, gam- | ing, were all misdemeanors, How then should this jurisdiction (proposed to be conferred on a single justice,) be defined or restricted! ‘he term trivial misdemean- | ors was very vague—was not susceptible of satisfactory definition. Mr. E. then ad- verted to the irresponsibility of the propos- ed ‘tribunals and their liability to be influ- enced by improper considerations, to the prejudice of the poor and friendless. Mr. Phillips said that the scetion pro- posed to be amended guaranteed only a} persgual right,—a right which, under the | ecision of the Supreme Court, a man could | never waive. It secured the sacred right | of obtaining expensive justice through a! cumbrous and complicated machinery. Ad- verting to the annoyance, delay and ex- pense, ssa aed upon the existing law requiring trial b injury in all cases of mis- demeanor, Mr. P. said that the Recorder of the city of London would dispose of more cases in a few moments than a coun- ty court could in a year. If this rule of jury trial prevailed in large com- munities, many cases would not be reached before the defendants died of old age. The amendment was still further dis- cussed, Messrs. Dick, Brown, of Caswell, Conigland, Boyden and Moore, of Wake, and McCorkle, opposing its adoption. The question recurring on the amend- ment as amended, the following substitute was offered by Moore of Wake, viz : “Provided, nevertheless, that Courts may be established and held in cities and incor- rated towns, and at the Court Houses, in which may be tried, without the inter. vention of grand and petit juries, as shall be prescribed by law, all misdemeanors ex- cept such whereof the punishment may be corporal, other than im risonment, when- ever the accused shall elect to be 80 tried. Provided, that in all cases where the part may be imprisoned or fined above fifty dol- lars, may appeal to any Court having ju- risdiction of the case.” Pending this amendment, a°communica- tion was received from his Excellency, the Governor, relative to the Geological Sur- vey, State title to certain Swam Lands, &c., which, on motion of Mr. es of Wake, was referred to a select committee. The Convention resumed the unfinished business. The question reeurring on the amend- ment, offered by Mr. Moore, of Wake, to the amendment before pending, on motion of Mr. Logan, the Covention adjourned un- | til 10 o’clock to-morrow. [The Reporter was made to say, in yes- ian fa report, that Mr. Walkup opposed the object proposed in the amendment of Mr. Caldwell, of Guilford, to see. 9 art.

Beataville Female Seminary and ° ‘Wakkin College.” Yapury ‘Cotzxcx, N.C., \ May 28th, 1866. . Mr. Editor :As 1 perceive, by: read- ing your.‘ Qid North State,” which ip just- 4 rything brough ‘to your notice calculated to promote,the eauge of edycation. 1 have thought ‘that jt would afford you pleasure to recéive'some account of the interesting | and highly entertaining exhibition which | was held here on Thursday evening last, to mark the elose of the recent session of | Yadkin College and Beataville Female | Seminary. These two institutions, now supplied Q 4 bad ‘veg nes a ,end contemplated by the amendment, but | with experienced and efficient teachers, are | | had arrived at no satisfactory conclusion aa | about a mile a part, cach occupying an airy | and healthy location on the Yadkin river; seventeen miles from Salisbury. | The males of the one, and the females | of the other institution hold no intercourse , during the session; and the former have | no opportunity of sceing the latter, except | in the congregation at church, and occa- sionally, perhaps if attended by their ac- | complished teacher, Prof. Hege, they be permitted as spectators, to witness the sci- | entice debates of the students when open t» the public. | But at the close of the reeent session, | Mr. Hege relaxed his rigid rule of seclu- | sion, and allowed the young ladicx of the Seminary, (waiting on them himself,) to , accept an invitation from the students to | assixt them in preparing an exhibition of... tableaux, musical performances, and other | pleasing entertainments to be presented to the public, in the intervals between their orations and other school exercises, And to add to the interest of the oceasion, each female pupil present was.prevailed on to repeat the beautiful composition which she had prepared for her own examination at the Seminary. Thus jointly, by the two | institutions, was created and / presented to | a large and highly gratified audience, for | three or four consecutive hours, & highly pleasing, amusing, and iustractive variety. The students, in making preparations and in their exhibitions, were favored with the assistance of Maj. Clay and his brother Taylor, the sons of Henry Walser, Exq., who, though they are not now students, cheerfully gave their co-operation and val. uable assistance. There had been erected an clevated and commodious stage, richly carpeted and | gracefully curtained and ormamented with { garlands of fragrant flowers fancifully fes- | tooned and gaily decorated, making a har- monious combination displayed in perfect taste. The first thing exhibited was a splendid | representation of a “Faney Ball;” after | which a tall, fine looking youth possessing | an intelligant countenance, came before the | curtain and. delivered a powerfull address | in favor of “FEMALE EDUCATION.” Ag | the speaker retired, the curtain rose; and | thence forward it continued to rise and fall throughout the evening on a succession of orations, lectures, compositions, and tab- leaux so. skillfully arranged, ornamented, managed, and acted, as to produce the im- pression that animation had been infused into the paintings of the most successful artists. In the intervals betwoeu the tableau— exhibitions, which varied, from the inex- pressibly comic to the most striking and sometimes solemn scenes, now would appear a young lady tastefully arrayed to cat to the audience her composition on science or literature, morality or religion, folly or fashion, comedy or tragedy, abounding with beautiful figures rhetorically expressed, and chaste as the dreams of Diana; and then a young gentleman would come forward to deliver an oration, dignified, lofty, and grand, or perhaps a leeture gliding along in a vein of quiet humor, or flahsing with Hehe wit, but pointed and instructive, illustrating some principle in science, or conveying wholesome admoattion in morals, Thus rapidly passed the time until a very late hour in the night, the tableau represen- tations, orations, Icctures, compositions, &c., having amounted to nearly fifty differ- ent exhibitions. All who were present, having been amused and great] y gratified, seemed to regret that the entertainment was over. Competent judges present confidently expressed the opinion that these two insti- tutions now present as strong claims to an extensive patronage as any other place of learning in this or any other State; and that parents and guardians owe it to them- seves and their eons and daughters, to make inquiry at the proper source before | they o¥erlook the educational facilities aud other‘edvantages now offered by Yadkin College and Beatavila Seminary.

J must bind my hair with phe myrtle bough, And gei it with buds of white, And drive this blush from my burning brow, For sombgdy’ll come to-night : And, while his eye shall discern a grace In the braid and the folded flower, He must not find in my tell-tale face, The spell of his wondr>us power. I must don the robe which he fondly calls A cloud of enchanting light, And sit where the yellow moonlight falls, For somebody’ll come to-night; And while the robe and the place shall seem But the veriest freak of chance, "Tis sweet to know that his eye will beam With a tenderer, happier glance. ’T was thus I sung when the years were few That jayon my girlish head, And all the flowers that in fancy grew Were tied with a golden thread. And somebody came, and the whispers there— I cannot repeat them quite; But I knew my soul went up in prayer, And somebody’s here to-night. I blush no more at the whispered vow, Nor sigh in the soft moonlight; My robe has a tint of amber now, And I sit by the anthracite; And the locks that vied with glossy wren, Have passed to the silver gray ; Bat the love that decked them with flow- ers then Is the holier love to-day. | cnemmeememmmnsiemiemnieememeinieieniemneememreeteneed In 1857, Mrs. Margaret Strange, of this city, and relict of the late Hor.

When killing time came, they wished to divide the meat. ‘Uhe Yankee was very anious to divide so that he could get both hind quarters, and per- suaded the Frenchman that the way to di- vide was to cut it across the back. ‘The Frenchman agreed to it, on condition that the Yankee would turn his back, and take chojce of the pieces after it was cut in two. The Yankee turned his back accordingly. Frenchman—Vich will you have; ze piece vid ze tail on, or ze piece vidout ze tail on ? Yankee—The piece with the taii on.

The committce on salaries and fees re- ported the present rates unequal, and submitted an ordinance regulating the same. Mr. Dockery, from the committee to whom was referred the ordinance abol ishing imprisonment for debt, reported adversejy thereon. The committee.to whom was refered the ordinance regulating interest, recon mended its rejection. Mr. Winburn reported back the ordi- nance concerning tha rights of citizens to fish in the navagable streams and oth- er waters, in the State, with amends ments; when it was ordered to be print- ed.

Bitten by a Mad Dog.—On last Sat- urday afternoon two little children—a girl and a boy—the former a child of Mr. Stokes, and the latter of Mr. Smootch, were bitten, on Upper Union, by a mad dog. We have twice or thrice warned the authorities of the danger of do rowling unmuzzled through our streots in the warm season, and called their at- tention to the propriety of adopting mea- sures to remedy it; but, to their discred- it be it spoken, it availed nothing. We have nothing else to say in relation to it. —Norfolk Virginian. Notice to North Carolina Cotton Ship- pers.—A great deal of inconvenience and expense is incurred by our North Caroli na cotton planters, because of their neg- lect of or non-acquaintance with the rev- enue Jaws.

We kuow that rents must come down, and those whe own houses would do well to reduce their prices.to-#! reasonable standard before the necessities of the times compel them to take such rates as will not meet taxes and the expensés) of repairs. Revul- sions are generally from one,extreme to the other, and let landlords beware of tho fate they are pre- paring for themselyes. They are driving capital and labour from us to other localities, and when the day of retribution come, all men, except the suffer- ing culprits, will say that the punishment is well deserved. And these remarks apply with as great, or even greater, force to Salisbury than to the city of Rich- mond. Rénts may not be as high here asin Rich- mond, nor ought they to be. The reasons are ob- vious enough to business men. It is enough for up to know that rents are in alarming disproportion to the profits on trade and industry, and that one or the other must give way. Shall trade and in- dustry be banished from the town, or will rents ield to them the needful encouragement to remain? ‘apital and labor can pack up in a night and take their everlasting departure to a more remuveratiye region of country, leaving exhorbitant renters in mute amaze, and wishing for a tenant at any price. Shall they do it? is the interesting question io be solved. We have reason to believe that the holders of property in: an important neighboring town have already duly weighed this subject, and are wisely shaping their policy in reference to the futare per- manent welfare of the town. It may be so here, also,—hope it is—but as yet have heard nothing of it. Wecommend it to them in all earoestness as worthy of their serious and early attention, not ooly in reference to the next year but to the pre- sent. Have you a tenant who is evidently embar- rassed by the high rent which he incurred at a mo- ment of great expectations, when trade was opening with alluring but deceptive promise? That there ars such cases here we doubt not. What will youdo with him? Make him come to the scribe? Per- haps it is equal to one-fifth, one-fourth, one-third, or even one-half the sale value of the property— It may be as much as the property originally cost you. Will you call on him regularly at the end of each monta or quarter, and take up the rent with- out caring whether it ruins him or not? Will you, in the face of these hard times, affect surprise and disappointment if he can’t raise the moncy ? It would be better for all to take a practical and far-reaching view of this subject at once, and for holders of property to take the lead in showing their appreciation of the difficulty by magnanimous- ly reducing figures to the point of endurance. The North Carolina State Convention, now in session, have under consideration several proposi- tions of considerable importance. Among them is one for the sale of the Western Railroad to some company who will engage to complete the Road to its terminus in Tennessee, eounecting it with the roads of that State. It is argued that it would be better for the State to do this than to continue to operate it in its present unfinished condition at a heavy expense per annum, the state of the country precluding the idea of enlarging the State debt and taxing the people to taise a sufficiept sum to finish it.— Another proposition, ‘‘for the relief of the peo- ple,” is to suspend the collection of taxes until the crops have been harvested.—A nother, providing for the election of a Lieut. Governor.—A resolution declaring what bas been done, and appointing a committee to inquire what is necessary to be done, in order to restore the State to the Union. [It is reported the members have talked of resolving the Convention into “ committee of the whole,” and go to Washingtou to prosecute this inquiry. Of course they would “send for persons and papers.”}]——An ordinance to prevent pay nent of County war debts was referred to war debt committee. [If it passes, where will be any greater wrong in repudiating all State debts, old as well as new. And if the State may repudiate why may not the people? We skall see how this thing will work out. An evil exam- ple is quickly followed.]—An ordinance to restrict debts contracted by the State to 6 per cent interest. —An ordinance to change the basis of representa- tion, &, , ‘0 Commenting on the passage of the bill in the lower House of Congress to continue the Freed- men’s Bureau in the south, the Richmond Examin- er very truthfully remarks—we expected nothing better from Thad. Stevens and his party. The more that the South is outraged and impoverished by any measure, the more eagerly do Stevens and bis fellows insist on it. * * ‘Our hope is that the Senate—a moderate body still, compared with the House—may defeat the bill, and let the Bureau ex- pire under its present limitation. ener Ch sons §9™ A usion meeting was held at a cross-roads in Wake county, last week. The fifth resolutio re- commends “ Gov. Holden, or some other good loyal mad, as a candidate for Governor of the State at the next election. Gov. Holden is popular in Wash- ington and at the North, where we need friends, and withal he is @ good and true loyal man.— Therefore he will suit beth North and th,” &o. That depends on which part of his record you take. If that he made for the south be offered to the north, it would ruin him and his influence there. If his record for the north be offered to the south, it would have a Acer | else than the fragrance of Pots to nvgpoe e believe the “ Goy.” was before people last sammer on this same appeal. Bat ee chose honest old Jonathan Worth. If Gov. Holden ‘don’t believe they were in earnest, let him come out and try it over again. ———00 Judge Nelson, of the New-York Supreme Court, has lately delivered a decision in the case of a pris- oner in the Albany Penitentiary, that the trial of a civilian in time of poace by a court martial is le gal, and the conviction void. Persistent kindness will melt a heart of stone, and produce kindness in retura. Try it on your children—in the family—every where. It will certainly triumph over the most obdurate heart.

Scott was out on Saturday last, at West Point, aud showed no signs of his early demise.— On Sunday he began failing fast, though the phy- sicians did not He was entirely of his death, though he lost his voice two hours before. He recognized the Chaplain of the ten minutes before he died, and clasped his hand, The President has announced, “with profound Sorrow, to the people of the United States, the death of Winfield Scott, Lieutenant General of the army,” and directed all the department offices of the Government to be clcsed on the day which shall be set apart for his funeral.

In ourown State, there are very many Sabbath Schools, and from the best information we have, the scholarship is large and iucreasing, and it is from them we look for that patronage which is necessary to improve and keep floating, this native stan- dard which we propose for their benefit. It is not for ey gain that the “BANNER,” is established ; it has for its aim higher ob- jects, and if we succeed in our enterprise, it will be to us in after life a source of great sat- isfaction to know that, in our boyhood days, we gave a helping hand to Sunday Schools, the preparatory Schools for places of high trust and position, in the work of our Heaven- ly Father. Its name sufficiently indicates the object which is to control its editorial conduct. There is necessity however for the remark that it will not be denominational, but alike open to all the Sabbath Schools of this State for eon- tributions, in which there is no spice of secta- rianism. The “BANNER” will be issued monthly on: handsome type, clear white paper and will contain fourteen columns reading matter, quar- to length.

LUEWiIs HANES, HBditor. eae E> We surrender much of our space to- day to the letters of Gerrit Smith to Chief Justice Chase, and our Raleigh correspon- dent, both of which, we doubt not, will prove more interesting to our readers than any thing we could have written. We are glad to see that there are some men of in- telligence at the North, who have acted with the Republican party, who take a correct view of the present condition of things. Gerrit Smith, we believe, like Henry Ward Beecher, was an abolitionist, but apart from his mania on that subject, he has always been regarded as an honest man. He takes the same view of the late _war that we have always taken, that what- ever may have been its origin, it was a great civil war in which belligerent rights have been awarded to both parties as hay- ing established governments de facto and that the mere adherence to, and support of section relative to the qualification of the Governor; the old constitution requires a residence of five years. Mr. L.’s amend- ment was to extend the time to ten years, which was tabled, by a vote of sixty-two to thirty-three. In my last letter, or the'‘one before the last, your correspondent called the atten- tion of his readers to the phraseology of the resolution authorizing the appointment of seven Commissioners fo to Wash- ington, and confer with the President and Congress as to what more must be done by us to complete restoration. The commit- tee to whom this resolution was referred, reported a substitute for the original to-day. The report goes on to declare what has been done, &c., and recommends the. appoint- ment of seven commissioners to proceed to Washington, and confer with the authori- ties as to what more must be done &c. Your readers will doubtless think that this expression will require the commis- sioners to confer with the Federal Con- gress, a8 well as the President before their { mission, will have been completed. The resolution passed its first reading, and I do not think will be taken up until it is known what will be done in the Senate, on Mr. Howard’s amendment} to the third’ section & government de facto does ite treason, and that consequently an adjust- ment should be upon the basis of the law of nations as far as practicable. His letter will be read with interest. ———_~- DEBATBS = enn CONVEN It will be seen by reference to the letter of our Raleigh Correspondent, that Ed- ward Conigland, Esq., proposes to publish the debates of the present State Conven- tio both at the last and the present ses- sion provided he reeeives sufficient encour- agement tojustify him in it.

It is proverbial that no two women ever agree in sentiment about almost anything, and your correspondent was not aware till recent observations, arising from watching the proceedings of the Convention, that the same remark in a limited sense was appli- cable to the sterner, and what my Lord Coke calls the nobler sex; for the action of the Convention to-day has satisfied him, that there is much truth in the assertion. To-day, the Clerk commenced reading the Constitution, at article second, legisla- tive department, as reported by the com- mittee on revisal, when almost every sen- tence and word underwent the criticism of some member. It was understood that the Constitution, as reported, was on its second reading—when members who favor- ed a change of the basis of representation, arose and asked if it was the wish of the house, that amendments should be intro- duced, whereupon both sides agreed to pass over informally the sections relating to what shall constitute the basis of represen- tation in the Senate and House. he ad- vocates of the present basis and its 0 po- nents concur in the opinion that when the question does come up, an animated and exciting debate will arise ; hence the anxie- ty of both to put off the evil day. ‘The sections relating to the qualitications of ject before the Convention—to do this, he of the report of the committee on, récon~ ction... If we.send.on “commissioners, we ought to have some definite object in view—eitheg that we will agree to abide the action of Congress by such represen- tations as can be made, &c. Now, I trust, no one here or elsewhere, is prepared to accept the terms of the re- construction committee, even amended by the section proposed by Mr. Howard, and I presume, no one is rash enongh to sup- pose that a committee of gentlemen from our Convention, will be able to cause Con- gress to modify its views. If the commit- tee return and accomplish nothing, which I am confident of, will it not have a bad | eect upon the people of the State? They may be led to believe tht Congress in- tends to grant no terms to them, upon which they could live as freemen. It would seem Mr. Sumner is not pleas- ed with the report of the reconstruction committee, he had added a section requir- ing the government to secure the right of suffrage to the negro. The report of the committee was bad enough, but the adop- ‘tion of Mr. Sumner’s amendment, would make our huniliation complete. A good many persons here seem to think that the President will approve the action of Congress, if Mr. Howard’s amendment is adopted. I can’t yet bel, it; if we are driven to its acceptance, where will be the intelligence left in the State to enact for us National, State, or even Municipal, laws? For it excludes from holding any. national or State offices; any person who had heretofore been a member pf the Leg- islature, or held any executive, or judicial office ; under the last are included all mag- istrates. Your correspondent fears that nearly all the powers conferred upon vic- toys under the laws of nations, will be used by the Federal Congress, under the whole- some title of restoring us to rights in the | Uuion. Mr. Caldwell, of Guilford, moved to-day to strike out that section of the constitu- tion, which authorizes amendments to be made by the Legislature, so that a Conven- tion shall be the only mode of effeeting such an object, and Mr. Phillips entered his dis- sent to that clause of the constitution whieh declares, that no convention shall be oth- erwise called, than by the General Assem- bly, &c. So if the views of both of these gentlemen were entertained, how would we change the organic law? The only answer would be, that a bare majority of the peo- ple in an election held for this purpose, might accomplish it. Constitutions are not made for a day, and such barries and _ re- strictions should be thrown around the or- ganic law, as to prevent its being changed by every popular tumult, or sudden views of the people. Too much caution cannot be used to prevent too frequent changes of the organic law. Edward Conigland, Esq., delegate from Halifax, proposes to publish the debates of the Convention, at its former and this session, if he can procure three hundred and sixty subscribers. ‘lhe work will be comprised in one volume, and the price five dollars per copy. Your correspondent knows of no one so competent to make an interesting volume, which would be of great value and interest to every man of intelligence as Mr. C. A lawyer of de- servedly high standing, not only in his circuit, but all over the State, he proposes to collect in regular order the speeches of all the delegates delivered upon every sub- Senators and Commoners were also infor- = passed over. When the section was read, requiring the General Assembly to elect a Council of State, a short debate arose upon an amendment to strike out this clause, which was carried upon its sec- ond reading. It was insisted that the Council of State—as an advisory board to the Governor, was of little or no value. So if the convention should be of the same opinion upon its final reading, the Govern- or will have to assume the entire responsi- bility for his conduct, which your corres- pondent thinks he ought to do; for here- | tofore, one of our late Governors, if not | more, used to assemble his Council of State, and instead of recommending suit ble persons for judges, &c., to fill vacan- cies, he would send the uames of the differ- ent applicants and let the council make the selection. In the event the appointment or appointments were good ones, then the Governor got the credit of it; whereas if the appointment was a bad one, then it was not the Governor, but his Council of State who ought to be censured. This virtually perverted the object for which these gen- tlemen were appointed ag advisors to the Governor. It was originally intended that they should confirm or reject the appoint- ments, sent them by the Governor, and to lend him their advice. Mr. Logan moved an amendment to the a- will get the members to condense their. a es, and with the aid of ‘the journals of the convention and the reporters of the press, I feel assured, Mr. Conigland will prepare a work highly creditable to hirn- self, and of great value to every class of society. Everybody knows the value of | Elliott’s debates on the adoption of the Federal Constitution, and we all value highly the debates of the convention of 1835, In the latter the convention was limited to a few amendments of the organ- ic, Whilst in the present convention, it is unlimited, and a change of almost every section has been or will be proposed. I trust that all persons who desire the work will send on their names immediately to Mr. C., or to their representatives here.— The work will uot be published unless the number desired by Mr. C.can be procured. Your correspondent can only say that if his readers knew the ability and compe- tency of Mr. Conigland to make such a work as interesting, as your correspondent does, that he will have no difficulty in hav- ing treble, or quadruple, the number of subscribers, that he desires. For several days, your correspondent has predicted the taking up the “basis question,” if delayed, he feels inclined to give his readers a pen and ink sketch of some of the most prominent members of the Convention. , I see that Jefferson Davis is to be bro ] before you for trial.

I will advert to a few of the abun- Put and conclusive reasons which justify ese eminent writers on public law in Ming the ground in question, and which, merefore, justify our Governmant in hav- g virtually taken it. A. A mere insurrection or rebellion is to put down by municipal or local law. put when the strife rises into the dimen- mons and dignity of a civil war, the belig- fents are too numerons to be held as trai- . . Says Edmund Burke: .“1 do not mew the method of drawing up an indict- Bent against a whole people.” Nor is the Retion to treating them as traitors, in- of enemies in war, overcome by par- Ming all but a few. The stigma of trea- meshould not come upon any of them: ithe pardon but fastens it, instead of Mug it off.—By the way, the spirit of dis#mction between the many and the few— this holding.of only the prominent few re- sponsible, and reducing the many to mere cyphers. They who chose Davis and Ste- phens for office, were as responsible for their choice as were Davis and Stephens for submitting to it, As reasonable would it be to punish the chosen in the choosers as the choosers in the chosen. If we pun ish Davis and Stephens, consistency re- quires us to punish thousands: and, if we let the thousands go unpunished, consis. tency requires us to let Davis and Steph- ens: go unpunished. B. When vast numbers take a very im- portant step, it is not only reasonable to believe that they think they have much ground for it, but it is also reasonable to believe that they really have some ground for it. And in this connexion let me add, that if Government is entirely just toward all its subjects, it is hardly supposable that any considerable share of them will ever be found arrayed against it. 'That revolu- tions occur is to be ascribed mainly, and | well-nigh universally, to the injustice of | Government. Especially ready should be Republicans who, by force of their institu- tions and education, honor numbersinstead of worshiping the few, to blame Govern- ment rather than the people. Especially ready should they be to view with charity a however great wrong, where it is a whole people who are driven into it. C.

Vattel says : “But when a nation becomes divided in- to two parties absolutely independent, and no longer acknowledging a common supe- rior, the State is dissolved and the war between the two stands on thesame ground, in every respect, as a public war between two different nations. They decide their quarrel by arms, as two different nations weuld do.

But it will be claimed that the Davises and Lees should be, be- cause their cause is unjust.—Unavailing distinction! For the conqueror would have but to hold (and for this his own bare word would be his sufficient authority,) that his own cause is just and the enemy’s unjust—and then his way would be clear to go straight to hanging the Washingtons and Franklins. On th no. is Yhristendom one enlightened friend 0 man rights, who would not rejoice in the influence on the cause of human rights of your refusing to recognize the crime of treason in a popular rising, after it has reached the stage of civil war. For there is not one such who would fail to see in the refusal a proper respect and deference to numbers ; sr who would fail to see in it the making of revolution more easy ; and, what is far better, the making of govern- ments more studious of justice in order to prevent revolution.

A Oat-risH Story.—The following huge Cat-Fish story is from the Richmond Times, of yesterday : On Monday afternoon last, as a party of boys were out fishing in the river, oppo- sitethe Locks at Rockets, their attention was drawn to a sudden commotion in’ the water within a few feet of the old wreck of the steamer “West Point.” Immediately they made for the spot, determined to make an effort to capture the “monstnr of the deep,” and scarcely had the line been cast at the end of which was the largest size drum hook, before it was seized, and the holding it 1 par over Dart Te Wi, at vecCUvVe ie itis UEtoiUll, tL . ¥ the presence of mind sufficient to give the line a turn around the oarlock till assis- tance from his comrades could be procured.

Since no small share ofthe statesmen of the North and a large majority of the statesmen of the South, in- cluding even Jefferson and Madison, have believed that they saw this doctrine in the Constitution, it ts téte-to Bay that adequate pains were taken to shut it and all semb- lance of it out of the Constitution. Per- haps the streams of blood shed in this hor- rid War have not washed away, entirely and forever, this pernicious doctrine. Then let it be provided for, if not in a constitu- tional amendment, at least in the terms of “Reconstruction,” that it shall no more re- turn to curse us. And, at any rate, let none be punished for acting upon this doc- trine, until it shall have been made indis- putably certain to every reasonable mind. that the doctrine is not a part of the law of the land. I need say no more to show that it was a civil war in which the South became in- volved—and such a civil war, as brought her emphatically under the law of war. I need say no more to show that she can never come within the jurisdiction of your Court until the Peace-making power shall have restored the former sway of the Con- stitution. But for the sudden collapse and annihilation of the Confederacy, the Presi- dent and Senate would have been on our part the Peace-making power. Now, the w-making power of the Constitution is the whole of this Peace-making power. How great would be the sorrow of all the oppressed nations of Christendom, at learning that the Chief Justice of the Uni- In the article “Treason,” in the New} our eminent fellow-citizen, Dr. Lieber, are the following lines : “No one incurs the guilt of treason by of government de or government has but the right of a successful rebel, and loses 2d.

The North calls on the South to repent. But she needs to humble herself by the side of the South in a common repentance for common sins. The North has desolated and estranged the | South. Whether all this was or was not ne- cessary, it is nevertheless clear that her pres- ent work is to win and comfort and bless the South. Great as is this work, it can, howev- er be done. It is true, that the President has by his unwise policy, sadly demoralized the South. For that policy, by the way, he is not to be severely judged. It grew almost neces- sarily out-of hie unavoidable pro-slavery édu- cation. It is true, that though he found the South humiliated and sober, and in a state to respond to the claims of truth and reason, he has, by the pernicious expectations which he has excited in her, turned her quite away from listening to those claims, and turned her quite back again into her old habits of arrogance | and tyranny. Nevertheless, congress could have recovered her, by promptly announcing its unalterable policy of impartial justice to all her classes. Then would the south have respected Congress ; now she despises it. Then would Congress have converted the south ; now the south is converting congress. No ‘civil Rights Law, and no other substitute for entire justice, can save the south. No promise of protection to that portion of her people, whom it leaves stripped of their own power and na- tural right to protect themselves, can save her Without equal justice in all things to all her her people, she will go straight onto greater horrors than those she has emerged from— even to the horrors of a war of races. The ab- surd position of the President and one Member of the cabinet after another, and of one Mem-, ber of Congress after another, that the con- queror, though acknowledged to have the en- tire control of every thing else in the conquer- ed States, has only a partial control of suf- frage in them, will not suffice to cheat the blacks of the south, and least of all, their Great Avenger. ; I have safd we must deal with the South in the spirit of impartial justice. We must also deal with her in the spirit of great generosity and tlove. We mustclaim no indemnity earning : no power to| ted States holds that ina civil war, and for the past.

But the proposed plan would compel the rountry to pass through this extraordinary school of expe- rience and trial for a period of four years, during which, for all practical purposes, the people of the States lately in rebellion would be deprived of participation in the United States Government, and the North- ern States would be launched on the un- tried and dangerous experiment of govern- ing their fellow-citizens throughout the South as the inhabitants of conquered pro- vinces.

The paper has been 80 long es- tablished, and is so wiacly known as hardly to require any fo mai ex osition f its politieal character and prin- ciples.

Wile the Intelligencer advocates wivat the Edi ors con- scientiously believe to be right aod wise in tre administra- tin of public affai s, it always etrives to give a fa'r and ‘liberal support to those to whose hands is comm tted that administration; and as they hold a: independent press to be one of ‘he great safeguard: of libery, and th-re- fore claim the right of criticising the acts of the Govern- ment with fr-edom, they end-avor to discharge that duty with modera’ion, candor, and respect, botu for them- selves and those froin Whom they dilfer. * TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION: Daily «ditiou, Oue year....... as six moths : : three munths......... “. ~ v0 Tri-Weekly. edition, one years... 32.055. ese es 26 00 (Containing all the reading matter of the daily.) ri-Weekly edition, six muuths................ 330) s ss three monihs............ 2.05. 1 50 To any one transmitting us tne name: of ten subscri bers, accompanied witao tne money, we will seaod an ad- ditional copy gratis.

Revenue Stamps may be used indiscrims inately upon any of the matters or things enumerated in schedule B, except proprie- tary and playing card stamps, for which a special use has been provided. Postage stamps cannot be used in pay- ment of the duty chargeable on instruments it is the duty of the maker of an instrus ment to affix and cancel the stamp thereon. If he neglects to do so, the party for whom it is made, may stamp it before it is used; and if used after the 30th of July, 1864, aud used without a stamp, it cannot afters wards be effectually stamped. Any failure upon the part of the maker of an instru- ment to appropriately stamp it, renders him liable to a penaity of two hundred dol- lars. Suits are commenced in many States by other process than writ, viZ: summons, warrants, publication, petition, &c, in which cese these, as the original prozess, severally require stamps, Writs of seira facias are subject to stamp duty as original processes. The jurat of an affidavit, taken before 4 1.00 other officer duly authorized to take affidas vits, is held to be a certificate, and subject to a stamp duty of five cents, exeept when taken in suits or legal proceedings. Certificates of loan in which there shall appear any printed or written evidence of an amount of money to be paid on demand ot at any time designated, are subject to stamp duty as Promisory Notes. The assignment of a mortgage is subject to the same duty as that imposed upon the original instrument ; that is to say for every sum of five hundred dollars, or any fracs tional part thereof, of the amount secured by the mortbage, et time of its assignment there must be affixed a stamp or stamps, dex noting a duty of tive cents. When two or more persons join in the execution of an instrument, the stamps to which this instrument is liable under the law, may be affixed and cancelled by one of the parties. In conveyancees of real estate, the Jaw provides that the stamp affixed must anss wer to the value of the estate on interest conveyed, No stamp is required on any warrant of attorney accompanying a bond or note, when such bond or note has affixed there- to the stamp or stamps denoting the duty required, and whenever any bond or note is secured by mortgage, but one stamp dus ty is required on such papers, such stamp duty being the highest rates required for such instruments, or either of them. In value or denomination of the stamp affixed should be made upon the margin or in the acknowledgement of the instrument which is not stamped. Or PENSION AGENCY. The Government having resumed the ex- ecuttoa of the pension laws by establishing Pension Agencies in the Southern States, we Call the attention of those interested to an act of Congress authorizing the Secreta. ty of the Iateriurto drop from the pension rolls the names of pensioners in these States, and to the circular of the Commissioner of Pensions, giving the forms and instructions, in accordance with which application may be made for restoration to the rolls by those whosull claim the benefit of the pension laws.

On such proof, the certificate of two unappointed civ- il surgcons will be accepted in the same manner as heretofore: Fees paid to unap- pointed examining surgeons will be paid di- rectly by Pension Agents, under prescribed regulations, and not by the pensioner, (to be afterwards refunded,) as under the act of 1862 2.

Our people have but lately emerged from a igantic civil war, waged by and between Sections of a onca glorious Union, and more desolating to our particular section, than any- thing that has ever happened on this contin- ent, and it is to be hoped, than ever will again. While there is life there is hope, and not- withstanding the great changes wrought by the late civil war, we shall encourage the peo- ple to honesty, industry and economy, we shall take special pains to keep them posted with all beneficial improvements of the age, so that they may once more enjoy bountiful stores, prosperity and happiness. We shall from time to time publish such laws, both State and National, as our people are directly concerned in, and shall likewise use our influence to establish a sound circula- ting currency, so much needed at the present time. We shall be governed by principles and not men, for according to our honest conviction, the present condition of our country is owing to the abandonment of principles, we mean the abandonment of those fundamental prin- ciples upon which the Government of the Uni- ted States was reared. We shall favor and encourage the develop- ment of all our resources, Agricultural, Min- eral &c., and likewise such internal improve- ments as will most likely be beneficial to the Country, and especially the extension of the Wilmington, Charlottee and Rutherford Rail Road west. As to Politics we are True Conservatives, believing neither in the Fire Eaters of the South, nor the Radicals of the North, but in the Constitution, the Union, and the enforce- ment of all Constitutional laws, whether State or Federal, and a ready and willing obedience to the same.

The Undersigned, Themselves Members of the SabbatleSchool. propose to commenée in the city of Raleigh, on or about the lst of next ay; “THE SUNDAY SCHOOL BANNER.” And in the commencement of this little work of love, being boys, ourselves, may we not appeal to every Sunday School boy, and girl in North Carolina to come up promptly to aid the undertaking. In our own State, there are very many Sabbath Schools, and from the best information we have, the scholarship is large and increasing, and it is from them we look for that patronage which is necessary to improve and keep floating, this native stan- dard avhich we propose for their benefit. It is not for pega’ gain that the “BANNER,”’ is established ; it has for its aim higher ob- jects, and if we succeed in our enterprise, it will be to us in after life a source of great sat- isfaction to know that, in our boyhood days, we gave a helping hand to Sunday Schools, the preparatory Schools for places of high trust and position, in the work of our Heaven- ly Father. Its name sufficiently indicates the object which is to control its editorial conduct. There is necessity however for the remark that it will not be denominational, but alike open to all the Sabbath Schools of this State for con- tributions, in which there is no spice of secta- rianism. The ‘“‘BANNER” will be issued monthly on handsome type, clear white paper and will contain fourteen columns reading matter, quar- to length. We trust sufficient encour offered to justify the undertaking.

Nothing was done yesterday except the passage through the Convention of an or- dinance creating the office of Lieutenant Governor, and the ordinance regulating the age, citizenship, and property qualifi- cations of the Governor and Lieutenant Governor. ‘These officers are required, by the ordinance reported by the Committee on Reviaal, to be thirty years of age, na- tive citizens of the United States, residents of this State for five years, and to possess each a freehold in lands of two thousand dollars. An effort was made to strike out the word “native,” as it was not in the old Constitution, and savored too strongly of proscription; but it was no go, for the ouse refused, by a large majority, to strike out. Mr. Grissom moved to strike out the property qualifications required, which amendment gave rise to an animated and interesting debate, which was participated in by Messrs. Moore, McKay, of Harnett, and Caldwell, of Guilford, who ines the amendment, and Messrs. McUorkle, Grissom, and Furches, who fayored it, It nated all our ideas of constitutional liberty; that it was the great preserver of our rights; —had been so regarded by our forefathers, who had incorporated it into our organic law; that in times like these, radical changes ought not to be engrafted into the organic law, without the best evidences that they would be conducive to the public good.

One of the speakers insisted that this qualitica- tion for office was horrowed trom England, and was engrafted into our Constitution rior to our final ecparation from England. He then showed the diffcremve between the propriety of such a qualifigation in a gov- ernment congjsting of a mixttre of mon- archy and ar®tovracy, and such a govern- rhent aa was ours. He showed that by the frgmers who adopted the Federal Con- stitution it had beef rejected, as a qualifi- cation for office, and that out of thirty-six States, comprising the United States, thir- ty-two required no property qualification ; that legislation imthose States was as wise, wholesome, and conservative, as in the four States which required a property qual- ification, and that it in this State restricted the people‘in voting for officers to about one-sixth of the people of the State.

PUBLISHERS & PROPRIETORS. nel | AN EvENTFUL CAREER.—.\ Confeder- ate soldier has just returned home after an absence of more than four years in the ser- vice of his country. He joined the regi- ment of Colonel, or now Major-General Kershaw, of South Carolina; subsequent- ly changed his command, went to Virginia, was engaged in thirty-one battles, and one hundred and twenty-three skirmishes, not including the “ruws’’ on picket; was shot twice; returned to the field; and in the reneral fall while making his way to South Carolina, was cayturrd and paroled. A Contederate oflicer then pressed him and twenty others into service to guard a por- tion of the baggage train of Ex-President Davis, in which service he was captured a second time. Found with a violated pa- role in his pocket, he was carried, with his comrades, to Hilton Head, where they were tried for their lives. The military court failing to agree, they were sent to N. York and tried a second time, and five of their number ordered to be shot, which sentences were carried into execution.” ‘he remain- der were conveyed to a prison in Spring- field, [linois, within sight of the home of Mr. Lincoln, and there remained until the term of their confinement expired. He has had four wives, all of whom are dead, and by each wife a pair of twing, whom he had not seen until his return, since the begin- ning of the war, Such a man is an em- bodiment of history—civil, political, mili- tary and domestic, and certainly deserves a medal or a monument.—Columbia Caro- Jinian. eel MAGGIEL’S FEVER AND AGUE CURE.

March 20 141-+9, * CIRCULAR : ihe designs has now teady for the press a vol- ume, the of the lucubrations of many years, entitled a “Short Treatise on Chronology in General, and y.on Classical Chronology.” The work is not intended to be a chronological chart, nor yet a collection of dates and synchronistic tables. The author's aim has been to pre a * Horn Book” of Chronology, containing the leading principles, laws and facts of that science. The Fist pakr treats of measuring time and ad- justing its various divisions; the sEvOND of fixing dates of historical events and arranging them in or— der; and the THIED, of miscellaneous matters im- portant to the chrouologist. UNDER THE FiRsT DIVISION are discussed the day, the week, the month, the year and certain cy- cles used in computing the civil calendar and pre- paring the Almanac; the origin, histery, nature, character, and various sub-divisions of each, espe- cially among the ancients. UNDER THE SECOND DIVISION the methods of as- certaining the dates or the time when they occurred; the actual dates of some important eras whose epochs are disputed; the most important epochs and eras which have been employed at ditferent times and by different nations, iuciuding those which are still in use; and the actual dates in the most prominent events in classical chronology. UNDER THE THIRD AND LAST DIVISION are consid- ered the epochs and eras of less importance; a sketch of the chronology of India and China; the princi- ples of the art of mnemotechyny as applied to dates, and the different systems of that art which have been propounded. The author believes that a work successfully exe- cuted upon this plan, though it may not contain ve much that is new, cannot but be useful and protitab not only to the reading public, but also to the ee of our country; im the uisition of classica historical learning ; and history will be the study éf this age; it must always be the study of thoughtful mea in times of revolution and great political chaa- ges, such as our country is at present undergoing. The contributions of North Carolina, and ot the Southern States of the Union generally, to American literature, have heretofore been law, and for the most part, worthless. A few works of fiction and some fugitive poems include our past efforts; and with the excelleaé Latin Grammar, and the edition of Cxsars Commentaries, prepared for the press by Col. Bing- ham—works the very best of their character which have ever fallen under our observation, and kine? under more favorable circumstances, will yet win for their author that high reputation in his profession which he merits—our contributions to useful litera- tare are of the very hamblest character. Under such circumstances this book is, with some confidence, pre- sented for public patronage. The author proposes to publish by subscription. — The cost of publication will be fifteen hundred dol- lars, ormore. The book contains about two hun- dred and fifty 12 mo. pages. It will be brought out in the best style of one of our best American pub- lishers, as to type, paper and binding. The cost of single copies PA penal be $2.50. reons desiring to subscribe can communicate with the undersigned at Raleigh, but subscription lista will be opened at various places of business in Raleigh and other townsin the State. Subscriptions will be required in cash as essential to the success of the enterprise, Editors who will give this Circular a few insertions and forward a cepy of their papers containing it to the author, will be furnished with a copy of the book. votume will be placed in the hands of the puab- lisher as son as the author's success is at all assured, and will be issued to subscribers a fewweeks there- after : E.

Revenue Stumps may bé used indiscrims inately upon any of the matters or things enumerated in schedule B, except proprig. tary and playing card stamps, for which a special use has been provided. Postage stamps cannot be used in pay- ment of the duty chargeable on instruments It is the duty of the maker of an instru, ment to affix and cancel the stamp theredn, If he neglects to do so, the party for whom it is made, may stamp it before it is used; and if used after the 30th of July, 1864, and used without a stamp, it cannot after, wards be effectually stamped. Any failure upon the part of the maker of an instru- ment to appropriately stamp it, renders him liable to a penaity of two hundred dol- lars. Suits are commenced in many States by other process than writ, viz: summons, warrants, publication, petition, &c., in which case these, as the original process, severally require stamps, Writs of seira facias are subject to stamp duty as original processes. The jurat of an affidavit, taken before a Justice of the Peace, Notary Public. or other officer duly authorized to take affida, vits, is held to be.a certificate, and pubject to a stamip- duty of five’cénts, except when taken in suits or legal proceedings. Certificates of loan in which there shall appear any printed or written evidence of an amount of money to be paid on demand ot at any time designated, are subject to stamp duty as Promisory Notes. The assignment of a mortgage is subject to the same duty as that imposed upon the original instrument ; that is to say for every sun of five hundred dollars, or any fracs tional part thereof, of the amount secured by the mortbage, et time of its assionment there must be affixed a stamp or stamps, de- noting a duty of five cents. When two or more persons join in the execution of an instrument, the stamps to which this instrument is liable under the law, May be affixed and cancelled by one of the parties. In conveyances of real estate, the law provides that the stamp affixed must anss wer to the value of the estate on interest conveyed, No stamp is required on any warrant of attorney accompanying a bond or note, when such bond or note has affixed there- to the stamp or stamps denoting the duty required, and whenever any bond or note is secured by mortgage, br: one stamp dus ty is required on such papers, such stamp duty being the. highest rates required for such instruments, or either of them. In such a case a note or memorandum of the value or denomination of the stamp affixed should be made upon the margin or in the acknowledgement of the instrument which is not stamped. <i - PENSION AGENCY. ; The Government having resumed the ex- ecutcs of the pension laws by establishing we eall the ationtic it os interested to an act of Congress authorizing the Secreta- ry of the Iateriur to drop from the pension rolls the names of pensioners in these States. and to the circular of the Commissioner of Pensions, giving the forms and instructions, in accordance with which application may be made for restoration to the rolls by those who still claim the benefit of the pension laws.

With the passing away of old things, a new spirit of activity, energy and enterprise, has been infused into every department of secular thought and business. Why should not the Chareh, also, partake of the progressive ad- vancement? Why should she, of ail the agencies, brought to bear with such tremen- duous force upon the civilization of the pres- ent time, be inefficient, laggard and almost hopeless, in the working out of her own des- tiny ? To arouse the ehureh tothe importance and necessity of work ; of unceasing, restless, tire- less energy inthe service of her Master and Head ; thisshall be our first chiefest aim. In this we need assistance. We are not alone, sufficient for these things. Our brethren must help us in every way; by contributions from their own. stores of thought and study; by zealous ¢o-operation in a common cause, for the ponefit ofall ; by extending our circulation theeaghout all our borders, and thus giving us the means ud opportunity of performing well-the work to which we have consecrated aJi that we have, and all we hope for on the earth.

It | is not for eae gain that the “BANNER,” ‘is established ; it has for its aim higher eb- _jects, and if we succeed in’ our enterprise, it will be to us in after life a source of great sat- isfaction to know that, in our boyhood days, | we gave-a helping hand to Sunday Schools, | the preparatory Schools for places ef high trust and position, in the work of our Heaven- ly Father. . Its name sufficiently indicates the object: which isto control its editorial conduct. There is necessity however for the remark that it will not be denominational, but alike opefi to all the Sabbath Schools of this State for con- tributions, in which there is no spice of secta- rianism. The ‘‘BANNER” will be issued monthly on handsome type, clear white paper and will’ contain fourteen columns reading matter, quar- to length.

Our opin- ion is. however, that as he is still in the custody of the military authorities, he will soon be discharged on his parole by Presi- dent Johnson, or be admitted to bail. We now think it excecdingly doubtful whether he will ever be tricd at all. ae Raleigh Correspondence. Thursday evening, June 7. Judge Buxton introduced a resolution to-day, asking tlie appointment of Messrs. B. F’. Moore, Dockery, Boyden, Brown, and Thompson, 2s Commissioners to pro- ceed to Washington and confer with the President, as to what other and further legislation, as well as changes in our or- ganic law, were necessary, before our full restoration in the Union. The Judge made a speech in favor of his resolutions, and moved that the rules be suspended, and the resolutions be put upon their sec- ond reading. The house was unprepared for such action; although they were less objectionable chan those reported by the committee, who had reported in favor of the President of the Convention appoint- ing seven conimissioners to confer with the authorities at Washington, dc. After the conclusion of Judge Buxton’s speech, and the refusal of the house to take up his res- olutions, Mr. Dick arose, and moved that the report of the committee before referred to, be immediately taken up and acted on. Mr. Dick, in support of his motion, made a lengthy speech, urging the actual neces- sity of immediate action. He lauded Pres- ident Johnson; urged with much force and persuasion the obligations we were under to the President; and made such a speech as they who know the amiable delegate know he is capable of maktng. He, ia a word, pointed out as many advantages likely to follow from a mission to confer with the authorities at Washington as any other man could. Mr. Phillips followed Mr. Dick, in one of the best speeches your correspondeft has heard during the session. He desired te know what instructions these commis- sioners were to receive from the Conven- tion? what was the object of their mis- sion? and with whom were our commis- sioners to treat? He inferred from the language used in the resolution, that our commissioners must confer at least with the President and Congress. He had here- se that the United States al- ways spoke by legislation, and their re- cent legialatiew left no room to doubt what were the requirements of Congress in _re- ‘as ‘back into the Union. The t’s policy was not misunderstood. i bearing? And, supposing this ins Silloting. geacatent: were. elected WAM Te Ueeead 4 He had, in his veto messages, speeches, and in various other ways, declared that we had already done everything necessary, in his opinion, to a fulland complete res- toration to all our fortner political rights. Now, said Mr. Phillips, if our commission- ers go on, whose adyice are they to take? —the President’s or Congress? The for- mer has-the-helm of State in-hand: he it is who guides the rudder; and every indi- cation gives promise that our safety in pre- serving the vessel, consists in not desert- ing her deck, until there are the. most co- gent reasons for supposing that the Presi- dent would founder at sea, with all on board. How could our commiesioners ap- proach Congress? The Radicals had re- peatedly declared that we were nota Con- vention of the people of North Carolina— they had denounced the President for call- ing us into exisfence—had charged him With usurping rights belonging solely to Congress, and still regarded us as disloyal. How would Congress. treat our commis- ‘ing sioners? In what way would they get a difiealty es a POOdG Cou . ory Lh) wipe bates in Congress, as daily received by us There was an inseparable gulf between the President and Congress. The former we had repeatedly declared to be our friend, and why desert him now, and go over to his enemies? The President was satisfied with our loyalty. Congress was not so satisfied—it required action—plenary proof of loyalty; and our only mode for convinc- ing Congress of this was to ratify the pro- posed amendments to the Constitution of the United States. We must proscribe a larze portion of the wealth, intelligence, and patriotism of our own people from a participation in local, state, and national offices: and to accomplish this North Car- olina must apply its own poisonous potion to her own lips. It was a rule in whist, that when the player was in doubt, he ought to take the trick; but there was no such rule in politics. Whea in political doubt, the proper cours? was non action, silence; and, if circus:stances forbade our occupying a position of neutrality, not to desert our steadfast fiicud and go over to the enemy. Mr. P. iltustrated the impro- priety of rushing with Congress, to aid them in cutting down, with the sword, a large proportion of the iutelligence and patriotism of our State. It was not clear that the course Congress was pursuing for the purpose of riveting the bonds of Union amongst all the States, might not contain within its policy the germs of its own an- nihilation. Congress still regards us as rebels. Let us, therefore, retain a digni- fied silence; let our conduct speak for it- self; and above all things, never, by send- ing a commission to Congress, lead our noble President to believe we were about to desert hnn. " Your correspondent has given, from memory, a few of the points made by Mr. Phillips. His speech created a profound impression in the house, and your corre- spondent docs not believe that the Conven- tion will send on commissioners to Wash- ington, with the present light before them. Mr. Satterthwaite’s ordinance repealing the proviso contained in the 9th section of the act of the late legislature known as the IF'reedman’s Code, was carried, on its second reading to-day, by a vote of 83 to 13. This makes the negro competent as a witness in all cases now where he is inter- ested. Mr. Moore assured the Convention that Gen. Ruger would turn over to the civil authorities all matters relating to the ‘nig’ within his power. The trnth is, most of the prominent lawyers in the Con- vention entertain the opinion that the ne- gro, by reason of the action of the last Legislature, became a competent witness in all cases, and that it was necessary to repeal the proviso referred to, to limit his competency only to such cases wherein he is interested. An ordinance making it a capital offense for either a white man ora negro to be guilty of an assault with intent to commit a rape, came upon its second reading. This gave rise to much discussion, partici- pated in Messrs. Caldwell, of Burke, Boy- den. Moore, McKay, of Harnett, Conig- land, and Furches. No final vote was takcn. The reasons for and against the ordinance, your correspondent has not time nor space to give. He neglected to state 5 that the resolutions of Judge Buxton, and those of the Committee, looking to send- ing Commissioners to Washington, &c., were made the special order for to-morrow, at 2 0’clock. The matters referred to are all that was done to-day, of any import- ance. = ond CONGRESSIONAL RECON. STRUCTION AMENDMENT. The following is the caucus substitute for the Reconstruction Committee’s pro- posed constitutional amendment. It was offered by Mr. Howard, and it is under- stood that it will be passed : Resolved by the Senate and House of Rep- resentatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, (two-thirds of both houses concuzring.) ‘hat the following ar- ticle be proposed to the Legislatures of the several States as an amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which, when ratified by three fourths of said Leg- islatures, shall be valid as part of the Con- stitution, namely : ARTICLE---, SECTION 1. All persons born in the United States and subject to the jurisdlction thereof, are citizens of the United States, and of the States wherein they reside. No State shall make or en- foree any law which shall abridge the priv- ileges or immunities of citizens of the Uni- ted States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty or property with- out due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal pro- 2ction of the laws.

The obligations of the Uni- ted States, incurred in suppressing insur- rection, or in defence of the Union, or for payment of bounties or pensions incident thereto, shall remain inviolate. Sxcrion 5. Neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation ircurred in aid of insur- rection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for compensation for the loss or emancipation of any slave, but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be forever held illegal and void. Sxction 6. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legisla- tion, the provisions of this article. [It appears that the above amendments strike out section three of the House reso- lution, and insert sections three and four instead. Sections four and five of the House resolution are made five and six, and considerably altered.---Sections one and two are also altered. ] ——_——_~< > The Baltimore Relief Fund in North Carolina.

The $500 and $100 bonds are promised _by the engraver in a short while. The new bonds are six per cent untaxa- bles, dated Jannary Ist., 1866, running thirty-four years, with semi-annual cou- pons, payable, as is also the principal when dune, at the National Bank of the Republic in New York. Applicants must pay in the proper secu- rities or in currency the value of the bonds to cate of payment, including interests from July 1st., 1866, the law requiring they should be sold at par. | Coupons or past due bonds may be for- warded for exchange directly to me, (at the risk of the holder,) and bonds will be returned in exchange, provided some party ‘is authorized to sign receipts on my books. Por example, if a holder forwards his se- curities by Express, let him authorize the Express Company to receive, and receipt for the bonda. Where couponsare payable in New York, the bonds from which they are cut need not be forwarded; but only the coupons. | The same rile applies to coupons pay- able at Raleigh during the war, of the Wes- ‘tern Rail Road and the Western North | Carolina Rail Road, as I can identify them | without the bonds. Coupons of bonds issued to the Wil- mington, Charlotte and Rutherford Rail Road Company, July Ist., 1862, must be forwarded to this ofnce with the bonds for identification. Past due coupons, including those of date of April 1866, will be funded now,—the July and October 1866 coupons when due. Bonds past due bear interest from matu- rity, Which interest is fundable. Bonds of | Cape Fear and Deep River Navigation Company endorsed by the State, stand on 'the same footing as State bonds. Holders of registered bonds must for- ward a receipt for the interest due to last regular day of payment. The minor details of the exchange will _be arranged by correspondence. KEMP P. BATTLE.

Subtracting this sum from $56, | he will have $38.62 in gold. The same | rule applies to all the rates. NEW BOOKS. JUST PUBLISHED. BY Messrs. WM. B.

To THE PuBLic: The undersigned has now ready for thé press a vol: ume, the resuit of the lucubrations of many years, entitled a«** Short ‘Treatise on Chronology in General, and especially on Classical Chronology.” The work is not intended to be a chronological chart, nor yet C:RCULAB : a collection of dates and synchronistic tables. author's aim has been to prepare a ‘“‘ Horn Book” of, Chronology, containing the leading principles, laws and facts of that science. The FIRST PART treats of measuring time and ad- justing its various divisions; the SECOND of fixing dates of historical events and arrang ng them in or- der; and the THIRD, of miscellaneous matters im- portant to the chronologist. UNvER THE First Division are discussed the day, the week, the month, the year and certain cy- cles used in computing the civil calendar and pre- paring the Almanac; the origin, history, nature, character, and various sub-divisions of each, espe- cially aniong the ancients propounded. cutea lars, or more. though much that isnew, cannot but not only to the reading public, but also to the youth of our country, in the acquisition of classical and historical learning ; and history will be the study of this age; it must always be the study of thoughtful men in times of revolution and great political chan- ges, such as our country is at present undergoing. The contributions of North Carolina, and ot the Southern States of the Union generally, to American literature, have heretofore been law, and for the most part, worthless. A few works of fiction and some fugitive poems include our past efforts; and with the excellent Latin Grammar, and the edition of Cesar’s Commentaries, prepared for the press by ol.

The author proposes to publish by subscription.— The cost of publication will be fifteen hundred dol- The book contains about two hun- dred and fifty 12 mo. pages. It will be brought out in the best style of one of our best American pub- lishers, as to type, paper and binding.

UNDER THE THIRD AND LAST DIVISION are consid- ered the epdchs and eras of les3 importance; a sketch of the chronology of India, and China; the princi- ples of the art of mnemotechyny as applied to and the different systems of that art whi The author believes that a work successfully exe- ‘a this. % may nutcontam 7) be useful and profitable single copies delivered will be $2.50.

Mr. Moore introduced an ordinance to amend the charters of the Radisil Gold Mining pe ek and Union Minin Company. The rules were sus pene y an amendment adopted and nance passed its several readings. A resolution removing the water closet from the capitol was adopted. On motion of Mr. McDonald, of Moore, the resolutions “declaring what has been done and appointing a commit- tee to enquire what is necessary to be done,” were taken up and read a second time. Mr. McDonald moved to Amend by makingthe number of com~ mittee seven Instead five. Agreed to. Mr. Richardson addressed the Con- vention in opposition to the resolution, Messrs, Dick and McDonald favored them. Mr. Richardson moved to lay or the table. Lost, yeas 20, nays 71. The resolutions were then referred to a committee of seven. On motion the Convention adjourned. e ordi- Monpay, Jone 4. The Convention was called to order at ten o’clock a. m. Prayer by Rev. J. M. Atkinson, of the Presbyterian Church. The Journal of Saturday was read and approved. r. McGehee, for the select Commit: tee to which was referred Mr. McDon- ald’s resolutions declaring what has been done, and appointing a committee to as- certain what is necessary to be done, to restore the State tothe Federal Union, reported the following as a substitute therefor ; : . Whereas, the people of the State of North Carolina have manifested their loyalty to the general Government by promptly adopting such measures as were deemed n to restore their relations to thot Government, to-wit : An ordinance declaring null and void the ordinance of secession ; an ordinance rohibiting slavery in the State of North arolina ; an ordinance prohibiting the payment of all public debts created or incurred in aidof the rebellion; which said ordinances have become a _ part of the organic law of the State: And whereas, the people of the State do ar dently desire that whatever obstacles are still in the way oe be removed : Be it resolved, That a committee of seven be appointed to proceed to Wash- ington and confer with the authorities of the general government and report the results of their conference at an early Le r. Ward introduced an ordinance to incorporate the North Carolina Petrole- um and Mineral Company. Referred to a standing committee of five, to be styl- ed the committee on corporations. Mr. Caldwell, of Guilford, an ordi- nance for exchanging the stocks of State for bonds issued before the year 1861. Mr. McRae, an ordinance to enable the Fayetteville and Florence Railroad Company to establish a National Bank in the town of Fayetteville. Referred to the Committee on currency. Mr. Grissom, a resolution to hold even- ing sessions from and after to-day. Lies over under rule. Mr. Wright, from the committee to which was referred the petition of Rev. Thos. D. Fleury for relief from pedlar’s tax for the year 1865, submitted an or- dinance to grant such relief, accompa- nied by a lengthy and humorous report, setting forth the reasons why the com- mittee, while regommending relief in this particular instance, were opposed to its farther extension. Mr, Persall moved to lay the. report and-ordinance on the table, which was not to. The Oonventiow proceeded to consider the amended Constitution. Mr. Phillips moved to amend the de- claration of rights by adding the follow- ing: Boo 27. All Courts shall be open, and every person for an injury done him in his lands, goods, person or reputation, shall have remedy by due course of law, and right and justice administered with- out sale, denial or delay. Adoptéd. Sec. 28. No soldier shall in time of peace be quartered in any house without consent of the owner; nor in. time of dad but in a manner to be prescribed by aw. The consideration of those sections of Article 2d, of the Constitution, which relate to the basis of representation, was postponed for the present. On motion of Mr. Moore of Wake, the following section was interpolated in Article I. between sections 15 and 14, viz: “The style of the acts and laws shall be, “Be it enacted by the General As- sembly of the State of North Carolina, as follows :” Mr. Moore, of Wake, moved to amen by adding the following section : : “Each member of the General Assem- bly before his seat shall take an oath or affirmation that he is constitu- tionally qualified to take his seat.” On motion of Mr. Buxton, the amend- ment was amended by adding the words Par the best of his knowledge and be- ief, The amendment as amended was then at ese bree 88, nays 11. r. Smith, of Johnston, moved to amend section 22, by striking ont the words “by one-fifth of the members pre- sent.” (The section as it stands requires a call for the yeas and nays in the Gen- eral Assembly to be sustained by one: fifth of the members present.) Mr. Smith, of Johnston, said that this amendment was merely proposed to rex store the Constitution asit formerly stood. The change requiring a motion for the zone and nays to be sustained by one- fth of the members present was made by the Convention of 1861. Messrs. urner and Leach, in opposing tho epir- it of secession manifested in the State Senate in 1860-62, had annoyed the se- cessionists fe a Sere calls for the yeas and nays. He believed the change was made with a view to silencing the voices of tas men, and depriving them of a record. Mr. Eaton did not see how any loyal man could object to the section as it stood. It was substantially the same as the provision contained in the Constitu- tion of the United States upon the same subject. The language is almost identi- cal. The amendment was rejected. Mr. Buxton moved to amend Sec. 24 by insterting after the word “Treasurer” the word “Comptroller.” Not agreed to. On motion of Mr. Phillips, this sec- tion was further amended by striking out the words “and council of State.” On motion of Mr. Ferebee,Sec. 19 was amended by striking out the words “before the meeting of the General As- sembly,” and inserting the words “when ‘ever the General Assembly is not in ses: sion.” This section was further amend- ed, on motion of Mr. Eaton, by insertin the words “of election” after the wo “writs.” On motion of Mr. Furches, Sec. 2 of ar- ticle III was amended: by striking out the words “or above” and inserting the words “of at least.” Mr. Logan moved to amend the same section by striking out the words “five ears’’ and inserting the words “ten years fcamediataly preceding his election.”— Not agreed to; years 33, nays 63. Mr. Logan moved to strike out, in the same section, the word “five” and insert “ten.” Not agreed to. Mr. Moore, of Wake, of offered a sub- stitute for article IV, oxcept sections 3 and 4, of the Constitution, as reported by the committeo to revse the Constit u- tion. [This amendment was ordered to be printed and referred to the commit- tee on revisal of the Constitution. ] Article IV in relation to the Judicial Department was then passed over in- formally for the present. . On motion of Mr. Moore of Wake, seotion Ist, of article V was amended by striking out after the words “Almighty God” the word “or” and inseritng the word “and” in its stead. The Convention adjourned until 10 o’clock to-morrow. [The reporter, in giving the names of the committee appointed on Mr. Mc- Donald’s resolutions, was mistaken as to one of its members.

Clinton A. Cilley, late assistant su- perintendent of the Freedmen’s Bureau and Abandoned Lands for this district, | tas been arrested on the charge of mal-| feasance in the administration of the dud ties for which he was specially commis- sioned to perform. Rumor says the charge is, that he oppressed the negro at the instigation of the whites. Or, in other words, that he favored the latter at the expense and injury of the former. There is no doubt, we suppose, that Col. Cilly was commissioned, as were all of- ficers of the Bureau, to oppress the South- ern whites and fayor and elevate the ne- gro; for this, we conceive to be the only object of the Freedmen’s Bureau ; but it 80, Col. Cilley chose not to follow the de- sign in this particular, but dealt fairly and did justice between all. So that, if he is arrested or censured at all, it is because he dared to do right and act honestly in the discharge of a public duty. If he ever mis- treated or oppressed any negroes, we never heard of it. If he ever did more than justice demanded for any of the whites, we have not heard of it.— This story will be news to our people. They will lis ten to it with a smile of de- rision. We know that Col. Cilley was fre- quently censured and denounced by many of our people for his supposed fa- voritism towards the negro,in rendering his decision in matters of difficulty be- tween the two races. We trust the rumor is false; but if true, Col. Villey will have no ditticulty in procuring witnesses here to exonor- ate him from the charge.— Banner. AN EXCELLENT PROPOSITION. The ordinance introdaced into the Convention by Mr. McCorkle, of Stanly county, to prohivit the Legislature from electing its own members to office, isa much needed measure, and its adoption would result in remedying a great evil. It has been the practice of our Legisla- tures to fill neat all the offices with its own members. If a Judge or Solicitor is to be elected, a member is given the place, because he is on the ground and can “log-roll,” electioneer and pull the wires successfully. If an importaut Com. mission isto be appointed, members of the Legislature combine and elect them- selves. And to such an extent has this practice been carried, that persons who aspire to certain offices first secure their election to the Legislature in order to secure the office they want. It is frequently the case that the fate of important public measures are made to depend on the whims or combinations of members who desire to appropriate the offices. Let such evil and corrupt- ing practices be prevented by an Ordi- nance of the Convention, and let it be the law that no man shall be elected to an oftice by the Legislature while he is a member of the Legislature. Some one may raise the objection that such alaw would deprive the State, some- times, of the services’ of some of the qest men ; bat let it be remembered that the best talent is not always to be found io the Legislature or in Congress. “There are as good fish in the sea as was ever taken out of it.”—Charlotte Democrat. PIETY GIVES NO EXEMPTION FROM SUFFERING. A good man is by no means exempt from the danger of suffering by the crimes of others; ever his goodness may raise him enemies of implacable malice and restless perseverance ; the good man has never been warranted by heaven from the treachery of friends, the diso- bedience of children, or the dishonesty of a wife; he may see his cares made useless by profusion, his instructions de- feated by perverseness, and the kindness rejected by ftngratitude; ho may lan- guish under the infamy of accusations, perish reproachfully by an unjust sen- tence. A good man is subject, like other mor- tals to all the influences of natural evil ; his harvest is not spared by the temptest, nor his cattle by the murrin; his house flames like others in a conflagration ; nor have his ships any peculiar power of rey sisting hurricanes; his mind, however elevated, inhabits a body subject to in- numerable casualties, of which he must always share the dangers and the pains; he bears about him the seeds of disease aud may linger away a great part of his life under the tortures of the gout or stone ; at one time groaning with insuf: ferable anguish, at another, dissolved in listlessness and langour.—JoAnaon. -o-+ THE MEMPHIS RIOT. Gen. Stoneman has submitted his report of the origin, &c., of the late bloody riot in Mem. phis. He exhonerates the returned Confederates from any responsibility whatever, divides the blame about equally between the negro soldiers and the Irish (Union) police, and states thatthe disorder ruling the city is attributable to the fact, that the best class of citizens are disfran~ chised under the registration, and that their rule is thrown into the hands ef those alike un-~ wortby and incompetent. mee" ites osxcaxds, oe == SALISBURY, N.

The British version of the fight at Ridgway is that the attack was made by British troops, who drove the Fenians. A number were kil on both sides. The volunteers were expected to hold their own for reinforcements to reach them, which were momentarily expected. American neutrality is severely censured, and the people declare that the goveroment is in collusion with the Fenians. The general impressiow here is that the pre- sent movement is a feint to cover the real point of attack, which will be on the line of the St. Lawrenee river, Canadiau troops are stationed along the line to prevent Fenians crossing. The suspension bridge is carefully guarded and all travellers scrutinized. Movements of men towards the frontier are reported from every part of thecountry. The town of St. Albans, Vermont, is the rendezvous of reinforcements. ‘The 3d Fenian infantry, 1200 strong, and a Fenian cavalry regiment left Boston for that point yesterday morning, Smaller detachments from Syracuse, Elmira, Troy, Rochester, Lowell, Rutland, and other places, are continually arriving. One of Mosby’s men is suid to have com- mand of the cavalry regimeot from Boston, and the Fenians say that Frzbugh Lee is to com- mand the cavalry of the army. 450,000 rounds of ammunition have been shipped from Columbus, Ohio, within the past few days, for New York, and 150,000 for Chi- cago, aod 30,000 muskets for Buffalo,—all sup~ posed to be for the use of the Fenians. Stevens has issued a manifesto at Philadel- pbia, protesting against the movement of Swee- ney, onthe ground that itis not desirable to commit any breach of neutrality by which this coautry may be compromised. Later. Ruffalo, June 3. Gen. Grant passed for the West, at noon, yes~ terday. He sent the following telegram to Gen. Meade; . Buffalo, June 2. Maj. Gen. Meade, U. S. A. Philadelphia : Gen.

The State authorities should call out the militia on the frontier to prevent hostile expeditions Jeaving the United States, and to save private property from destruction by mobs. (Signed) U.S. GRANT, Lt. Gen. Stil Later. No further definite intelligence from the Fe- nians, One report is that the Fenians drove back the British, capturing 100, killing nine- teen and wounding more. A Canadian dispatch asserts that the volun- teers only fell back for reinforcements. A large number of Fenians are reported to have crossed Niagara river yesterday. A Buf. falo dispar. 1 says that a fight will occur to-day, (Sonday.) The Fenians are said still to hold Fort Erie. A Montreal dispatch says that Gen. Sweene is at St. Albans with a large force. All this needs authentication. The Herald's beet dispatches contain some particulars of the battle at Ridgeway : The Fe~ nians 1000 strong, were met by the volunteers whom they charged, but a swamp intervening Col. O’Neill ordered a ha!t, The volunteers, beliving the Fenians to be retreating,- charged in their turn, which was met by the Eenians, who routed tbe volunteers and they fled to Fort Colburne, completely demoralized. Fenian loss -six killed and a number wounded. After stop- ping pusuit, the Fenians proceeded to Fort Erie, leaving a guard over the wounded on both sides. Trial of Mr. Davis.

Later, Advices from Queenetown to the 23d state that the European crisis is unchanged. The statement that all the powers had assented to a Conference is premature, but invitations have been sent. Sales of Cotton at Liverpool, for tne two days before sailing, 10,000 bales at deslin- ing prices, : Washington, June 2. Leonard Huyck, President of the Merchants’ National Bank, was arrested to~day, on the affi- davit of Freeman Clarke, Comptroller of the Treasuary, for misapplying $200,000 govern~ ment funds. In default of bail he was commit- ted to prison. A decided impression was made upon the guests at a hotel table at Meridian, Miss., a few days since by a Union ‘sol- dier, who rose from his seat and ‘kindly waited upon a one-armed Confederate soldier, who could not help himself very well. The attention was naturally and delicately paid and gratefully received. The Meridian Messenger, which relates the'incident, says: “The spirit of that gray-haired Federal soldier would do more towards reconciling North and South than any spirit which has ever in- vaded the room where the committee of fifteen hold their sessions and pump all sorts of stories out of all sorts of wit~ nesses.” There is no hoax about the matter, for we have our statement concerning it from Colonel Jones, Superintendent of the Memphis and Ohio Road, Mr. Wood- ruff, and other gentlemen of truthful- ness in regard to the monster’s dimen- sions, which are given above. The de- cayed remains are now lying in the bayou, and can yet be seen. This is certainly the largest reptile of the kind ever positively known as a native of this continent, and a great mistake was made in the killing of it, when it might have been easily captured bp cutting off its passage back to the Mississippi.—Mem- phis Avalanche. One of the terra-tappers in West Vir inia, who had bored for oil at Beene ring some 500 feet, greasing the en of his drill a mite, gave it up as a bad job. Upon reflection, however, he grew desperate—inscribed on his derrick, “Petroleum, China or Hell,” and again bored downward. After penetrating to the depth of 1,000 feet his terrevation was rewarded with a flow of oil at the rate of a thousand barrelsa day! This shows what patience and petroleum will do. so Elder Jacob Knapp, the famous revi- Mohri is preaching im Rochester, New ork, Necro Drownep.— We learn from the Richmond Wiig that a difficulty arose between a squad of Federal soldiers and some negroes a few days since in that city, and that a negro was thrown into the dock and drowned. Others would have been served likewise, but for their rapid flight from the scene of action. SiEEPma Cazrs.—Sleeping cars have re- cently become an institution on the central North Carolina Railroad. Mr. Wilkes, the excellent engineer and superintend- ent of that road, merits much credit for the energy he has displayed in perfecting this desideratum so much needed by the traveling public. They area great im- provement, and are well arranged with a view to comfort and convenience. We expect to try them ere long, and shall then be better able to speak of their merits and demerits.— Banner. MARYING FOR SHOW. To the question often asked of young men as to why they do not marry, we sometimes hear the reply: “I am not able to support a wife.” In one case in three, perhaps, this may be so; bat, asa general thing, the trae reply would be: “Tam not able to support the style in which I think my wife ought to live.”— Iu this, again we see a false view of mar- riage—a looking to an appearance in the world, instead of a union with a loving woman for her own sake. There are very few men of indastrious habits who cannot maintain a wife, if they were willing to live economically and without reference to the opinion of the world.— The great eyil is, they are not willing to begin life humble, to retire together into an obscure position, and together work their way in the world—he by industry in his calling, and she by dispensing with pradence,the money that he earns.

Ist. A few citations will show that I have not mistaken the teachings. Vaittel says: “But when a nation becomes divided into two absolutely independent, and no lorger ac- i bg common superior, the State is dis- solved and the war between the two stands on the same ground in every respect, as a public war be- . tween two different nations. They decide their quarrel by arms, as two different nations would do. The obligation to. observe the common laws of war towards each other is therefore, absolute— indispensably binding on both parties, and the same which the law of nations imposes on all hations in transactions between State and State.” As precisely our case is this as if Vattel had had as, and us only, in his mind. Hallam, Macaulay, Welcker, unsurpassed au- thorities on such subjects, and all of our own en- i day, fully sustain Vattel. In speaking civil war, says: “The vanquished are to be jud _ of pations, not of municipal law.” Macaulay says that, in such case, “The vanquished ought to be treated according to the tules, not of municipal, but of international a : ote ee eS iged by the rules “And Welcker says: “His (the leader's) followers are also more or]? less punishable as aivers and abettors, as long as their number has not grown so large that a sincere belief exists that he or they act with the consent of the nation, or that a division of the nation has taken place into two hostile camps. Ia the latter tase the rebellion becomes civil war: the right has become doubttul, and is left, as in the wars be- tween several States, to the decision of an Al- mighty judgment. ((ottesgericht.) Under such @ presamption every citizen is bound to declare thimself for one or the other party (according to the wise law of Solon he is bound to do it—to either go right or left) ; and then neither blame nor punishment can reach him; whatever the re- sult of the battle may be. Then there are only Vietors and Vanquished—not Loyalists and Crim- inals. And although it is difficult to state the pre- cise moment when Rebellion ceases aud civil War commences, there nevertheless exists an essential difference between them, and when the moment has arrived, it is then for the victorious party to extend clemeacy, and even na,punishment at all— for prudence and humanity would dictate such a course, ~ In the article “Treason,” in the New American Cyclopedia, said to be written by our eminent fel- low-citizen, Dr. Lieber, are the following lines: “No one incurs the guilt of treason by an ad- herence to a king of government de facto, although the king or government has but the right of a suc- éessfal rebel, and loses all by a subsequent defeat.” . 2d. That our government is committed by its deans tat deal with the South as witha con- her, ° It négotiated with her for peace—and in one of ‘these negotiations our taeldsiokogers, who went more than half way to meet hers, were no less , than the-President and the Secretary of State.— Tn a word, it came to a clear understanding with the enemy, that the war should be conducted ac- cording to the law of war. 4 I do not forget that our ., order No. 100, in 1863, is quoted to fet that we therein apprized the enemy that, if vanquished, he _. would be held for treason. Nor do I forget that President Lincoln's Proclamation of Amnesty im- plied that the case was still one of treason. But these were all exparte as well as ex post facto pa- pers; and had, therefore, no power to repeal, nor ip any wise modify, the understanding between the parties—most emphatically not, wat the par- ties were continuing to act upon that understand- ing. The same istrue of any Act of Congress touching the case, Aad, just here, let me say » that, sinee there was no treason to pardon, Presi- -dent Johnson had no pardoning to do. Pardons to Southern men are no more fh place than would be. hoi to Englishmen had we conquered Eng- ; + 3d, I will advert to a few of the abundant and * »gonelusive reasons which justify these eminent * writers on publiodaw in taking the ground in ques- jou, and whiob, therefore, justify our Government in having virtually taken it. ’ A. A mere insurrection or rebellion is to be put down by municipal or local law. But when the strife rises into the dimensions and dignity of a vivil war, the beligerents are too numerous to be held as traitors. Says Edmund Burke: “I do not know the method of drawing up an indictment against a whole people.” Nor is the objection to treating them as traitors, instead of enemies in war, overcome by pardoning all but a few. The stigma of ‘treason should not come upon any of them: and-the wiping it off. By the way, the spirit of republi- ¢an institutions utterly forbids this distinction be tween the many and the few—this holding of only the prominent few responsible, and reducing the many to mere cyphers. They whochose Davis and Stephens for office, were as responsible for their acts as were Davis and Stephens Br submitting to it. As reasonable would jt be to punish the chosen tn the choosers as the choosers in the chosen. we punish Davis and Stephens, consistency re- quires us to punish thousands: and, if we let the thousands go unpunished, consistency requires us to let Davis and Stephens go unpunished. RB. When vast numbers take a very important step, it is not only reasonable to believe that they you Republicans who, by teed rdon but fastens it, instead of If honor.numbers instead of worshiping the few, to blame Government rather than the le. Espe- cially ready should they be to view with charitv a however t wrong, where it is a whole people who are driven into it. ©. Civil wars, unless they shall be allowed to be conducted in their final as well asin all their by the law of war, will ere long, become “black flag” aad “no quarter” wars. And in this place let-me say that we should have lost our country had not our Government consented to let the war be conducted according to the law of war. The North would rather have given up the South than have tried to hold her by a war carried on upon the low plan of a merciless barbarism. D. There is suffering enough iv a civil war, and especially to the defeated party, without adding to it after the fighting has ce; And surely, the irit of the man, who, to inerease the suffering of the South, would break the agreement with her to carry on the war uoder the law of war, is not to be envied. I need give no more reasons in support ofi the authorities I cited. But it will be said that the Constitution plainly defines what is treason; and that your Court must follow the Constitution. I admit the plainness of the definition. But, cer- tainly, I must not admit that every one, who does what in another would be treason, is himself guilty of it. A French or English army invades us.— The Constitutional definition of treason describes the acts of this Army. We capture it. Neverthe- less we do not try it for treason. Why not? Sim- ply because it isof another nation. But the South came up into a de facto nation—for the time being into another nation—and, therefore, we should not try her for treason. I have admitted the plainess of the Constitution at one point. Its lack of plainness at another and most vital point is of itself a sufficient reason why the South should not be held for treason. It was not slavery alone, but slavery combined with the doctrine of State sovereignty, that brought on the War. Since ~ Rey of the statesinen of the North and a majority of the statesmen of the South, including even Jefferson and Madison, have believed that they saw this doctrine in the Constitution, it is idle to say that adequate pains were taken to shut it and all semblance of it out of the Constitution. Perhaps the streams of blood shed in this horrid War have not washed away, entirely and forever, this pernicious doctrine. Then let it be provided for, if not by a constitutional amecdment, at least in the terms of “Reconstruc- tion,” that it shall no more return to curse us. And at any rate, let none be punished for acting upon this doctrine, until it shall have been made indis- putably certain to every reasonable mind that the doctrine is not a part of the law of the land. I need say no more to show that it was a civil war in which the South became involved—and such a civil war, as brought her emphatically un- der the law of war. I need say no more to show that she can never come witbin the jurisdiction of Sead Court until the Peace-makiog power shall ave restored the former sway of the Constitution. But for the sudden collapse and annihiliation of the Confederacy, the President and Sgnate would have been on our part the Peace-making power. Now, the law-making power of the Constitution is the whole of this Peace-making power. How great would be the sorrow of all the op- ressed nations of Christendom, at learving that the Chief Justice of the United States holds that in a civil war, and even in a fully developed one, there remains the crime of treason and work for the executioner! They would feel fresh alarm, whilst every despot would feel himself more firm- ly seated than ever. Surely, America, with all her boasted love of freedom and human rights and with all her deference for numbers, should not be guilty of subjecting the vanquished party in a civil war tothe law of treason. There will probably be many more civil wars, The great majority of them will originate in the iaterests of Freedom.— Some of them—perhaps many of them—will re- sult adversely to her. When they do, shall the con- quering tyrants be able to plead the example of America—of Republican America—of Freedom- loving America—for hanging the vanquished Wash- ingtons and Franklins? Qod forbid! But it will be claimed that the Washingtons and Franklins, having a just cause, should not be hung; and that the Davises and Lees should be, because their cause is unjust.—Unavailing distinction! For the con- queror would have but to hold (and for this his own bare word would be his sufficient authority,) that his own causeis just and the enemy’s unjust— and then his way would be clear to go straight to hanging the Washiogtons and Franklins. On the other hand, there is not in all Christen- dom one enlightened friend of human rights, who would not rejoice in the influence on the cause of human rights of your refusing to recognize the crime of treason in a po} rising, after it has reached the stage of civil war. For there is not one such who would fail to see in the refusal a proper + and deference to numbers; or who would fail to see in it the making of revolution more easy; and, what is far better, the making of governments more studious of justice in order to prevent revolu- tion. By the way, there are some, who deny the right of revolution in a republic—especially in a republic, where suffrage is as extended as in our own: and hence do they deny that the revolution- ists in a fepublic are entitled to the humanities of the law of war. But there may be as unendarable oppression in a republic, (there ,have been in our own,) as under monarchy or oligarchy. It is not where the oppression is, but how t it is, which affects the question of the right of revolution. Humanity is, on the whole, constantly making progress. In almost every age it takes some mark- ed and wide step upward and onward. Such a one will it take in this age, if Christendom declare her- self against the recognition of treason in a civil war. Will she thus declare herself? A mighty impulse toward it would she feel from your invit- ing her to declare it. ‘Aud who knoweth,” my old and honored and beloved friend, “whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” Beautiful and glorious for yourself, your country and mankind will be your chief justiceship, if God shall incline 'you thus to illustrate it’ And nota little would be done toward gaining us the heart of the South, should you from your high place say that she ought not to be put on trial for treason.— For to try Jefferson Davis for it would be to try herself for it: and a wrongto him would be felt by each of her aggrieved people to be a wrong to himself. How sad that the North should in this, the great | trial-hour of her wisdom and integrity, be found so ; mistaken in regard to her needs avd duties! She denounces the South for bringing on the war. But her own responsibility for itis no less than that of the South. Nay, in the light of the fact that her temptations to betray freedom and justice were so much weaker than those which assailed the South, her share of the common responsibility for the war is far the greater. She clamors for the punishment of the Sonth under the Constitution. Rut she should feel that the South has been punished very severe- ly already. She complains that the South has still a hard heart. Bot it is not barder than her own. The heart that can refuse gratitude to the brave, forgiving and magnanimous black saviors of our country, and that, by denying éhem suffrage, can throw them again uner the feet of their old op- pressors, isa heart that need not look abroad for a worse one. The North calls on the South to repent. But she needs to hamble herself by the side of the South in a common repentance for common sins. ous ed her quite away from listening to those claims, and turned her quite back again into her old hab- its of arrogance and tyranny. Nevertheless, Con- gress could have recovered her, by promptly an- nouneing its unalterable policy of impartial justice to all her classes. Then would the South have re- ted now she despises ii. Then would gress have converted the South ; pow,the South is converting Congress. No “civil Rights Law, and no other substitute for entire justice, can save the South. No promise of protection to that por- tion of her people, whom it leaves stripped of their own power and natural right to protect themselves, can save her. Without equal justice in all things to all her people, she will go straight on fo greater horors than those she has emerged from—even to the horrors of a war of races, The absurd posi- tion of the. President and one Member of the Uab- inet after another, and of 6ne Member of Congress after another, that the conqueror, though ackaowl- edged to have the entire control of every thing else in the conguered States, has only a partial control of suffrage in them, will not suffice to cheat the blacks of the south, and least of all, their Great Avenger. I have said we must deal with the South in the spirit of impartial justice. We must also deal with her in the spirit of great generosity and great love. We must nee no indemnity for the past. We must exact no unnecessary security for the future. We must subject her to no changes and uo disa- bilities, which are not indispensable. If the break- ing up of her large landed estates to parce! them out to her white and black poor is not demanded by her people, we must not insist upon it. If, by putting the ballot in the bands of her blacks, it will not be necessary, in order to save her, to withhold it for a season from her whites who were involved in the guilt of the war, then are thee strong rea- sons why we should not insist upon the probation. One thing more. The south is poor, and the north is still rich, Would it be too large an expression of fraternal love to save the South for some five or ten years from the imposition of direct national taxes? ett & a entomnnette FUN AT HOME. Don’t be afraid of a little fan at home, good people. Don’t shut up your house lest the sun should fade your carpets, and your heart Jest a heartydaugh shake down some of the musty old cobwebs there. If you want to ruin your sons, let them thiok that all mirth and social enjoyment mast be left on the threshold without, when they come home at night. When once a home is regarded as only a place to eat, drink and steep in, the work begins that endsin gambling houses and reckless dissipation. Young people must have fun andrelaxation somewhere ; if they do not find it at their own hearths stones it will be songht at other and per- haps less profitable places. Therefore let the fire barn brightly at night, aud make the homestead delightful with all those little arts that parents perfectly un- derstand. Don’t repress the buoyant spirits of your children; half an hour of merriment round tho lamp and firelight of ahome, blots ont the remembrance of many a care and annoyance during the day, and the best safeguard they can take with them into the world ia the un- seen influence of a bright little domestic fireside. A person in Paris noticed a poor man with a wooden leg walking past his hotel, and gave him atranc. The next day he saw the supposed beggar, but he had changed the wooden leg from the right to the left. Enraged at the decep- tion, he went up to“ the man, and ex claimed: “You rascal’ you had the wood en leg on the other side yesterday! You are not lame at all!” the response with dignity, “I never said I was. 1 wear a wooden leg for econo- my, so as not to wear out my trousers, and I change the leg to prevent one leg of my trousers wearing out before the Lother.” Sra EO eT “My dear,” said Mrs. Dogberry to her daughter, “yon should not hold your dress so very high in-crossing the street.” “Then, ma,” replied the maiden, “how shallI ever show the beauty of my flounced pantaletts, that 1 have almost ruined my eyesight to manufacture?

WILKEs, 7,23 ;d&wtf Eng. § Supt. \ “Monsieur,” wag Mrs. Dogberry spoke of giving # statement of the condition of the Oompa py to the Ist of April last. Like every soathern interest, private or incorporated, this Company saf- fered severely by the late war. But it was not ut- terly rained. It came out with assets to the am't. of $157,106 80, in premium 6 per cent notes and individuals bonds, against » hability by losses $68,084 50, Now whatever may be said of fhe character or availability of these assets, the charter and the home character and the organization re- main undargaged, and should, therefore, be as bigh- ly prized and as confidently sustained by the pat- ronage of North Carolinians now as before the war. It is certainly not in a worse condition than when it commenced its existence; and if it was perferred as an institution then, there are additional and stronger reasons why it should be now. We think the partial abondment of the Company by many of its old friends and patrons is more the result of the efforts of special agents of northern in- surance companies than any substantial reason growing out of its financial condition. It is made profitable to these agents to put forth every effort to extend the patronage of the mamoth northern companies, and we do not think it harsh to believe than many of them, tempted alone by the reward of success, have directly assailed our home company as unworthy of renewed confidence ; whilst others, with more State pride, perhaps, but not less cupidi- ty, bave only reefing, thera the very existence of the North Carolina Mutual. We heard from a good source, a few days ago, that an agent of one of these northern companies had procured 150 new policies in a single city of this State. If they bad insured in the N. C. Mutual it would have relieved the company of all embarrass- ment—put it in the full tide of successful operation. But if a single city could bave done this much to build up a home institution, what would have been the effect if every North Carolinian, insuring since the surrender, nad sent his money to our own com- pany! Unfortunately it is gone to contribute to that already overgrown financial power of the north, ev- er ready tocrush out the dawcings of competition iu our own section. : are others, doubtless, who wish to insure, we would respectfully suggest to them our.own North Caroli- na Mutual, managed with the proverbial honesty the local agent of the Company at this place. -———_ 9 e —-— {2 The Hillsboro’ Recorder says that a hurri- cane passed over a portion of Orange county, on the 26th ult., doing considerable injury to the timber and fences in its course.

And yet this is pre- cisely the light in which Thad. Stevens and his party persist in it, Such a view is a bysical impossibility as well as a logical absurdity ; or how can the creature subordinate the creator to it? Congress is merely the creature of the Con- stitution, and has no authority aside from what is definitely bestowed upon it by the text of that in- strament. If the contract be broken, the partner- ship necessarily lapses. If the partnership cannot be dissolved, the terms of it are not pep anodi alteration save by mutual consent of all con- tracting parties.

Yet this is jost what is do- ing under the guidance of Stevens, _is the simple creation of the Constitution. All of its acts derive their validity exclusively from that in- strument, and = instrument again a = validity except upon the plain presumption of its irrefragi- ble Deere Consequently, every act of Congress which attempts to set up an big tahoe in imperio, to alter the meaning or impair the binding force of the Constitution, is, #pso facto, null and void, since the ering ‘and antecedent effect of any sech legislation is to destroy the authority of Congress. There cannot be any copstitutional action of Coa- gress which assumes the authority of that body to be original, instead of derivative, as it unquestion- ably is. And hence, every attempt to enhance the ReiGrity of Congress by depriving either of the other co-ordinate functions of Government—the judiciary or the executive—of their delegated and independent powers, is simply revolution and should be met as such.— Rich.

The passions engendered by four y@ars ‘of terrific civil! strife were burning hrithe bosoms | of eur 5 at aw by the surging torrent. The finances of the State were almost utterly ruined. Pub- lic aud private confidence had well nigh departed. ‘The administration of the civil law had been for some time suspended, an id produced that degree of demoral- ization which is ever consequent upon that condition of things. We were still to some extent under military government. Under such ciremustances was Governor Worth called upon to preside over the Ex- ceutive department of our State Govern- ment for the term of one year from the Ist day of Jauuary last. A mighty and diff- cult work was before him. ‘The machinery of civil government, in all its varions de- partments had to be set in motion, and to some extent to be reorganized. ‘The whole financial system of the State needed to be revised and established upon a new basis. It was his duty so to act, in the adminis- tration of the State government, as to pocthe, as fiir as possible, the agperities of the past, and restore peace and Nyggmony amone all classes of our people, and be- tween all sections of our State, and of our common country. ‘Phat he would be com pletely sucess: ful in this, no one expected, —no one suppesed that it was possible for any man to accomplish all that uuder the circumstances was desirable Yet he has had a suecess which his most sanguine fiieuds did not anticipate. His administration of the government has giv- en entire satisfaction to every unprejudiced he is, and will ts, bé, the Governot of the State aud not of a faction or of a my. — H n 1 7? i 5 Bore hic! nt onvention may do, hecauge rey apo its imme- diate adjuurbinete.” , theré is not, as our readers will rémembér, one word of truth in this statement. We took no part whatever in the disoussioh’ of the question of adjournment—in fact, never alluded to the subject but once, until after the ques- tion had been disposed of and Mr. Clark’s resolution had been voted down; and then we rather intimated a wish that it would adjourn, expressing our fears that there would be “any amount of managing and political wire-pulling ” during the Session. We subsequently expressed the epinion that the Convention fiad acted wiscly, pro- vided it confined itself to its legitimate bu- siness—that of amending the State Con- stitution, and gave the grounds upon which that opinion was predicated. Yet we are charged with having opposed the immediate adjournment of that body, and consequent- ly with being responsible for its avtions. But any misrepresentation with refer- ence to ourself’ is a matter of little conse- quence, compared Yo & ‘arisrepresen tation calculated to excite to . phrenzy the great mass of our people. Such a misrepresen- tation, whether wittingly or unwittingly we know not, the Banner of this morn- ing has made in reference to the action of the Convention on the questjon of rape by a negro on the person ofa: white wontdni ‘The Banner Creates” the impression that the law making rape a eupital felony has been repealed, and that hereafter eyeu a —_ “BYMAT CHILE CP persons WNT rom dikap- . pointment or other causes, are disposed to He has done much to reconcile our people, and be eaptions and fault-finding. could bave done much more, but for the captions opposition of those who, from the principles they profess, ought to have been the first to sustain him. Having been elected for the short term of one year, and having so demeaned himself as to give en- tire satistaction to his friends who suppor- ted him, and to extort the praises of many of those who opposed him, it was expected that he would become a candidate for re- election—in fact, it was his duty to do so. Ilis circular, which is somewhat brief and pointed, does honor alike and heart. vass the State—says that if the practice at any tine be a wise one, he could not do it now without detriment to the public in- to his head He does not propose to can- terests, owing to the constant pressure of Exceutive duties. We are glad of this, as we have ever doubted the propriety cf such canvasses, and we hope that the prac- tice will never be revived in North Caroli- ua. He points to his admiaistration thus far as evidence of what it will be in future. He briefly refers to his life-long principles and aets, to show his present political po- sition. He then closes, after urging upon our people the importance of becoming re- conciled to each other and to the Federal Covernment—in other words, he is for re- conciliation, complete and universal, and deprecates any thing like a revengeful spirit. These are the words of soberness and wisdom, and exhibit the true spirit—a spirit which, if it had been acted upon by Con- gress and the Northern people, would long before this time have obliterated most of that bitterness of feeling which has so long existed between the two sections of our country, and restored the Union not. only in a legal and constitutional senee, but in the hearts of our people, We sincerely hope and believe that Gov. Worth will have no opposition. Few men in the State possess more administrative orfinancial ability. His liberality is known to all, yet none can question his loyalty. H{c is eminently a representative man of the true conservatives of North Carolina. He is as warmly devoted to the generous policy of President Johnson as any man can be; yes he eounsels that wisdom and | moderation without which our support is convicted thereof, ia only to be punished “by whipping, &e.” Now, the facts of the case are simply these. Under oyr former laws, which in this respeet wete not changéd by thie last Legislature, any person, whether wnite or black, who was convicted of the crime of rape, was liable to suffer death. Any white man convicted of an attempt to com- mit a rape, was only punished for a bigh misdemeanor, while a negro convicted of an attempt to commit a rape upon the per- son of a white woman, was guilty of a capital felony, and liable to be punished with death; thus making a distinction in regard to the latter offence between the punishment inflicted upon a white man and anegro. ‘The Convention has so amend- ed the law as to make the punishment the same, for this latter offense, between white persons and negroes. The punishment for the crime of rape is still death, no matter by whom committed; while an attempt to commit a rape, not consummated, is pun- ished'*‘by whipping, ‘&e.” »'This’ is the tme state of the case. Whether the Cjvil Rights bill had any thing to do with the action of the Convention, we cannot tell; but we know that many members of that body were influenced by the fact that Gen. Ruger, the commandant of the military department of North Carolina, who now has charge of the Feeedmen’s Bureau in this State, offered to tufn over to the civil courts of the State, all cases where the frecdinen were charged with any indictable offense, provided that distinction was re- moved. But certainly no partizanism has been visible in the action of the Convention upen this question. The strongest grounds taken by any member of that body against it, were taken by one of the delegates from this county—Dr. 1. W. Joncs, whose re- marks upon the subject we publish in our paper to-day. Dr. Jones not only opposed it with all his powers upon the floor, and by means of his personal influence with the members of the Convention, but after voting against it, he entered his most sol- emn protest against it upon the journals— protesting against its passage mainly upon two grounds; first, that he meer would con- sent toremoveeny of the safeguards whichour Jathers had thrown around the virtue our y and dly, that he never would do any act which ‘recognized the constitu tionality of the Civil Rights bill. only calentated to embarrass him. ‘The purity of his life and the integrity of his | character is admitted by all, howevermuach | they may have differed with him in opir| If the Convention has done anything so horrible as the Banner seems to think it has, one wonld think it would at least have been ready to do juscice to and award the due meed of praize to one of the rep- Peres Wenn Tne cre ne ecto e os TY 4 Monday evening, June 11. As expected, the basis question came up this morning, after the hearing of peti- tions, reports, and the reading of resolu- tions and ordinances. ‘hat your readers may understand the question, the ordin- ance before the Convention is to change the basis of representation, so that after the year one thousand eight hundred and seveuty-one, representation in the House of Commons shall be based upon the white population, and the Senate upou taxation. Gen. Logan offered an amendment propos- ing that representation in the Senate should also be based upon white population, He followed up his amendment in a speech of some length, in which he enforced his views with his accustomed ability. Mr. Phillips replied, objecting to the amend- ment, as it was entirely too one-sided an affair; that property required protection, and that the amendment turned loose the flood-gates of the popular will, which might some day impair the security and rights of property. Col. Bynum followed, in a speech, char- acterized with great force and marked abil- ity, advocating Gen. Logan’s amendment. His speech is regarded, by the advocates of the amendment, as unanswerable. It abounded with cogent reasoning and apt illustrations. As I learn the speech will be published, I shall not attempt to give vour readers a sketch of his effort, until it is published. Let them agree with your correspondent in the opinion, that this speech, of itself, will stamp Col. B. as one of the ablest debaters of the Convention, and one of the most profound thinkers of the State. Mr. Mebane followed, in a short speech, in reply, when Mr. Grissom introduced a te leteae Co ae . net ’ & pag 4 @ het Fenntc Mald have sold all their effects, converter ne same into money or bonds, and the ereditor would have been without any yemedy. It would have been attended with the greatest evils; and as one of the speakers truly observed, such an amend- ment “ would blaze out a road over which the car of repudiation of private contracts might travel unmolested.” J udge Buxton deprecated the hardship resulting from our legislature imprisoning debtors, but the House, your correspondent thinks, acted wisely in not upsetting her provision im respect to imprisonin debtors, which has remained veaintanie for ninety years.— The Constitution expressly provides : “ That the person of a ebtor, when there is not a strony presumption of fraud, shall not be continued in prison after delivering up his estate &c.,” as to any hardship re- sulting from requiring bail in the first in- stance, and arresting the debtor's body.— This is a matter solely belonging to the legislature, and if it should see proper to require only a summons to bring in @ debtor to Court, it can be done by the leg- islature, but to incorporate into the organ- ic law the principle that a Ca Sa shall nev- er issue, smacks very much like a step towards pointing out to dishonest men a short road to evade the payment of all debts however meritorious they may be, and whatever may be the ability of the debtor to pay. The Basis question is fairly before the body. Gen. Logan’s amendment so as to let the basis of representation in the Sen- ate be the white population, is now under discussion. Mr. Conigland has just con- cluded a very powerful speech in opposi- tion to the amendment, his facts and fig- ures will require great ingenuity to refute them. He thinks that those who pay the taxes ought at least to have a voice in the regolution. to the effect that, 2 day for paying a tribute of respect to Gren. Scott, that the house do now adjourn, which was carried. The only noticeable thing of interest about Raleigh, is that the hotels and_ pri- vate boarding-houses are to-day literally filled with boarders. Were our little city loeated on the borders of Canada, | should have supposed that the influx was owing to the movements of the Fouians; but as this sudden filling up of an inland town is an unusual circumstance, it greatly excited the cgriosity of your correspondent. © His state of anxiety was, however, soon re- lieved, by hearing, directly after supper, several of these strangers, in an adjoining room, talking with great earnestness about “advowsons and other incorporeal heredit- aments.” ‘The continual conversation pre- vented your correspondent frem sleeping. Accordingly, he Teft his room and went to a friend’s, and begged to be permitted to sharé a part of his bed, assigning as a reason therefor, the cause above stated, when. our friend replied, “ Listen, in the next room they are talking cornany and loudly about the pataics Af Dorris, and guia emptores.” Finding no-comfort for me there, I went back to bed, and, occasionally awoke by heated “arguments about the proper application of the “rule in Shelly case.” At early «dawn, your correspondent awoke from his sle couch, arid strolled to the Post-office, hop- ing to he relieved, but such was not his lot, Theoffice was not. yet open, and*tWo young men, standing on the steps, appa- rently much excited, attracted his atten- tion; sé-he approached within hearing dis- tance, when ‘to his horror he learned that the conversation was about “springing and shifting uses, and executing devises.” De- termining to seek a place where more con- genial subje be the theme of con- versation, he wended his way to the mar+ ket-house, and was watching a trade for a men earnestly engaged in a dispute, stand- ing over a stall where there was some fine mutton for sale. He left the butcher and on, sia, rack rent, and tenants in tail.” See- ing no eecape from these singular conver- sations, he started to his room, when he learned that all this gingular talk was car- ried on by young men who were applicants for license to practice law. Twenty-seven of these talking young men applied this morning before the Supreme Court Judges, and a atill larger number are now being examined. What a field these young men have embarked in! Formerly the legal fields were green in rich pasturage, where the gentlemen of the long robe could roam, and feed on the most Telicious herbage, but now those who follow this profession have to be content with browsing on coarse ig and this tasteless food—searee, at that. .

Jf his and Col. Bynam’s speeches are published, the people will be able to form correct conclu- sions as to what should be the basis in the Senate. Your. distinguished Townsman, Mr. Boyden, has the floor at this time, and is making a strong speech in opposition to Gen. Logan’s amendment. He thinks that the Senate shall be based upon taxation, and the House upon taxation. The reas- ons assigned by Mr. B. are weighty, and his influence with Western members will doubtless decide the fate of the amend- ment, Mr. Moore, of Wake, will speak upon the subject, he is the “Ajax ” of this body, devoted to revising the Constitution so as to preserve that he regards its Conserva- tave features, he watches with a hawks eye every amendment offered, and woe to the luckless tyro im political science, whose measures happen to meet the frown of this eminently great man, he seemingly works hard from a mere love of it, but his labors are always directed towards acco wag | rood to the State. Although the Conven- tion occasionally differs from Mr. Moore, yet it only occurs when this gentleman adheres too closely to the old land. mark created: by onr. ancestors, having. a great horror for radicalism in every shape.— Your correspondent with diffidence sug- gests that Mr. M. carries his conservative principles farther than the ive spirit and interests of the State demand. After gga cmiaate ne = vophsiany speech, Mr. Phillips introduced an amend- ment to the Saves eR ctor discussion, basing the Senate upon taxation and the House upon the white population. I en- in no doubt: but that it wil] be ad ch.are willing.to compromiae upon taxa- in the Senate if ithe based upon the ation of real estates only.

Your poste Sot ease at the striking simplicity of Governor Worth’s mode of coming to the Capitol. In the morning, after early breakfast, he may be seen riding up Fayetteville street on a small pony, dressed in plain style with ev- ery appearance of an humble citizen of the county. No airs or costly ba apcterity ev- er thrust themselves upon this plain but strong-minded Governor of the State.— He is a fair specimen of a representative man, and if the Convention ¢an be sup- posed to be.a reflex of the sentiments of the people, he has a strong hold upon the affections of the people of the State.

I do not propose to canvass the State. The coustant pressure of Executive du- ties, many of which grow out of our ano- malous political condition, require my con- stant attention. If the practice of can- vaséing the State at any time be wisé, 1 am sure I could not do it at this time, with- out detriment to the public interests. Nor do I deem it expedient to address to you an extended circular. My past life and actions furnish the best guaranty you can have as to my future conduet. Into them I invite your candid scrutiny. ; Upon some of the matters now engaging public attention, I deem it my duty to present you my views. I think the chief attention of a State Executive should be directed to State at- fairs ; but in our present unfortunate con- dition it is proper, and it will be expected that I shall give you my views on nation- al affairs. Asa part of my early education, I was required to commit to memory and rehearse that portion of the farewell address of the father of his country, in which he so earn- estly warns us to indignantly “ frown up- on the first dawning of any attempt to a- lienate any portion of our country from the rest.” This became a fixed sentiment with me. The preservation of the Union has been the poiar star of my political life. In the circnlar by which | prpepecos my- self as a candidate for the honorable posi- at that I had offered, in the House of Com- mons in 1831 yeeolations denouncing nul- lification ; that as a Senator in the General which I thought tended to didunion ; Voting in May 1861, with only two others, against the call of a Convention. I referred also to a circular which I addressed to my con- stituents in January 1861, when the ques- tion of Convention or no Convention was to be decided by their votes, in which I urged them not to be deceived by the cry that the Convention was to be called to “save the Union,” that it was called to ‘“de- stroy it.” I then circulated among my constituents the celebrated speech of An- diew Johnson, then Senator from Tenn- essee and now president of the United States, in which he denounced with equal fervor Northern disunionism and Southern disunionism. I concurred with him then, as cordially as I\do now. In my circular of last October, I stated to you that I had always looked back on my course in all these instances with great satisfaction. In the ensuing election man of you who had always concurred wi me, and many who had formerly differed with me in these views, voted for me. All who voted. had recently renewed their al- legiance to the-Uhited‘ States by taking the; bed: in the President's am- Py on. ‘Tent no'doubt that they took this oath with the honorable and sincere faithfully to observe it. All desired that our former relations with the Union should be speedily renewed. I regarded'the cordial vote for me by’many of those who had maintained the doctrine of secession, as in ‘accordance with their recent pledge of loyalty to the United States, aid as a token ‘of respect for pmy consistent political ‘record, and hence I te- ceived their support as alike creditable to them and to me. “ I declared in my circular to you last Fall, and I now re that if elected, “as far ea my. off ition would . ena- ble me to do it, both from inclination and conviction of duty, I should endeavor to soften the animosities which have grown out of the horrible war, now happily end- ed. If some of us have grievously erred, grievously have all of us atoned for it. I shall endeavor to encourage a spirit of mu- tual forgiveness,—a return to habits of law and order, and steadfast attachment to the Union, which made us 80 great and pros- perous a people while we adhered to the counsels of Washington.” I have endeav- ored to act in conformity to these promises. I refer to these prominent points in my gat 7 record and the circumstances un- er which ‘you did te the honor to elect me last November, to counteract the unjust impression which many have sought to e, at home and abroad, that my elec- tion was a disunion triumph. The impu- tation is‘ grossly tnjust to me, and as 1 be- lieve equally unjust to everybody who voted for me. My conduct in the discharge of my ad- ministrative duties is known to you; and I have so recently had occasion, in my message to the General Assembly, to pre- sent my views in relation to State policy, which message was very extensively tir- culated throhghout the State, that 1 deem it unnecessary to reiterate them tion-whieh I now fill, I referred to the fact’ fate conflict, and by all their influence to endeaver to restore cordial reconciliation between the lately alienated sections. The of our whole nation requires sincere and universal ‘rédonciltation, © ‘This ‘earinot be if proscription and mutual crimination. be indulged. ‘The sublime in holy writ which forbid the indulgence of eal oyolences are universal in their applica- ion. f In such a convulsion as that from which we are emerging, many will have received icvous injuries. No good can spring m the indulgence of revengeful feeling. Let every good citizen exert himself to repress it. Both philosophy and our re- ligion rank forgiveness and charity among the. chiefest. of virtues, avd..as. are few of us who have not occasion to ask forgiveness for our own acts, let us be merciful to each other. If you shall re-elect me as your chief magistrate, I appeal to my past conduct to sustain me in the assurance that I will do all I can to prove myself worty of your renewed confidence.

The penalty attached to this crime, has in my judgment protected many a virtuous wo- man from a violence and humiliation, than which death is preferable, and unless we had a penitentiary in the State. in which criminals of this class could be confined, I am unwilling to see that law repealed.

Then, is it not meet that we should strive to anchor upon its shore when our voyage is over? It cannot be that life is a mere ocean, on which our little barque must float awhile, then sink to its bottom to rise no more. Ah! no, the stars that glimmer so far from our world—limited faculties are placed there to Beckon us to the far off Spirit land, To guide our vessel to the angel strand.

By authority vested in the Public Treasurer, I designate New York as the place of payment. Parties entitled, desirous of effecting the ex- change authorized in said Act, will please com- municate to me at once the amount and ehar- acter of the securities which they wish to be funded, in order that I may know the number and denomination of the bonds which will be required. After the engraver shall furnish the blanks, the bonds will be prepared for issue with little delay. Under advice of the Attorney General, Cou- ns of bonds igsued since, but under acts passed before May 20th, 1861, will be funded their identity is established, by being cut from the bonds in my presence. a provision neces- sary on account of the simnilanty to other Cou- pons, issued since May 20th, 1861.

It is not for pecuniary gain that the “BANNER,” is established ; it has for its aim higher ob- jects, and if we succeed in our enterprise, it will be to us in after life a source of great sat- isfaction to know that, in our boyhood days, we gave a helping hand to Sunday Sehools, the preparatory Schools for places of high trust and position, in the work of our Heaven- ly Father. Its name sufficiently indicates the object which isto control its editorial conduct. There is necessity however fur the remark that it will not be denominational, but alike open to all the Sabbath Schools of this State for con- tributions, in which there is no spice of secta- rianism. The “BANNER” will be issued monthly on handsome type, clear white paper and will contain fourteen columns reading matter, quar- to length.

The Committee on Reconstruction sub- mitted their final report in the I[Honse and Senate on Friday. The synopsis of the report of the committee, which we publish, will be read by every one who feels an interest in the important issues of the day. After along preamble the report concludes as follows: If we add to this evidence the fact that, although peace has been declared by the President, he has not, to this day, deemed it safe to restore the writ of ha- beas corpus, to relieve the insurrection- ary States of martial law, nor to with- draw the troops, from, many localities, and that the commanding general deems | an increase of the army indispensable to | the preservation of order and ‘the pro- tection of loyal and well-disposed peo- | ple in the South, the proof of a condi tion of feeling hostile to the Union and dangerous to the government through- ont the inswrrectionary States will seem to be overwhelming. With such evidence hefore them, it is | | the opinion of your committee— | SALISBURY, N. 0. MON F L That the States lately in rebellion, were, at the close of the war, diso ized communities, without civil goverts ment, and without conetitations or other forms, by virtue of which political rel tions could legally exist between th and the Federal government, Il. That Congress cannot be expected to recognize as valid the election of ré- presentatives from disorganized commu- nities, which, from the very natare of the case, were unable to present’ their claims to representation under those es tablished and recognized rules, the ob- servance of which has been hitherto re- quired. IIf. That Congress wonld not be jus- tified in admitting such communities to a participation in the government of the country without first providing such constitutional or other guarantees as will aid to secure the civil rights of alt citi- zens of the republic; a jast equality of representation ; protection against claims founded in rebellion, and crimes; a tem porary restriction of the right of suffrage to those who have not actively partici. pated in the effort to destroy the Union and overthrow the government, and the exclusions from positions of public trust of at least a portion of tbose whose crimes have proved them to be enemies to the union and unworthy of public confidence. Your committee will, perhaps, hardly be deemed excusable for extending this report farther; but, inasmuch as oo diate and unconditional representation of the States lately in rebellion isde- manded as a matter of right, and delay, and even hesitation, denounced as gross- ly oppressive and unjust as well as un- wise and kar paint it may not be amiss again to call attention toa few undis- puise facts and the principles of public aw applicatle thereto, in order that the propriety of that claim may be fully con- sidered and well understood. The S-ate of Tennessee ocenpied a po- sition distinct from all the other insur- rectionary States, and has been the sub- ject of a separate report, which your committee have not thonght it expedi ent to disturb. Whether Congress shull eee fit to make that State the subject of separate action or to include it in the same category with all others, so far as concerns the impocition of preliminary conditioas, it is pot within the province of this committee either to determine or advise. To ascertain whether any of the so-called Confederate States “are en- titled to be represented in either house of Congress,” the essential inquiry is whether there is in any one of them a constituency qualitied to be represente i in Congress. The question how far per- sons claiming seats in either honse po-- sess the credentials necessary to enable thein to represent a duly qualitied com stittency is one fur the consideration “of eac.1 house separately, after the prelin- inary question shall have been tinally de- te:mined.

Our ride from Durham's Station to Chapel Hill (@ distance of twelve miles) was not, by any ineans, the most comfortable thing in all nature, But by exercising a considerable of patience and fortitude we were enabled to endure it, with some fifteen or twenty others in the same ble fix, and in the same sprin; wagon, and at 3 o'clock, p. m., on Tuesday the 5th of June, we rolled into the campus, followed by a small ca of “the peculiar institution,” who, by-the-by, have quite a peculiar way of showing their fondness for tuusic. Our party was quartered in the old hbra- ry, where all necessary luxuries and comforts were rovided liberally. The pleasure grounds, the lowers, groves and shrubbery (usually called Cam- pus.) surrounding the State University, are decided- ly the most beautiful and enchanting I have ever seen. The word “classic” is not at all inappropri- ately applied. The buildings, if not of the grand- est order, are yet substantial, commodious and handsome, to say the least. At 8 o'clock p. m. on the 4th inst, the introduc- tory exercises to the whole Commencement pro- Bramme began in the Chapel. Some few persons had taken their seats before the appointed hour, in order to make a sure thing of it on their part, at least; and when the s:irring strains of music begau floating from the band seated in the gallery immediately over the stage, there seemed to be a geveral rush from all parts of the town, and ina very short time quite a respectable audience had assembled—probably from different motives and with different notions, but all were a unit 80 far as concerned the applause which greeted the dedut of each Freshman ag be ascended the rostrum to try his lungs i his first effort at declamation, It was a trying time to these “Fresh,”—not a doubt of it. How each speaker's heart bumped and thumped against his mbs as the dread inoment drew nearer! And at last, whea the trial was over, and raptur- ous applause resounded {rom every corner, of the ha.t as he strutted to his seat, he could not help feeling as prood and dignified as a downy Shang- hai when be first tries his pipes amoagst the heas in the barn yard. Oa this, the first night of public exercises, there were twelve speeches, made by Freshmen alto- gether, and bei ween declamatioas chuice pieces of music were played by the band. Upon the whole the boys acquitted themselves wita credit, anid some of the speeches were decidedly good. I ueed uot menuva names, it would be, perhaps, un- charitable, aor do I mean to criticise; it mght pro- dace dissatisfaction and ill-leeling, bat to others I give the same right that I claim for myself, viz: jodge for yourselves. The readez, I trast, will ex- cnse an observation in this connexion—one only, and it is this: The original speeches related chiefly to our recent. troubles—the late war, its causes and effects; and the general tenor of their address- es was not so conciliatory, or “harmonizing,” as Bill Arp wonld say. as might have been desired by some of the audience, the majority of whom, how- ever, cheered Instily. No possible mischief, though, can come from these sentiments—it is merely the expiring mutterings of the late storm, and need give uo one any uneasiness. At eleven o'clock exercises in the hall closed. and the fun-loving, or rather dance-loving portion of the audience repair- ed to the ball room, where the strength of muscle and the agility of limb were to be tried merely as an experiment, Little time was lost in formalities, tedions arrangements, or anything of the sort, and ere midnight there was a whirl and flutter in the spacious hall as if a thousand faries were . keeping time to the most rapturons music. This storm of “fass and feathers,” rustling silks, and clasp, not “clash,” of bare arms, raged with unabated iat under the direction of Prof. R. Slater, until half- past two in the morning, when the “better half” of the interesting multitude adjourned to repair the damages inflicted upon trails, water-falls, skelle- tons and such like articles of minor importance. As yet only the outer works had been assailed, and doubtless, in some instances a lasting impression was made; but the heart, that Gibralter in so ar bosoms, seemed to be impregnable—time wi On the forenoon of Wednesday Prof. Phillips, Jr., delivered a sermon from these words: “And now abideth these taree, faith, hope and charity, and the greatest of these is charity.” In the even- ing Wm. Rencher, a graduating student, delivered an address in the Dialectic hall; said to have been a happy hit, but owing to the inconvenient situation- of the band, I was unable to hear it, At eight o'clock at night the Chapel was again filled, and twelve students of the Sophomore class delivered addresses, concerning which the reader may safely make the same observations that I have made in the foregoing paft of this letter relative to the Freshmen. Again at eleven o'clock the pro- gramme was concluded and those who felt go in- clined went to the ball room, where the dance went merrily on until near day on the following morn- ing. This night the attack was more spirited and the loss heavier, particularly in the calivo depart- ment. At one time scme half-dozen fast sailing schooners came in collision about the centre of the hall, where, as a matter of course, an awful wreck ensued, and for some minutes a most interesting heap of ruins, antique, beautiful and sublime preet- ed the bewildered gaze of the lovers of natural scenery, But it is no wonder that accidents of this sort occurred. The ball room hall was some seventy feet fong and thirty wide, about the centre of which on one side was the music stand. At one end were rooms for the venders of ice water, lemonade, ice cream, oranges, dcc., and at the other end were two rooms also, one of which was ex- clusively a ‘ladies’ room.” The overhead ceiling I should suppose to be at least fifteen feet high, from which beautiful chandeliers hung suspended, lighting up the ball with great brilliancy. The floor had been polished smooth as a glass ‘mirror, and then thoroughly waxed, making it as slick as a frozen mill pond in mid-winter. Is it at all won- derful that the understanding should sometimes suddenly and very unexpectedly give way, precipi- tating a mass of flesh and blood helplessly and ele- gantly to the floot? In that room i felt as though by some magic I bad found my way into an en- enchanted palace.

I need hardly say any thing concerning the Governor, his manner or Lis address, He is 80 universally known that the reader can form a bet- ter idea in imagination than I could give with my pen, and besides I am told that the address will be pabli when all may judge for themselves. I will only remark, however, that the general ‘tone of his pan) debe was altogether of the ae ee style; and by competent jadges was pronoudced one of the happiest efforts and the best hit that could have been made under the circumstances, “ Here is a bealth to thee, Zeb,” for what follows: The position of the writer was such that withont making himself at alf couspicious he cou note every littie circumstance that transmred'midst the vast asge of fluttering fang and “ spike-tails” below. (He hopes he bas not made obey bis thesis. — portunities!) This, by-way of Wait, when the Gov. het been ing some fif- teen minutes, three ladies (evidently from the coun- try) entered, and at the door were met by one of the marshals whose duty it was to provide seats for ladies especially. After no little difficulty he suc- ceeded in seating two; but for the third the case seemed to be hopeless. Now, there was a seat, the fonrth on the right of the rostrum, at the entrance to which sat a deeply interesting specimen of the male genus, who was all attention, “ butter and bread,” to the most captivating red cinglets “ in all natur,” sitting conveniently and pl 1y close on his right. This polite geutleman was tapped on the shoulder by the marshal and ed to give his seat toa lady. Did be? Instead coat ing with alacrity, as he should have done, he lovingly laid his head beside the ringlets and whispered— “Shall 1?” The ringlets immediately shook vio- leny—something like Moloch’s, aud like his, too, I thought sparks of fire were showered, as from the blacksmith’s hammer; but neither pestilence nor war. The next moment Gov. V. was saying some- taing about whe farmer's daaghter,—her ansultied virtue aud chastity ; aad in less than one minute thereafier that same plainly dressed, but neat and’ really handsome young lady could have had a score of seats, Whether this little incident was purely accident- al or intentional, I cannot say ; but it is certain that many rewarks were made about it that evening, and as a natural conseqaence, everybody wanted to hurrah for Vance, old Jeff, President Jobnson, Jimmie Harper, the ladies in general and the farm- er’s “galls” in particular, ben the Governor closed, all hands weut “aft” for dinner, an hour alter which, another procession was formed, the programme of the morning repeated, and by 3, P. a., the chapel was again filed, when the speeches by the graduating class (only three) were delivered; the valedictory by Wa. Rencuer, was most impor- tant, and without favor or partiality was unani- mously pronounced an excellent thing. Around the stage ths evening sat several of the most dis- tinguished mea of the old North State, viz: More- head, Graham, Va: ge &c. Ex-Governor Swain is president of*the Faculty at Chapel-Hill. | Gov. Worth was also preseni, besides others whose names do not now occur to my mind. The afternoon services being closed, al) parties retired to their homes or elsewhere to make the final ions necessary for the grand ball to-night, t ed as though each individual was deter- mined to make a fit, or at any rate they would strike, hit or miss. At 8, r. m., “the music began cherrily and the dance went on merrily.” The Lancer’s Quadrills, among the most popular, are certainly very beautiful; but let a spectator stop both his ears so pomuplacely that no music cam en- ter, and then look at a hall full of ladies and gen- tlemen engaged in the bowing, ing and flirting, and he will havea better idea of the su ively-ridiculous than ‘he could gain by any possible method. On this night of course it was the aim of all-who took aid “gy in the amusements of the evening, to show off to the best advantage ; and for this purpose it may well be stances nature was igno applied to natural defi Some imaginary defecis; I may safely add. rling irons, rouge, plaster Paris, cotton, bears’ oil, cologne, certain modern French institutions, together with an endless varie- ty of unnameable little etceteras, scraped together from the four’ quarters of the globe, and all used to complete the toilett of the latter-day belle or beau, as the case may be. Whew! whata terrible array of littie items of expense, which, in the aggregate, amount to no inconsiderable sum; and after all, inany of these very same articles do a great deal more harm than good. The pale faces among the ladies in the ball room was a source of general re mark, Some few indeed presented really a glast- ly appearance ;—so palid—so death-like! What does it mean? Is it an evidenve of improved taste in the upper circles? If so, happy the man who has already made his choice. Or perhaps our fair friends only wish to court the favor of that grim messenger, Death, by “trying it on” before their time comes, At midnight supper was announced, and the la- dies were first escorted to the supper room, where a table groaning under the weight of so many lux- uries and delicacies was prepared for their accom- modation; and after them the gentlemen.

The preser- vation. of the Union has been the polar “atar of my political life. In the circular “by, which I announced myself as a can- idate for the honorable position which I “now fill, I referred to the fact that I had offered, in the House of Commons in 1831, resolations denouncing nullifica- ‘tion; thatas a Senator in the General > Asecmbly of 1860-61, in a forlorn minor- ity, 1 constantly combatted every thing “which Ithought tended to disanion; -votingio May 1861, with only two oth- ers, against the call of a Convention.

The imputation is grossly un- _just to me, and as I believe equally un- just to everybody who voted for me. My conduct in the discharge of my administrative duties is known to you; d@ Ihave so recently had occasion, in y mMersage to the General Assembly, to ren my views in relation to State policy, which message was very exten- sively circulated throughout the State, that I deem it unnecessary to reiterate them. ~~ Wise policy requires, in order to re Petore prosperity aud order, that every citizen quietly and industriously pursue ‘occupation, and obey the laws of his country while they are in force, howev- r distastefvl some of them inay be. If we would have peace and plenty we must look for them as the fruits of order aod industry.

The good of our whoie na- tion requires sincere and wniversal re conciliation. This can not be if pro scription and mutual crimination be in dulged. The sublime injunctions of holy writ which foibid the indulgence of malevolence, are universal in their ap- plication. In snch a convulsion as that from which weare emerging, many will have received grievous injuries. No yood can spring from the indulgence of re- vengeful feeling. Let every yood citi- zen exert himself tv repress it. Both philosophy and oar religion rank forgive- ness and charity among the ehiefest of virtues, and as there are few of us who have not occasion to ask forgiveness tur our own acts, let us be merciful to each other.

Raxeian, June 11th, 1866. =... Licensed.—We learn that Mr. Kerr Craige and Mr. John Henderson, of this city, have been licensed to practice law in the County Courts. They are young gentlemen of talent and: fair promise, and we trust they may have much suc- cess in the profession they have chosen. Weare not of those who would throw obstructions in the way or curb the worthy aspirations of young men, which is too often the case at the South, and not unfrequently the case in North Carolina. They ahoultl bes indulged and encourag ed. We greatly teed talented young men of all professions to resusitate and serve our country. Those of the old school are passing away, or are for the most part ineligible under the new or- der of things.— Banner. ome THE COTTON TAX. It is gratifying to observe that most of the sound commercial minds of the North are opposed to the tax of five cents on cotton. The New Yo:k Mercantile Jour- nal says ‘there never was a time when it was more desirable to promote the cul- tivation of this staple. The exhaustion of the South, and the want of capital, render it a matier of necessity tor the planters to obtain as quick Teturns as possible, and the imposition of this tax will render sales dependent on the ne- cessities of the market. Capitalists will not advance the heavy tax of $21 per bale unless they see a prospect of immediate sales. Cotton, which was formerly al- most as good as gold, may remain for months in the hands of the producer awaiting the changes of the money mar- ket and the wants of the consumers. For these and other obvious reasons, it is ditticult to resist the conglusion that this tax is most injudicious, Operating as a di rect bounty to the foreign competition, which Great Britain is straining every effort to stimulate. The export duty on cotton isadeparture from the settled practice of our Government. It is doubt- ful whether it is Constitutiunal, and we trust that Congress will hesitate to im- pose this burden upon the struggling in~ dustry of the South. ——_~ee-—____ A gentlemanly young middy, to have the maintop light pnt out, hailed, “Maintop, there!” “Sir?” “ Extin. guish that nocturnal luminary, confound you!” “Sirf” came again from the puz- zled topman. ‘ Here—let me,” said the boatswain, elbowing the midshipman on one side: “Maintop there!” “ Sir?” “ Dowse the glim !” « Ay, ay, sir,” was the cheerful response. «ishing ome —_ According to the report of the Ohio Commissioner of Statistics for 1865, the whole number of divorces in that State reach the number of 837 in one year.— This, at the present popnlation of the State, is one to three thousand persons, and one divorce to twenty-six of the an- nual number of marriages. A story is told of an editor who, soon after beginning to learn the printing bu- siness, went to court a preacher’s daugh- ter. The next time the preacher appear- ed in the pulpit he announced as his text, “My danghter was grievously torment- ed by a devil.” _ oe A meeting was held in New York on Saturday, at which a new political par- ty was formed, to be called the “ United States Democracy.” The marine hospital of South Carolina has been transformed into a freedmen’s school.

Up to this date, the present year, we have no announce- ments and very little talk about candidates. It is, we think, a vatural result of the condition of the South, ignared as she is, in the common govern- meut. The people inanifest @ very marked apathy and ind@ereucy in reference to public affairs, very much a#if they were bot concerncd in them. We suppose they regard themselves as sheep in the shambles, with now aud them a glimmering hope of better times or a better Lome in a differeut clime. yen HOME-MADE BROOMS.—Mr. J. N. Scorirup has left at our office a superior home-made corn Broom, manufactured by himself at Mt. Mourne, in Iredell county, where he bas been carrying on the business for the last four years. He bas sold a number of these Brooms to merchants here—J. D. Brown & Co., Blackwood & Co., Howerton. and Shaver—of whom, those desiring a pretty, substan- tial and durable article of the kiod, can obtain it, We have » good inany men amongst us who, on occasion, make fine speeches advocating the divis- ion of labor, manufacturing, &e., aud there it most- ly ends. A practical effort in this direction, like Mr. Scofield’s, is worth more than a speech with- out the demonstration, Ali such efforts should be hberally patronised ; for just in the proportion that they are built up, they improve and strengthen the country. There was an accident on the Greens boro’ and Danville Railroad, a few days ago, by which Mrs. Trotter, of Swan- sonville, near Danville, was killed, Bish- op Early, ot the Methodist Church, bad- y hurt, and some eight or ten ladies and gentlemen more or less damaged—some seriously. DRYING FRUITS. The Old North State of Thursday last, reminded us of a purpuse previously formed, of calling public attention to the importance of drying Riackser- ries. To many, doubtless, this tay appear a very small business ; and to those who can employ time in more profitable work, it is unsuited. But the smallest subjects of labor and economy resulting in profits to any portion of our people, are worthy of the earnest encouragement of every good citi- zen looking forward to the redemption of our pov- erty-stricken country. It is hoped, therefore, that those who may have this subject brought to their attention, though tore important labor may clain their time, will yet seek opportunities to commend it to thuse who cannot fiud more profitable work. And, by-the-way, it is not so stuall a business after all. = An industrious, well-wanaging person can make it pay from 50 cts. to $1.00 a day—perhaps more, Bight pounds of tis Fiat, dried, will bring a dollar, We do net know how many pounds of fresh gathered Berries will be require to make a Ib. of dried; but think it very sefe tv say nut exceed- ing five. It would not be a hard day's work, then, to make 50 cents at it, aud that much made per day while the seasuu lasts, would do mueli towards supplying comforts ty aud relieving the wants of a very large number of women and children, white and black, who cannot be mure profitably employed. The scarcity of other fruits in this part of the State the present year, is an additional wdacement for saving the Bernes. Tuey will be needed for home use, if not attrected by luring prices to the large city markets. In those lucalities where there is an abundance of peaches and apples, the people need not to be reminded to save iuem, as we be- heved they geuerally doit, It is not oat of place, however, to suggest that too little care is taken to do the work well. Peaches, for instance, should always be pealed when intended fur market; aud utmost care taken to finish them up with a clean, bnght color. Wealthy city consumers staud very mich ou the looks vf such things, and very litte on the price. me The Radical members of Congress, embarrassed by the non-conedrrence of the President in their schemes for the oppression of the South, are endeavoring to find some way of rendering the action of Congress operative without submitting it to the President for his approval and signature. But todo this they mast first discover a reasonable apology for violating one of the plainest provisions of the Constitution, which says : “ Every order, resolution, or vote, to which the concurrence of the Senate and House of Representatives may be necessary, (except ona question of ad- journment) shall be presented to the President of the United States; and be- fore the same shall take effect, shall be repassed by two-thirds of the Senate and House of Representatives, according to the rules and limitations prescribed in the case of a bill.” We apprehend, says the Mational In- telligencer, that it is sutlicient simply to call attention to this clause of the Con- vention. Whatever action one Louse inay take by itself has not the effect of law. Each House can only act authori- tavively upon itself'as a House; but the moment a law or rule of general or spe- cial action is to be laid down by the leg- islative authority, both Houses must join in-the action, and the result must, betore it can assume vitality, be ap- proved by the President. The Constitution does not speak with logical precision when it says “all pow- ers are vested in a Congress.” To speak with entire precision, the legislative power is lodged primarily in the two Houses of Congress and the President, and secondary. in the event of Presidentigl dissent, it is lodged ef- tectively in tWo-thirds of both Houses ot Congress. Gov. Wortn’s Crrcvtar.—We pnb- ligh this morning Gov. Worth’s circular, announcing himself a candidate for re election to the oftice of Chief Magistrate of the State. We think it probable that jhe will not have opposition. So far as ‘the discharge of the duties of the Execn. | live office is concerned, we snppose it will be conceded by all that he has | done well, and deserves the approval of ithe people.—Charlotte Times. there is puch a variety of productions and climates that 1 will look well before eettling. In latitude 15 south, I qm of- fered three leagnes of land, 8 miles from the sea on ariver, (a league here is 10,- 760 acres) 26 slaves, and all the crop avd stock for $17,000. I have fonnd men here who would loan me the money to buy whenever 1 decide where I wish to locate. The price of land varies from one cent to twenty dollars per acre. 1 like the people, their government, and‘ their religion, and whenever I settle I will write and invite you to bring your family and stay a year or two.

The pevple, I mean the natives, are polite and exceedingly kind, and apxious to induce cotton growers, and artizans, and manu- fucturers to settle here. Several of the provinces are preparing to build houses and to send ships South for emigrants. They need not fear to come. There is no place here they will fail to do well in Sune Southerners are buying lands in St. Paulo.” sy Thé Phillips Income.—A paragraph is afloat in all the papers that the annual income of the notorious Abolition disun- iovist, Wondell Phillips, is sixty thons- and dollars. ‘Lhe Cleaveland Plain Dea- ler remarks that it is true, but the state- ment should go with it, which will hard- ly be denied, that Phillips inherited his wealth from ancestors who accumulated immense fortunes by the manufacture of and traffic in New England rum, and by the African trade. For a confirmation of the truth of this statement we appeal to Doctor Cheever, now of New York, who was horse whipped in the streets of Salem, Massachusetts, for writing the story about Deacon Giles’ distillery, and to those now living who were in the em- ploy of the Phillipses while their vessels were in the trade of the west coast of Atrica, The wonder is that this man, who knows where his money came from, and how it w»s obtained, does not make restitution to the extent of his ability, instead of a vast and worthless expendi-~ ture of words in professions of philan- thropy. Unperwoop, tHe Immacunate.—The Warrenton True Index, after publishing Undei wood’s crazy tirade against slave- ly, reproduces from the records of the Fauquier county conrt the papers of a suit io which J. C. was a party. Among the documents is one signed by Under woud’s own hand, in which he, as a rep- reschilative of bis wife, claims that in di- Vision of an estate of which she was a part Yegatee, ihe negroes of the estate should be sold to meet the debts hanging vver a co-legatee. How does this com port with the righteons indignation which could tind no terms strong enough in which to revile Richmond as a slave mart, a second Mozambique, &e., &e. What an unmitigated hypocrite Un- derwood is! W. R.

Mr. Hunter is a citizen cf this place. His efforts are epoken of in a highly complimentary manner by the Courter. Union Banner. PAPER PIPES. Paper pipes possess great advantages over others for many purposes. They are highly glazed inside, and thue di- minish friction; are impregnated with bituinen, and therefore not attacked by insects or acids. Besides these pointe of superiority, they ure sufficiently elas- tic to permit water to freeze in them without bursting, and pipes of three, four and five inches in diameter and a half inch thickness, have withstood a pressure of 500 pounds to the equare inch. These pipes aro made by passing a strip cf paper through molten bitumen, and then winding it round a mandril un- der pressure. They have been used with xreat success in Paris, pipes as large as two feet in diameter having been laid ip the streets. Both gas aud water coms panies havo used them. —_——-_-ee—__ ta9™ It is said by one, well acquainted with human nature, Let him that think- eth he standeth take heed lest he tall.

AEDS Pe ID | _RProspectus. THE PUBLICATION OF THE NORTH Carolina Presbyterian wilt be resumed in Fay- etteville, on Wednesday, the 2nd of Jaguary next. . Confidently relying onthe hearty support whieh we have heretofore received, we shall endeavor to render the paper more attractive both in appearance and matter, than it has ever been, sparing neither pains nor expense in the accomplishment of this purpose. With the passing away of old things, a new spirit of activity, energy and enterprise, has been infased into every department of secular thought and business. Why should not the Chureh, also, partake of the prog seers ad- vancement! Why should she, of ail the agencies, brought to bear with such tremen- duous foree upon the civilization of the pres- ent time, be inefficient, laggard and almost hopeless, in the working out of her own des- tiny? Po arouse the church to the importance and necessity of work ; of unceasing, restless, tire- less energy inthe service of her Master and Head ; this shall be our first chiefest aim. In this we need assistance. We are not alone, sufficient for these things, Our brethren must help us in every way; ay contributions from theirown stores of thought and study; by zealous co-operation in a common cause, for the benefit of all ; by extending our circulation throughout all our borders, and thus giving us the means and opportunity of performing well the work to which we haye consecrated all that we have, and all we hope for on the earth.

PROSPECTUS OF THE RUTHERFORD STAR _The Undersigned propose to publish, in the village of Rutherfordton, a weekly Newspaper to be called “The Rutherford Star.” It is our desire to make The Star a wel- come visitor to all those who feel an interest in the prosperity and welfare of our country as a whole, and the perpetuity of our institu- tions, ashanded down tous noble -an cesty, a Federal Republican Government. Our people have but lately emerged froma gigenie civil war, waged by and between sections of a onco glorious Union, and more desolating to our particular section, than any- thing that has ever happened on this centin- ent, and it is to be hoped, than ever will again. While there is life there is hope, and not- withstanding the great changes wrought by the late civil war, we shall encourage the peo- ple to honesty, industry and economy, we shall take special pains to keep them posted with all beneficial improvements of the age, so that they may once more enjoy bountiful stores, prosperity and happiness. We shall from time to time publish such laws, both State and National, as our people are directly concerned in, and shal! likewise use our influence to establish a sound circula- ting currency, 80 much needed at the present time. We shall be governed by principles and not men, for according to our honest conviction, the present condition of our country is owing to the abandonment of principles, we mean the abandonment of those fundamental prin- ciples upon which the Government of the Uni- ted States was reared. We shall favor and encourage the develop- ment of all our resources, Agricultural, Min- eral &c., and likewise such internal improve- ments as will most likely be beneficial to the Country, and especially the extension of the Wilmington, Charlottee and Rutherford Rail Road west. As to Politics we are True Conservatives, believing neither in the Fire Eaters of the South, nor the Radicals of the North, but in the Constitution, the Union, and the enforce- ment of all Constitutional laws, whether State or Federal, and a ready and willing obedience to the same. , The Star will be published every Wednes- day at the following rates, (strictly jin ad- vance,) payable jin currency or produce at maarket prices. «One copy 12 months, $3.00 ir) oa 6 | “ .00 J.

The Richmond Whig, of a late date, has a long and intensely bitter | urging oug people in no case to sell their Japds to the “Yankec;”’ fearing that if the sales continue, we at the South may be- come Yankeeized. It is singular, indeed, that fo thelight of the nineteenth century any one should argue that peoples are different, aecording to the loeality where they live. The same passions, feelings and emotions actuate us alike, the world over. and the development of. that refinement and potish fowhere to be ‘found, except among the English aristocracy and in Southern society? The answer is plain— an aristocracy; the one acknowledged and fostered expressly by law—the other alto- gether social, but yet as_ firmly fixed, and growing out of negro slavery. Whatever of good or evil arose from | itors, by selling off their effects, and then: this state of things, the superstructure must go with the foundation—negro slave- ry has passcd away and is among thé things that were; and in half a century there will be no appreciable distinction be- tween the peoples North and South. Why, then, should our very excellent cotemporary advise to so suicidal a course? Why should we “bite off our nose to spite our face?” Since Slavery is gone, our poliey is to divide up the lands into small farms. ‘The more farmers you have, the better tilled will be the soil, and the pro- duction will be increased in a heavy ratio. Again, the more industrious working white nen, especially from the North, that we can get, the more easy it will be to defeat the attempt to force universal negro suf- frage upon us; because nothing would so surely and inevitably restore an aristocracy in our midst a8 universal negro sutirage.

Friday, June 16, 1866. Your readers have just cause to com- plain of either the negligence of your cor- respondent, or the printer, in the commu- nications contained in Thursday’s issue of the Old North State. In one of these let- ters, Mr. Boyden is represented as favoring taxation as the basis of representation in the Senate as well as in the House. ‘This is av Crror; it should have been the white population in the Commons, as the grounds taken by Mr. Boyden, as reported in the same letter will show. ‘Then, again, your correspondent was guilty of coming to a full period in the middle of a sentence, and again, of neglecting even the use of a com- maat the end of # sentence. If your cor- respondent is wholly in fault, he shoalders the responsibility, and offers his readers, as an apology, the tact that his letters are written in a noisy hall, surrounded by more thau-an hundred men, many of whom are talking at the same time, and, if not all addressed to the Chair, yet enough within the hearmg of your esrrespondent to dis- turb his writing. On the 13th inst., I wrote you that the What caused a Southern chivalry, | when the detendant must pay to the plain- tiff, or into Court to his use, one-tenth of the demand, and all costs to that time; otherwise, the defendant must plead to the action, aud the sdme rules and practice to be observed as prevailed prior to 1861. If the defendant dogs pay the tenth as re- quired, then he is not required to plead to the action, and twelve months thereafter he is required to pay one-fifth 6f the resi- due of the demand and cogt; then twelve months thereafter the defendant is required to pay one-half of the residue, and twelve mouths thereafter judgment is to be ren- dered for the remainder. The ordinance also provides that dormant judgments shall only be revived by actions of debt, and that the statute of limitations shall not prevent a judgment from becoming dor- mant. ‘The above are the main features of the proposed ordinance. Your readers wilt here perceive that the interests: of the creditor, as well as the debtor have been regarded. The condi- tion of the country demanded that some- thing should be done, looking to the pro- tection of both these large classes. To do nothing for the large portion of the people owing debts might induce them to make the question vf repudiation a subject for electioneering purposes, that members might be eleeted to the leg- islature who might favor abolishing the or- dinary capias for bringing defendants _into Court—that if this was done, and no bail required for defendants’ appearance, it might enable debtors to defraud their cred- carrying themselves, with impunity, be- yond the jurisdiction of our courts. To-day, the Convention, by a vote of tion was adopted, limiting debate to fifteen minutes. So that the people may breathe more freely hereafter. A great deal of unfinished business relating to our organic law yet remains to beacted on. ‘he Con- stitution has not yet passed its second read- ing, (I mean every section.) When this is done, it will have again to be gone over. I trust that all legislative ordinances now disturbed, and that their advocates will only agitate them betore the next legisla- ture. Another important ordinanee passed to- iday its second reading, to wit: that the | elections for Governor and members of the | (Gieneral Assembly, shall -be held on the | | third ‘Thursday in October next. The ob- | | ject of this, ordinance is to enable the peo- | ple to vote at the usual time in August upon the Covstitution as amended, and | when its ratification is made by the people, and the Governor hag issted his proclama- tion, that persons who are candidates for the General Assembly, and for Governor, may go before’ the people. Of course, it would be folly to hold these elactions at the same time when the Constitution is sub- jection, without we knew that the Consti- tution would be ratified by the people. This ordinance, however, is not irrepeala- ble. The legislature may repeal it, if it sces proper, hereafter. Many of your readers will doubtless be glad to learn that, the Military Commission in session here have at length brought their labors to a close, in the trial of: Major Gee, and much better pleased when they are informed that he has been unanimously acquitted. He is yet in confinement, as the action of the Commission will have to be submitted to the President. No one has any fears as to the approval of the ac- tion of the Court-martial by Andrew Johnson. When Major Gee applied for a wait of habeas corpus, praying that he might be relieved from a trial by the military, on account of the proclamation of the Presi- dent, many regretted that his application was refused; but the result of. the trial must satisfy his friends that such a course would have been of less advantage to him and to the country generally, than his tri- umphaat acquittal by the military. If he had been turned oyer to the civil author- ities, it is hardly probable that any bill would have been found against him. The North would have complained—would have said that justice and the gallows had been cheated out of its victiin; but as it is, the | trial and triumphant acquittal gives the lie to the thousand and onc falsehoods which have been disseminated by unprin- cipled men, that Major Gee had been guilty of cruelty to prisoners of war. Readers of history will recollect that in the trial of the seven bishops of England for a libel, the Government came very near tailing to prove the publication of the libel in the county where it was alleged to have been committed. One of their counsel, (whose name I have forgotten) went into the discussion of some question of law before the Judges, to the annoyauce and against the wishes of his associate counsel. He, however, kept talking, until the Earl of Sunderland (1 believe) was brought into Court, who proved the publication.

Weknow they were not handed over to his poor, heart-broken mother, 80 that she might exclaim over his grave in a burst of agony, “Would to God I had died for thee! Oh Absalom, my son, my son.” Mr. Harris proceeded to express his ap- proval of some of the positions of the Pres- ident bu. his dissent from others. He said it was not objection to the Constitution that had caused Southern secession, but its per- version and violation. He ridiculed the affected fears of the South, which were as- signed as the excuse for opposing their re- cognition as members of the Union, The attempts to degrade the Southern people he said would not succeed. ‘They have lowered the standard of the Confederacy, but not their self-respect. Sad _ spectacle though it be, it will not diminish the Sou- therner’s tone that he can on his own soil walk over the graves of nearly three hun- dred thousand of his courageous cucmies ; and “Standing on the Yankee's grave, He willnot deem himself aslave.” (Sensation.] At this point the entire House gathered around Mr. Harris, and listened attentively. ‘The aisles and spa- ces were all filled. Mr. H. argued that the attempt to pro- duce equality of the races would not suc- eced because opposed to nature, and would only serve to establish a war of races in which the negro will perish. In answer to the claim of superior enlightenment and Christianity for the North, he said : Mary She was tried by a court-martial.

Mike Larkin, Saxon, and Peter Fagen, nig, dockcted for a miscegenation rumpus, were the first sinners up to-day. It ap- peared from the evidence elicited, that Pete desired to explain to Mike from the Con- stitutional Amendment, that he, (TPete,) notwithstanding his color, was ‘‘a man and a brother for a’ that and a’ that,” but Mike wouldn’t ‘see it in those lamps,” where- upon Mr. (Eagan grew very indignant and threatened to knock Mr. Larkin higher-n a kite. With these facts before the court, “the court knowed herself,” and assessed Pever Eagan for a V., and allowed Mike Larkin to skedaddle. One of the old city ‘home guards,’ hav- ine waxed'warlike under the belligerent influence of ‘pine top,’ fired off his ‘boom- tags’ in the strecta to tet yanks and kan garoos know that there was one patriot in the old town yet. His Honor informed the gentleman that Gen. Lee having’ sur- rendered some time ago, this corporation was now in statu quo ante bellum, and he should be obliged, therefore, to demand Ove dollars for his hostile demonstration. The “veteran” responded and left the court-room somewhat possessed with the idea that time are not now “as they used to was.” William Hopkins came “to town” last Monday, to attend the County Court, and procure a little copperas, indigo, and “cot- ton truck” which his better half had com- missioned him to purchase. On Wednes- day he visited the celebrated refreshment saloon in “‘ Paddy’s Hollow,” in the back room of which he formed the acquaintance of whisky punch for the first time in his life. Now Billy knew all about huckle- berry and persimmon brandy, corn juice, apple-jnck and such like—he had even luxuriated in “Chinaberry”—but never in all his born days had he tasted anything that did his heart good like cold whiskey punch. In vain did his friends caution him against the deceptive nature of the seduc- ing compound ; Billy had had a taste of lemon and sugar, and he wasn’t to be weaned from his punch, so he kept piling “on the drinks until the whiskcy asserted its supremaey, and laid Mr. Hopkins out on the pavement as cold as a wedge. While reclining on the bricks, the sun, which was intensely hot, began to operate upon his “craw” and in a few minutes our hero began to cast up his accounts in the gutter to the very great disgust of a fas- tidious policeman, who immediately pried eur hero to a perpendicular, and as “ the creat Aineas did the aged Anchises bear Dp through the flames of ‘Troy upon his shoul- der,” so, in like manner, did the knight of the star kindly carry Mr. William Hop- kins, countryman, to the calaboose for pre- sentation before His Honor to-day. ‘he court very patiently examined all the-facts in the case, and inasmuch as it was the defendant’s first experience with whiskey punch, Billy was mulcted for $5 only—“‘a very small ‘punch’ remarked the Judge, for such a big drunk, Mr. Hop- kins.” CARRIED FROM THE FrEeLp.—Yester- day afternoon one of Uncle Sam’s men ‘struck old North Carolina applejack some- where in the market, and becoming enam- ored of the famous ‘tar-heel beverage, he poured down the ‘fluid’ until he rocked to and.fro with great violence.

This paragraph is going the rounds of the papers in the North, and we can as- sure the “very reliable” correspondent from Washington that it is false. North Carolina, no matter what her fu- ture condition may be, will never consent to submit quietly to the degradation which the Radical element of Congress would impose upon her. Her honor is still un- tarnished, and will ever remain so; and while we have very little confidence in the firmness or ability of the Convention now in session in Raleigh, yet we do not be- lieve that even they, were. the present Congressional demands submitted to them, vote for or approve them.

The Undersigned, Themselves Members of the Sabbath School. propose to commence in the city of Paleigh, or about the Ist of next May, “THE SUNDAY SCHOOL BANNER.” And in the commencement of this little work of love, being boys, ourselves, may we not appeal to every Sunday School boy, and girl in North Carolina to come up promptly to aid the undertaking. In our own State, there are very many Sabbath Schools, and from the best ieraaton we have, the scholarship is large and increasing, and it is froia them we look for that pesioness which is necessary to improve and keep floating, this native stan- dard which we propose fur their benefit. It - is not for pecuniary gain that the BANNER,” is established ; it has for its aim higher ob- jects, and if we suceeed in our enterprise, it will be to us in after life a source of great sat- isfaction to know that, in our boyhood days, we gave a helping hand to Sunday Schools,: the preparatory Schools for places of high trust and position, in the work of our Heaven- ly Father. Its name sufficiently indicates the object which isto control its editorial conduct. There is necessity however for the remark that it will not be denominational, but alike open to all the Sabbath Schovis of this State for con- tributions, in which there is no spice of secta- rianism. The “BANNER” will be issued monthly on handsome type, clear white paper and will contain fourteen columns reading matter, quar- to length. We trust sufficient encouragement may be offered to justify the undertaking.

The Hon. Dayip L. Swany, of the Uni- versity of North Carolina, writes a letter to a friend in Georgia, containing some in- teresting facts, Whidh we cull for the bene- fit of our readers. ¢ Tp ideas of unlimited time aud bouidless's baffle the grasp of the humatwintellect. “ We feel this ina- bility in relation even to computed time and measured space. The distance of the sun from the earth, ninety-five millions of miles ; and that d cannon ball coming at the rate of four “hundred miles an hour, from the nearest of the fixed stars, would not reach the earth in five hundred and seventy thousand years, are facts of this character. That the earth is a sphere nearly 8,000 miles in diameter and 25,000 miles in circumference—that the area of its surface is equal fm round numbers to two hundred millions of square miles, one- fourth of which is land, and three-fourths water—are details which encumber the memory. for a time, but are soon forgotten or inaccurately retained, and from which we derive no distinct definite ideas. Is there no method by which we may gain tangible ideas of the comparative extent of the surface of the earth, and thet i of it which we call our country? By re- sorting to a systematic scale of compari- sons, useful information may be imparted. For example, the area of the State of North Carolina, in round numbers, is 50,000 squire miles. From a knowledge of its surface, derived from observation, concep- | tions may be formed, more or less satisfac- tory, of its extent. But may not such con- ceptions be impressed more distinctly, vi- vidly, and durably, by regarding North Carolina as a unit im a system of geogra- phical computations and comparisons? At the organization of our Government, in 1789, our territory was a million of square miles, or a fiftieth of the globe. After the purchase of Louisiana, it was two millions, or a twenty-fifth. Aud at the ratification of the treaty of Gaudaloupe Hidalgo, it was three millions, or about the seventeenth of the globe. At the first era, North Caro- lina was equal to a twentieth; at the se- cond to a fortieth; and at present, to a sixtieth of the Union. The globe might be divided into a thousand States of equal extent with North Carolina ; into seventeen kimpires as large as the United States, which could be divided into sixty States as large as North Carolina. The State of North Carolina is equal in extent to the half of Italy, once the mistress of the world; to rhe half of Prussia, the fourth of France, the fith of Austria, the fortieth of European Russia, and the seventieth of Europe. North and South Carolina and Virginia, are equal in extent to England, the most powerful Empire the world has ever known. Palestine, the most ancient and interesting of historical nations, simi- lar in configuration to New Hampshire, is about equal to the extent of Maryland, and is somewhat larger than the fifth of North Corckina Greece, ag d by Hexr- EN, contained 29,600 square miles. “South Carolina has 28,385, or three-fifths of North Carolina. Greece and Macodonia eom- bined under ALEXANDER, were somewhat smaller than North Carolina. Attica, re- nowned above all the Grecian States, and with an intellectual supremacy wider and more durable than the Roman Empire, was a little triangle of seven hund square miles, similar in outline and equal in ex- tent to the county of New Hanover, which embraces an area of a seventieth of North Carolina, or a seven thousandeth part of the land surface of the globe. These comparisons may be rendered more impressive and expressive by appeal- ing to the eye, exhibiting them similar to the manner that the comparative heights of mountains and lengths of rivers are delin- eated on modern maps. Assuming North Carolina as the unit, she and England would be represented by the central circle, or parallelogram; Prussia, by including double; France, quadruple : ‘and Austria, quintuple space.

The whole expense of the Government during the four years of the administration of Joun Quincy AvAmMs, which the South complained of as extravagant, was $49,- 313,213, and less than the Aemdreth part of the expenditures of the Confederate and Federal Governments, daring the four years of the fraternal strife. The public debt of the United States was mainly cre- ated hei the three years war with Great Britain. It reached its maximum in 1816.

For a time they met the public aim in this re~ ~ gard; why could they not continue to Jo 80 as formerly? Why permit a grinding monopoly to slip between them and the people? It looks _ very much as if the railroad companies had © © gone into a sort of copartnersbip with the Ex. press Companies for the purpose of fleecing the people. For if you complain at an office, of an Express bill, the officers will throw the blame on the railroads. If you goto the railroad offi- cials with your complaint, they will show you their freight lists and tell you that they are not - <4 blame; and thus it runs. Between the two you are fleeced, notwithstanding each is pre-~ pared to offer the most plausible of all reasons in exoneration from blame. It devolves upon the Legislatures, as the guardians of the people’s welfare, to take both Railroad and Express Companies in band, aud comyel them to subserve the public on terms at once reasonable and just to all concerned, as a means of preventing popular indignation against such outrages as these. A PART OF THE SCHEME KEPT OUT OF VIEW. The Washington correspondent of the iP - New York Commercial Advertiser (Rep.) f writing upon the assamptioh that the _ proposed amendment will be concurred in by the House says, the italics being his own: “The Radicals have accomplished what they desired to do at the outset— delay the admission of Southern mem bers.” That is it exactly. If every State of the South were to-morrow to ratify _ the proposed amendment to the Consti- tution they would be as far as ever from representation in Congress. The Star _ Chamber plan does not propose to admit members on the ratification of this amend- ment, Very far from it. The question ' of representation will still be open, and » ’ ie to be settled by bill. The amendment is,dn fact, only one of three measures reported by the Star Chamber Commit- tee and together forming its scheme. They say: “To this end, they offer a joint resolution for amending the Consti- tution of the United States, and the two several bills designated to carry the same into effect.” The first of these bills seeks to make every State in the Union change its Constitution and laws so as to confer negro suffrage and establish perfect ne- gro equality in all things. The second bill proseribes and renders ineligible to -. office under the Government all the lead- |... ing and most intelligent men of the Sonth. These portions of the Congressional scheme are jast now kept out of view. Our Dead in Baltimore.—A letter trom Baltimore, speaking of the late strawberry festival, gotten up by the la- dies of that city for the benefit of the Southern poor, has the following para- graph : “A number of beautifal bouquets from North Carolina and from Church Uill, Richmond, came one day too late; and on the gvening of the days on which they were received, I accompanied some friends who have charge of several graves of Confederate soldiers fa our beautiful Greenmount Cemetery, and “they decorated their last resting places with them.

A THOROUGH FAMILY MEDICINE | ‘Great Oaks from little acorns Grow.’ The worst diseases known to the human race spring from cavses so small as to al- most defy detection. The volumes of scien; tific lore that fill the tables and shelves of the medical fraternity only go to prove and elaborate these facts. Then guard yourselves while you may. The smallest pimple on the skin is a teil- tale and indicator of disease. It may fade and die away from the surface of the body, but it will reach the vitals, perhaps, at last, and death be the result and final close. Maggiel’s Billious, Dyspeptic and Diarrhea Pills cure where all others fail. While Burns, Scalds, Chilblains, Cuts, and abrasions of the skin, Maggiel’s Salve is infallible. Sold by J.

Src. 7. Be it further ordained, That the Clerks of the several County Courts, if requested so to do by the plaintiffs, sixty days before the Spring Terms, 1867, of the Superior Courts, shall'transmit to said Spring Terms certified copies of the judg- ments in actions of debt, covenants, as- sumpsit or account entered on the dockets of their Courts, together with the writs of fieri facias or venditioni exponas issued thereon, and shall issue notices thereof to the defendants, which notices shall be served at least thirty days before said Superior Courts. At the Spring Terms aforesaid, the Courts shall on motion order the said judgments to be entered on the minute dockets, provided the same were not dormant when transmitted from the Gonnty Courts, and on such entries being made, the said judgments shall be taken and held to be judgments of the Superior Courts and writs of fieri facias and vendi- tioni exponas may issue, as provided in section 10 of this ordinance, following the writs transmitted from the County Courts and preserving the liens, as if issued by the same Court. - Bre. 8. Be it further ordained, That the Sheriff in each county shall return all writs of fieri facias and venditioni exponas issued from the County Court on judgment in actions of debt, covenant, assumpsit or of justice, aud grant emancipation to the Catholies of the British Empire. Thus was verified in the short space of a little over a year the truth of Lord Holland’s predic- tion, that * Free Constitutions and large ex- clusions cannot subsist together; that the con- stitution must destroy them or they will de- stroy the Constitution.” As it was in England, so it will be here. In a short time the constitution will destroy this exclusion, or it will destroy the constitu- tion, and we do not believe that the constitu- tion will be destroyed. The Radicals will never carry the contest that far—they could not if they would. We believe that the con stitution will live, and that the country will be come greater and more prosperous under it than ever, and that it will soon destroy this exclusion. Let our people, then, by a prudent | course render all the aid they can to PREsI- | DENT JOHNSON and our Northern friends, for upon them we must chiefly rely for deliverance. ~~ From the National Intelligencer. The abandonment of the projected con- | ference of the leading powers at Paris, and the failure of the London Consolidated Bank, serve to revive the -subsiding panic in England. The financial effect of actual war on the continent was a subject of spec- ulation in England.

Washington, June 22.—The President sent into Congress to-day the following message in relation to the segoustruction amendment to the Constitution = To the Senate and House of Seeprescnta- tives :— I submit to Congress a report of the | Sceretary of State, to whom was referred the concurrent resolution of the 18th inst. respecting a submission to: the Legislature _of the States of an additional article to the Constitution of the United! States. It will be seen from this report that the Seeretary ‘of State had, on the 16th imstant, tranr- mitted to the Governors of the several States certified copies of the joint resolu- tion passed on the 13th instant proposing an amendment to the Censtitution. Even in ordinary times any question ot ease the proceedings shall be subject to the | amending the Consti:utiow must be justly regarded as of paramount importance.— This Ay aren at the present time is en- hanes by sha fos bes the approval of the President ; and that of the thirty-six States which conatitute the Union, eleven are excluded from = repre- sentation in either house of Congress, al- fe though, with the single exception of Tex- 'as, they have been entirely restored to all their functions as States, in conformity with the organized law of the land, and have appeared at the National Capitol by Senators and Representatives, who have applied for and have been refused admis- sion to the vacant scats; nor have the sovereign people of the mation been afford- ed an opportunity of expressing their views upon upon the important question which the ameddment involves. Grave doubts, therefore, naturally and justly arise as to whether the aetion of Congress is in harmony with the sentiments of the people, and whether State Legislatures elected without reference to such an issue should be be called upon by Congress to decide respecting aie ratification of the proposed amendment. Waiving the ques- tion as to the Constitutional validity of the proceedings of Congress upon the joint resolution proposing the amendment, or as to the merits of the article which it sub- mits through the Executive depdttment to the Legislatures of the States, I deem it | proper to observe that the steps taken by may obtain relief. | the Secretary of State, as detailed in the Sec. 19.

At any rate, there will be no further demand for specie in those countries. The gold de- mand in England will subside, and the drain from the United States to England and Germany will cease.

On verdant banks my Mary sat, *Mid buttercup and daisy— And I reclined without iny hat, And felt enthrained, but lazy. Bright foilage waved our heads above, ‘And many a songster twittered ; The streamlet, like our “course of love,” Ran smoothly on and glittered. Simple, yet e’en sublime our fare, am sandwiches I’d bought her ; Ca erry, too, my love had there, She likes it mixed with water.) Deeply we quaffed our fill of joy, Deeply our wine in glasses ; The ham was.good—Can ought annoy When time so blithely passes ? Stern. Fate! as thus in calmest bliss My love and I sat cating, She paused—what sudden blight was this? My heart ’gan wildly beating. Breathless\T asked, “Why, why that tear— That,cheek 80 brightly flushing— Phat Chatic brow, go white and clear, ' Deep asthe sunstt blushing. “That voice 80 | j soft and low, Now tremulous and broken ; Say, whence this dead o’erwhelming woe, ‘00 fearful to be spoken 1 Oh, tell me—tell me quick—the cause!

It was the mustard did it.” It appears that two hundred and fifty millions of United States bouds are held ir: Germany, Only a portion of these will be returned, and at the present rate of gold they coutd not be profitably exehaiged.

Starting out upon this unsound hypothesis, the eonspirators resolved that no Senators and Represen- tatives from eleven States whose inhabi- tants were concerned in the recent rebel- lion should be admitted to seats in’ Con- ress until after 1668 ! This rebellion is the key-note to the ob- stinate secusal of Congress to almit to their righiful seats Senators and Represen- tatives whoze loyalty was never doubted, and to the organized oppos'tien in Cor - gress to what is known as ‘'yE PREsI DENT’s plan of restoration. Referring to the various pretences ax- signed by the Radicals for excluding Sou- thern representatives, the Jtepublican de- clares “that none of these reasons co:trol the question a single hour. Only the idea that an unrepresented State cannot have electors of President and Vice President does I” . Repudiating as an absurdity the theory that the electoral voice of a State depends upon its fall and actual representation in | Congress, instedd of upon the number of presentatives to which the State is enti- tled, the Republican says that the conspi- racy has yet another feature. It is held that if the Southern States should send in their electoral votes, the simple refusal of the President of the Senate to open the re erclusion. “Bhe comments of the Republi- can tipon this Ate Worthy to be pondered : “We cannot contemplate any attempt to stifle the eleetornl voice of a State by such means ecithout the most painful appre- | hensions. We greatly mistake the temper of our people #f it would not provoke a con- | flict quits as ‘irrepressible,’ if not as bloo- dy, as that whicit has just terminated.” i —— Secretaries of the Treasury.

High School, on the 17th inst., and other important matter. This address is what was to have been. expected from its author, and will be read with interest. It is marked with his aseustomed ability, and breathes the right spirit—that of harmony and conciliation. These remarks, on the condition of the coygtty were made at the close of a somewhat subject of education by way of digression, and é 3 it y ti g aE on the | shirt ‘ibe it 8 the the State. For that purpose it will be submitted to them in August, and if it should be rejected there will be no Lieu- tenant Governor to elect. Why, then, bring out candidates for an office which has in fact no existence, and which may never have an existence at all. Imagine how ludicrous a figure some of our leading men would cut by becoming candidates for Lieutenant Governor now, if the people in August should decide against the creation of the office at all. We think aspirants had better remain quiet, and that the press had better cease agitating the question until the people are heard from. If the people should adopt the new Constitution in Au- gust—as we hope and believe it will—it will then be time enough to bring out a candidate for that office, and until that time we shall not express our preference. ae Resources of North Carolina. The United States Commissioner of Im- migration having recently addressed a let- ter to Gov.

To His Excellency, the Governor of North Carolina : Sir :—Reports have been received by this Company from Europe, that efforts are made there to dissuade the Europeans from immigrating and settling in the Southern States, by circulating statements that the European settl:rs in the Southern States are treated innumanely ; which can be re- futed successfully only, by referring the Europeans to the statutory laws of the re- spective Southern States, relating to the mode of acquiring property, and to the civil and political rights and privileges secured to the new settlers or forcigners locating therein. To enable the Company to do this task effectively, you are most respect- fully requested to furnish it with copies of such laws of your State, or to refer it to such other authentic coilections thereof, as are actually in existence and in force in your State. _ A statistical information of your State resources, of the climate of its various lo- calities, and of agricultural adaptedness of their soil, would be very desirable also ; for the misrepresentations referred to extend even to these objects. As the object of this request is to obtain from you a weapon to enable this Company to defend the interests of your State and of its landholders, it is expected that this lib- ae will be excused. erewith you will be pleased to find our charter organization, and a newspaper con- ining the expression of our determination South in obtaining immigrante. T have the honor to be, Very Respectfully, Your Excellency’s obd’t. serv’t, P. C. WRIGHT, President. to STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA, Executive DerartMent, Raleigh, Juve 13th, 1866. P. C. Wrigut, Esq. Pres. E. A. & H. Company: Sir :—In response to your letter of the 8th instant, I write you substantially the same facts contained in a letter, of this date, to the United States Commissioner of Immigration at Washington. Geographically, North Carolina is sitna- | ted half way between New York and the! Gulf of Mexico, being included between | the parallels of 344 degrees and 364 de-| grees. It extends fromthe Atlantic const | region; five hundred miles westward, stretching | more than one hundred miles beyond the | Blue Ridge Mountains, and contains an area of 50,000 square miles, having there- fore the same extent as the State of New York. ‘hie territory divides itself natur- ally into thtee well marked sections:, On the West, the mountainous plateau having an elevation of 2500 feet above the sea, and being traversed by several chains of fundamental law of the rivers, while in the middle and wes- tarn regions the soil is mainly of granite orien, and represents every grade of sandy and clayey loam of various fertility. THE CLIMATE has also a wide range, being tempered on the seaboard to something like the mild- ness of that of the Gulf States, while in the mountain region it approaches the rig- or of New York. ‘In the middle section, which constitutes the larger part of the State, and represents the average climate, the mean annual temperature is 69 degrecs (Fahrenheit)—the mean Summer tempera- ture 75 deg., mean Winter 43 deg., ex- treme Summer (diurnal) 89 degrees, aver- age absolute maximum 99 degrees, extreme Winter, (diurnal) 20 degrees, average ab- solute minimum 12 deg. The annual fall of rainis 45 inches. ‘The number of clou- dy days in the yearis 130; rainy days 60. TUE VEGETABLE PRODUCTIONS are very various. The most important are wheat, corn, oats, rye, potatoes, sweet po- tatoes, peas, rice, cotton, tobacco, turpen- tine, grapes and fruits. Wheat and corn are produced with facility and abundance iu all parts; rye, oats, pota‘o:s flourish in the middle and Western regions; rice, sweet potatoes and peas in the Eastern ; tobacco in the middle; cottonin the South- ern counties of the middle and in the Eas- tern section; turpentine and pine lumber are peculiar to the East. ‘The fruits most extensively and largely cultivated are the apple, peach, pear and cherry, represented by numerous varicties. No pait of the Continent is better adapted to ‘these than the middle and Western regions. The princtpal grasses are the orchard, herd’s, timothy and blue, to which must be added clover and lucerne. All these flourish in the middle and Western regions, and some of them grow wild; hence, stock raising is easy and profitable. The stock chietly raised are horses, mules, cows, sheep and hogs. The grapes usually cultivated, be- sides foreign varieties, are the Scupper- nong, Catawba, Lincoln and Isabella, all natives of the State, the first three being excellent wine grapes. The Scuppernong is peculiar to the Eastern section. The following abstract, from the United States Census report, for 1860, will best show the productions aud capabilities of the State : Live Stock, 3,326,000 An. prod’t.

The amount invested in the manufacture of cotton is $2.250,000; lumber $1.000,000; turpentine $2.000,000; iron $500,000 ; wool $350.000. FISHERIES abounds in the sounds and rivers of the4 eastern counties. The species of fish mostly taken are the herring, shad, blue, fish, mullet, and rock. e number cf barrels annually packed for market 1s about 100.000, on the waters of Albemarle Sound. Considerable quantities are packed at oth- er points. MINERALS. Ths most important of these are coal, iron, gold, ecpper, silver, lead, plumbago, limestone, mai ble, agolmatolite, soap stone, magnesia, whet-stonea, grind-stones, roof- ing-slates, porcelain clay and fire clay.— The coal is bituminous, and exists in two beds, situated reapectively 100 and 200 miles from the coast, on Cape Fear River and Dan river. It is abundant, accessible, and of good quality. Iron ore, of excel- taining gold also,) traverses the central portion of the Stata. lent quality, abounds in all parts of the State, the principal seat of its manufacture being on the Cape Fear, Catawba and Yad- kin rivers. Gold is found in almost all parts of the State; especially in the middle the annual product, for many years, has been $260,000. Copper aninopatcasa in the middle, northern and western coun- ties. Plumbago is found in great abun- dance near the capital, and again in the western region ; marble in the middle and western; and marl everywhere in the eas- tern sectiona.

FeLtow-Cirizexs :—We have just emerged from a long, cruel and most deso- lating war. rugged and horrid field of Luttle. “ And there ley the steed with his nostrils all wide, But thegueh them there rolled not the breath of hx pride, And tle foam of his gasping lay white on the tarf, And co!d as the spray of the rock-beating serf." “And there lay the rider diatorted and pale, With the dew on his brows and the gore on his mail And the tents were all pillaged, the banners all gong, The lances unlifted, and the trumpets unblown.” But yesterday we beheld the lurid ers and emoking embers of our towns an cities. Our cattle, from more than a thou- sand hills and homesteads, were driven away or destroyed—our barns and _ gran@- ries pillaged—our houses rifled and bure- ed—our persons, and those of our loved ones, often insulted and sometimes out- raged, while tens of thousands of the good, and the brave fell upon the field of strife, to rise no more, and sleep the sleep which knows no waking, except that of the trum- pet of the resurrection. To-day, we be- old the physical, intellectual and moral wrecks of the conflict scattered around us. Our private enterprises and public works, political, educational, agricultural, profes- sional or otherwise, are paralized, and in many instances vitally injured. Our finan- ces, including our school funds, completely wrecked. Thousands of those who have survived the unnatural conflict are maimed and helpless for life, while our social fabric has dustained the tremendous shock of har- ing four millions of slaves, occupying a most subordinate and menial position, sud- denly emancipated and thrown upon socie- ty, upon terms of freedom and equality. | In many respects we are poor indeed. any of us, to begin life anew— to divest ourselves of old notions, preja- dices and habits, and build up our private fortunes, and our diso i social fabeio, under new, untried and discouraging cir- cumstances. Private enterprise and ener- gy must now assume much, that has here- tofore been accomplished by incorporated associations and State munificence. ‘This may, perhaps in the end result in much good. The thoughts of our people will be turned to a proper appreciation of the bles- sings of education, from beholding the des- olations which ignorance—with her con- comitants of vice, superstition and crime— muet engender, in the absence of educa- tional facilities, and society may emerge trom the desolations of these times, to a brighter and more endearing future. I do not presume to divine what Provi- dence has yet in store for us; nor do I be- lieve it to be the duty of a christian people which have resulted in their defeat. Almighty, who doeth his will among the armies of heaven and the children of men is every where. His ways, although often mysterious and inscrutable, are not always so. He purifies the elements by the storm and the nations by the sword, and over- turns and overrules all for the general, uni- versal ultimate good. Who car say that we cannot safely rest in His hands; and Frances a, ZA ft-t' © tion na} Europeans from immigrating and settling | Hut yesterday, wo beheld the | either to be greatly solicitous on this point, | }q or undul anxious to exculpate themselves | from all blame, in regard to the causcs | The | 5 car that nothing short of it prevent the ultimate mirghshen of the ra- ces, or the banishment of our own race from the land of our birth and the graves of our sires. But let me not be misunderstood. We must take care of ourselves before we can take care of others. But if the freedman can save anything by honest industry to enable him to educate his children, in schools seperate and distinct to themselves, I see no good reason why we should trans- fer to the people of the North the office of imparting that instruction which we are so much better entitled to give. But, I re- | peat it, we must first look to ourselves.— ' Our own children must be cared for, and same protection of persoy and property an- | the poor orphan children of the war. Let def the laws of North Carolina as her nat physical elepationa. reign around us; it tive citizens—and where they are as indus- | can be endired and may ultimately be re- |paired. Let social troubles environ us; as highly esteemed—many such oecupy- | these too can be tolerated for a time and and may give way to prudence ard perse- verance. But we cannot, we must not per- j mit our children to grow up in ignorance and vice. The blight and the mildew, the avalanche and the storm pass away with the changing seasons and may not return ; but ignorance and vice grow stronger and more more violent as time waxes old, and respond to no medication but the surgery of extirpation itself. The march of armies has ceased ; let the march of intellect go on. If necessary, let our bodies be less su acres fed, and gaily attired, that our children may be fed with intellectual aad spiritual food. If our common schools cannot be resuscitated, let teachera be em- ployed in every neighborhood by ‘Vvolunta- ry associations. Let the halls of our Acad- emies and Coll be open, and stand, open; but above all, let the Church, in these days of @emoralization and spiritual declension, stand firm and assert her mili- tant power, and we may look with confi- dence for oug regeneration and disenthral- ment. - History—our own history—furnishes us with examples for our encouragement and emulation. Bancroft tells us “ when New England was poor, and they were but few in number, there was a spirit to encourage learning.” ‘The University of Harvard arose and flourished by the exertions of an indigent people, for, says the same histo- rian, “ once at least, every family, in each of the colonies gave to the college at Cam- bridge twelve pence, or a peck of corn, or its value in unadulterated wampumpeag.” Wheeler cites Martin as authority for saying that the end of the royal govern- ment in North Carolina in 1775, “ litera- ture was hardly known, and that there were in the whole province, but two schools, those at Edenton and Newbern. This, however, must be a mistake, because we read, on the next page of Wheeler’s histo- , that “the Rev. David Caldwell, about e year 1767, opened a school in Guilford county, and his log cabin served for many years to North Carolina, as an Academy, a College and a Theological Seminary.”— But there were men of education and intel- ligence—intellectual giants—in those days. Even the masses, perhaps, were better ed- ucated, considering their oppertunities, than they are atpresent. The explanation is easy ; children were taught at home; parents and guardians followed the custom which became a law in New England, and would ‘not suffer so much barbarism, in their families, as not toteach their children, and apprentices so much learning as might enable them perfectly to read the English tongue.’ At the close of the revolution the people had no money ; in this respect our present situation very much resembles theirs. But look at the vast results which they accom- plished. By the year 1793, the comner- stone of the University was laid; and be- fore the late war not only was a school fand of millions of dollars accumulated, and a common school affording extraordinary advantages, brought to the door of almost jevery child in the State, in its length and breadth, was studded over with the beauti- j fal adornments of High Schools, Acade- taies and Colleges. The obstacles in our | Way, inthe accomplishment of like achicve- | Menta, are not greater than they were with our fathers. The blighting effects of the te conflict, and the veneration our peo- ple feel for its heroes, cannot be greater than our fathers endured and felt, but they acted upon the principle that ‘ “The warrior’s name, Tho’ pases and chimed hy every tongne of fame, Sounds less harmonious to the grateful mind, Than he who fashions and improves mankind.” — If we would achievelike results, we must follow like counsels, and put forth corres- ding exertions. But let us not despair of the Republic. “ Sometimes it is said that man ¢annot be MPrI_ lo @a Gree: a 7 4 ¢ ovr ost A, ae ‘ for nearly four centufies hen came eh Saxon, who after a contest of a century and a half, firmly established himself u ou British soil, and forever stamped the name of Anglo-Saxon upon a people uni- ted by coercion. Next came the Dane, who cemented this union by the imposi- tion of a like yoke, and the perpetration upon the Anglo-Saxon of atrocities far more cruel than the Saxon had-imposed upon the English. This union was inten- sified by the advent of the Norman, who after another conflict of a hundred and fifty years, during which the English suffered the most intolerable oppression, completed his conquest and seated himself upon the English throne. After the lapse of nearly five centuries more, during which the Sax- on superceded the Norman line, and the kingdom was torn and distracted between the rival houses of York and Lancaster, the head of the first Charles was brought | to the block, and the commonwealth estab- ' lished under Cromwell. Finally in 1688, the great revolution oceurred which placed a Dutch prince upon the English throve, and consummated the fifth conquest of the English people. Thus, we sce that England, good old England, whose people at this moment, sereani! enjoy more frecdom than any oth- er ae the face of the globe—renowned not less for the arts of peace, than the tri- umphs of war—for the rendWn of her bards, historians and statesmen, than for the love and affection of her sous—England, upon whose empire the sun never sets, has for more than eighteen hundred years, grown in greatness, in strength and in freedom, notwithstanding her conflicts and vicissi- tudes. And every true Englishman to- day, is proud of Hampden, and Pym, and Cromwell, and points to magna charta, which her sturdy barons at Runnymede wrested from imbecile tyranny, as at once the evidence and the source of her true greatness. And may we not hope that when the noise and tumult ef our. unhappy conflict shall have subsided ; when the passions, prejudices and resentments of the hour, shall have passed away and reason shall have fully resumed her calm and peaceful sway, some great hearted historian—some American McCauley—will arise who will deal out impartial justice, alike to Davis and to Lincoln, to Lee and to Grant, and above all, who will rescue the memory of the great and the good Jackson, from any unhallowed aspersions ? “His spirit wassimple, grand and pure; * Great to conceive, to do or w endure; Yet the rough warrior was, in heart a child, Rich in love's affluence, merciful and mild. His sterner traits majestic and entique Rivalled the stoic Roman or the Greek; Excelling both, he adds the Christian name, And Christian virtues make him more than fame.” The past is gone and it comes not back again; but we can, and we should walk by the light of its experience. The pres- ent is ours ; it is an hour for discretion and judgment, for forbearance and charity.— The future is before us, and hope yet re- mains in the box of Pandora; let it beckon and enspirit us on, althoughJt should be as deceptive as the mirage in the desert. In the pathway of nations over the sands of time, as in the pilgrimage of the solitary traveler, there are caravans stations— oasis, with their cooling “ahaa: green swards and limpid, gushing fountains, to allure, to inspire Sat to refresh. * Let us then be up and doing, With a heart for reid fate ; Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and w wait.” LATEST NEWS.

It is unnecessary, in this place, to con- | sider the merit of Mr. Doolittle’s amend- |ment. It is quite enough for our present | purpose that Mr. Sherman ‘believed it to and hear him assuring them that they will be ‘be right in principle,’ and yet felt himself well entertained if not edified and instructed. bound to vote against it ‘to sustain the ac- 4 ae mee ‘Ropprry.—We learn that the dwelling House of Mrs. M.

If Mr. Sherman was a man of inconsid- erable note, or one distinguished among | his political fellows as specially shameless and unscrupulous, perhaps his avowal that | he holds the obligation to,serve his party | paramount to the duty which he owes to his country as one of its sworn public ser- vants might be passed over without much comment, as betraying a lack of conscience, striking indeed, but individual and excep- tional. He is one of the ablest of the Re- publican Senators, with a larger experi- ence in public affairs than most of them, and with a better reputation for courage, independence, and honesty. When, there- fore, he confessed that he must needs vote against an amendment to the Constitution b which he ‘believed to be right in principle’ because it conflicted with the schemes of his patty associates, we ar@Mot to suppose that he is the only gentleman in the pres- ent Congress who has sacrificed his con- victions of the right on the altar of faction. He simply spoke ovt what others less bold and more crafty choose and strive to con- ceal. He put into words a truth which scores of Radicals attest only by their ac- tions. It has been made manifest more than once during the present session of Congress that the measures of Thaddeus Stevens were as distasteful to some of the Repub- licans on the floor as the insolent harangues with which he introduced and advocated them. Mr. Raymond, of New York, for instance, has delivered elaborate speeches | to show that some of these measures were , conceived in iniquity, and were hopeless 'for good.

In many fields it is 80 strongly matted in the rows that the grass cannot be destroyed without destroying at thus: Labor, 60 per cent. of the old enpply ; |. the same time half the cotton. I think the greatest injury to the growing crop will be found to be from the grass; and, on the present prospect, half of the former average crop would be a liberal estimate for this section, and we are probably much the moat favored region east of ‘Texas. But i) while, just now, I could not put the cro of this section at over half old receipts, i while now 1, 500,000 bales would seem a liberal estimate for the whole crop, yct cot- ton has great powers of recuperation, and spring estimates of crops are not worth meuh, Thus backwarduess of the scasou may be compeneated by a fall corrspouding- ly late, and very favorable giowing seasons may cause the cotton so to spread that it will fruit all the better in conseque.rce of the room and air afforded by a defective sstand. Dry weather now would énable most planters to get a start on the grass. “Whilst, therefore, I admit the prospect now to be worse than I have ever known it, and the chances to be decidedly against a half crop for the country, yet I wish to say as decidedly, that a fair crop for the land planted ia by no means impossible.” a The Richmond Examiner says that in the event of the adoption of the Howard amendment to the constitution, of the late fourteen slave holding States, their aggre- gate representation would be 50 instead of 75 98 now.

POETICAL, | Phe Confederate Flag. BY HARRY L. FLASH, OF GALVESTON. Four stormy years we saw it gleam, A people’s hope—and then re-furled, Even while its glory was the theme Of half the world. The beacon that, with streaming ray, Daazled a struggling nation’s sight— Sceming a pillar of cloud by day, Of fire by night. They jeer, who trembled as it hung, Comit-like, blazoning the sky— Aud heroes, such as Homer sung, Followed it—to die. It fell—but stainless as it rose, Martyred, like Stephen, in the strife ; Passing, like him, girdled with foes, From death to life. Fame’s trophy, sanctified by tears ! Planted, forever, at her portal ; Folded, true hat then? Four short years Made it ithmértal. Do you think if I’d a baby, That I'd let him pull my hair? Do you think I'd put on collars Just to let him goil and tear? Do you think I'd call it pretty When he bites his little toe? Yet I’ve known some silly mothers With their babes, do just so. Do you think I'd set him crying Just to see his cunning frown ? Do you think I'd set him walking Just to see him tumble down ? Would I call my baby pretty, When he'd neither teeth nor hair ? Yet I've known some silly mothers Wixh their babies, think they are. Would I buy him drums and rattles, Would I watch him most delighted Break my mirror all to smash ? Would I smother him in flannels, Just because his voice was low? Dose him up with their bella donna ? Silly mothers treat them so Would I think his brow Byronic, Just because it was so bare? And his head Napolconic In ite shape—though minus hair? Could I trace the marks of genius In his eyebrows, arched and low, Yet I’ve known agme silly mothers, With their babies, think just so. Woald I think my baby destined To become a man of men, And te govern and contro) them By the might of sword op pen ! I dare aay these noisy babics Play the very deuce—I know ; And I’ve seen the wisest women, With their babies, think just so. tate a eee A circular addresged “to the Conserva- tive Republicans of Iowa,” calling a State Cenveation for the purpose of organizing a to be known as the “National Union Party,” has made its appearance. The following is a paragrapi; from the circular : “We have heretofore t:een Republicans, | but being unable to co-operate with the | radical and dominant element of that party in a lime of policy i rated since the close of the war, and whieh we believe to be fraught with the most disastrous con- TO) Sith bi by. s@0 “one, but may give The plain, simple, unadorned record of terrible report of his successor in office, Dr. Cooper. hile it is tifying to know that, since the report of te latter, the rigors of Mr. Davis’ prison-life have been considerably miti;ated, it is difficult to conceive that any ay State prisoner, Nec taes a cause of the magnitude for whieh Mr, Da- vis is called upon to suffer,—could have been the victim of such horrible brutality as marked the earlier stages of his confine- ment. Such recitals as that which we subjoin, —and which is but one out of many,—re- call the picture which the historian he left us of the terrible prison-hours of the hap» less Louis XVI. STANTON’S IRONS. yet bitterer trial was in store for the proud spirit,—a trial severer, probably, than has ever in modern times been inflicted upon any one who had enjoyed such emincre. This morning Jefferson Davis was shack- led. It was while all the swarming camps of | the armies of the Potomac, the Tennessee and Georgin,—over two hundred thousand bronzed and laurelled veterans,—were pre- paring for the Grand Review of the next morning, in which, passing in endless suc- cession before the mansion of the Presi- dent, the conquering military power of the nation was to lay down its arms at the feet of civil authority, that the. fullowing scene was enacted at Fort Monroe: Capt. Jerome E. Tiflow, of the Third Peansylvania Artillery, ris- oner’s cell followed by the blacksmit the fort and his assistant, the latter carry- ing in his hands some heavy ‘and harshy- rattling shackles. As they entered, Mr. Davis was reclining on his bed, feverish and weary after a sleepless night, the food peat near to him the preceding day still ying untouched on its tin plate near hig bedside. “Well!” said Yr. Davis as they entered, slightly raising his head. “I have an unpleasant duty to perform, sir,” said Captain Titlow ; and as he spoke the senior blacksmith took the shackles fom his assistant. Davis leaped instantly from his recum- bent attitude, a flush passing over his face for a moment, and then his countenance growing livid and rigid as death, He gasped for breath, clutching his throat with the thin fingers of his right hand, and then recovering himself slowly, while his wasted figure towcred up toits tull height— now appearing to swell with indignation and then to shrink with terror, as he glan- ced from the captain’s face to the shackles —he said slowly and with alaboring chest: “My God! You cannot have been sent to iron me?” “Sach are my orders, sir,” replicd the officer, beckoning the blacksmith to ap- proach, who stepped forward, unlocking the padlock and preparing the fetters to do their office. These fetters were of heavy tron, probably five-eighths of an inch in thickness, and connected together by a chain of like weight. I believe they are now in the possession of Major-General Miles, and will form an interesting relic, “This is too monstrous,” groaned the prisoner, glaring hurriedly round the room, as if for some weapon, or means of self- destruction. “I démand, Captain, that you let me see the manding Officer. Can he pretend that pits to secure the safe qustody of a w “Yt could serve no purpose,” replied Captain Titlow ; “his orders are from W ash- i @s mine are from him.” “But he can telegraph,” interposed. Mr. Davis, eagerly ; “there may be some mis- take. No such outrage as you threaten me with is on record in the history of na: tions. Bog him to telegraph, and delay until he answers.” “My orders are peremptory,” said the officer, ‘“‘and admit of no elay. For your own sake, let me advise you tosubmit with atience. Asa soldier, Mr. Davis, you Enow I must execute orders.” “These are not orders for a soldier,” shouted the prigoner, losing all control of himself—“They are orders for a jailor— for a hangman, which no soldier wearing a sword should accept! I tell you the world will ring with this disgraee, The war js over, the South ia econgpered; I have no longer any country but America, and it is te the country, we propo:'s to ¢s- for the honor of Ameriea, as for my own uences tatltish & separate organization to be known » honor and he I plead against this de- gs the Nation Uyion Party.” gradation, “Kill me! kill me!” he cried, Dr. Craven sustains and corroborates the | On the morning of the 23rd, of May, a} of | \ shackled feet to the floor. shackles are required | C BW old | "2. .Petsons whose names are sent on for man, so guarded and insuch a fortis this?” | T * ISBURX, en i oe ae bel ne righ heed the bath bedside, his ri resting onthe be of it, the brawny sock shel tiadv an 4jt- tempt to. slip'one of'the shackles oVer the aatlos 80 raised, but, a8 with’ the ‘velic- mence and strength which frenzy can im- part, evén to the weakest invalid; Mr. Da- vis suddenly seized his assailant and hurl- ed him half-way across the rooni. On this Captain Titlow turned, and, pee- ing that Davis had backed against 'the wall for farther resistance, began to remon- strate, pointing out in brief, clear language, that this course was madness, and that or- ders must be enforced at any cost. ‘Wh compel me,’ he said, ‘to add the further in- dignity of personal violenee to the necessi- ty of your being ironed.’ ‘I am a prisoner of war,’ fiercely retort- ed Davis; ‘I have been ‘a soldier. in !the armies of America, and know how to tie. Only kill me, and my last breath'shall be a blessing on your head. But while I have life and strength to resist, for myself and for my people, this thing shall not’ be done.’ | Hereupon Captain Titlow called it a sergeant and file of soldiere from the next ‘room, and the sergeant advanced to adize | the prisoner. Immediately Mr. Davis few on him, seized his musket and attempted | to wrench it from his grasp. Of course such a seene could have but one isue. There was a short, passionate scuffle. Ina moment Davis was flung ap- on his bed, and before his four powerful assailants removed their hands from hin, the blacksmith and his assistant had déne their work—one securing the rivet on the right ankle, while the other turned the key on the padlock on the left: This done, Mr. Davis 'av for a moment asif in a stupor.

If Mr. Sherman was a man of inconsid- erable note, or one distinguished among his political fellows as specially shameless and unscrupulous, perhaps his avowal that {he holds the obligation to serve his party peonecs to the’duty which he owes to is country as one of its sworn public scr- vants might be passed over without much comment, as betraying a lack of conscience, striking indeed, but individual and excep. tional. He is one of the ablest of the Re- publican Senators, with a larger experi- encé in public affairs than most of them, and with a better reputation for courage, independence, and honesty. When, there- fore, he confessed that he must needs vote against an amendment to the Constitution which he ‘believed to be right in principle’ because it conflicted with the schemes of his party associates, we are uot to Suppose that he is the only gentleman in’ the pres- ent Congress who has sacrificed his con- Victions of the right on the altar of faction. He simply spoke out what others less bold and more crafty choose and strive to con- ceal.. He put inte words a truth which scores of Ridicald attest only by their ac- tions. It has been made manifest more than once during the present session of Congress that the measures of Thaddeus Stevens were as distasteful to some of the Repub- licans on the floor as the insolent harangues with which he introdueed and advocated them. Mr. Raymond, of New York, for instance, has delivered elaborate speeches to show that some of these measures were conceived in iniquity, and were hdpeless for good. Mr. Dinas has done like- wise; and so, at different times, have tnan others.’ But when schemes which they had,spent their breath in opposing reached a vote, they have uniformly failed to mus- ter the courage requisite to do the bidding of conseionce in defiance of the commands of party.» The frown of Stevens has been potent cnongh to coerce their ‘support of measures which his logic had failed to con- and reason alike told them were wrong. It is‘imposstble to estimate how many oth- ere, wha were unable or did not choose to speak ia protest, felt their restive, rhetori- cal associates, and faltered as they did in the deeisive moment! is When we consider that Congress fs em- ‘ployed upon no less 'a work than the re- construction of this Government, and has undertaken to remodel the law given ns by our fathers ; that the changes which are under digctission ‘are of the most vital char- { acter, and look to @ revolution in our polit- ical system at least as radical as that ef- fected when the ‘Constitution was substi- tuted for the Articles of Confederation, it isindoed astartling and melancholy thought, that the spirit of partizanship has'subvert- in the great-couneil of the nation: Fancy, in the convention'which frained the or: stitution, Roger!

It is held uat if the Southern States should send in their electoral votes, the simple refusal of the President of the Senate to open the certificates would suffice ‘to effect t os 0 exctesion. ‘The comments of the: cam upon this are worthy to be pondered : “We cannot contemplate any attempt to stifle the electoral voice of a State by such means without the most painful appre- hensions.

This address is what was to have Been sléled! by the Convention, but the Consti. tution must first be ratified by the people before it becomes the fundamental law of the State. For that purpose it will be submitted to them in August, and if it should be rejected there will be no Lieu- tenant Governor to elect. Why, then, bring out candidates for an dffice which has in fact no existence, and which may never have an existence at all. Imagine how ludicrous a figure some of our leading men would eut by becoming candidates for Lieutenant Governor now, if the people in August should decide against the creation of the office at all. We think aspirants had better remain quiet, and that the press had better cease agitating the question until the people are: heard from. If the people should adopt the new Constitution in Au- gust—as we hope and believe it will—it will then be time enough to bring out a candidate for that office, and until that time we shall not express our preference. eg Resources of Morth Carolina, The United States Commissioner of Im- migration having recently addressed a let- ter to Gov.

Company: Srr :—In response to your letter of the Sth instant, I write you substantially the *me facts contained in a letter, of this date, to the United States Commissioner of Iinmigration at Washington. Geographieally, North Carolina ia aitna- ted half way between New York and the Gulf of Mexico, being included between the parallels of 344 degrees and 364 de- grees. It extends from the Atlantic coast five hundred miles westward, stretching more than one hundred miles beyond the Blue Ridge Mountaina, and contains an area of 50,000 square miles, having there- fore the same extent as the State of New York. This territory divides itself natur- ally inte three well marked scetions: On the West, the mountainous Fetes having from ita anthor, and will be read with | tributaries j 4c 3k, a Sa od is various ; alluvial and accu- malatoons abound near the ponte along the rivers, while in the middle and wes- tarn regions the soil is mainly of granite origin, and represents every e of sandy and clayey loam of various fertility. THE CLIMATE bas also a wide range, being tempered on the seaboard to something fike the mild- ness of that of the Gulf States, while in the mountain region it approachvs the rig- or of New York. Inthe middle section, which constitutes the larger part of the State, and represents tho average climate, the mean annual temperature is 60 degrees (Fahreuheit)—the mean Summer tempera- ture 75 deg., mean Winter 43 deg., ex- treme Summer (diurnal) 89 degrees, aver- age absolute maximum 99 degrees, extreme Winter, (diurnal) 20 degrees, average ab- solute minimum 12 deg. The annual fall of rain is 45 inches, he number of clou- dy days in the yearis 130; rainy days 60. THE VEGETABLE PRODUCTIONS aro very various. ‘The most important are wheat, corn, oats, rye, potatoes, sweet po- tatocs, peas, rice, cotton, tobacco, turpen- tine, grapes and fruits. Wheat and com are produced with facility and abundance in all parts; rye, oats, pota‘o:s flourish in the middle and Western regions; rice, swect potatoes and peas in the Eastern; tobacco in the middlc; cotton inthe South- ern countics of the middle and in the Eas- tern section; turpentine and pine lumber arc peculiar to the East. .The fruits most extensively and largely cultivated are the apple, peach, pear and cherry, represented by numerous varieties, No pait of the onnten is better adapted to these than the middle and Western regions. The principal grasecs are the orchard, herd’s, timothy and blue, to which must be added clover and lucerne. All these flourish in the middle and Western regions, and some of them grow wild; hence, stock raising is easy and profitable. The stock chietly raised are horses, mules, cows, sheep and hogs. The grapes usually cultivated, be- sides foreign varieties, are the Seupper- nong, Catawba, Lincoln and Isabella, all natives of the State, the first three being excellent wine grapes. The Scuppernong is peculiar to the Eastern i The following abstract, from the United States Census report, for 1860, will best show the productions and capabilities of the State : Live Stock, 3,326,000 An. prod’t.

The amount invested in the manufacture of cotton is $2.250,000 ; lumber $1.000,000; turpentine $2.000,000; iron $500,000 ; wool $350.000. FISHERIES abounds in the sounds and rivers of the eastern counties. ‘I'he apecies of fish mostly taken are the herring, shad, bine, fish, mullet, and rock. The number of barrels annually packed for market is about 100.000, on the waters of Albemarle Sound. Considerable quantities are packed at oth- er points. MINERALS. The most important of these are coal, iron, gold, copper, silver, lead, plumbago, limestone, marble, agolmatolite, soap stone, magnesia, whet-stones, grind-stones, roof- ing-slates, porcelain clay and fire clay.— The coal is bitaminons, and exists in two beds, situated respectively 100 and 200 an elevation of 2500 fect above the aca, wad being traversed hy several chaius of miles from the coast, on Cape Fear River and Dan river. It is ghodane accessible, and of good quality. Iron ore, of excel- let quality, abounds in all parts of the Stace, the principal seat of its manufacture being on the Cape Fear, Catawba and Yad- kin rivers. Gold is found in almost all parts of the State ; especially in the middle region; tlre annual produet, for many years, has been $260,000. Copper mines abound in the middle, northern and western coun- ties. Plumbago is found in great abun- dance near the capital, and again in the western region; raarble in the middle and western; and marl ever; where in the eas- tern sections, A ebain of ailver and lead mines (con- taining gold also,) trawerses the central portion of the State. ROR NOW K Bi ee of news is about 70; The above statistics have been prepared, with much care, by the State Grologiat Prof. W. C. Kerr, whose information and research will vouch for their cutire relia- bility. You state that “reports have been re- ceived by your Company from Europe, that efforts are made there to dissuade the Europeans from immigrating and settling in the Southern States, by circulating statements that the European settlers in the Scuthern States arc treated inhumane- ly,” &c. Nathing could be more unfouuded than such a report, so far as this State ig con- cerned.—Citizens of foreign birth have the same protection of person and property un- der the laws of North Carolina as her na- tive citizens—and where they are as indus- trions and honest, they arc as thrifty and as highly csteemed—many such occupy- ing positions the most honorable and intlu- ential. To foreign settlers, of honest, ener- etic character, the State extends a cordial welcome; and, I can assure you, when such come, instead of being “tucated inhu- manely,”” they will be fered the same rights and privileges, and the same sup- port and countenance, enjoyed by our na- tive citizens, Very respectfully, Your cbedieit errant JONATHAN WORTH, Governor of N.C. tons Hon. J. @. Ramsay's Specch, At Olin Academy, Iredell (o., N. C., June Tth, 1866—voncluding remarks. FELLow-Citizexs :—We have just emerged from 4 long, cruel and most ire lating war. But yesterday, we beheld ragged and beri Akl oP bane * And there lay the steed with his nostrils all wide, Bat serv ifs there rulled not the breath of his pr And the foam of his reepien lay white on the turf, And vuld as the spray of the rock-beating eerf." “And there lay the rider distorted and pale, With the dew on his brows and the gore on his mail; And the tenta were all pillaged, the banners all gone, The lances unlifted, and the trumpets unblown.” But yesterday we beheld the lurid flow- ers and smoking embers of our towns and citics. Our cattle, from more than a thou- sand hills and homesteads, were driven away or destroyed—our barns and grana- ries pillaged—our houses rifled and ‘burn- ed—our persons, and those of opr loved ones, often ineulted and sometimes out- raged,, while tens of thousands of the good, and the brave fell upon the field of strife, to rise no more, aad plgp the sleep which knows no waking, except that of the trum- t of the resurrection. To-day, we be- hold the Porsicel. intellectual and moral wrecks of the conflict scattered around us. Our private enterprises and public works, political, educational, agricultural, profes- sional or otherwise, are ized, and in many instances vitally injured. ur finan- ces, including our school funds, completely wrecked, Thousands of those who have survived the unnatural conflict are maimed and, helpless‘for life, while our social fabric has sustained the tremendous shock of hav- ing four millions of slaves, occupying a most subordinate and znenial position, sud- denly emancipated and thrown upon socie- ty, upon terms of freedom and equality. In many respocts we are poor indeed.— We had, many of us, to begin life anew— to divest ourselves of old notions, preju- dices and habits, and build up our private fortunes, and our — fabric, under new, untried discouraging cir- cumstances. Private enterprise and ener- gy must now assume much, that has here- tofore becn accomplished by incorporated associations and State munificence. This may, perhaps in the end result in much good. The thoughts of our people will be turned to a proper appreciation of the bles- sings of education, from beholding the des- olations which ignorance—with her con- comitants of vice, superstition and crime— must engender, in the absence of educa- tional facilities, and society may emerge from the desolations of these times, to a brighter and more endearing future. do not presume to divine what Provi- dence has yet in store for us; nor do I be- lieve it to be the duty of a christian people either to be greatly solicitous on this point, or undul atxious to exculpate themselves from all blame, in regard to the causes which have resulted in their defeat. The Almighty, who doeth his will among the armies of heaven and the children of men is every where. His ways, although often mysterious and inscrutable, are not always so, He purifies the elements by the storm and the nations by the sword, and over- turns and overrules all for the gencral, uni- versal ultimate good. Who car say. that we cannot sefely reat in His hands; and lin ag wer Pahace | ek a micive, even againat pri tigs and powers,:to colonize him, ; I advise this be- cauge I fear that nothing short of it will | preyent the ultimate miscegation of the ra- ees, or the banishment of our own race from | the of oyr birth and the graves of our sires. tt let me not be misundoratood. We must take care of ourselves before we can take care of others. But,if the freedman ) can save auything by honest industry to ;euable him to educate his children, in | schools seperate and distinct to themselves, I see no good rexson why we should trans- ‘fer to the people of the North the office of imparting that instruction which we are so much better entitled to give. But, I re- peat it, we must first look to ourselves.— Our own children must be cared for, and the peor orphan children of the war. Let phyvical delegation reigu around us; it can be endured and may ultimately be re- paired. Let social troubles environ us; thesé too can be tolerated for a time and and may give way to prudence and perse- verauee. Bat we cannot, we must not per- mit our children to grow up in ignorance and vicv. ‘The blight and the mildew, the avalanche and the storm pass away with the ehanging seasons and may not return ; but ignorance and vice grow stronger and more more violent as time waxes old, and respond to no medication but the surgery of extirpation itself. The march of armies has ceased ; let the march of intelleet go on. If necessary, let our bodies be less su mptuously fed, and gaily attired, that our children may be fed with intellectual and apiritual food. If our common schools cannot be resuscitated, let teachera be em- ploycd in every neighborhood by volunta- ry associations. Let the halls of our Acad- emies and Colleges be open, and stand aa hajte-above--ally: let-the Church, in these days of demoralization and spiritual declension, stand firm and aseert her mili- tant power, and we may look with confi- dence for our regeneration aud disenthral- ment. History—our own history—furnishes us with examples for our encowragement and emulation. Bancroft tells us “ when New England was poor, and they were but few in number, there was a spirit to encourage learning.” ‘The University of Harvard arose and flourished by the exertions of an indigent people, for, says the same histo- rian, “once at least, every family, in each of the colonies gave to the college at Cam- bridge twelve pence, or a peck of corn, or its value in unadulterated wampumpeag.” Wheeler cites Martin as authority for saying that the end of the royal govern- ment in North Carolina in 1775, “ litera- ture was hardly known, and that there were in the whole province, but two schools, those at Edenton and Newbern. This, however, must be a mistake, because we read, on the next page of Wheeler's histo- 7 “the Rey. David Caldwell, about year 1767 ® school in Guilford county, and cabin served tor many years to North OC: as an Academy, a College and 4 cal Seminary.” — But | were men of education and intel- ligence—intellectual giants—in those days. Even the masses, perhaps, were bettér ed- ucated, considering their oppertunities, than they are at present. The explanation is easy ; children were taught at home; parenta and guardians followed the custom which became a law in New England, and would ‘not suffer 0 much barbarism, in their families, as not toteach their children, and apprentices so much learning as at ee enable them perfectly to read the English tongue.’ At the clove of the revolution the people had no money ; in this respect our present situation very much resembles theirs. But look at the vast results which they accom- plished. By the year 1793, the corner- stone of the University was laid; and be- fore the late war not only was ‘a school fund of millions of dollars accumulated, and a common school affording extraordinary adv. , brought to the door of almost every child in the State, in its length and breadth, was studded over with the beanti- ful adornments of High Schools, Acadc- mies and Colleges. The obstacles in our way, in the accomplishment of like achieve- ments, are not ter than they were with our fathers. The blighting effects of the late conflict, and the veneration our peo- ple feel for its heroes, cannot be greater than onr fathers endured: and felt, but they acted upon the principle that The’ eats on warrior's name, dren ies tetcniee saan Than be who fashions and improves mankind." If we would achieve like results, we must follow like counsels, and put forth corres- ding exertions, But let us not despair of the Repnblic. “Sometimes it is said that man cannot be ‘trusted with the gove hen of himself. — | Can be peek iets netration ot cite a with ‘tlie gdvern- ve we found angels in the form of Kings to govern him! Let history answer this question,” Let ug'ex- ercise Rekceamhes: forgiveness, pir) ey ch is et. bend of pare "and all nigy yet be well.

Next came the Dane, who cemented this union by the imposi- tion of a like yoke, and the tration upon the Anglo-Saxon of atrocities far more eruel than the Saxon had-imposed upon the English. ‘This union was ‘inten- sified by the advent of the Norman, who | after another conflict of a hundred and fifty years, during which the English suffered the most intolerable oppression, completed his conquest and acadeniosal upon the English throne. After the lapse of nearly five centuries more, during which the Sax- on superceded the Norman line, and the kingdom was torn and distracted between the rival houses of York and Lancaster, the head of the first Charles was brought | to the block, and the commonwealth estab- | lished under Cromwell. Finally in 168s, the great revolution occurred which placed a Dutch prince upon the English t rone, and consunimaced the fifth conquest of the English people. Thus, we sce that England, good old England, whose people at this moment, perhaps, enjoy more freedom than any oth- er upon the face of the globe—renowned not less for the arts of peace, than the tri- umphs of war—for the renown of her bards, historians and statesmeu, than for the love aud affection of her sons—England, upon whose empire the sun never sets, has for more than cighteon hundred years, grown | in greatness, in strength and in freedom, notwithstanding her conflicts and vicissi- tudes. And every true Englishman to- day, is of n, and. Pym, .and Cromwell, ‘and points to magna rta, which her sturdy barons at Runnymede wrested from imbecile tyranny, as at once the evidence and the source of her true greatness. And may we not hope that when the noise and tumult of our unhappy conflict shall have subsided ; when the passions, prejudices and resentments of the hour, shall have passed away agd reason shall have fully resumed her calm and peaceful sway, some great hearted historiaun—some American McCauley—will arise who will deal out impartial justice, alike to Davis and to Lincoln, to Lee and to Cirant, and above all, who will rescue the memory of the great and the good Jackson, from any unhallowed aspersions } “ His spirit wasrimple, grand and pure; Cireat to conceive, to 40 or to endure; Yet the rough warrh . was, in heart a child, Rich in love's affluence, merciful and mild. His sterner traits majestic and antique , Rivalled the stoic Roman or the Greek ; Excelling both, be adds the Christian name, And Christian virtues make him more than fame.” The past is gone and it comes not back again ; but we can, and we should walk by the light of its experience. The pres- ent is ours ; it is an hour for discrction and judgment, for forbearance and charity.— “he future is before us, and hope yet re- maine in the box of Pandora; let it beckon and enspirit us on, although it should be as deceptive as the mirage in the desert. In the pathway of natious over the sands of time, as in the pilgrimage of the solitary traveler, there are caravan stationa— oasis, with their cooling shades, green swards and limpid, gushing fountains, to allure, to inspire and to refresh. “ Let as then be up and doing, With a beady Laden f fate ; Still achieving, pursuing, Learn to labor and to parti fenmvedinan' -+neti LS LATEST NEWS.

Pablishers & LEWas arc! ar JOHN 9. WA t perth 0 I's creek, and i a de- e ys ral “tition of the J bs ip Manly was opposed. He © aeiRestcken the kane ty in fifth can object to taking the oath as it stands, we cannot understand. ‘The Na- tienal and State Constitution are alike parts of our Federal system. - Each is supreme within its legitimate sphere, and we fully appreciate the sentiment of Mr. Manly, when he says “that when State rights is swept away irrevocably, liberty goes with them.” We shall ever be as ready as Judge Manly, or any other man, to guard against any encroachments upon the re- served rights of the States, but the States have no rights, and can have no rights, “inconsistent with the Constitution of the United States.” The Constitution of the United States, which, we are informed in the preamble to the instrument itself, was made by “the people of the United States,” is by its own terms “the Supreme law of the land.” — In respect to the powers granted to it is sovereign and is supreme over the State Constitutions, while the State Govern- ments are sovereign in the exercise of the powers reserved to them. The Federal Constitution and the laws of Congress made in pursuance thereof, being “ the su- preme law of the land, any thing in the * Constitution or laws of any State to the contrary notwithstanding,” the General -Government has thg power to control the State Government, so far as to keep them within the limits of the rights and powers reserved to them in that_instrument, but no further. “This has been decided by our Courta, both State and Federal in hundreds of instances not necessary to be cited here. Any provision in the State Constitution which is inconsistent with that of the Uni- ted States would be a nullity, and to re- quire a man to take an oath to support such Constitution without reservation, would be to require him to commit a perjury, inasmuch as he would either be compelled to violate such oath, or his oath to support the Con- 6titution of the United States, which was a part of his amnesty oath, and which he is also required by the Federal Constitu- tion to take before he can hold any State office. Mr. Ferebee, of Camden, was also a warm supporter of Mr, Manly’s motion, and his principle reason, as he said, was that the Howard amendment would probably be incorporated into the Constitution, and he did not wish to swear to support such a Constitution as it would then be. We con- fess to great surprise at the ignorance of the Constitution, manifested by Messrs. Ferebee, Manly and Conigland on this oc- easion. They have been for some years, we believe, members of the bar, and have also been for a number of years in the Leg- islature, or the Conventions of the State, and should have becn perfectly familiar with it. They have already taken that very oath. The fifth article of the Consti- tution of the United States provides gwo ways fOr proposing amendments to the same, apd declares that whenever amendments shall be “ratified by hy islatures of three-fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three-fourths “ thereof, as the one or the other mode of Fatification may be proposed by the Con- gress,” they “ shall be valid to all intents and purpuses as a piri of thisConstitution,” — i this Constitution,” which Mr. Ferebee, Mr. Manly and Mr. Uonigland, have alrea- dy taken an oath to support, maintain and defend, together with the Union of the States thercunder, and which requicrs them to take it again before they can hold any State offive. We are as much opposed to the Howard Amendment as Mr, Ferebce, or any other man is, or can be, but if it is incorporated into the organic law of the land constitutionally, we conceive that our oath binds us to respect it as such, and we shal] submit. We shall carry our opposi- tion to that point, and after that—if it ever shouldbe ratified by three-fourths of the States, whieh we do not believe—we shall geek our remedy in the Union by agitating for & in a Constitutional way, and ww fpost 50 maa for office who onti- ly to his State. He gloried only in being a South Carolinian. In reply Mr. Clay said that he gloried in being an AMERICAN C1TIzEN. He said that he owed no allegiance to the State of Kentucky, inconsistent with the allegiance which he owed to the Government of the United States—that he never took an oath cept with asaving of the superior allegiance which he owed to the National Goveru- ment, when acting within the sphere of its State could absolve him from his obligations of allegiance to the Federal Government— he said that the Gencral Government was entitled to his allegiance amd could com- mand it in spite of his State. Such were the teachings of Mr. Clay, but how differ- ent are they from those of some of his pro- fessed disciples at this day. We would not censure men too severely because under the most trying cireumstan- ces their acts were different from the doc- trines which they had preached for a life time. Thousands of them, ng doubt, act- ed honestly and patriotically, but now that the tumult has ceased, and they profess to have returned to the point from which they wandered, they should remember what the doctrines were which they formerly taught, and not boast that they are the disciples of a school whose teachings they completely setatnaught. 8 ‘ - The aisctssion was im showing the sentiments of those who par- ticipated in it, as Mr. Manly’s amendment would not really have made any important change, though it was so intended by its mover. This was fully shown by Judge Howard, whdse speech, as reported, docs him much honor. Still retaining his opin- ions as to what the framers of the Consti- tution intended it should be, yet as others thought differently and had established their construction, he intended to honestly abide by the decision. He believed that the question of secession was settled, and said it was preposterous to suppose that any man could now hold any State office without first taking an oath to support the Constitution of the United States. He vo- ted for the amendment, not because he wished to avoid the necessity of taking such an oath, bat because he preferred the old oath—which is a part of our re- vised code, and not a part of the old Con- stitution as some seemed’ to suppose— which contained the very words proposed to be stricken out. ‘ —_—__—_—ao——————_ THE NATIONAL UNION CoN. . VENTION. We publish to day the call of the Execu- tive Committee of the National Union Club, for “a National Union Conven- tion, of at least two delegates from each Congreesional District of all the States, two from each Territory, two from the Dis- trict of Columbia, and four delegates at large from each State,” to be held at the city of Philadelphia on thesecond Tuesday of August next. : We need not assure our readers that we most heartily approve of this movement, as they will doubtless remember that we have on various occasions strongiy recommend- ed it. We have been in favor for some time of the formation of a “ National Union party ” with President Johnson atits head, based upon the restoration policy of the President as its only platform. After re- | storation shall have been fully accomplish- | ed, other issues of a national character will, | in all probability spring up, upon which na- tional parties may be permanently organ- ized without any reference to old names or defunct creeds, The old Whig»party has for some time ceased to éxist. he Dem- ocratic party has failed to engraft its doc- trines of paramount State Sovercignty, and the right of secessiog upon the’ Con- stitution, by the result of the late war, which has at least given a@ practical con- struction to that instrument which must forever preclude them. The Republican party was organised golely upow the slave claration of war on the part of Prussia, ah Constitutional powers.

It is very neatly gotten up and print- ed on fine card board, convenignt for sus- pending for use. | . By the use of this Calendar, the day of the ‘week answering to any gifen day of the mo:.th, on any day of the month an- swering to any given day of the week, can readily be found, trom the year 1600 to any future period. The price of it is one dol- lar. however, reas (e We transfer to our columns from the Standard, the following interesting de- bate on the State Constitution ; ‘Lhe following section was read : “See. 9. Every person chosen or ap- pointed to any oflice or place of trust or scribed for a faithful discharge of its du- ties shall before entering on such duties, tzke an oath or affirmdtion to support, maintain and defead the Constitution of the State not inconsistent with the Consti- tution of the United States.” Mr. Manly of Craven held that this made a material alteration in the form of the old oath required of officers, and he offered an amendment, which he said, would simply provide for the administration of the oath ag itnow stands and has stood since our Colonial days. Mr. Diek opposed the amendment of the delegate trom Craven. He deemed a change iu the old form of the oath of office neces- sary aud proper. He held that the form of the old oaths had done much to foster the spirit of State rights, to educate the peo- ste into the belief that the States were paramount to the general government.— ‘This baleful idea educated by such means into the minds of our people, had produced the late horrible war. Here the issue was made up—State sovereignty against the Union. It has been decided, we all know how. Then it is uscless to kick agains: the pricks, we must accustom ourselves to that decision, and conform our laws and our Constitation to it. The war had decided against State sov- ereignty—it had decided that North Caro- lina is subordinate to the general govern- ment. How then can‘any one, who ae- cepts the issue of the war fairly, refuse to swear to support the Constitution of this State, not inconsistent with the Constitu- tion of the United States, as this section. provides? It is the gist of the whole niaf= ter. He expressed himself decidedly in favor of the adoption of the section as it stood. . Mr. Manly replied. He denied th North Carolina was entirely subordinate to the general government. He said that she had certain rights, which belonged to her and not to the general governnent. That our system might be compared to the solar system, where all the planets moved on harmoniously, each in its proper sphere. He deprecated the tendency of the re- marks of the delegate from Guilford. He thought they fostered that growing spirit of centralization—which would annihilate State rights and establich over us a.strong, central government. He said that he would now warn this Convention as an old man and a close observer of events, that when State rights are swept away irrevo- cably, liberty goes with them. He said the tendency to contralization in this coun- try, was in strong contrast to the fecling among republications in Europe. There they labored for the decentralization of power.

He had lost the savings of fifty ‘years, ‘but he had willingly submitted and intended to abide the issue.

Be- tween the granting of further concessions aud the inauguration of another revolution, had but one choice—make the conccs- sions. We had fought once and been whipped. Let us confess it. He was for peace and harmony hereafter. Mr. Howard said he thought’ the discus- sion had given the question an importance which it did not deserve; and as he in- tended to vote for the amendment of the delegate from Craven he desired the Con- vention to understand the two propositions. The amendment proposed to retain the present oath which contains the very words proposed to be stricken out, and in addi- tion an oath of allegiance to the State. Seeing no reason for abridging the present oath he preferred the amendment. his veuereble with age, will be preserved.

This entertainment, which was repeated on Thursday night, was abrilliant success, whether viewed as a musical entertain- ment, as a feast, as a social party, or with reference to its object in a pecuniary point of view. The Hall was superbly decora- ted, and was filled with as much beauty, grace and loveliness, as,ever assembles in this part of the country. There was, on this, as ‘here was on a former occasion, some rivalry between different associations of | ladies; but the tables of all were so very elegant that we will not undertake to say that any one of them surpassed the oth- ers, but we hope we will be pardoned for saying that that of Mrs. Mock and Miss Green was all that could be desired, as we can testify, we having been invited by them to partake of their refreshments grat- uitously, and for which we return our thanks.’ Without saying that this enter-. tainment surpassed all others of the kiad which we ever attended, we will yet say that it was surpassed by none of them, and wethave attended many. We were promised a report from the managers in time for this issue, but it has not been received. OE anne Recoverep.—We arg glad to learn that the watch and money stolen from Mrs. Beard, on Wednesday night has been re- covered, andthe thiefsecured.

Curious Scene in a Church—-A_corres- pondent of the Baptist Journal, (Missori,) gives an account of adramatic sermon, which which though not quite equal to the famous dagger scene @f Burke, in the House of Commons, is yet worthy of a place among the illustrations of popular dreaching. His text was: “He that is without sin let him cast the first stone :” Last Sabbath as I stepped into the House of God, I head some (n> say that he had no tellowship for a rebel ia Church or state, coupling a profane word with the term. My blood was chilled in my veins, and the above text rushed tnto my mind like pealing claps of thunder. It was my lot to preach that day ; so I determined to use the the text to the best advantage, God being my hetper. I read a chapter, sang a hymn, and prayed. I arose from my knees, went out, and procured a stove of some four pounds weight. Coming back, I took my stand with stone in hand. Ali eyes were fixed on me. Some appeared to be frightin-d; others laid their hands on their revolvers, preparing for battlé as though “death or victory” were their motto, ~ f readatoud, “He that fs without sin let him cast the first stone,” and raised the rock to the top of my head. ‘The peo- ple begah to louk frightened; but I. com- menced by examining myself by the golden rule, then weighed myself in the balance, and found that 1 was wanting, and boldly exclaimed: “ Iam a sinner and a rebel against the government of my God and king; I cannot throw this stone; I ask pardon of my God, and acknowledge my allegiance to God in the presence of all the people.” I then offered the stone to every inan in the house, but, to my astonishment, they all fell on their knees, in sobs and tears, one solid petition went up to God for pardon. [The above is commended to all pheri- saical patriots. ] SS ae Mergoric Exp osicn.—The Shreve- port (La. ) Southwestern reports the follow- ing:—Two gentlemen, a few days ago, while riding along the road, a short distance from this place, witnessed a curious occur- rence during theday time. A rain wascom- ing up, preceded by a slight sprinkling, when at a short distance aliead they saw a large ball of fire descend slowly from the clouds and affix itself to the trunk of a tall dead pine, at the heizht of a few. feet from the ground. Both called to each other sim- ultaneously to notice the strange object. which to use their own words, “blazed up where it stood like-a candle.” It so contiu- ued for a few secouds, when it suddeuly exploded with a tremeudous detonation, teaciig the tree into a thoneand splinters, and setting fire to the dortiton of the stump that remained. A considerable area was filled with falling foliage, and fragments scattered in every direction. Immediately pon the explosion a streak of fire wus seen shooting off horizontally from the tree, following the surface of tke ground, passing within fifty or sixty feet of them, aie of the character of a stream of lightning, as often seen descending from the clouds when it strikes. The sight was terrific in the ex- treme. The air became strongly impreg- nated with a pungent sulplurous odor. ar THE 23rp inst., (St John’s Day,) was a great day with the Masons in Yancy- vile. Acorrespondent of the Richmend Dispatch says: “Great preparations had been made by the hospitable citizens of Yancyville for a grand time, and they knew what they were about.—Forming the procession, the Ma- sons marched to a beautiful grove to the music of the old Twenty-fourth North Car- olina regimental band, where they were most cordially greeted by the Hon. John Kerr, who in his peculiarly felicitous man- ner, gave all a hearty welcome. ‘I'hen he introduced the oratcr of the day, the Rev. J. F. B. Mays, a baptist minister from South Carolina, who for an hour interested his audience with a most telling speech. After the speech, the ladies and the Ma- sons were invited to dinner—and such a dinner—everything to tempt the appetite, and in the greatest abundance. I suppose not less than six or eight hundred persons dined with the Lodge. The crowd was estimated at from fifteen to twenty-five hnndred persons.” ——~oor—_——_—— Wational Division Sons of Temper- ance of North America. [ Special Correspondence of Richmond Times.)

The Undersigned, Themselves Members of the Sabbath School. propose to cominence in the city uf Raleigh, on or about the Ist of next May, “THE SUNDAY SCHOOL BANNER.” And in the commencement of this little work of love, being boys, ourselves, may we not appeal to every Sunday School boy, and girl in North Carolina to come up promptly to aid the undertaking. In our own State, there are very inany Sabbath Schools, and from the best juformaleon we have, the scholarship is large and increasing, and it is from them we lovk for that patronage which is necessary to improve and keep toating, this native stan- dard which we prupose for their benefit. It is vot for pecuniary gain that the “BANNER,” isestablished ; it has for its aim higher ob- jects, and if we succeed in our enterprise, it will be to us in after Jife a source of great sat- isfaction to know that, in vur boyhood days, we gave a helping hand to Sunday Schools, the preparatory Schools for places of high trust aud position, in the work of our Heaven- ly Father. Its name sufficiently indicates the object which isto control its editoriai conduct. There is necessity however for the remark that it will not be denominational, butalike open to all the Sabvath Schools of this State for con- tribations, in which there is no spice of secta- rianism. bl The “BANNER” will be issued monthly on handsome type, clear white paper and will contain fourteen coluinns reading matter, quar- to ler gth.
