Judje Bynuiu ot the Supreme Court has filed a dissenting opinion in the case of the State ngainst the Richmond and Danville Railroad Company. "We learn from the News: Two en. gines, belonging to the Petersburg road were attached, at Weldon, for debts due the employees. Maj. "William Patterson requests us to announce his name as a candidate before the mass-convention, to be held on the 3rd of July, to nominate a dele gate to the Constitutional Convention. It is said that at the recent term of Forsythe Court th« Gripudjttry found a true bill agaiust Judge Cloud for as saulting a negro for singing a religious song! The Judge is nervous, you know. A son of Mrs. Ilnske of Hillsboro, while out squirrel hunting on last Fri day a week ago, accidentally shot his hand, while about loading ouc barrel of his gun,in a shocking manuer; the load tearing through the base of the thumb and lodging in the wrist. This we leatu from the Recorder. Mr. Willie Mills, a native ot Salisbury, but a citizen of Raleigh, died suddenly last Sunday evening a week fg >. H& was well up to ten minutes of bis death, lie was sitting on the steps when taken with hemorrhage, which produced death in a few minutes. Gov. Vance a short time ago delivered his lecture. ''The scattered Nation" in Raleigh,for the benefg of the young men wounded at t«ie Centennial at Charlotte. The Jewish citizens of that city present ed the Governor a handsomt gold watch and chain, in token of the ir ap preciation. Judge Mitchell has resigned. He was the only Judge in tbe State, of demo, cratic politics, up to the election last August. Old age and bad health led to his resignation. He has an unblemish ed reputation for high integrity* It is understood that Mr. Furchee, a republican, will be his successor. Mr. Furches is said to pos ess tbe requisite legal learning, and in every respect isas little objectionable as any of his party. Ou Thursday evening last, a little &f --ter sun down, the young mhn, Mr.j Trollitiger,in charge of the Jail, went in to look after the the prisoners. Two of them, William Gibson, a negro charged with stealing money from Col. J. Holt* and bis sons, Mud another negro, named Hank Freeland, charged, with stealing chickens from H. M. Ray, Esq., had gotten oat of the cage in which they were confined, and wnen Mr. Trollin ger walked aronnd the cage, they ran out at the door, through which he had entered, and hurriedly shutting it tl>ey bolted it on the outride, and—the Jailor was a prisoner. The two negroes then j ran down stairs into the lower part of the jail, and unfastened the back door, which waa secured by a bar and in the dusk ot the evening made good their escape, They have not been captured. The jailor raised a pit tiful cry of dis tress, which alter awhile was heard and he was released, but too late to give successful pursuit to the escaped ne groes. All that is to be done now is to settle some six months board bill for these two sovereigns. At the recent term of Halifax Court, Judge Watts left the Court to go to make a speech, at Nashville. He gave a capital case to the jury on Friday evening and left. The jury agreed, and were ready to render their verdict cn the same night, but there was 110 Judge, and the jury had to stay until Monday more than two days—to await His Honors return. The office holders are going crazy over the Constitutional Con vention. They fear for their interests. Why are the office holders so afraid of a Convention ot the people? Have they no higher leeling than to live off ot the people, and hold place and power for ever? No use " kicking against the pricks." At the sale of the Western North Carolina Railroad, at Salisbury, on the 22ud of this month, as advertised, Hon. A. S. Merriraon became the purchaser for his clie'nts at the sum ot eight hun dred and twenty-five thousand dollars. He transferred his bid to the Commis sioners tor the State of North Carolina and she will be the owner of the road. As soon as the sale is confirmed and the title perfected steps will be taken to push the road through to Asheville. Wo learn from the Nut Shell that an affray occured in Newborn last week •in which a white man by the name ot Watson was dangerously, and it is fear ed,mortally wounded b) a nesrro named Roberts. The white man was trying to quell a difficulty between the negro and a white boy, when he became involved, and received the feared f&tal blow from a bar of iron in the hands of Rob erts. The commissioner of the Land office at Washington is taking measures to dispose of the great number of land patentc in his office which have been ac cumulating since the days of President Monroe, and now number more than tnree hundred thousand. They will bo properly classified and sent to the differ ent land offices throughout the country for delivery to those for whomthey are intended. t 70 ~ A gold-headed cane disposed of in Raleigh, at 25 cents a ticket, each ticket holder to depositone vote for some minister in the city, aud the one getting the highest number ot votes to have the cane. The proceeds tlius realized are to be given to the relief fund tor the benefit of Messrs. Williams and Bing ham, the disabled artillerymen. So says the News. - . John Patterson, Express Agent at Rcidsviile, was arrested last week in Richmond, charged with embezzlement of funds t>f the Company. Patterson says that he is a few hundred dollars short but that he lent the money to friends, and they failed to return it, as they were to do, and hence his embar rassment. Hd is a young man of good family* At a general meeting of the stockhol der* of the Fayettevillo and tiold&boro Railway held in Fayettevilie June 17th the following officers were elected: Maj. IX G. Mcßae President, E. A. Bizzle Treasury, J. H. Myrover Secre tary, and Thomas J. Robinson Chief Engineer. This we learn from the Ral eigh News.

Paul, Hayne the distinguished Southern poet and writer will contribute month ly articles to the Morning Star, Wil mington, N, C. No more able paper comes to our office than the Star, aud this addition to its attraction and inter est will make it shine all the more brightly. It*s astonishing, says the New Orleans Bulletin, to see how little there is of some ladies iu these days of contracted skirts. And it is equally astonishing to see bow much there is of some oth ers. The Raleigh Sentinel says.—A negro convict at the Rock Quarry this morn ing knocked down tbe guard, a man named Best from Wayne county, seized the gun oat of his band, ran the bayo net tbroagh him, and off he Wfent. Tbe Professors of tbe University are religeously divided as follows: "Rev. Mr. Phillips and Mr. Graves are Praa- ; byterians; Mr Hooper and Mr. Kimb- . erly, Episcopalians; Mr Mangnm a Methodist; Mr. Redd a Babtist. Everybody would have one hundred and seventy-five dollars if all the prop erty in this country were to be equally divided. Itisnottobe divided, how ever, until there is enough to give every one Ave hundrd dollars. An admirably executed counterfeit five dollar note on the First Nation al Bank of Pax ton, 111., is being freely circulated along tbe liue of the Georgia Railroad. Skillful experts have been deceived by tliem. - THE GRADUATING CLASS OF 1859-'6O —The surviving members of the gradu ating class 1859-'6O of the University of North Carolina are requested to meet at th« Atlantic Hotel, in Beaufort,N.C., on Tuesday, the 3rd day of August 1860.
