In tbe Piedmont I section we know ih3t he is peculiarly) interested and ia- no county more than Cleve land, where he has spent portions of many summers. But his sympathies and knowledge are' both broad and deep, and he realizes the needs of ev ery portion of the State.) j j By birih, education and associa tion, a son of the Old North State, Major Stedman, while never ceasing ! i be a true North " Carolinian, has 'r -aliened his views by both) study ana travel. A student from early fuili, he is also a thorough man of iiuo world, and he has added to the lessons learned from bocks those that can be acquired i only among many men. and in varied climes. Few men are so well fitted by both study and observation j to grapple with the problems of. to! day, especi ally with the material development of this great commonwealth, a urao tieal realm in which a j wide know- led rie of modern methods and con-! mtions, of the experience of I many r.mn and many nations is go essential. Major Stedman is a practical i-iiiK-sraan. His political principles :ra those of Jefferson and Jackson, i'io with which the Democratic ty so thoroughly sympathizes, !l ujt a Bourbon, as the term is itimes aied, but looks to practi- vl results, to-condnotmsr the busi Jd of the State upon business prin ciple, to developing t.he resources of the State as a prudent man 'would develop his own. 1 j ile in, as we have 6aid, a. thorough Democrat. lie is more than this. He m thoroughly a worth uaronna uem onrat aud is entirely in line with the Nrth Carolina Democracy. (He is (-.liiy approached by the humblest in tit; land; and no man ever was less of a Ik'magoge. In fact, if he! has a fault, it is that he was too close to the opposite line. ! "And this, we think, is the sort of a mln thai we waot for; Governor of North Carolina, one who knows the i.ole State and all Us want?, and wio has ' learned the), lessons that o'.lier lauds and other men can teach, ohti who knows North Carolina as !it) is and sympathises with her, but c,ptw what she may become, one who h a (ttatesman and not a theorist, a m iu of the people and For the people, , but not a demogoge. $nch a man is Lii'ut.

It has been related in missionary annals that once upon a .time a heathen cook who was strongly at tached to the ancient faith,; having informed his converted mistress that there was no wood with which to get dinner, was quietly told: "Chop up Daon " The discarded idol oould not have served a better ' turn. It was with a feeling of horror some what akin to that of the cook at the suggestion of -his mistress that JudgeJKelley and the other high priests of protection listened when Representative Knute j Nelson, of Minnesota, stripped off one after an other the false pretenses in be half of the high tariff ) divinity. He showed not only that the claim that the tariff enhanoes the wages of labor was not true, but that the effect of the system has been to diminish the earnings of workmgmen by increas ing the cost of the necessaries of living. Id answer to tbe absurd pretension that the Country's pros perty has been due to an exorbitant and exhaustive system of taxation be pointed out the real sources of national progress and v greatness, The Minnesota member closed his speech with the -'declaration " that three-fourths of the Republicans of his State cordially shared his views.

Where in statins: an executor's ac count, objection is made to allowing him oredit for- payments made on judgments founded on .bonds pre sumably barred. . : ' v .; ' Held, That tbe obieotion need not be stated with the particularity used in pleading the statute. ; Held, That while an executor, be ing sued, may in his discretion plead or omit to plead a statute of limita tions, if he fails to set up the statute of presumptions, the payment of the judgment will not be allowed in his settlement - unless he can repel the presumption. In eases where too presumption operates, in order to re lieve the executor it must be shown that the presamption was untrue and that in faot the debt' had not been paid or satisfied; otherwise the pay ment of the judgment or claim will not be allowed him. : r out if the executor has personal knowledge or proof that the claim has not been paid, he need not make tne defense or the statute, for while he should protect the trust )fund against unjust demands, he is not re quired "to make his principal Bin in nis grave." . ':-.:, Held, That an executor who1 was also a devisee and was thus interested in preserving the assets against un just claims, may testify to a conver sation with the testator, in which the latter admitted that a debt falling within the presumption, had not been paid, and that he wished it paid. - .

The resolution heretofore offered by Mr: Riddleberger, to suspend so much of the rules as provided for executive sessions during consideration oi the fisheries treaty, was taken up, and Mr. Riddleberger called for the yeas and nays on agreeing to the resolution. - Mr. -Edmunds said that as the question was on agreeing to the resolution, he de sired to submit some observations to the Senate which 1 he did not care to submit to her Majesty's ministers just at present, fie therefore moved . that the galleries be cleared and the doors closed. The motion i was agreed to and tbe order at 1 o clock was executed. The Senate, at 8 10. p. m , after two hours spent in secret legislative session, opened its doors. During the secret session Mr. Riddleberger's resolution to consider the fisheries treaty! in open session was the onlv subiect of debate, but several Sen ators ventured to discuss nneay me merits of the treaty itself: being, however, called to order for so doing. Messrs. Edmunds and Hoar made a strong fight against the resolution. I TJoon motion of Mr. Butler the resolu tion was ordered to be referred to the Ccm mittee on Foreign Relations; only eight Senators voting in the negative Messrs. Farwell. Frve. Mitchell. Piatt. Plumb, Sawyer, Stewart and Teller. Mr. Riddle berger was paired and did not vote. There were 41 votes in favor of committal. After the public session was resumed, tbe Bond Purchase bill was taken up, and a vote was taken on Mr. Palmer's motion to recommit tbe bill. The motion was reject edyeas 20, nays 31. : Mr. Stewart s penning amendment nav ing been read, Mr.' Beck asked him to withdraw it for the present and until the bill should be reported to the Senate. Mr Stewart agreed to do so. and tnen mr. SDooner offered as a substitute for the whole bill the following: inat Dec. s oi the act making appropriations for sundry civil expenses of the government for the vear ending June 30. 1882. in these words, "that the Secretary of the Treasury may at any time apply the surplus money in the Treasury, not otherwise appropriated (or so much thereof as he may consider proper) for the purchase or redemption of United States bonds: provided, that bonds so pur chased shall constitute no part of the sink ing fund, but shall be cancelled, was in tended to be a permanent provision of tbe law: and the same is hereby declared to have been since its j enactment and to be now. in full force and effect. The substitute was agreed to without di vision, i M Mr. Beck then offered an amendment as an additional section, : which after being modified as suggested ; by Messrs. Stewart and Allison, provides that when the circu lation or anv Dortion thereof of any na tional bank, not in ! liquidation, shali be surrendered by the deposit oi united States notes i in ! I the Treasury or otherwise, and the same or any equivalent amount shall not betaken by other National Banks within thirty days. the Secretary of the Treasury shall pur chase at the maiket price an equivalent amount of silver bullion, in excess of the minimum monthly silver coinage, which shall be coined and used as provided for in the silver coinage bill of the 28th of ' Feb ruary. 1878. provided that nothing in the act shall alter or repeal the silver coinage act of 1878. i : I Mr. Sherman approved fully the sub stitute as agreed to. and thought it an im movement on the House bill; but he thought it better to postpone consideration of Mr. Beck's proposition till a more con venient season. - He l.was of the opinion that the coinage provision of Mr. Beck's amendment was not wise, and the number "of silver dollars already coined was - . too great- The discussion was "continued by Messrs. Stewart Plumb and McPherson, without action on the amendment offered by Mr. Beck, (and with the substitute for the bill still to be reported from the Com mittee of the Whole and to be voted on in the Senate.) ! ' i l - The Senate at 5.05 adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. - On motion of Mr. McMillan, of Tennes see, five thousand additional copies of the tariff bill and reports were ordered printed. Mr. Culberson, of Texas, Chairman of the Committee on the Judiciary, called up the special order, the Senate Direct Tax bill. - Mr. Foran. of Ohio, antagonized this with a motion that the House go into Com mittee of the Whole on the Pension Ap propriation bill.' '-I':'--Mr. Foran'a motion was lost yeas 95, navs 144. !: Mr. Wheeler, of Alabama, at the last moment, changed his vote from affirmative to negative, for tne purpose . oi mating a motion to reconsider the vote. . On motion of Mr. Reed the motion to reconsider was tabled yeas 157, nays 75. The House then went into Committee of the Whole for consideration of the special order. v -- ' ... . .. Mr. Oats, in opposing the bill, laid that the tax paid hi the Northern States with the exception of Delaware had been paid by the State assuming to collect it from the rjeonle and retaining 15 ner - cent, U was entitled to do under provision of the original bill." In the Southern States, after the war tax had been collected directly from the people, there had been- many irregularities in that collection. For the last twenty years, though the law remained unrepealed, no attempt had been made to enforce it; $17,500,000 had been collected, leaving but $3,500,000 uncollected. The fact that about one-eighth of the : tax re mained uncollected was the only pretense upon which the passage of the bill, which involved $17,500,000, was urged. He argued that under the constitution "Con gress had perfect ' right and $ower to lay) the direct tax; - and he denied the constitutional right of Congress to refund a tax which had been legally levied and applied. - A Democrat was not entitled to be considered as such when he- legislated outside of the constitution. The fact that his State would get a certain . amount of money would never influence bis . (Oats) action where there was - matter of sound Democracy and constitutional, government involved. If the House was determined to pass this bDL it should include Within its provisions one for the refunding of the cotton tax a tax which had been uncon stitutionally levied because it was a tar which in the very nature of things could not- be . uniform throughout the ' United States.- - i ,;: . ' Mr. Wheeler.regarded the proposed legisla tlon aa more pernicious than any which had ever before been introduced in Con gress. It is assumed that one Congress might levy a tax in order to refund an other tax levied by a preceding Congress. Mr. Jfiliott. of Sonth Carolina. ' favored the bill and gave instances of irregularities mute collection oi the direct tax in the Southern States, mentioning the faet that the entire town of Beaufort had been sold for the payment of the tax. rending debate the committee rose.' and the House at 5 o'clock took a recess until 8 o'clock, the evening session to be for the consideration of bills reported by the Com mittee on Military Affairs. . At the evening session the following bills were passed: Appropriating $200,000 lor tne construction of an arsenal at Co lumbia, Tenn.; and for tbe promotion of officers or the army after twenty years con tinuous service in one grade. After an eloquent speech by Mr. Hooker, of Miss., a bill introduced by Mr. Crain, of Texas, was passed for the retire ment of General Alfred Pleasanton, with the rank of Colonel. A bill was passed appropriating $15,000 for the construction of a road to the National Cemetery at Baton Rouge, La. I SENATE. Washington. April 4. The Senate took up the bill to reimburse depositors of the Frcedman's' Savings and Trust Company for losses incurred by the failure of that company. When the bill was last before tbe annate Mr. Vest had objected to th1 provision to pay "legal representatives" of depositor?, and Mr. Evarts had suggested an amendment or "personal representa tives." - Mr. George said he would like to see the money paid to the persons entitled to it that 1?. depositors or their heirs, executors or administrators, tie reared that under tbe terms of the bill claim agents would get powers of attorney, with large contingent fees, and thus the object of the bill would be evaded, i After debate on the proposed amendments had continued sometime, Mr. Piatt insisted on taking up the unfinished business (the bond purchase bill), and so the Freedman's Bank bill went over without action on any ol the amendments. The Sanate then proceeded to the consid cration of the House bill to provide for the purchase of U. S. bonds by the Secretary of the Treasury, the pending question be ing on Bit. Beca s amendment. After a speech by Air. Teller, in which. be said that the. silver question did not in any particular figure in the pending bill. thtit the amount of silver that would be coined under the Beck amendment would be insignificant and would have little or no influence on the value of silver, but it would tell the world that tbe great silver producing country of the world was satis fied that it did not make a mistake when it purely remonetiZ9d silver, and that step by step it proposed to go on until there was complete recognition of silver as a money metal in all respects with gold, Tbe Question was tasen on Mr. Beck s amendment and it was agreed to yeaa 37, nays 13. Mr. Keagan offered an amendment directing the purchase!and cancellation of bonds with one hundred millions of gold now in the Treasury for the redemption of legal tender notes. Alter a snort discus sion Mr. Reagan withdrew his amendment at the request of Mr. Beck, who said Mr. Reagan would have an opportunity to offer it to tbe bill "for the investment of certain sums in the Treasury." Mr. Beck Baid that the bill witn his amendment was a simple proposition to al low tbe President to use the surplus in buying bonds, and at the same time to take care that the present value of currency was not contracted. A long debate followed, in which Messrs. Sherman and Allison were the principal speakers. Mr. -Sherman devoted himself chiefly to a review and criticism of the fi nancial policy of the administration. Mr. Alcrherson moved to add to tne mil: "Provided that nothing in this act shall authorize the Secretary of Treasury to coin more than four millions worth (per month the limit fixed in the act of February 28, 1878. Mr. Stewart moved to lay the amend ment on the table, but without action on this motion the Senate at 5.15 adjourned, HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, After the reading of the journal an effort was made by the friends of the special order, the Direct Tax bill, to make an arrangement by which a final vote upon the measure would be insured to-day at five o'clock, but - Mr, Breckenridge, of Arkansas, objected to the proposition. Mr. Hi. b. lay loo, or unio, thereupon moved to limit general debate to one hour. and the opponents of the bill then resorted to flllibustering tactics. Tbe enure day was consumed in voting upon dilatory motions submitted by op ponents of the bill, Mr. Uats, or Alabama, and Mr. Breckenridge, of Arkansas, being most active in this respect. Motions to adjourn, to adjourn to a day certain and lor recesses, alternated witn eacn otner, and the voice of the clerk calling the roll with alphabetical monotony, was unin terrupted i by any scene oi interest or announcement until nearly o o ciock, wnen the vote recurred upon a motion submitted bv E. B. Taylor for a recess until to-iuor row at 10 o'clock. ' The flllibustering element was at this time at the end of its list of the usual dilatory motions, but Mr, Breckenridge, of Arkansas, was equal to the emergency, and made a motion that the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. McMillin) be excused from voting upon' Mr. Taylor's motion. Mr. Keed. of Maine, and Mr, Burrows, of Michigan, made the point of order that a motion to excuse was not in order upon a motion to take a recess, the former gentleman suggesting that if it were in order motions could be submitted to excuse everv member. The Speaker said that while that might be very inconvenient, he thought the mo tion to excuse was in order. Mr. Grosvenor remarked that there were 14S members of the minority. . At six hours a dav thev could use no fifty davs upon everv vote, and he gave notice now if God spared his life and this motion were admitted, if he could get the minority to stand with him, he would do it on a ques tion which would affect somebody very materially. - Mr. Keed raised a further point that it was not competent for one member to move that another member be excused. That motion must come from the gentleman himself. : L - " The Speaker said that in the case of mo tions to adjourn, it had been, decided that they could not be reconsidered, for the rea son tnat tr tnis couia do oone. a motion to adiourn might be repeated and indefinitely A motion to take a recess could be repeated indefinitely, but a time must be fixed in each case, so that the motion . to take reces was not like a motion to adjourn. It had been decided that upon amotion to adjourn it was not In order to move that a member be excused from voting, because, in that case the House might be kept in continu ous session, but that decision did not apply to a motion for recess; and the Chair, thAi-efore. overruled the point of order. Mr. Sowden. of Pennsylvania, appealed from the decision, and the yeas and nays were ordered on the appeal. . - At 10.30 p. m. the parliamentary situa tion remains unchanged, and there is every prospect of an all-night session. - Both sides seemed determined to carry the fight on. ' Tbe advocates of the Direct Tax bill feel that if thev permit an adjournment tne cnances for the passage oi the measure at the present session of Congress are verv small; while ita opponents, being of the same Opinion, are putting forward every effort to secure an , adjournment. It . is possible, however, that towards one or two o'clock weariness ; will weaken the deter mination of both advocates and opponents. and that some compromise will be effected. : SUPEBIo'r COUR1S. .:.
