I The Convention then proceeded to consider the' ordinance recognizing the just debts of North Caro- lina, and prohibiting the payment of all public lia Ibi itie-i created or incurred in aid of the rebellion, ! on its second reading. A lengthy and animated debate was here evoked, I in which Messrs. Moore, of Wake, Winston, Conig land, McKay, and others participated. During its I progress, Mr. Moore, of Wake, proposed an araend I ment to the original proposition, cdntempla ing the 1 payment of certain debts and leaving it discretion ary with the legislatures after 1877, to provide or f cot for the excepted claims but t'tis with the spe cial proviso that the convention should not Be un derstood as approving the la ter class of claims. ! Before the debate was closed and a vote had been "reached, the convention adjourned over till 10 o'clock to morrow,. JL strange Statement How William It. Yan cey Met his Death. As you enter the cemetery at Montgomery and turn to the right you will perceive a colonnade - of maple trees leading off to a quiet gUn. Bjyood is a brassy knoll, and leaving this to the left von will ap proach a pleasent level of greensward. Hare you wid je tempted to pause before a plain slab of white mar ie of the most humble description. It bears a sin Is inscription : " William L. Yancey . His last yords were : " Put me out of sight," and it is said that he was constantly muttering, towards , his latter end, those Hdcs of Pope: V " Let me live unseen, unknown, And unlamented let me die -t Nor mound, nor monument, nor stone, I . Tell where I lie." f His death-was quiet and painless, after a year of aoute physical and mental uff ring. Hj was a strict churchman ; araan of qaiet manners ; a hand some declaimer, and a fair scnolar. ; Ha was never wealthy, and it is understood that he left his family ' without an Independence S . i The time has come when the circumstancy" of his jW. Mnesa and death, with the occasion fnich snd- dAniw r.nnvnlseJ & frame from nerfect health into a wrrck,and mere shadow, may be mentioned as a historical fact. William L. Yancey came to his end !by violence. It was toward the clos9 of the second session of the first C jafederate Cmgrw, that he I broke from the counsels aod influence of Mr. Davis ; land became with Mr. Heory S. Foote, 'a leader of the opposition. Mr. Ban. Hill, a senator from Geor gia, had likewise changed nis front, and was remark . able for the earnestness, personal Interest and per- Ui3tency: with which he sustained the measures of an a administration to which his Allegiance had been giv en out late in tbe day. Mr. Yancey, U will be re- membered. had returned from an unsuccessful miu- !sion to Esrope, and was representing Alabama in the Ton federate Senate. ' I The question of a navy was under discussion ia .'-secret session. The debate ranged beyond the par liamentary limits, and Messrs. Yancey aad Hill be came animated over the abstract doctrines of state rights aDd the divinity of slavery. Hisjh worda passed, and fieally the lie was given by Mr. Hill Mr. Yancey leaped forward, and as, he aimed a blow rat his adversary, was caught in the; arms of the lat ter and violently thrown back over a desk. Mr. Hill is a man of wonderful muscular' development. Mr. Yancey was never very heavy, though lithe and active. In the fall, his spine was seriously injured, and when itbe bystanders rushed upon Ihe two and "dragged the one from the other, the great, fire-eater lay unconscious upon the floor, with a little triekle of blood oozing from! his lips. He was carried to his hotel: a vote of secrecy was pissed., and the eucoun- ter hushed up. iNO one in nicnmouu wtcpi. uv body of men knewf the circumstances for six SQonths alter. Meanwhile the victim did not recover. Heurooped from day to day. Hi became listless, bopeles8 and vacant. 'He was transferred to his own home, where bis con yalsions ceased a few weks be fore hia death, which was tranquil jaud calm. Nash- tills Republican Banner. !

The ground along the river opened in fissures and spouted water like the Geyserf of Iceland. The peo ple are unable to use some cf their wens, which are either dry or filled with sacd. fhe tide rose very high at the time of the shock, and fell very low im mediately afterwards. Ten or eleven distinct shocks were felt since the first shock up to five a. m. to-day. The estimated losses will amount to $10,000, and may exceed that sum. ' We fear the revereud gentleman who fills the Exec utive chair of Tennessee is about to fall from grace, Hear what the Tribune says of him : Brownlow would make a pretty mens of Tennessee. He would disfranchise all the small rebels, hang all the leaders, and banish the negroes. This would leave about four thousand men to do all the voting, hold all the offices and vote. Brownlow would be sure of re election for the next ten years.

Humphreys as Governor of the State. His oppo nent. .Tndcft Fisher, has declared his intention of urging upon the President his immediate pardon. It is thought by many that Gov. S arkey's opinion that the action of the State Convention conferred n negroes the right of giving testimony in courts of justice, will defeat him for the United States benate. Two negroes sentenced to be hung for murder, and on their way to the Nashville penitentiary, were taken from the sheriff who bad them in charge at Bowling Green, on the 9th, by soma negro soldiers.

Howard, the chief of the Freedman'a Bursau at Washing ton, met the members of the State Convention and a large assemblage of citizens, in the hall of the House of Commons, last night, to confer and take counsel of each other as to the present and future of the colored people in North Carolina. We have no room for an extended notice of .the affair in this issue. Gen. Howard expressed the opinion that it was best for the State authorities and the Bureau to co operate for the present in the care of the blacks, but assured the assembly that as soon as civil law should be restored throughout the State and Our people were prepared to accept the care and charge of them to give them such protection under the laws as they were entitled, to hd take care of the paupersthe government,,, would with draw all interference ah be matter. He was anx ious to see reorganization accomplished as early as possible and the Union presented as a harmonious body of States, each oue controlling their particular domestic concerns. We may give a more extended report of the con vocation hereafter. - - - ' More Light The gas works of the city, since the induction of Mr. James King into the superin tendency, have been managed with praiseworthy regularity. We do not remember any failure in the matter of light since his accession to place ; but cannot something better be done in point of dura tion of light. At present, we believe . gas is sup plied until midnight after that hour familiesex press companies, hotels, depot3, printing offices, apothecaries and "the "rest of mankind" are, in the dark or left to the tallow dip, poetically recognized as "the light of other days." We ask for amend ment in such respect so that we may have light all night, or if nothing better, until two o'clock. We suppose it would pay the proprietors, Messrs. Wa terhouse & Bowles, who are enterprising gentlemen and public spirited enough to undertake any mat ter iB which the citizens will sustain them. Point second. Cannot the streets be lighted and at once ? If it be argued that tne tinansiai condition of the city forbids such an expenditure, we hazard the opioion that no citizen with'a gram of local pride would object to a levy of&'few cents in behalf of such an object. Away, than, with this Egyptian darkness, and let us remember tbe cen tury in which we live and thatRaleigh is not a benighted village. f- g hi Rare Sight. Time was :n the south when the hioViARt. offence against societv was to affront a lady. Those were chivalric days, in which the lev, w. O " loci of every community applied with equal rigor to bleached and unreached denizens. We were glad to see the custom revived yesterday by a citizen. A burly fjdman, named Ned Jones, a squatter sovereign from Newbern, presumed upon his new estate, so far as to call a lady a liar. Old cit, with brass coat and blue buttons, heird the rascal use the epithet, when he proceeded to use his fists dex terously. The son of Ham, finding himself the stronger party, merely parried the blows of the at tacking force. At the height of the contest a Fed eral officer came up and learning how matters stood, joined in the assault and the saucy rascal received a sound thrashing. . Wc are glad of this transaction, not because the negro was beaten, but for the reason that it shows an unmistakeable determination that insolence to ladies is not to go unpunished, whatever the cir cumstances of the country.

TBI COLOaiB POFULATIOX OF RlLKIOS jlko TBI I Paosrtcri We have recfentlj made some verj plain and pointed aagsestioni with respect to the colored pop ulation of Raleigh and iU Ticinitj. We are pleased to hear from some ot the most intelligent of their number that oar motives are properly appreciated. The approach of winter makes as solicitous for every shade of oar pop ulation, especially under present circumstances,-anft ualess improvidenee can be cheered, and a new spirit of industry stimulated, nothing but a miracle will prevent either starvation or extensive criminality. The govern, meat and christian commission have suspended their operations, and thus considerable help to the blacks is withdrawn. Bit if they will all work as large bodies of them, we are glad, are doing tkey will not only place themselves beyond the har n of cold and hunger, but commend themselves to the confidence and respect of white people. It is net wise to digjuiBe the truth; we tell them plain ly, and without any reaerre, that tbeir own energies and , Own hands mast supply tktr wants during the coming winter and season of bard necessities. It will be dy& cult tor white people with employment to stand - out against the siege which winter will lay at their dors. How much harder will it be for the colored race, with out money We shudder at the recital of such things but we think we are doing nothing more thai our duty in lifting the curtain which conceals the future If those who a we address are so blind or so infattatd as not to heed our advice, then the responsibility for their calam ities will be upon their own headj. We warn them so lemnly, and with a mind devoid of al prejudice. Besides all this, as they appear ' chiefly desirous of winning upon the kindly feelings of the white popu lation, nothing will contribute to much in that direction as exhibitions of industry, honesty, and a cheerful dis position at self-maintenance. Rely upon it, you will ei ther make or unmake yourself ia the next twelve months. Up, then, and work wiih a will. It will do more to elevate your race tha' all the resolutions that can be put on paper in a hundred years. Colored Tnoops.
