The legislature is hard at work to-day fin ishing up the business before it, preparatory to a sine die adjournment on Monday morning. Many of the members will leave for their homes to-night and to-morrow, and by Monday night or Tuesday morning we suppose the last of them will be gone. We shall publish the stay law and other acts of general interest to the public as fast as we can get them. The resolutions of Mr. Manly, of Craven, asking the President to grant a general amnes ty to all the citizens in North Carolina who had participated in the war, was laid on the table this morning. Going. And the good-natured set of gentlemen that hold three sessions a day in the granite build ing in the centre of capitol square are to leave us on Monday. They have been here some time, they have done a good deal, and while they have not been able to please all, others might have done worse. They are a jolly set, personally, and we’ll never be the man, per sonally, to fall out with ^w-makers because they do not agree with us politically. There has evidently been a want of firmness of pur pose and a want of organization and leaders but we must remember that everything was in rather a chaotic state when the body as sembled : and we must, remember that the la bor of bringing order 4 out of chaos is not so- easy. We are willing to believe that every member of the Assembly has desired the good of his State and country, and that they have tried to do the best they could. They go to their homes to render an account, and in August their successors will be elected, and if by that time the masses shall have con quered their, prejudices sufficiently to send here only such men as will cheerfully submit to the condition of things, and zealously co- operate with the government in the work of restoration, we may hope for better results. We devoutly trust the members may have a jolly good time in reaching their homes—may be prosperous and happy after they get there, j and that their days may be long in the land. The holding of a seat in the legislature amounts to nothing—it is only a faithful discharge of duty as a representative that gives the occu- i pant reputation. SPEECH OF MR. GASH, Outlie Rill ta issue Six-Per Cent. Ponds to meet j the interest on the State dehtioast due, March 7, 1836. Mr. Speaker : I am very much in the situ ation of the senator from Wilson. I have given ; the subject much sleepless thought, and never I until this morning have I been fully pursuaded | in my own mind how I ought to vote on this 1 important subject; and even now, sir, I can scarcely say with certainty how I may vote on the fiial action ofthe bill. It may possibly depend on the retention of the amendment as now incorporated in the bill, and the impres sions made on my mind in the further discus sion of the bill. It is well known here and at home that I am no repudiationist, nor am I willing to sup port any measure that looks in the remotest degree to the. repudiation of a lawful and hon est debt. Yet, sir, I have been unable to de cide fully in my own mind whether the pas sage or rejection of this bill will most likely lead to that most unfortunate result. When I listen to the arguments of its friends, both in and out of the senate, in their patrioticapp' als to State pride and credit, I feel inclined to make any sacrifice of means to sustain the credit of the State. But, sir, when I retire to myself, and consult my own judgment in the matter with the facts and figures before me, I must confess that almost insurmountable dffi- culties and doubts loom up before me against the whole plan as now offered. It strikes me, sir, that the position taken last night by the senator from Mecklenburg, that the present revenue bill provides for, and fully meets the object aimed at in this amendment "as being wholely untenable in law. This revenue bill does not repeal the old law exempting State bonds and the interest thereon from taxation, consequently the new bond-holder, under this law would claim, and rightly, too, that bi 3 ; new bonds were not taxable under the laws as they now stand. Therefore, I believe with the j senator from Wilson, that we have the right ' to retain in our own hands the right to tax , any new bonds that we may issue, or any cor- : poration or charter that we may hereafter grant; and I hope, sir, that we will do it. Al ready we are told that we are estopped from taxing certain railroads or the travel on them by charters heretofore granted. If that be so, I hope that this, nor no other legislature in Nhrrn u m ^c.^. win ivf>- v. o ._>..cui-liy .. v, ,.,..-,,-,_ der that indispensable right again to any in dividual, company or corporation, except it be for religious or educational purposes. I do, therefore hope, the motion to strike out will not prevail. Then, sir, the question arises on t^e pas sage of the bill with or without the amend ment. Will it revive State credit permanent ly, or will it not like whisky to a sick patient revive for the present only to sink it low er, soon as the superficial effects of the stimu lant have passed away. Such, sir, are my si lent forebodeings. This is a large debt. If I remember the reading aright, it is about three millions five hundred and fourteen thousand dollars. The interest for twelve months would be.$210,840. which falls due next January.— Then we have made^no provision in therevenue bill, (nor can we,) to meet it. Then there is i the whole of the old debt also on interest— some say eleven, while others say thirteen mil lions of dollars. Say eleven millions ; take the lowest estimate and the interest on eleven millions would be six hundred and sixty thousand dollars, to say nothing of the inter est on the new bonds which this bill proposes to issue which would be $12,650 40 more— making in the aggregate in interest alone of $372,640 40 to be met next January by a simi lar bill to this. Can any of us sec what such a policy must inevitably lead us to ? And once the precedent be established, when and flow are we to get rid of it ? The people are nut able to meet by taxation, and future legis lators will shrink from the responsibility of levying the taxes, as we are now doing, and f r the same reason : that the debt is too large for the means available to pay with. And that new bonds may still be issued compound ing the interest until the debt gets so large that the stoutest of us may dispair of ever being able to catch up with it. Sir, I must confess these are my tears. I therefore dread the experiment, and have hesitated how 1 ought to vote; and even now have my doubts. But, sir, when I remember that we have just passed.the stay law through this house, not only withholding compound interest between citizens, but stopping the collection of the principle for years, ought we, as we now pro pose to do, tax these very debts that cannot be collected to pay compound interest on the debts of the State, and at the same time sur render to the bondholders the right to these bonds as other interest-bearing notes held by individuals. Sir, I think not. If we strike out this amendment as now proposed, we for ever surrender the right to tax them, no mat ter what our necessity or disposition may here after be to tax them or not. I hope, sir, the proposition to strike out will not prevail. LOCAL DEPARTMENT. Persons who have business to transact with the Progress Office will find us,in the same building on Fayetteville street.

At present we have to wait for our legislative reports. STATE ITEMS. The Charlotte Times of yesterday says that Governor Vance is in that town .and that there is a rumor that he thinks of settling there. The people of Wilmington on Thursday vo ted their town a city and A. H. Van Bokelin was elected Mayor. All hail, Wilmington- city ! Maj. McKnight has signified his intention to deliver his lecture on “Babies” in Wilming ton. Carteret.— At the first term of the county court of Carteret, recently held. John M. Perry, Esq., was elected county attorney. Rev. John Burnley was elected register. James Rumley, Esq., qualified as county court clerk, and J. Henry Davis, Jr., as sheriff' What Does he Mean:—The Greensboro Patriot says:—“We learn that the firm of Bat tle, Heck & Co., of Raleigh, has been dissolved by mutual consent, and we suppose is to be succeeded by the “Real Estate Bank of North Carolina,” which institution will, doubtless, be more successful in transferring the lands of dejected Southerners to “Northern capital ists.” Negro Horse Theives.—The Newbern Times says: A negro, claiming to hail from I Greenville; Pitt county, rode a handsome young horse into the Trent settlement, a few days ago, and proposed to sell it. Mr. Fitz, Superinten dent of Freedmen, suspecting his honesty, ask ed him several questions relative to his owner ship, and very soon became convinced that the horse had been stolen from some one, so he took charge of the horse and put the rider in jail. Yesterday morning when the guard entered the jail to give the inmates their breakfast,this horse theif cocked a pistol at the gaurd, which some of his friends had managed to get into prison to him, and under the excitement ofthe moment sprang out at the door, and notwith standing the guard fired upon him several times in bis flight,, which was with the fieet- ness of a wild buck, and pursued him three miles, he finally made his escape. Mr. Fitz also informs us that a week or two since, a negro man rode into his camp and of fered to sell his horse to some of his guard. The guard did not need the horse, and inti mated to him that he was held as a suspicious character and his case would be reported to headquarters, whereupon the rider took fright, leaped from his horse and took leg bail on the regular 2:40 schedule. The horse was taken in custody and in three hours afterwards, the rightful owner from Lenoir county, who had been pursuing the thief all night, came up, proved property, and took the horse. GENERAL NEWS. —Gen. W. W. Wood, formerly of the rebel army, is lecturing throughout Mississippi,, on the subject of emigration to Brazil. Maj. Has tings, who started from Mobile in December last, with a colony of emigrants, and was shipwrecked off Cuba,is not to be discouraged. He set sail on the 1st inst. from Mobile with another company in the steamer Margarett. —Brevet Col. J. B. Sinclair, of the Four teenth Regiment of U. S. Infantry, who was ■ ? ’ounded seven times in the late war, is now with hi- regiment at Fort Vancouver, Wash ington Terruv^ where it is expected there will be some very n -,] v times with the In dians. ■ —A private letter dated at Hunio.;q e -^.j, ker County, Texas, Feb/18, says: TheL^ men in nnr county are doing astonishing ly well, and the prospect bids fair for a heavy cotton crop this year, as there are great deal heavier crops planted here than has ever been since our State has been a State. —Complaints comes from Mississippi con cerning the operation of the statute laws re lating to the apprenticing of colored children. Colored people who are fully able to support their children may have them seized at the request of any white person and bound out, by the Probate Courts to white masters, for a small rate of compensation, until they arrive at the age of 21 years. —On the 1st inst., Mr. Ransom, a landhold er in Marshall county, Tennessee, was attack ed by a party of rebel guerrillas, to whom he had made himself obnoxious by renting por tions of his land to negroes. The guerrillas, thirty in number and armed, succeeded in driving the negroes off the place and taking possession. Col. Shafter, commanding at Nashville, on being notified of the proceeding immediately dispatched a company of troops to the aid of Mr. Ransom. The Texas state convention Continues its sessions. Resolutions involving a repudiation of all the public debts contracted by reason or on acccount of the rebellion, were being con sidered at latest advices. The British ship Orient experenced the shock of an earthquake in mid-ocean, while on her passage from Australia to London No vember 17. Releived.—Brevet Major G. C. Winslow', depot nd post quartermaster here, has been relieved from duty on account of family af fliction and will soon leave for home. He has proved to be a capital officer and will take with him to his nativity the kind wishes of a host of friends. The Concert—Another Success.—Mme. Pozzoni and her associate artists, must derive a vast deal of satisfaction from the character of the audiences each of their concerts in this city have attracted. Nor should the manager, Mr. J. H. Rogers, feel less sensibly the compliment conveyed to him by concert-goers in their pat ronage of his efforts, for despite the forbidding temperature another full house welcomed the troupe last night. The selections were from operas of the first- repute, with here and there in the programme ballads ofthe most popular authors set to mu sic by approved composers. As the successive pieces were produced, they were received with the most hearty approbation In some points, atleast to our thinking, theconcertists were in rather better voice than on the preceding even ing. At all events, ladies who were present— amateurs of no mean capacity or cultivation— express to us their high estimate of these mu sical festivals and regard them as meriting en couragement. The arrangements of Mr. Rogers elsewhere make it certain that the concert to-night will be the last in our city. We bespeak for them a crowded house in demonstration of the fact that our people can appreciate and will sus tain entertainments of a worthy stamp. The programme is of the most inviting character. Coin Restored io Richmond Banks. The following appears in the telegraphic correspondence of the Northern papers : At the time of the evacuation of Richmond the banking establishments of that city con tinued to send away the amount of coin belon ging to the different institutions to a point fur ther South, for the purpose of securing it.— The amount originally reached the sum of $250,000, of which 150,000 were lost by plun der, and the remainder placed on deposit at Washington, Ga., in charge of a special agent, of the R chmond banks, who owing to the un settled condition of affairs, was unable to get back to Richmond, and was therefore compel- ed to remain there for sometime. While this coin was at Washington. Ga., claim was made to it by Gen Weld ofthe Freedmans Bureau, on the,ground that it was captured property, and an investigation of the case by General Wins low resulted in giving the right of possession to the agents ofthe banks. Afterwards about the 20th of April last, an order was received by General Steedman, then commanding the department, to hand over the captured coin on deposit to a treasury agent. This was done, and the coin was sent to this city, whbre it was placed on special deposit with the treasurer of the United States. Claim is now made on behalf of the Rich mond banks for the restoration of this money, and it is alleged that the order of the Presi dent was made without full information of the facts of the case. After a full and careful examination by the Treasury Department the matter has been re ferred to the President, who has ordered that the coin be restored, provided that the identity bewteen the amount now on deposit in the treas ury and that claimed by the banks can be es tablished, and a compliance made with certain formal conditions required by the Secretary of the Sreasury.

We see that the present is the fourth edition—pretty clear tes timony as to the popularity ofthe series. M. B. Moore is the compiler. A Small Mistake—The Last Fight on “Vinegar.”—It appears on further inquiry that the row at the dance house on Vinegar hill, last Thursday night, was more serious than at first reported. We were mistaken in saying, yesterday, that John Doran, a colored barber, had been knifed during the progress of the disturbance ; it was Doran who, with a sword cane, stabbed another darky, named John Johnson, in eight different places. Five of the wounds are on the body and one on the face, frightful gashes all. We understand the attending physician entertains fears that the injuries will prove fatal. Since the occurrence the police have been on the look-out for Doran, but up to this time he has not been secured. If caught, even should his victim survive, the screws will probably be applied to him without stint. Lougee Brothers.—We wish to say to such of our readers as may wish to purchase stor es for parlor, chamber or kitchen, tin-war or any other article in that line, that they may find them in any variety at the store of the Lougee Brothers, on the west side of Fayetteville street.

Washington, March 9.—The bill securing civil rights*to.all persons,- without regard to color, in the several states, was'discussed in the house and referred to the judiciary committee. Many republicans doubt their constitutional power to pass the bill in its present shape, be lieving that it invades to too great an extent the rights ofthe states.- In- the senate, the constitutional amendment apportioning representation among the states, was discussed. Mr. Henderson,, of Mo., offered a substitute that no state, in prescribing qualifications for voters, shall discriminate on account of color or race, and said that his own state, Missouri, would yield negro suffrage, and that the south would be compelled to do the same in five years. The substitute was disagreed to and the orig inal resolution was then rejected by a vote of 25 to 22. Sumner and other radicals voted against it . Markets.
