DAILY-OBSERVER 'V JOHNSTONE JONES,'. Editor. iJWidnesday, February 5, 1873. EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION. Tho organization of . the editors of 'ibis State' into " ah association for mutual benefit and protection, has . .been proposed The proposition laieeta with our hearty concurrence ; anoTTeVlu will meet ith the approbation of a majority if not all elic brethren of the Press of North Carolina. Men of other professions organize o vvancevf tper Mutual ;.interests Vliy riot editors? Tririterr Ra ve their unions; merchant's, their boards of !rade; lawyers,Mheir bar a'ssocia ions, doctors, their medical so- pietios mechanics,- their Trades' lluioris farmers jtlijeir grange3; and why should not the quill-drivers of L . . i n the country unite ana iorm an asso ciation?. In union there ia. strength; 0rgariized effort is power. The benefit of an organization of i ibis kind would be great, in a busi ness pointrof view, to say nothing of the mutual pleasure aiid advantage "U'hich would be derived by each member from the personal acquain tance of all the other members of f - the editorial fraternity. It would tend to unite us in closer bonds of ttnjory to, faster friendship; to allay bitterness 'of feeling; to heal old wounds- and soften down the , asperi ties which wiir sometinles 'result from sharp controversies engaged in by journalists who differ in opinion regarding the ; political or social questions of the day. 'Such a union properly formed and conducted up on elevated principles of honor, oitrtesy and humahe feeling Would rob journalism of "much of the gall and wormwood wherewithal it is now dashed, aud drop in a little more" of the honey-dew of human kindness. Were this the only result that flowed from a union of this kind, it would repay us for the trou- influences which would sprjng from the formation of more fraternal re lationships among the journalists of the State, would be felt by the whole public. But, throwing aside all sentiment in the matter, business considera tions suggest such an organization. The adoption of some uniform sys tem of conducting newspaper busi ness is of importance to every jour nal in the State; aud it is only by organized effort in this direction that tablished. The many advantages pf a thoroughly organized associa tion of our editors will be at once perceived by every journalist in the State who will turn his attention to the subject. We trust that some action will be taken at once in the matter. At all events, let the subject be aired by all the papers in the State. The move ment ought to be initiated bv a call for a convention of all the editors and newspaper men of North Caro lina, irrespective of party. THE IMPRISONED WITNESS. i Mr. J. R. Stewart, the contuma cious witness in the Credit Mobilier investigation who was imprisoned by order of the House of Representa tives, still remains obstinate and un yielding. He will not tell what he did with the lobby fund of the Union 1'acific Railroad. The opinion pre vails that Stewart is in possession of itiitormation of the greatest impor Unce to the investigation, and that ifj he should divulge what he knows, the reputations of a number of men in high places would be ruined. The right of Congress to imprison him is dpubted by some of the best par liamentarians. (The fallowing is an interesting sketch of the man and his lodgings: I "Stewart is' lodged in a room in the Capitol known, as the Bastile, which was fitted up as a prison in 1868 for C. W. Wooley, who was committed for contempt for refusing td testify about the use of money to defeat the impeachment of President Johnson. This room is furnished with a bed at least a foot too shol for the comfortable repose of Stewart's gignatic frame, a half-dozen easy chairs of Various patterns, a sofa, a threadbare carpet, and. two or three tables. It has two large windows which look out on a dismal little court-yard inclosed by the high walls of the; building. The court-yard is so narrow and the walls a n Infrv trlafrit is like looking up the shaft of a imme 10 try to get a glimpse of the sky, while standing in it. Th Tiri. dpws are heavily barred, and so little light cbmesTin . through them that the gas is kept burning all rl cpt for . theiarbidding, dungeon-like prospect from the.windows, and the 1 i t l wnoiesome sunlight the pri soner is very comfortable. - His meals u.re provided by the House restau rant, which; although not a famous unary establishment, is thought good euousrh-for members nf " RfM1 he-e"jfcyBnhe society .of -Ws friends very much as if he ivere ..uuaug wis ease in his hoteL Thr, jstoliceman atihe-dooris Icept,-busily employing usnenng ouvanu '"in a numerous throng of visitors. Stewart craplojed much of his time, to-day, in rehearsing his speech of yesterday., to his. guests fortifying Ktst remarks on persona liberty 'and the sacred privilege an4 dujies qf attorney by, copious quotations from law books of which no has a small library. He says that he does not intend to ap ply for. a writ of habeas corpus, be cause Congress has so brow-beaten the judiciary of late that lie is not w i Ihng ..to, t est ..before, an y court th e question of the right of the House to imprison him. IIc declares that he wil patiently wait the progress of events, whicli probably means that he is determined to stay where he is until thoxpirationi bff-the session, o&ttid4thof March, releases-him.'' Legislative Notes. On motion of Senator Co wles, cer tain House resolutions in regard to the United States Branch Mint at this place were, taken up and passed.

By Mr. Cowles, a series of resolu tions of regret and indignation at the corrupt and fraudulent conduct and practices of certain members of the Congress of the United States, re cently: brought to the attention of the public,as follows : The General Assembly of Korth Caro lina do Resolve, 1st, That to main tain, protect and preserve the integ rity dignity and honor of the na tional Legislature, is the high and patriotic duty of the people of the Union as well as that of Congress it self. 2nd. That this General Aseembly have heard, with feelings of mortifi cation and painful regret, of the cor rupt and fraudulent conduct and practices of many members of the Congress of the United States mate rially affecting their integrity and honor as members of. that body, which has recently been brought to the attention of the country through investigations made by Congression al Committees of the bribery prac tices of persons interested in the "Credit Mobilier" and others seeking and securing places in Congress by open bribery. 3rd. Thateuch fraudulent conduct and crimes ought to excite feeings of deep indignation and profound alarm in the minds of the American people for the integrity, safety and honor of their political institutions and merit sternest rebuke. 4th. That it is the sense of this General Assembly that Congress owes it as a duty to themselves, and to the people of the United States, to try, expose and expel the guilty ones from seats in that august body, which they dishonor and digrace. 5th. That a copy of these resolu tions be sent to each of our Senators and representatives in Congress with the request that they present a copy to their respective bodies. On motion of Mr. A vera, the "poi son bill" was taken from the calen dar and referred to the Judiciary Committee. On motion of Mr. Cowles, a House resolution asking our representatives in Congress to use their influence to secure the passage of a law to estab lish a branch mint at Charlotte, was taken up. Mr. Worth was opposed to the res olution. He did not think the mint would be worth a cent to the people. As an old miner, he knew the disad vantages that miners labored under, but he was willing to postpone the resolution till the Senator from Mecklenburg came iii. The resolution was adopted. On motion of Mr. Cunningham, the bill presented bv himself in re gard to railroad traveling was taken from the calendar and referred to the Judiciary Committee. By the same, the bill to incorpo rate the Chapel Hill and Iron Moun tain Railroad, wras taken up and pas sed its readings. On motion of Mr. McCaulev, a res olution for the relief of Jno. J.

Mr. Ellis advocated immediate ac tion on the resolution, that is, if in the wisdom of the General Assembly they thought the mode expedient. Mr. Morehead, of Guilford, offered an amendment that his Committee shall also visit Thomasville, in Ran dolph county. Mr. Welch opposed the resolution. He thought that much swindling had been done in this matter of lu natics, idiots, &c, in the operations of the law allowing idiots to draw $100 per annum from their counties ; and referred to the fact that Wilkes county alone drew $1,600 this year in addition to their insane now in the Lunatic Asylum. He thought the Insane Asylum now in "this city am ply sufficient for the unfortunates in the State that could be reclaimed (and this was the contemplation of the move only.) If extra arrange ments were to be made, he thought Raleigh was the place, as every mem ber on the floor; should feel a pride in perpetuating the State Institu tions at the Capital. He thought that the condition of pur Treasury could not at this time warrant the expense of enlarging the buildings. UMr Ellis rrepUed by eayingthat;he supported th e resolution on the- Ac count of its immediate necess.ityfj that the houses in Wilmington arid Charlotte proposed by this Commit tee to purchase could be made ready in.3G4ayand t?-binld We4nRal4Yittfa) slL V RintClKSrHrMILLER & SONS, "'to" , . , , ,. l Mr Worth opppea ine resolution i because he could: noteonscientious- lyTfaver, any; more appropriations U the vommuiees uypymieu uu ,vuo niatters fhiade reports showing n actual'necessitv forNmclu - .

He thought some means should be adopted to enlarged the capacity for the safe keeping, and .protection of the lunatics. . lie proposed that, ar rangements should be made by which convict labor could be made benefit cial in doing this necessary work, and thus economy to the State be preserved. In replying to the charge of Mri Welch that swindling .had been perpetrated under this . law " in regard to idiots, he was interrupted by that gentleman, who said, that as the Commissioners of counties had the power to say wljo were entitled to' the appropriation, the door was left o Den for swfndline. , Mr. Miller advocated the of the resolution. As one Committee on . the Asvlum. he knew this passage of the Insane Tesolu- tion was maturely considered, and believing its passage for the general good of the btate, he would vote lor it. . Mr. Love thought that the present defective legislation on this matter should be corrected before anymore was madei and moved to lay the res olution on the table. On this motion Mr, . Ellis, of .Co lumbus, called the yeas and nays. The motion to lav on the table prevailed by 17 yeas to 12 nays. The consideration of the Midland North Carolina Railroad was. taken ud at 12 m.
