His address Was most effectively delivered, and evidently produced a profound im pression on the Court. '' ' '' What will be the result of this trial it is hard to say; ' The Court '.has 'the case under, advisement, and I suppose the. opinibnin this, as well as the Swazey case, will be delivered in a few days by the Chief Justice. Of one thing we may rest assured, and that is that however the question may be decided, Wake's decision 'witf be right, and it will then be the duty of all good citizens to bend to the law. It ' is greatly to be hoped that the Chief Justice will render a decision favora ble to the defence, as North Carolina is too' poor to pay such fraudulent debts as th e special tax ' bonds from which she realized hardly a dollars' worth of good. JUST SO. Many of our Northern editors have of late been writing the truth, as regards the true, condition of the South, and the baneful' and ruinous results consequent upon the illegal intermeddling and unconstitutiqtja legislation in the internal- -affairs of tho late Confederate States. , The N. Y. Tribune denounces- the v proposed legislation with regard to Utah as "another specimen of the Becdnstruc tioh policy applied to the rebel States of the South." The operation of this Utah BUI will only lead to the "revel ling of carpet-baggers in the plunder of Mormon ; property, 'says the Tri buhe.' A Radical Congress strained its constitutional prerogatives, trespassed npon constitutional limits, and re duced the faires portion of our Union to degration-and ruin -Radicalism, rotten with depravity, weighted down with corruption and political profliga cy, has run its course, and its death is proclaim ed in; Ihe :hdnse its jown ends.

Saturday last, a terrible hail storm', lasting one hour or more, passed over Kingstree. A great deal ot damage is reported as having been done to the crops. A few days ago a colored boy in Co lumbia fell out of a swing. lie broke one of his this thighs, broke both arms near the wrist, and yet they don't despair of his life. A case to test, the ownership of a tin bucket, worth fifty cents, was tri ed before a trial justice, in Union, a few days ago, which cost the county twelve or fifteen dollars. Tears far liouiftiana. : The cry in the northern papers for Louisiana is more and more piteous. People are asked ;: to subscribe freely because the calamity in Louisiana is greater than pen can tell or mind That Mr. Conaway, the "carpet-bagger" to whom we paid our respects a few days.JBince, and who, i& Commis sioner of Education in .Louisiana, writes a doleful letter about the State. He describes a part as inundated and a part as burnt up by drought. Be tween the two visitations drought and flood everybody is doomed to die unless they are helped by Congress or the nation. .We suppose Conaway tells the truth, especially as his evi dence is supported by the testimony of many people. If the Louisianians are not helped tbey will . be involved in a famine unprecedented in this country. ' -af fr nof alow to sympathize with suffering and to aorro w with - the - sor rowing. We. are too familiar with disaster not to feel for those, who feel it. But we wish the public attention especially directed to the sad condi tion of Louisiana and the main cause of it. We are firmly convinced that had that State the government of the intelligent owners of the lands ho such calamity as it now suffers would have fallen upon it. There would have been forecaste, providence, and energy com bined in such a manner as to avoid a great part of the calamity and to have rendered the remainder quite tolera ble, ; The . levees . would have . been cared for, the flood limited, and every man would have taken care of his own household so effectually that there Would have- been ' little ' left for the country to do and 'nothing for Con gress. As it is tbe great weight of the calamity is attributable to bad govern ment. The "Revonatruclion Laws" are to blame for the sorrows of Louisiana. Joey V?,: e' Conirress is the arti ficer of the dreadful fortunes bf that State, and it is well that Congress pro vides ways and means to relieve the sufferings of its inhabitants. She was the richest State in the Union. Be hold to what a condition she has been reduced by bad government! In the light of its paina and sorrows who will have the assurance to call ours the best government in the world ? We say that no roan should think for, one moment of tbe terrors of life in tne political causes which in a great degree have led to them. The New Broom in the Treasury DjABl,MEH'ri Washington, June 7. Secretary Bristow has already pat on foot several reforms in the Treasury Department, and with a determination that indicates that be means to carry them-out. One of bis.jfirst of&cial duties was to send for. the chief of. the appointine bureau, and ascertain from him how many persons drew pay and rendered no services in return. The long hst of sinecures was shown him, and be directed the-clerk to strike every name from the pay-roll imme-J uawiy. Jignteeaiemales were found to; be among the, number drawing pay from the department, and tne appoint ment clerk, went so far as to say that tney aia not even take the trouble to call for their salary, th at it bad to be ie'nt them regularly, and that be bad no information that they ever did a cent's worth ofvork in return, some of them being, incapable of doing the duty. The new Secretary intends also to put a stop tb' many other abuses, such as clerks takimr Enronenn1 tri n with their families at Government ex pense jon imaginary i inspections tor business, and of absenting themselves frprntheir deska m aome cases as m ricb? as tnree-iounhs of thetime.
