It is to be regretted that the House saw fit to. table the bill, which was in troduced by Mr. Wood, lopkjng to the better advertising of. property, to be sold.- I he bill provided; that hereafter all public notices of executors, admin istrators, .sheriffs, constable tlcommia- sioners, tax collectorsi xtlerk of Supe riorCourt or Judges.of Probate should hti tibli9hed. in some newspaper, if there be any published in . the county were such placemen, or pfficers reside, for four weelcsj provided notice to non residehlaBhould be published for six weeks ; Clerk s or judges of probate were to insert notice in some newspa per published in their judicial districts, ill cases where no newspaper is pub- ished in the counties where they reside . We think the House made a great mistake'in not acting upon the bill at once, for while there is a deal of good to be said of it, there is nothing which can be said against it. We entirely agree with the position of the Greens boro' Patriot in this matter, which is as follows : For the want of just such a law as this there are thousands upon thous ands of dollars worth of property sacrificed annually in this State, and hundreds of victims are robbed by combinations of a few moneyed men who keep posted, and by previous arrangement amongst themselves buy ud such property as they consider worth holding, at their own figures because, with the ridiculous mode of giving notice in practice now, not one person in a hundred of the pCople in the neighborhood known anything of the sale. We ask the question, if any member of the Legislature were com pelled to sell his estates at public sale, whether he would be satisfied with sticking a written notice on the Court house door and some cross roads, or whether he would not endeavor to give it the greatest publicity that it might benefit bidders and sell to the best ad vantage ? Of course he would do the lat ter, as every man V)f sense would. If he would do so in his own case why not do the same for those of his fellow citizens who have been overtaken by adversityand whose welfare it is his duty-while acting in a legislative ca pacity to guard ? '"Let any Sheriff be asked, and we'll venture that he will pronounce the present ridiculous mode of making such notice a mere form and of no ef fect whatever." THE CAUSES OF THE MISSISSIP PI TROUBLES. ,-The New York Times, and Tribune and the Herald all journals of Re publican antecedents and of unap proached influence on the public mind, agree that the Vicksburg battle was brought about by carpet-bag mis chief making and negro violence and invasion. The Tribune sees the hand of Ames in the evil business. It comtoents ort the case thus sufficient y, though-briefly : "Further details are given this morn ing of the oppression which the peo ple Of Vicksburg have been suffering at the hands of their government. ihey had, however, taken no meas L "1 - i m . f ' i . . . nres oi violence wnen their persecu tors took larm .

He was still liviosr at last accounts, though the locality of the wound renders his recov ery very improbable. A correspondent writing ; from Greens boro, under dale of the. 14th, says: Our town is in a great excitement over a shoot ing affair which occurred at the McAdoo House about supper time. Mr. A. G. Moore, who was so vilely: assailed throogn-a card purporting to have - come from Mrs. Bivins. thefljotber of a young Kin. fell afoul of Mr. Green.the aotbor of the card.at the supper table. Mr. Green ran . to bis room and Mr. Moore after him. Green shut the door, and Moore kicked it open. Green stood with a chair upraised and Moore shot through the chair, making a flesh wound on his head. Mr. George W." Swepsdn aid one of his attorneys was in the room. The attorney drew his pis to! and fired on Mr. Moore, is one leport, and another is that his pistol went off accidentally. No serious damage inflicted. Koopmann & Rothschild.
