''H," the Washington correspondent of the Raleigh Observer, writes to that paper that on Wednesday last Col Steele, our immediate representative, appeared before the House committee on Coinage, Weights and. Measures, and addressed it in favor of - re-establishing the mint in this city as a mint of coinage. The correspondent says: ' "He com batted the proposition- of Sayler, of Ohio, in favor of Cincinnati, Springer, of Illinois, in favor of Indian apolis, and Franklin, of Missouri, in favor of Kansas City. He said that large bank capital cheap coal; cheapo living, cheap sulphuric acid, and cheap salt were just as accessible at Charlotte as at any of the points indicated,. He said' further that (arlotte;. washe centre of a large gold mining interest the centre ofa number of railrpads a large, growing and thrifty city ; that the building and grounds were already there, the property of the United States, and that but a small outlay would be .required to put the mint in such condition as to enable it to coin all the gold which would be brought to it. He said also that the re-establish- ment would develop the mining inter est, because of the. facilities of. coinage wbiph it would giye.fjHe. alsc alleged that there were 'hills beyond Pentland and friths beyond Forth,' and' the gold belt of the South was entitled to the consideration of Congress as a matter of sheer justice.

PASSAGE OF TBB TIBGIXIA FINDING BILli The Legislature of Virginia adjourn ed last Thursday night the Senate hav ing' that morning - concurred "with the House in passing the new funding bill. The bill provides that the bonds issued under the funding: act of - March 30, 1871, and the act of March 7,1872, shall be exchanged for registered bonds bear-' ing interest at therratebf 'threjef cent, for eighteen years and four per cent; for thirty-two y eard , principal and interest to be exempt from taxation try the State, county or city, no exchange to be made until holders of not less than $15,000,000 of tax-receivable bonds of the State shall have expressed their readiness to make said exchange. The bill also provides that owners of the other interest-bearing bonds which were notjfunded under the acta men tioned may, fund two-thirds ot the amount thereof, together with, two thirds of the accrued interest thereon to July 1, 1871, in bonds as above des cribed. A letter received by Gen Bradley T Johnson from Messrs Wilson, Colston & Co, Baltimore bankers, state that they are in receipt of a letter from an English firm holding a million, and a half dollars of Virginia bonds, who say that the Enelish bondholders will ac cept no proposition paying less than four per cent, interest in gold and cou pons receivable for taxes.

The Washington correspondent of the "Richmond Dispatch telegraphs tha! paper last Thursday : Pending the discussion of the propo sition of the Appropriation committee that when counsel are employed to as sist United States district attorneys in important cases they shall not be paid over $2,000, Mr Hanna (Republican) said no competent attorney needs an assistant attorney. The rule which Mr Hanna would es tablish, however, would not affect the United States district attorney for the western district of North Carolina, and his assistant need have no apprehen sions of being deprived of his position. PURSUIT OF THE S005SHDTIBS. They Flee to the Mountains Active Measures Taken for Their Arrest- Something About Redmond More Escapes of United States. Prisoners. gBpecial to the Charleston News & Courier Columbia, March 14. No additional particulars have been received here to-day from the scene of the revenue troubles. It is now believed that Bed mond and his gang, becoming alarmed at the active measures set on foot for their arrest, have dispersed in the mountains. About one hundred men have been collected, organized and armed, and the pursuit will be begun in earnest to-night or to-morrow. Bed mond is a native of Transylvania county. North Carolina. He is said to have a slieht infusion of Indian blood, although apparently he is a full blooded white. Physically he is a su perb specimen of manhood, being six feet tall, stoutly built; very strong and active as a cat. lie has long been en gaged in the business of illicit distil- l! . ' A. ' 1 1 . A line in nis. native county, adqui iwu years ago he was arrested by Mr Duck worth, a deputy United States marshal and deputy sherin , or Transylvania. While on his way to jail Redmond drew a pistol, which he had concealed in bis boot, and shot the officer dead. Alter this he fled to this State, and re sumed his old occupation. About c year ago he was arrested by deputy marshals Barton, Gary and Hendricks; He escaped from them on the evening of his capture, took a position in am bush by the roadside, and fired into the party, wounding Gary and Hendricks, the latter desperately. ' Subsequently he went to Mr Barton's house for the avowed purpose of killing him. He was away from home, and the outlaw in searching the house, found a check for fiuu. lie placed. Mrs Karton on a bare-backed horse and forced her to go to Easley Station with him, cash the check and give him the money. He then cooly selected Mr Barton's best horse, and rode away to the mountains 111.. -Ii! T-J 1 t . l 1 wim. mm.

A timid girl, with her delicate hand half-revealed, half-concealed in a mit, came in and laid a poem on our desk, which opened ar follows : Kow dear to my heart is the goat or my childhood, When fond recollection presents him to me ; The beautiful beast which when'er he was relied would E3 Make everything fly from the presence of My mischievous Nan was the frowsiest but- That ever did butt, a stone fence till it fell; He'd see it a coming a scream he . would utter, - " - Then brace his four legs and go at it pell mell. . .-. 0, how he would buck it! - An iron-bound bucket.
