It is little suipriiingtolearri ttiat Gov? Vance will resign his present office so early as next week. His terra as United States iSehator begins with - the 4th of next March, and the Governor doubtless desires respite from his executive labors and from the responsibilities of State for a short period preceding his en trance upon his duties at Washington. Since his inauguration two years ago Governor Vance has added steadily to his already high reputation as H man lossessed of very remarkable executive abilities, and he can leave his present office with the consciousness that he has discharged his duties faithfully and well. He has done much to ameliorate the condition of the people in several respects and has set in motion forces which will be felt for many years to come. It is a pleasure to know, in reflecting upon Gov. Vance's promotion, that the gubernatorial mantle is to tall up on such worthy and capable shoul ders. Lieut. Gov. Jarvis is one of the foremost men of the State. He is thor oughly familiar with the people and their wants ; he is an astute politician, a man of enlarged views, a good law yer, and a man sound upon all the ques tions of the day. He possesses a well balanced mind, and is endowed with all the necessary requisites of a wise, intel ligent and conscientious Governor. Few men in the State would make a more capable executive and the people are to be congratulated that so worthy a gen tleman is to step into Gov. Vance's shoes. The retirement of Capt. Jarvis from the Lieutenant-Governorship, leaves a vacancy in that office which must be tilled by the State Senate, since the Lieutenant Governor is ex officio the president of the Senate, his dutjes as such comprising the sum total of his re sponsibilities. The Senate will there fore proceed next week to the election of a Lieutenant Governor, and this is one of the interesting events of the ses sion. Upon whom the choice will fall it is rather too early yet to conjecture, since the matter has not probably been canvassed to any considerable extent; but if any one gentleman has been men tioned more prominently than another in connection with the vacancy now soon to occur, it is the distinguished Senator from Wayne, Hon. Wm. T. Dortch, an eminent lawyer, Confed erate States Senator, and a gentle man who has occunied numerous dosI tions of trust and discharged the duties of all with honor to himself and with acceptability to the public. Freedom Here and Elsewhere. Talk as we may about the whips and acorns of time, the insolence of office and the law's delay, this is the freest country that the sun shines on. Sup- pose a member of the German ; Reich- stag, the English Parliament or the French Assembly should rise in his place, as Mr. Hewitt, of New York, did in the United States Congress, Tuesday, and denounce Bismarck, Beaconsfield or MacMahon as "a miserable tricksterr willing to bargain for the highest office in the gift of the people " ? Why, don't you know that he would be snatched up by the nape of the neck and kicked out of the house before he could say "God save the State ?" Of course he would. Here, however, a man is applauded for that sort of talk, and if the President were to raise a finger against him, there would go up a howl which would make the Potomac " tremble, deep in her concave shores." "The Flippant Speech of a Rude Soldier. The Washington correspond ent of the New York Herald the other day made some inquiry of Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman concerning the re cent "massacre of the Cheyennes," whereupon the notorious butcher re torted quickly: "Massacre! massacre! why do you call it a massacre ? A number of insubor dinate, cunning, treacherous Indians, who had no more regard for the lives of our officers and soldiers than if they had been dogs, attempted to escape from the custody of our troops and used vio lence to carry out their rebellious act. They were treated just as they deserved to be." This speech is eminently characteris" tic of the man. It was just such a sen timent as this that animated his bosom during all the progress of "the march to the sea." It is a fortunate thing for the country that it contains few men who are capable of such speeches as this, but he who declares that the American peo ple but for the army would be a mob, is capable of anything. Mr. Tilden and the Cipher dispatches will be investigated. It is well. As long as investigations are in order the President-elect had just as well be investigate ed along with the balance. He will be seen to have had nothing to do with the ciphers, and the result will be to in crease his popularity and further his presidential prospects for 1880. He and his friends naturally court an inquiry ': The 2istsaw some, gratifying work done in the election of Z. B. Vance, of North Carolina, and Daniel W.

Dr. Robah Gray, of Winston, will move to Danville, Va., to live. The negroes of Graham, Alamance county, are excited over the report that a bear comes into the town every night. The Star says a case is progressing in Wilmington which will fix the limit of the power of the police to make, arrests. Dr. E. Benbow, of Yadkin county, re cently lost a house in which he kept whiskey, by fire ; supposed to have been the work of an incendiary. Rev. T. J.

Spartan says a daughter of Noah Mifls, of Polk county, N. C, was killed by a falling tree a few days ago. She was cutting it down for firewood and was caught by it as it fell. Wilmington Star: The total loss of Mr. W. P. Canaday, by the fire Monday night, is put down at $5,100. This is the estimate of Capt. Southerland, who is well versed in the worth of valuables lost. The insurance foots up $3,155. The Alamance Gleaner learns that the house of Mr. Daniel Foust, of Guil ford, was broken into one night recent ly and robbed ot about $1,200 in specie Mr. Foust is a very old man and lives with a maiden daughter. No clue to the thief. A bar ot gold was lelt un touched though almost in the hands of the thief. John Horn, aged hrteen years, was arrested at Bennettsville, S. C, last week, on the charge of abduction. The abducted damsel was a daughter of B, Watkins, of Richmond county, N. C and was thirteen years of age. The precocious pair of lovers fled to Ben nettsville, where they were arrested by the stern parent of the girl. Wilmington Review: We understand that Col. S. L. Fremont, of this city who was some time since appointed to assist Gen. Gilmore in the construction of the river and harbor works below Savannah, has been also assigned to the eharge of the survey of the line for the proposed ship canal which is to connect the St. Mary's river, in Florida, with the Gulf of Mexico. Landmark : A serious cutlincr affrav was participated in Friday night, at a singing class, three miles east of .states- ville on the Western North Carolina railroad. The participants were respec tively Hodge Krider, of Rowan, and W m. E. Step, ot this county. 1 he latter was badly lacerated by the former, but it is thought by physicians that he will recover. : The Hillsboro Recorder says that after the subsidence of the freshet in Eno river last week, the dead body of an in fant was found on the bank, "near Fau- cett's ford, Orange county. A cord was drawn tightly around the neck, evident ly tor the purpose ot causing death, it had been thrown , into the water far above where it was found, the force of the current being relied upon to cany it ar away from the scene ot the crime, and thus mystify investigation. The coroner. Dr. Wilson, who held the in quest, pronounced the child to have been dead eight or nine days. Monday night the stable of the Wil mington street car company was de stroyed by fire. In the stable were ten horses, used for the street cars, and six cars, all of which, with the exception of one car, which was rolled out, proved a total loss. The flames soon communi cated to the house and kitchen adjoin ing, owned by Mr. John Canady, and occupied by Mr. Reuben Sneeden. This property was soon in ashes, together with Mr. sneeden s carts, harness, &c. So qnickly had the fire spread that he barely had time to save part of his fur niture. They have some nine hundred ne groes at work on the farm of Mr. Geo. Z. French, in Pender county, at the rock quarry, from which material is fur nished for oiling up New inlet. The Wilmington Sun says that two ot the number recently stole provisions from their comrades. They selected a jury, judge, solicitor and lawyer, and ar raigned them tor trial. Ihe case was plead as in a regular court, and the two prisoners were sentenced to receive each 20 lashes on their bare backs. An officer was appointed to execute this sentence and laid it on well. Monday one of the negroes who had served on the jury was himself caught in a theft, and another court was called lor his trial. Of course the verdict went against the prisoner, and he was se verely whipped. This is the way they keep things straight amongst them selves, and the plan seems to work well. Brief Sewn Ilcnw.

Mr. Beck followed, claiming that Blaine's amendments could not be con sidered as they proposed new legisla tion. Mr. Edmunds also considered them out of order, and in view of the objec tions they were not submitted. The naval bill was then passed. Mr. Blaine then introduced a bill to regulate promotions in the navy. Re ferred to the committee on naval af fairs. fThe provisions thereof are the same as the amendments., discussed to- dav.l Mr. Edmunds moved to take up his resolutions in regard to the constitu tional amendments. Mr. Thurman moved to adjourn, which motion was agreed to. House. The House has passed the bill appropriating $1,000 for the trans portation of coin and bullion and $40,- 000 to meet the miscellaneous expenses of the House ol Kepresentatives. There was a stormy debate on the Southern claims bill of Maggie Barron and others, for supplies furnished the Union army. Mr. Bragg, Democrat, stated that if. the South was solid tor the Democratic party simply for the purpose of getting money out of the treasury it would be well for the North ern Democracy if the Southern Demo crats went over to the Republican party, and he hoped they would do so. He stigmatized the bouthern claims com mission as a court which had bred fraud and perjury throughout the land. He thought very little loyalty existed in the South during the war. Mr. Ellis, of Louisiana, agreed that the percentage of loyal persons in the South as the gentleman understood, was very small, but a Southern man who was born there, reared there, and had been identified with that people, could only have been loyal when he entered the Confederate army and did his full duty as a soldier. They had been the only loval oeoole in the South. Thev had been loyal to the country, their God and to the noblest, highest and manliest emotions ever breathed by human soul, Several Republican members desired to ask questions but Mr. Ellis refused to yield and Mr. Atkins, oi Tennessee, de clared that it was "a family tight. Chalmers, of Mississippi, understand ing a portion ot Mr. Bragg s remarks as referring to him, wished to reply, but . V 1.1 . A 1 A? was ooiigeu to postpone nis intention. The House then passed the resolu tions in honor of the memory of the late Representative Douglas, ot Vir ginia. COMMITTEE PROCEEDINGS. The House committee on appropria tions has concluded action on the post- office and legislative, judicial and ex ecutive appropriation bills, which will be forthwith perfected in form for re porting to the House. The Potter committee met to-day, and were in session an hour. The De mocratic members asked that St Mar tin should be called to the stand or should be discharged from attendance as a witness, and upon this Mr. IShella barger, as counsel for Secretary Sher man, put in a letter requesting that St. Martin might be called for cross exam ination on the testimony he gave at Xew Orleans and an affidavit he has re cently filed with the committee. There seemed to be a general disposition to comply with the request, but it was not definitely decided. There was quite an animated discus sion with regard to the cipher dispatches cutler still protesting that it would be wiser Tor both parties to leave the in vestigation alone. He expressed his willingness, however to hand over the cipher telegrams in his possession to the committee as he believed they ought to be made public. The committee thought it advisable not to call any witnesses in respect of the dispatches until the bill for an additional appropriation shall have passed the Senate. To-morrow they will call Mr. Moses, clerk of the Seriate, and other witnesses who will testify respecting the Louisiana certifi cates. The committee will sit in Washing ton but a sub-committee will probably be appointed to take the evidence of Mr. Tilden in .New i ork. FOREIGN BRIEF ITEMS. St. Petersburg, January 22.
