' ' . . . is. 51, to aenne tne criminal juris diction of tne justices or tne peace, Mr. Henderson explained that this bill was to do away with the technical requirements ' and only to define their criminal jurisdiction in accordance with the constitution. He said the bill met the approval of , the people, the bar and everybody. . The effect of the bill would be to give civil suitors a chance before . the Superior Courts, which they could not have so long as the Superior Courts' UU1 WiU) UtlLCU UU UV tlltJBB U11UU1 UL- fences which magistrates could easily dispose or. Mr. Respass did not like the part that referred to imprisonment for costs. Too many .of the people liked that and would seek opportunities to avail themselves of the offer to procure food. He was in favor of farming them out and making them pay the costs by their labor. He recited a case in his 'county where at a candy , pulling two persons passed a blow, It went through three terms of the Superior Court, cost the county four hundred dollars, while the parties were fined one cent and costs, and neither party were able to pay the costs, so the county had it all to da If it had been before a magistrate the cost would not have been over live dollars. This was hard nnon the nwonlfi. and t.Vtfiv rallflri for reform in,the costs of these minor offences. These laws were now odious, expensive and ruinous, and the people demanded a bill like this. ' Mr. Austin favored the bill. The old farmer was one of the best conservators of the people. He could-better adjust - difficulties amonzneiehbors than courts. The yeomanry of the country could be trusted: they demanded this law and were bound to have it Mr. Everett thought there might arise a conflict between a mayor and justice of the peace, and both might try for the same offence; stilL he was in favor of the bill. - Mr. Davidson said that he had no idea 1 anything he might say would arrest the progress of this i bill. He recognized - the fact that there was a "popular de- j n.m ii... i j. . - ? . p juanu lur ii, out ne arose siinpiy ior the purpose of uttering his protest to the principle that "popular clamor" .5 alone should be permitted to, dictate ; our criminal law. The ideas embraced m tnia Din were not.newv. Since 1870, ' every Legislature liad attempted to give them force, and , every attempt had ' made the "confusion worse confound ed. The uniform testimony of our juiges. and attentive observers of the operations of the law, is that the exper iments heretofore made in this direc tion hare 'been utter 'failures. .

The committee desires to consider the bill again and should haye the privilege. Mr. Jones said he did not desire to be understood as wishing to force the bill through: he did not oppose the motion to refer but only the motion to print. Mr. iiiocKer thought the House al ready understood the bill and saw no use for printing.

Secretary Sherman is making great efforts to get the silver dollar into cir culation, and already the daily orders are increasing. Saturday the order was for $28,000, and to-day $20,000. The de partment began to-day sending through out the country 50,000 circulars, explain ing how the dollar may be obtained. The plan is that the department will, upon receipt of New York exchange, send to any part of the country the sil ver dollar, in sums of not less than one thousand dollars. The circulars are be ing sent to every banker, and all large business firms and manufactories. So far the orders that have been received have been almost wholly from the West. As Much at Home Hereas Anywhere. , Bock Hill (S. C.) Herald. Nothing will reach the hearts of the Northern people with better effect than the truthful and honorable statements of the Northern men who have settled among us. The statement made by this body of men shows that an shonest Northern man is as much at home in the South as elsewhere, and that being a Northern man here is certainly no disadvantage. The Southern Country will Rejoice. Bock Hill (S. C.) Herald. In this action of the North Carolina Legislature the whole Southern coun try will rejoice, for Vance is a patriot of that type and calibre which com mand general love and admiration. V EGETINK AN EXCELLENT MEDICINE. Springfield, O., Feb. 28, 1877. This is to certify that I have used VEGETINE. monufactured by H. B. Stevens, Boston, Mass., for Bneumatlsm and General Prostration of the Nerv ous System, with good success. I recommend VEGETINE as an excellent medicine for such complaints. Yours very truly, C. W.

Louisville, Ky., Feb. 16, 1877. Mr. H. R. Stevens: Dear Sir Three years ago I was suffering terribly with Inflammatory Rheumatism. Our minister's wife advised me to take VEGETINE. After tak ing one bottle, I was entirely relieved. This year, feeling a return of the disease, I again commenced taking it, and am being benefited greatly. It also greatly improves my digestion. Respectfully, Mrs. A. BALLARD, 1011 West Jefferson Street SAFE AND SURE. Mr. H. R. Stevens: In 1872 your Veeetine was recommended to me. and yielding to the persuatlons of a friend. I consented to try it At the time I was suffering from general debility and nervous prostration. superinduced by overwork and Irregular habits. Its wonderful strengthening and curative proper ties seemed to affect my debilitated system from the first dose; and under its persistent use I rapid ly i-ecovered, gaining more than usual health and good feeling. Since then I have not hesitated to give Vegetine my most unqualified indorsement, as Deutg a sare, sure and powerful agent in promot ing health and restoring the wasted system to new life and energy. Vegetine is the only medicine I use; and as long as I Uve I never expect to find a better. Yours truly, W. IL CLARK, 120 Monterey Street, Alleghany, Perm. VEGETINE The f allowing letter from Rev. G. W Mansfield, formerly pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church, Hyde Park, and at present settled in Lowell, must convince every one who reads his letter of the won derful curative qualities of Vegetine as a thorough cleanser and purifier of the blood. Hyde Park, Mass., Feb. 15, 1 876. Mr. H. R. Stevens: 1 Dear Sir About ten years ago my health failed through the depleting effects of dyspepsia: nearly a year later I was attacked by typhoid-fever in its worst form. It settled in my back, and took the form of a large deep-seated abscess, which was fifteen months in gathering. I had two surgical operations by the best skill In the State, but receiv ed no permanent cure. I suffered great pain at times, and was constantly weakened by a profuse discharge. I also lost small pieces of bone at dif ferent times. f.. j ..v , Matters ran on thus about seven years, till May, 1874, when a friend recommended me to go to your office, and talk with you of the virtue of vege tine. I did so, and by your kindness passed through your manufactory, noting the ingredients, &c, by which your remedy is produced. By what I saw and heard I gained some confi dence in Vegetine. I commenced taking It soon after, but felt worse from its effects; still I persevered, and soon felt it was benefitting me in other respects Yet I did not see the results I desired till I had taken It faithful ly for little more than a year, when the difficulty in - enloved the best of health.- 'r-rzrrr-n- - 1 nave in that time gained twenty-five pounds of flesh, being heavier than ever before in my life, and a was never more aoie to penorm laDor man now. - During the past few weeks I had a scrofulous swelling as huge as my fist gather on another part ui my uuuy. . I took Vegetine faithfully, and it removed It level with the surface in a month. I think I should have been cured of my main trouble sooner if I h;;d tak en larger doses, after . having become accustomed to its effects.
