His, Mr. Alex ander's bill, contained many good fea tures, especially as to t lie mode of tax ing railroads, but it was undesirable at so late an hour of the session to amend the bill of the committee and send it back to the House, Mr. Alexander's substitute was re jected by a vote of 19 to 10, and the bill f assed its second reading as it came rom the House and was made the spe cial order for 12 o'clock to-morrow, Senate bill in regard to changing the gauge in railroads passed and went to the House. TAX ON STATE BANKS. Senate resolution instructing and re questing our Representatives in Con gress to work for the repeal of the ten per cent, tax on State banks was con sidered and led to an animated discus sion advocated by Mr. Snow, the in troducer of the resolution, and Messrs. McEachern and King in favor, and by Mr. Everett in opposition. A motion to table failed, and it was then adopted 23 to 14 and sent to the House for concurrence. Senate-bill to-provide for the removal of incompetent registers of deeds was taken up. The bill proposed to give the power of removal to the county commission ers, subject to appeal to Superior Court judge;1 and the power of appointment for the" unexpired term to the judge solely: - Mr. Davidson got in an amendment leaving the whole matter to the; judge, and then the bill failed bv a vote of 25 to 8.

TUia bill came up on its third reading; as a tpjuai oraer, ana was wjDiU ered by sections. Mr. Vaughan offered an amendment, Tlaincr the rate of State poll tax at 60 cento instead of 72, and told theietren. chers to come forward and show their Mr. Bost said that as all property was to be re-assessed the reduced rate would be insufficient to carry on the State works, etc. Mr. Ardrey agreed with him, and said that if there was a defi ciency in the public receipts, the assem bly would have to be convened to meet the emergency, and thus entail a large added expense. Mr. Foard said that this reduction could not be made, lo this Mr. Vaughan replied that it could. Mr. Turner submitted a few remarks, asserting that the receipts from taxes would not be sufficient to meet expen ses and it was idle to talk of reduction. Mr. Reynolds offered to amend the amendment by striking out 60 and in serting 75. Lost. The question then recurred on the striking out 72 and insert- injr-m-Oir this the ayes and-nays- were.riled,-,whJthe andrneBtwair not adopted by a vote of ayes "37, "nays ' Mr. Brown, of Mecklenburg, offered; an amendment striking out section 12, which imposes a tax of one-tenth of one per cent, upon purchases of merchants and dealers. Lost. The vote then recurred on the pas sage of the bill on its final reading, when it passed, by a vote of ayes 66, nays 33. EVENING SESSION. Bill to provide for the support of the nPTiitentiarv for the vears 1879-'80, came up as a special order. The bill provides 20,000 annually for the maintenance of the convicts on the Cape Fear & Yad kin Vallev Railroad. $30,000 per annum for that of those at the penitentiary, and SH0.000 per annum for those on the Wpstpm Xorth Carolina Railroad, 250 ennv if.ta to be hereafter kept at the pen itpntirv. and the shoe shop there to be pnlarired and made a special feature. The number of convicts on the road to be reduced in case the appropriations nmvft to be insufficient tor their main- fpnanre. Mr. Clarke moved to put the pay of guards at $20 instead of $15 per month, and referred to their onerous duties, for which the sum proposed in the bill was but poor pav. The amendment was lost. Mr. Richardson, of Columbus, thought the consideration of the bill should be postponed until action was taken on the bill creating the board of internal im provements, and it was so postponed. The next special order, the bill abol ishing the insane asylum of Xorth Car lina and creating the Xorth Carolina insane asylum then passed its final reading. Then the House got at the bill crea ting a board of internal improvements, to consist of one person from each dis trict of the State, the Governor to be ex-officio chairman, and the Iward to have entire control of all the convicts, hire them out, etc. An amendment was offered by the committee to make the board consist of a member from each judicial district, the Governor, Attorney General, Treas urer and Commissioner of Agriculture. This was adopted. Mr. Carter opposed the bill as placing too much power in the hands of the Governor. Messrs. Tavlor and Lock- iart discussed the bill. The latter thought it would prove a convenience and benefit, and the board could best regulate the care and use of the con victs. Mr. Clarke opposed the bill and mov ed to table it. Carried by a vote of 51 ayes, nays 47. The discussion of the penitentiary bill was then resumed, but on motion of Mr. English the bill was then recom mitted to the committee on penal in stitutions. Bill to incorporate the town of Low ell, Gaston county, passed. Bill to extend the corporate limits of the town of Monroe, passed. At 11 p. m. the House adjourned. A Speaker Repudiated by His Party. Mr. Geo. IL Moffett, speaker of the West Virginia House of Delegates, in an interview' published "Wednesday in the Wheeling Intelligencer, stated that in case Mr. Tilden was re-nominated he expected to see a third party (Green back) organization in V est Virginia, and should take part in it. Whereupon a caucus of the Democrats of the West Virginia Housa of Delegates was Jield Wednesday evening, at., which a -reso lution was adopted declaring- -that the views expressed uy &peRer Monett do not represent the Democratic party of West Virginia, and express their deter mined disapprobation of the same. The resolution further declares that those participating in the caucus do not mean to yield or surrender in the slightest de gree Democratic principles or Demc-i cratic organization, and that if Mr. MofJ f ett's views had been known at the time of the organization of the House, the present incumbent could not have been chosen Speaker of the same.

McLANES CELEBRATED LIVER PILLS FOR THE CURE OF Hepatitis, or Liver Complaint, DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE. Symptoms of a Diseased Liver. PAIN in the right side, under the edge of the ribs, jncreases on pres sure ; sometimes the pain is in the left side : the patient is rarely able to lie on the left side ; sometimes the pain is felt under the shoulder blade, and it frequently extends to the top of the shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in the arm. The stom ach is affected with loss of appetite and sickness ; the bowels in general are costive, sometimes alternative with lax; the head is troubled with pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy sen sation in the back part. There is gen erally a considerable loss of memory, accompanied with a painful sensation of having left undone something which ought to have been done. A slight, dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility ; he is easily startled, his feet are cold or burning, and he com plains of a prickly sensation of the skin ; his spirits are low ; and although he is satisfied that exercise would be beneficial to him, yet he cari scarcely summon up fortitude enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts every remedy. Several of the above symptoms attend' the disease, but cases have occurred where few of them existed, yet exam ination of the body, after death, has shown the liver to have been exten sively deranged. AGUE AND FEVER. Dr. C. McLane's Liver Pills, in rjASEs of Ague and Fever, hen taken with Quinine, are productive of the most happy results. No better cathartic can be used, preparatory to, or after taking Quinine. We! would advise all who are afflicted with this disease to give them a fair trial. For all bilious derangements, and as a simple purgative, they are un equaled. ( ' BEWABE OP IMITATIOKsl' : The genuine are never sugar coated.

The Pataosco Bakinsr Powder is unquestionably healthful, and Is in daily use In the families of the proprietors and by every employe mine lactory. This simple fact will be a sufficient answer to every fair-minded person on this point When manu facturers use dally on their own table the same ar ticle they commend to the public they give the stroneest and most unequivocal opinion of Its mer its. But to place the health fulness of our Baking Powder beyond question, read tne clear and em phatic testimonials of the following distinguished chemists and physicians on this point, and also as to tts practical utility. ' Baltimore, Nov. 80, 1878. Messrs. Smith, Hanway & Co., Gents The Patapsoo Baking Powder is a thor oughly scientific combination, and great skill has been shown in devising it It particularly com mends Itself by the slowness In which the carbonic add Is generated. It requires heat for the com plete volution of the gas; hence in baking, the bread must become lighter than whan ordinary powders are used. I use it In preference to all oth ers In my own family, which emphatically express es my opinion of Its healthfulness. iiespeciruuy, P. B. WILSON, Analytical and Consulting Chemist, No. 80 Second St, Baltimore. Univeesttt of Maetland, January 8, 1879. , Messrs. Smith, Hanway & Co., . Gentlemen I have examined the composition or your F atansoo uakniK fowuer, and can certify that It contains nothing that can be in the least degree; oDiecnonaAie or injurious to neaun. i consider u a judicious and valuable preparation, and when used "coordlng to directions it must bo considered perfectly .safe and wholesome. Sinee all the active constituents undergo important chemical changes. when the Baking Powder Is used, it is absurd to suoDose that any of these an be transTerred un dhaneed to the food Drenared with It The whole value of the preparation depends on this chemical action which liberates the carbonic acid gas re quired; and Its peculiar value depends on the slow and gradual manner in wmcn mis acuon goes on.. It is simply Impossible to detect the slightest trace of alum or any other deleterious substance In bread or any other aracie ot;iood prepared with the patapsco waning rowaer. ...... ; Respectfully, Jtc, WILLIAM E.
