News has the following: "The Meck lenburgers' declaration of independ ence is to be celebrated on the 20th of May. It is the great day of our neigh bor State, and seems to be growing in importance with the age of the State. It is proposed to celebrate it by a general holiday and make it evermore an an nual holiday. The 4th of July comes on the 20th of May in North Carolina ! It is the good old States rights calendar and doctrine which North Carolina holds to as the sheet-anchor of salva tion of the republic against a central ized military power at Washington.

Good Friday The religiouservices peculiar to this day, the anniversary of the crucifixion of the Saviour, are of the most solemn and unostentatious character. It is the only day in the year on which mass is not celebrated in the Koman catholic churches. No consecrated wine is used nor are the customary lights, incense and music employed. The watching and praying oi Holy Thursday gives place to universal penitence. Memories like those that the day calls up are need' ful to draw off the human heart from fun and frivolity, but as the sufferings of Jesus were of brief duration and ntueklv ended, so the solemn ceremo nies Of this day soon yve' place to sym bols which tvoifv the- victory tne pas sion accomplished.

Yesterday morning at 2 o'clock the watchman at the Air-Line depot de livered into the hands or the police a negro named Wm. Black, who was in a state of wild delirium. It seems that the negro has been very ill completely out of his senses for some days past, and some time during the night left his house, without the knowledge or any or its occupants, and fled. The watchman found him among the cars at the depot. Hailing him and failing to receive a satisfactory answer, tne watchman was preparing to fire at him, as a thier, but finding, on closer inspec tion, that he was without hat, coat or shoes, and did not know his where abouts, he brought him up town, and the police locked him up in the guard house till daylight, when his wife appeared and took charge of him. She was in great distress until she learned of his whereabouts, and the scene at the meeting is described as quite affect ing.
