A SiiltillT niSAPPMEllEnSlON, The Raleigh News and Obseryer, and the Greensboro Tatriot, noting the ru mor published in this paper of the fail ure of Mr. Best and the Boston Syndi cate to meet their first payment, accord ing to agreement, on the lease of the Atlantic and Nortn Carolina Railroad misapprehend the position of The Ob server, if they suppos we are "mak ing merry' over the failure of such a "great enterprise." The fact is The Observer wishes all such enterprises well, but doubts the ability of Mr. Best to carry any such attempt to a success ful issue. We have no confidence in his professions nor in his ability to do what he nretends he can do. If that road is ever built from Goldsboro to Salisbury it will be by some one else, and not by Mr. Best, who thus far ha3 been distin guished only by the abundance of his promises, and by his utter failure to carrv them out. His proposition to build the Midland road was based on the contingency of getting possession of the Western North Carolina Rail road and be stands about as much chance of doing that as he does of going to glory in the flesh. As a warm advocate of internal im provements in the State, and in favor of any and every work which tends to her development, we would rejoice to know that Mr. Best had the capacity to stfrry out the schemes he projects, and realize one-half the hopes he has inspired in those whose confidence he gained, by assurances which he has not made good. If North Carolina depends upon Mr. Best for a road that will con nect her moiintais with the sea, she will, we fear, wait a long a very long time. We assure our worthy cotemporaries that we would much rather chronicle the completion of such a work than its failure, and will be glad to learn that we have been mistaken as to the ability and intentions even of Mr. Best. or twenty years of active hie we have been battling for North Carolina and North Carolina s interest, and we point with pride to the record of our lire-work, lnere may be snort com ings but they are errors of the head and not of the heart. Because we do not see success in an adventurer like Mr. Best: because we have had the manliness to say just what we thought, and what the people will all find out after a while, there are 'those who would decry us. The building of a grand trunk line through the State, to connect the Wes tern portion of the State with a sea port of our own is an idea worthy of the ambition of any man, but to-day it is theory merely. With the North Car olina Railroad and the Western North Carolina Koad in working order as they now are, the business man who would put his money into another road between Gold3boro and Salisbury, would be little better than an idiot. It might be patriotic.but railroads are not built these days out of patriotic senti ment. The North Carolina Railroad cost four millions and the Western North Carolina Railroad has already cost six millions 01 dollars; six per cent on this sum would be six hundred thousand dollars, to say nothing of running expenses. Does any sane man suppose for an instant that a line projected and built as a competing line to these roads would ever pay a dollar of dividends ? On the contrary it could not pay the cost of operating it, to say nothing of interest on its cost. No legislature would ever dare to vote dollar towards its construction, nor Would any good business man ever in vest a dollar in it. If these be facts then why not brush away the thin veil of pretention put up by Mr. Best and his friends to hide them until the time comes to unload? If to do thi3 be "jaerry making" then we do not under stand the power of the Englinsh lan guage. Aye, more, "It this be treason, make the most of it." iney have a way of letting a man aown easy in Chicago. When a promi nent citizen got drunk at a wedding, and, being called on for a speech, rallied the father of the bride because he didn't have his other family residing on the east side present at the wedding, and so kicked up a perfect hades of a time, the papers said merely that "the re marks of Mr. Jowls were somewhat in appropriate." A strong pressure is being brought to bear upon the President by promi nent Republicans and tjournals of the South, especially New Orleans, to have the present Secretary of the Navy, Hunt, retained, the claim being made that he is a representative of Southern Republicans m the broadest sense of the word. The hanging of Guiteau cannot be an immediate matter, as most people seem to think. Under the law he can not be hanged until thirty days after the opening of the next term of the court. This will not be until the 4th of April, and therefore the date of Gui teau's execution cannot po3sibly take place until the 4ih of May. Henry C. Spaulding, who was famous once as the inventor of "Spaulding's glue," found himself in the New Alba ny, Ind., lock-up the other night for drunkenness. He says that he sold the right to manufactnre the glue to a con cern who made a round million, but he got nothing out of it. The debt of Great Britain heads the list of national debts for size, that of the United States comes second, and the debt of France ranks third. The United States is the only nation that is engaged in paying off its debt, with the serious purpose of doing it, too.

Speaking with Mr. McGehee yester day about the results of the Atlanta Exposition and the noble snow our State made there, he said it was in truth cause for pride. But said he, though the Department of Agriculture feels such pride in tnis, yet there is an other bit of its work the past autumn which has been even more prolific of good results. In response to an inquiry aa to.what this good bit of work was, Mr. McGehee said that early in the au tumn, seeing the work of the drought with the crops, the department issued a circular in which the necessity for put ting in heavy crops of small grain, par ticularly wheat, was strongly urged upon the farmers. They were told that these crops would supply necessities and that they should be sown up to the last moment. The press of the State took up the idea and repeated the ad vice. Now as a result we have one of the largest if not the largest grain crop ever sown in the State. In many coun ties the increase, as compared with last year, is two, three and four hundred fold, while some counties actually re port it a thousand fold. Wheat was put in the ground up to the last availa ble moment. This was the case iu nearly all parts of the State, and where the work of the drought bad been the worst the largest crop has been sown. The reports further indicate that the small grain crops look well, and the in dications point to an abundant harvest next year. Cotton fields were sown down in the grains, and in some coun ties very large areas of cotton lands are now green with wheat and oats in vigorous growth. In traveling twenty miles in North Carolina, at any given space between Raleigh and Charlotte, a traveler sees more wheat than m the course ot a day s journey through boutn Carolina and tieorgia.

Frye reported from the committee on rules, a resolution authorizing the selecLcommittee,on woman suffrage to employ a clerk. Adopted. At 12o the Sherman funding bill was proceeded with, Mr. Garland hav ing the floor. Mr. Garland argued to show that the relation of banks to the government was that of mere fiscal agents, and that Vest's amendment was a logical and legal sequence of funding. He was not wedded to the idea of the three per cent, bond, but was willing to take the assumption of saving 61,000,000 annual ly, for what it was worth. Allison inquired for information whether upon Garland's construction of its language Vest's amendment ma king the new bonds the sole basis of bank circulation, would require the banks having Z per cents, on deposit to surrender these and take three per cents.? He did not so understand it Mr. Garland: we will try to make it broad enough to cover that. Plumb renewed his amendment so as to require the use of all funds now in the treasury for the redemption of u nited states notes in excess of 8100. uou,uuo, in the redemption of 3h per cents., sucn redemption to be made in not less than three installments, and the said sum of 9100,000,000, so left in me treasury, snail not be increased or diminished except in redemption of United States notes. He also gave notice of additional amendments, and proceeded to argue that upon anv calculation of interest the government would now lose more than it could realize by an attempt at refunding Replying to Allison's inquiry. Vest explained that his amendment did not apply to bonds held by banks now ; it merely applied to banks now ia exis tence which seek to increase their cap! tal after July 1st, 1832, or to banks which seek to go into business after that date. The debate was continued by Allison, bnerman and 1'iumD. The fact becoming apparent at 4:20 that several Senators desired to speak who had not participated in the dis cussion, the- bill was info aside until Monday. A bill was introduced by Jonas for the relief or the Mechanic s and Traders Bank of New Orleans. lij Jjidmunds, relating to a quorum of the Supreme Court of the United States, providing that hereafter a ma jorityof the Justices, instead of six, snau constitute a quorum.

By Johnston, by request, three bills as follows : To authorize the coinage of silver dollars and fractions thereof of full standard value upon the metric system ; to utilize the coinage of the. goloid metric dollar, two dollars and fractions of a dollar, and also the coin age of metric gold double eagles, eagles and half-eagles, all of standard value; to authorize a new metric gold coin for internal use, to be known as the stella. ne ioregoing three bills are copies or Dins Heretofore introduced in the House by Stephens, of Georgia. Brown offered a declaratory resolu tion that it is inexpedient and unwise to contract the currency ty the with drawal irom circulation or what are known as silver certificates, or to dis continue or further restrict silver com age ; further, that gold and silver coin Daseo upon a proper ratio or equiva lents between two metals and issues of paper predicated upon and convertible into coin on demand constitute the proper circulating medium of this country.

A PACKED HOUSE TO WITNESS If, DArldg-e compliments the Jary nd Arffnes the Case But One Point Insanity and Ilero There la None. Washington, D. a. Jan. 12. The au dience which assembled in the court room this morning to listen to the ar gument to the jury in the Guiteau case was a large and intelligent one, which entering the room at an early hour waited patiently the arrival of the court, counsel and prisoner. The marshal gave the spectators due notice that no one would be permitted to leave until the hour for recess, and for the purpose of emphasizing his re marks fie ordered that the main door should be locked. At 10 0 clock, sharn. the jury entered and a few minutes later the court was called to order. Davldge then took his position in front ot the jury and opened his speech with a disclaimer ot any intention to make a tt speech but expressed his simple desire to render the jury what aid he could in their present solemn duty. The time had now come in this trial when the jury were to become factors. Whatever disorder or levity might have characterized the trial, there was but one sentiment in respect to the conduct of the jury. All commended their dig- nlned deportment and their patient and close attention to the evidence, and he could not doubt that, as they bad re ceived the commendation of all in the fiast, they would continue to deserve it n the future by their decision of the question before them. There is here, gentlemen, (he contin ued) but a simple point for discussion and consideration. The subject of it is insanity. The court will tell you that in this land of law it is not allowable for a man coldly, deliberately and treacherously to slay another, and then to say he had no malice. The court win ten you wnen it comes to charge you that to constitute the crime of murder the existence or malice is wholly unnecessary, and that, indeed, a crime committed is innnltely worse in the absence of that element than if it was present In the beginning of the trial (as you all will recollect) an inef fectual attempt was made in tbe direc tion of showing that the death of the President was attributed to tbe treat ment by the surgeons who attended him with so much fidelity and ability. Tbat attempt was short lived, however, and was very speedly abandoned, so tbat there is now but a single question for you to determine, and that is the ques tion of insanity. In the progress of the trial very many vague and general expressions have crept into the case. v e have heard of crazy men, of men off their balance, of insane men, and hence it was necessary to apply to the court for a clear and perspicuos defi nition as to what is insanity in a legal sense. Medical experts have denned insanity from the stand-point of medi cine, and it was necessary to have it defined from the stand-point of law. Even if the man be deficient in intel ligence it does not follow that he shall be permitted to commit murder with impunity. It takes one degree of intel ligence for a man to make a contract another to make a will and another to do any other act. But when you come to crime, such a crime as we have here, murder, "murder most foul and unnatural," the law re quires a very slight degree of intelli gence indeed, it was, gentlemen, in order to make the question perfectly clear, and to abridge your labors so far as to prevent you being led astray by the introduction of irrelavent matter that the prosecution asked the court to state succinctly what constitutes malice and insanity in legal intent. The court has spoken, and it has not spoken in any vague or ambiguous language. It has laid down two instructions for your guidance, which I will now read. Mr. Davidge read Judge Cox's instruc tions No. 1 and No. 2.1 In commenting on tbe first and second instructions, Mr. Davidge said, "that is, gentlemen of the jury, if any human being has any degree of intelligence which enables him to understand the act he is doing, and if he has sense enough to 'know. and does know, that that act is in vio lation of tbe law of tbe land or wrong; then, no frenzy, no passion, will afford any excuse whatever; then, no disease of his moral nature will constitute any excuse whatever; then, no belief, how ever profound, though the man through reason and reflection may reach the conclusion that the act is the sugges tion of, and commanded by Almighty God, will afford any excuse whatever for tbe perpetration of crime. His sole and exclusive excuse is disease of the mind, obliterating the sense of differ ence between right and wrong and ab solutely controlling the judgment and reason or the party. Thus you will see that the degree of reason necessary to make a man responsible is very limited indeed; thus you will see that a man may be here who has been styled a crank, or off his balance, and even par tially insane, and yet abundantly responsible ror tne crime, w hat is the acv committed here? murder. Murder by lying in wait, what is commonly caned assassination. as Mr. Davidge traced the process of reasoning by which the prisoner gradually, reached the conviction that "but one little life interposed between himself and possibly a great benefit, Guiteau became restless, and for the first time since the opening of tbe court indicated by his nervous twisting about the usual preliminaries to a series of interruptions, which in this instance quickly followed "hot after," Said Mr. Davidge, no where "in the records of heinous crime do we have such plain and pointed evidence as to the first conception of the crime. In this case the suggestion came to the wretch in thenight as he was lying in his bed." "It came to me when the Lord got ready to have it," snarled the prisoner. Davidge continued, "this thought or suggestion came to him on the 18th of May. Still thinking that he might ob tain the office he sought, and keep his naoas ciean, ne made another effort on the 28th of May to induce the Presi dent" Guiteau called out from the dock, "1 woman c nave taken a foreign mission after the first of June if it had been of fered to me." Mr. Davidge apparently not heed ing him Mon the 28th of May" Guiteau: MI am talking about the first of June." Davidge, pausing a moment, "just lis- An 4--v Kim " Guiteau, sneeringly, "they would lis ten to you but your talk is so weak it is hardlv worth liatanincr to" For several minutes Guiteau contin ued to interject his comments, with the evident intention of annoying Davidge but finding he could not effect this he gradually subsided into complete si fence.
