Mr. Thomas opposed the general leave of absence it would not leave a quorum. It would be better to adjourn at once.. Mr. Guyther cited precedents, and said the reso lutions had just been adopted by the House.

He thought the Speaker should be allowed to see his family at Christmas tirne if he. desired. Mr. Worth feared there would not be a quorum on the 1st of January, to inaugurate the Governor.

A resolution to refund to Theodore Strader $23,23 overpaid taxes ; ':r': ' The bill declaring the officg of sheriff in -Cabarrus county vacant and providing for the election of a sheriff. The resolution for" the rehef of Jackson Stuart former sheriff of Yancy led to a rather warm discus sion. : "rV' The case is somewhat peculiar and may be summ ed up as follows, according to the facts disclosed in the discussion : Jackson Stuart gave up the Office of sheriff and surrendered to thevcounty court the tax lists. The court received" the lists. Solomon M. Ray subsequently became sheriff and refused, under advice of counsel, to receive the tax" lists for collec tion. Stuart applied to th6 "court for the lists to ; collect the taxes, but the 'court refused to surrender them to any one but the s"herifTRay, whose counsel forbid him to receive fheni. The" "consequence was no abstract Was returned to the comptroller and no tax was collected in the county. At the last term of the Superior court of Wake both the late sheriff and the incumbent were amerced in the penalty of $1000 each. """ .. J - The resolution before theSenate proposed to remit the penalty on Stuart (a similar resolution is pend ing to relieve Ray,) in the event of the full amount of taxes being collected and returned, and all cost incurred in the matter being paid. The committee to whom the resolution had been referred reported in favor of itsTpassage under a mis understanding. ' '" A motion to recommit the resolution prevailed." , The resolution for the relief of Ray was also re committed. - . This ended the business' on' the file. On motion of Mr. Humphrey; the rules were sus pended and the bill, reported on this morning, to extend the powers' of the New River Navigation Company passed its several readings and was" or dered to be enrolled. Mr. Turner moved to take from the table the re port of the public treasurer transmitting the names of all the holders of tho bonds of the State. He said the cost of printing had been exaggerated ; but from what he had heard, if the cost amounted to two thousand dollars, the necessity for the information' would justify the 'outlay. A false impression was abroad, he said, as to w bo were the holders of our bonds. He understood they were not bought by stock jobbers and capitalists in Wall street, but by our own people ; and he thought it worth while to enquire, if this be true, whether it was necessary to continue making the bonds payable in New York ' and to subject the State to tho thate on exchange. After mentioning the rumor as regards the" disposal of the bonds of the Atlantic road and the Western N. C. road, which were alleged to have been bought up by the stockholders of those roads respectively at a great sacrifice to the State, he said there were other disclosures which would demonstrate whether our public treasurer was the financial hero he is rep resented to be. We have heard, he said in conclu sion, of pigeons and hawks I think the disclosurea made by this document will show our treasurer to be a pigeon and the capitalists the hawks. Mr. Houston hoped .the Senator's motion would . prevail, and that the document would be printed. He would like Mr. Turner should have an opportunity of unveiling these terrible mysteries. Tho motion, was agreed to. The question then- recurred on concurring in the proposition of the House to print the document. -Mr. Douthitt demanded the ayes and noes. . The vote resulted aye 86, no 1. Mr. Worth voted in the negative. On motion of Mr. Flanner, the Senate adjourned till 10 o'clock on Monday. HOUSE OF COMMONS. At half past U o'clock the House was called to or der. CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS.

Mr. Jlill, of Hali&x, said the motion was made merely to give members an opportunity of expres sing their sentiments'upon this question, which had occupied the attention of the House two years ago. Up to 1830, the power of banks to issue small bills was unlimited: but-the rtennlo 'CHIP t Vin n-rAni ?r 183G, and no bank was permitted by their charter w u 10s man irom mat year, until the last General Assembly, when the day .for .small bills came round. He .said in certain sections the people refused to enforce the law ; henco the specie did not come into circulation, and stated it never would as long as refuse paper1 money was in demand. It might be asked where the specie was to come from. He would reply, money would seek them if the pro ducts of the country .were worth money.

In Virginia and South-Carolina there. was a specie cur rency, and in Tennessee a debased paper issue which would not pass out of that-State, and considered these circumstances offered a favorable -opportunity to banish small notes. - , .. - - Mr. McKay was opposed to Mr. HCTs proposition, and insisted that small notes were the poor man's friend. He thought, there would not be specie to supply the "demand caused by the withdrawal of small bills from circulation. He denied that we could legislate gold and silver into the country and argued at some length in support of his views. He hoped the House would not legislate against small notes, which are a great benefit to poor people. Mr. BridWs was opposed to Mr. McKay's views, which he tlflooght tended to depreciate the curren cyto keep it at home. .He opposed the issue of small bills, as the larger the bills were the less the discount abroad. He stated when the bill against the issue of small notes passed, it was observed with good faith in his county ; all united to obey the law and in less than 60 days the small notes were hanl Lshed, and specie flowed in. The same occurred in irginia. He stated on the authority of a friend, the same apprehensions of a want of small change were prevalent when the 25 and 50 cent shinplasters were banished; but it was a gronndlcss alarm, for specie sooa came and supplied their place. Mr. B. examined the reports of the banks, and showed from their statements that specie could be had from New ISS at exPfn8e h section, of 83 cents in $100, and thought it could be delivered in any part of the State at 50 cents per $100, and argued that when small notes were prohibited specie would soon supply then-place.

The committee re ported a;ainst it The provisions of the bill were to require the public : treasurer to pay a portion of the school fund in naif and quarter dollars and dimes and half dimes to those counties desiring it, to be determined by the county courts, the whole expenses of which were to be deducted from the school fund of the counties receiving the coins. Mr. Gorrcll supported the bill, and urged the ne cessity of the relief in those counties remote from banks. The deficiency of small silver change had led to the flood of small bank bills. The bill pro posed to leave it optional with counties to demand the coins, and as those getting them bore the ex pense of the operation, no harm could result to any other county. The treasurer was to receive three months notice of the demand. He thought the ef fect of the bill would be to drive out the small bills from the Slate. Mr. Miller thought do good would follow, but harm. The passage of the bill would lead to specu lation and shaving, and he was for keeping them down. Mr Worth thought the silver would have to come from the mint, and that would add maternally to the expense.
