We lay before our readers says the Raleigh Standard, the following letter from Secretary Se- j ward to Gov, Holden, requesting him to present i to the Legislature the Constitutional -Anierrament relative to the abolition of slavery : duplicate. Department of State, Washington, .February 2, 1865. To hit Excellency, the Governor of the State of North Carolina, Raleigh, N. C. Sir : I transmit an attested copy of a Joint Resolution of Congress, approved on the 1st in stant, proposing to the Legislatures of the sever al States a Thirteenth Article to the Constitution of the United States. Your Excellency is re quested to cause the decision of the Legislature of North Carolina to be taken upon the suoject. An acknowledgment of the receipt of this com munication is requested by your Excellency's Most obedient Servant, F. W.SEWARD, Actiog Secretary.

Os Drr. A negro was arrested yesterday by that efficient city officer, Wm. C. Parker, upon charge of stealing horses. His name is John McGuire and he hails from New York. It is now believed that he is the ringleader, the chief of desperadoes who, ?bput a month since, visited the house of Mr Harry O. Parker, near this city, and besides plundering the premises of money, whipped that gentleman and his wife and committed other outrages. The negro was turned over to the military authorities, who thought so highly of the. rascal as to treat bim to a pair of handcuffs and a splendid fob chain with an inconveniently large ball attached to if. Our hope is that the surmise with respect to the guilt of McGuire may not turn out to be a fable. The military authorities have proceeded with particular caution and marked determina tion in this affair. From the day when the offence was committed up to the present boor, they have pursued the idea of bringing the guil ty wretches to justice and we have every confi dence that, if possible, they will succeed. Ral eigh Progress, Nov. 17. . Death of Judge Withers. We regret to learn from relatives residing in this place, that Hon. Thomas J. Withers died at his resi dence in Camden, on Thursday last. Judge Withers was a native of York District, and has long been proniioent in the State. His death, especially at this time, is much to be deplored. We hope that some person competent to the task, will furnish us with a biographical sketch of bis life. Yorkcille Enquirer. A Graceful Courtesy- Gen Gilmore, U S A, lately interested himself in securing the "pardon" of Gen Elliott, who defended Fort Sumter against Gen Gilmore's siege. Gen G. asked the President to grant the application as "a personal favor to himself." Gen Elliott was occupying a fisherman's hut at Port Royal, and wis supporting his family by fishing. The par don will secure to him the immediate restoration of his lands close to which bis fisherman's hut now stands. . , ' tm Money was never so plenty and so cheap in California as now.

John A. late of the army, has . been appointed States Minister to the Republic of The, following appears in the Boston Com monwealth : "It is a pleasing instance of the transmission of noble qualities from father to son that the two younger sons of the late Horace Mann, upon the loss, by their brother, of bis -property in the Concord Bank, through the re cent robbery, at occe informed bim that one third of thoir joint bequest should be bis." all Southern Europe, may form some idea of what value the Pea-nut, as an oil-producing plant, may become to as. It furnishes a bland, limpid oil whiob for all cooking purposes is supe rior to lard.." A Parisian cook prefers Olive Oil for frying, shortening, Ace, dec, and we who are so fond of greasy dishes, and who find lard and butter so hard to procure in these hard times, ought to wake up to the importance of producing a better article than either, more healthful, and more abundant. The Pea-nut produeea from 50 to 100 bushels per acre, and I am infomed by Mr. Joseph Tooke, an enterprising manufacturer of Aemocrat, ri Hayneville, Ga., that Jii -pounds of good clean pj"" q peas in the hull will produce 3 quarts of oil. A flu:-- bushel of peas, from which all the defective ones are removed, will weigh from 20 to 24 pounds. The poorest land at this rate will produce over 3J gallons of oil per acre, and 5 acres in Pea nuts would make about 4 battels, a- aufScient quantity, I think, for all family purposes. The Pea-nut Oil, unless propedy purified and ex cluded from the air, will become rancid, just as butter and lard will become rancid, and we know what. pains are taken in France and Italy to pre serve Olive Oil fresh, by the careful manner in which our salad oil bottles are sealed. Mr Tooke owns a Hydraulic Press and has been manufac turing this Oil ever since the war commenced: He" says: Being engaged in a cotton andwoolen factory, I at once saw the importance of Oil to keep up my business. I therefore set to work to make Oil, which I find pays more in proportion to cap ital invested than anything I have. I also raise the Grouud Peas on ray farm and find them a very profitable crop, making more- per acre than anything I plant. The Oil for machinery has but one superior, and that is, the best quality of Sperm Oil. It makes a very good Salad Oil some prefer it. The yield per bushel of peas is 75 per cent that is 24 pounds of good clean peas in the hull will make three quarts of Oil. I am running all my machinery, factory, wood shops and engines, and use nothing else, and I believe I get along just about as well as when I used the Sperm Oil. . I have kept some over a year and find no difference in it. It rs also a very superior Lamp Oil. I use it entirely for lamps. I could manufacture it for one-fifth of the Oil, but prefer to buy the peas and raise them together. I can, with six hands, make an average of forty-five gallons of Oil per day, and the cake is a fine food for hogs, of course what can be better ?) and upon the whole, tho raising of Ground Peas is a good business, and pays all way through. . Oil is worth iu Macon $35 per gallon by the barrel. I have sold some at $40 to $50." The soil best snited to the Pea-nut is light and sandy, such as will best suit water melons and sweet potatoes. Too -damp or irrigated land will not do. as the pea will over-shoot itself. The time to plant is from the 1st to the 10th of April. Break up your land , and leveL with the harrow; open your drills four feet apart from one to wo inches deep. The pea has to be broken and two kernels dropped iu the. drill, tweuty-four inches apart. S-1V. Mr Gammon, of Florida, plants them with his corn in alternate rows. He says : "There is-no crop yields such amplo pay for the labor be stowed on it as the pea. I lay off my corn land in drills, three and a half feet apart, planting every alternate row in corn, the other with the pea, thus making each seven feet apart, giving good room to work each. After gathering a cut of corn the last of August, I turned iu my hogs the first day of. September, and they have not had an ear of corn thrown to them" up to this writing, March 22d, and were it not that the field has to be planted for the next cropthere would be an ample supply for them one or two months to come. One might ask if I raised my own pork, to which I reply 3'es. and nearly double a suffi ciency, that was killed from the field without a day's confinement for corn feeding." This, of course, in the mild' climafe of Florida, is better than wa could expect to do here, but still I be lieve the crop to be of immense value to us, the greatest of which' is as an article of food. Mr Jefferson was greatly interested in the experi ment of introducing the Olive tree into the South ern States. He said there- was no plant so val uable lhat a few trees would support a family the Oil making such a, number of vegetable dishes palatable and nourishing, in the way of frying, enriching. &c. The experiment has failed ex cepting near the Southern coast, but may we not hope a few acres of Pea-nuts will supply every family with "an abundance of Oil equal to the Olive. The Washington correspondent of the Cin cinnati Gazette says the President will present his views at length on the negro suffrage quesr tion in his message to Congress. The same cor respondent says there are rumors of a general amnesty to those States, which repudiate, the rebel debts and adopt the constitutional amend ment.. ...
