POOR OLD COMMISSIONERS. :i I - If any thing goes wrong in the body politic, if any screws are loose or any hinges need greasing, meta phorically" speaking, at once the blame is saddled on that old pack horse, the county commissioners. Of course county commissioners, being mortal, make many mistakes and we have no doubtj that there are many bad and incompetent men who occupy that dignified position in North Carolina. But they are not responsible fo all the ills that flesh is heir to, which, we suppose, includes hog cholera. The sad fact that there are any j corrupt and weak juries,, juries that can be swayed in their verdicts by the potent forces of fear, favor and affection, has been laid at their door and the cause has been alleged that they are not care ful enough to select on the jury list good men, "moral character" men, Judge Cloud would call them. This is not the only reason, however, that we have bad juries. The Judges themselves often excuse lightly good men who have been drawn and the lawyers, when they have a serious: case, very frequently are not anx ious to get good men on their juries, object to all the names that are reg ularly drawn on the jury and have the Sheriff to go outside and pick up Tom, Dick andj Harry for jurors. Bad juries are sometimes composed of just such material. This is how it worked in Craven last week, as will be seen by thel following from the New Berne Journal : "That the couniy commissioner are not in any degree responsible for incompetent and corrupt men being allowed to serve as jurors was clearl) illustrated yesterday. After the grand jury had been drawn there were but eight of the regularly drawn jurors left for the petit jury. Of course the sheriff had to resort at once to the bystanders. The com missioners might put the names of" none but saints in Ithe box, but if they are not drawn' out and sum moned to serve as juuors, the incom petent and . corrupt, about which there is so much complained by newspapers, will continue to dis charge the functions of that impor tant element of the court. A larger . number should be drawn from the box and summoned as regular ju rors." I CARRY OUT THE LA W. A correspondent of The Topic, writing from a neighboring county, complains that in his school district : the law is not carried out in , that j i provision is not made, as ordered in j the Constitution and statutes, fori levying an extra tax so as to. have sufficient school money to run the schools each year for the legal term of four months. He intimates thai the grand jury will take the matteV in hand and, as required by law, present all county commissioners who neglect this law. Our correspond ent has a just cause of complaint that applies not only to ihe commission ers of his county but to those of a majority of the counties of the State. He may remember that Su perintendent Finger dwelt at length upon this subject in his addresses made in this section, last summer. The commissioners of all the coun - ties have not been willing to carry out this law until the people are "ripe" for it. The people are "ripe" for it now and demand it and we think that, next year, the matter will be attended to. This matter .calls to mind the number of laws that are on the statute books that are "dead letters." It is abomina ble. All good laws should be carried out and none but bad laws should be "dead letters" and, more than tnat, no bad laws should be on the statute book. If laws are not to be executed let them be repealed at once. The burglary I question don't jump, we are not going to discuss it , again has been pretty fully venti lated by several of the State papers. Among them the esteemed Greens boro Patriot announces with com mendable zeal that it will "vindicate the rights of our noble women and the tens of thousands of little chil dren who are scattered pell mell all oyer the country, and daily subju gated to the will of the felonious burglars' It very properly thinks that, if the "unfortunate victims, now under sentence 'of death should be commuted," a bad prece dent would be set. ! We confess that we were in favor of the President's going to Indian apolis to attend the Vice-President's funeral and we hoped that he would not listen to the suggestions of those i solicitous and? well-meaning; though mistaken, friends, who dissuaded him from it. That the President allowed himself to be argued out of his purpose indicates that he is not the bull-headed,, obstinate man he has been described by some arid that he is willing to curb his own incli nations rather than appear in the role of a mock-heroic and dramatic poser who unconcernedly braves all dangers. His sensible reasons, giv en on the first page of The Topic, for not going show that his regard for public interests and not personal considerations kept him at the Cap ital. .''! " t STATE TOPICS.

To the Editor of The Lenoir Tonic: Miss Anna Pennell has just closed a prosperous and interesting school in Richlands, which, it is said bv some who sent, has been one of the best ever taught at that place. Miss Anna commenced free school work last fall and taughf about five months ree miles above Patterson, closing February, and besrinninir tho fnl. lowing May in the Richlands. And though she gets a first erade certifi cate, she sought improvement by at tending the Boone Normal, after which she resumed her school, anil has now finished with the good opin ion of all her patrons, the- two schools making her over $150. ' How many men there are with greater advantages than she. that have made less in the last 12 months! This is an example, girls, that you will do well to follow. J. N. ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE.
