Vjshinctn Star. . . !. Representative .Ccjwles expects his internal revt-uue bill, to be reported from the appropriations committee uiij to pasa both Houses. There seems to be very good grounds for his faith that sujuh a bill would go through the House promptly; if a vote were permitted ou it. If re quired to vote directly upon the proposition, no member from the tobacco districts could afford to vote against any proposition to reduce or extinguish the tobacco tax. Many of the democrats who would be compelled so to vote, ffwould, for party reasons, be glad to avoid the question, but when put to it they will nae no choice. Several who opposed sending Mr. Cobles' bill to Mr. Randall's committee, would probably feel obliged to vote for the bill reported. The passage of the bill would doubtless prevent an ex tra session of the Fifty first Con gress, and in other ways relieve the republicans of embarrassment. It would bo very apt to delay tariff re vision for a considerable time. FEELING AGAINST MR. COWLES. The democratic members of the ways and means committee and all the leading tariff reformers in the Hour.e are consequently deeply of fended at Mr. Cowles' action in putting them in this situation. They regard his action as an offense against the good of the party and a reflection upon the Speaker and the committee. The feeling is so 'in tense that it amounts almost to a personal matter. Mr. Cowles is re garded as a grave offender, and he is treated with decided coolness by manv of his party. In defense of jnis attitude he points out that he f voted for the Morrison-bill and for the Mills bill, and has always been with his party and fought for it. In this instance-he contends that he is making no attack ou the party or its leaders, but is DOING WHAT HIS CONSTITUENTS DE MANDED of him, to relieve them from a tyr anny that is keeping them poor. In the campaign, he says, he defended the Mills bills before his people, and was an advocate of tariff reform. II is people must be relieved from the oppression of the internal reve nue laws, he says, but they will all join with the party in the reduction if fhA tariff duties. ; A failure to give these people the relief they de manded, he savs, would lose North n.,mim VVW. Virginia. Virginia and portions of Georgia and leu nessee to the democrats. The small farmers in these districts, he says, suffer great loss and privation from not being permitted to sell the pro duct of their land to whom tbey please : how they have to haul it many miles at great expense, and to put it in the licensed warehouse, finally selling it for what is given them under conditions greatly to their disadvantage. i MB. RANDALL EMBARRASSED. It is still uncertain just what Mr. Randall's committee wil do in the matter. He is himsejf muchT em barrassed by the situation. It is believed that he will wait until the ways and means committee have bad the Senate bill sent them and baro been given a chance to consid er it. Then, if they report nothing, the bill referred to the. appropria tions committee will be reported. ; Canght on the fly Trout. THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY. News and Observer SENATE TENTH DAY. Mr. Payne introduced a bill to amend the oustitution of North Carolina as follows : 1st, To pre vent any member of a General As sembly which creates an office to be eligible or appointed to the first term of that office. 2nd, to make the Commissioner of Agriculture a Constitutional officer of equal dig-, nity with the Secretary of State and other officers of State elected "by the people. .3d, to make the term of office of Governor aud other State officers to' begin on the third Wed desday after the first Mondav in January so that the General assem bly can count the vote before the term of office begins. . i Mr. Twitty introduced a bill to alter the Constit tion of the State, giving to the legislature power by statue to abate, modify or abrogate section 3, article XI, aad to so alter or modify section 1 of article XI, as to establish corporal punishment for infamous offences and felonies not capital. It provides for an election at the next general election for its ratification.

Messrs. Pou, Thomas 'Lucas and Blair repotted !ills from the com mittee on corporations. Mr. Abbott reported certain bills properly en grossed. I j - Mr. Turner, of Iredell, by per mission, introduced a bill changing the Normal School from Newton, in ' atawba county, to Statesvilie, i'n Iredell ceuuty. Mr. Blair offered an amendment striking out Statesvilie and inserting , which was followed by con siderable discussion and a motion to "refer to the committee on education, which was adopted. During the discussion of this bill Mr. Williams, of Pitt, said that he was of opinion that these nor mal schools were very much of a humbug: He was strongly- in fa vor of a State Normal School, per manently located, as was the great Agricultural and" Industria' follegc, and for that purpose he would vote for an appropriation to establish such a one. He said he had talked with a large number of young ladies who had attended these schools perhaps more than $he younger members of this Senate had and they all reflected the idea that at these schools they had "just a per fectly" lovely time, a jolly good time." He believed the .normal schools in the pleasure districts of the mountains and teachers' gather ings at the seashore were nothing more than pleasure gatherings for courting and flirting purposes end that the teachers might learn to eat soft crabs, escallops and other s.dt. water delicacies, lie was a etro: g supporter of a permanently located normal school, strictly disciplined for the instruction of teachers, and for such one would" he willingly vote for money to eiitcblish, but as they are now conducted he had no faith in them and hopod the b ll be referred to the committee on ed ucation'for proper consideration. house. . .

Fashionabla RJusis Tha Liiy, the Musis, and Selcnon. Good lIMicl;erpi:ig. A'Ltem.ing service not long :igo in -i'.n elegant church edifice, where tbey worship God with-taste in a highly tcsthelic uumner, the cho;r began that scriptural poem thajt compares Solomon with the lilies af the field somewhat to the formers disadvantage. Although never pos sessing a great admiration for Solo mon, iior considering him a suitable person to hold up as ii shining ex- t . .i -xr it ample oeiore tne loung iien s Christian Association, i still a pang of pity for him was felt when the choir, after expressing admiration of the lilies of the field, .which it is doubtful if they observed very closely, began to tell the congrega tion, through the mouth of the so prano, that "Solomon in all iris glory was not arrayed .", Straights ay the soprano wa3 re-enforced by the ba;s, who declares that Solomo n was most decidedly and emphatically not arrayed was not arrayed. Then the alto ventured it as her opinion that Solomon was not arrayed, when the tenor, without a moment's hesita tion sung as if it had been officially announced that "he was not array ed' ! j Then, when the feelings of the congregation had been harrowed up sufficiently, and our sympathies all aroused for poor Solomon, whose numerous wives allowed him to' go about in such a fashion even iu that climafc), the choir altogether, in a most cool and composed manner, informed us that the idea they in tended to convey was that Solomon in all his giory was not arrayed "like one of these." These" what ? So long a time had elapsed since they sung of the lilies that the tbread was entirely lost, and by "these" one naturally concluded that the choir was designated. Arrayed like one of -these ? We should think not, indeed ! Solomon in a Prince Al bert or cutaway coat ? No, most decidedly Solomou in the very zenith of his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Despite the experience of the morning, the hope still lernainod that in the evening a sacred song might be sung in a manner that would not excite our risibilities, or leave the impression that we had been listening to a case of blackmail. But again off started the nimble soprana with the very lauduable though rather startling announce ment, "I will wash. " Straightway the alto, not to be outdone, declared she would wash. And the tenor, finding it to be the hing, warbled forth he would wash. Then the deep-chested basso, as though call ing up all his fortitude for the plunge, bellowed forth the stern re-r solve that he also would wash. Next a short interlude on the organ, strongly suggestive of the escaping of steam or splash of the waves, after which the choir individually ; nd collectively asserted the firm, un.haken resolve that they would wash. At last they solved the prob lem by stating that they proposed to 'wash their hands in iuiiccency, so will the altar of the Lord be com passed." 1 " Sugar Grovs Letter. Sugar Grove, Jan. 14. 7b the Editor of The Lenoir Topic: Winter up here in our grand pla teaus of the Blue Ridge and Smokey Mountains, so far, has been a medly rot rain anoS mud, snow and cold, shade aud sunshine, cold nights and warm days. Such changeable wta ther is hard on our growing wheat crop. Our supply for this year of grace ('89) will be a little short, but the money crop is a failure and .threatens us with a money famine ; so much so that Sheriff Hayes has advertised about three hundred and 6eventy-(ive tracts of land, and town lots to he sold for taxes on the first Monday in February. This is a bit ter pill for taxpayers, and our re publicau friends say they can swal low it, but they'll be darned if they hanker for it. The far away western fever is spreading like wild fire among our people, and many are talking of selling out to go to Washington Territory. Thy seem to regard it a '"the land of promise, flowing v,;.h inilk ;mi honey .". When they, gut there 1 i.opt they will not hun ger for the fl.-shpots , of good old Watauga, and y like our friend John. Bernhardt, that Watauga is wood enough for them. John is right, aud we join him in saying that Western North Carolina is good enough country for our people, if they will be good enough for om country. We think there is as much in the man as in the country ; and this reminds me of a remark of an old man, Esq. Bedant Baird. He said "a mau that couldn't live any where wouldn't live nowhere." North Carolina is represented by her native born citizens in nearly all of the States and Territories. This ought not so to be, for we need both labor and brain to develop our vast undeveloped resources and to im prove and build up our country. Nature has given us a wonderful country, embracing a diversified cli mate, soil and production,, rich in its water .power, "its valuable ami and abundant timbers, its minerals r.nd nifcttils of gold, silver, copper, iron, mica aud precious stouesr- In l.'i .. nearly all the minerals and metals are found in North Carolina Why is it, then, that our people will leave so goodlv a laud to seek a better country in the wjlu's of tnc far west, even to the sbjores of the. great Pacific Ocean ? A new coun try offers and imposes many hard ships and privations' to emigrants and settlers aud a high order of so ciety for crime, dissipation, sin aud wickedness. Are we willing to tae all these evils for the sake of mnuty, for the hope of wealth, that is so fickle that it often takes the wings of the morniug aud flies away on the winds of the evening 'i There fore let me .entreat and persuade young men and good citizens to not leave their natie home and country right on tho eve of a bright and hopeful era of promising prosperity. For instance,, note the three silver mines located respectively on Beech Mountain, Buckeye. Creek,. Gn Ld father Mountain, and ou Baird's Creek. They, together with other good indications, "are destined ere long to be tested and if found to be rich, of which I have no doubt, it will bring capital and labor to our country to work those mines and wealth will bring our much needed and long hoped for railroad. Such is our prospects in a nutshell. There is and has been a series of meetings held with nearly all the churches, both Baptists and Metho dists, resulting in mauy conversions and confessions of faith. Our young men and fair damsels are marrying .and being given in marriage, and old people, too ; for instance, William Miller, of Meat Camp, lately married Betty Wilson, of Cove Creek, the former being 82 and the latter about 60. And then some of our people are obeying the injunctions of Deity to our first parents, "Be ve fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth," there being two pairs of twins born Christmas week. One set boys, the other set girls. Can Caldwell beat that ? Mr. Will Moore, of Caldwell, has recently purchased a new steam saw mill. He is now sawi ig on Cove Creek at Mr. David Lowrance's. Will is an energetic, go-ahead fellow and knows just how to run a saw mill and save the dimes. Progress and improvement is1 the order of the day. Shell & Mast, merchants, are building a larganew store house ; Fin Holsclaw a new dwelling house; J. M. Stokes has bought C. C. Glenn's drug store. Our old friend, ex-Sberiff Mc Bride, is again a citizen of our county. We are glad he is with us again and extend to him a hearty welcome, ; A series of meetings commemced with Antioch Baptist church on the 4th of Jan. and is still going on with good results ; some 12 or 15 professions and as many additions to the church conducted by the Rev. Carroll Johnson. One of onr best citizens, F. P. Mast, owning one of the best and largest farms in the county is pro posing to sell to go to Washington Territory. Today, the 17th, is one of win ter's lovely days, so still, so clear, so bright, so warm, so pleasant, it seems like a May day. N. N. Growth of a Big Book. When Webster's Unabridged was first published in one volume, it was a comparatively small book. ' Some years after, anadditon was made of 1500 Pictorial Illustrations, A Table of Synonyms, and an Appendix of New Words that has come into use. A few years later came an entirely new revised edition of larger size, with 3000 Pictorial Illustrations; then, after an interval of a few years, a Biographical Dictionary of nearly 10,000 Names aud a Sup plement of nearly 5000 New Words were added; and now there has come another new and most valuable ad A Gazetteer of the World, of over 25,000 Titles. The Work is now not only the best Dictionary of the words of the language, but is a Bi ographical Dictionary, a Gaztteer of the World, and a great many oth er good and useful things in its many valuable Tables.
