Nothing of very gravo iuiportanco
liM truniipireJ in this bfuly since the
orgaa'.tation, an account of which was
gi' en in oor last issue The usual
“ Mes-sage" was received irom the Gov
ernor, which proved to be nothing more
than a rehash of the dirty campaign
speeches with which he so much dis
gusted the decent people of the State
during bis canvass last summer.
A bill h* been introduced looking
to the adjustment of the State debt,
which will be more fully noticed here
after. Mr. McNeill introduced a bill
exempting Robeson from the operation
of the “ Deer law’* passed at the last
session. A bill providing lor the elec
tion of Superior Cout^ Judges by the
people of their respective districts has
been introduced and passed first aud
aeooud reading in the House.
On Friday last, Mr. Troy introduced
in the Senate a hill to provide a system
of public instruction, to replace the.
ridiculous farce now in vogue. Mr.
Todd a bill more effectually to punish
horse stealing.
In the House, on Friday, several
Committees were announced We no
tice the name of Jlr Richardson, of
Coluuibu.H, on Coniinittee on Finance
«nd Mr. McNeiiUof Robeson, on House
branch of Committee on Joint Rules.
Mr. Blackwell intrrduccd a bill to
exempt Ministers ot the Gospel from
the payment of poll tax, working on
roads and serving on juries.
On Saturday, in the Senate, several
standing committees were .announced.
We notice tlie rtanie.« of Troy, of Gum-
borland and Ellis of C dumhus on the
committee on Claims—Troy Chairman.
Cap. Ellis is also on the committee on
Education,^and on joint comn.Utce on
Insane Asylum, and Mr. Troy on joint
committee on Penal Instituti.nis.
Mr. McCauley iiirr -duccd a bill to
Ti'i'Cal the " I'et-r law of l.ist sc.^sion
Refened to enuiniiitee •:n Propositions
and (iii'.vanees.
In the IIou.-.', oil Saturda}. standing
coiumit’Eeo.'were appionted, Mr. T. '
McNeill is C’nairman of t!io coiiiinittoo
on Claims, and also a member "1 the
joint committee on the State Library.
We notice the introJu tion of the
following bills:
By Mr. Byrd, a bill to exempt wid
ows and certain pers^ ns fr'm taxation,
■ Jprovidgs thal widows aiid perSons'bver
fifty years of age who own no real estate
and not over 8200 worth of personal
property, be exeaipt.
/By .Mr. McNeill, a resolution instruct
ing Finance cornmitme to enquire into
the matter of t^^ing the propertv of
Railr. ad Corporations, in which t^ie
State has lost its interest, and to report
as early as possible—under a suspcn.si-in
cf the rules passed.
Tl^ bill providing for the election ot
Judges bjr the voters of the respective
Districts was called up upon its third
reading.
3Ir. Goodwin called for the ayes and
nays, when the bill passed by a vote of
64 ayes and 38 nays^ the same vote as
on its second reading.
Since writing the above we have re
ceived from Mr. T. A. McNeill the fol
lowing telegram, giving result of the
ballot yesterday Another ballot will
be had to-day.
It will bo seen that Pool runs only
five votes behind Vance, while Mcrri
mon’a-fuil strength is 18.
We trust that the na^cs of both
these eager aspirants will bo withdrawn,
and that our Conservative friends will
unite upon some gentleman more worthy
and capable than either of them.
The tolluwing is the dispatch ailud-
ed to:

^0«JR Aghiculturai. Fairs.—It is
too evident to be disguised that the in
terest of the masses of -the people our
agricultural fairs (so-oalUd) is rapidly
declining. Wo did not have the pleas
ure, this fall, of attending any of the
numerous fairs held in this State, but
truui whoi we have boon able to gather
from our exchanges as well as from
private sources, we are satisfied that the
exhibitions of domestic products were
far behind those of last year.
There must bo some reason for this
discouraging state of things, and it be
hooves those who have the management
of these fairs to inquire what it is.
We believe the principal cause of dis
satisfaction is in tlie/want of proper
regulations restricting the competition
to our ov n domestic products.
With the meagre facilities possessed
by our mechanics they cannot hope to
compete successfully with the work
shops of the Northern States aud of
Europe, where they have all the ad
vantages of the most improved machine
ry, and the combined skill of a score of
the most accomplished mechanic.s can
bo employed upon a single piece of
work. For inswnne, if one of our me
chanics produces a plow or harrow, or
other iiiipt^ineiit of superior merit, he
is deterred from entering it at the fair
lor a premium from tlie consideration
thac, though it may be for superior in
solid merit to any article of the same
kind on exhibition, it must inevitably
fall behind the painted and tinseled pro
ducts of the foreign manufactories in
elegance of 6111.-11 and bo unnoticed
amid the grand display of articles of the
same kind placed on exhibition by
some dealer in agricultural im^mCTts
who enters the lists against him with
the finest productions of the mechanical
genius of the two hemispheres.
The competition at our fairs should
be restricted to the products of our
own section, and no article should be ad
mitted to compete for a premium except
such as are produced by the party mak
ing the entry
We should be glad to see a general
dtiCusSImr ot this subject. It is certain
that the iiitoresi in our fairs is abating,
and unless something is done to enlist
I he popular tuvor to a greater extent
than at present they must, in a short
tiiiic, cease to attract any attention
whatever.
Returned 10 Hi.s Ow.v.—It will
be renieaibored that one ol tho first
things done' by the so-called Liberal
Republican Committc'-, after tlie nomi
nauon of Horace Greeley, was to employ
« bniee of negro orufors and send them
into tbis State to canvass in behalf of
their eandidate for the Presidency.—
IlayiDg fulfilled their engagement as
libmi republtcane, they have, since the
two, been devoting themselves with
reneweddlfnl^ and seal to the interests
of tbeji; oldl^l^ter, U S. Grant. One
of themNlnp^itticr by name, ha- since
tlie electi>(^)ftMind eongeoial employ,
aient as reporter tor the Uhroniele news-
paper, ^beadminietration organ at Wash
iaippn, and it ia now annunneed that he
atart a daily paper in the eity
of Ihleigb. So enda the latest attempt
to rome the ilavt trade in the United
Htcsult of the August Eicr4lou.
Tlie comparison ot the vote of the
State lor Governor and ether Stale offi
cers in August last, commenced by the
Legislature on the second day of its
-ession, iaus '.lOfyel bcirn cmnplctt
was Ibui.d that the returns of- four
counties had not been received at the
office of the Secretary of State, riid
irregularities and inacuracics were- dis
covered in the returns of otlie'* countie.s
that made it necessary to suspend ope
rations until the missing returns could
be brought in and a committee appoint
ed for the purpose could examine and'
report upon the irregularities referred
to.
An adjournment of tho joint session
of the two Houses for this purpose was
therefore taken from the,20 inst., to the
4th December, when the examination
of tlie return;; will be completed and the
result deplured.
It appears that some of the counties
voted for James C. Reid for Superin
tendent of Public Instruction, instead
of “ James ReiJ,” the nominee of tl e
Radical party, and if the Li gislature
shall decide that the votes cast for Jas
G. Reid can not be counted for James
Reid, then. Noreus Mendeuball will be
declared duly elected Superintendent of
Public Instruction.
It appears, also, that the entire rc
publican vote of New Hanover county
was cast for Guswell R,' Hargrove, in
stead ol /Tazetstell ]j. Hargrove, for
Attorney Ceneral/vHoth Williaun M
Shipp is, therefore, elected—Auornev
General, unless the Legislature can de
cide that Goswell R. Hargrove and
Tazewell Jj.. llvrgruve are one and the
same

Small Pox.—We learn that aeveraj
ca?e8 of Small Pox have occurred in
Harnett county within the past two
weeks, and the disease is reported to
he 'spreading with fearlal rapidity in
th« neighborhood of Burclaysviile.
Two or three eases have also occur
red near Bunn’s Level.
We learn from the Charlotte papers
that two or tVee 'cases of this terrible
di-ease has ocCRrfl^io tho suburbs of
that town. The houses where it exists
are closely guarded, and it is hoped that
the spread of the disease will be pro
vented.
f'ayeftcville Fair.
Speaking of the Fair of Oumberland
county Agricultural Society, held in
Faycttcvilic last week, tho Lai/le of
Saturday says:
Really, we have had oiie of the most
pleasant and successful Fairs ever held
ill the State. Sumo 3,000 persons were
present on Thursday, and nearly the
same number yesterday The weather
has been delightful and everything
passed off pleaiantly. In stock we have
not had many fine specimens of horses,
;»s the people feared the horse disease.
In tact many people were afraid to cornu
from the country ou this account
Th5 best of order has been preserved,
and wo believe all visitors have been
well entertained. The Chief Marshal.
Capt A. B Williams, and his assistants
have done their duty admirably. Nev
er have we seen a more polite, gentleman
ly and efficient set ol managers.
The several officers of the Society,
too, displayed skill and good sense in
their several duties.
iVh can truthfully and unhesitatingly
say that we have never seen more pret
ty women crowded together than here
at our Fair this week. The address of
Col. A. A. McKoy, of Sampson, was
most appropriate, and a very eloquent
effort. Owing to tho late hour yester
day evening that we got the report of
it, we csiinot publish to-day. The ad
dress was listened .fo with marked at
tention. *
We shall call attention more at
length to many articlo.s. For instance,
to cotton and corn planter by John
Elliott, plow by William Botionis, beau
tiful embroidered garments for child by
.Miss Hattie Starr, sugar-cane by Joseph
Tliames. and uj^y other articles.
We learn o» 81,000 was received
at the gates, ^hcre were several races

see so niiiiiy^eoplo I’roui this'and all
the.adjoining counties.

Prof. Law, of Cornell, thinks that
the disease that afflicts our hoiscs is the
result of poisonous organic matter in
the atmosphere ; and says that for the
past few months butchers have had un
usual difficulty in preserving meats, and
hence there- must be a great growth of
fungi from ill prescrvecl meat. 'The
disease is an old one, and has been trac
ed back four hundred and fifteen years
before C' rist.^ It will be very pleasanC

The horse is a finely organized aiiiuiai;
the surface exposed to the air in his
lungs is about l.UHO square feet ; and.
since he is so often overworked and
badly housed, it is not strange that dis
eases affect him with peculiar severity.

A CiirlouN Alnrder Trial—Cool
ness of ilic Ci'imiiinl and Stu
pidity of the Judge.
Probably the most novel and original
termination ot proceedings against a
man for murder that is on rec. rd oc
curred in California last month, and
wa.s briefly mentioned in our telegraphic
news at the time. In 1870 a man ofthe
name of McLauclilin, usually called
'rim McLauchlin for shortnes.s, read in
a San Francisco publication ot ill-repute
a paragraph reflecting upon his wile.
Mci.aughiin lived in Sacramento, and
for some reason or other he took Ufion
himself to suppose that one Landholin,
also of Sacramento, had written the
objectionable article. It does not op
pear that he had any reasonable ground
for his suspicions, as Landliolui is do
scribed us a poiiccab'e, well-conducted
German, who pursued the avocation of
a barkeeper in a lager beer saloon, dis
pensing I he mild beverage which formed
Mie staple of'trade in tho establishment
where he gained his livelihood with
quietness and a careful attention to the
wants of lijp e^stomers. .
Such a penmn-would hardly be snp.
posed to be likely to seek reputation in
the field MoLaughlin ascribed to him.
But at any rate the latter chose to con
sider that Landholni wrote the para
graph, and be visited the place where
the man was epiployed and charged him
with the^^fiOlmrshrp. The imputation
was at oW-den'ied. Here the accounts
of the affair that have reached us be
come foggy; but the result of the in
terview was that Landholui was shot
dead by his visitor. It is not clear
whether he was shot because McLaugh
lin thought he wrote the scurrilous par
agraph, or because he had been guilty
if discourtesy in denying McLaughlin's
nssertiou that he had written it. But
he was shot, and it probably made little
difference to the unfortunate Land-
holm which was the precise reason for
his untimely taking off. McLaughljn
was arrested for murder, and after in
numerable legal proceedings, including
the non agreement of a jury in his case, j rep.
