The (pirstiou of interest on nioney is Mist now onjijrin much of the public jittention throughout the country. The press is almost unanimous in advocating )ic repeal of usury laws, ami demanding 11 free und unrestricted nionov market untramelled by statutory limitation or restraint. The State of Georgia. always the first of tins Southern States to catch the spirit of the times ami to adapt her policy to the demands of a more enlight ened and advanced state of society has already expunged from her statute book every vestige of a law which had its foundation in the ignorance of a former age, and drew its support from an unen lightened and unreasoning prejudice. Similar propositions are now pending be fore the Legislatures jjf Ohio, Virginia and North Carolina; but whatever may be the result hi the two former, a recent vote in the House of Representatives at Raleigh would seem to indicate that our Legislat ure is not yet prepared to follow the ex ample of the "Empire State of the ... A 3outh," and give to our people that re lief from an unnecessary, injurious and absurd law so generally demanded by the press of the State. "Wc say the law is unnecessary, because fhe matter will be much better regulated jf left to the general laws of trade, which fix with unerring accuracy the market yaluc of every commodity that enters jnto the commerce of the world. But this law is not only unnecessary, but can readily be shown to be actually injurious, and inimical to the interests of the House, and in the Senate, and we intend to let the people know who arc for the rings and monopolies and who are lor the people. T2:c E!cc!iM ,:iw. the people. It creates a fictitious scarcity of money by driving it to other markets where, in the absence of statutory limita tion, better prices can be obtained; and by locking it up in the hands of capital ists who arc not willing to lend at the legal rate, or by accepting a higher, to ex pose themselves to the penalty of the law prohibiting usury. It is demoralizing to public virtue, be cause it denounces and punishes as a crime that which is accepted by the com mon sense of mankind as founded in the immutable principles of right, It tempts to the evasion and violation of law by stepping out of the legitimate domain of statutory enactment and seeking to coun tervail the operation of a great funda mental principle of universal law; and en courages fraud by placing in the hands pf dishonest borrowers themeans of legal robbery. It is detrimental to the public interest a, because it enhances the price of money. As already shown, it creates a fictitious scarcity. Those who are unwilling to .operate- a defiance of the law, either hoard their capital or send it away to foreign markets. The bushiess is thus confined to a comparative few who arc wil ling to trust to their skill in evading the penalty of an unjust and unreasonable law. Enjoying a monopoly of the busi ness and operating in a market drained by artificial means of the commodity, and where tho demand is largely in excess of the means of supplying it, their enac tions are only limited by their own avarice, and the rate charged must be high enough to cover the risk involved in the violation of a penal statute, be sides returning them a legitimate and reasonable profit. The law is absurd, because it attempts jto effect an impossibility. It seeks to regulate by legal enactment that which is subject only to the general laws of trade, and essays to combat a fundamental prin ciple of universal law, Money, like every other commodity, will inevitably com mand its worth, without regard to the enactments of Legislatures or the decis ions of courts, and the attempt to affix Jy law a different value is quite as ridic ulous as the proposition once made to the Athenian Senate, that they should vote their asses horses. it is agreed that some rate is necessary to be fixed by law, to which reference may be had in the absence of a contract rate ' between the parties; but beyond this the law-making power has no right Jo interfere and no power to control. The price of money must be left free to adjust itself, and to be regulated, like that of other commodities, through the operation of those unwritten general laws which have their foundation in first prin ciples and are as fixed and immutable as the laws of nature. AVe trust our Legislature will give this In a lato issue of this paper wc de clared in favor of making the payment of pn'l tax a qualification of voters in this State. The llaleigh Xcics, in an editorial article, a few days ago, takes the same position, and urges upon the Legislature such an amendment of the election law as to require each voter to prodee at the ballot :hox his poll tax receipt before he is allowed to deposit his vote We know not whether the present constitution of the State will permit such a law. We arc inclined to thin! not. I Jut if it can be so framed as to go into operation without a violation of the constitution, we trust the Legislat ure will not hesitate to adopt such a me; sure. It is but just and right that they who pay the expenses of the government should control it; and such as contrib utcuoth'ing to the support of the govern ment should have no voice in shaping its course. It is enough for them that thev enjoy the protection of the laws at the ex pense of others, without aspiring to make the laws, or to direct, the manner of their administration. Again, the tax on the poll is a sort of debt of honor due by the citizen to the State. If he bo without pioperty its collection can not be enforced, and a refusal to pay it under these circum stances is the strongest possible declar ation of disloyalty to the government ; for if all the citizens should refuse to pay tax the qoverumcnt could not exist for a day. It is, at least, presumable that the citizen who is unwilling to con tribute to the support of the govern ment the small yearly pittance required of him as poll tax will not be very carc: ful to use the ballot for the public good The election law of Georgia has such a provision, and ifc works we!. The jrovernaicnt of that State is controlled by that class of citizens who are really interested in the public vr and groundless charge. Whether wo consider the interests of the public or of the offenders themselves lie present system of criminal justice eems to require modification of some sort : and some such regulation as we have indicated appears to us to be best calculated to brim' about the needed reform and to correct existing abuses. In this connection we would also call the attention of the Legislature to the necessity of some regulation in regard to the division of the time of our su perior courts between the criminal and civil dockets. Under existing laws there is no limitation as to the portion of the term that may be devoted to the trial of causes on the criminal docket, the only legal requirement being that the busi ness of the term shall commence with this docket. It thus frequently occurs that the whole of the two weeks allow ed for the term arc consumed before the civil docket is reached at all, though suitors and witnesses concerned in cases on this docket, as well as the other, are compelled to be in attendance from the first day of the term, ct a heavy expense to themselves. Thus it happens in ma ny counties from, term to term and from year to year ; business accumulates on the civil docket, costs mount up, wit nesses die or leave the county, and the ends of justice arc thwarted, private rights are unprotected, a contempt of law encouraged, and a want of confi dence in the power of our courts to protect the rights of citizens engender ed in the minds of our people. Our suggestion is this : Let a portion of each term, to be defined by law, b devoted exclusively to business on the criminal docket, and the remainder of the term to the trial of civil causes. Such an arrangement, it strikes us would greatly promote the convenience of the people and vastly diminish the costs of litigation. Opposed to that. A bill to be entitled "An Act for the Improvement of Agriculture" passed secoud reading in the Senate. This bill provides for the appointment of two com mittees to canvas nhe State and by pub lic addresses teach and induce the peo ple to adopt an improved system of ag-1 riculture, &c. Another s.cheme to pror vidc soft places for " scientific gentle men" who lt can not dig," and are " ashamed to beg." The " amnesty bill" providing for the pardon of offenses committed by the Ku Klux, Union League, &c. recently passed by the Senate, was received m the House and referred to the Judiciary Committee. By a vote of CI yeas to 31 nays the House adopted a resolution expelling from thej floor of the House one De Witter, late Greeley . nigger, and for a shoit time past reporter forthe Sen find. In ths Senate, C.ipt J. W.

Y e regard this as a measure of much importance, and hope the bill will be come a law. Under suspension of the rules, the resolution authoriaina: the State Treas urer to pay to Jas. McQueen, alias i)onahoe, th3 reward (SG.OOO) heretofore offered 1 fcfi State for the kill in ar of Bjss Strong, passed its several readings in the Senate. We learn by telegram from Mr. T. A.

Fcily ISZISiScsncsKOi'!. On Wednesday last the Kansas Leg islature met in joint session to vote for a United States Senator to succeed the loyal Potncroy, whose term expires on the lili oi March next, and who was the administration candidate for re-elec tion. Tending the ballot, Mr. York, a Senator arose in his place and charged that ho had been offered and had ac ccpted from Mr. Pouierov a bribe or f,ui)U; and producing a roll o batik bills from his pocket said : ''Her is tho $7,000 raid to me by Mr. Porno i"'"y, which I now desire to place in th hand:-: of the President of the joint con vcu adu. it -e .on. It is :edl- ess to say that the ulslration candidate failed of jctsm. In tin aftcrnooi Vof The Wilmington Journal, a few days ago suggested the formation of a Newsr paper Press Association m this State, and in a well-written and forcible edito rial article showed the imoicnse advant ages to be derived from such an organi zation. Most of our State exchanges that have since come to hand respond heartily to the suggestion of the Journal, and unite with that paper in urging the necessity of some combination 'among the newspaper publishers of the State to protect their inteiests and to promote the cause of journalism. We are strongly in favor of the proT posed Association, and will be happy to meet with our brethren of the State press for this purpose at any time and place that, may be deemed eligible and convenient. Supposing suggestions on this point to be now in order, we would name Raleigh as the place and the first Wednesday in May as the time. lip 4Jll AND A fire occurred in the town of J ack son, Tennessee, en the 1st inst., which destroyed proncrtv to tho amount of 100,000 in the business portion of the town.

New Counties. the The sessions of our Superior Courts are largely occupied with the trial of small offenses designated in law as petty mis demeanors, which usually result, upon conviction, in a judgment for "a penny and the costs." Case- of affray, assault and battery and other trivia1 offenses crowd our dockets and consume the time of our courts, often to the exclu sion of matters of grcafcr importance, and always to the great disadvantage of the tax-payers. A large inajorilyof these cases might be, and should be, disposed of in the township courts, and oueht not to ap- pear oa tne docket ot toe superior Court, except by appeal. The constitu tion, Art.

A Liil to incorporate the Old North State Insurance Company was introduced in the Senate by Mr. Morehead, and re ferred Bill to allow the Commissioners of Columbus county to levy a special tax passed its several readings in the House.

Let them lite;j tp the voice of the people as ut tered through almost the entire press cf the State iu favor of the repeal of thi:; law, and they must become coir, inced ,that, though the proposition looking to Jts rei eal was first introduced by a radi cal, it is no less '"in accord" with the views and wishes of the great mass of the intelligent people of the State. Bank ers and speculators will, of course, oppose tho repeal, but the great, honest, to ling, struggling masses who pay the taxes and supply our markets with bread arc unan imous in their ciemanl for a free and uu lpstricted money market. Wrc shall watch the votes of members fin this bill when it corn is up again i i where tne puiiisiiuient cannot exceed a fine of fifty dollars, or imprisonment h,r one month. Under this provision we think the Legislature has piwer, by appropri ate legislation, to relieve our superior cour.s of much of this petty annoyance and to greatly mitigate the cost to the tax-payers resulting from the present system. Let the laws be so framed as to require all such pet'y cases to be first heard and determined in the township court or before a Justiee of the Peace, and restraining graud juries from find ing bills m such cases. This would relieve the grand j uvie turn much need less and profitless labor, and give more time for the consideration of matters more worthy of their deliberation. It would, at the same time, give dignity and importance to the township courts, and greatly diminish the cost of admin istering tho criminal laws. It would also guarantee to the offender a speedy tria', and to the wrongfully accused a prompt vindication and release. Under the present system our jails are kepi full to overflowing of prisoners charged with petty misdemeanors, who, being unable to give bail, have," of ne cessity, to be confine 1, often for many months, and sometimes for years, at the expense of the tax-psyers of the couutv, while they await the slow-moving wheels of justice as dispensed through the supe rior courts. It thus often happens that the term of imprisonment sutf. red by tho accused while awaiting trial is man) times greater than the pen.dty annexed by law to the offense with which hestatfds charged and it not uufVeqnently occurs that after six months' impris onment he is wholly acquitted, the object of the prosecutor being a'rtady accomplished in procuring the arrest and protracted imprisonment ! of an objectionable person on a malicious -passed its House yeas OJ, appropriation of $115,000 third reading in the II nays -iG our members voting nay.
