1 Carolina Watchman1 JANUARY 28 The Supreme Court has decided the pending ease against Mclver, and in la ear of the Trustees appointed by the last Legislature. Mr. D. Fleming, of Spartanburg, B. C. wns instantly killed Tuesday, by a falling Fall, while standing in front of hid store. " Col. Adrmfiel, Speaker of the Senate, and J. L. Robinson, speaker of the House. have been appointed Vice President" of the N. G. Agricultural Society, Andrew Johnson, the great vetoiet, baa been elected U. S. Senator from Tean. He will be apt to make a flatter iu the United States Senate. General iumsides and Fen ten Ran dolph are elected U. S. Senators from Rhode Island and New Jersey respec tlrely. Col Jas. M. Hioton, of this Slate, but who has been residing in Norfolk the lost few years, died in Norfolk a few days HO. 9ffe 0' . The people of Alexander Co., have in structed their representatives to vote for Convention. Two negro thieves, Bill Davis and Bam Nelson, were arrested and committed to jail in Cii allot to a few days ago. They had robbed a jewelry store in Spartan burg. And the Observer thinks they nave been connected with other robberies in that section. USURY. 8everal bills are now before the Legis lature pioposing to fix the rate of interest on money. We think Mr. Pinnix's, o Davidson, the best we have seen, bu think that all forfeitures for violations the law shopld go to the State or county, and not to "any person who will sue for the same.'! This countenances and en courages espionage. Hon. J. W. Holden, Mayor of Raleie. died pf dropsy at the residence of his father, Gov. Holden, on the 20 inst. He Was speaker o'. Ms Honse of Representa tives In 1868. At different times he was connected with the press of the Stato and bowed much talent as a writer. He was a fine speaker and possessed many notlc qualities. He waa elected Mayor of Raleigh by the Rads in May, 1874. Let hit faults pass into the grave. CLOUD JUDGE. The State Supreme Court has decided, all the Judges concurring, that Cloud, add not Wilson, is Judge. The same Court says that Moore, and not Hilliard, it Judge in the 2nd District. A State constitution that does not clear ly define who is J udge is not entitled to the respect of the people. And is it not surprising that the Legislature, yet hesi tates to remodel the instrument that no body seems to understand, but which op presses every body, n the name of Heaven why dont the members send on and ask Grant whether they may call a Convention. If he says not, let them all adjourn, go home, and confess themselves lyea. THE LEGISLATURE. I Thb body is still holding on. Jt has perfected little wark of importance yet. We think a bill will be passed, submit. ting the question of fence or no fence to the citizens of Rowan. Also a law fixing the rate of interest at 0 or 8 percent; and a law for the better government of cities and towns. Tho old dog law will proba bly be adobted, allowing each family one dog. This it is said, is the best that conld be- done. And we think and hope that a Convention will yet be called. We were in Raleigh a few days ago, and we were somewhat favorably impress ed by the Legislature. If it is not as able as some previous bodies, we believe it to be honest and incorruptible. We were glad to see that our members were not only attentive tp their duties, always on hand, but quite popuhr and influential. The Editor of the Statesvile Land ptark makes a despetate effort to be witty in the last number of that paper, and we art sorry that we are unable to appreciate it is we no doubt should. He writes a pretty good editorial when be ceases to be facaetious. But be don't seem to under stand this. He has three or four little squibs in bis last paper which are directed at as, and which he probably expected would be regarded as pointed and spright ly, bat the stateness of the bread which has lain hurried for centuries beneath the a&bes that covered the ancient cities of Hereulaaeum and Pompeii, becomes fresh and pungent beside these squibs of the Landmark. The editor has been throw jog his dull puns and pointless para graphs in tbe face of the public so long with impunity, that lie has come to ima giue that there is really more in tbem than bad taste and bad logic. His readers np doubt think thera all right, and we there fore hope that the Landmark will not pro voke uc to expose them further. t&- Grant cent a menage iu Qougnt? a few days ego, asking th;it Lody to pnt the coast defence in a condition for war. Does it njean any thing? Is Grant desirous of plunging the country into a foreign war to divert attention from his prime atrsinsl the constitution of his country ? "Or to blind those who believe im to be plotting to obtain dictatorial powers 1 If war is thns forced upon the country, we are for letting Grant and his pets do the fighting. So far as the South is concerned, 't ought never to go into any war, so long as there is any interfer ence by the Federal Government with the Southern States ep long as any State is trampled on as Louisiana is. The South is either a part of the Federal Government or it is uot. It a part, then southern States have the right to claim the poor privilege of self government without the interference of Federal power. If the South is the mere province of the Fedeial Government and subject to the surveil lance and arbitrary eontrol and laws of that government only, then, it is time her people kuew the fact that, they may shape tbeir destinies accordingly. CONVENTION. Wo invite special attention to an article in this payer from the Wilmington Jour nal. We think the view there taken is the correct one, and we are unable to un- atand what show of excuse the Legislature can now make for longer delaying to call a Convention. The party -has spoken, and the people, for the hundredth time, through the State Executive Committee, have declared in favor of a Convention. Lhe Executive Committee is as much of a representative body as the Legislature, and is as capable of expressing the wishes of the people, The gentlemen composing the Committee came from all parts of the State, fresh -from the people, and after due consideration and with remarkable unanimity passed a resolution, asking the Legislature to call a Convention. Will the Legislature heed tbe voice of the Dem ocratic-Conservvtivc party and the wishes of the people 1 Or are these to be disre garded and spit upon in obedience to i few timid and obstinate members of the Legislature? For. decency's sake let us hate a Convention, or let tbe Legislature pass a resolution why jt is not called. Everybody now knows thaj; the reason given by those who oppose it is simply timidity, fear of Grant, but we want it spread on tbe State records as a part the proceedings of the Legislature, if this appeal tp onr (ears is really to prevail. It will teach our children caution, make them respect our Legislators, and venerate the glorious government established by our fathers. Wendell Phillips writes a long letter to the Boston Advertiser protesting against tbe passage of any "civil rights" bill that does not insist upon mixed schools, lie says the Southern whites will npt destroy their common school system if such a bill is passed, calls their remonstrances "bul lying bluster' and gives as a reason why they con'j do it, that they haven't the power. "Six or seven thousand negro voters are not easily thwarted' he adds. All of which proves that Wendell is Ptill tbe same old ass he always was. Let him pass such a bill, and see whether or not we have the power Wilmington Jour nal. How men that are afraid to call a Con vention in a regular, constitutional and orderly manner, lest Grant and Sheridan will interfere, would raise no objection to mixed schools. They would be afraid to do so ; for Grant would be more likely to. interfere in the latter ca&e than iu the former. They would say let us have mixed schools, for if we don't "the lives of our women and children, onr liberties, aud our all will be imperiled." Such was the language of a late speaker, against Con veution. fcet us all say grace to Grant and proceed to eat dirt. Important Matter. The Grand Jury has fouud 2,200 in dictment in the county against parties for failing to enlist their poll taxes, 1,400 of these indictments are confined to Ral eigh towuship. It is stated upon author ity that all parties paying their taxes to J. P. Haywood, Tax Collector, before the expiration .of his time for settling with the County 1 reasnrer, will have their indie ments withdrawn by the Solicitor.- Uakigh Netcs. . We learn that the Courts have decided that any one liable to pay a poll tax and who fails to list the same with the proper officers, is subject to indictment. AuoogiiciHirw me itaieign Uistnct informs us that the revenue of. Wake county will be iucreased 820.000 at least. tbis year, by tbe decision that alreadv about a thousand persons have come for ward and paid who would not do so here tofore. We call the attention of our Solicitor, Mr. Montgomery, to this matter. Many white people, aud nearly all the colored people in tbis section have failed to pay a poll tax. or list themselves for it. They are all liable to indictment. Charlotte JJomocrat. We understand that many whites and nearly all the colored of this section have both failed to list and to pay j that they nave been returned, nou "collectable, for years past. There is no excuse for this and hereafter, we hope to see the law en forced. The resolution as adopted read as fel low ; j Resolrrd by the Senate, the II oust of Representatives concurring, That thenres- ent Constitntion is unsuited to the want of the people of the State, is check upon their energy aud impedes their welfare and that the people demand that the bur dens contained in the' same shall bo re-. moved from their shoulders. Resolved J urther, that we, the Qeneral Assembly, will relievo thera of these checks to their welfare, prosperity and happines", at the soonest practicable mo meet hy one or tite other of tlte moaes provided in the Constitution. The above we extract from the Legis atjve proceedings of last Saturday. 39 Senators voted for, and 9 against these resolutions. Here then we have the al most unanimous declaration of the Senate that tbe Constitution is unsuited to tbe wants of onr people ; that it is a check upon their energy and impedes tbeir weK fare ; and yet this same body is hesitating a brut calling a Convention to change this unsuited and oppressive instrument. A resolution is passed renewing the promise already worn thread bare, that tlte General Assembly will relieve the people of this constitution Well, if the members intend to make good this promise, let them pro ceed without delay to call a - Convention for the purpose ; for this is the only way they can relieve the people. By this means thev can complete the work of remodeling the Constitution or insure its completion ; but in no other way. The man is simply rtupid who imagines that the necessary amendments to tbe Consti tution can be obtained by the Legislative mode, without entailing upon the people dooble what a Convention wonld cost. When it 19 understood that every amend ment will require a separate bill, the trouble and great expense of remodeling tbe Constitution by the legislative mode will occur to every intelligent reader Then there is no certainty that any amend ments the present Legislature may pro pose will be adopted by tbe next, or' ap proved by the people. If the Legislature intends to do anything for the relief of the people, it must call a Convention. 1 here U no certainty in any thing else. The above resolutions wero passed in the House, on Tuesday last, hy a vote of 75 tor, to 25 against. KIRK'S LAMBS REDIVi VI. We made some editorial allusion on yes terday, says the Petersburg (Va.) Index, to the meeting of Methodist ministers (of Uie rnoriuem uuurcii, ol coarse) held at Boston, Monday, by which resolutions were adopted endorsing Grant and Sheri dan iu Louisiana. Since those comments were made we have received from some unknown friend a marked cony of the Boston Herald, which contains a fnll re port of the pious exercises of that occa sion. As matter nf singular, though melancholy and morbid interest, we copy tne following extract from the Herald We refrain from all remarks ou the occa sion ; there is no language at our com mand that rises to the dignity of the theme, or that conld do it justice : Pom the Boston Herald Jan. 10. At the regular weekly meeting of the Methodist preachers of Boston and vicmi ty, held at Wesleyan Hull this forenoon .1. i n . -r me iecem aimcuuies in .Louisiana were discussed at considerable length. Bishop Bowman gave an account of what be knew about the treatment of colored peo- 5 T ! . a pie in Louisiana, narrating a number instances in which they bad been shame 1 1 I J 5 1 " iinty aoufea ana aepnvea ot me even By invitation Rev. R. L. Ives, of New lork, addressed the meeting and bis speech was of the Radical kind. He d clared there is altogether too much toad v i&m on tne nart ot .Northern neon e in their treatment of the South. lie said we are undertaking now to coax the devil out of the miserable whelp down doutn, wnen nothing but strychnine and cannon naght to be used. He rather agreed with Phil Sheridan's declaration during the war, "that if he had owned hell and lexas he would leaa out Texns aud live in the other place.'' Mr. Eves administered a casticration tn the chnrpJi declaring that there is not a paper in the Methodist church that dares discuss tin civil rights bill, and usk that it be enforc I U - 3 1" 1 .1 eu. jae eam no oeuevea the mnnMt rascals in the South are in the Methodist church South. He declared himself Radical of the strongest kind, and be said he believed tbe more he l.a ed the rebels of the South the more he loved God. He declared he believed that the spirit now rampant in the South has got to be crushed out by another war. and he long ed for the appearance of some colored man able to become a leader among bis peopie, wieioing tne sword and torch. lie said the bishops ought to come out publicly and declare the w bole tiuth about be treatment of tho colored people in tbe outu, Dot he didn t believe they would. If i hey did, he knew they couldn't return to the South, for if they did they would be hung ; but he intimated that it was no worse to hang a bishop than a minuter, out he suggested if it was done it might wake up the people quicker than an v rhino- else. He thought the bishops were inn ten der hearted and they reminded of the him man who wanted to cut off his do'a tail hut he was too tender hearted to ent it off where it ought to be, so cut off an inch at a time, 1 he speech of Mr. Ives was rer ceived with frequent demonstrations of approval ; some of his most Radical ut terance exciting considerable applause.

It is still more un reasonable to suppose that eminent physicians would corroborate the evidence thii given uti le tbey were persuaded of it troth. The proprietors of listener's Stomach Bitters ore constantly in tbe receipt of voluntary testimon ials acknowledging the curative and preventive potency of his benficent tonic and corrective, emanating not only from those who bare fell its influence, bat also from well known mem bers of the medical profession both here and abroad, who have witnessed Its effects, and prescribed it in their private practu. In the face of such evidence as this, to which the wid est publicity has repeatedly been given, it would be absurd to question the medicinal vir tues of the Bitters. Skepticism upon this point was lung ago disarmed, and tbey are to-day as much respected and far more widely known than many of the official remedies which figure conspicuously in tbe pharmacopeia. Tbey are universally recognised to be the supreme remedy for Intermittent and remittent fevers, dyspepsia, liver complaint, general de bility, disorders of the bowls and nervousness, as well as a means fortifying the system against I malarious influences and those which operate njuriously upon tbe sensitive organs.
