C, State Bonds took place week before last at the capitol in Raleigh. It was private or at least only those holding bonds were ad mitted to tne conterence. The ReDOrt of the Chairman of th Com- mittee will be found below : Pursuant to the joint resolution of the two Houses of the General Assembly, the "Joint Select Committee on the State Debt and Liabilities." met in the Senate Chamber at 12 M ., no the 14th of January, inst.. to con fer with the creditors of the State, and re mained in session during that and the two days following. Daring this bine, gentlemen were present from New York, Virginia and North Caro lina, representing in the aggregate about two millions of the "old" and "funded in terest' bonds, with less amount of "new" and "special tax" bonds. Numerous let ters, addressed to the Governor, the Chair man aud members of the Committee, from persons in various sections of the country owners of different classes of bonds of this State, were read and considered. Several propositions were made by bond holders looking to a settlement of the State Debt. Those from North Carolina very generally said that they had entire confidence r a J a i . . 1 . in tne juugmeut anu iairness oi tne legis lature and would accept such terms as it might propose. One of the Virginia gen tlemen expressed his willingness to accept any terms of settlement which might be offered by this General Assembly. The other Virgiuia creditors present, represent ing over half a million of dollars of the "old" bonds, aud professing to be able to influence a very large amount of the entire debt, proposed to surrender the "old" bonds and the "funded interest" bonds with the accumulated interest on them, and take in lien thereof a new bond for the face of the others, bearing 4 per cent, interest for years and then 6 per cent, for the remainder of the term. The chief representative, for the New York interest proposed that the ''old' bonds, "funded interest" bonds and the acquired interest on the same, be taken up with a new bond at nfty cents in the dollar That the "new' bonds, .not "special tax,' be taken at thirty cents in a like bond, and that the ''special tax" be discharged by the same new bond at fifteen cents in the dollar. He said, however, that he did not believe the State was morally bound to pay any portion of these "special tax" bouds. but that iu order tit get rid of them would advise such compromise as suggested. Separate propositions were made in regard to the settlement of the "construction" bonds. One holder of half million of these THE ONLt REBEL. The Hon. B ft.

It has been: a commonly received op inion among the people and, to a large extent, among the lawyers, that where a corporation as a city, county .or town was sued by its creditors, and judgments ob tained, on debts to be discharged by tax ation, that thb Federal Court had the power, after exhausting the force of a writ ot mandamus, to send tne United States Marshal, with the tax list and force the people to pay the tax to him, in Taking A Cold. This is the season for t. iking cold, first afew snipping cold days, then a long spell ot damp, foggy weather, so mild that winter garments feel oppressive, and yet one does not dare to take them off. Wheu some unfortunate sits with throb bing brow, stuffed head, sore throat, and a vexatious little cough, when alternate chills and fever fits run over his whole other words, where there was no sheriff bony and he feIs 'mo miserable," if . - I .

And we arte infoimed that in one in- m . t stance where tne ocmmissionera oi a county, and the Sheriff resigned, to avoid the collection of taxes, to pay the coun ty's bonds that Judge Bond did order the Marshal to collect the tax, and pay it into Court.

Not long ago we read somewhere an article on "llow A writer in the National Live Stock J our anal gives his idea on this subject : Sheep pay better than any other stoek, no matter what the kiud of stock is, I have been feeding some 300 bead of cat tle, and I am satisfied that, even with the most favorable condition for selling, when the time comes, I shall make a great deal more money, dollar for dollar, on the money invested in sheep than I shall make ou the capital invested in cat' 1c. I have 600 sheep, running without any particular attention or care, und have sold St. 400 worth of wool this year s cliu and have 2.00 lamb b .-sides. I do not think it posible to have done so well on an equal amount of capital invented in ca'tle.' Oue great advantage cheep have over other stock is, they never die of the contagious diseases whii-h they contract. They get the scab or foot-rot or something else, and if unchecked it get them in bad condition, and would ultima tely, perhaps, kill them. But the very woiot contagious disease to which sheep are subject, give the owner ample time to treat the affected animals, and tbe dis eases are generally of a character which yield readily to treatment. But a man may have a lot of hogs, and feed them lrindreds of bushels of corn daily, and about the time the bottoms ot his cribs are neared and he is thinking of selling, some disease breaks out among them no one knows what it is or what to do for it one animal after another following in rapid succession is affected, and the great er portion die. 1 have knowu farmers to be well-nigh ruined by the appearance of contagious disease ot this character. Sbeep are happily exempt Irom such rapid and fearful mortality. B -sides wheu a sheep dies and they will die sometimes his pelt is sufficient to pay for his keep from the last shearing to his death. It makes no difference when he dies, or what kills him. the sheep never dies in debt. I ! I !. It i.xr i I ffm mtA tl.a unu f U - - l.-l 1 .

In com menting on the failure of a newspaper manager, the St. Lauis Globe tells a plain truth in the following words: Tbe busi ness of journalism will continue to be an inviting field for experiments to those who have a large amount of egotism. A man who, having edited a newspaper Qutil be was forty, should suddenly announce him self a lawyer, would be regarded as a fool by tbe legal profession ; and yet we often hear of lawyers of forty making sudden pretensions to journalism. There is an idea that tbe basines of editing requires no appreutitefhip : that editors er come forth Irom law offices and colleges fully armed for the profession, like Pallas from tbe brow of Jove. It is a mistake ; there is not in America to-day, a single journalist of national reputation, who has not devoted more time and more hard work to his profession than, with equal fitnes snd application, would have made him a good lawyer or a good doctor. And yet ninety oat of a hundred men yon meet on the street will hesitate about carrying a hod or making a pair of shoes; whereas, there will probably not be one in the hundred, whs can't according to bis own judgement, edit any newspaper ia tbe country better than it is edited, no 1 matter bow or by whom.
