Hi own married -a couple of some pecuniar' stand ing, for which he expected to receive, at least, some comiMinsuion. At the time ofthe marriage the license wis handed to him folded, with the names of the parties on the biick. The" wedding all passed over, and not aword said about any tee. The minister returned home with the sup ination that he had made another water haul. But, more than two weeks after, when the' attached certificate was to be filled the license Was opened -and a beau tiful V fouud inside. Mr. Browu is much obliged; aiid affirms that all such parties shall be furnished with a beautiful guilt marriage certificate. He would uot care to be surprised again. This was better fare than a certain Prosbvterian minister we wot of had for renderiug a similar service. He received his fee in the dark, just before mount ing his horse to go home. It was a coin, aud he dropped it into his pocket without knowing- its value. The bride : 5100m was a dressy,"Bplurging fellow, of - some considerable standing, and the par don had no doubt he had done a clever thing for him. His fingers touched the piece next morning and he hauled it out to inspect it, and tbunjl a iftlcer quarter. A Lotcer Class of Government Iionds. It is now. urged in financial circles that the government, iu order to secure a wide distribution of its bonds . in the hands of most thrifty citizens in all parts of the 'country, and as a measure of security for the people themselves, issue bonds bear ing four or five per. cent, interest, and of small denominations ranging from ,25 upward. This ijdea was oue of the most judicious features of Hie late message of Mr. Hayes. A" very large amount of bonds would soon be absorbed through this scheme, besides giving to a uumeroug class of citizens an interest in the stability ot the government hitherto unknown to them. Charlotte Observer. vtv von- much vo'Tct the attacks of The Greensboro Xew State upon Senator Merrimon. We were present in Raleigh, during the Senatoral struggle of 1872, and we know that no bargain wa3 made be tweeii the Republican members of the Legislature aud Judge Merrimon. There were leaders of the Republican party who preferred Gov. Vance, and used all their, influence to have the Republican vote cast for him. Republicans voted against Jov. Vance because they thought by so doing they could divide arid distract the Democratic party. They expected no other benefits than this. Therefore, we regret that Senator Merrimon should be de nounced as au ingrare when lie was elect ed without any effort on his part. So far as gratitude is concerned, we know that Senator Merrimon acknolwedges that he owes every man that voted for him for Senator, a debt of personal gratitude, which he is ready and auxious to discharge whenever a fit opportunity presents itself to do so. Senator Merrimon is -it part of North Carolina. . So far as his reputation and character as a public man representing hir State is concerned, that which tends to destroy standing as Senator, does au injury toJ the .State. While the beuator is not of onr political faith, we feel it our dnty to uphold him as far as we can, and thus enable him to lie of all service possi- li1 tit h St.itp. and neonle. A man 01 greater purity of character than Judge Merrifnon, has never represented North Carolina iu any public capacity. Being si self-made man. aud havinjr risen to Jiis present high position by his own exertions we should regret the occurence ot any thinir tpndinir to iinnair his usefulness as c? a man and Senator. It is not probable that the Republicai members of the next Legislature will be called upon to decide the contest for Sena tor. If there should he no chance of elect ing a Republican, It willJbe the impera tive duty of the Republican members to cast their, votes for the man who can be of the most service to the State without regard to party.

At the beginning ofthe present term ot the Supreme Court,- Miss Tabitha Aune Holton, of Jamestown, iu Guilford county, applied to be examined for licence at the same-time as the other applicants, but the Court declined to so examine until the point as to whether the law ofthe State woultT admit women to practice at the bar had been decided. Accordingly, yesterday morning was selected as the time for hearing the argument in the case. At the hour of 10 a. m., she made her appearance iu the Court room, accompan ied by Hon. A. W. Tourgee, her couusel, who began the argument of the case be fore the Judges. In the course of his speech, which lasted about an hour and a half, he took the following grounds in fa vor of permission of examination being "ranted: The Statute does not debar women from practicing the legal piofes- sion, as the "person" is used, nor is the sex anywhere specified. The Court had so extended the meaning of the word person" as to include colored people, when at the time the statute became a aw it was never contemplated that its provisions could or would be so construed. The word "person" is always used to designate persons appointed administrv tors or executors. The law .further Rays that any persons who may Invve obtained license to practice iu other States, shall, on producing such license, lie permitted to practice iu our courts, so a woman ad mitted into the profession in one of those States, would of course be received here ; we could not debar her. Five States ad mit females to practice by statute, three by construction of a law similar to ours, while in the District of Columbia and in nearly or perhaps all of the FederalCourts in the Northwest they have the same rights iu this respect as are accorded to men. At tbo Rnme. time of the enactment of the statute of this State 011 this subject, the Legislature never thought ot a wo man's making application for admission into the profession, but 111 the great pro gress of events woman's sphere has be tended that the sex is now represented in almost all the professions In the United States one woman is a presi dent of a bank, while two banks have lady cashiers. Many women have risen to eminence in the profession of medicine, and at this moment one of them is a mem ber of the Medical Society of this State Continuing his remarks he referred to the wife of Earl Russell, who, when that no bleman waa arraigned on a charge of trea son, prepared hi defence. Citing other instances of her ability to master the in tricacies ofthe law, be concluded by as sertiug that no man can give any reason why a woman cannot undertake any hon est work for her support. After this hearing of the case, the Court decided to permit the examination of the lady applicant, and this at one began. Her answers to all the questions pro lyl DAY, Jantakv, IS, 1878.

All who have not had a sample bottle are entitled to one for ten cents at Theo. F. Klultz's Drug store.
