Having agreed to take the office at ti fixed sum, the incum bent is properly protected against any change in his salary. The proposed re duction must therefore be made by the Legislature this winter as new incum bents will be elected before the next Leg islature aud then their salaries can not be touched for four years to come. The salary of the Governor, now bylaw! is $4000 per 'annnm and the use of a fur nished house. At present the Governor's mansion not being occupied by reason of its bad condition, tho Governor receives the rent therefrom. It is to be hoped however that a suitable mansion will at an early day be fitted up by .the State for our Governor to . occupy. Besides this the Governor is now allowed by law a Private Secretary, who gets $750 per an num, besides sundry fees and IkuP leave to employ an additional clerk at $600. The latter appropriation our present pop ular Governor uses only iu part, but the Legislation, it will be remembered,is not for him but an unknown successor. To sum up; the Chief Executive- for himself and his clerks is now entitled to $5,330 besides house rent, postage aud iuciden-, tal expenses of his office. Before the war Graham, Bragg, Keid, Ellis, and others received $3000 aud no clerk hire. Why then should there continue to be this in crease of $2,350 in oue office to be paid by a people not half as wealthy .a, we were in 1800 ! ATTORNEY GENERAL. The increased salary of this officer .is another of the exjense8 entailed on us by the Radical Constitution of 1363. Up to that date the Attorney General was paid a salary of $200 per annum, i. e., $100 for each term of the Supreme Court, aild the office combined with that of Solicitor of the Raleigh District. By the constitution of 1803 the office of Attorney General was more properly united with that of Re porter of the Supreme Court but unfor tunately while';, retaining )Ijis fcalaj-y ofa $200 aforesaid,'and fees, an additional salary of $1,500 was added so that at present the salary of the Attorney Gen eral is about $3,500, to, wit r? As Attorney Geueraljfe Allowance for attending Su preme Court, Fees allowed for State, As Reporter, a $100 200 300 1,500 $3,500 The duties of the Attorney General, aside from those of Repbrter,' are almost nominal. He is allowed to practice in all courts, from that of Justices v( thev' Peace up to the Supreme court'- of the ' United States. His duties, so. far from 'interfer ing 'witir' practice are a good advertise ment. WI13; thei tax-paycaW should con tinue to pay $3,500 for Attorney General when there are at least 100 competent lawyers in the. State . who would be glad to get the placo at $1,500 per annum (or certainly at the present Reporter's' salary plus tho old Attorney General's salary of $200 per annum) is a question; which this ."--t- '-?- . Alt.' f W General -Assembly must be prepared to answer. We have now tho anomaly of the Chief Justice and his associates, de barred from all practice at the bar, get ting $2,500 and their, Attorney General getting $3,500, with full liberty aud op portunity to practice. SECRETATTpr STATE. "v .1 , The emoluments of this office are gen erally estimated at 6,000 td$8,000 per annum.! Doubtless we could saup ay tli,ey are $6,000. As we pay 4he Chief Jtrstico only $2,500 we could probably get a good Secretary of State by giving-' )iim $2.500 1n lieu of all fees and salaries.

' ' ; r. .: ;'--!i The convention now about ended has been ouo of great interest. The large and influential body -of Christians which .'lias had its representatives with jus for 'four days past has had much wise legislation perfected in its behalf. The deliberations have been harmonious, the discussions have been temperate, aud many of the addresses have been marked by vigor aud ability. This dignified body has com prised among its members quite a! num ber of distinguished getitlemeu some of them eminent in their holy calling, others kuowu as sagacious meu in the councils of State. Tlie convention has beeu in all respects creditable' to the Baptist church of North Carolina; it Well sustains the reputation of that denomination for intel ligence, piety and zeal, and its labors last week must result in the spiritual iip-build- ing of the set the welfare of which it has so plainly shown it has close at' heart. Char. Observer. The Pricster Case-Tils'cliarge of the Young Ex-Cadet Priest er," "accompanied by liis father, attomey and witnesses, arrived in this city yesterday afternoon, from Liu- coin ton. Upon the arrival of the party at Shelby, Friday; Judge SchenclC "issued a writ of arrest .to the : sheriff of Cleve land county who at once took the young man in custody. At the same time Maj. W. W.

Tho witnesses were examined, tho testimony being the same as thai.ta ken before the coroner's inquest iu this city, ana the judge, sitting as a commit ting magistrate, considering the motive of self-defense fully made out, discharged the prisoner from custody. Char. Ob. RECAPTURED. "Last v week we 'mentioned the escape from the stockade of Henry Husky and Bill Kosi, two negro convicts. They were recaptured at the Cross Roads, in Burke county, by Mr. John Perry in a bold, brave aud somewhat novel manner. Mr. P. met them iu the road, and espied the well-known convict stripe beneath an old pair of pants on oue of the negroes. He discovered that Heury had a pistol (ths one stolen from the stockade when they left), which he proposed to buy. The negro offered it for $3, and Mr. P. took out the money to make the purchase, but before paying for it asked the privilege of examrniug it. J ue , negro nauueu it to him. He then stepped back and cocked itand ordered theuf to "stand," and with their owu pistol brought them to the stockade and delivered them to the au thorities. He was satisfactorily rewarded.

He did ' so, aud the sup loosed thief was carried before Justice Waring who after hearing the statements of the parties, told the uegro lie must go to jaiL Thereupon he made a fierce charge for the door, and it was necessary for four or lira persons to take hold of him to prevent his escaping.

The y'oung!man enter ed upon a career of dissipation, aud final ly last week appeared at the farmer's house in Ohio in the capacity of a regular tramp, begging for bread. The door, iu reply to his knock, was opened by his former lady-love, who recoguiziug him fell into his arms. A few moments later the old father made his appearance on the scene, and not liking the situation, fell H:foul of the young man and nearly beat him. to death, so severely, indeed, that his life is despaired of, and he is now ten derly nursed by the young lady in her father's house. In the meantime' the old man has become insane and ill, and his life is despaired of. Such, at least is the romantic story told by a Lebanon (Ohio) correspondent of the Cincinnati Commer cial.

Mr. Melke, of the firm of Melkc & Jones, merchants in Luinbertou, and -Mr. Mac kenzie, both brothers-in-law of Muss Link haw, the young lady who shot and killed Ed.

Messrs. Freuch and Norinent appeared for the defendants and Messrs. Iiol ami and the solicitor, W. S. Normeut, conduc ted the prosecution. The case was fully argued and at its conclusion, the judge ordered Melke to be discharged from cus tody, but Mackenzie was retained, aud will be tried at the next term of liobesou court. Ou the day before this trial, Miss Liuk- i liaw, who has recovered from her illuess, was confined iu jail iu Lumberton to aw ait trial. Char. Ob. Nevada has gone Radical. This makes a tie of the States, supposing Indiana votes with the Democrats, and Califor nia to hear from. It will certainly go Radical. The Baltimore Gazette is try ing to draw comfort after this sort : "There is every reason to believe that Daggett, the Republican elect in Nevada, obtained his seat throngh bribery and corruption. Sharon and Jones have mani pulated the State, aud Mr. Daggct repre sents, their money and not the State . of Nevada. The first duty of the next House should be to examine Mr. Daggett's bag gage, and if the taint of corruption is found clinging to his garments he should be promptly hurled from the bnttleuieuts of the Capitol into the stagnant moat known as tho old canal." ( We advise Democrats iu Congress to act with caution and do what is right and honest. They were rather swilt in seating Patterson from Colorado, and the election in October showed how little the people of that Shite relished it. Wil mington Star.
