there is s great rush to hurry thr ngb
bills.' Tath Douses loll two seeaioiis
daily; and the work of the Committees
bsving nearly eoncluded, tbe calendar
claims entire attention. During Jhe
past few days many bills of more or
leas importance have been enacted
into laws. 1 - , . - .
TsWrdsy there -ws omexeite
ment attending the introduction into
the Senate by Hn Bell, of Carteret,
of a bill prohibiting '
; TH1 CBANOS Ot OCAdl
by any railroad already incorporated.
and establishing a Btat gnage.' Thte
bill was intended to checkmate the r
cent decision of the Supreme Court
allowing the Bichmond and Danville
Railroad to change the gnage of the
North Carolina Railroad. The infor
mation here was that on Saturday a
very large foroe was employed in the
word of changing the gnage between
Greensboro and Charlotte, and by
working eight and day it would be
completed some time on Monday.
Tbe hsstewith which the biU was
passed seemed to indicate that there
was a race between the Legislature
aud the railroad, iu which, as I now
learn, the former was suooeesful, as
the work hsa not been finished until
t i-dy, even if it is now oomple eA. -
Tue act. was ratified b fo 9 o'ebk
lat evening. I do not know what
eUVct the legislation will hsve, but
suppose it will be a matter for the
n.mrU AnThow it will stop tbe
ehange of gusge at Greensboro, and
oouscqnentlxwill effectually cut the
North Carolina Usilrosd in two at that
point. This will still more exiiupnesw
tbo situati tin, but I believe il fin P
evou lnlter thus than to have the
guage changed to Goldsboro, for t'nn
the country from both ends ot tins
great Stute road would be drained into
Itiolimoud.
The speech of fli'intor H. 11 on this
subject was vt ry able. He in n ,sc
otunnlislifd ieaker. sud a iiiithful
aud onergutio publio servant. Mr,
Oaksniith, the rnpreeuativ .from
Citret was verv sctive aud ifiloient
iu getting the bill through the House.
It will be a matter of great inttMNwl to
see what will result from the pAssnge
of the bill.
The question of greatest interest
now is wnrtuer me House win puss

ludeed this eugroswes the attention
of all. A very few Democrats yet
bold out in oppositiou to the meuure,
aud as there ar only eighty two in the
House, counting one or two Imlepeud
euts, who have soted eutiroly with the
party, throe or lour Democrats oan
defeat the bill, unless some Itepubli
oans vote for it. ' s . v
" An iutcreptfng question has sprung
up as to the number of votes required
to nsss the bill iu the IIouso. Air.
Btllard, of Gate, huving disd, and
Mr. Thorne, of Warren, having been
expelled, there are really only one
hundred and eighteen members of the
House. The Constitution declares
that uo Convention of the people shall
be called by the General Assembly
unless by the concurrence of two-
thirds of all the members of each
House of the General Assembly. It
may be of : tooustquenoe whether it
takes a' venty-mne or eighty votes to
pass the bill. ''TTAV
TUB CHANCES OP JPAHSINO TtlB Bltiti
are very nnoettain. Hovout,y-flve or
seventy-six member are kuowu to
favor it. This leaves seven or eight
Democrats doubtful or openly opposed.
My own opinion is that unless one or
two friends of the measure are absent
it will pas. I do not believe that
a few men, and some of them a good
and faithful representative as constit
uency ever had, will take upon them'
selves th fearful responsibility of de
testing the almost unanimous wishes
of the party; nor do I believe that the
Conservative ; people of any oonuty
would justify their representative in
suoh a course, however much they
msy be opposed to the policy of hold
ing a Convention. Whether it be good ,
or bad policy to -call a Convention, it
will certainly be very bad policy for
a few men to unite with Republicans
to defeat their own party in a measure
of such great State importance. '
to one, unless he has visited the
Capital, oau form any idea of thefaitlv
ful labors of the friends of Convention
in both Houses. It is probably ,oo
soon to speak of the representatives,
for the result of their labors is yet to
be seen. But in the Senate the good
work has brought fourth its legitimate
fruit, and so fares that body is con
cerned, the Convention has been enlled

the schftol days of many more of them
. ' ... . , ,
Were over loug ago. The first missed
word waa "aco immodute"- it brought
down three victims. The intellectual
strife went on until there were only
(our loft- two young ladies, a man,
ud a small boy. "Ammonia" eent
the littlo fellow to j grass; "tarlatan
very naturally upset the mart, 'and hue
of theyonoflad.es spelled "sillsbub''
with a "y, aud the other fair intestant
took the prize a copy of Webster's
uuabridged. " j
Cincinnati early succumbed to the
geutle movement, and atareoentpublio
match the wisdom and beauty of the
city were gathered, not only as specta
tors but as participants. The two osp-
tuius, gorgeously arrayed in , button -hole
boqUcts, earth led nineteen cham
pion spellers. The words were iugen-
luunij (jruupeu lor uie purpurieiii uiin-
leuding the victim by similar pronun
ciations of syllables. For instauoe,
I'inoaulate'l with one V would be
followed by "innocuous," with two,
eto. After a learned judge had fallen
in trying to spell "millennial," only
one was left on either side a married
and a single lady. The book were
ransacked for difllcnlt words, but there
was no hesitation, no mistake on the
part of either and the struggle ended
in a draw. . The two ladies were ap
pointed captain of the text match,
whioh ia awaited with great interest
by the people of the Queen city.
As the matches spread from city to
city in the west, increasing at every
point iu size and interest, thy be
come known as spelling tournaments,
whioh is the popular term just now.
They create no end of amusement and
pleasant gossip. 1 A prominent editor
in Indianapolis spelled tft word
"osier," with a "a" and the papers
are full of similar blunders by leading
m n iu the matohes. St. Louis is now
planning one iu which forty of her
most prominent men are entered. The
mayor, the British consul,- and several
of her ex-governors and senators are
in this spelling-book contest, , .
All these matches are couduoted for
charitable purpose. - While a deal of
harmless and mirthful sport is evoked,
the spell of words is made to bring a
spell of happiness to the suffering
poor. In some of them a person who
misess can try agaiu by paying a fine
ot twenty -five cents, which is imme
diately collected by ladies. The cap
tains, umpire and ennuoiators are
chosen by the audience, Louisville
and.Knoxville propose to utilize the
new popularity; aud we suggest that
our leading ladies and gentlemen
seize the opportunity to give our own
useful Benevolent Association a royal
lift. Fnn and charity, would be blend
ed in the novel entertainment. ' '
