Bailey, woo has been ill for a long time at his residence in this city, is considered ai desperately sick, ard his friends and family are very much alarmed as to ' the final result. Wo are glad to hear that Mr. Geo, Z. French, whoso serious illness at his plan tation at Rocky Poict was reported by us yesterday.has been pronounced belter an 1 his condition is now considered favorable. A Good Beginning. We learn that some of the members of come interested in the establishment of regular religious exercises and instruction at a place about vj miles from Magnolia ia Duplin county. R.v. Dr. Patterson has visited that bectija and preached on one or two occasions, much to the edifica' Uon and satisfaction of the people. On Sun("J,ast a Sunday School with' between fifty and sixty runils was orcauized at which reluioua iastructioa will be regu laincd ever Sunday. It was organized mair.ly thtvugh the efforts of Mr. Jvhn AltxaLder, a venerable member of the chun.li alluded tc. We learn from him that Mr. Joseph Graves, who lives in the vicinity indicated, has donated two acres of land fur church purposes and has fciven the neceisarytimbe? foj the build iog, and that other neighbors and friends have subscribed dfiite liberally towaid3 A. , r.w v i j " the completion cf the church edifice.

It is perfectly evident that there is a good deal of business dona in this vicini ty from the fact that the different raiU roads leading to this city are doing an immense freighting business. We learn from Capt. Knight, Master of Traospor tition for the W. & WI and VV. O & A. Riilroads.that both lines are transporting very heavy freight trains every day. The Commercial League. Gen. M. P.

We are haDDV to learn that the most friendly relations continue to exist between the above named gentleman and his con gregation. About New Year's w Irean that Henry Brunhild, Esq , on behalf of a committee, presented Dr. Mendelsohn with a well-filled Durse as a token of m their appreciation and as a New Tea gift. Another and stronger, evidence of their regard was manifested on Sunday evening last when a meeting was held by .the congregation for the purpose of elect l lg a minister for the ensuing year. They deviated from their usual rule and unanimously elected Dr. Mendelsohn for two years as Minister of the Temple of Israel, which was, perhaps, the greatest compliment and most marked evidence of their appreciation of his services which could be shown. A committee was ap pointed to notify the teverend gentleman of his election and it is to be hoped that he will accept j The Rain storm. , For the first time in many months this city and section have beeu visited with a copious rainfall. It began raining on Sunday about noon but it did not put in very "big licks until late yesterday afternoon when it began to fall in earnest It continued throughout the night ana has rained somewhat to-day. The entire amount which has fallen, up to noon of to-day, foots up 2.78 inches The indications are that it haa extended all over this Bection and into the interior of the State, in which case there will be a glorious freshet in the r.iver within a few days. It will also serve, to bring down timber and turpentine to this market aad in that way help us all to feel better. ; The Bteamers which left Fayetteville yesterday morning report that there was no rain there at that time but that it was threatening very seriously. - Nob very far tils side of Fayetteville they entered the rain clouds and Capts. Robeson and Worth are of the opinion that the clouds passed on well into the interior. In this city the rain was most oppor tune, as some of the cisterns and wells had begun to fail. Cotton Purchases. State Treasurer Worth has recently decided, in answer to certain questions concerning the tax on cotton, that cotton bought by merchants is included in goods, wares or merchandise, of .wba'ever name or description, and merchants are re quired to list cotton so bought as pur chases during the preceding six months. As to the cotton that may be taken in settlement of accounts contracted dur ing the growing of the crop, or in pay ment for advances made for the cultiva tion ef the same, the treasurer says that this may 'Involve cash payments and barter trades. Cotton taken in sett'e ment of accounts constitutes a barter racsiotion, and Is not taxable. Cotton aken on account of actual cash advances on the crop is taxed on purchases. Cot-. ton taken in payment for guano (on which a State tax is paid) constitutes a barter transaction, he says, and, as such is not taxable. These questions must come up daily in transactions in this section o! the State, and it is important that the distinctions made should be noted. - A Treatise on the Hair, published by R. P.

A white man whose name we sup - press, was arraigned benre Justice Ownnr this morning upon the charge of f iru f-rtaenced, bui he cussd and swore t" such n extent, threatening the Justice with such vengeance dire, that the Court (v t constrained to commit him to jail for c iithjt for uue day, and to postpone! tbe trul of the case until a more cenven- ii ut pi riod. It is said that the defendant showeo evident signs of baring taken on several scruples of whiskey, thereforet while such conduct before a Court dign - tary is nigniy reprehensible, it cannot be said that the party was altogether un scrupulous.
