A. II. Galloway, colored, presented a

irrespective of parlies, urging the repeal
of aa act, establishing a special Court in
tho city of Wilmington, and moved its
rofv'renco to the Committee on the Judici

i'otmed by one of the Committee that the
Jurfga of eaid Court (Cantweli) had noti
fied them that ho desired to go before the
Cobainitteo in order to make an explana

that these propositions for 1 50 and
50 ends were cilered in jest and ridicule, he
was opposed to such picayune motion?, and
oppo-jed to the original proposition. !
Mr. Cook said he offered the amendment j
ment in good faith, he knew tho object of j
Senator liom Rowan was to make capital!
for tha Democratic party, and ho thought j
this party should bo allowed the same i
privilege.
Mr. Rabbin-; taid he supposed when!

were made, it was done with the spirit
and intention es suggested by tho remarks
of the Senator from Johns-ton. He intro
duced the resolution in good faith, and
was willing and ready to stand by it, the
reflection that ho had introduced it to
mako capital was all gammon, he was the
representative of thouand3, and did not
stand on the floor of the Senate simply to
represent his own views or wishes, but
those of his constituents, and no Senator
had tho right to do otherwise, ho felt it to
bo his duty to express the views of his
people in introducing tho resolution, and
those were the figures which ho under
stood suited them. Ho did not agree
with tho Senator from Wayne, who
thought $4 too little. He (Mr. R.) was as
poor as any Senator on the iloor, $4 would
meet all necessary expenses incurred while
hture in the discharge of his duties as Sen
ator, and when asking his fellow citizens
lor their suffrages to represent them in
tho Senate, ho did not expect to make
money by it, and only desired a fair com
pensation. Resolution indefinitely post
poned. Eill authorizing the State Treasurer to
pay the officers and members of the Gen
eral Assembly per diem and mileage came
up.
A. II. Galloway, colored, offered a sub

HOUSE OF BEPBESENTATIVE3.
Monday, Nov. 22.
special order.
The resolution of Mr. Seymour, in re
gard to maintaining the State's credit,
pledging tho Stato to pay her publio debt,
the question being on tho amendment of
Mr. Malone, to insert "legally incurreu
and honestly disposed of, as tho bonded
debt."
Mr. French asked an explanation of the
amendment ; said tho inferenco w.-s thai
part had been illegally and dishonestly
disposed of.
Mr. Malone tuud the oi ject uis to avoid
pledging tho faith of tho State to every
single act creating indebtedness, pecause
it appears rajular. Acts giving men con
trol of $12,000,000 may be regular, yet the
bonds may be disposed of to parties who
have fall notice of tho fraud. If on agent
transcends his authority, the principal is
not liable. If a man, passing through the
country, offers a horse worth 200 for $25,
it is evidence of something wrong that
the horse was probably not tho property
of the seller. So, if a man proposes to
sell $G,000,000 of North Carolina bonds for
35 to 39 cents on the dollar, it ia almost
positive evidence of bad faith. Col. John
son very properly refused to put his bonds
on the market ; but others have placed
millions of bonds on the market, yet,
strange to say, very little of the roads have
been built, and the contractors complain
of having no money. Why is this ? Shall
wo see this ruinous sacrifice of tho State ?
Shall we stand by and allow this huge
speculation, and when called upon, vote a
resolution eudorsiug the same '? It is
monstrous to contemplate ! If this be the
policy, wo are ruined ! ruined !
Mr. Sinclair opposed tho amendment; it
wonld intimate that the Legislature had
made dishonest appropria lions and pre
judge matters on this subject to go before
Committees.
Mr. Seymour hoped the amendment
would be withdrawn and tho vote taken on
tho main question.
Mr. Mulono aaid this amendment in
volved the question whether the people
should be protected from the infamous
swindles of the "Hicg." There was no
party movement in it; it was merely a
measure to protect the State, and all men
who wished the Stata's appropriations to
Railroads honestly and judiciously spent,
could support it regardless of party.
Vest and Harris, of Wake, opposed tho
amendment.
Mr. French thought if there were grounds
of suspicion that bonds had been dishon
estly disposed of, it was the duty of the
House to examine into the matter, and not
put this amendment in this resolution, j
which was intended to prop the credit of
the State.
!Tr. Ar'o thnnrrht tho nrnr'oer! i no-s on
, i i '
pone for one month.that Committors might J
have time to leport on matters connected j
wdh it. j
On his motion tho yeas and nays were i
ordered and resulted, yeas 54, navs 41. j
Mr. Seymour moved to reconsider tho :
vote ju-t taken. lie thought now was the ;
time for the Stato to doclaro her ability i
and willingnoc-s to pay her new bonds. He !
wished old and new bonds put on tho same j
footing, all made special tax bond. He !
spoko at sumo
length,
.
declaring against
the motion to re-
repudiation, &c
Mr. Iucrara favored
consider.
Mr. Argo said he opposed repudiation,
except in case of the direst necessity ; but
he was opposed to thieving in every shape
and form. It was charged that thieving
was going on in our Railroad bonds, also,
that collusion between these managing tho
bonds and tho purchasers existed; he de
sired the postponement to give committees
to investigate these charges time to roport.
If the reports show no ground for the
charges, it will then be time enough for
these resolutions ; at present this Legisla
ture is acting in tho dark on the matter.
Mr. Pou was opposed to the motion to
reconsider. He thought no one could ba
hurt by the postponement; at least, no one
who had a right to the consideration of
the Legislature. The bonds were either
in the hands of the authorities of tho Rail
roads or those of purchasers, if the for
mer, let them call at the Treasurer's office,
draw the interest on them and go to work
on their roads; if in the hands of the lat
ler, let them call for the interest of six
cents on the dollar. That of itself is one
sixth of the present worth of the bonds,
and probably one-sixth of the investment
m?.de in them by the purchaser. Let the
Legislature in this matter "make haste
slowly" and act conscientiously and with
its best judgment.
Mr. Justice favored the reconsideration.
He was opposed to repudiation, and said
it was the doctrine the Democrats hoped
to carry the next election withs and this
movement would give them strength.
Mr. Hodnett said, when money matters
were discussed the interest of the bond
holders seemed to absorb tho attention of
some gentlemen, while the interest of the
poor people was completely ignored. If
the cry of repudiation was raised, gentle
men should remember that the Republi
can party was born with the word written
upon its forehead. Tholiew Constitution,
which the Republicans forced upon tho
people, repudiated, in the homestead ar
ticle, millions of debt between citizen and
citizen, while the bloated bondholder had
pledges of security cdven. He came from
-"yi'r. ""iJJ& , " "
value of money earned by the sweat of
the brow.
Gentlemen were mistaken in regard to
the cause of the depreciation of our bonds.
Northern brokers and bankers wore shrewd
and far soeing men; they knew that the
neoole were over taxed and could not
pay.
Go to Greensboro' and seo the caravans
wliicli almost daily pass through that place
carrying our citizens to other States,
driven forth bv the enormous load of
taxation put upon them by tho legislature
of the Ilepublican party. At the close of
tho war, the Republican party came into
power professing to be tho poor man's
friend but in their reckless and lavish ex
penditures are taking away the little left
by tho war and driving them from their
homes by excessive taxation.
He had warned gentlemen last cession
that these iavish appropriations of money
would educate tho peoxle to tho doctrine
of repudiation. The people were fast be
coming aware how their interest was being
abused and if gentlemen did not pause in
their career, other representatives would
be sent here, who would attend moro to
the interest of their constituents than to
the bondholders in Wall street.
After somo farther discussion the House
adjourned until to-morrow morning at 10
o'clock.
The
Premium List. Wo continue to
learn of errors in tho Premium List. We
hopo all will bo corrected in time for the
publication of the official list by the Asso

Mrs. P. A. Mayo, cf Pdchmond, Va., for
tho best assortment of preserves.
Mrs. P. Murphy received a diploma for
tho best sweet pickle.
Mrs. J. H. West, of Virginia, instead of
Mrs. S. M. West, divided tho first pre
mium with Mrs. Geo. Chadbourn for wax
work. Receipts at the 'Fair Tho receipts
for admission to the Fair last week
amounted to $2,238,171. This does not
include the sale of life membership tick
ets. Nor i3 it a fair means of judging the
number in attendance, both life and annn
al members being permitted fo pass then
families in free of charge.
This is doing very well for our first Fair.

mistakes, they will be called to the atten

Alex. Bussoline obtained a premium of

Jack Odenheimer was awarded a certifi

Serious Acuident An Infant Burned
to Death. We regret to learn that an
accident occurel at Lillington on Satur
day morning tho 20th instant, which re
sulted In the death cf an infant, asred
about 22 months.
Tho mother, whose name wo aro un
able to learn, was absent at work and left
her child in chargo of another about 3
years of age. During her absence the
clothes of the youngest took fire. A neigh
bor passing heard the scream and rau into
the house, and endeavored to smother the
fire, but not until it had sustained serious
injury, its face and body were terribly
burned, so much so, in fact, that both
eves were

Commendable Liberality. Mr. Thomas
Monk, a most enternrisinf? farmer living
A (I
near this city, obtained twenty-nine dollars
in premiums at tho late Fair, as follows:
Rest yearling bull, $G; second best heif
er, $0; best boar, G; best sow, $G; best
lot of pigs, 85. Mr. Monk has taken out
a Life Membership in the Association, in
stead of tho money premiums. We were
prepared to see such liberality from one
whose contributions to the Fair gave evi
dence not only of his interest in its suc
cess, but of the energy and enterprise of
his operations. Wo commend his example
to others.
The following letter from Messrs. DeRos.
set & Co. has been placed upon file, and
exhibits the same liberality displayed by
this firm in their efforts to render the Fair
asucces3:

tape Fear Agricultural Fair.
Thursday last we spent in Wilmington
in attendance on the first annual Fair of
the Cape Fear Agricultural Association,
and a grand affair, and joyous occasion it
was. Men and brethren met who had not
seen each other since the great fight in the
Wilderness, or at the charge at Chancel
lorsville, or the retreat from Gettysburg.
Men met who had not seen eacn other
6ince they parted at Appomattox, with fall
eyes and heavy hearts. Right hearty was
the greeting, and the meeting of these re
constructed farmers and friends, from
Gen. Leo's army, formed an army of farm
ers, their sons and daughters, met to cele
brate the triumphs of peace instead of
those of war. The Fair was worthy of the
Cape Fear in tho days of the Ashes,
Moores, Waddells, Hoopers, Harnetts,
Quinces, McLeans. Campbells, Hills, Lil
lmgtons, Nixons, Walkers, Mears, Wrights,
Cowans, llusseils and their noble com
peers, who made the Cape Fear what it is,
and why should it not have been worthy
oi these illustrious men ? We had their
grand children and groat grand children
to make the Fair what it was, a grand
success.
A great, great grand son of Gov. Sam.
Ashe, was assigned tho duty of conducting
the corps editorial over the Fair Grounds
and showing them all the sights. Every
citizen of Wilmington, old and young,
seems to have had an assigned duty to per
form, and so graciously was it performed
that many visitors did not even find out
that they had been assigned for tho par
ticular duty.
Twenty and seven times were we asked
if tho Cape Fear Fair did not beat the
State Fair ? Our answer was, that we
should not be expected to say so, if it did,
ours (the State's) was metropolitan while
the Cape Fear was only provincial, and it
would not do for an editor at the Capital
to admit that the Province had beaten the
metropolis.
In some respects tho provincial beat tho
metropolitan Favr; as a wholo tho metro
politan beat the provincial. Tho provin
cial excelled in numbers and tho zest and
zeal with which the ladies entered into it.
Numbers, Horses, Cattle, and pretty Girls
are prominent features in all Fairs, and
while the province beat us in the first, we
are entitled to tho premium m the three
last. In the last named feature our excel
lence was so slight however, that it is
hardly worth counting; certainly not to be
boasted of.

General Colston's fine corpa of cadets
presented a handsome appearance ; their
drill, discipline, soldier-like action and
bearing, won the admiration of all. The
President, Faculty and Trustees of the
Universitv should all have been thero to
see how easy it is for a man of merit,
though a stranger, to establish a school in
- . North Carolina
Judcro Howard's speech was in excellent
taste, well conceived, eloquently and forci
bly expressed; it would not have offended
carpet baggers ha-1 they been there to hear
it. He counseled moderation, and recon
cilation, but said there should be no heart
and hand for the man who, enjoying our
hosDitalitv. cries 'treason" at our house
s V '
doors.
Those who did much for the success of
the Fair seemed anxious to Rive all the
credit to the President, Colonel Fremont
who works with great energy and suc
cess at everything ho undertakes; wheth
er it be to run a Railroad or au Aeri.mUu
ral Fair.
We commend to the Raleigh and Gas
ton and tho North Carnlir,.- TCnad fl..-
policy pursued by the Wilmiuctou aud
Weldon Road ia connection witlitho Fair.
We heard the success of the Fair attribu
ted, by many, to the liberal policy of the
Road. However that may be," wo see
great good to come of Fairs Let Morgan
ton and Charlotte have theirs next yew,
something must bo done for tho agricultu
ral improvement of the State, and the bet
ter cultivation of soil; everything depends
upon it.
Feknelius calls disease an affection of
the body, contrary t nature : it purturba
tion of its habit : a derangement of its
courses. What disease is, sometimes
eludes human intelligence, but some dis
eases are known their origin, action and
even their antidotes. Whoever has dis
covered an actual remedy for one disease,
has done something for his race. Doct.
Aver has done more, for his medicines af
ford us the means to. control and euro
several dangerous disorders. We raroly
speak on medical subject, preferring to
leave them to physicians, who understand
them better. But such efforts as are seen
in our midst, on affections of tho lungs by
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, on ecrofulons com
plaints by his Sarsaparilla, and on tho
several complaints that they euro by Ayer's
Pills, should not bo ignored.

A SrLENDTD Pump. By reference to en
advertisement in another column, it will
be seen that Mr. J. L. Kitchen, of Pitt
county, has obtained tho exclusive right
to sell Balding' Patent Glass Submerged
Double-Acting Forco Pump throughout
tho States of North and South Carolina.
Ho is now getting ready to manufacture
these pumps, and will furnish them to the
public in any section. The reputation
this pump has obtained over all other3 is
sufficient evidenco of its merit. The great
virtue in it is that it has no friction, and
if worked in a well in which there i? no
sand the packing will last fifteen years,
and it will never get out of order. Mr. K.
passed through our place yesterday, and
had one of his pumps with him. Wo un
hesitatingly commend him to the public,
as wo know him to bo u gentleman that
will mako no representation that is not
correct.

Miss IJ.LLIK
DIED.
On the evening of the 17th inst., at tho resi
dence of her sou, Mr. B. L. Patterson, in Salem,
N. C, Mrs. P. C ABO LINK rATTEBSON, wifo of
Gen. Sam'l F. Patterson, of Caldwell county.
Mrs. P. was in hor Clth yoar ; had lived a life
of great usefulness, was much beloved, and tho
news of her death will carry sorrow to many
hearts.
We Live in Three Climates.
In this country wo have at difleront seasons of
the year, tho tomperaturo of throe climates. Our
Springs and Autumns have a softness and mild
ness that belong only to tho Tomporato Zones ;
our Mid-eummora arc torrid, and our Mid-win-tora
almost arctio in their frigidity. These
changoe, involving a variation of from ninety to
ono hundred degrees of Fahrenheit during the
year, aro upon tho whole conducive to health and
long life, but they tend lo cn tail upon us some
distressing complaints which can only bo escaped
by tho excrciso of du 3 care and tho ubo of a pro
per p,ntidoto when tho system ia pro-disposed to
contract them. Tho chief aud most annoying or
thceo disorders is dyepopeia, onco supposed to
bo ineurablo, but which, sinco the introduction
of HOJTEITEB'S STOMACH BITTERS, now
about twenty years ago, has proved to be a per
fectly manageablo disease.
In tho Spring and Fall, but more especially iu
the Fall, the symptoms of dyspepsia aro gener
ally aggravated. Tho profuso expenditure of tho
animal lluids under tho burning sun of Summer,
is apt to lcavo tho stomach weak and indolent
and incompetent to tho task of perfoct digestion.
It required a tome which will rouse it from its
lethargy and brace end invigorate without irrita
ting or irdlaming ii. This tonic has boon pro
vided in tho wonderful vegetable preparation
which has replaced in a great measure, all tho
old palliatives formerly proMcribod by physicians,
under tho false idea that the disorder could not
be radically cured. Tho suecesa of HOSTET
TEIVS BITTEB3, in ah tho varieties of dyspep
sia, acute or chronic, has effijctually exploded
this fallacy, and it ia now recommended aa a spe
cific for indigestion by some of tho mot;t eminent
members cf tho medical profession.
Half way up Lookout Mounlaio, tbo placa
wheic memory is utirretl by a thouaaDd thrilling
association?, aud where th bravo boys of both
armies met and fought hand to hand, whore th
blood of both friend and foo was mingled togeth
er and ran down tbo mountain nidi iu rivulets, i
a kioooth-fdce.l rock, upon which a poor, wound
ed eoldi' t inherited tho following :
" S. T. --HV,!) X. - Karly ia tho bitliolwa t
wounded and carried to thi spot by two clever
Yanks.' They bade me larowell, and as they
nupposed, to die, for I was so weak from loss of
blood thsu I could but faintly thank them lor
their kindness. They left in my cmtocu a part
bottle of Plantation Bittek.s, to wbich I owe
my lifo, for it strengthened mc, and kopt life
within me until help came and my wound was
dressed. God bless them for their kindness, and
' tor tho Plantation Bixtebs.
