A NEW NA1HB FOB BIRI. We propose to call, our Governor Little Bitterness, since his undignified, mean and malignant attack on Gen. D. II- Hill, 6Vertheshoulders of the Charlotte Military Institute. The circumstances are these; Col. J. P. Thomas, principal of the new military institution at Charlotte, wrote to Gov. Caldwell, requesting the use of some of the small arms of the State, a favor which has been cus tomarily extended to military organ izations. The Governor declined to furnish the arms, and in a letter to Col. Thomas assigned as a reason that Gen. D. IL' Ifill, "a person "dis loyal to the United States Govern ment," was connected with the school. Concerning this ; exhibition of a judicial temper and lovely -spirit we have this to remark: It sounds like Caldwell. Gen. Hill has beenpar doned" by Congress, but the Governor, Little Bitterness, is more loyal than Congress. Congress pardons; Little Bitterness, never never. North Carolina Legislatiare.

The following is the amendment of Mr. Norwood, which is intended as a substitute for the bill: Strike out all after the words " the General Assembly : do," and insert the following. - A Resolvedt .. That in consequence of the calamitous results of the Jate war. and 6f the subseqaent legisla- tioafof both -Jhe General aadte Carolina have been deprived of; all ability- to pay; at the present time, anv nart of their public debt. 2.; n That . a. new government has WILMINGTON, been imposed upon the people, far more burdensome in its administra tion than the old one, which is true of all its departments and divisions of counties, townships and towns. That in addition to this heavy burden as much as our people in their im poverished condition can be reason ably expected to bear, and in addi tion to an i absolutely necessary sys tem of Common School instruction, towards which only a feeble begin ning has been made, our constitution requiring in terms which may not be unheeded, if in our power to obey them, and common humanity unites her voice in still louder tones that the neglected idiots, computed in num bers at 1,000; the still neglected in sane, (after providing for some of them,) computed in numbers at 500; that the large number of the Deaf, Dumb and Blind who are still un friended and forsaken, and the whole multitude of destitute Orphans shall all be gathered within the folds of an enlarged State charity, and be prop perly cared for. 3. That these objects impose a higher obligation, a more imperious necessity upon the people of the State at the present time, than even the high and solemn obligation to pay the just and honest portion of their public debt, especially when it is re membered that the debt was contract ed under circuwstauces now so changed, and depending for its pay ment upon means now so completely swept away. 4. That npon a review of the whole subject, we submit it to the enlight ened consideration of Congress, if the General Government would not act wisely by assuming the payment of so much of the debt of the State of North Carolina, as in justice and equity ought to be paid.

Price, who resides on Fourth, between Church and Castle streets, was awakened from her sleep by some noise, which she took to be caused by some one in the room. Still it was only a suspicion and she re solved to await events. In turning herself on the bed, however, she made some noise and was immediately startled by the falling of a bureau drawer ou the floor. She jumped from the bed and was about to make an alarm when she was seized and a hand hastily placed over her mouth. .She finally succeeded in releasing herself from the fellow's grasp, when she ran to the door 'ef . a ; room' occupied -by a young man by the name of Farrow, who was boarding in the house, and aroused him. He hastily dressed and searched for the robber, but it was found that he had escaped by the front door, which was dis covered to be open. The thief had thor oughly ransacked the bureau drawers, the contents of which were found scattered promiscuously about the floor, though noth ing was missed, showing that the thief was mainly after money; Subsequently, npon examining his pockets, Mr. Farrow discov ered that the thief had been in his room and robbed him of $18 in greenbacks. It was dark at the time and Mrs. Price Was unable to distinguish the color of the visitor. The Bible Cane-Retirement of Rev. P. A. Strobel. Rev. P. A. Strobel, District Superinten dent of the American Bible Society for North Carolina, publishes a card in the Raleigh papers announcing his retirement from the position on the 1st of January next, some mention of which ' has already been made in these columns. He says he takes this step in the interest of the noble Christian enterprise which he has represen ted for the past two years, tenders his ac knowledgment for the Christian sympathy and co-operation which have been so gen erously extended to him by the friends of the Bible cause throughout the State and? closes by commending the cause to the con fidence and earnest support of all the Chris tian peoole of North Carolina Slncnlor Death of a Horse. A horse belonging to Mr. John P. Ban nerman, of Holly Township in this county, died under rather peculiar circumstances a day or two since. The anipal was 86 years old and was turned our to graze, there be ing apparantly nothing the matter with him at the time. Finally he was missed and, npon search being -11846 for him, he was tracked to the church yard where he was found dead. Why he should , have sought out that particular locality in "which to ; Be down and terminate his long and eventful existence is the question. V : N. C, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1873. Fire A . Narrow Eeape One of the Advantage of Being; a Subscriber ' to a Newspaper. The residence of Mr. J. A. Parker, on Eighth, between Market and Dock streets, narrowly escaped .being the scene of a de structive and dangerous conflagration on Sunday morning last. It seems that Mr. Hugh Green, one of the indefatigable city agents of the Stab, happened to go to Mr. Parker's house, about half past 4 o'clock in the morning, for the purpose of delivering his paper, when he discovered a bright light in the rear of the house. Upon inves tigation he found that the back piazza was on fire. Mr. Green hurriedly aroused the inmates and by well directed efforts the flames were soon brought under control. It appears that the servant girl had placed a box of ashes in the corner of the piazza, among which there happened to be some live coals, which communicated to the box and thence to the floor of the piazza, and when Mr. Green so opportunely arrived both were in a light blaze. Mr. Parker says he has discovered, a nev feature of usefulness in the Moru ioo Stab and an additional incentive for remaining a subscriber to it, as, had he not been a subscriber to it at that particular time his dwelling would no doubt have been consumed. And this is not all : The stair case was in close proximity to the fire, while the family were all sleeping en the second floor, and had the fire been allowed a few more minutes to gain headway the family would have found it very difficult to have effected their escape. The house, too, is in a thickly settled neighborhood and there is no estimating the amount of damage that might have ensued. North Carolina Justice. Judge Cantwell, of this city, yesterday completed his draft of the new North Caro lina Justice, a work upon which he has been engaged since June. We understand that it is not intended to be given to the printers until after the Legislature adjourns, so as to cover in any possible amendments. The original work was composed in 1856, imme diately after the Revised Code was adopted. This book will be shaped to accompany Battle's Revisal. The former work was en dorsed and complimented in the highest terms by the present Chief Justice Pearson and his predecessor, Ruffin; also by the President of the University, Gov. Swain, Judges Battle and Manly, the late H. W. Miller, Mr. Phillips and others. No book published in North Carolina ever met with such a rapid sale or was so generally known and used as CantwelTs Justice. It was to he found in every neighborhood in the State. The new work will be before the public in a short time, and will stand upon its merits and usefulness to' the persons fr whose use it is intended. mayor's Court. The following cases were disposed C yesterday morning: Henry Morris, charged with stealing coal from the Wilmington and Weldon Rail road. Case continued until Tuesday at 9 o'clock. H. Moore, disorderly. Case dismissed. Henry Anderson and W. C. McDaniels, charged with cursing, fighting and disorder ly conduct. The case of McDaniels was dismissed ; Henry Anderson required to pay $10 and costs. John Oldenbottel and Jno. Davis, impli cated in the difficulty on Saturday morning last, at the corner of Tenth and Market streets, in which the latter was struck with an axe-helve, were found guilty. Judg1 ment against Davis for $20 and against Oldenbottel for $10. Two young men charged with playing; ball in front of church on Fourth and Daw son streets, were found guilty and ene re quired to pay a fine of $5 and the other the costs. The young gentleman who fell a martyr to his zeal in coaxing Christmas on Satur day afternoon, was up for a hearing and was fined $20 and costs, besides being required to pay $5 for repairing the policeman's uni form who arrested him, which was torn in the struggle. Capture of a Chicken Thief. On Sunday night, about 9 o'clock, Officer Lawrence Allen, of the police force, dis covered a colored man in the act of rob bing a chicken coop on the premises of a person residing in the vicinity of the cor ner of Nutt and Walnut streets. He called to the fellow, who hastily jumped the fence and started to run, the officer discharging his pistol after .aim, ' hut without effect. Mr. J. J. O'Brien happened in the neigh borhood at the time and took; up the chase, finally succeeding in capturing the thief at the corner of Second and Walnut streets, when he was taken to the Guard House and locked up. , ' . , Seizure of a Money Drawer with Its 'contents Some thief entered the store of Mr.' Gay, corner ofFourth andTHarnet streets, yes terday, about 13 o'clock, and succeeded in stealing his money drawer, : containing a considerable amount of change and a lot of stamped envelopes. He says a small sized colored'man, whom he should know if he should see Inm again, had' heen lounging about the store for some time and he is con fident that this fellow seized an opportunity when he (Mr. G.) was busily engaged in another part of the store and not paying .particular attention to him to effect the rob bery.

Wil son will be remembered as the man with but one leg, who has been operating in front of the Market since the close of the Fair with a lifting machine. He says he served in the Confederate Army during the war, being a member of the 28th South Carolina regiment, aud that he lost bis leg at Fort Darling, on the James River. He betrayed a great deal of emotion when in formed that he must go to jail and shed tears copiously. Other parties implicated in the affair have net yet been arrested. A young man in the employ of Mr. G. A. Poppe, who has a store at the corner of Fourth and Castle streets, who is said to be a Russian by birth, was arrested yester day on the charge of stealing $8,alot of yeast powders, cigars, &c, from his employer.' He was taken before Justice Gardner, who required him to enter into security for his appearance before him to-day at 2 P. M, in default of which he was committed to jail. The Festival.
