Imagine a mass of bootless and
coatless meniua.l sorts of recumbent

rapt, inspired by the cheerful sur
roundings holding forth with more
i than a Burke's persuasiveness, a Cal

of manner and diction. This is what

SIX1Y-N1NTH DAY.
SENATE.
Monday, March 1.
Mr. Busbee, a resolution instruct
ing the Committee on Internal Im
provements to report a bill providing
by taxation or otherwise tor trie pro
tection of the State's interest in the
North Carolina Railroad and the
Western North Carolina Railroad.
Adopted.
i THE USURY QUESTION.
Mr. Williamson introduced a,t bill
to construe the true meaning of the
6th section or ratifying clause of the
Usury bill, whieh bill has passed both
Houses. The said section leaves a
doubt as to the time the said bill shall
co into effect, which was meant to
. . .... .,..-
go into effect wiinin tnircy aays.
On motioji, the rules were suspend
ed and the bill considered and warm
ly discussed at some length by Messrs.
French, Linney, Busbee, Williamson,
Mills. Cooke, Standford and Selby.
Mr. Busbee moved an amendment
that the bill do not go into effect
untilJanuarv 1, 1877.
Mr. Cooke moved an amendment
that the bill go into effect on the 1st
of November, 1875.
Mr. French moved to postpone the
whole question until to-morrow 12
o'clock, in order that the amendment
of Mr. LeGrand to postpone until 1st
of January, 1876,. (the special order
for that day,) could be considered at
the same time. Lost by a vote of
14 to 22.
Mr. Busbee's motion was lost by a
vote of 8 to 27.
Mr. Cooke's motion to postpone the
operations of the bill until 1st of
November, 1875, was lost by the fol
lowing vote: Yeas, 18: nays, 19.
The motion of Mr. Williamson
then passed its Becpnd reading by a
vote of 45 to 10, and being put on its
third reading Mr.. Cook moved that
the bill do not go into effect until the
15th of October, 1875.
Mr. Waring hoped this amendment
would be adopted, as large sections
of the State would be greatly dam
aged by the immediate operations of
this bill, and be desired that the peo
ple might be given time to get ready
its workings that the arrangements
already .made for this year may be
earned out. - -
Mr. Williamson wanted the bill to
go into effect at once.
Mr. Cooke thought it extremely
essential that his amendment' should
prevail.- The bill going into effect at
present would work disastrously in
the cotton sections of the State, ar
rangements having already been made
, for the present year between the
planters, merchants, bankers and cap
italists, and these planters should be

It says: The Southern people. Republican

some little on their courage, and it is really
heart-rending to hear a Northern organ of

opinion. He says

For our part, we beg Northern Republicans
to believe that we have still left some little

forced reconstruction are not now so badly
frightened as some of the so-called organs
would make the country believe. j

The Gharleston News and Couriw, speak
ing1 of Mr. Hiden's lecture in that city Mon
day night, says: "A large audience was in
attendance at the . Citadel Square Baptist
Church last night, to hear the anniversary
sermon before the Young Men's Missionary
Society, which was delivered by the Rev.
J. C. Hideu of Wilmington. The discourse
was rich in ! thought, elegant in diction,
abounded in apt and beautiful illustrations,
and was given with singular impressiveness
of tone and gesture. Mr. Hides is evi
dently a gentleman of thorough culture,
who has thought profoundly and learned
from critical study how to convey his
thoughts in the purest English. Rev. Dr.
Wightman (assisted the pastor in the ser
vices. We hope the collection taken for
the benefit of the society was liberal The
community will be glad to see from adver
tisements to-day and to-morrow that the
society have engaged Mr. Hideu for a lec
ture to-morrow night at the German Hall.
Attempt at Burglary.
Yesterday morning Capt. A. A. Moffit,
who resides on Fifth street . near Orange,
heard some noises down at the frontdoor
of his residence. "' and supposing it was
caused by a messenger from the house next
door, where; there was a yery sick child,
he arose and went down the stairs which
led into the entry near the front door.
As he approached the door, he heard
some person or persons rapidly leaving the
piazza which immediately fronts the door.
On inspection, he discovered that four au
ger holes had been bored through one of
the panels of the door, whereby a piece of
wood had been displaced about three inches
square, sufficiently near the lock to admit
of a party putting his hand in. The person
or persons were in. the act of boring two
holes below the place, for the purpose, it is
supposed, of j enlarging the bole. He or
they were, however, surprised in their in
genious plans, and escaped.

A New Trade. We notice discharging at the
wharf of Messrs. Adrian & Vollera, on the West
Bide of the rirer, the schooner Any a Barton, -which
comes direct from Guanahani Island with a cargo of
natural gnano in bulk, imported by the above named
firm.; This is a new feature. Heretofore our sup
plies of gnano have been derived mostly from
second Sfid third hands and the cost has been much
increased by frequent handling and : freighting, and
the rraality deteriorated. But this i guana coming
direct, with but one handling, being in bulk and in
the natural state, can be sold at much less prices
than those which are passed through many tranship
ments. The testimonials in favor of the, . Guanahani
Guano are f the very highest kind, It has' been
used now for two years past in- nearly. every cotton
county in the State, and the farmers using It having
come forward and freely teetified to its value. We
understand that every cargo to be imported is to be
analyzed before being offered for sale, and- if not
found up to the standard value will be refused. The
cargo landing now is pronounced a yery fine article
and as soon as the analysis is complete it will be
published for public inspection. We are glad to see
onr-merchants thus co-operating with' our farmers
in seeking to enable them to get their fertilizers
cheaper," It operates to the advantage of both
classes. 1 ; ;
Any inquiries by merchants, farmers or Grangers
will be fully answered by the above-named firm, who
will send testimonials on application.

Thu Tollbt Gun. Copy of Testimonial.
Hudson Citt, N..J., Sept 30th, 1874. Messrs. J.
& W. Toixet 29 Maiden Lane, New York: The
10-guage Gun No. 3078 1 ordered from you gives me
entire satisfaction. I was very exacting when or
dering the Gun, but mnst esy that you have more
than fulfilled what I required of you. I have shot
several breech-loaders by first-class makers, and
your gun beats them all for beaaty and workman
ship. As for -shooting qualities, yeur gun shoots
stronger and more even than any gun I ever skoj I
have shown it to several good judges (including
first-class gnnmakere) and all agree that the action
is very strong and durable, and that the gun is one
of the best they ever saw. I have made some very
long ehots with It, using only Z drs. of powder,
which is all your gun requires. I have shot it at a
targat according to the rules of the Turf, Field and
Farm trials, and the average of 6 shots at 40
yards is: Left-pattern, 169; penetration, 38:
right-pattern, 175; penetration ,39; using Zyi
drs. powder. Now I am sure such' a gun
is seldom met with, and am very proud to be
the' owner of it. But the real test of your gun
is in the field there it excells all others, killing
cleaner and handsomer than any gun I ever saw, as
you assured me they would. Both paper and metal
shells work splendidly. Gentlemen, I have to offer
yon my very best thanks, and will recommend your
guns to all my friends.
Yours Respectfully,
Henry Loriot.

ruary 26th, 1875, Ezeldal Walter, son ot Thos. J. and
Mry Emma Kamsey, aged three years, three
months and six days.
Little Walter was ill only a few days, and while
he had every attention that loving hands and a kind
physician could give, yet the stubborn disease would
not yield, but continued to baffle medical skill and
rack the little body with pa'n, until God. in mercy,
relieved Walter of suffering and took him to the
Courts of Glorv. Doth it seem cruel to you father
aad like hatred to you fond mother, to have your
precious boy taken from .you by the icv hand of
death i Remember that God noethall things well,
ana uiat wmcn is your toss is w alters eternal earn.
With all our watchfulness and care for our little
darlings w -cannot keep them from suffering the ills
of life, neither can we make them infinitely happy;
but our kind Father knows what is best for them and
us and will sever inflict severe punUhments only for
the good of his creatures, on, ? you could only look
beyond this vale of tears and see little Walter in a
robe of righteousness with a palm of victoiy in his
hand, a crown ot glory upon his brow, you would
readily conclude toat God had abundantly blessed
your boy. j
uo not wish nun to be here with us, for wehave
a hone in Christ that will bear us throueh this world
and carry us safely to onr little boy, in the realms of
etemai dues. m jr.
