BjWla,l,IAM II. JBJBANAUJD. : WILMINGTON, N. C : Tuesday Morning, May 13, 1879. PBNDLETON'J PROJBCI'. ' We have not bestowed much con sideration upon Senator Pendleton's bill to eive members of the Cabinet seals in the two Houses of Congress. Our ancestors did' not think it ad visable to copy the English; custom in that particular, when they were forming the great Instrument, and as we have got along without it thus far we doubt the expediency of now making a change. The New York Sun thus states its objection: "Onr Government is eood eaoueb. as it is, and the best, by far, that has ever been established on the face of the earth, if it ia nnlv well administered. Mr. Pendleton's plan of putting the Secretaries into the two Houses of Congress would iena greauy 10 enlarge the power and influence of the Ex ecutive Department, and to render that de partment dangerous to the liberties of the people. ' . "It is not to be lost signt 01 mat contem poraneously with this movement by a prominent Democrat, the Republican party are trying to increase the power of the Ex ecutive by an unprecedented prolongation of its administration in the bands of one man. ' ; . v "Tha neoDle should frown on both these efforts. They lie in the direction of mo narchical government." fRE FOWtlB OFTHE HOUSE. The question of the right of the House of Representatives to origi nate all bills of supply is a very im portant one. The Stalwarts are fight ing it strongly. But the whole weight of authority is directly against them. We have already quoted the opinions of leading Republicans in the past. We have also copied from history what was the usage in England. We find in an exchange the , following paragraph, copied from the fifty-seventh number of the Federalist, the joint work of Alexander Hamilton and James Madison,' with possibly the exception of one or two papers by John Jay: . . 'The House of Representatives cannot only refuse, but they alone can propose supplies for the support of the Govern ment They, in a word, hold the purse, that powerful instrument by which we be hold, in the history of the British constitu tion, an infant and humble representation of the people gradually enlarging the sphere of its activity and importance, and finally reducing, as far as it seems to have wished, all the overgrown prerogatives of the other branches ; of the Government. This power over the. nurse may. in fact, be regarded as the most complete and effec tual weapon witn wnicn any constitution can arm the immediate representatives of the people for obtaining a redress of every grievance, and for carrying into effect every just ana salutary measure." . This is the way the very able Hamilton and the pure and honorable Madison, the -third President, re- garded the matter of raising supplies. They are clear and emphatic. They understood 5 what the Constitution meant better than any one else, as they had more to do in its formation than any other statesmen in the " country. :" - We have copied what Wm. H. Seward, and ; Wm.Pitt Fessenden, two able and thorough Republicans had to say about it. ' Henry Wilson, Vice President of the United States d uring Grants first term!, thus held : ' V 'The House of Representatives, says Mr. Madison, can not only refuse, but they alone can propose the supplies re- quiaiKi lur mo support 01 ine Government This decleration is fall, .ample, complete. If the House can refuse the supplies re quisite for the support of the Government; if it possesses this complete and effective weapon for obtaining a redress of everv grievance, and for carrying into -effect every just and salutary measure, the occa sion sarely demands the full exercise of that power of the House, and in its firm exercise, to use the words of Madison, it will be sustained by the consciousness of oeing supported in its demands by right. uy icaauiiuQu uy me uonstuuuon." V The late Joshua R. Giddings, w hose name was a tower of strength with the old time abolitionists, held this opinion t "I take the position which I have always maintained here for myself, and ; which T am:: unwilling, i in ' the midst of passing events, to leave unproclaimed on this floor, and that is,1 that the people have a' perfect unlimited control oi their own funds. We are the Representatives of the neoole here We are their agents; sent here to deal out ' their funds, and it is net' for the Senate or the Executive to say that we shall appro priate them for any object revolting to the proper sense of justice and propriety. I lay down' this as a principle too old and too well understood lo be disputed at this uay. -. , , , Other Republican aathorities are available It. is plain .enough that the great . Republican, lights were agreed in this matter; - The House has full authority, according to the best expounders of the Constitution, to control the public funds. It is well enough to understand this great principle -'"-.- There are so few papers in the North that appear willing to deal out even-handed justice o the South that we are specially gratified when we chance to meet with a cordial or fair utterance concerning our people. We are both surprised and pleased when. we find such expressions in a Republican paper. It is very rarely that we meet with any opinions in Republican organs that are riot vin dictive and. slanderous. The follow ing from the Philadelphia Telegraph is too remarkable to be omitted, as it is a Republican paper. It is just and candid enough to say of the South : - ' "It does not want war, but peace, though there is no doubt that it does very much wish to retrieve at Washington what it lost before Richmond; it has almost virtual control ' of Congress- solely because it is, for the most part, represented in that body by abler men than is the North, for its best men are there, and sent there because of their eminent ability. Precisely why the North sends to the Home or Senate the sort of men who compose the - majority of its Senators and Representatives we would not pretend to say, but possibly because they are unfit for anything else, and that when the North can find no worth of any kind in a citizen it makes him a Congressman. It is brains that gives the South its over whelming influence at Washington brains and Northern doughfaceism." The contributions for the Oxford Orphan Asylum for April are com paratively small. It is a noble chari ty, and our people should not weary in well doing. Tie Superintendent, in his April report, says: "We close the month of April with 130 orphans, and are still grateful for excellent health. : "Several boys and girls are now ready to leave, and due attention will be given to definite propositions. . i "St. John's Day, June 24th, is to be cele brated at Louisburg, LumbeitOD, Oxford, and perhaps other places, i "Mr. F. H. Busbee will speak at Louis burg. The Grand Master and others will deliver addresses in the Orphan Chapel at Oxford." , '"'--.v' Cannot Wilmington help the little orphan girls and boys, who are thus so mercifully cared for, on that day ? Wilmington, with its sixteen to eighteen thousand inhabitants, ought to remember "the fatherless" in their destitution. '"""."v""-"'" There is one striking difference in the political condition of this country ajnd England. Whenever a contest between the people and the Crown takes place the people are as one.- In this country, when Federal encroach ments are to be resisted, unfortunate ly the people divide. This gives pow er and encouragement to ' usurpers. and endangers, to that extent, the li bertie8 of the very people who thus antagonize. The Baltimore Suh says i "The principles of law upon which the interference or Dresenfie of tronnn it tha Dolls is forbidden is ah nM na iVa Avm of WMW J SV jaiuwaxu x. in me jsriusn common law, ana wus crecieu into a statute in the eiorhth enr of the reign of George IL ' This statute was reenactea in . me tentn and eievonti, - nf Queen Victoria's reign " The English peo ple are all of one party in this matter, and are not wining to imperii their liberties in me pursuit qi parusan enas."

There is a great "deal of ad mitted truth in what he says; but the spirit that suggested it : cannot be accurately judged except with preference to the pre- cedent conditions which - we have orieny and - unwillingly narrated.1 It is known that Donan has represented tbe r most ex treme school otABtiRadical and anti Northern politics; that his peculiar rhetoric has found employment in countless outer diatribes and-stinging satires against the people and the institutions of , the 'North, and that he has professed an adhesion of the most extravagant , type, to all the cus toms and practices which have . been re garded as distinctively Southern. " Such being the case, it is significant that- Donan should now publish a long letter in a Chi cago journal." . -..; 5 , , . - Tea is successfully cultivated in Eastern Carolina as we learu from the Elizabeth City Economist. Mr. C. W. Askew, of Plymouth, has been growing tea for several years.' i The Economist gives- 'this information concerning his mode of preparation aud culture: : ""Plant in April, as you do . cabbage plants. As the Beed begin to ripen pull off the leaves that grow along the stalk. Put them in a tin pan and put the pan in the oven of a stove and when the leaves wilt, in about a minute, taKo them put and tho roughly cool and -dry ,thewu. When dry, put them back in the. oven and brown them, shaking them while browning to prevent burning. They will brown . in about a minute. Then take them oat and let them cool. When cool put them in a third time and let them stay another minute, keeping them in motion. This makes the best quality of tea. The next quality is made of the leaves which grow on the branches, prepared in the same way. The third and inferior quality is made of the leaves which form last. AH prepared in the same way." I The Economist says Mr. Askew's tea is as good as that found in the stores. It ia not generally known that Russia is a large grower of tobacco. The seed used came from Turkey and this country. According to the official report for the year 1877, there were raised in twelve Sonthern pro vinces about 3,000,000 poods (or 120,000,000 pounds) ; in Caucasus, 75,000 poods (or 3,000,000 pounds) ; and in Siberia, 27,000 poods (or 1,080,000 pounds); or, altogether, about 3,102,000 poods. At the rate of two roubles per pood, the revenue from tobacco is over $6,000,000 a year. All the Russian tobacco is consumed by Russians. , . Mr. Lester Wallack, one of the most accomplished of American act ors, has no hope for the legitimate drama in this country. In England, the old plays crowd the theatres, whilst in this country "Pinafore," and light comedies and burlesque plays and operas have driven from, the stage, almost entirely, intellectual acting. This is the truth, and it is not very creditable to American taste and culture. r The newly adopted Constitution of California is said to be very much down on the Chinese and on railroad corporations. It is believed that a panic throughout the State will oc cur. Already business interests feel the shock.. The fellows who tinkered at it left the State without any go vernment from June to Jannary,1880. The art of making laws and constitu tions is lost. The Augusta (Georgia) Common Council has passed an ordinance to aid the State law in regard to - sup pressing the habit of carrying con cealed weapons. The city police are to examine all persons arrested and when weapons are found to prosecute them to the extent of the law. It is. thought that this ordinance will be an effective agent in curing an evil. CURRENT COKIIIENT. i ; ; It is vain in this country for the minority to attempt to rule the majority. The many cannot be co erced by the few., A man holding the Presidential authority through fraud may offer a veto; but the proper re ply to it is to reenact the laws to which he objects, and to adjourn, leaving to him to face the responsi bility of disbanding the army and dis organizing thai public service,? if he chooses so to do because the majority of Congress grant, appropriations on terms different from those he would dictate.- , Y, Sun, Ind. . . : I r-r It: is i preposterous ; for the President (o ..insist ;on the right of casual attendants at the polls to bear arms in the same breath, in which he concedes that it is illegal for Federal soldiers to be present. iTheV natural presumption is that people go to the polls unarmed . and that a posse will consist of unarmed men. r An armed Dosse comitatus would ' imolv deliber ate preparations ' by the; Marshal to employ force before any occasion had arisen. -If one party goes to the polls armed both parties will, and when the Marshal summons his posse he is as likely to be whipped as to sucoeed.

John Rafferty was on his knees, in a front room of his residence, in Boston, Mass., saying his morning prayer, and the noise of the children . playing in the street disturbed bis devotions.
