Ia reieird to Mh CMcRae'8 letter to the 6tab, which we hoped would prove a tho rough discussion of the- proposition as ft stands, it is so far oat of the way that we would be misleading the people by printing it. Raleigh Observer. We never supposed oar friend of the Observer was distinguished as a humorist,. bpt JkseemJfhat he tfaa gifts we" toewnotof. After paolisli ing certain documents and papers favoring the selloutNorth Caro lina and its interests, it cannot agree to publish Colouel McRae's article because it"would mislead the people," or words to that effect. --That is a good joke. It is very humorous. The people are to be caught by a snap judgment. Not one in twenty of the voters will have the slightest know- U edgaoi wlatbbemgdp lators will grope in the dark not know ing what their constituents would think or say if they were'properly in formed as to the dangers threatening their mterests,and the one-sided cha-r racter of the Best bill. The people need all the information ftiey can get. They will get but one side from cer tain papers that appear desperately zealous for Best and Company. Ex Senator Dortch and Col. McRae are the only gentlemen who have under taken an elabora te argument in ojppo-1 sition, bntthyart nof alio wed it f hearing. This is called "turning on the light." Tbeaneieats had idea that "turning on the light" carried with it the maxim, audi alteram par tem hear the other ' si3e. ' " ' ! f Tha Pemotratio , gtata .Committee has just appointed the time for hold ing the State Convention to be Jane 17 th nearly five months before the election. The excuse for this none- that it was necessary to make a thorough canvass. Look at it. The mostr important question that has come before the 1861, when the State seceded from the Jnuikvv& wnterad iiipon a long and most disastrous war, is I nowlJorcftd ffjir'tbeby tion of uov.

Tliru weeks are deemed ample time for the voters of tbeJkate infprm tbemselvM of the oiiVomplex. tion they have ever been oalled upon to consider with the one exception re- It uxpectetStS?twtt and fifty thousand voters scattered over a Bute five haaflradailtj across, with poor mail facilities, and the most of them not a readtner teo.

I It requires nearly five months to arouse tho people to a full sense of their duty to vote sin act they have been performing from year to year from their majority; but three weeks are ample for the purpose of inform ing the same people in regard to a question of dollars and cents in- prolving millions and the prosperity of a large section of a State. Without a snap judgment the per sons who are backing up the Best project with pen and influence could not hope to attain their ends. If the people bad from now .until the meet- of the Legislature in January, 1881, to consider the matter and in form themselves of the exact nature of the proposed sell-out, they would not listen for a moment to the pro Ksal in its present shape. As we said in the Stab of Sunday, we have no idea that the Best bill can pass as it is. Without amendments it would be a great outrage to pass it. If the Democrats as a body vote for that bill without a change they may look Out for a regular cyclone in Novem ber. There are thousands of voters who will not sustain them in such a course. We feel confident that there are many Democrats in both Houses who will not favor the bill as it now stands. We hope that the best lawyers in the State will give the Best bill a very critical examination and let the Legislature have the benefit of their views. We would like to hear what such lawyers as LaBier, .MerrimoD, Ed. Graham Haywood, Rodman (said to! be the best conveyancer in the State), and others who could be named, have to say about the bill. We believe it would have been difficult to have drawn the' bill with more direct reference to the interest of the Syndicate if the best New York lawyer had been brought to North Carolina for the Kmrpoae. We would like to know where the bill was 'drawn, and whose worfcrnansmp it is. it is a great cu riosity, and whether it passes or not, it should be printed in large type, on a proad sheet, should be framed and hqng up in both Houses of the Gene ral Assembly, and in every depart ment in the capitol, and henceforth should become a model of its kind. Aj hundred years hence it vroaid at tract more attention than the Magna of England. It should be headed "The Great Sell-out, or How Nprth Carolinians were Fleeced in 1880." ! GBOWINQ BRIGHTER.

As to some of the expense entailed ; on the county treasuries the Free Lanes says: 'Some months since a dead child was found in a well at Henderson: A coroner's in guest was . called, ; medical examinations; he)dt and a jury sworn. Nothing was found out, and a bill of $90 was presented to the copnty for payment Charlotte Demderat. There may bo cases in which the office is useless and the expeqse. un necessary, as. in the case . mentioned by the Free Lane. But are there not many other cases occurring eve ryj month when the services of " the Coroner are indispensable ? It is an old office, long existing in England and cannot well be dispensed with Mr. Gladstone has made a speech recently in London. Like all the ef forts of that very great man it at tracts the attention of his country men. He referred at length to Irish affairs. As the great leader of the party that will sooner or later be in the , ..... . . ascendant again, nis opinion is im portant. We find the following brief extract in an exchange: He disclaimed any friendship fox Home Rule, and said tbe unity of the empirejiod the authority of Parliament must be main tained independently of every other con sideration, but deprecated all angry judg ments of his Irish fellow-citixees, and said he could not forget the abominable conduct of this country towards Ireland for many generations." There was some fan in the House over a spat between two Northern Representatives. It is thus mention ed -in the-Richmond Dispatch's spe cial : General Warner pronounced Mr. Ha zleton's statement false ; whereupon tbe latter said he would hold the Ohio member personally responsible, but not with coffee and pistols. General Warren then said that the Wisconsin member had no right to be so much concerned about any class of pensioners, including those be bad called hospital pimps, because be neyer saw a bat tle field, but remained all during tbe war near the Canada line. By way of retort Mr. Hazleton declared that General War ner is drawing a pension for a wound re ceived in theback. Here tbe uproar was so great that -General Warner's excited re ply could not be beard." CDBBBltT C03HIIKNT. .
