By WU.I.IAIS a. BEBNAKD. WILMINGTON, N. C: j Saturday Evkntno, M&roh 27, 1880J EVENING EDITION; TUB VOTE. We wish to call. the special atten tion of oar readers to one fact in con4 nectiofijwith the passage of the Best bill. The final vote showed bat little opposition. In the Senate there were but 5 noes to 40 ayes; in the House bat 21 noes to 89 ayes. Why was this vote so small ? It is evident thai many of the opponents of the great sell out voted for the bill because after endeavoring to improve it they found it a foregone conclusion that the majority meant to sell at all hazards. But look at the votes on the vari ous amendments offered amend ments that were judicious, necessary and wise amendments that ought to have been accepted if the majority! really desired to protect the interests of the State and reduce the burdens of the people. Look at the rotes on those amendments. Tarn to Thurs day's proceedings is the Senate and scrutinize the language and intent of the amendments. No man of sense oan fail to see how important they were. Then look at the votes. Ton will find not five, bat sixteen, nine teen, and even twenty votes cast for some amendments, to twenty-six or twenty-seven against. By consulting the proceedings in the House on Thursday in to-day's paper, you will see important and absolutely necessary amendments! voted down, but not by the majority' that marked the final tote. Yoa will find forty-one and forty-two nega tives recorded. ;) So there was really on joint 'ballot over 60 votes recorded in favor of certain important amendments, which shows that' the seaser of a; strong minority was that the Best bill would not do, needed surgery j and 'Was drawn to favor and foster the buyer's interests tnd no the interests of the peoplef North, Carolina. ' ! TbefttrferiH MSome, ami -not 'many years hence, when it may be clearly discerned whether the majority qt the" minority possessed the wisdbr, prudence, judgment and far reaching sagacity, ' We now leave the matter as far as the Stab is concerned in the bands of the people. We are tho roughly sick, not to say disgusted, with the whple subject, and do not expect to return to.it again soon un less forced to do so. The Stab hopes that good may re suit from what has been done, and yet it is no casuist and tJoeaaot bi lievein the doctrine that evil may be dotw that good may tesnlt; If the Democratic party shall suffer bete after by the legislation of'thevmost cxtraofdinary- session, no one can lay the charge at tba door of the Stab. "Shake aot thy gory locks at , Thou eaas't notssj tee did it." , The whole conduct of the State officials and the advocates and friends of the Best bill appears to have been based on the principle, "If it were done, when 'tis done thebiH iwere well -f.'- MY It were done quietly." y if To quote stiU' farther iom -the same grand production, - - - . : . - Bot tu theae aaesr .

Russia is steadily preparing to push her oatposts still nearer to the "Bri tish dominions in India:1 Year Lby year witnesses territorial 'conquests. Late advioes show that Gen.

Kossia means business, and SUiglandj sooner "or later, will have to face Russia at the verge of her own conquests on the great Asi-i atio. Continent. It qaaybO j ntny yeari possibly a generation be fore the roar of arcitlery will be besTd . in that "distaniand , as 'tbe two great empires engage in the death straggle, but it will come inevitably. Such at any rate is the- view held by many of the leading rbrnds in Eng land. It is true, however, that there are those who do not believe that Russia has any serious designs Upon English possessions, and that owing to the immense distance between htr European dominions and Hindostan, and the impossibility of marching a great army so far from its base of supplies through hostile kingdoms, that war on a large soale will be im possible. In answer to this view it may be said that Russia already has posses sion of nearly two-thirds of Asia; that she will get nearer and nearer to British India by conquering hostile tribes or kingdoms; that she can take her troops by snips a thousand or so miles, then land them and begin the march of two thousand miles or more; that she will build railroads as she advances; that this will require many) years, possibly a half century, but! having made up her mind to overrun Asia sb-will keep pegging atray" in that direction. In the meantime Eng land will not be idle, and she will be steadily growing in population and developing in resources. The Russians are uncommonly good soldiers. With the exception of the English Napoleon never met with such an enemy who gave him such terrible resistance. Such is the voice of history. The English soldiers are equal to any in the world, but they will have worthy foemen when they meet the Russians. I "THE BULLS OF GOD." A writer Jiving at Milton, Florida, writes to the New York Journal of Uemmerce as follows: "Is the following a correct quotation, and where can it be found ? 'The mills of the Gods grind slowly, but grind exceeding small.' A learned professor and .a dis tinguished newsdealer here contend that it should be ,The mills of God grind slowly, but grind ixceedlng smalf, Afid givd'Lofig-' fellowa authority." - We give the reply of that trust worthy paper: "The original is in the Greek Oracula Sibyllina, Lib. vflL, 14, and Corp. Paisem. , Graec. vol. L, page 444. It is later in Her-, berl's Jacula Prudentum as 'God's mills grind slow but sure.' The Qermn poet Baron Friedrick Voo Logau, boro fn Silesia in 1604, embodied it in immortal, verse in his Retribution, of which Lqogfellow has' given us an English translation in the words: Though the mills of God grind slowly, yet they grind exceeding small: Though with patience He stands waiting,' with exactness grinds tie all." Years ago we gave the ,'trae read ing. Mr. J. H. Mills, Superinten dent of the Oxford Orphan Asylum, has the Greek Oraoles referred to above, published in xariasome two hundred years ago, if we remember correctly. .He first pointed out to as the soarce of the trae reading, and we accordingly drew public attention to it. .The ordinary reading gives it "gods plural. It is singular God. "The mills of Qod&o. We notice that Dr. Hermann. Bon&x,'Jn his work on : llwf Origin of the Homerio Poems," opposes the, view that the Iliad and Odyssey were the work of a single man, ami . fais essay is a succinct and highly in teresting contribution to thef ; litera ture of the controversy e0ther Ger man and English authors and scholars have taken the same view. . Mr. Symondsin his masterly "Studies of the Greek Poets," evidently leans to the same view; The arguments ; to; disprove the one authorship appear to us to be unanswerable. - " ' f Thera im trnnd nKwn frnrrt Midnn; and 'Minnesota.

We have been anxious to see how 'Edison's 'eleotrie Ifght would stand the new tests that were to be applied by Professors Rowland of Johns Hop kins University, Baltimore, and Bar ker, of ;the tMvefsity of 1 Pennsyl vania. It is understood that these gentlemen are skilled men of science and are, therefore, peculiarly qualified to brine the needed tests to bear upon the Edison iuvention. The Bal timore Hun says the tests have been very successful. We quote: "One of the lamps burned for 1,830 hours, and remained without l alary. That is to say, on the average of six hours' work per day, wnicn is aooat ine maximum or a lamp or a gas-burner's task' it did over 221 days' work. Seyeo months' regular service without needing repairs may be considered a pretty good test: TbwtrtheT lamps burned in the same way at the rate of from 98 to 210 days. It is held that- Do this basis lae electric light is demonstrated o be aot only serviceable, but considerably cheaper in cost than gas." A Mr. Tichman, of Nebraska, is asking for a patent for a" new gold machine. He claims that it rwill enable the gold mines o f -Ndrth Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, . &c, to be worked with great and increasing profits. The Richmond dispatch's Washington correspondent says of it: "The report is that the President, Secre tary Sherman, and others, hare been much impressed-wnb- tee tests made of it.

By Mr. McCorkle To aid in the construction of the Taylorsville & Wadesboro. Railroad. ' House bill No. 129, to amend the charter of the Atlanta & Charlotte Air-fjne Rairoad. ' Mr. Covington introduced a bill to amend section 1, chapter 25, Battle's Revisal. . c iTpbn motion of Mr. Jones every thing relating to House resolution 13 (a resolution of inqa'y into the truth of ohargea'? made by Mr. Turner agalrist' prominent gentlemen) was I ordered expunged from the journal. J A message,, from the Governor was read transmitting the report of the oqmmissioeers of the Western Insane Asylum, asking for an appropnatron of liOjOOtf for the completion of the root of the same. The' consideration of the railroad bill was resumed, the question beibg the amendment offered by Mr. Rich ardson, of Columbus, to require Best to pay for the transportation of the convicts and their food, and to erect the necessary stockades, etc., for their keeping. Mr. Hay spoke iu opposition to the bill at large. He said that it was bis purpose and his desire to support the road as a State work. He contended that the State and her people were not bankrupt, as had been ho often . stated by members and others. He would "also vote" for the building of the road by North Carolina. Mr. Richardson, of Columbus, said the object of this extraordinary ses sion of the Assembly was to relieve the people of North Carolina of, a heavy burden of taxation, but under the bill, as it now stands, we will not be fully relieved. Hence he had offered his amendment. He referred to the requirements: of the bill in this respect, which are that tho State is to be at all expenses for transporta tion, erection of buildings, safe keep ing ot tne convicts, etc. As it now stands the State must bear the charges for ail these things. The vote being had, the amend ment failed to be adopted, by a vote of ayes 41, nays 69. Mr. Atkinson offered au amend ment to section 18, as follows: Amend section 18 of the bill by striking out all after the word "act," in line 23j down to and including the word "act,tin line20, and insertiug in lieu thereof "and in no contingency shall the said guarantees enforce their said lien for such expenditure, either in law or in equity, until the said road shall be completed to the said town of Murphy, and if the said road shall never be completed, then said lien sballlnever be enforced but then said lien shall be regarded and treated as so much capital stock of said compa ny paid for. House adjourned. NIGHT SESSION. House resolution 18, to authorize the Governor to expend the sum of $1,500 to aid in the erection of a mon ument to commemorate the battle Of King's Mountain. On the passage of this resolution the ayes and nays were demanded, when it was adopted. The railroad bill, the special order, was then taken op, the question being the adoption, of Mr. Atkinson's amendment to section 18. Mr. Norment said he would discuss this amendment and the bill as a whole. He thought it evident that the bill would pass. He thought the bill was; ambiguous as was evident by the way it puzzled the lawyers. In this case there was no judge to de cide. He urged that the bill be put in plain language and made plain. He said the best friends of the bill knew tbatit wasnot drawn as they would like to bave it. He opposed the bill as a ddty he owed to himself and his people. . Mr. Atkinson said the object was to compel Best and Company to com plete the JJocktown branch. If it was the wish to build both lines, then vote for this amendment. It would secure the building of the Ducktown branch beyond perad venture. Mr. Clarke said he would speak on the bill on its merits. He favored this amendment. His people desired the road to be built, but wished pro per guarantees for its completion. Mr. Anderson here stated that he saw in the bill no guarantee of the completion of the Ducktown branoh of the road. Mr. Richardson, of Columbus, said he would vote for Ihe bill if it ac complished two! objects the lessen ing of the- bnrderi Of. taxation and the securing of the completion of rhe DnckttOwn ;brahcb.f'. But it did hot, in bis opinion, accomplish these ob jeOts,' and there fore Vbe : should vote against it. tie thought the bill, as drawn,- was entirely io Mr. Best's in terest. . .. . :,The vote: was then' taken on the amendment of Mrs: Atkinson, whkh was test py a vwveoi ayes iz, nays 03.
