We learn that since the election of Mon day, May 3rd, two out of the four bar rooms in Smithville have closed, fearing to incur the risk of selling intoxicating liquors in the face of the expressed will of the people. The other two continue open, the proprietors determining to test the legality of the election, they and their friends be lieving it to have been illegal because it was held on the first Monday in May in stead of the first Thursday In June, as pro vided by aa amendment to the original act of the General Assembly. We learn that the friends of prohibition have legal advice to the effect that the expression of the will of the people is the main thing contempla ted by the law, and mere technicalities will not be allowed to obstruct it.

Dr. Payne, Chairman of the Committee on Finance, made a report, from which we glean that the books of the Treasurer bad been examined and found correct and wel kept; that there was 5 a ballance in the Treasury at last session of $229 85; receipts since, $491 60; amount expended, $420 00; leaving a balance now on hand of $300 75.

Dr. Long asked for information as to whether a rule adopted at Newbern and fixing $5 00 as fee for examination of can didates for life insurance was meant to ap ply to secret orders having a beneficiary, endowment, or assurance fund, and it was decided as the sense of the Convention that the rule was not intended to apply in these instances, but merely as.to regular life in surances.and that the fee in the cases men tioned shall be left to the option of the examiner.

Dr. Satchwell introduced the following i Whereas, It was the original intent, and HP MAY 12, 1880. js the spirit and meaning of the act incor porating this Society and establishing the State Board of Medical Examiners, that eli gibility to membership should consist in holding a certificate of qualifications from -said Board; therefore, ' Resolved, That in lieu of section 2d, arti cle 32d, of the constitution, defining the el igibility to membership, the following shall be and is hereby substituted: Sec. 2d. The permanent members of the Society shall consist of such regular physi cians as shall have complied with the law of the State embraced in an "act to incor porate the Medical Society of the State of North Carolina, and for the establishment of a- Medical Board of Examiners," and shall receive two-thirds of the votes of those present. Unanimously adopted. The Secretary read a communication fjom the Edgecombe County Medical So ciety, the substance of which is to punish, by a fine of $50, or imprisonment for not less than ninety days, any one found guilty of the misdemeanor of practicing medicine, or surgery in this State contrary to the statute which incorporated the State Medi cal Society and established the State Board of Medical Examiners. That statute makes it a misdemeanor for any one to practice medicine and surgery in North Carolina who has not a license from such Board, un less such person was engaged in practice prior to the passage of the law io question. The Edgecombe Society also asks for the passage of a law creating a board to examine druggists in this State, and also for a law requiring that in all cases of death, before burial, the certificate of a physician shall be furnished, and when no physician at tended, that the certificate of a Justice of the Peace should bo furnished. . The whole subject was referred to a special committee of five, to report at this session. The following are the committee: Drs. S. S. Satchwell, John McDonald, W. T. Ennett, Thos. J. Moore and H. M. Alford. Dr. Summerell, chairman of the Com mittee on Credentials, reported the follow, ing gentlemen as duly accredited delegates to the Convention: Edgecombe County Medical Society Drs. N. J. Pittman and J. H. Baker; Rowan County Medical So ciety Drs. Hill and McLellan; New Han over Medical Association Drs. W. G. Thomas, H. S. Norcom and Edward King. Dr. Carr read a paper on epithelioma. Dr. Satchwell moved that Dr. Carr's paper, and all others that might be subse quently read, be referred to Committee on Publication. Several cases of different kinds were re ported and discussed during the remainder of the afternoon. On motion of Dr. Carr, the Society ad journed to meet this morning at 9 o'clock. Cutting serape Arrest of the Princl pals in the Difficulty. A difficulty occurred at a shoe shop on Dock street, between Front and Water, yesterday afternoon, during which James P. Spann was severely cut by a youth scarcely grown, by the name of Charles King. Spann's version of the difficulty is to the effect that work was pressing in the shop, and when he spoke of going to dinner his employer, George Robinson, said that with the view of saving time he would send for his dinner. Spann agreed to the pro position, and Charles King was called and told to go after it. After being absent for some time King returned empty-handed, upon which Spann wanted to know some thing about his dinner. King told him he would get it in good time; but this did not satisfy the hungry man, and he told King to go back again and bring his dinner; to which King retorted that he was not going to be ordered about by him (Spann). S. replied that it was the "boss's" orders, not his. In the meantime King had seized a knife, and as the last words were spoken he made a lunge at Spann, who stepped back wards.and at the same moment King was seized from behind by Robinson, the proprie tor of the shop, and pulled slightly back wards. By this means a blow apparently aimed by King at the body of his antago nist fell short of its mark, or rather below it, and penetrated Spann's right and left thighs, the wound in the lat ter being a very severe one, extending en tirely across the fore part of the thigh and to the depth of about one inch. A call was made for the police, and Officer Stone re sponded, arresting Charles King and taking him to the guard house. The case will probably come up before the Mayor this morning. ' The Patrons of mercy. The colored benevolent organization known as the Patrons of Mercy celebrated their sixth anniversary yesterday by a pa rade through all the principal streets of the city, dressed in the regalia of their order and beaded by a brass band. At St. Luke's A. M. E. Zion church, corner of Seventh and Church streets, the. anniversary cere monies took place, the introductory address being delivered by Joseph E. Sampson, and the anniversary address by James W. Green, Sr., the occasion being enlivened during the intervals by vocal and instru mental music. The "Patrons" made a very creditable display. BX. A gentleman passing along Front street, yesterday afternoon, soon after the Medi cal Convention adjourned, stopped a mo ment in front of the Purcell House and shouted, "How are you, doctor?" He said he never before had so many gentlemen 'to take off their hats to him at once. He con cluded it was a powerful good day for medi cusses. . Excursion from smithville. Another large excursion party came to this city from Smithville yesterday, and also spent a few hours very . pleasantly at Hilton, returning home on the steamer Passport during the afternoon. They seemed to be enjoyipgthemselves immensely. A -T WHOLE NO. 3,976 To-Day Indications.

A large congregation assembled last eight at .the First Baptist Church in attendance on the meetings now in progress there. Rev.

It was an nounced at the conclusion of the services that Dr. Teasdale would preach every night this week. He will also give a "Bible Reading" this morning and each morning during the week, commencing at 9 o'clock and lasting one hour.

Fire in Fender County. - A barn and stable on the farm of Mr. John Ormsby, of Grant Township, Pender county, was. destroyed by fire Monday night last, and with the buildings two horses, several vehicles, harness, farming tools and a quantity of corn and forage. The fire occurred about 12 o'clock at night and is supposed to have been caused by an incendiary. There was no insurance, and the loss is a severe one to Mr. Ormsby. The Fayetteville Delegates. Glorious and historic old Fayetteville is well represented in the Medical Conven tion by Drs. T. D. Haigb, James A. McRae, W.C. McDuffle, J. W. McNeill and O. P. Robinson. It speaks well for the health of Fayetteville that so many of her leading physicians can leave home at the same time. Most of tthe above named gentlemen are accompanied by all or a portion of their families. Our Visitors. The people of Wilmington are glad to see in our city so fine a representation of the medical profession of North Carolina. The Convention now holding its session here is largely attended, and taking the delegates as a whole, intellectually and physically, they will compare favorably with any similar body of men we have ever seen in the State.
