' . . ' A FineHBalldlnc;. -. .. ; During our late visit to Raleigh we took occasion to visit the new government build ing erected there) and which embraces a postofilce, a Fedeal Court room. Revenue Department, - District Attorney's office, Marshal's office, office of Register in Bank ruptcy, and various other apartments for the use of different officials. The building is in charge of Col. Jno. A. McDonald, who kindly conducted' us through the premises. It is built upon a solid concrete foundation. The granite used iu the base of the building was obtained from Warren county, and that used in the body of the same from Rowan county, near Salisbury. The entire building is heated by a furnace in the basement, which consumes one hun dred and twenty tons of coal annually. The various rooms are supplied with hot and cold water, and it takes seven hundred and fifty thousand gallons of water to fill the pipes; a force-pump being used to force the water up to two large tanks in the attic, which contain about fifty tons. Tbe fur nace runs only about seven months in the. year, but the pumps are kept going every day. Capt. W. W. White, Sr.u is the Engineer in charge. The postofilce de partment, which is presided over by ex Gov. Holden, is supplied with all the mod ern improvements and conveniences, including 780 lock-boxes and 50 drawers and a handsome writing desk ia the cor ridor for tbe use of the public in directing letters, etc., such as was recently placed in our postofilce. Tbe furniture in all the departments is of solid black walnut, and is kept in excellent order. The building, we understand, cost the U. S. government upwards of $300,000. We hope to see such a building here be fore many years, tbe first installment of $65,000 having been voted for that purpose. "me Brea Evidently Had It." There was a called meeting of the anti Custom House faction of the Republicans held at the old market last night, but the "renegades," as Chairman W. H. Moore, (col.,) called some of bis audience, were so vociferous that tbey wouldn't allow him to be heard. Ha continued to speak, how ever, and decided upon every motion put by himself that ' the ayes evideatly bad it," without giving the noes au opportunity to vote. Finally the other faction started an opposition speaking a few feet away, and elevated Wm. Tccuniseb Cutlar, (also col.,) as orator. Tecumseh the red man held the crowd enchained awhile with hia persuasive eloquence, when they drifted to the other stand to listen to the stern array of facts presented by tbe dark browed Othello of the party. While the Moore was declaring that "the eyes evi dently bad it," some of the Tecumeeh crowd began throwing stones, one of which hit a gentleman a bystander on the nose. He didn'i belong to either faction, but feeling him;e'.f singled out for a "hopeless mi nority," quietly and peacefully withdrew. Moore finally retired with his band of music and his followers, in evident disgust, and the rival faction shortly after dis persed. Departure or a Lunatic. Dr. Wm. N.

Dr. Baird says the young man was formerly pretty wild, and that on one occasion he was riding on top of a freight car when he accidentally fell off, tbe fall resulting in breaking one arm and crushing tbe bone of the other, which necessitated amputation. In this fall it is supposed that he received an inju ry to bis head, which is the cause of his present mental derangement. Dr. J. C. Walker, Superintendent of Health, accom panied Dr. Baird to the Poor House yester day morning, at 5 o'clock, to secure posses sion of the unfortunate lunatic, when he was placed under the proper restraints and taken to the depot, leaviog on the regular "train for tbe North at 6.50 A.

SEMI-CENTENNIAL 8TATEMENT. It is fifty years since the business of Messrs. B. & T. Fair banks & Co., scale manufacturers, was established, and in celebrating their semi centennial anniversa ry, they have the satisfaction of knowing,that, out of a little business established in 1830 in Northern Vermont, there has grown up an industry which now reaches to all parts of the world. The scales bearing the Fairbanks' stamp are as well known to day In Moscow, in Hong Kong, in Bombay, in Lon don, as in the cities of our own country. The principle established at the outset by the manufacturers of Fairbanks' Scales that nothing but perfect scales, irrespective of their cost, should ever leave the factory has been followed out to the present time, and the result has been that each year has seen an increasing demand for the Fairbanks1 standard.
