Scales is a very earnest friend of the University. " 'He arid the ex-Governor are agreed astotHe duty of the Legislature to! provide for the maintenance of the Um versity. He quotes from the Consti tution of 1875, as requiring that "free ..1111110 shall be provided th at it shall establish a college of agriculture, of mining, of mechanics and of normal instruction in connec tion with . the a Umversity1,,, rTlje vovernor in coramenimg upon- iqis provision, says: j h "It may not be expedunt to attempt aU this at once, but the point sought to be maae is mat me coDsuiuiion, we organic law of the land, that we are aworn to' obey in its letter and spirit, demands- a .ltigbei; ana more .general- equcauon.lree of ex peDse, when practicable, for tuition through the University, to all the children of the State." : ; t ,r,. - As to the; free tuition scheme the , Constitution requires it to be carried out '-. .i' when practicable - This : time will, not come if by so doing it will tend to break down the other colleges in North Carolina, that are doing so - muchfor education and that have so many useful, and some quite; distin guished men, upon the. roll .of their graduates. There is no doubt thatjit is the d&ty of the. Legislature to be gin the work entrusted to them by the Constitution; Let the I present Legislature provide fa college of 'ag- iculture."!-That is tb sav let there be a teacher set apart for this parttc-. ulaf business. ' This will require prp4 i m i bably for mstructioH7 and apparatus $5, ai Two: ence, if ; the condition of the -country permits, - let the" next Legislature appropriate another $5,000 annually fbrtneestab lishing of a college of mi4ing' and thenTri suBsequent years let other Le gislatures createana endow othercdl- . leges.- The; population ;is increaiaff - 'and the; State Jis 7 steadily; ; grq wing in lity;todb :suoh;work.

Referring to the Agricu tural Department he says: ' "They are to investigate the best , mode of improving and extending sheep hus bandry and make their report to the Legis lature, and more particularly ; the best means of suppressing the ravages of dogs. This industry is well adaDted to our Boil and climate and .With 'proper protection and encouragement must soon become one 01 the most popular and prosperous industries 1 in the State, but it has been s&oiy neglect ed. The legislature in denning me amies of the department in this regard has at the same time merely suggested, what is justly considered the first step to wit,' the sup-; pressipn of the ravages of dogsj but unfor tunately i they contented themselves witn the suggestion and nothing" nas oeen aone to carry it into effect. The do and sheep- will no more thrive togetner, tnan me won and the lamb.

The yield of cotton in the State his increased from 73,845 bales in 1850 and 145,514 in 1860 to 889,598 in 1880. Oar tobaccos command a higher average price .than those of any other State in the Union, but rue quanity as yet is not as much by 6,000,000 pounds as it was in I860." ' He deprecates" the abandoning of agricultural pursuits by so many of . the educated young men of the State and crowding the towns for other pursuits! We are glad that the Go vernor did not overlook this impor tant fact. He says: The responsibility of investing this in dustry with new interest, making it more honorable, and thus attracting to and keep iag in it our most intelligent and best young men, rests in a good degree upon this board and the' commissioner.'' . It will not do to say j that farming does not pay. Go to Edgecombe and talk with Capt. Thigpen. Learn from him how to make a farm pay in Eastern Carolina Go to Gran ville and' talk with Dennis Tilley arid Fielding Knott; and learn how to grow rich in making fine golden to bacco. Let the young men of North Carolina stand by the old State. Let them stick to the old farms and they will find that education, when well" applied, pays admirably, even in cultivating "mother earth." But let them remember the old couplet "He who by the plough wonld thrive ! Himself must either hold or drive." , PEDAGOGY Iir TUB HOUSE, f V The Blair bill baa got before the House of Representatives. The de bate that occurred on : .Friday is in structive. Hon. Frank Hurd, one of the ablest men jn the House, and a ripe Constitutional lawyer, raised a question that stirred the Southern advocates of the Pedagogic bill. He moved'that ' the bill be referred to the Judiciary Cordmittee. for; their opinion as to the right of the Se nate to originate bills to raise reve nue and for the purpose of making large distributions for general pur poses.! .The able Representative from Ohio is thus reported in 1 the tele graphic abstract: j - J . 1 "Mr. Hurd denied the power of the Senate to originate either character of bills. : He believed that the adoption, of. the doctrine contended for by the Senate would be utter ly destructive of the object; sought by the founders of the government; which object was td:vgiv to the Representatives:' the power, of appropriating the people's money. This power was the most potent instrument against the encroachment of the Executive power." , . .... ,J, .. ; - l A gentleman from a r great South- era State is now in: Washington, and on the 22nd he wrote as follows:: , . "Hurd, according to all Democratic ; au thority and precedent, is eminently correct In his position.' Another Infamous feature cthis:inost.infamons rBill (Blairiis the astonishing spectacle of.

In -North Car-: oliria it is so, or the politicians would, riot be so 8 wif t to", ad vocatbv with; so. much of zeal the most dangerous, lh& most monstrous doctrine that in fortv years ' of ' political reading ..we have ever met with. ' In the past the' pep ple of ; North Carolina regarded the Constitution as joui . arkbf ' safety;'" It was the 2Egis of our ngnts aridthey .would denounce ; roundly .any ; man who would dare- to rob : it ; of any power or to mutilate its proportions. A fair, grammatical, stricOsnstruC-; tionj both in spirit and in 'letter, of the Sacred Instrumerit was tlie way bf bur fathers. Now Iatitudiriarian ism has taken full possession, and members of the Congress will get up and so twist the plain better of the organic law as to twist all sense out of it. . ' ' f The passage of the Blair bill 'may be received, with shouts now, but it is dearly gained indeed when it is done by destroying the Constitution and by giving it an India-rubber interpre tation that is wide enough for any po litical heresy ta: be covered by it. We have hot a ' doubt that the time will come and before the century ends when the Blair, bill precedent will be quoted as an ample authority for the perpetration of the greatest wrongs, and for the spread and pro gress of Centralization. This is rapid ly becoming a Nat ion, and its Chief Priests are Southern Democrats. The rift in the flute was its destruction. The people will groan after awhile. Men living now will hear it. If people think that railroads do not confer blessings other than by furnishing ready and easy and swift facilities for transportation : arid travel; read the; following r figures : Daring the year 1884, the Wilming ton & Weldon Railroad Company paid to parties' ur the;State o r North Carolina the sum of $3 87,5 14. 74 for wood, cross ties, timber; sundry mer jphandise Jand labor. " This; amount was expended in ' the State. . During the year 1 884, the" Wilmington,4 Co-lumbiaTand--AtutaTllailrbad er-, pended m this State $115,060.63, ma-' king over a half Smillioriv dollars "per annum paia oy r tne two roaas in North Carolina. '"Such facts as these show how important a reat line is to the welfare ;of the people livfng upon it. arid that thousands are bene fited more c less by the d istribution of such a large sum.

M-The origin of the explosion is wrspped in prof bund" mystery,' J but it is believed to have been' caused by dynamite. V 4 P. M. .The explosion, occurred. ' cloie to the Hoase.of Lords, near Westminster HalL. It is reported that the explosive was placed in the crypt . Under1 therbuilding. One policeman was hurt. iTheforca of the shock was tremendous, ; and . was; felt at a great distance., The amount "of damage ddne is veryreat. " Rumors are current at. this hour that1 another : explosion occurred at 2 o'clock tblaaftfrnoon at .the London ,Tower. ,The excitement mcreasing with every moment; and the' city is filled with flying rumorK-Therewere two explosions instead of one. as at firstjjuppoeed, at the Parliament ,, Houses. . , The. .. second came about th ree minutes after the first. One was near: the House of Commons; the other at Westminster HalL One man has been arrested near, the scene of the explosion. The detective force is hard at work now seeking further , developments, which are anxiously awaited, particularly by the peo ple in the neighborhood of Westminster Hall, '- ; 4. P. M. The rumors regarding an ex plosion at London- Town are confirmed. The outrage was the most successful which has yet been made upon any of the public buildings, since the inauguration of the present era of dynamite warfare. " The famous old- building . was crowded with visitors at the time of the explosion, and the wildest rumors are in circulation as to the number of persons who have been iu- Jured by the crime. , These rumors are bo ng carried through the city and constantly exaggerated by persons who were present at the time, and who have hurried away in all directions. Up to 4 o'clock but sixteen per sons had been officially reported as having been injured by, the explosion. None of these are reported as mortally hurt.' An attack was made on thai portion of the building known as the "White Tower," It was fairly filled with visitors at the time, and; most, if not all, of those who were known to have been hurt were moving about in the Tower at the time of the ex plosion. The " White Tower was almost completely wrecked by the force of the ex plosion, and the roof was blown off the structure. All of the' persons known to have been injured were visitors. ? " ; The police, at the moment they realized . the ' nature of the explosion, effectually barred all egress from -the Tower and, . grounds. .They are now subjecting every, person, who they, have 'succeeded in de taining by this manoeuvre, to a most rigid search, upon the theory that the attack was perpetrated by some person or. persona in side of the premises. Burgeons were promptly summoned to the assistance of the wounded, who are now receiving all of the attention practicable.
