It cannot be done, unless there is a general repudiation, of all debts county, State and national, i . The cases on the court docket are numerous, but of trivial. character. The farmers are planting more largely in cotton than ever. The action of the commissioners in not granting license is not approved by a majority of the people. Truly, ' - Observer. Nurili Carolina mu m. cotton State. It A Leigh io Raleigh News-Obsei vi r. : Virginia is not classed as a cotton Slate, for not more than six counties produce any at all, and instead of raising SOjOOa-bales,? it- will prove very satisfactory to the census office if she foots up 15,000. J The cotton wao taken by - the enumerators only in a few instances, but the matter is beftg investigated and may reach 12,000 or 15,000 bales,1 but jU is ex prctedjthat 10,000 will be the limit. I have no means just now of ascertain ing how much of the 700,000 bales snipped to Norfolk should be credited V) ft orth Carolina, but 1 think it would be nearer correct to Bay 25 per cent. 1 shall not in this letter go into air argument to show this' for it woujd make it too lengthy. A little thought and attention j as to which portion of the State j produces the most cotton will suffice to convince the most credulous. i ! Cotton' is raised in seventy-five counties ot the state, lhe nine counties Wake, Johnston, I Wayne, Wilson, Jiidgecombe, JMash, Jrank lin, Halifax -and Northampton .produce 155,000 ba!es,or about 43 per cent. 1 he average of the whole State is one bale to 21 acres! while the average in the nine counties named is 2.15, making the average in the other counties very nearly 3 acres to the bale. Wake, as in number of bale?, stands highest on the yield per acre, the average being one bale to U acres. Not one county east of the Wilmington & Weldon Railroad, lying off the road, will average with these nine. Pitt comes the nearest, and reports 14,366 bales, Lenoir next, 8,144, and Greene 8,000. The yield in Greene is 2 4. acres to the bale. Anson, Mecklenburg, Richmond, Ro beaou and Union are the only coun ties not named that produce 8,000 bales and upwards. ' Anson has 11, 791, Mecklenburg 18,914; Richmond 12214, Robeson 8,739, Union 8,084. The yield per acre is below the inte rior counties. Edgecombe stands next to Wake in number j of bales, 2G,170 being produced. . The average to each county, of the nine, is up wards of 17,000 bales.

Donald Morrison, of St. Louis, and a party I of boon companions, were returning to their homes, when Morrison halted them in. front of his residence, and insisted that they should enter and lake a parting glass. Mr. Hendricks continues: "At last one of the gen tlemen suggested that mebbe Mrs. Monison might object. The Colonel seemed deeply offended. He drew himself up proudly and said: 'Now you shall come in, for . I intend to show you that I am Cassar in this house'! Scarcely had he uttered this proud declaration than a second Htory window raised, and a feminine voice, cold and cutting, - rang out upon the pale air: iYou are right, gentlemen: go home . to your wives. 1 Jl take care of Cesar 1'- Of course the party went home and Col.

Wednesday was quite buoyant, and so was Thursday till the later deal- ings, wnen tne demand subsided and prices weakened. To-day there was a further advance, the "bull" party pushing their advantage with consid erable vigor. Cotton on the spot has been active,both for export and home consumption, (notations were ad vanced l-16c. on Monday- and again on ( Thursday.

We are looking forward to the ap proaching Commencement at the University, June 1st and 2nd. with pleasure, and predict that it will be a brilliant success. Although the University Railroad is not yet finished, we will doubtless have a much larger crowd than we have ever before had, as there have been made, up toj the present time, more engage ments for board and sleeping quar ters than for many years previous to this.! Through the kindnesB of the railroad officials, and in consequence of the: untiring energy of our very efficient Chief Marshal, Mn D. E. Mclver, greatly reduced . rates have been secured on all the railroads of the State. No pains have been spared to secure an abundance of comfor table vehicles to convey visitors to Chapel Hill, and the roads are in Sx- cellent condition.-Once arrived pleas ures of the highest order await the visitor. It will be his privilege to hear that able divine and pulpit ora tor, Dr.. Wm. r. Harribon, of Wash ington City, who will preach the an nual ; isermon.

Instantly the crowd oh both decks rushed to the opposite side and their weight; together with the water shipped by the boat. caused a lurch in the opposite direction. Then it was that the disaster occurred.

One of the leading agitators of the prohibitory law in North Carolina is man whose private character we greatly admire, and whose judgment, except in one thing, we respect, fie has dwelt so much on the temperance question that he actually thinks it a sin to eat a mince-pie seasoned with wine. When laws are made in obe dience to the qualmsof such men as that, do you suppose that they can be enforced? Again, there are some whom peculiar circumstances have made, morbid on the subject of liqnor ; thev are trying to shape legislation. and, as might be supposed, it is ultra legislation, puritanical and - utterly impracticable. - : .
