A new im broglio has developed itself in this lo cality, and bids fair to be a matter for litigation. As will be seen from the following corresoondenee. the nrpsont mcumpent or the omce of Sunerinfcen i . - . ' i dent of Public Instruction. Prof iver, refuses to vacate the aforesaid omce to make room for the Governor's recent appointee, K. P. Battle, Esq.: Raleigh, Jan. 15th, 1873. Hon. Alexander McIver. Raleigh. Dear Sir: Having received from ills Lxceileucy, Governor Caldwell, a I vuiuiuiaaiuu JlJjpUlUllUg me DUOCriUten df-oi Public Instruction ot the State commission appointing me Suocriuten- of North Carolina, and taken the oath required by law.

Truly yours, Kemp-P. Battte Superintendent of Public Instruction. Office Sup't Pub. Instruction, ) Rnlpiwh "M n Ton 1ft Hon. Kemp P. Battle : Dear Sir I have the honor tn ro. pointment by His Excellency, Governor VaiUYYCU. Assured as 1 am, from an acquain tance with you of more than twenty years, of your eminent fitness for the duties of the office of Sunerinfpndpnfr oi ruuuc instruction, l would cheerful J? T- I ! T i . . ly surrender the office to you if I be lieved that my term of office had ex pired, or that the commission under which you claim is legal. uy the first section of Article 3 oi the state Constitution the term of omce of all officers of the Executive de partments shall commence on the first day of January next after their election ana continue until their successors are elected and qualified. By section 13 of the same Article r Tf ' th nflW - " . VAUVV of any of said officers shall be vacated by death, resignation, or otherwise, it shall be the duty of the Governor to appoint another until the disability be removed, or his successor be elected and quaanea. . An officer is one v.' ho ia ..invented with an office. Mr. Reid had not been in vested with the office, and therefore he was not an officer. Tho office ot Superintendent of Public Instruction never became the office of Mr. Reed, and therefore it was not vacated by his death or otherwise. The Constitution continues the term of the nrrsent. in. cumbent, and no vacancy hns occurred. ft . . it . .it is reasonaDie mat the Constitution should designate the person, if it has a suitaoie person on hand, to continue in office, in case the person elected dies or refuses to qualify ; and the Constitution of North Carolina does this very thing. It continues the term of the incumbent until his successor is elected and nunli. jied. No vacancy occurred, and His Excellency had no authority to grant the commission to which .you refer; and for tpat reason the commission is null and void. I, therefore, most respectfully decline iu surrenuer to you tne oltiee oi Super , mienaent or a-udiic instruction. Sincerely yours, Alexander McIver, Superintendent ot Public Instruction Death of a Centennarian. Phillip Hill, colored, died near Pittsboro, N. C, on the 11th instant, aged 108 year?. He was formerly the slave of Dr. Strong. of Sampson county, father of Oeorge v. strong, ji,sq., and aJterwards the slave of the late Doctor F. J. Hill. He walked to Pittsboro on every election aay, ana always voted the straight Democratic ticket, casting his last vote for Greeley and Brown. He was in the full enjoyment of his faculties to the day of his death, being wonderfully well preserved, and bid fair to live many years longer, but his house catch- ing on fire he made such active efforts i 11 A to subdue the flames, &c, as to com- pletely overcome him and he died in a moment. His house with its contents burned to the ground. County of Gilliam. A meeting of the friends of the proposed new county ot Gilliam was held in Henderson a day or two since.
