Williams, Esq., of this city, which bill was finally referred to the Judiciary Committee. This' bill contemplates transferring to Mr. Williams any legal right the State may have in the 8,000 acres of land purchased- iu Harnett county in 1868 by the State as part ot the intended Penitentiary tract, for the payment of which the State' issued one hundred $1,000 bonds, 56 of these bonds being sold to Mr. Williams lor $28,000, which bonds Mr. Williams still hold. The argument is that the said bonds having been declared illegal by the Supreme Court, and the only actual monies having been paid by Mr. Wil liams, the State investing only the said bonds, Mr. Williams was entitled, so far as the btate was concerned, to all interest it . may have in said lands. It will be remembered by the reader that the purchase ot this land by the State from Mr. J. D. Pruyn cre ated considerable comment and feeling in the State at the time, but the public had lost sight of the matter until thus reproduced. From the tenor of the dis cussion yesterday, it would seem that the Legislature intended yielding the State's claims, if any it has, to Mr. Wil liams, as he is the only actual sufferer from the transaction. The land is probably not worth $1 per acre. During the consideration in the . Sen ate yesterday of a question concerning the "pulling down of certain wooden houses in Goldsboro, Harris, of Wake, urged that the doing of this might Honor to Wnon Honor is Due. A distinguished Representative of the present General Assembly hands us the following communication for publica tion, which we willinglyjgive space to : Mr. Editor: Qn the night of the alarm occasioned .by the accidental burning out of one of the chimneys cf the Capital, one ot the firemen, as the Fire Companies were tugging up Fay etteville street, was heard to say to his comrades: . " Pull up 1 pull up ! : the Capital is on fire I the loss 1 the loss 1 " All honor to the unknown fireman, and to his honorable fellows,for the deep interest manifested in the safety of our proud Capitol. May they long live to behold its broad dome unscathed by the devouring element which so often brings to ruin the finest specimens of man's architecture. ' It is gratifying to know that the citizens of Raleigh have such a deep personal interest in the proud old Capitol, which is the common property as well as the pride and boast of all the citizens of our good old North State. Long may it stand a blessing to the city of Oaks, an honor to the State, and the citadel of justice and liberty, within whose granite walls shall originate counsels of wisdom which shall lead us on to peace and prosperity. A Countryman. Dead Body Found.

The dead man was recognized "He had not spoken in a party sense, a3 one Dr. Taylor, known in that scc- nor did he acknowledge that every bill tion as a root or Indian doctor. coming from the Republican side was right the Republican party had done many foolish things within the last few years." A rather amusing spat took place in the Senate during the consideration of a bill vesterday incorporating the House of Representatives yesterday. New Jersey is proud of a woman weighing 272 pounds in her neck-ribbon, A husband can readily foot the bills cf a wife, who is not afraid of being seen footing the stockings of her husband.

The Proprietor of a Boarding House in this city had occasion to leave the city yesterday for a trip to Granville, and reauested one ot our honorable Senators, whom he regarded as the safest of the male members of hi3 house hold, to keep an eye to his interests du ring" his absence, at the same time stating there were four grass widows in the house. The Senator regarded the responsibility too heavy, and immedi ately changed his quarters. Movements of the Bible Agent. The Rev. P. A. Strobel, Bible Agent for the State, preached in the Presbyte rian Church at Pittsboro, in Chatham county, on Sunday morning the 19th January. At the close of the sermon, he made a brief Bible address, and a collection was taken .up. In the afternoon, he addressed the Freed men in their own Church. These people appointed a committee to assist in the work of supplying the destitu tion amongst their own class. At uigbt the Chatham county Bible Society held ' its anniversary at the Methodist Church. The Hon. II. A London presided. Prayer was offered by the Rev. William Lincberry, of the Baptist Church. The Agent delivered a lengthly address, after which a collec tion was taken up. The election of officers resulted thus : Hon. H. A. London, President. ; Rev. William Lineberry, Vice Presi- dent. N. A. Ramsay, Cor. Secretary. . A. G. Headen, Treasurer and Depositary. Executive Committee J. A. Wo mack, William A.Nash, G. W. Thomp son, Stephen Hanley and John W. Hatch. The Executive Committee gave the Agent an order for upwards of $100 worth of books on which they paid him nearly $50; having a credit balance of $01 at the Bible House, the debt of the Society will be small. A grant was solicited from the Parent Society, as the destitution in the county is very great there having been no efforts made in the Bible work since 1860. The work of canvassing and Bupplyiug the county is to be com menced promptly and vigorously prosecuted. This Society commences the new year with encouraging pros Builders The body showed no marks of vios lence ; and as the deceased was an in offensive person, it i3 reasonably sup posed that he died from the effects of his own medicine.

How, Now ? - We copy the subjoined article from the Friend of Temperance, not because of its pleasant reflection on our friend Ramsay, the "Good Templar" Lecturer, but as a "good thing." Bro. Whitaker, though a worthy Minister ol the Gospel, has a good deal of the old Giraffe in him yet. He says: "Ambitious of notoriety, a youth of this city, informs the world through the Press dispatches, that he has interview ed Gen. Grant and the other heads of Departments, with regard to the "new temperance movement in North Carolina." "We hope Friends of Tempeianee will not become alarmed on account of this interview, for we have no idea that President Grant will interfere with our Order, or that the Heads of Depart ments will urge him to make us adopt the "new movement." Let U3 continue in our quiet, humble, yet earnest efforts to advance the Gospel of Temperance, patiently awaiting the appearance ot the President's next communication to Congress, which, ot course.'will inform that body and the world what the "new County op Gilliam. The Commit tee on Propositions and Grievances to whom was referred the petition, for the formation of a new county out of por tions of Granville, Franklin and War ren, heard the friends and opponents of the measure at length on luesdayat ternoon. The Senate Committee, as will be seen from our report of legisla tive proceedings, reported yesterday morning adversely to the formation of said county. The general feeling und temper of the present Legislature seems to be against the advisability of form ing new counties in any section of the State. - - Personal. We noticed the arrival in this city last night of Mr.A.S Pendleton andlady, formerly Mrs. V. L. Jones, ol Warrenton,who were married yesterday. They are going on a tour South for a short time, after which Mrs. Ptndu ton will return to our city to fill her engagement as teacher in the Baptist Seminary. Mr. Pendleton being engaged in an extensive agency for the Southern States, will make Raleigh his leadquirters. St. Patrick's Bay.
