In. the Senate yester day the principal matter under discus sion was the Agricultural bill, intro duced by Mr. Norwood, of Orange. The bill provides for the appointment of two.Statc Commissioners, whose du ty it shall be to go into every county of the State and instruct 'the farmers in the general improvements in agiicul ture. Mr. Merriiuon offered an amend ment that the pay of these Commis sioners should be taken from the appro: priation already made for the Geologi cal. Bureau. The discussion on this amendment was lengthy and quite interesting. The Senate adjourned before any action was taken on the bill, and it will come up aain to-day as unfinished business. The special order lor the Senate was the consideration of the Gilliam county bill. Ou this bill Col. Cunningham, the able Senator from Person, made his longest and best speech of the session. From consideration the tact that seve ral more bills of the same nature are pending, several members have asked us to publish the Senator's remarks in lull, which we propose to do in a day or two.

Rand, in Panther Creek Township, in this coun tv. some nine miles south of this city, was destroyed by fire. Nothing was saved furniture, wearing apparel and everything in the house were burned. . A large amount of provisions, stored an an out-building, were also consumed. The loss is estimated at fmm 3.000'to Sl.OOO. and there is no insurance unon the property. Nothing is known of the origination of the fire Mr. R. has the earnest sympathy of a large number of mends, and we sin rnro.lv hone his losses may soon be j k made up.

Mr. S. on behalf ot" the Board of Managers of the old North Carolina Bible Society,and of the friends of the Bible cause generally in the State, asked Dr; Lacy's acceptance of the Bible as a token of the high apprecia tion in which he was held by his breth ren in the ministry and by the commu nity generally, and as a fitting expres sion of the obligation under which he had placed to that good cause, through a long series of years. It was meet that this presentation should be made in the Peace Institute, a seat of learning, the name of one, with whom Dr. L. had been long associated as an Elder of the church, ot which he had been Pastor. It was proper too that this act should be performed id tne presence of the pupils of this Institute, that they may learn how a ; lite ol piety and useful- ' 1 lit.- ness, sucn as ne naci ica, orings a rich reward ; hot only in the peace and comfort which fill the heart of the Chris tian, but in the honors which "gather around the " hoary head1' when found "walking m the waysot righteousness. The speaker assured Dr. L. on behalf of himself and those whom he represented, of their mo3t ardent wishes for his health and spiritual comfort, and his future happiness. The venerable Dr, Lacy responded under much emotion. He was surprised and almost unnerved at this unexpected visit from his friends, and received with a grateful heart this token of their kind regard and confidence.

House bill for the improvement of agriculture was taken up. The bill provides for the appointment of two commissioners, tec, (heretofore stated.) Mr. Norwood auvocated the passage of the bill as of great importance to the people of the State, and at some length stated the advantages that would result from it. - '"- Mr. Merrimon opposed the bill from the fact he did not believe the com missioners, proposed to bo appointed, could possibly perform the duties assigned by them in the time prescribed in the bill.- He favored. -the section of the bill incorporating in our public schools an agricultural feature, but otherwise thought the bill defective, Mr. Worth was glad to come to the support of the Senator from Orange in the passageof this bill. The bill proposes as one of the proposed . Commissioners. Mr. Sampson,ol Guiliord, who has done more good towards the development ol agriculture than every Agricultural or Geological Society ever organized in the State. He thought the passage of the bill conducive to the general good cf the people, and he would support it. Mr. Merrimon offered un amendment providing that the salaries of the pro posed Commissioners be paid out ol the f und appropriated to the Geological survey. Mr. Morehead, of; Rockingham, was in favor of the original bbl, but would not support it if Mr. Merrimon's amend ment was adopted, lie proceeded to show that the people and press had failed to support this important branch of our industries. The repre sentatives of the people, from the Exe cutive down, had -exhibited a wonderful lack of interest in this matter, and he regarded it as a shame and outrage He fayored the' full publication of the Geological reports as tending to - ad vance the agricultural interests 'of our State ; referred to the great good that had been accomplished by ih(i publica tion of Professor Genth's report of an inspection of our minerals, sail, climate, fcc. and which was paid lor uj tne ap propriation that is now proposea to ue reduced. &c. Mr. Morehead continued at considerable length in favor of ex tending rather than diminishing the appropriation lor the uenelit ol dis seminating a geological Knowieage oi our State. Mr. Love replied to Mr. Morehead, in which he took to task the present State Geologise, or rather the ofncial conduct of this ofaccr. He was unwil- g for appropria tions where no good therefrom resulted. At the conclusion of Mr. Love's remarks, the "President announced that the hour had arrived for the consideration of the Special Order t .which was the bill for 'the establish ment of the countv ot Gilhamon its second reading.
