WASniXGTON's B I It T n D A Y. In
informing our numerous readers that
yesterday was the birthday of Georgo
Washington, wo do not propose to
emulate the example of other papers in
regard to astronomical observations as
to the rising and going down of the
moon, or intend to arrogate to ourselve3
an exclusive knowledge of the fact upon
wnicn we now write. We are charita
ble enough to believe that almost every
body is conversant with the dictum of
the Almanac. But those few unfortu
nate souls who" were oblivious of the
fact that yesterday was the natal day
of the little boy who cut the cherry ttee
were reminded it it through the
exuberant t patriotism oi . Adjutant
General Gorman and the Keeper of the
Capxtoi McuOwan. Acting in, hearty
co-operatior, they had the flag of the
nation displayed from the staff on the
top ot the- Capitol, and by skilllul
diplomacy procured a . diminutive iron
cannon which they had placed' in the
capitol bquare, near the bronze repre
sentation of the Father ot his country.
and proceeded to salute the flag." The
cannon was an undeniable success.
What it lacked in size it made 'up in
the loudness of its discharges.
Each successive , report threw the
crowd of little nigger and white boys,
who soon collected around it, into the
most ecstatic excitement, and they testi
fied their unqualified approval of the
proceedings in various indescribable
ways. This endorsation of the demon
stration must have been peculiarly
gratilying to the officials above men ¬
tioned. It required no close observer
to detect in their faces a consciousness
of a duty well performed, and at each
outburst of applause the benevolent
smile wreathing their lips betokenbd
the satisfaction which the felt at this
mark of appreciation. We beg leave to
offer our congratulations, and to indulge
the hope that these enterprising and
patriotic gentlemen may live to celebrate
many mote twenty seconds, and ve re
warded in the same appropriate manner
In the afternoon the Raleigh Bra's
Band (colored,) took up position near
the statue, and proceeded to discourse
some excellent music. Whoever had
the selection of the nieces played has
certainly some humor and a good idea
ol the "eternal fitness of things." We
allude especially to the piece called
"Departed Days." What could be more
appropriate? The music is of a dirge
like character and suited to lament
tVe present departure fiom.the ipurity
and .honesty which characterized the
administration of affairs under. Wash
ington and his immediate successors.

Grounds, we do not have $5,000,
so it remains with the citizens not yet
called on to. say whether we shall have
another Fair or not at present. To us
the thing looksA little blue." We do
not l'ke to throw cold water on any en
terpiise, but we had just as well look at
it in a proper light and see things as
theyaie; while some are enthusiastic,
liberal and publics-spirited, others are
careless and don't care a fig one way or
the other, and are perfectly willing to
see the Fair go down. We here enter
our solemn protest against breaking it
up, and say let us go ahead and have it,
if lor no other purpose than to have a
general meeting of the farmers of the
State once a year at the Capital j We
contend that there can never be much
prosperity and advancement in agricul
ture and the mechanical arts without
yearly meetings, and an interchange of
views on these subjects.
Have not other States kept up their
Fairs for the past ' twenty years, and
have not most ot them gone far ahead
of us in improvements?. Then, why
shoud we remain so long in this dorment
condition ? Is it for the want of money
or enterprise ? It for the want of money,
let us have a little more enterprise, and
we venture the assertion that money
will soon follow.
Thirty-five hundred dollars have
already, been raised. . Five thousand
more is wanted to enable us to compete
with our sister States. Shall we revive
it, or abandon the whole project ? That
is the question. We hope all will come
to the rescue before it is too late.

Public CuABiTiESThe debate
. . . -. . "i i .
Upon this constitutional amenuuieui
yesterday in the House excited a good
deal of interest. The mutter became
divested of all partisan features, as mem
bers of both parties opposed and suppor
ted the amendment. Messrs. Jones, of
Caldwell aud Luckey, of Rowan, were
active in opposition to the measure,
while Mr. Brown, ot Mecklenburg, and
others earnestly urged its adoption.
Mr. Luckey said that'the buperinten-
dents of the Insane Asylum and Deatj
Dumb & Blind Asylums and the .chair-
in .in of Board ot Public Cnarities were
all three opposed to the proposed
amendment, and that he could not vote
lor an amendment here that he could
not vote tor at the pons ;. mat n tne
amendment passed and was submitted
separately to the people, he could not
vote lor it ; if, however, all the pro
posed amendments were all submitted
as ji whole and not separately, he would
then be compelled, as he was last ses
sion, to vote lor the whole oi mem.
