RALEIGH, N.
ROCKINGHAM COUNTY.
The Superior Court Judge Tourgee
WentAvorth and Reidrille Gen
eral Items.
The Spring Term of the Superior
Court for Rockingham county is now in
session at Wentworth, the county seat
We were present in attendance upon its
session on Monday and Tuesday, the
two first days, and had an opportunity
of witnessing the striking contrast be
tween the general appearance oi a west
ern court room with that of the eastern
counties we have been visiting. Though
the court was opened on Monday even
ing and much business transacted, yet
the jury was not called until Tuesday
mornins.
While the jury was beinsr called. Col.
Watt, of Caswell, asked that a certain
man be excused from serving, as he was
a coach maker and repairer, in the
town of Wentworth. This being an
excuse oi the highest dig-nity, the Judge
replied certainly, of course, and inti
mated that halt the visitoi-3 in twn
that came onwheels could not get back
lome withnnt. .s;i;tnnfrt frnm thf toIipp'
repairer, such was the condition of the
roads. The Judge Droceeded to charge
the Grand Jury, which by theway was
decidedly one of the 'mostinteUigent
ooking juries we have seen since the
Spring Courts commenced. Both the
Grand Jury and Petit Jury were white,
which was thepiiuc'pal contrasting
feature with'trur Eastern Courts.
The charge of Judge Tourgee was an
able document, entirely void of super
fluous language and directed mainlv to
the points of law likely to arise before
the body. The most important trial of
Tuesday was that of a bastardy case, in
which much interest was manifested.
Solicitor Bulla was assisted in the
prosecution of the eighteen year old de
endant by Messrs. Staples and Boyd,
and the delense was ably conducted by
the Messrs Scales. The examination of
witnesses was especially inteiesinir as
will readily be seen when we say one
was introduced'upon the stand that was
scarcely three months old.
Several important cases (two lor mur
der) will be tried this week.

Heating tiie Capitol. It is be re
gretted that the Legislature, at its last
session, failed to . make provision for
heating the Capitol by a modern beating
apparatus. The question was brought
to the attention ot the Legislature by
resolution and a committee appointed
to examine into the feasibility of the
project. The committee, we learn,
made extensive inquiry, and besides ex
amining the apparatus used at the Lu
natic Asylum and the Deaf and Dumb
Institution, called to their aid the best
mechanical judgment of the city. They
made a lengthy report favoring the pro
ject, and recommended the appropria
tion of $10,000 to purchase the appa-d
ratus and fixtures, and to pay. formats

petent mechanics judged thatMt would
not cost over that amounttoinsert the
latest and most"approveer heating ap
paratus into every room ot the
Capitol, and therefjy do away w'th
the old fashioned fire-places, and the
numerous retinue of wood-cutters,
firc-leeder ind drones politely called
servants that now lounge leisure
ly in "and about the offices of the CaDi-
tol, and in the halls during the sessions
of the General Assembly. Persons
acquainted with the working of steam
heaters estimated that the outside cost
of running" a heater during the entire
winter would not exceed '1,200. The
committee'ascertained that the present
cost ot heating the building exceeded
$a,000 annually, and was poorly done
at that. The halls are exceedingly
chilly during the winter months, the
usual time they are occupied, aud more
than one member of the Legislature in
years gone by, who have died Irom that
bauclul disease, consumption, affirmed
that the seeds of the diseases Were con
tracted while representing their con
stituencies in the halls at the Capitol.

Hexky W. Conn eii. The announce
ment of the death of Henry W. Conner
will send a thrill of pain to many a
heart in North Carolina. A gallant
soldier lor four years, he never recovered
from the effect of his wounds and dis
ease contracted -in camp. When wc
first knew him, he was upon crutches,
but with a fund of joyous humor that
rendered him the most pppular man of
his class at the University of North
Carolina. His' friends in Lincoln atd
Mecklenburg, his class-mates, and the
members of his club, will long keep
green in their hearts the memory of
Henry W.Conner. We append the fol
lowing account of this sad occurrence,
which we take from the columns of an
exchange :
Early Monday morning, Mr. II. W.
Conner a uatiye, and resident of Char
lotte, North Carolina, died at the St.
Clair Hotel, North Calvert street, under
circumstances peculiarly sad and dis
tressing. Mr. Connej was a merchant,
and arrived in this city ou the 7th inst.
for the purpose of replenishing his stock
of troods. lie was somewhat subject
to pulmonary coin plaints, and was suf
fering Irom o severe cold, which heneg-
ected until Wednesday of last week,
when lie was compciled to take bis bed
and the professional services of Proles-
sor vv alien procured, cniortunateiy
the disease, which was soon developed
nto typhoid pneumonia, had made such
nroads on his system that the best med
ical advice was of no avail, and he died
is above stated. Both telegraphic
tnd mail communications were
used to inform his relatives
of. his cond'tion, but from the fact t hat
Mr. Com er was the last survivingmem-
ber of his laiuily, with the exception of
a sister, residing in jSevv iork. no rela
tive or -.friend was at las bedside' to
soothe his list moments, his brother in-
aw not reaching the city until some
hours alter his deith
Mr. Conner was about 27 years of age.
He was a single man andNyas .much bc-
oved in the community where, he re
,ided, on account o! his genial, and
pleasant mauneis, and his high orderpf
attainments. Ilts remains were to-daV
placed in the mausoleum at Grcenmount,
with a view to being removed to his
1 ite home on a suitable occasion.. The
lather ol the deceased, bearing the same
name, represented the district in Notth
Carolina in the lower House ot" Congress
from the years 1821 to 1811, when he
declined a re-election.
A Commendable' Action and'a
WoiiTHY Man. On Wednesday night
it will be remembered that a rather
severe wind storm prevailed thioughout
t '.lis belt of country. Dining the pre
valence of this storm, the mail train on
the Western Railroad approached Fay
etteville, and when at lull speed, in a
few miles of the town, a light on the
track caused the engineer to blow for
the break 3. The 'train- was brought to
a halt, aud it was discovered that a large
pine tree had been blown' dowu - across
the track. The position of the tree was
discovered about a half an hour before
train time by Geo. McKay, an old col
ored man living in the neighborhood.
George at once appreciated the difficulty
ot the situatiou, and immediately kin-
died a fire near the track, and. ran home
lor his axe, and v. hen the train halted,
on iiccount of the fire, George was found
hard at work cuttiog the tree in two in
order to clear tne tracic. i he night was
densely black, and had it not been for
George's discovery and precautions to
stop the train, a serious loss to both life
and propei ty wouta. have occurred. We
hope the railroad authorities will give
George a substantial token of their ap
preciation of his good service upon this
occasiou.
