The following were appointed us said Committee : Drs. Satchwell, Foote, Sharpe, Wood and O'Hagan. Dr. C. Tate Murphy offered the name of Dr. Francis T.

This Committee is to reside in Raleigh, and it shall be their duty to report the death of every mem ber, making it also retrospective, so that the report of the present Committee shall include a list of the honored dead of the Society. The Committee on the Examination of Drujrjrists were discharged from the urther consideration of the subject. AFTERNOON SESSION. The Society was called to order at 3 o'clock. Dr. Whitehead in the Chair. A letter from the Medical Society of Virginia was read, asking the appoint ment ot delegates to the meeting ot that Society to be held in Norfolk,, on the 11th ot November next. The invitation was accepted, and the following delegates appointed : Drs. Thos. F. Wood, W. A. B. Norcom, ames McKee, J. jl. Summerell and G. Foote. ! On motion, the retiring President was added to the delegation. A resolution was introduced by Dr. Wood in regard to the delinquent mem bers. It provides for erasing from the roll such , members as "were dead, re moved from the State, or refuse to com ply with the requirements of the Soci ety. Drs. Wood, &harpe and Knight were appointed a uommitte ro report upon some action in regard to the resolutions "or the consideration of the Society. Photographs representing the hip dis ease, taken ty ur. sears, or l orK, were presented by Dr. Norcoja and exam- ned by many qt the members. . Oral communications being now in order, Dr. Summerell asked the opinion of the Society in regard to the use of chloral hydrate in the disease of ead colic, stating that -his experience had been satisfactory. Similar experU ence was expressed by different mem bers. Dr. Lewis read an article on extraor dinary fecundation of the womb, which was received and referred to the Com imttee on Publication. During a discussion between Doctors Norcom and Summerell,on hemorrhagic malarial fevers in the treatment ot which certain preparation of quinia and morphia !wa3, required, quite a compli ment was paid to Ihomas K. Kluttz, of Salisbury, lor his manner of preparing quinine and solutions of morphia. During the oral reports, Dr. bharpe mentioned a case of cancer in the stom ach, when, in connection, it was related that a patient in Davie county, suffer ing from this complaint, vomited a quantity ol black bugs as was revealed by a post mortem examination. Ihe Society not desirous of entering upon the question of entomology in detail, ridiculed the idea andl on motion, ad journed. An Example5 Worthy of Being Followed. Among those in this State who had secured a policy in the Security Life Insurance and Annuity Company ot New York, wras the late Dr. Archi bald Patterson, Of Richmond county, near Rockingham, who was insured for $5,000. This gentleman paid his last premium a short time before it was due, and died verv soon afterwards. The Company, upon being duly notified of the death ot Dr. P., promptly sent a check for the amount of his insurance, at the same time instructing their Gen eral Agent, Maj. R. G. Hay, to refund the last premium paid, making the sum of $5,164 to be received by the heirs of the deceased. When it is remembered that this Company has never had occasion to dispute the payment ol a single claim against it, and that it is represented in this State by such men as Maj. II. G. Hay, Prol. James Southgate, Uof Hillsboro, Maj. B. D.Williams, former Mayor of Warrenton, Jr. C. rfoDerts, Esq., of Newbern, W. H. Croom, Esq, of LaGraDge, Tho .. F. Gardner, Esq , of Wilmington, W. M. Hutson, Esq., late of South Carolina, but now ol Raleigh, ana a number ol others, we mink we may safely predict a high stand lor this institution. The Guardian Mutual Life In surance Company. We invite atten tion to the advertisement ol this popular Life Insurance Company in to-day's issue. The Guardian has a laige run o; business in this State, and its manage mpiit edves entire satisfaction to its numerous policy holders.

He will take pleasure in giv iug information as to the inducements which, his Company offer to those who RALEIGH. N. CL Post Office Business. It is said that, owing to the fact that there are still a few persons who do not under stand how to transact post office busi ness properly, the Department has issued a series of rules and regulations lor the benefit of post office patrons : " First. Never put your letter to be mailed in the letter box. (The reason for this is that if you do not hand it to the Postmaster yoUrself he will have nothing to do, and you will encourage laziness.) Second. When you hand it to him tell him "To be sure and have it go." If he don't seem to hear tell him again. (This is highly necessary, as, if you for get it, he will likely keep it a long time.) . Third Never buy postage stamps. Hand your letter to the Postmaster and and ask him if he can change a five. If he can't, tell him you'll hand it to him 1 some other time. It will not be neces sary, however, as three cents are nothing- Fourth-lt is well to ask him how long he thinks 'twill be before you get an answer. (Of course he can't tell ex actly, but get his opinion.) Fifth When the Postmaster hands out your mail don't fail to ask him 'is that all.? " (Postmasters are apt to keep back part of each person's mail, which, of course, they will not do if you ask them this question.) Sixth If your paper or an expected letter does not come, ask the Postmas ter "What do you suppose is the rea son" and tell him it's mighty curious. Tell him,you expected a letter some time ago, and it's "well to entertain him by telling him where from and what about, as it keeps him in good humor, espe cially it he is particularly busy. Seventh If you have a box, do not call out thenttrner of it, or give your name, but drum on it with your fingers. (This shows people that you have a box, and also obliges the Postmaster to take a good look at you.) Eighth If you get no mail, send your children to the office. Tell them to ask the Postmaster il he is sure there ain't nothing ? These, and a few other rules, will en able people to get along with the Post master very nicely, and 'tis well to re member and follow them. St. Mary's School. A select and highly entertained audience attended the interesting exercises at St. Mary's ast night! The, Cantata, 44 An Hour in Fairy and," wa3 beautifully rendered. The bllowing were, the impersonations : 1. Queen xif the Faries. 2. Fairy Cricket. 3. Fairy Fair. 4. Fairy Content. ' 5. Fairy True Heart. 6. Fairy Good Will. Two Flower Girls, four Maids of Honor and other attendants completed the list. The Queen wielded her scepter with true queenly grace and beauty, while ler maids of honor vied with each other in gentle allegiance to her Majesty. 1 he singing, the tableaus, the recita tions, the awarding of the crowns, etc., were all rendered in a recherche and aultlrss manner, and the spectators were deeply enteitained from the begin ning until the Close of the last scene. The chorus of "Home, Sweet Home," when the tableau of the family circle was disclosed, "Winter Scene," the trio of "Italian Minstrels ""Life's Golden Wedding Day," the "Christmas Tree," and "Good Night Chorus," sung at the close, make "An Haur in Fairy Land" so attractive that we could wish to bid adieu for a brief season to sublunary things and dwell with the fairies in dreamland. The performance reflected the high est credit upon the pupils and teachers of the excellent institution and we would be glad if some more competent pen would do justice to the delightful occasiou. A Ricn Treat. Notwithstanding the heavy fall of rain Wednesday eve ning, quite a large audience turned out to bear the address of Mr. W. II. Barnes, P. G. M. of the Grand Lodge of I. O. O. F., ol New York, and the Editor ol the Dearth and Home. Those who went were fortunate, lor it is a rare thing to hear just such a lecture as Mr. Barnes delivered. He did not undertake to discuss any particular theme,, but did clearly demonstrate the lact that he knows how to entertain, instruct and amuse an audience. He devoted, ten or ntteen minutes to a uisiory oi me Odd Fellowship, closing with a beauti ful Ode to Odd Fellowship which he Dlaved and sang. The remainder of the lecture was made up principally oi re citations some pathetic, others hide ous in the extreme which were inter persed with anecdote and song in which he is inimitable. 11 the night nad been fair he would have had an over flowing house. We learn that the Friends of Temperance have secured him to reDeat his lecture about the 5th of June. We advise all to go and hear him. They will never regret it. Salem Female Academy. We have just received the catalogue of this ex cellent Institution for 1873. This Academy was founded 1804, and is be lieved to be the oldest boarding school for young ladies in the South. It is carried on under the control and aus pices of the Moravian Church. Rev. M. E. Grunert, a gentleman of large experi ence and great erudition, is the Presi dent, and is assisted by a numerous corps of able professors and teachers. The attendance of pupils is very large, as will be seen from the following "state ment : From North Carolina 79; Geor gia 38; South Carolina 17; Virginia 13; Texas 12; Alabama 10 ; Mississippi 6 Tennessee 5 ; Arkansas 4 ; Florida 2 Louisiana 1 ; West Virginia 1; Indian Territory 1; Pennsylvania 1, and Salem, N. C, 45, making a total ol 235. The typography is very neat indeed, und reflects much credit upon the printers. Messrs. L, V. and E, T. Blum, ol Balem, Daily FRIDAY MORNING. MAY 23. 1873. Northampton Court, etc. The spring term of this Court convened on Tuesday, Judge Watts presiding. His Honor did not arrive until Tuesday morning, causing many a farmer to plod through the severe rain of Monday un necessarily. Under an act of the last Legislature, placing Northampton in the first Judicial District, this is the last term that Judge natts will preside in Northampton county, and we heard but few regrets J expressed by the good people of that county, s the change to Judge Albertson is considered a happy one. His Honor's charge to the Grand jury was qf the same order as the one delivered at Halifax ..recently, especially so much of it as treated upon Faith, Hope and Charity." Should His Honor persevere in this line, he may at an early day be ready to take orders in the Church. The dockets of the Court, both civil and State, were Tieavy, including some wo or more capital offences. The at tendance was large, considering the in clement weather, and we had the plea sure of meeting many ot the friends formed during our residence on the Roanoke. The farmers ol that section are somewhat oppressed irom tne damages recently sustained by the heavy rain and freshets, and much fear is apprehended that the "risk-all" policy of the farmer this year upon the cotton crop will prove disastrous. Should a good crop ot cotton be . made, and fair prices be obtained, the farmers of North Carolina will come out with heads erect ; but, should either the erop be short, or the price low, we may expect a disaster more fatal than that of '67, We visited some of the farms in the vicinity of Jackson, and were pleased to see them, notwithstanding the season, looking well. The great want with the farmers of the Roanoke at present is efficient labor the freshets have de moralized much ot the labor, and where the crops have been washed up, the planter, especially if working upon the share system, will find it difficult to get another crop in. Ihe Court will be occupied during the two weeks in clearing the dockets, even should the Judge think fit to con tinue the term that long. He adjourned Halifax Court on Tuesday of the second week, without lsterfering with the civil docket more than calling it up. We have a number ot amusing inci dents gleaned during our visit, which we would like to relate, but have not the room at present. We are indebted to Mr. Robert Weaver, proprietor of the Jackson Hotel, lor courtesies exteneied us, and were pleased to see him receiving such a lib eral patronage. Meeting of the Board of City CoMMissioNERS.-Last evening the Board held an adjourned meeting. All of the Commissioners were present except Messrs. Battle and Johnson. The election of policemen, &c, was, on motion ol Mr. Prairie, postpoued until Wednesday, Victor Fire Company, colored, and the colored Bucket Company were granted permission to carry their appa ratus to Newbern on their contem plated trip to that place. The Committee on Finance was gran ted further time to report. Mr. U pchurch moved that the city be lighted with gas tor one week. Alter debate, Mr. Prairie moved to lay the motion on the table. The mo tion was put and carried. Messrs. Prai rie, Gorman, Jones and Ellison voting in the affirmative and Messrs. Upchurch and Ricks in the negative. ' Mr. Gorman moved to appoint a com mittee ol three to inquire into the prac ticability ol lighting the city through some other source than the Raleigh Gas Ligat Company and report at the next meeting. The motion was carried and Messrs. Gorman, Upchurch and Ellison were appointed as said committee. Mr. Upchurch gave notice that at the next regular meeting he would intro duce a measure looking toward supply ing the city with water. I he Board adjourned to meet next Wednesday evening.

The Strike Still Progressing No Conciliation as Yet Bemween the Employer and Employee. There was no change yesterday in the appearance of the mechanics' strike for the ten hour system which has been progress ing in this city since Monday morning. In some of the shops work was carried on without any change, the employees not having come into, the wishes of the strikers,while upon many of the improve ments goicg on m the city work was en tirely suspended. As is natural under fthe circumstances, the strike is the sub ject of much comment throughout the city and various opinions are held as to tbe probable tejuiinus of the strike. Agreeable to adjournment on Wed-. nesday night, a meeting of the strikers was held in Metropolitan Hali last night lor the purpose of hearing the report of the committee appointed to wait upon the contractors. The attendance was somewhat larger than the night pre vious. In the absence of the Secretary. Ir. W. R. Richardson was called upon to act as such. Mr. (Li. stated that in accepting the office he did so thorough ly uncommitted as to the movement on loot, although he was heartily in sympa thy with everything that tended to pro mote the welfare of the mechanics of this city and of the State. Pending the report of the committee, Mr. Keith responded to calls, and stated that he was not yet in sympathy with this movement he ,did not believe it the right , way to accomplish the end desired. The committee here entered and re ported the result of their conference with the contractors, to the effect that the said contractors did not yet leel themselves called upon to consider the question of ten hours, inasmuch as the majority of their employees had sot sig nified any dissatisfaction with the pres ent system of labor that when this was done they would then be willing to consider what was best to be done. This report created much debate, it being deemed indefinite. During which James H. Harris saw fit to"go for" those who did not sympathize with the move ment. - On motion, it was ordered that the Chairman appoint a committee of twelve to again confer with the em ployers. Just here it was semi-officially stated that the contractors had 4een notified during the af ternoon by their employ ee3that they, would connect themselves with this movement, and that the con tractors would meet this evening to con sider the question. Ihe meeting adjourned to meet again to-night. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. qornTflli xewbery city granary At C5 Cents Per Bushel. Orders should be forwarded to ray 21-1 1 THOS. STANLY.

' Senator West equally with others is surprised : - Whereas, under the pretence that William P. Kellogg, , the Executive ol Louisiana, and the officers associated with him in the State Administartion, were not duly elected, certain turbulent and disorderly persons have combined together with force arid arms to resist the laws and coristituted authorities oi eaid State; and whereas it has been duly certified by the proper local au thorities and judicially determined by the inferior and supreme courts of said State, that said officers are entitled ,to hold their offices respectively and exe cute and discharge the functions thereof, and whereas Congress at its late session, upon a due consideration of the subject, tacitly recognized the Baid Executive and his associates, then and now in of fice, by refusing to take any action with respect kthereto, and whereas it is pro vided in the constitution of the United States, that the United States shall pro tect every State In this Union on appli cation of the Legislature, or of the Ex ecutive, when the Legislature can not be convened, i against do mestic violence; and r whereas, it is provided in the laws ; qi the United States, that in all cases of insurrection in any State, or obstruction to the laws thereol, it shall be lawful for the Presi dent of the United States on the appli cation ol the legislature of said State, or the Executive when the legislature cannot be convened, to call lorth the militia oi any other State or States, and to employ such part of the land or na val forces as shall be judged necessary lor the purpose of suppressing such in surrection, or causing the laws to be duly executed, and whereas, the t legis lature ot thud btate is not now in session and cannot be convened in time to meet the present emergency, and the execu tive of said State, under section 4, ar ticle 7th of the Constitution ot the United States and the laws passed in pursuance thereof, has therefore made application to me for nuch part of the military lorce of the -United States as may be necessary and adequate to pro tect said State and the citizens thereol against domestic violence and to en- DA1L1 NiSWiS.
