Dr. Shaffner introduced a resolution authoiizing the Secretary to give credit on his books to members who will vol untarily advauce ten dollars to assist in pajing out the accrued debt of the So ciety. Adopted. Dr. Bahnson, as Chairman ol the Committee on Anasthesia,(plain English chloroform and ether, read a lengthy report, which was on motion referred to the Committee oh Publication. Dr. Kelly read an invitation to the S' ciety from Messrs. Wallace Brothers & Shiphens to visit their Herbarium, lo cated in the town. On motion, the invi tation was accepted. The hour having arrived for the in stallation ot officers, Drs. Summered and Hines were requested to conduct the new President to the Chair. Dr. Norcorn, upon assuming the posi tion of presiding officer, returned his thanks, etc , to the Society for the honor conferred. - Dr. Whitehead, in retiring,, from the Chair, delivered one of the most beau tiful addresses, not only of the session, but that we ever listened to. The sub ject was the advancement ot medical societies, and the duties ot the profes sion in keeping pace therewith, etc., etc. lie deprecated, the idea of members of the nroiesssion dabbling in politics, as ft, it lowered the standard of the profes sion. On motion of Dr. Satchwell, ;a resos lution was adopted returning to Dr. Whitehead, the retiring Presi dent, the thanks of the Society not only for able and impartial administra tion ot his office, but tor the truly elo quent, able and instructive address just clelivereu. Dr. Satchwell further eulo lzed the adJress, and said that it should not only be recorded in the min utes ot the Convention, but extra copies ot the address should be issued for the public. Dr. Summerell moved that an addi tional number of copies ot the aadress be published lor the Society, and a copy be sent to each editor in the State with a request to notice, etc. Adopted. Dr. Foote delivered an oral essay on the puerpal state ot appoplective convul sions, citing many cases under his cb servation where the Hyperdermic Sy nnpre piovetl more benencial than any remedy he has ever used. The remarks ot Dr. Foote in the for cible, graphic style peculiar to that gen tleman, narrating his experience with the Hyperderm'C Syringe, mark i bright era in the treatment of pain, de monstrate conclu ively that with this ne. ind patent instrument the monster has li'ceived a kinsr, and that human suffering, in the almost magic reliel fol lowing its use,is at last within the grasp of the healer's art. Dr. Foote's report was received with . marked attention, and quite a number of the Society con sulted him immediately on the modus operandi of hi3 treatment, preparatory to supplying themselves with the al powerlul agent. The Dr. also threw i tew shrapnel at the systems ot "blood letting so indiscriminately practiced by some physicians. lhis led to a general discussion on the subject which was participated in by Dr. llappoldt, Lucky, Summerell Payne, Pierce and others.

The Roanoke JSeics, in its last issue, pays to our distinguished lellow townsman, Gen. W. R. Cox, the follow ing handsome and deserved compli ment, which we take pleasure in repro ducing in our columns to-day : "As public journalists, we should be unjust to the sentiment of the people with whom we live if wo failed to re flect, in our columns, some little of the esteem in which this faithful officer is held. Called to a most trying position. n atimeot great difficulty, Gen. Cox has proved himself more than equal to the delicate task. It was a most fortu nate circumstance fior our people that such a man was fodnd in such an emer- ncy. No . man? who has attend ed our Courg for the last five years but has been impressed with the fairness, intelligence and high sense ot public duty invariably, mani fested by this good officer. No one can well estimate his influence in mamtain- ng the good order of society and pro moting the harmony of all the people. We have been constantly struck with the exact impartiality which he has exr ercised towards both parties and . all colors. While he has maintained the full efficiency of his office and made the aw a terror to evil doers, air good men lere admire his singular generosity and magnanimous charity towards the err- ng and unfortunate. These remarks are suggested to us by the universal regret expressed this week by all the citizens of Northamp ton county at the fact that Gen. Cox is no longer to attend that court, the county of Northampton having been transferred to the First Circuit. We confess to a little weakness for the brave men who held out to Appo mattox, but we fully represent public opinion when we say that Gen. Cox's bearing and patriotism in those dark days have not surpassed his faithful, aole and wise discharge of duty a3 So icitorot this District. Long mav this pure, gallant and gift ed son of our State coutinue to honor. and be honored by North Carolina." "It's Me." Passing a neat little resi dence the other evening, we happened to see a man waiting at the door for admittance. At the instant a creen blind just opened a little way, and by the gas light we caught a glimpse of a pair ot brilliant eyes, and a flutter ot something white, and a bird-toned voice said: "Who's there?" "It's me," was the brief response. The eyes and the brief flutter disap peared from the window like the stars in a cloud, and we fancied, as we pass ed on, we could hear the pattering of two little feet up the stairs,winged with welcome. It was a trifle ; it all happened in an instant, but it haunted us tor an hour. It's me! Amid the iar of the city. those words fell upon the quick ear aloft, and met a glad response. It's me ! And who was ''me ?" The pride of a heart's love, no doubt ; the tree a vine w as clinging to ; the "defen der of the laUhful," in the best sense in the world. It's me ! Many there arc who would ve halt their hearts, and more than half the hopes in them, for one such re cognition in this "wide, wide world." In the directory, at the post office, he was known as A. B C. Esq.. but on that threshold, and within those ' wall's its me, and nothing more; and what more is there one would love to be ? Few of all the hearts that beat so wildly, warmly, sadly, slowly, can recognize a true soul, amid the din and darkness ot the world in that simple- but " it's me. ' As it he had said : " Now I am nothing to all the world. For I'm all the world to thee." A Convict Attempts to Escape He is Fired on Several Times and 13 Seriously if not d? at ally Woun - ded. Yesterday morning about the hour of 10, one of tne Penitentiary con victs at work in the Cook brickyaid.iust the other side oi the Holleman bridge, suddenly made a brake to make his es cape from durance vile. Not obeying an order to halt, three shots were sent after him,one of which went through his neck, laying him low. The wounded convict is a colored man, and was sen tenced to a term of years for man- laughter. His name we could not learn. We understand that the Physician examining the: wound pronounces it very serious but not necessarily fatal. The shot doing tne work was nred Dy one of the guard named Edwards, There'is another version of this affur reported, which we give without vouching lor its correctness. It is said that there was a conspiracy among this gang of convicts that at a given signal lrom this unfor tunate man, a whistle, the crowd were to rush on the few guard, overpower them and make good their escape. The whistle was sounded but the courage of the others tailed them and they did not support their leader, and he seeing the predicament in which he was placed en deavored to get away, which attempt resulted as abovestated- - Tfce wounded man was conveyed to the Penitentiary hospital and is now undergoing medical ireatment. i . o. bince the above was put in type,' we learn that the wounded con vict's name is Alonza Peterson, from Sampson county, who was incarce rated for the crime of rape, acd that Dr. W. G. Hill, the attending physician, pronounces the wound not serious. The report in regard to a preconcerted plan to escape turns out not to be true. Person Street M. E. Church Sun day School.

Our middle' section needs cheap lime to bring it into a high state of cultivation. Grasses, clover and com post are goud things, but without lime they cannot be made to perfection, and are but a temporary relief to our ex hausted lands. Give us lime at a mod erate cost, and no part of Pennsylvania i will be more productive than the oak and hickory land of M'ddle North Car olina. In the neighborhood of Newbern there are vast deposits of conglomera ted shells which yield the best quality ot lime. These beds are on navigable streams and in the midst of forests of timber. But two.things are needed to develope them and deliver them to all of our farms enterprize to quarry and introduce them and a cheap system of freights from Newbern on the railroads, Who will attend to this, and while reaping a harvest of riches, add to the wealth of the State. The 24th day of June next, observed by the Masonic lraternity as the ani- versary of St. John the Baptist, will be celebrated by the Masons in different sections of this State.
