United States District Court
Tuesday, June 10th, 1873. The mem
bers of the Bar in attendance reorganiz
ed themselves into a meeting yesterday
morning in accordance with a previous
agreement for the purpose of receiving
the report of the Committee on Resolu
tions concerning the death of Chief
Justice Chase. Ilor: B. F. Moore, the
Chairman, mnounced the reorganization
of the meeting and. its readiness to
receive the report of the Committee.
Judge Battle, on the part ot the Com
mittee, arose and submitted the follow
ing preamble and resolutions :
The members of the Bar of thejCircuit
Court of the United States for the
Eastern District of North Carolina now
in session, have heard with deep regret
of the death of Hon. Salmon P. Chase,
Chief Justice of the Unitted States.
Stricken down by a i&tal malady he left
the highest seat of justice with
a reputation for eminent ability
and stern integrity which won
.the . confidence, the esteem and
and the admiration of his fellow coun
trymen. It is enough that it may be
said of him that the place which had
been illustrated by the varied attain
ments, the profound legal learning and
genius of a Jay, a Rutledge, an Ells
worth, a Marshall and a Taney, was
none the less worthily filled by him.
:' As a testimonial cf the high regard
of this meeting for his public and pri
vate worth and as a just and becoming
tribute to his memoiy.
Resolved, 1st. That in the death ot
Chief Justice Salmon Portland Chase
the Bench and Bar of the Court of the
Unitedtates, and particularly of the
Bench and.Bar of this Circuit, as well
as the" whole' people of the country,
have sustained a loss not easily to be
repaired.
2d. Jtesolced, That his Honors the
presiding Judge ot this Court be re
spectfully "requested to send a copy of
these proceedings to the lamily ot the
deceased, and to express to them the
sincere condolence of the members of
this meeting on the heavy bereavement
which hus befallen them.
3d. Resolved, That' the District At
torney of this District be requested to
present these proceedings to the Circuit
Court now in session, and to ask that
they may be entered upon its records.
Col. Fuller moved the adoption of the
resolutions. Before the motion was sub
mitted, Judge Merrimon arose and pro
nounced a handsome eulogy, in which
he said that the name of Chief Justice
Chase was a shining example of what an
honest heaft and intelligent mind could
accomplish, and would 'Continue -to-live
in thje history ol the countiy. His char
acter was worthy of emulation, and his
life a noble illustration of the practical
workings of our Governramt. He was
also1 an eminently good man, whose acts
mere characterized by the highest integ
rity of purpose.
Col. Carter, of Washington, N. C,
followed and delivered one of the most
glowing eulogies on theeath of Judge
Chase which it has been our good lor
tune to listen to in a long while. We
regret that our limited space will not
justify its publication.
Hon. B. F. Moore, the Chairman, re
lated some interesting reminiscences of
his personal relations with Judge Chase,
and dwelt in patriotic terms upon the
sympathies expressed by the lamented
jurist for the people of the South in
their present misfortunes.
The resolutions were then unanimous
ly adopted and the meeting adjourned.
Upon the assembling of the Court, U.
S. District Attorney Badger arose and
requested hat the resolutions of the
meeting be spread upon the records of
the Court. The Court concurred in the
resolutions, and Judges Brooks and
Bond each delivered brief but effective
addresses on the death and public ser
vices of Judge Chase, whicn closed the
proceedings.

of Merrimon's Bone Phosphate, a quan
tity of this guano, which, upon appli
cation, wa3 lound to be worthless. Upon
an analysis of the B ne Phosphate by
Professor Kerr, at the instance of Mr.
Bledsoe, it was Bhown to he useless as a
fertilizer, and contained none ot the in
gredients which are calculated to enrich
land. A similar analysis by Professor
Liebig, of Baltimore, also ' established
the worthletsness of this guano, demon
strating, that as a fertilizer, it was not
superior to common sand. Mr. Bledsoe
refused to pay for the guano, and O. P.
Merrimon cc Co., then instituted a suit

Filth still accumulates in the streets
and no measures taken to prevent or re

do something for'the sanitary condition
of the city? .
As We Heard It. About eighteen
months ago a man by thejname of Carri
gan with a wife and three children came
to the city and located in a "remote
section of the Eastern Ward." He
seemed to be what is termed in ordinary
parliance a ''jack at all: trades," but
when sober,which was a rare occurrence,
he devoted the most ol his time to the
mending of umbrella1. Jarrigan when
drunk was said to be very abusive to his
wife, and as the family were brought up
in the Catholic Church i she frequently
applied to Father McNarjnara the Cath
olic Priest, of this city for protection,
not only from the abusive language, but
from the lash of her husband. Father
McNamara paid O-JCa.-i nal visits to
these wandering sheep otj his fiock, but
was never able to prevail upon the
brutal husband to desist from his inhu
man treatment to his family'.
Finally, Carrigan absconded from the
city leaving his family upofr, the cold
charities of the world.
After the lapse of several months and
no tidiDgs from the absent husband,
Mrs. Carrigan concluded to take a trip
herself, telling one of her neighbors
that she was going in search of her
husband, and asked her to take care of
her children till her return, which
would be on the following Wednesday
morning; that she had enough proviso
ions, &c, to last them until that time.
The good lady tODk the children ; the
piovisions gave out before Wednesday ;
Thursday and Friday came and passed,
but no mother came. It ;was also whis
pered in the neighborhood that Mrs.
Carrigan intended the same act of her
husband, and had left the country tor
Ireland. The lady in charge of the
childien was unable to support them,
and as Father McNamara was the only
visitor of the family, she sent for him
and told him of her inability to keep
them longer, and it he did not do
something for them she would be com
pelled i to put them out! in the street.
Upon the promise of Father McNamara
to send provisions, she promised to keep
them till Monday, Father M. stating to
"her that the mother might return by
that time.
Monday came, but the mother did
not. Father M. went out to see after
his charge, when the lady, who had
charge of the children, 'informed him
that she would no longer keep them,
and he might then consider them as in
the street. He took them in his buggy,
brough them to Judge Bunting, of the
Probate Court, obtained the proper
indentures tor the relief of abandoned
children, which is the binding out till
the age of" twenty-one, carried them to
his little farm near the city, and placed
them under his own care and protection
M'ith other Catholic orphan children,
that had fallen to him under Bomcwhat
similar circumstances.
Saturday last, the mother ot the
childien teturned to the city, and im
mediately applied to Father Mc
Nanamara for her offspring. lie refuses
to give them up for several reasons, the
most important of which the woman is
a dissolute, drunken sot, and he regards
it a christian duty to take these chil
dren, and raise them up in the way they
shoud go, so long as the law recognises
him as their guardian. ' .
Raleigh Manufactures. About
ten days ago we published an article
under the above head, in which we used
the views of a correspondent iu regard
to the superior meirts of the late Mr.
Pirsson as a Piano Manufacturer. Mr.
W7. II. Vaughn, also a Piano Manufac
turer, is ot the opinion that our corres
pondent, A. D. did him injustice in the
irticle and very properly asks a reply
through the same medium. We insert
with pleasure Mr. Vaughan's vindica
tion of himself ; '
Editor D ail u News.- In the Daily
News cl about ten days ago, my atten
tion was directed to an article under
the heading of "Raleigh Manufacturies,"
n which a communication signed A. D.
comendatory of thelate JamesPirsson as
a supeiior mechanic in his line, was in
cluded. I am willing to add my hum
ble testimony to that ot A. D. in pro
nouncing Mr. Pirsson , a Aery superior
mec '.anic, and will heartily endorse all
that is said in that particular by him
but the writer while extolling the merits
ol one, sees fit, (whether or not to make
his argument stronger ; I am unable to
say) to thrust a dagger in order to crip-
)le another in the same trade.
In ills communication, A. D. speaks
of a Piano that had been used at St.
Mary's school, and says that "its action
) ad , been tampered with by some con
temptible person who. does not know
what a Piano is." As I am the regular-
y employed Piano tuner for St. Mury's,
and have- been for a number of years.
the unkind, (not to say low and undig
nified) reference is intended for me. The
Piano he refers to as being sold by Mr.
Pirsson to St. Mary's, and upon which
the repairs were so successfully per
formed, required torty new strings in
four mouths after it was sent to the
Seminary; eight of the hammers soon
afterwards Jell off, and ''hard upon" lol
lowed the splitting of the Sound Board
xrom these facts it will be readily seen
by any musician, what this ''extra fine
Piano' (?) was when it was bought by
Dr. bmede.--. i;
In regard to my capacity to tune and
repair Pianos, I have permission to refer
to gentlemen of the profession who are
critics : rrotess..r Bowman, m Peace In
stitute ; Dr Smedes, of St. Marys ; Prof.
F. W. Watts, of Baltimore, and a num
ber ol others. I have in my possession
now, the written recommendation of
Prof. Bowman, that as the regular tuner
of Peace Institute, I keep his eight
Pianos in good order.
So much now for this "new-fledged"
ujack-of all-trades" critic, who seems as
little capacitated for his new avocation
as his svecess in others have shown.
Yours, &c,
W. H. Vaugiian.

The North Carolina Railroad-
Calvin Graves, James lJ. Dobbin and

ville Statesman, noticing our recent ar
ticle in relation to the passage of ;the
Central Railroad charteiun 1848, claims
for James C. Dobbin fend Alexander
Murchison equal credit with Calvin
dm-rrna tl ! ! I A 1 1 ,
ica mi me scuunug me cnarier.
We Would not detract to the slightest
extent from the credit due to those dis
tinguished representatives of Cumber
land. We know that the charter re
ferred to was detrimental to the interests
of Fayetteville, and that Cumberland,
in common wito otner localities not im
mediately to be benefited by the char
ter, most generously surrendered every
thing for the time being for the general
good. It is true, however, that Fayette
ville was not entirely lorgotten at the
time, for an appropriation was made at
the same session of $80,000 tor the
Plank Road trom that place to Salem,
the expectation being that a Rail
road would, - after while, take
the place of the Plank ioad. Fayette
ville was thus assured, as far as it could
then be done, ot an enterprise that
would tap thegCentral Road, and draw
thence to her a part of the trade of the
Northwestern counties.
The Legislature of 1848 was almost
equally divided politically in both
branches. The Senate wa3 tied as be
tween the Whigs and Democrats, and
a week elapsed before Mr. Graves was
elected Speaker over Col. Joyuer. A num
ber ot ballots took place in the House
before that body was organized by the
election of Mr. Gilliam as Speaker, and
was accomplished only when Mr. Dob
bin patriotically withdrew from the
contest. This left Mr. Dobbin and Mr.
Stanly on the floor of the House as lead
ers of their respective parties in the
great cause of internal improvements;
while in the Senate this cause was sus
tained and pressed by such men as
Joyner, Gilmer, Patterson, Thomas,
Ashe, and many others who might be
mentioned. The pressure was
intense and continued for the
Richmond and Danville charter,
then called the Yadkin and
Danville Railroad, which asked no ap-
propriatioUy but simply the right to con
struct the work. The charter for the
Central Road was deemed utterly hostile
to that enterprise, now called the Pied
mont Road. The Mecklenburg country,
the great We&t to a considerable extent,
and the Stokes. Rockingham and Cas
well regions, which Mr. Graves in part
represented, were deeply concerned for
the Piedmont line from Danville to
Charlotte, and opposed to the Central
line. It is probable that nearly every
constituent that Mr. Graves had, was
opposed to the casting vote whlch he
gave. He knew that, by giving it, he
would consign himself, as he did, for the
residue of his days to private life. He
felt that many of his own party would
misunderstand him, would ' denounce
him and persecute him, which they did.
But he looted with steady gaze to the
great interests of posterity, and, rising
to the demands ol the occasion, he gave
the vote, the appropriation was secured,
and the road was built. But for
Graves, in vain would have been
the efforts and sacrifices of the patriots ot
both parties in both Houses for this
great work. We feel, while anxious to
do justice to all, that we have claimed
for Calvin Graves nothing more than he
deserves. Monuments ot granite, or
marble, or brass amount to little. They
but, image forth what is in the heart.
They perish in the course of time, but
ever as the engine thunders over plain
and through gorge from the mountains
to the sea, will the name of Graves and
the noble band of patriots who voted
for tht charter of. the Central Road be
gratefully remembered by our people.

Von Airm, the Germao Ambassador, has
betn re-called because he made unneces

The Lynchburg Republican, in speak
ing of General James H. Williams, of
Winchester, who is prominently spoken
of in connection with the nomination
for Attorney-General, says : ! '
4 At the breaking out of the war Gen
eral Williams was a member of tbe
Iowa Legislature ;;f rom the city of
Dubuque. Times became exciting, and
finally the General's love of the glori
ous Union became a matter of doubt
with his fellow-members. To test his de
votion, a resolution was passed requiring
him to sing the "Star-Spangled Ban
ner" in the Representative Hall, which
would have done credit to the most
celebrated tenor. Not satisfied with
this exhibition of his .lealtv. General
Williams then offered a resolution ap
propriating 7,000,000 with r;hich to
arm and equip the gallant sons"6t Iowa,
(knowing that most of it would be
stole by quartermasters.) Thns con
vinced of hia loyalty, our friend was re
leased from a close survei. lance, taking
advantage of which fact he made tracks
for his old mother Virginia, in whose
service he was a gallant soldier. '
