This Association met on Thursday last at Carey, in this coun ty, when Mr. I). B. Holland, of Wake, was elected Moderator and Mr. J. Q. Williams made Clerk. The attendance was large and the meet ing throughout of a most pleasant and harmonious character, and a large amount of important business was transacted. On Friday night. Dr. Pritchard, of this city, preached in the Baptist Church, his text being "The Blood of Christ," his sermon was one of rore excellence. On Sat urday night the same pulpit wa9 oc cupied by Rev. Mr. Hufham, of Raleigh. On Sunday morning at 11 o'clock Rev. Dr. Wiogate preached in the Seminary building, the Rev. John ston Olive p-eaehlug in the Baptist Church, and at night Dr. Wingate occupied the pulpit of the Baptist Church. The Association adjourned on Sat- urdav, to meet next year at Pieasant Grove, Wake county. Ihk Rev. J. B. Taylor. This gentleman, well kuown by the Bap tists of this city aud of this section of the State, was on Sunday installed as pastor of the Fir?t Baptist Church cf Wilmington. The Star as of the installation : Our Baptist friends had the pleas usc, yesterday nlnrning, of welcom ing their new Paster. Rev. J. B. Taylor, late Pastor of the Baptist Church at Culpepcr, Va. The cere monies incident to the installation of the reverend gentleman as Pastor of the First Baptist Church of this city will take place to-morrow (Sunday) morning, and the occasion will no doubt be one of much interest, espec ially to the membership of the church he has been called to serve, who have now for some considerable tune been without a regular Pastor. We learn that Rev. Chas. E. Taylor, of Wake Forest, Rev. J. H. Durham, of Cioidsooro, Rev. C.T. Bailey, of Raleigh, and Rev. J. R. Richardson, Home Missionary, will conduct the services. It is expected that Rev. Mr. Dnrhtm will preach the install ation sermon and the Rev. Mr. Bailey will preach in the evening. There will doubtless be a large attendance on each occasion. The Fire Last Xioht. The alarm of fire at 6:0 o'clock last eve ning was occasioned by the burning of the interior of the gas house, or so much of it as could be burned, one of tho tar recievers catching on hre causing the accident. For a short while it was feared the fire would be communicated to the combustible material iu the yard outside, but by the prompt offorta of Supt. Merrell it was gotten uuder coutrol. The dam age done was only slight, but had the fire ever gotten outside of the brick building it might have been great, as some thousand barrels of rosin Were in me yard. Low Rates for the Fayette- villeFair. The (iazette requests us to publish the following : f "Arrangements have been made (and the Raleigh papers will oblige us by giving notice of this fact) to hriug passengers from Raleigh to Fayettevilie aud rctur.i during our fair for$2 S5, aud intermediate points in proportion. This amount also in cludes a ticket into the fair. Articles will be transported on the railroad at the same rates as during the State Fair. The boat lines will bring pas sengers frorin Wilmington and in termediate points for half-fare, with a ticket of admission to the grounds; they will convey arlichs for exhibi tion free of charge." Rumored Railroad Changes. The Charlotte Observer snys the fol lowing is rumored to be the slate for the Richmond & Danville Railroad to go into effect on the 1st proximo: Col. A. S.

It is stated, also, that at the time mentioned, one conductor and four baggage masters Vv ill be removed from the service ; tbe baggage mas ters who remain on the road will run on the night trains, ami the conduc tors of the day trai.is will have to at tend to their own baggage. Jas. P. Hayes pays the highest cash prices for hides, furs, wool, beeswax, .metals, rags &c. Cefebrated 'Mount Vernon whiskey "Old Stag," at Tim Lee's. 26, 1875.

This house keeps con stantly on hand a large and excellent assortment of groceries, which they sell as low as the lowest, while in the commission business they are prepared to pay the highest cash prices fjr all produce, and work to the interest of the farmer. N. S. Harp's Exhibition at the Fair In looking over the articles on exhibition at the Fair, we were particularly attracted by the splen did show of work bv Mr. X. R. Ham. of Raleigh. Indeed we saw nothing in jvieciiamc s Wall that so plainly margeu me advance made by (south ern worKmen. The above compliment from the Louisburg Courier to our townsman, Mr. Harp, we copy with pleasure. The City Debt. A very full meeting of the Citizens' Committee and that from the Board of Alder men Avas held last night to consider the question of funding the city debt. After a full and free inter course of views, a sub-committee was appointed to draw up a plan of fund ing and the machinery necessary thereto, to be submitted at an ad journed meeting to be held Monday night next. The meeting elicited the fact that the citizens committee are in earnest in the matter, and their action gives hope that some thing tangible and acceptible will be done to relieve the city of its present embarrassment. The Constitutional Conven tion and its Work. The Raleigh correspondent of the Fayetteville Gazette, who furnished that paper during the sitting of the Convention with a series of most excellent letters, iu a recent letter to that paper has this to say of the Convention and its work : ADJOURNMENT. On Monday, at 6 p. m., as the sun closed its daily record, and set behind the hill with a modest blush of con scious greatness, the Constitutional Convention of 1S75 closed its work, aud with a modest consciousness of time well speut and of labor devoted to the maintenance and furtherance of the public weal, set its seal to the new Constitution of Xorth Carolina, and sent it forth to the sovereign peo pie to wait their decision and their plaudits, " ell done, good and faith' ful servants." The scene, iu adjourn ing, was just such as we would have expected, from the character of the men composing this historic and, in many respects, remarkable body; and when we compare it to that which closed ihe proceedings of the Conven tion of lS'Jb, the disgraceful orgies that c-lebrated the annihilation ot all that was Xorth Carolina's proud boast, we are led to hope that a new era has dawned upon our dear old State, and that the time is not far distant when she will be able to throw off the char acter given her by the wolves and vampires that inaugurated the "new order of things," and re-assume the irood, honest name that had become a proverb all over our land. The peo ple now have an opportunity of putting their heels upon the hydra of radicalism and crushing out its life. Will they do it? A few moments be fore the hour set for adjournment, Mr. Barringer introduced a lengthy document, signed by himself and numerous other Re publicans, protesting against the work of the Conrention, which was very properly tabled, as it is to be presumed that the Radical party protests, without giving them the privilege of having a long campaign document printed at the expense of the State. The hocr for adjournment arrived before the announcement of the vote to table was made, and Mr. Barringer's protest was left suspend ed between heaven and earth just tbe place where it and many Rails ought to be. After the adjournment a resolution was introduced by Gov. Reid, the old wheel-horse of the Convention, complimentary of the prompt, able, dignified and impartial conduct of Hon. Edward Ransom, the presiding officer. This compli ment, from such a source, should be appreciated by the recipient, and it was certainly deserved by him. We doubt whether there has ever been a presiding officer over a deliberative body in Xorth Carolina who has shown a greater capacity for the posi tion than Edward Ransom ; he was prompt, decided and fearless, and presided over a body that tried his power to the utmost. Xever was a presideut so severely taxed, nor has a one, in so short a time, gained such a reputation. THE CONA'ENTION'S WORK. To attempt to fully criticise and discuss in a short newspaper letter the character aud importance of all the ordinances passed, would be folly. They have been the emanation of great labor and thought, aud were prepared by honest aud intelligent men, to whom the honor of North Carolina is dearer than any personal aggrandizement. But man is human, and it is human to err; we must, therefore, expect to meet with some things iu the Convention's work that will not command ourentireand un qualified approval, while upon the whole we lend our cheerful endorse ment. Xever was there a body of more faithful public servants than the sixty-one gentlemen who composed the Democratic portion of the Con vention. They gave but idle time to idleness, being bent on their work night and day, and, when tbe fac tious opposition of the other side of the house is considered their un swerving endeavor to hinder aud delay ail kinds of legislation it is really wonderful how so much has been accomplished in a session of only thirty-one days. The amendment of most promin ence is that by which the right of suffrage is taken from FELONS. This amendment will seriously dam age our friends, the Rads, and hence met witli warm oppos'tion by them. They realized the startling truth that if persons convicted of felony the thieves, burglars, ravishers, homi cides, and such like are deprived of voting, and the ballot reserved only for the virtuous and good citizen, the sceptre will certainly depart . from their Judab, and leave them with but PRICE: FIVE CENTS. little hope of ever again getting into power in North Carolina. Oh ! what a oiow mat ordinance was to Radi calism ! Mr. Barringer seemed to uuusiuer u so, judging from the ar dent manner in which he opposed its passage. One of the crying shames of the Can by concern is that a man may be one of the most notorious thievesin the community, and, as long as he is outside of jail, his vote counts as much as yours, Mr. Editor. A felon should be made to feel his disgrace, and this amendment alone is worth the calling of the Conven tion. Our Wake Forest Letter. We invite attention to our interesting letter on our editorial page from Wake Forst College, written by our special correspondent at that point. Ihe Cincinnati Enquirer makes this unwarranted attack on the wo man kind : "The latest thing out is a private account book with a lock to it. We saw one yesterday made to oruer mr a gentleman of this city. He is In this way able to go away from home with the key of his little book inhis pocket, and feeling quite sure that his "women folks" will not "put their meddlesome noses" into his private affairs.
