Yesterday just as oar sanctum had been thoroughly cleansed, refitted, papered, and put in somewhat decent shape, and we were looking oonapla- cently upon the result, Dr. Ellis, Steward of the Deaf and Dumb and Blind Asylum of this city walked into oar office with two new brooms manufactured at the Asylum by the inmates, and desired that we keep the office in the same cleanly condi- I tion he then founu it. We promised j tcdoso if we could. These brooms are not surpassed in quality and in appearance by any ! that are made elsewhere, either North j or South, and reflect credit on the ui hi) a: '.mii eru or the inelitution. RFii.i tions ok Respect to the I.ate Major (Jko. W. (iUICe. The following resolutions of respect to the memorv of Major George W. Grice, 1-tte Pr. -tii.-nt of the 11. o: (j. and R iV. A. A. L.

Therefore, as a j proper expression of our feelings and j iu justice to the deceased, ' l-'iid. That in the death of t Mkj. Grice this Company has lost a most useful aod efficient officer, who, i iu the short period of his official ser I vice, had given promise of great an ' tieipated usefulness: whose integri ty, zeal, intelligence and devotion to duty was fa-t winning the confidence and esteem of all who knew iiim : this twxly a friend and co-laborer, who enjoyed their entire confidence in the discharge of their arduous duties, and this community a valued and esteemed citizen, whose kind ness of disposition and active benev olence had endeared him to a large circle of friends.

I ssane ARYi.fii.-We are indebted to Or Grissom for a copy of his an nual (the tweulieth) report of the operations of the I stitution. It appears that the total numberof admissions since the opening of the Asylum on the 22nd of February, 1S-V is 111". The total number of discharges for the same period is 880, of whom 291 were cured, 108 Im proved, 177 unimproved, and 3(4 died, leaving now under treatment 219. The whole number under treat ment for the last year was 146 males and 143 females, of whom 40 were discharged; of which 16 were cured; 5 improved 4 unimproved, 14 died, and one was not insane. In this number the percentage of recoveries was 5; of improved; 2; of unim proved 2 ; and of deaths 4 . Since the opening of the Institu te n, the cures upon admicgion have been 2-per cent The deaths upon the number under treatment have been 2i per cent for the period of twenty years. At a-iother time we will give far ther extracts from this valuable re port. One serious embarrassment to the usefulness tf the institution is about being removed by the erection of the Western Asylum at Morgan ton and Dr. Grissom only refers to the troubles of the past whilst grate fully expressing his satisfaction at the ample provision to be enjoyed at no distant days.

These doors will add much to the comfort of those having business in the eap itol, particularly to these attending ihJ Supreme Court which Is situated in the northeast wing and Is subject to the cold currents from that quarter." 1 MORNING, NOVEMBER Tucker Hall. The Hoiman En glish Opera Troupe made their first sppearance in Raleigh last night, and achieved a genuine success.- Of fenbach's celebrated Opera-Bouffe, "La Grand Duchess," was rendered in good style, and seldom have our citixeus been regaled with bo rich a musical treat. Solos, duets; trios, quartettes, choruses all were given in as perfect a manner as we can ever hope to witness in oar city. As to Miss Bailie Holman, the charming little Prima Donna of this troupe, she is the very incarnation of eoug, and masks pours as naturally from her lips as honey from thefam- ed bees of Hybla. From her first entrance she carried her audience captive, a veritable Grand Duchess. The support; was all that could be desired. Mr. Bran dial is a superb tenor, and gave the masic allotted to him with a purity of tone rarely equalled. In the third act he Introduced La Marsellaise, and sang it in a manner never before beard in this section. During the French revolution of '48, the great actress, Rachel, chanting this soul stirring sir, excited the volatile Parisians into a delirium verging on insanity. We can fancy that Brandisi, with his inimitable voice and style, could have wrought the same effect. The pom pous General Baum, with his "piff, parT, poof," found an admirable representative in Mr. Ellis Ryse. Julia Holmaa, George Barton, and the rest of this excellent Troupe, de serve praise for their valuable as sistance. To-night, the last of the Holman Troupe in this city, will be presented Lecoq's most brilliant opera "Girofle Girofla," with Sallie Holman as the Twin Sisters. This opera has been the greatest success of the past sea eon in all the European capitals. The Philadelphia Enquirer, which should be recognized as good authori ty, has the followiug to say of it: Wood's Museum was crowded to overflowing last evening to witness, for the first time in our city, Lecog's brilliant opera Girofla. Without the slightest hesitation we prouounce it the best work of the above great j writer: it being full of pith and pretty j music from beginning to end. Miss Sallie Holman us tirotle Girofla wr appeared to bet'er advantage ; her acting was superb and her sing- iug-uch as to entirely captivate the immense assemblage and draw forth from them round after round of ap- filause. The New York 7craW just y terms her "The Queen of English Opera." MNs Julia Holman as Pa ipuita shared the honors of the even ing with her i9ter. Mr. J. Brandisi and Mr. Vernon -Sydney the tenois were in capital vc-ice and were all that could be desired. Mr. El da Rvse as Mouzourk favored us with one of the most comical pieces of ac ting we ever saw bis rich bass voice being greatly admired. Mr. G. H. Barton as Bolero could not have been better. In fact the whole com pany could not be seen to better ad vantage. The choruses were precise and showed great harmony. The wardrobe was to say the least, mag nificent. The whole performance was a decided success and the Hoi mans may compliment themselves as having made the hit of the season. Mabrieix Gol. S. R.

The following from the Maryland farmer will be of interest in North Carolina, where thereis so much land thrown out of cultivation, but which can be reclaimed : The up lands want clover and plaster, after pnxl culture and some manuring.ert'ilizers or green-manuring such as plowing under rye, then peas, either one. or o would be bet ter. By such a" pr.wess these origi nally very fertile soils can be recu perated in a few years at little cost, and more surely done, than by a heavy cost of $50 to per ton for guano and other fertilizers. True it Is that a dressing of !tf bushels of lime per acre wotifcl be of great last ing benefit twmost of the soils, but the lands of this section are filled with marl and can in a majority of cases dispense with lime clover, is the grand, never failing specific. While indulging iu oar speculations as to the) renovation -of- vow .out lands, in the cheapest manner, we happened to have handed to us the last monthly report of the Agricul tural Department "of the United States, and It so completely supports our views with arguments and facts that we extract a paragraph which explains what we desire to say and so forcibly, we had rather call attention of our readers to its persual than write oat our own views and our ex perience of years gone by. The re port of the statistician, Mr. Dodge, says : "la one case in Butler County, Pennsylvania, a section of thin, gravelly land, on which it was thought no one could secure a decent living, came into the possession of German immigrants at nominal rates. They cleared off the brush, plowed, cultivated, turned under the grass crops; saved every fertilizing material available ; never duplicated a crop in five or six years' rotation, and tbat tract is now a garden, and from worthlessness has advanced to the value of $100 per acre, and is yearly becoming more productive. These owners, in some cases, have raised ' ana educated families, live comfortably, ride in carriages, and have money at interest. In other in stances in which the aid of clover has been invoked, swine-feeding in the clover fields has been made a val uable means of soil-improvement. In the South, a region which many northern writers on agricultural as sume most erroneously to be unsuit ed to grass culture, and which south ern farmers have strangely neglected as a meat-producing section for ob vious reasons, a new era is dawning, and clover and orchard-grass are in many places found to be sources of immediate and heavy profits, and of greatly increased fertility. Iu light lands of more torrid temperature the cow-pea performs quickly and inex pensively the work of amelioration assigned to red clover in argillaceous soils. It is a plant literally worth millions to the South ; possibly as good no ammonia gatherer as clover ; perhaps equal ly as good for fattening swine, and grown with greater facil ity in poorer soils.' For the Dally Xewa. The North Carolian and Virginia Christian Conference. Fraitklixtox, N. C, Nov. 24, '75. JZditor New : I give you a short account of the annual session of the North Carolina and Virginia Chris tian Conference which has just closed . This body met at Pope's Chanel, near this place, on the 19th inst., and was organized by the election of Rev. W. S. Long, of Graham, N. C, as President; Rev. D. A. Long, of Graham, N. C, as Secretary ; Rev. Peter T. Klapp, of Pittseoro, N. C, as Assistant Secretary. Thirty-eight Ministers were present, and about the same number of Loymen. Rev. W. B. Wellons, D. D., and Rev. E. W. Beale, of the Eastern Virginia Christian Conference, Rev. H. H. Gibbons, of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, and Rev. J. H. Gil breath, of the Methodist Protestant Church, were present as fraternal messengers from their respectiye Conferences. These brethren came bearing salu tations of love and fraternal greeting, which were cordially received and most heartily reciprocated. The Conference considered and adopted many important measures relating to the different departments of christian labor, among which I may ineution in particular the sub jects of Education, Missions, Sunday Schools and Temperance. The work before the body was con cluded to-day, having held, as all agree, a most pleasant and harmoni ous ses-ion. The hospitality of the community was generous and ample, and all the members leave with hearts full of gratitude for the kindness extended by the people around Pope's Chapel and Franklinton. The next session of the Conference will be held at Salem Chapel, For sytbe county, N. C. Spectator.
