'Afar full di l-4 i"..4..M4- Senate, It laidori tlie table. -Whatever uey be thought it tilt; provisions of Mr, Berry's bill, lie ia entitled to the gratitude of t lie true friends of Ik Slate, forbi indefatigable effort in two sessions ot tin General Aiweinbljj to. promote and suetsin the credit ot the Statu. . ' ' Cut. Cowan, tbe able member ot the House . from New Hanover, baa brought forward the second measure to appreciate the State credit and to provide tor the payment of interestxlue. It i a subject on which be ita reflected much, and bi report and bill from the committee which he has presented, strike out directly the i only scheme which can undoubtedly effect tbs object. It is nothing more nor lees than to meet by taxation tin StateV interest, Tbs bill provides for the payment of the interest on the entire nnrepudiated debt; the interest due prior to the lstdsj of January, 1808, to be paid or funded is lionds ot the Btate at'thelr par value, and then lo be regularly, met when due by tax atiori. II conteoda that this can be done, by simply doubling the amount ot tax already sessed by the Revenue bill of the I'ublic Trea surer for tlw present year, end trebling it, here after. ' , t . .i: - We regard the tax proposed by tbe Revenue bill as intrinsically lighter and fairer s t gen eral rule, thau heretofore. Property la taxctM for 1867 at ad valorem at only one-fifth of one percent, or $i on every $1000,, For lStlsat ihreo-tentiisof one percent, or ft on the 11000. To meet tlie State's interest, fa addition to the ordinary expenses of the govcruntentyft Is con tended that this tax will hare to be increased in ratio which can be easily borne by the tax payers. The maintenance ot the pntiHc credit, is so essential. to the preset Ttionof private credit And the progress and rcmuH'ation of the State nd people, it apcars to us, no citizen who feels any concern in sucii'mattcrs', can hesitate ta give his entire endorsement to any. scheme to effect it, which lies aft all within the means and ability of the people. ' The equitable division of the tax anion all cUmcs, Is all that is' needed to bring it wilbia the means of the people.. The improvement of tbe public credit, will most aasuryrlty work profitably to ell classes, ad wbrwc-e fetutii agairi to th spirit of paying, the energy anil enterprise which it wit exrtte, will anorn amply the meana to Py- Ii instance, the rmprove metit of the State credit ' can be eflccted bJ the, payment ot ;rntil! tax, so as lo give market and demaml tor our internal Improve ment bonds, at once the circulation of currency in the State will be doubled, and every one knows the effect ot a supply of circulation upon the feeling and energice of the people. The bill will be up for discussion in tlie House to-night, and -we -uutt nirh nnrjrjntafjte facie win Eej elicited, m will satisfy the Iglnlature of onr ability to pay, and the necessity tor arranging to do it at once. . Night Sessions. With all due delerence to the judgment of the General Assembly, we must Stiggtmt, tint the policy which iusists upon night sessions of the Legislature, is in our judgment, not well considered.' The people evidently prefer thst what la done should be well done, rather than that much should be atteinpdr-d and little well done. Legislator should not be hurried - eool and clt-nf beads are essential to safe and wise legislation. Hence, oue session a day from 9 o'clock, A. M. to 3 V. M. would be far better than two sessions, and. theu Hjere would be aa little time left for cominitteeNvork, reflection, recreation anil rest,' as would be safe, itf'feiiir ble. We regard the mint Important work of legislators to tie commit tee-work. It is doubt ful if any bill (houb.be passed Iwfore invcKti gated by a committee.

In this view we hailed wwh pleasure the North Carolina plan of Houthern StaUrHnien, "Bii also we spoke of Gen.

Whether tbe national legislature act in this way or not, we invoke anon the part of the South a continuance of disposition to await the consummation ot events here, and until then tocamly consider them in consistence with their generally expressed view.to bear with for titude the inflictions that may be imposed, anil to determihe in tbe end in accordance with n full sense or what, all thing considered, comport will honor, principle, and policy. : We see no other course lor them t pursue in view of the doaht and uncertainty of correc tion oi tne current wrong by tbe people of the North. Tbe Republican party ia so much ia the leading string ot politicians that the unti ring counsel of reason, the dictate of hnmani ty, the continued depression of business, the oppressiveness of on unequal and grinding tax ation, tbe bait in financial movements, and even n geueral condition of bankruptcy itself, may lie used as pretexts, in connection With a thous and and one other thing known to tbe chicane of politicians, to still more inflame a mislead ed people to aggravate the measure of woes of Jhe Houthern people. Confiscation, and Heaven only know what more, may be in the womb of the lutere I remap the ' sanguinary Instruc tions of Messrs. Forney, Butler and Colfax may take practical snap in the proposed three ar; miea to march through, the South to barn, kill, nd pontes tbe land. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. But in our view no effort should lie pretermitted, no time lost, no sacrifice be cared f.ir.on rttjj a, part . t)fJjatesmeBte-.rctrtwx the. utterly destructive tendency of public attain. The Senate action is certainly a step in tli direction of ritrlit from the condition of thick larknrs that for ttm shrouded the land by tlie extraordinary and execrable action of tlie Ilonse in the case of tbe (state of Louisiana. We are to iudge ot the action of the Senate only by tbe words of tbe bill passed, There were no speeches from tha Republican, aide to show anything as to the spirit that actuated their acceptance of the Sherman bill. It dif fers for tbe better from the House measure of infamy in that it give the power of appoint ment of general lo control in the South to tbe President. No sentence of death nor imprison ment can be executed without hi approval. In requiring universal suffrage for negrom, it does not withhold it from white men. Why mav not Congress yet adopt the North Carolina plan of impartial suffrage fur the South, which would allow negroes to vote "Upon a property qualification or that of reading nd writing I Why may it not modify Its meas ures so a to abrogate that portion .ot the con stitutional amendment which proscribe the best citizen in th South from tbe power to tinld Olftce t V f From ths lew lork World. ' ''"', " Tha Sherman Disunion Scheme, ' Tbe Sherman substitute for Stevens's "decla ration of war" against the South, passed the Senate yesterday morning.- This new scheme really contains nothing novel, but differs from the House bill In several important particular : ' (1) In giving the power to appoint military satrap to the President, instead of to General Gfank (3) In including the so-called Blaine amendment, that is, the Reconstruction Commit tee' constitutional amendment, as a part of the scheme, (ti) In allow! ng tb.buance of a JU tea ' iorpui writ; and (4) in providing a ma chinery of reconstruction which will make it Im possible for tne Southern State to get back into tbe Union before the next Presidential election. This last consideration is the real animus of nil these bills. Both House and Senate, are atrreed to undo all .that baa been done for the Is st two yearn, in the way of restoration, and to provide a machinery which will keep the South ern State unrepresented either fa Congress or the Electoral College for two years longer, Tlif ., imte; . . .. - n. . pkctiow o. 1 uat wnen tne people o any one That when the penpU of shy one Pt aaM rebel States ehaUJbaveJfarmrtl .t,fnnti Tution anil government in conformity with the -".it..!

I read his paper, the Standard, j I wa edocsted by Hold i was all the young Democracy ot the State, in tlie faith and doctrine of "Stats Right and Secession." I had confidence inhia then; he wrote sharply, and well then, just lilte he doe how, on the.other side. I believed ii bim and thought be would lead me right 1 was ready to have gone with him (I had toe much confidence in him) in 185(1, when he ad vised ui to seewte If Fremont was elected, and in 1800, when Mr. Lincoln was elected and lis, W.TWJIolden my aid party leader, aigneiitse ohlinance of cecessinn, said it wai all right I believe he said aomething about "our sacn right," and bade me go and make good wiu my musket what he had done with bis pea. 1 was fool enough to go that was all.
