The close of the National Campaign of 172, with the re election of President Jrant, is a NEW ICKV in North Carolina, the South, and the whole country, it is worth while to take note of, for it marks the beginning of aa era of perfect Peace and Reconciliation throughout the whole country, and between every section of the country. Believing that " peace hath her vic tories no less renowned than war," and that the conduct of the Southern people can he as illustrious in peace as the in-a very of her soldiery was noble, Lrnuid and thrice illustrious in the late war ; ami that in the person of Ulysses S. Grant, the soldier with whom our LICE crossed swords, we have a living ami illustrious example of the renown the soldier in war, and the victories i' the civilian in peace, THE ERA, from a Southern stand vovht has endeav ored to aid the " vict6ries" of " Peace" !v aiding the re-election of the great and illustrious citizen-soldier-Presi-tient. The first part of the mission of THE'ERA is accomplished in the re-establishment of the Republican party in power lor another four years from March next, :md now it enters upon the work of following up that mission in gathering nud preserving the fruits of the great National victory a victory significant of no North, no South, no East, no West, but of a Union restored, a people re united by tho bonds of peace and j; od will, and each and every one in the quiet enjoyment of the blessings of LIBERTY and the bounties of PROSPERITY. THE ERA is the offspring and product of the great and glorious commonwealth of NORTH CAROLINA, lor whose good and glory it is the mis sion and the privilege of tho paper, without being sectional, to " labor and to wait:' and whether in political1 niaterial,educational or social argument, it should ever bo understood that this paper is laboring only for what it deems best and to the true interests of the peo ple of this great State, in common with all the great patriotic people atyd inter ests of the Nation. Whether in its diversified character of a Family, Commercial, Political or ludustrial newspaper, THE ERA will strive to cultivate and promote all the interests of its people, and in every thing, save tho advocacy of its party principles, discard all political differ ences, and in tho interests of Peace, Reconciliation and Reform, "clasp hands" with any and all men laboring and studying for the good of their kind, and striving for the glory ol their country.

Tilings About Chapel Hill. Craig Watson of Chapel Hill takes charge of the Durham Hotel to-day. The Chapel Hillians have another railroad sensation. Gen. Hoke is there and had the route surveyed last Thurs day. It is said two Northern Railroad Companies are in competition for the privilege of building the road. Our cor respondent says': Taking all things in to consideration I think there is a rea sonable hope that a railroad will be built from, to, or through this place. Sandy Hunter has taken "French" leave of Chapel Hill. He had been doing business on John King's capital and has left King an empty money drawer to hold. It is thought he has sloped for Tennessee. Orange County. There is plenty of the good old Eng lish stock in Orange county, now. But la! Miss Bettie Stephigh would laugh at the very- idea of that old wizened up fellow who drives his two steers into town being descended from royal blood. The McCaulay family now in Orange county came from tho top of the pot. William McCaulay was the first that came from England into that county. He was very popular in Orange, so much so, that he once ran for the Legis lature and got every vote in the county save one, and that ono he advertised to give ten pounds for, if the man would just come to him and show him his face. William afterwards returned to Eng land and brought back with him his brother Matthew. He got him on board the ship that brought them over in a hogshead marked " Rum." And after he got the hogshead on the ship, he knocked tho head in, and let his brother but. And Matthew was afterwards a gallant American officer in the old rev olution. The Mr. McCauleys who now live in Orange are poor men, but you can see the stamp of worth and honesty in their faces, and though they are no polished scholars, they are men of ex cellent sense.

While not otherwise engaged he promises to do the fiddlin for the country dances. Professor Allen of Murfreesboro has brought borne his young bride, the daughter of Rev. A. M. Saunders, Pre siding Elder of the Danville (Va.,) Dis trict. The Wilmington Journal says: A private letter received in this city tells of the death, at Pittsboro, on last Saturday, of Phillip Hill, colored, at the age of 108 years. He was formerly the property of the late Dr. F. J. Hill, of this city, and was an unusually faith ful and attentive servant. Stokes county has lost one of her smartest old females.

In native intellect, her and her old maiden sister were surpassed by no females in this section of country. J. M. Paul, the whiskey man of Person countyhad his house, furniture and bedding, burnt to ashes by an in cendiary. The Milton Chronicle says: Mr. Paul was down at his distillery when the fire occurred, and thinks that but forhis eldest daughter all of his children would have been burnt up. He is perfectly well satisfied in his own mind that the torch was applied by a negro who had becu working for him, named Tpm Chambers, who was trackr ed in the snow by John A. Barnett, Fred. Furlines and "Dr." Barnett, (col ored,) from the seat of the fire to the door of his den near Roxborough. This scoundrel was arrested, and although everybody felt sure of his guilt, yet the evidence was not deemed sufficient for the law to break his neck. Fists. j&S" 3Irs. Paul Theband is Presi dent of the Foundling Asylum in New York. They come seven baskets lull per day. There are 500 wet nurses. "Sister Irene" says there are now pres ent 300 babies in the house and 1,000 out at nurse. It costs eleven thousand dol lars every week to keep up the asylum, but where the money comes from is a puzzle, if you want a baby you can send there and get any size or quality you wish. We call the attention of sis ter Irene to the advantageof advertising in the Era. ' Stimulants did it. A corres pondent writes a Virginia paper of how a Mrs. Richmond of Berry ville in Clark county, that State, committed suicide. He says : I must tell yeu qf a terrible tragedy that occurred in our midst on Sunday, about 4i p. in. the self-destruction of Mrs. Richmond, who lived in town. It has been told several times that she used a great many drugs as well as stimulants, but the druggist here would not sell them to her any longer. So her only resort was Win chester, and on Sunday it seems that she wanted to go to Winchester, but her husband would not permit her to go. She tried very hard to get something at Dr. Holves tine's Sunday afternoon, but could not get in the store. So she re turned home, and whilst her husband and children were at dinner she unfas tened her dress and placed ' a' pistol above her heart and fired, killing her self instantly. Her husband heard her fall, and ran to her immediately. ' She was just breathing her last when he got to her. She leaves four little children, and it is an additional sad feature of the affair that she was likely in two or three months to have given birth to another. It is the general opinion that she was not in her right mind for some time past." Musical and Theatrical. Newbern is having pamtomimes. The Richmond Whig says.; As wo anticipated in our notice yesterday, Madam Januschek dressed gorgeously as Lady Wedlock, and gave us a splendid representation of one of the strongest characters ever created by Charles Dickens. While courtly in manner in the society of her , proud .husband .and his guests, she was the tender mother with all cf a mother's affection when alono with Esther. She was, in fact, all through the play, a proud tilled woman, looking fair and haughty" to the world and to society, yet crushed in private with a terrible secret. : ; 5 : - - 1 , ' - Interesting . City Case Judsrc "Watts Decision NoKTH- Carolina, ) Superior Court, . Wake'County. j Fall Term, 1873. R. S. Pullen and others, Plantiffs. . against .. The Board of Commissioners of the city of Raleigh, Defendants. Battle fc Sous, Moore & Gatling, for Plaintiffs ; J. C. L. Harris, City At torney, and T. M. Argo, for City of Ral eigh. This case having been submitted by the parties upon the facts agreed with out action, and having heard the argu ments of Counsel for Plantiffs and De fendants, I decide as follows : The city of Raleigh being a municipal corporation organized and acting under a charter granted by the State, which is made part of the case agreed, claims the right under section 9 Art. VII. of the State constitution and its charter above referred to, to levy a tax upon all sol vent credits and securities held by per sons residing in said city. The Plan tiffs contend that the city authorities have no such power but can only tax property in the now limited sense, ex cluding from tho meaning of the word property the choses in action and securi ties spoken of above. The case does not contain the affida vits required by sec. 315, C. C. P. to show that tho controversy is real and the proceedings in good faith to deter mine the rights of the parties, and is otherwise imperfectly stated. But as the controversy is no doubt real and in volves questions of importance and in terest to the parties, I will proceed to decide it according to my view of the law. Tho case is : The plantiffs are citizens and residents within tho corporate limits of the city of Raleigh, over whom and their, property the authorities of said city have legal power and authority under the constitution and laws of the State. These parties own certain sol vent credits and securities upon which' the city authorities have assessed a tax for city purposes. The amount and kind of this property and tax assessed are not stated. The question is there fore presented, have the authorities of the city a right to levy a tax for city pur poses upon the solvent sredits and se curities owned by tho Plaintiffs and others in like conditions. Sec. 9, Art. 7 of tho constitution provides that "All taxes levied by any county, city, town or township shall be uniform and ad valorem upon all property iu the same except property exempt by this consti tution. It is contended for the defen dants that this is a constitutional pro vision for tho taxation of all property by the city authorities and providing further the way in which this tax shall be levied. For the plantiffs it is con tended the word property here used must be taken in its restricted sense and was ,nct intended to embrace choses in action and securities of the kind men tioned or intended herein. My Opinion is, that this section was intended to declare simply the manner in which municipal corporations should levy taxes, to wit : that they should be " uniform and advalorem," and not to declare the subjects to be taxed by them. This was to be done by other parts of the Constitution where the general sub ject of taxation was treated of and pro vided for, and by general laws passed under the Constitution by the Legisla ture on this subject. And by Sec. 4, Art. 8, a. general power is given to the Legislature to provide for the organiza tion of cities, towns, fcc., and to restrict their power of taxation, &c. This seems to give general control to the Legisla ture on the subject of municipal corpo rations, and the Legislature may under it restrict the power of taxation by these corporations as it may think proper, due regard being had to other parts of the Constitution. My Opinion, there fore, is, that "the right of the defendants to levy this tax does not depend on, and is not controlled by the said 9th Section of 7th Article of the Constitution, but must depend on the Charter, granted by the Legislature to this corporation, or the general law of the State in relation to towns, &c upon the examination of the Charter and this general law. I am of the opinion that no such power as that now claimed by tho defendants is granted by either. My decision therefore is that the Plaintiffs have judgment, that the de fendants have no right to tax solvent credits and securities, and that such tax is illegal. , S..W. Watts, J. S. C.

The following we clip from Mr. Punch's Almanac for this year : Doc tor " I am pleased to say, Mrs Fitz- browne, that I shall be able to vaccinate your baby from a very healthy child of your neighbor, Mrs Jones " Mrs Fitz- browne " Ah, dear, doctor ! . I could not permit that. We do not care to be mixed up with the Joneses in any way." The gentleman who does the An- nanias and S.iphim business on the Terre Haute Express says k that a city minister opened his front door sudden ly, and surprised a guilty-looking man who was just in the. act of depositing a neatly-covered basket on the door-step. The meeting was not rapturous7 "Ah!" said the minister, rushing out arid grasp ing the man by the collar, while he plied a heavy-soled boot vigorously un der the coat-tail of his visitor, "what" do you mean, you villain, by leaving a baby on my doorsteps ? Ah, I have you, scoundrel ! I'll show you how to aban don an infant to the cold mercies of the world." And all these remarks were punctuated by kicks. " I hain't left any baby at your door," said the man taking up the basket and lifting the cover.
