The committee recommended several amendments to the bill it being framed in England which were explained by Mr. Humphrey. Mr. Ellis, of Columbus, moved that the further consideration of the bill be imstponed until Monday week. Mr. Welch opposed the motion and was surprised that the Senate were disposed to treat such an im portant matter so lightly said it would not cost North Carolina any money to build the road. He en couraged all such improvements and spoke at some length favoring the bill The question of having the bill printed took up some time. Messrs. Humphrey and Flmming spoke at length favoring the bill. Mr. Norwood said he looked at all these great moves with suspi cion he did not know whether they would carry out all they pre tend.

Mr. Brown, of Davidson, suppor ted the resolution. It was not a political matter,4 and should not be so considered. Mr. Waugh said that he had been a' member of the Legislature) for 12 vears, and he had always voted in the negative when he did not know what he was voting for. He did not know what the Indian policy of Gen. Grant is. He advised the gentleman from Davidson to fol low his example. 3Ir. Darden said that he had no idea that the resolution under dis cussion would elicit such a lengthy debate that it was simply a reso lution of request to Congress! to ad here to the plighted faith and honor ofcthe government ; and approving of the policy inaugurated by the President in the management of the Indians.

Stirring tho soil : Every observant farmer must have noticed the crust which forms on the surface of newly stirred soil after lying a few da3's to tho action of the dew3. A much heav ier crust is formed by each shower of rain that falls. Good and successful cul tivation requires that this newly-formed crust be often and repeatedly broken by the hoe, harrow, or other means. A. striking instance in proof of this fact has just been stated by an exten sive larmer. lie planted a neia oi broom corn, and, by way of banter, told the man who assisted him that each should choose a row as nearly alike as possible, and each should hoe his row, and the measured amount of crop on each should be the proof of which was hoed best. Our informant stated the result in substance as follows : " Deter mined not to be beaten, I hoed my row, well, once a week the summer through. I had not seen ir.y assistant hoe his at all, but had observed that for a long time he was up in the morning before mo. At length I found him before su-n- rise, hoeing in oroom corn, ana j. as- ed him how often be hoed it; he an swered, 'once a day, regularly.' The result of tho experiment was, his row beat mine by nearly double the amount. Annual liegi.ster. An Instructive Lesson to Poor Humanity.

Paul, the whiskey man o Person county, had 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 for his 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 been working for him, named Tom Chambers, who was track 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. W. M. Coleman, Esq., Law, Washington, D. C, Attorney at will give all necessary instructions to those persons whose claims have been rejected and who desire to re-open them for a new hearing. Sir. Coleman will have this week the first blank forms prepared under the supervision of the Commis sion.
