He leaves a wife and a large family of children. Good Journalism. The highest toned journalism in the United States is found in the Religious press of North Carolina. The JVe bytcriatti at.

A dispatch to the New York TV- j bune says, that during the past few days a member of the cabinet has said, that the President has become thoroughly in earnest in regard to Louisiana affairs, and that the diffi culties of that State would speedily be brought to a close, that he had returned with a full determination of taking some decisive action. His adhesion to Kellogg's; assump tion is more marked than ever and he will go to any length and author- i ity to sustain it. On Saturday eve ning the President had a long con sultation with General' Sherman, Attorney General Williams and Secretary Robeson, at which the New Orleans troubles wWe thor oughly discussed, and highhanded measures were suggested to which the President attentively! listened,' and which will probably! be carried out before the last of the present week. m . The administration is j unable to understand why. Mr. Kejlogg does not make a requisition for federal troops, as it is claimed! lhe has a perfect right to do in the absence of the legislature, to maintain peace and assist the civil authorities in the administration of theflaws. It is said that he is a proper judge to determine whether there is a condi tion of society requiring! the inter ference of the army, and j Jhat any aid he might require would be promptly furnished so Tar as the President is concerned. ,Itl is not the President's intention jto take any energetic action until jthis re quisition is made by Kellogg, and it is hoped he will make a demand without further delay. As jsoon as the requisition is made, thd Presi ident will issue a proclamation in most positive language admonish ing the citizens of Louis ana to peace, depose the McEnery govern ment and proclaiming Kellogg as the lawful Governor, and j announc ing the Intention of the .executive to sustain Kellogg with the whole? military force of the country if ne cessary. This proclamation is to be accompanied with an orderjto send all available troops to report; to Gen. Emory at New Orleans. The proc lamation will be -in such language that it will be susceptiblcf of no doubtful meaning, and it will con vey as plain as words can thp deter mination of the President a above set forth. The action proposed, it is said, meets the hearty app f oval of the Attorney uenerai. The Bankrupt Act. .The fol lowing will be found of interest those concerned : To the Members of the Bar of the Congressional District of North Caro Una . Genti emex: Many letters have been roetivrxi asking I u formation npon the I present stntuf nf the Uankrnnt law. under rti-ent nnpublisbed amendments and Judicial deeisiijus. For reply to these Inquiries, 1 respectfully submit the following brief abstract of the law, as it now stands upon the subject of dis charge, exemptioiiM, &c., Jtc. i 1st. All debts contracted pi tor to January 1, 1SC9, and all security debts, and debts not proven in bankruptcy, which have been contracted since tl at date, arc discharged without reference to assets. 2nd. On all debts contracted since Jan uary 1, 1800, on which the bankrupt is liable an principal dtbtor, and which are actually proven against tho estate, the assets in the bands of tho assignee must equal 50 per cent., or the same propor tion in number and value of these cred- ! itont must assent i charge. SJ. Lischargo will be granted from debts mentioned in paragraph 1, without reference to those mentioned in para graph 2.' (See Acts of July 27, 1SGS, and July 14, 1370.) 4th. There is exempt and set apart to the petitioner in bankruptcy, $1,000 of personal property, and real estate for a Homestead to the value of $1,000, in fee simple. Total exemptions $2,000. All of which property is free and clear from all debts contracted prior to bankruptcy, wnetner ttie same te evidenced bv a note, or oen account or Judgment ob tained, and execution issued and levied thereon, or otherwise. (Seo acts of June 8, 1872, and March 3d, 1873.) The recent decision of tho Supreme Court of the United States in the Georeia ! -a-se, declaring the Homestead provis- J ions of the , Constitution of that State i unconstitutional hi so far as it relates j debts contracted prior to its adoption, hai annihilated tho Homestead and 1 IrsoHl Property exemptions in North i Carolina, except through the bankrupt- j cy courts. j In view of the demand which must j follow the recent liberal amendments to ' the lUnkrupt Act, and the decision of the Supreme Court destroying the Homestead under State laws, I have ;re,uu-T lr"Pare u "a pnnwa j ruled and endorsed in very neat style, '! all the forms liable to be used in bank- 1 ruteV by lhe oflkeM of tl)C Cmirt or the 1 profeSHion. They will be sold at?i.50 f per duplicate sot, and forwarded on re ceipt of price, by mail, post paid, or by express as dii ected. To facilitate business and promote speedy discharges, it is suggested that the sum of $100, be deposited with the petition in bankruptcy, and when so done the Register is authorized and will guarantee that no further sum shall be required of the petitioner in ordinary proceedings, and the deficiency found upon the taxation of costs will be de ducted pro rata from the costs of the several officers of court.

To obviate this difficulty physi cians have long sought.for an agent that would Purge, Purify and Strengthen ' At one and tbe same time. Their research has at last ed by a discovery which fully realizes the fondest desires of tho medical fac ulty, and which is iustlv rpmrdH a the most important triumph that Phar macy has ever achieved.

The Dailt Graphic is the title of a newspaper, published in New York, which is achieving the most remarkable journalistic success ever chronicled. It is an eight-pago evening -pajer (threo editions daily), elegantly printed, ami conducted by the ablest editorial talent attainable. Asa newspaper the Daily Graphic stands inj the lirst rank, and contains t regularly ' j The Very Latest and Fullest ev from all Parts of the World. Its great feature consists in the fact , that it is not only a newspaper, but an . illustrated newspaper as well. Four of: its pages are lilied 'with choice' reading-' matter telegrams, editorials, general ! and local news, items, gossip, and cor- : respondenco 011 the freshest and most! interesting topics. Tho remaining four i pages consist of SPLENDID ILLCSTKATIO.-VS, j executed in the most faultless and ar- j j tistic style, and portraying accurately j j and fully all leading events within twen- j j ty-four hours after their occurrence. j Those who have made journalism a , j study, and fully appreciate the great enterprise manifested in the collection j and publication of news by the aid of; I tho telegraph, steam presses, and the i j development of journalistic talent, have i been fond of ad vancing the theory that; the next advance in that held woti Id re sult in a newspaper furnishing in its ; regular issues pictures of all current j prominent events. That theory is a theory no longer ; the newspaper of the i future is the newspaper of to-day, and j that paper is the Daily Graphic. The processes w hich render tbis marvellous achievement an existing fact are the re sult of the most careful study and an endless variety of experiments, gradu ally perfected during tho past twelve 3'ears. They depend upon improve ments in lithography and the applica- j tion of tho photographic camera. By .' their aid a picture is engraved and made ; ready to print in from twenty minutes i to two hours. Costly and elaborate i plates, works of arts, scenes of interest, ; are reproduced and pictured forth with j equal facility and the most scrupulous j fidelity. Illustrations of leading events ' are engraved and prepared for the press j even before the accompanying written j narrative or descri)tion leaves the hands ! of the compositor. ; For the proper practical working of i so great an enterprise, THE GRAPHIC COMPANY was formed, with. A Capital of $500,000 in Gold, ! months and months before the lirst is sue of the Daily Graphic, tho most extensive prorww'Sjions were made, and to-day THK GRAPHIC COMPANY has The Largest and Mot Complete .cwspaper Establishment in the United States. In the great work of illustrating the events of the day an extensive corps of the best known ud most accomplished artists are constantly engaged. The Daily Graphic aims to be in its strictest sense a newspaper. Striving always to be just and truthful, it dis cusses all questions independently and impartially. It is not the organ of any party, sect or creed. It is always high- toned, and contains nothing to onend any taste. Its contents give it an im- rn ariM.ntar nVr th"nlt f.hirtn. mense advantage over the "old fashion ed" papers. The annual subscriber gets A Pictorial History of the Year, a volume of twenty-four hundred pages, constituting a valuable record of events aud a graphie panorama of our timeand progress. It possesses not merelj' a lo cal interest, but is a paper for every' reader of the language. It is, emphati cally, The Paper for the Household. Price, 12 per year, or f3 for 3 months. Address.
