iTim-Messrs. Speaker, Allen At-
Mr. Editor : In your paper of the 6tU of Becenv
ber la a Communication from Economy to the
Legislature, in which are estimates of the average
expenses, per term, of the County" and Superior
Courts. These estimates are contrasted with tiew
of showing the importanee and propriety of taking
from the County Courts, trial by Jury, on the
score of saving, money. My object ia. to show that
" Economy" has fallen into some errors.
He estimates the extra pay to Clerks, Sheriffs,
&c. for the four County Court Terms, at $140, and
the extra pay to the same officers for a Superior
Court at $35; and thus he concludes that there will
be an average saving to each County of $105, and
to the State, of $8,085, by the adoption of the
proposed system. Now a conformity to the Gover
nor's recommend ition will give us seven Courts,
each year, instead of six, (as is now the case) in ev
ery County. Then, will these officers have to per
form less labor ? Will they have to attend fewer
Courts? Nay, will not the Superior Court Clerks
and Sheriffs at least have more to attend? Such a
change then, cannot materially affect the amount
of labor which these officers will have to perform for
their Counties, by virtue of their offices, and conse
quently their pay for ex officio services, will not be
reduced. It is true, that the Sheriffs will be saved
the trouble of summoning Jurors for three Courts.
This part of their duty however, is deemed inconsi
derable, and is always easily performed. There
fore nothing will be saved here.
Again, he estimates the pay to Justices for the
four County Courts at $IG0, and the pay to Judge
aud Solicitor for a Superior Court at $110; and
thus he concludes that there will be an average sa
ving to each County of $50 ; and to the State of
$3,850, by the adoption of this economical system.
Now, in many of the Counties, the Justices of the
Courts cost nothing. Those Counties only pay
which have chosen to adopt the special Court sys
tem. Thus you see that those Counties which have
not adopted this srstem, instead of saving $50, will
absolutely lose SI 10, by this same beautiful saving
plan which is now proposed. Therefore, I conclude
that to the State at least, nothing will be saved here
but something lost. - -
I think that the positions laid down above, and tne
conclusions drawn therefrom, are incontrovertible.
Then my object is accomplished.
But as I wish to deal fairly, 1 will follow "Econo
my"'" to the end of the Chapter. Perhaps he may fi
nally make out some saving.
The only remaining estimate of public expense
which he does or can make, is in relation to the pay
of Jurors, aud the officers attending on them. If the
J urors should not longer be detained at each term, in
the event of the adoption of the proposed system than
they are now, according to the present system, it fol
lows that the saving to the Counties would be equal
to half of the amount which the Jurors now cost.
But does any mau suppose that three Jury Courts
even, held by Judges, can perform what six Courts
now do, in the same length of time? x et "Econo
my" supposes that they can, with one day added to
the contemplated extra term. . Owing to the fact,
that the time of Juries is frequently eonsumed in
deciding the same case, where an appeal rs taken, it
cannot be denied that the consumption of time by
one Jury would be saved, if jurisdiction of the case
were possessed only by one Court. And thus some
meagre, vfry meagre sum might be saved. , But is this
the only reason for abolishing J ury , trials in the
bounty Courts Ik is the cheapest thing always tne
best? 1 have learned differently, i
Mr. Editor, it is, more easy to complain than to de
fendmore easy to find fault than tc make perfect.
Perhaps, sir, Viat order and decorum do not exist in
some of the County Courts, whieh should mark the
proceedings of all tribunals. Yet for these Courts,
the people, so far as my observation has extended,
have always manifested the highest regard, showu
no contempt for, and have respectnaly, u not quietly
bowed to their decisions. I
It is true, that they frequently appeal from the de
cisionsmade. This is no argument that they are dis
satisfied with them. The truth is people have
but little confidence in law, when nice points are in
volved. They prefer to take all the chances in their
power the more, the better for them, they imagine.
All the litigants in a case are hardly ever satisfied by
the decisions made, cither in the County, Superior or
Supreme Courts. Some one has to be worsted, and
consequently becomes displeased. And men tamely
acquiesce from the force of necessity alone, when
the right of appeal fails them.
A further argument against the reduction of Ju
ry Courts, may be found in the fact, that in propor
tion to the frequency that Grand, Jurors are called
together, so increases the certainty that offenders
against law will be made to answer for their impro
per conduct. And nothing is better calculated to
deter people from the commission of crime, than the
certainty that they . will have to answer therefor.
Again, it is a maxim, that for light and trivial
reasons, it is wrong to change any system of long
standing, when the people have conformed themselves
to its operations. But it is said, that a system sim
ilar to the one proposed, has been adopted in other
States, and has worked well. The system of Juris
prudence in North Carolina, has always been the
boast and pride of her citizens, and the admiration
of others. Perhaps there is no State in the Union,
in which justice is sooner arrived at, and injuries
more speedily redressed. 1 have frequently heard
of the tardy administration of justice, and the recov
ery of just rights, and dues in other btates, butnev
er, in the Old North State, only when innovation
and not reformation is attempted on our Courts.

POSTSCRIPT.
. Tuesday ArttM'odit.
We have kept the Paper open until a late hour,
in the expectation that a vote for Senator would be
had but none has been. By joint consent, however,
the two Houses vote to-morrow. There has been
quite a spicy and excited debate as to the propriety
and right of Mr. Ellis' retaining his seat la the
Legislature since he has been elected Judge. The
decision of the question was cut short by the order,
of the day. .
Kentucky. Official. The Frankfort Com
monwealth, says, that the following is the result in
Kentucky :
Taylor and Fillmore, - 66,)27
Cass and Butler, 49,743
Majority for Taylor and Fillmore. 17,184
This statement does not include the returns from
the counties of Perry and Letcher. They have not
yet reach the Secretary's office, and will be excluded
in the official count. The vote in these two counties
has been, we suppose, very close.

"I'LL SIGN THE PLEDGE."
The following beautiful and touching story was
related by Dr. Schnebly, of Maryland, at a recent
meeting held in New York to hear the experience
of twentv reformed drunkards :
A drunkard, who had run through his property,
returned one night to his unfurnished home. He
entered his empty hall anguish was gnawing at his
heart-strings, and language is inadequate to express
his agony as he entered his wife's apartment, and
there beheld the victims of his appetite, his lovely
wife and darling child. Morose and sullen, he seat
ed himself without a word; he could not speak, he
could not look upon them. The mother said to the
little angel by her side, ! Come, my child, it i.time
to go to bed ;" and that little babe, as she was wont,
knelt by. her mother's lap, and gazing wistfully into
the face of her suffering parent, like a piece of chis
elled statuary, slowly repeating her nightly orison ;
and when she had finished, the child, (but four year3
of age.) said to her mother, "Dear ma, may I not
offer up one more prayer?'7 " Yes, yes, my sweet
pet, pray." And she lifted up her tiny hands, clos
ed her eyes, and prayed : " O God ! spare, oh spare
my dear papa!" That prayer was wafted with elec
tric rapidity to the throne of God. It was heard on
high it was heard on earth, lhe responsive
" Amen" burst from the father's lips, and his heart
of stone became a heart of flesh. Wife and child
were both clasped to his bosom, and in penitence he
said, " My child, you have saved your father from
the grave of a drunkard. I'll sign ttse pledge."

Report or TiiB Committee1 of Visitation.
THE undersigned, having been appointed a Com
millee. of Visitation, al. the late Examination of the
pupils of the Warrenton Female Institute, are
prompted by a sense of justice and duty, to bear pub
lic testimony to the distinguished excellence of the
exercises and the high merits of the Institution.
Forty Classes, comprising between 60 and 70 Young
Ladies, compose the School.
The Examination was conducted in the presence
of a large and intelligent audience. . It continued
through two days, and embraced every branch ot
Learning, belonging to an accomplisned female ed
ucation, lhe exercises gave gratifying proof ot lhe
eminent qualifications and attainments of the In
btruclors, aud the uncommon progress and proficien
cy of the pupils. ..
A promptness and accuracy of statement, with
readiness of explanation, and a clear comprehension
ot principles with a thorough understanding of their
application, evinced the skill, fidelity, and efficiency
of the I eachers, and furnished the highest testimo
nial of lhe diligence, attention, and scholarship 01

course of English Education, Mathematics, Belles
Lettres, Philosophy, Physiology, Chemistry, Geolo
gy, Botany, A ncient and Modern- Languages, and
Ethics, had been taught with rare improvement and
happy success.
The exhibition of Music, Painting and embroid
ering, manifested the competency of the Instructor,
and the success of the Students. System, order and
rule, pervade and govern every Department of the
Institution. ,
The Faculty seem to have labored with happy
success, iti the improvement' of the mind, the refine

morals. J ' .
The intellectual faculties are trained and develop
ed while the qualities of the; heart are cherished and
elevated, thus rendering Female Education, a harmo
nious union of knowledge, fee li rig 's rid Virtue, and
Female culturpiwhat jt shall be, a delicate lype of

we would mention lhe conferring a Diploma and
Gold Medal upon the Graduate, Miss Frances D.
Faison, of Duplfn County, 'and lhe gratifyingproof
given of her rare attainments, comprising thorough
and extensive discipline of mind, with lhe polite and
ornamental accomplishments..
We then, as patrons of the School, and friends of
Education, take pleasure in recommending the Insti

rpHE NINETEENTH TERM will commence
Jl on the 15th of January, 1849.
In this Institution, Boys are prepared for any Col
lege in the United Stales, or for the various profes
sions and duties of life. The ablest and most expe
rienced Instructors are employed in the several De
partments of lhe School ; and no pains or expense
has been spared which is necessary to place the Aca
demy in the front rank of the high Schools of lhe
Soulh. The healthy location .of the Village, its fa
cility of access by the Raleigh and Gaston Rail Road,
its refined and intelligent society, and excellent
Church privileges, all combine to render the situa
tion for an Academy for Boys, peculiarly desirable.
All Students who do not reside in the families of
their parents, are required to board in the family of
the Principal, who exercises over them the care and
control of a parent. They are not permitted to visit
lhe Village unless accompanied by one of the teach
ers, or by the special permission of 'the Principal
Every boarding student is required, after night fall,
to be present not only at his boarding House, but al
so in his own appropriate room ; and is not even al
lowed to attend Church at night, except in Gompany
with the Teachers. No boy of immoral or vicious
habits is admitted into the School ; or, if, after en
trance, any one proves to be pernicious in his exam
ple, is he suhered to remain lor one moment longer,
than he is found to be incorrigible. These are a few
of the imperative laws of the Academy, under the
faithful execution of which, it is almost impossible
that the morals of any boy can be impaired in War
renton ; and yet, it has became fashionable, in seve
ral quarters, to croak of the immorality and dissipa
tion of Villages, as if a boy, at all times under the
watchful eye of a faithful Inslructor, were liable to be
corrupted by them. An experience in leaching, for
eighteen or twenty years, in both town and country,
has served to satisfy the Principal of this Academy,
that the moral conduct of boys at School depends not
no much upon any particular location, as upon the
industry, vigilance, firmness and fidelity of Ike

" The Wrong End of the Telegraph" A
gentlemau called at our office yesterday and rela
ted a comical little incident that occurred 10 nim
at Detroit. He had just come down from Green
Bay and reached Detroit, on his way here, before
sufficient returns of the late election had been
received to determine the grand result. On the
morning, however, on which he was preparing to
leave, news was received, but he had not heard
it. Dfisirmg to pay his respects to Gen; ass,
whom he believed to be elected, he inquired the
way to his residence, and, on hearing it, asked
some one apparently employed about the premises
whether the General was at home. Receiving
an affirmative answer, he said
"Well, I suppose we can congratulate the
General on his election tothe Presidency." ,
" What's lhat you say 1"
' Whv. -we mar congratulate the General
on"
Before the sentence could be completed, the
Detroit gentleman said.
"Look here, mister, you must have got Iwll of
the wrong end of the telegraph! '
Our informant did not ' call" on the General,
but turned round and exhibited his retiring skirts.
